The oil toil hud been bought by samples , from the ootsitle of the hale, as all . Sutton is. When the hale reached the mill that was to consume it, nd 0eued, its black heart was dm Mt i covered imtule.

Kvery bale of cotton can lie tnuvd luck to the field iu which it grew with uuerring certainty, yet a few men have not learned this and will oc casionally try to cheat." Thia calls to mind the experience that Mr. J. M. Fairley hail years ago. He ImmiM two bales of eot tou from accitaiu man iu the coun ty and ahipied it. When thebaic were opened they were found to be very iuferior on the Inside, and came back on Mr. Fairley. He wan greatly indignant, and ls-sides mak ing the man lake the rot ion back ud pnyiug the costs, gave him a good long piece of mind on the character of such a transaction. The neit seanou the name umu came to Mr. Fairley to well a bale. "Xo," aaid the latter, "I cau't deal with you, I'm afraid of you; you know what you did hist year." "Now, Mr. Fairley," was the re ply, "you know I've got too much seiiae to try to fool you n;;stiu. If I wanted to put up a Job on any body, I'd le a mighty big fool to try it ou the same mail twice." That seemed no reasonable, that II r. Fairley raised the bid a little mid took the man's cotton. Not long after it wus shipicd Mr. Fair ley got notice that hale No. , iu lot No. , was water-packed. He traced it Up, and imagine his sur prise to tiud that it was the identi cal bale that he had iMiught from his fair-talking man.

Aud that the damage suit is not without power to heal wounds, ia illustrated by story told by Maj. John I. Shaw, the well known counsel of the Seaboard in thia section. A colored bmkeuian had been killed, aud it fell to Maj. Shaw'a lot to try to console the widow and to settle with her if possible without a suit. He prepared himself with a big bundle of one dollar bills, two huu dred or so of them, and called. She waa at first not to be consoled at all, but filially agreed to compro mise for so much, uud Maj. sbaw paid the amount iu one dollar bills. It waa a tremendous pile or money for her, and she handled it with wide-eyed satisfaction.

Attempts at cheating in this way are much less freiiieut than they used to la. Iu days gone by it was not uncommon to find big locks in the center of baled. Two bales were once aold on this market that had lieeu s.iud packed. They came from the Hand section of South I'urolina, and were the old fashioned long bales, aud weighed like thunder!

Her reply was sincere, but a plenty. "No, boss," she aaid, "I don't think I'll ever marry again, but if I do I shorcly will marry another railroad nig ger." We quote from the Red Creek, N. Y., Herald: "Hound hand and foot and gag ged, the maiden was put into the gtiuuysack, and, unable to move or scream, felt herself lieing carried down a (light of stairs, put into a buggy and then driven dowu the street Ineffectually she tried to rebsae herself from the gag. Alas! she was bound too securely. Fi nally the conveyance stoped. Site waa ainiin carried into a building, fainting and gasping lor breath; the sack was taken from her head. The villain, still masked, took the ir!ur from her mouth, hiseyes gleam ing like roala of fire through his black mask, released her and hissed thouuh his tightly clenched teeth, 'There, my pretty bird, scream and yell as loud as you like, no human ear will ever reach you.

'o pow er on earth can save me; tio one will look for me here,' and the poor girl fainted." It's an old saying that the ugliest men get the prettiest wivea, and the alleged fact ia explained by the supiMised fact that "opposite at tract." Up in New York a prize fiirhtcr whose face is so ugly his as sociates call him "The Iog," has just been married to a pretty girl, and wheu asked bow be mauageu it explained: "It am t looks that win a girl. It's what a guy can do, what he can make good at, that gets 'em." Who will say that "Ibe img" has not reached the true solution of the question! The Newlork World says that this Is true Dar witiism philosophy, aud that "fit test to survive is fittest to wive. The most wicked or most cunning fighter among cave meu got the nick of the cave girls. The young Indian won in war or in chase the rieht to matrimony.

Governor Jeff Davis of Arkansas, savs a contemporary, prides him seif on the fact that he ia from the country, (letting on a train the other day, according to Represent ative Garner of Texas, the rover- nor aiet a crowd of "Hill liilhea," j aa people from the oiouutaiua of Arkansas are locally known. j "How are you, Jeff I" asked the rarions friends of the governor. j "Tolerable," answered the go. eroor, after greeting the crowd. "How's Mrs. Davis!" some one asked. "She's got a pretty bad cold," the governor answered. "She was out in the rain making soap and caught cold. She never could aland for store soap." The Union county doctors have a steel plated trust, the house rent ers of Monroe have a f'mntual understanding," the farmers have combined to beat their euemiea, the merchanta are getting up an association, and even some of the ladies of Mouroe have combined to control the time for social visiting. Let 'er roll! The solicitors for old line life in surance companies say that Mouroe is a town ridden to death by frater nal orders. It ia a fact that few men can be found here who do not belong to one or more "orders," and not a few belong to half a dozen. Mr. W. H. I'hiler is an ex ception. When asked the other day what fraternal orders he be longed to, be made an unexpected answer. "Why," said he, "I don't belong to any. Iou't belong to any thing but the church; and I hold that that organization is enough for a man to belong to. If he will join it aud live up to all its obligations, he won't need anythiug else. And this multiplying of societies and organizations tends to weaken the church, not ouly with nou members hut with professing christian. Mauy church members will work like beavers for their lodge but won't turn a hand for their church." Mr. W. J. I'igg of Chesterfield county sends the The Journal word about a big fox chase which oc curred down there the other day. He says: "Ou theuightof the lsth, the champion fox hunters of Jef ferson caught a large fox, and it was the old Missouri sheared tail fox that the Armfield boys turned loose last year after shearing his tail.

New Jersey is a State said to have sold itself to corporations; Rhode Island, a State where the suffrage is restricted, aud where the "bust ness element" run things, is bought and sold at every election, accord ing to au article by Lincoln Btetl- eres in McClure's, by direct money corruption of the voters themselves.

Addicks has just given np hope again of lieing elected this session, but the statement is made that he will be a candidate until election or death settles it. Such spectacles in these States where the people are supposed to lie "advanced," and w here the two great parties are pretty evenly divided, do not well support the idea that we need two evenly balanced parties in the South.

To show bow sentimeut over the line seems to be mellowing, it is recalled that when this idea of returning the flags was recommended by Presi dent Cleveland, it caused a great furor.

Thrice she snatched the little ones from the very gates of death, but each time she returned to the self appointed sacrifice, impelled by what she had convinced herself was her fearful duty. When the charge of murder was rend to Mrs. Ioiix aud the words, "with malice," were pronounced, she interrupted: "I k i 1 1-1 them, but it was not through ill-will. It was because I loved them, and did not want them to live aud sutler as I have suf fered." Her husband saw her in the jail last Saturday for the first time since the tragedy.

My part of it will soon I over, aud you must try and live it dowu. Time will enable you to get over it." Mrs. Loux says she had long bad iu mind the death of her children.

AU our business time, brains, money and energies are devoted to the horse and mule trade alone, so that we may be able to buy cheapest and sell cheapest We want to make you our customer for Ufa; to do so we must treat you right in every trade. It is a duty you owe to your wife and children, heirs and assigns, administrators and executors to come and ex amine and price our stock before you buy. E. A. ARMFIELD & SONS.
