Stringtown, you double fisted beef eater, vo'.i think we don't know you but we do. We know you are not the correspondent at Stringtown, and you stole a march on ub last week.

We like you and if it don't make any dilf°rence we won't object to you getting on our wagon this fall. You have started right, just keep coming.
There are some people who try every way to get their name in the paper, and when they get it there they go to the editor and raise a kick and give the correspondent fits. Now we will not object to the truth. We will admit that work and us fell out a long time ago, but as for laying around and waiting for dead men's shoes we are not in it. And as for work we have done more in one week's time than some people have in a life time.

These are two great evils which we are subject to here in New Market.

You had best be careful. Mr. Wide Awake, If big A1 Taylor goes after you, you will think the devil has got hold of you. He is getting tired of your nonsensical lies. Give us the news state the facts.

It is bounded on the east by Peter Fhnu's farm, Blair's ford and Oak Ilill cemetery on the north by Black creek or the west by the revine just-east of ivlt. Zion church on the south by Capt. Talbert's and Longview. It is a long and narrow square and contains some very line scenery, such as babbling brooks, graceful glens, vine-clad vales, and fairyhaunted forests redolent with the perfume of stink factory stenches,
Young lady, I am astonished at your incivility. That gentleman was not aiming to follow you. He heard that you wanted to see him and he waE giving you a chance to to so. You treated him discourteously.frigidly,turning your baca to him in the most uncivil manner. You, no doubt, thought he was prancing around in order to make a mash on you. Ah, lady, you were very unkind to think so, but—no matter. Say. Mifs, I want you to know that this gentleman is courting me and only me. I hope you will be a good little Hog Heaven girl hereafter, and will not have to be reprimanded again by
Au.nt Polly Packh.

The Dr. and Hazelup are both great talkers, they sat down and began to tell their experiences as medicine men, and had quite a talk on the subject, and then they got their cythes and they put them on the wrong side, and when they began to mow, Hazelup nearly cut his head off.
