Last Saturday, a better portion of the citizens there, af ter consulting with the revenue , col lector and other officials, gave a grand barbecue at a point fifteen miles north of Paris, to which all the moonshiners were invited, and also United States Senator Harris, Representative Atkins, Collector Patterson and Marshal Wal dron. Senator Harris made a speech to the moonshiners showing them the disgrace brought upon the state by their course, and said that vigorous measures would be enlorced to put a stop to their illicit work. Finally an agreement was made that all would come into Paris within two weeks, surrender their stills and give bond for their appearance at the next term of the United States court. ses, refining stock, more steady but quiet; grocery grades quiet and unchanged.
