Th* .Savwn \mny LkjI com¬
ments of! an «dit^al taken from one
of our columns la^t week in the follow
iniz manner: “Hyrd, wluit. do yoo
mean ! Do you think we are going
take this continually.'’
Well bro., we mean just what we
say, and don't think that we would be
saying itiore than is due to you it we
were U< repeat if. an l tin mid advise Mr
Ot)to «it ddwn if' i.e can't st ind it, Uf-*
til he cools off. -
Mr J itneK McVeigh deserves much
credit for the ueat mannor in which he
has gotten tip ;t of Pierce county,
showing distinctly the county lines,
trict lities, Kivern, Knilraods & c, in.a
much neater style *han has ever been
dotte before.
We were hottoretl with an invitation
a few evenings since to attend or
sweet occasion, (candy pulling)/
out of town, and took pleasuj/
vailing ourselves <»t tho « i
and hereby tender r
thanks to the host and h/7^d for their
kiudness, not only but to till
who pnrlieipated. i*t m .
We heard cl dent long j
a noti-rt not
since, remark that he t stopping o
standing tel ver in a short one tiifie cvemn<r wilh in a rdilrty 1 t% i t ut and five ot a while ho- j
company men,
one taken from his j *rson ;i revolver j
and said that he was ;oing to shoot a
a candidate, arid out d 3o, tht're were

We understand fiat one* of our
fricn.ls got ofl\mded Jthe location of
his anmuiCeuicnc Lst week, and we
assure him that it »yas unavoida
bid and not intentionalv. The reason
ot it appearing where it. ’id, was this,
we did not reeoivd it until ve were go¬
ing to press, and then, t< give our
friend as much time as possi»le, we un
locked our tbrin and removed a lacal
Svhere it was most convenient fod plac
edit in itstead. The announcement
will appear lltift week in its proper | Wee.
Our ellieient Tax Collector infirm*
ua that he will h:\vc to chise his b >>ka
last of this week, and will Vie eompeLed
to issue ti las against det-mlteis. He
lias already indulged you longer than
the law prescribes ; and should not you
settle at once ami save him the un¬
pleasantness of having to run you to
unnecessary cost.
We were in Savannah last Monday
and ealled in at several
of the most prominent business houses

establishment ot 1. ti. Bolshaw , , , s on
St. Julian street. f i v nost* in search

it to their interest to examine his stock
belore going “ n further.
We were pleased to form the ac¬
quaintance oi‘3Ir. G .M. Mills of Lib¬
erty county, in town this week. He is
