Luckiess Dee Watt of Mississippi.

, Dee Watt, who lives just over the Kemper line in Sumter county, is the most unlucky individual we heard of in many moons. Last spring he had 100 head of fine hogs and 1,000 bushles of corn, and he began feeding them, with the expectation of soon having a carload of fat porkers to put on the market. Just about the time he wds getting ready to ship cholera broke out among them, and all but 26 died. During one of the first cold spells we had he killed 1,500 pounds of those that escaped'the cholera, and that spoiled. He is now minus his bogs and 1,000 bushels of corn.—Dekalb Pxeas,
