The famous fony-acre rock, or the flat rock as it Is celled by o'hers. in Soeth Carolina, has the pput of a barefoot upon It. The imprcs-ion is very plain end looks as if ii had been mad- by a bare foot. Now, Mr. Little h;'s seen this many a time, as has everybody who has visited the famous reck. While in Warren county he was shewn another bin flat rock, not $o larce as ihe famous South Carolina one. to be nre. but apparently of the s.in.e variety of rock, and roii its face, too, is the it;iresion of a big bare foot. The peop!e in tha. neich borhood told Mr. Little that it was Inlieved to lie tbe : evil's t r it-;;. r.rd as be knew the track on the South Carolina rock was thoucht in that nfiphb.M-iniod to be one of t!e t)ld Ilov's tracks.

He found, that the tracks are tf the same size, running In t.he same direction, ami the North Caro lina one Is a track from the left foot and the South Carolina one is from oiution asking all the irtachers of jthe couuty to preach a temperance :vriuou at regular inttrvais.

Having his mouth too full to talk and fearing to open it lest some of he sinners therein escape, hewas pit- to the expedient of merelv making an argumentative grunt.
