What 1 Transpiring Around and About Vs, In Town and Connty The Movement mil Dolours of Peo ple Ton Know. Etc. The snow Sunday was the heaviest in this section in five or six years. It is learned that Capt. W. II Snow and his party have sold over one hundred Modern Barns in Georgia, up to date. On Thanksgiving Dy the Methodist Conference at Greenville contributed $ 118.42 to the Oxford Orphan Asylum. The ladies can find felt hats and other millinery at reduced prices at Mrs. John T. Britt's Millinery Store. Oxford Ciiaper of Riyal Arch Ma sons regular meeting second Monday night in each month at the Masonic Hall, Oxford. No matter how narrow minded and insignificant a man may be he usually has imagination enough to get stuck on himself. We have received a handsome invi tation to the silver wedding of Dr. and Mrs W. S. Black, on Wednesday Decem ber 9th, at y o'clock p. m., at the Orphan Asylum. We ar raquasted to announce that the Register of Deeds now has in hand the Pension Warrants for the State, and all in Granville entitled to the same will call and get them. We are under obligations to Rev . W. W. Walker for some nice celery. There is nothing nice that grows in a garcien in this section of the country that Brother Walker doesn't raise. Mr. John Fleming, of Hester's, has yet on hand some of his crop of tobacco raised in 1859 sound and all right. We suppose the old gentleman shuts down on it with a great deal of pleasure . The Southern Exposition closed Sat urday, and Gen. Chilton and Mr. Patrick each was presented with a gold pen. Capt. J. B. Hunter, of Granvill, made the pres entation to Mr. Patrick in his usuil happy style . It is announced that Mr. James W. White, our excellent Tail r, and Miss Better Hart, niece of Mrj. Alex. Crews, will be married on Wednesiiy, December 9th, at 11 o'clock a. m , in the Methodist Church. The difference betvean kicking yourself for a mistake you have made and having another mm do it, is that the other man has a different view from yours about the amount of correction you de serve, and his kick conveys that view. As the shooting season is on, it's worth while remembering that any sports man undertaking to cross a fence with a gun at full cock is apt to make it a seri ous business for the un lertaker owing to the difficulty in collecting the remains. Up to date there have been 13,700 direct tax warrants issued aggregating in the neighborhoDd of $300,000. The amount received from the United States government was $404,000. Any claimant, may anply for payment within six years. Several of the sub-bosses are kicking hard against the big bosses of the Oxford & Coast Line Railroad, Is not of so much importance except to the Richmond & Danville Railroad. Give us the connec tion Big Bosses while the little bosses wrangle. There is excitement every day at our warehouses over the lively sales and good prices they ard getting for all grades of tobacco. Remember farmers that Oxford now stands in the front ranks on high averasre price aa I ii leading all. other competitors. Try it and be con vinced. According to the survival-of the fittest theory it would be just the thing to have the petition to kep Dr. II. C. Herndon and A W. Graham from expending $40,000 on 3 miles of Oxford & Coast Line Railroad published in order that a large number of people may know what they have signed. We are sorry that so few of our citi zens were present at the Opera House on Tuesday to hear the admirable address of Dr. G. A. Coggleshall on public roads Those who were present speak in the most complimentary terms of the doctor's ef forts to increase the interest improvement of public roads. The clever E. J. Parish, of Durham, loaned the committee of arrangements of the Fife meeting 100 benches. On behalf of the citizens of Oxford we return him their wannest thanks. Coma over Captain and bring all your friends ani helo us place the banner of Christ in the citadels of wickedness and vic9 . By the way will somebody rise and name the persons who are going to ruu their hands deep down into the towns pockets and squander that $40,000, when two of our most thoroughly honest and economical citizens hive the paying out of t'ae funds. We are am a la-ge nura ber of our citizens who are not willing that $10,000 should be expended on 3 miles of road, and Dr. H. C. Herndon and A. W- Graham Esq., are a.iaong that number. Our devil wonders what some people think of the company playing at Opera House this week. The coroner's jury in the matter of the death of two negro boys about eigh teen years old, who were found dead at Henderson in the snow on Sunday morn ing returned a verdict that they were drunk and froze to death. In the case of McDougald on trial at Fayettevilie for the murder of Conoly, which has been pending for the last two weeks, the jury after staying out all night came in amid the breathless silence of a densely packed court room rendered a verdict of "not guilty. Tiie verdict is said to have been reaaived with surprise by the entire community. C. F. King says the business people of Tipton, a growing town ia the southern portion of Georgia, Saturday presented Captain W. II. Snow a deed to a four thousand dollar farm and a town residence as an inducement to have him locate there and grow tobacco.carrying out his Modern ideas. The proposition was accepted, and a market will be established at Tip ton next summer and factories started. The Modern Barn is ia high clover. "At last, I can eat a good square mea without its distressing me!" was the grate ful exclamation of one whose appetite had been restored by the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, after years of dyspeptic mis ery. A teaspoonful of this extract be fore each meal sharpens the appetite. Evangelist File In Ox lord. This gentleman will commence a se ries of meetings in Oxford on Sunday morning. The Minor Warehouse has been secured aud is being fitted up with stoves and seats. The house is very large and will seat several thousand people. It is expected that immense crowds will be here ta attend the meeting. A splendid choir has been organized and our citizens are looking forward to the meeting with great pleasure. Dyspepsia and Elver Complaint. Is it not worth the small price of 75c. to free yourself of every symptom of these distressing complaints, if you think so call at our store and get a bottle of Shiloh's Vitalizer, every bottle has a printed guarantee on it, use accordingly and it' it does you no good it will cost you nothing. Sold by J P. Stedman. Marriage of Mr. II. T. oycroft to Miss Eelia Lakes. Mr. II. T. Roycroft, one of Granville county's prominent young men, left Wil- kins for Oxford Wednesday, the 25th ult. with his escorts where they took private conveyances to Mr. John Eakes' to join the waiting assembly that had gathered there to witness the marriage ceremony. He was joined to Miss Lelia Eakes, daughter of Mr. John Eakes. She cis a young and beautiful lady with many friends and the guest was iarge. After the ceremony the dining room door was opened and there was a table decorated as beautiful as art could make it and richly spread with all the good things that heart, hand and appetite could de sire, and after all had been served the happy bride and groom with their guests, sixteen in number, took their leave for Oxford where they took the train for Wilkins and were met by many friends and relatives and escorted them to Mr. K. T. Roycroft's, the father of the groom, and after many hearty congratulations the dining room door was opened and the bride and groom with their attendants as follows: Miss Jennie Eakes and Mr. Luther Roycroft; Miss Willie Roycroft and Mr. Tommie Newton; Miss Cora Satterwhite and Mr. Ben Frazier;Miss Denna Lyon and Mr. Bud Frazier; Miss Rachel Coley and Mr. Willie Lyon ; Miss Nannie Lyon and Mr. John Watkins ; Miss Etta Frazier and Mr. J. G. Hall ; Miss Mary Watkins and Mr. Charlie WUkins, entered and did ample justice to the ele grant supper. After the feast the young people adjourned to the par lor where they spent a most delightful time until about 12 o'clock when the crowd dispersed with many good wishes to the young married pair. May their life be as happy as the night was pleas ant and may their pathway be strewn with flowers and may prosperity attend them through life. A. J. A course of P. P.

Some years ago I contracted malaria in its most violent form while living at Newark, N. J. I consulted va rious physicians and took numberless preparations recommended as "sure cures," but it stuck to me like a brother or more like a mother-in-law. 1 finally came South, and while here tried new remedies, said to always cure malaria, and it etiJl stuck to me, and you know the broken down condition I was in when I came to you. You put me to taking your P. P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Po tassium), and I improved rapidly, and am to-day in as good health as I ever was in fact, better. As a remedy for a broken down constitution it has no equal. Yours etc., T. P. Cotti.e. For Corns, Warts and Bnnlons Use only Abbott's East Indian Corn Paint We brag why? Because the Patent Shoe wears longer and keeps in better shape than any other shoe in the market. TRAVELING AKOl'.M). Paragraphic Mention of People Who are Coming and Ooluf. Mr. W. II.

He said he "could not do without the Publtc Letoek, as it was truly the the farmers friend." We had the pleasure ofmeetineon our breaks Friday Mr. E. R. Bagby, of Virginia. He was greatly pleased with prices and will visit our market again. That is right, and bring some of your neighbors along with you, as our market cannot be beat on high averages. The man that beat Brower, Hon Baldy Williams, is now in Washington ready to take his seat on Monday. The 5th District will not be misrepresented this time, as our gallant Baldy Williams is a good worker, a fine speaker and will be a true and faithful representative of his people. The News & Observer says, Capt J. B. Hunter, the gentlemanly Manager of Granville exhibit during the Exposition, has returned home. It was a pleasure to have such a clever and genial gentleman among us for the past two months, and he will always find a welcome in Raleigh when he comes."

He received splendid prices for his tobacco and had his pockets full of "silver wheels" and was as happy and as spry as a "16-year older." Come again, friend Thomas and bring everybody in your "neck of the woods" and our boys will do their best on every pile of tobacco.

The favorable impression produced on the first appearance of the agreeable liquid fruit remedy Sjrup of Figs a few years ago has been more than confirmed by the pleasant experience of all who have used it, and the success of the pro prietors and manufacturers the California Fig Syrup Company. Expression of Esteem. God, in His wisdom, has seen fit to gather unto Himself another one of our truest and best young men. Samuel C. Holmes passed to the great beyond on Thursday Nov. 26th, at 5 o'clock a. m. He had lived in Oxford not quite two years, and during that time his life was the most exemplary. He was courteous, kind, genial and the soul of honor. His friends and those with whom he was as sociated held him in the highest esteem. In the discharge of his duties in business relations, his conduct was always char actirized by gentlemanly bearing, fidelity and truth. His employer and co laborers joined in ascribing to him their commen dation so justly due him. He wil be missed in the store, the community, and the county. While in the prime of young and promising manhood, dread disease claimed him a victim, and through his suffering could be plainly seen the jewel of princeless value his entire resignation to the will of Him "who doeth all things well," and his willingness to face his Maker. How comforting it is to his friends and family, to know, from his own lips, that the Angel of Death found him ready and prepared for the change. The sweet hope of a glorious eternity shown in his face and his end was but the beginning of a blessed existence. We knew him well, and no young man has ever lived in Oxford, whose life was more upright and honorable. Long will the memory of his good name survive him, and stand out as a beacon light to point others into the pathes that lead to a bright er and better world. To his aged father and mother we ex tend our deepest sympathies. We knew him to be a devoted son, counting it his chief joy to minister to the wants of his parents. The life of Samuel C. Holmes, short as it was, was full of good deeds, kindness, tenderness, and unswerving loyalty to duty, honor and truth, and should be emulated by the young men of our country. R. 11. McGuike, B. S.

CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF NESS TRANSACTED. BUSI Convened in Opera House on Monday Morning', with Jndere Winston in the Chair the Grand Jury and His Charge. The November Term of Granville Superior Court convened on Monday morning in the Opera House at 10 o'clock with His Honor Judge R. W. Winston on the bench. Mr. T. D. Waller, Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners had made all necessary arrangements for making the Opera House as comfortable as possible. The jury box is on the right side near the stage and Clerk W. A Bob bitt, with his assistant, Mr. F. B. Wim bish, occupies the left. Sheriff Crews, with his efficient assis tants, Messrs. J. A. Taylor, Leroy Elliott and Monroe Hays, were at their respect ive posts. The Grand J ury is composed of some of our honorable and law-abiding citi zens, as follows: Dr. A. J. Dalby, fore man, L. H. Moss, W. C. Currin, J. O. Pitchford, C. H. Usry, J. L. Newton, T. W. Stovall, Ralph Currin, H. M. Hester, J. R. Wilson, W. E. Neville, S. T. Minor, W. P Wilkinson, J. S. Eakes, George Parham, Haywood Oakley, B. B. Overby and L. E. Amis. As soon as they were impanelled Judge Winston in his usual plain, comprehensive manner laid down he law affeciing the different offences against the peace and dignity of the State, among some of the most important of which was the sale of liquor to minors, and spoke of the many evils that grew out of the sale of liquor, whether it was adulterated with concentrated lye in or der to make it hold a bead or otherwise. In speaking of the Louisiana Lottery he said it wra3 a cancer upon the body poli tic, and referred to the many devices now in use to defraud the people, among which was the wire fence sharper who with a slick tongue gets the farmers to sign notes which are mere shells and hence the farmers are robbed under a speculative scheme. He here admon ished the people not to put their names on a paper unless they knew what the ef fect would be. In referring to the crime of bigamy he said a man could not have but one wife in this country unless he went to Utah. He then referred to the different officers of the county from Jus tice of the Peace up to Sheriff, saying if any of them failed to make proper re ports and do their duty they were guilty of a misdemeanor. And it was the duty of the Board of County Commissioners to publish in the county paper the financial statement annually, so that the peo ple may know the financial condition of the county. The charge altogether was an excellent one, and we would have been glad for every man in Granville county to have beard it, as it was full of good ad vice and at the same time defining the duty of citizenship. Solicitor Parker was quite busy look ing after the criminal docket, and has worked faithfully for the cause of the State. The foLowing cases have been disposed of up to time we go to press : State vs Clark Royster, for intimidat ing voters, assault with deadly weapen? called and failed; judgment ni si. State vs H. A.
