The last issue of the Durham

C. Hackney, cimtains the following:
The Senior cftitor is in luck. He
received the pictures ol'Jtwo buxom
lasses, hailing from Wilson, N. O,
last week, with a request to make a
selection if either suited. One gave
her age to be 17 years, weight 150,'
the other was 20, weight 1.50. We
will have to give brother Joe Dan
iels credit, for this piece of luck."
We beg to be excused from receiv
ing credit for this act of Wilson's
"buxom lasses." We know noth
ing of the transaction, and are loath
to 'believe any of fur lasses would
make so unladylike a request, of
even -so handsome and captivating
a young man as brjither Hackney.
