A few favored localities have had refresh ing showers, but not in sufficient quantity to soften the ground for plowing in grain. Tbe mnob puffed show of Doris exhibited in Eufauia on Satnrdsy last. Tho riding was simply repetition of its predcoessors— baldly so good. Tho trapeze per- fotmsnce, however, was very fine: tho menagerie also wss good, both in Tariety and condition. It Is also well filled with a set of sharp ers and swindlers, who do not scru ple to ply their vooatlon as such, on the ignorant and unsuspeotlng. Several persons were victimized while In Eufsula in small sums. Such Itinerant thieves should be punished in every Instance when detected. Tbe health of our community is improving to the gratification of all. Sore eyes seem to follow the chills, produced probably from the influence ot tbe winds. Mr. J. E. Methvin btd the mis fortune to lose two valuable mules one day last week, both died witk in half an hour of eaoh other and apparently from same cause. Mr! Methvin thinks they were poisoned.
