PIC NIC AT Ur. VANN-8. On last Saturday morning, after being satisfied that our “boss” was going to re main in town, and would not be on hand to watch us, we decided to respond to nu invitation to attend a picnic to bo given nonr the residence of Dr. Vann, about 16 miles from town, and after a good deal of persuasion and kind talk a brother typo consented to noooinpany us on our jour ney. We made an early start and had quite n pleasant rido through the eonntry, reselling our destination about eleven o’clock. On onr arrival we found quite a number of ladies and gentlemen assem bled, all seemed to bo happy, enjoying themselves in every conceivable manner in the shade of tho overhanging boughs of the majestio trees which adorn the beautiful grove selected for this festive occasion. Our urrival was so late in the day that wo had not been there n great while before tho ladies, one aud all, began busying themselves spreading tho doth upon the spot selected for the occasion, aud laying thereon dishes of edibles so vast in variety and so delicate in construction that it would lie too tedious a task for our feeble pen even to attempt to describe with any hope of success. In a few min utes everything was announced in readiness and all wore invited to partake of tho feast, which was done, no second’invitation being necessary to induce the many whoso appetites were sharpened by the delightful air and verdant w oodland, and tho deli cious viands from that moment began dis appearing with astonishing rapidity. Af ter the bountiful repast was finished and tho ololh and dishes had been cleared away and deposited in their former recep tacles, then did the pic-nicers again retire to the ever welcome shade of the green foliage, and enjoyed the balauoo of tho day in a pleasant dunce upon a platform which had been prepared for the purpose beneath the brunches of a noble old beach tree. Everything passed off harmoniously during the entire day; and as time passed swiftly away, ere long wo were reminded that night-full was approaching, and our journey must be resumed. And after bid ding adieu to our many friends of former days, and the new acquaintances we had formed during the day, wo went to work to find our comrade, who liy this time, i had become enamored with one individual, j Ilia few minutes, however, wo found him, and was soon on the road thinking of the ; happy scenes behind. Suffice it to say the picnic was a grand success, and after returning onr thanks to many friends for courtesies extendod, wo leave the subject alone. After leaving tho festive scenes, we wended onr way to Tbomasville, a distance of fifteen miles. There we met many of our old friends, and spent a fuw hours very pleasantly ;but by this time ’twas grow - ing late, and our comrade being a citizen of Tbomasville, we resigned ourself to his keeping for the night. As wo aro u pious youth, it is hardly necessary to lay the programme of Sunday before you.

The roads,generally, arc iuAdgood condition as could be expected immediately after such an ex cess of ratn fall. We call attention of tho town authorities to the very bad condition of tho street leading out to Taliokas, tind tho West bridge.

Ot llFl-nl .Mill list nli'M true history of tho late civil war has just been received by Sir. O. T. Terry of Quitman, and ho is now ready to furbish i them to any aud nil who wish to mid this valuable and interesting work to their libraries. Surely tho officers and soldiers who served under General Johnston, in whom they so much confided, and to whom they wero so much attached, will bo eager to obtain one of his books, which will bring fresh to memory their few com forts and ninny privations. There is none bettor qualified to judge of tho merit of the tho worth and the truthfulness of its contents than tho soldiers that marched and fought nt his command-. And cer tainly to thorn who ooquited themselves witlis ro much honor, the truths ooming from their commander will be rnoro inter esting than to those who wore not en gaged.

In those tight times, when it is necessary to husband our resources, it is a pleasure if a nook can be found where we can save anything, more especially when it is money that can be saved. Such a nook wo now propose to call attention to, and our Indy friends, as well as the male portion of our readers, will do well to make a note of the fact that Kaytou is offering goods nt lire and let lire prices. He offers his goods nt a small per (-outage above Now York cost, thereby enabling all purchasers to make larger purchases than heretofore. His goods are all new, and being purchased for cash ho can offer superior inducements. As he keeps no liquors, ladies can call a his store as well ns any in Quitman, and be as well attended to. Remember you oaunot hurt yourself by calling at Ivny ton’s New York Btoro, and may save con siderable money by doing so. 2t A Woman Shoots a Brnaian.—Tbo New Orleans Republican says that a few nights ago the residence of Mr. Weiss, in that city, was entered by two burglars. The gentleman was not at home, and his wife was iu bed. Tho fellows handled her roughly, binding her and threatening to kill her if she did not instantly inform them where the valuables were stored. She reluctantly complied, and the rascals Htolo about eight hundred dollars’ worth of property. Having procured the articles and some money, one of them unbound the lady, and tho two robbers hastly re tired, but their movements were not so rapid as the lady’s. The instant their backs were turned Mrs. Weiss secured a pistol aud deliberately fired at one of tho retreating figures, and her aim was good, as subsequent events proved. One of the villains returned as she fired, and seized hold of her, but, her clothing being thin, she succeeded in releasing herself, then ran to the front door and cried for help. On this both burglars escaped. On mak ing an examination of the premises. De tective Pecora discovered that the pistol had done its duty, as blood was found in several places, and there wero sigus that tho wounded man stumbled over tho stove, either iu consequence of the wound or be cause of his haste. A reirrr.An clergyman of Buffalo re turned from an extended journey a few days since, and jnst as he alighted from the cars and was receiving tho congratu lations of a crowd of delighted pension ers who had assembled to greet him, an inebriated individual followed in his wake, seized him by the hand, and exclaimed; “Well, good bye, old pard, I'm goiDg further, and shall keep up the same old drunk for a while yet, but you’re pretty well sobered up, and you had better keep so, 1 'spect, as drinkiu's rough when a fel low’s ’round home. But you know how to go on a gallus spree and have a rum time just as good as any pard I ever had, and you has my respect. Day day, old buster.” Before the astonished clergyman could gather his wandering with the hail fellow was off, leaving a terrible scandal for tlu> delectation of thegossipsof Buffalo, and a prospective candidate for tho lunatic asylum. A dog was accidentally present during divine service in a Scotch kirk, where the worthy minister was in the habit of speak ing very loud in the sermon, and, in fact, when he got warmed with his subject, of shouting almost at the top of his voice. The dog, who, in tho early part had been very quiet, became quite excited, as is not un common with some dogs when hearing a noise; and from whipping as the speaker’s voice rose loud and strong, at last began to bark and howl. The minister, naturally much nnnoyod at the interruption, called upon the beadle to put out tho dog; and he at once expressed his readiness to obey the order, but could not resist the tempa tion to look up to the plupit, and to say, very significantly, “Ay, ay sir; but indeed it was yoorsel’ began it.” Santa Anna and thk, Texas Pacific Railroad. —ln a late number of the Brownsville Rancher <>, it is intimated that tho returned of Santa Anna to Mexico is not without great political signitt ranco. In other words, that he lias been consti tuted the agent of the Texas Pacific railroad, to negotiate the purchase in behalf of the company of large mining interests in Sonora, (Jhihnunua, New Leon, and indeed, tho entire tier of North ern Mexican States lying on the American side of the Sierra Madre. It is well known that these mines are the richest on the continent. Hereto fore the Mexican coinage of ore derived from them! has been done in England. It has been the means of establishing commercial relations be tween tho com>t~ieH of many hundreds of millions of dollars. The bullion is sent to England and returned m the shape .of coftoh fabrics, prints and colored goods.- This trade properly belongs to the United States, and before the inva :ion of Mexico in 1846, a large portion oi it came here. It in now sought to divert it into logi'tfrnato channels again. the New York Sun'ft Utah correspon dent says'/ “Salt Lake is some miles from the city. I visited it. The name is apropos. It isn’t necessary to embalm a man to make him keen if he has ever been soaked in that water. One teaspoonful once a day taken internally would turn a man into corned beef hi less than a week. Mashed potatoes dropped into the lake come up codfish baHs inside of three minutes, and an old boot leg becomes mackerel in two hours. Three barrels of that water make one barrel of salt—that is, according chemical analysis, My judgement, unsupported, would load me to sup pose, from tasting it, that one barrel of water would make throe barrels of salt.” The ITcralA says the birds have made Porno j rich. According to news just received from Lima tho guano deposits, as ascertained by Pe ruvian engineers and the officers of tho British war vessel, the Peivel, amount to $7,650,500 cu bic metres, This may be worth at least a hun drd million dollars, and probably much more.

The supplicant was kneeling beside his mother; the palms of his up lifted hands wore reverently pressed to gethor; his rosy ohoek spoke of health, aud his mild blue eye was upturned with tho expression of devotion and pence. Tho portrait of young Rupert was much prized by the painter, who hung it on his study wall, and called It “111110001100." Years passed awav, and tho nrtist bo enmo nu old man. Still the picture hung there. He had often thought of making oouutor part— tho picture of “Guilt”—-lm had not found tho opportunity.

Evidently believing that all wHhki end right nt last, she assumed to be resigued to tho separa tion until last Friday afternoon, whon, while on an errand," Rhe saw her lover deeply engrossed with tho attractions of a young lady with whom he was walking.
