He suspected one of the negroes oh' the place named Dick, and last Saturday he caught him with some of the meat. He immediately col lared him and started to town, bringing the meat and the negro in the samo wagon. When by Mr. Boswortlt’s place, just on the edge of the city, the negro succeeded in freeing one hand and throwing the meat out, and as it was dark, it was not noticed. About n block further on he got loose entirely, and jumped out. Walker gave chase, and by the aid of a neighbor succeeded in capturing and arrest ing him. He is now where pork will not bother him for some time to come. We, the undersigned, sgiee to olose onr stores on Thursday next, Thanksgiving Day: SCHUMPERT A RONEY, F. A. GYLES, 'JOHN M. COKER, J.

Committee. Republican please copy. A Saucy Negro. Saturday night Mrs. Bugg Chap man was called to her door by a negro, who said there were some pigs in her yard. Mrs. Chapman secured some help and drove them out and then wont back to her work. As she went through the hall to her room her daughter said some one was playing on the piano.

'Since beginning the Bargain Store, many rumors and guesses bow long it will last have made their rounds, bat not until my re cent visit to bay my second fall stock bare the above utterances been used by competitors. But we are far from being bust ed. The Bargain Store to day stands on solid footing, and the purchase of the second stock ought to, and tells the talcs with quite a different result. We claim to-day, in less than twelve months of its existence, to do the largest cosh business of any Dry Goods House in Southwest Georgia, and we also claim that we have opened an avenue for the Americas trading people to get good goods at less prices than they were ever offered before. No mat ter, busted or not busted, we will continue to sell you goods at bust ed prices, and we wish to call your attention that the goods recently purchased on my last trip are com ing in, and will surpass anything in price and quality ever ofiered before. Gome early and get the first selection. I will call the especial attention of the ladies to my large and as- sorted stock of Cloaks and Dol mans, which I offer, owing to the scarcity of money, at half their value. Owing to the soareity of room and the meagre facilities for show ing the goods, we will offer especial bargains in Ladies and Misse9 trimmed and nntrimmed hats. Also feathers, flowers and millinery trim mings of all descriptions. It is useless and impossible to mention tho diflerent specialties and bar gains which we offer.
