We find the following in
Cotton Planters Journal, of Mem-

gressman, Judge J. M.
"Congressman Griggs, of Geer-
has fully vindicated South-
ern table fare. A New England
congressman had the audacity
criticise the Southerner’s manner
of living, and he did it very ch|v-
erly, too. Several members of
the house who represent districts
in the Southern States attempted
to reply to the taunt, but none j
succeeded so well as Mr. (friges,

An Enjoyable Occasion.
On last Friday night the young
people of our town enjoyed a de-
lightful entertainment at the h< UUe
of Mr. and Mrs. West Brow n, giv-
en in honor of Miss Annie Cart-
ledge who left Monday for Phoe-
nix, Fla., when; s! 10 will resume
her studies,
Miss Annie has been spending
some time with the family of her
uncle, Judge L. CL Cartledge, and
while here, has become a general
favorite of the young people of
Morgan, and we join them in wish¬
ing for her, unbounded success m
her studies.
