" You Are Evidently Looking tor Santa Claus, and I Am the Nan:** This is what Mr. W. B. Penn, of the old and historic firm of G. L. Penn & Son, now says to tho great public of Edgefield. "But," says the public, "I don't understand. Santa Claus I always thought was a hoary-headed old buffer, while you are a handsome aud stylish young man." "So much the better," says our young friend Penn, "and thank you for the compliment, but neverthe less I am Santa Claus all the same ; and if you will just step into my new store, which my friends say is a beautiful one, I will quickly prove it to you." And so saying, Santa Will Penn Claus leads a large party of ladies and gentlemen into his radiant new quarters, and, doffing his shiny silk hat and drawing off a pair of delicately tinted olive green kids, says, " Now, ladies and gentlemen, I am ready, mostly for lore too, to show and shower upon you all the treasuras of New York and Baltimore-pictures, works of art in every imaginable variety, dolls, fireworks, clocks, lamps, jewelry, of/jets de vertu, all ot the newest styles, and in patterns never before seen in Edgefield.

Miss Sallie Lewis says: " Go to Augusta ?" Goto Augusta to buy christmas things ? Why no body but a raving loon would think of such a thing ! There is nothing in Augusta to compare to Penn's ; nothing ! nothing!! nothing ! ! ! And Mr. Bacon says : "Look here friends, Edgefield may be poor and bloody, and burnt-up, but there is no doubt that for this season she has got clean ahead of all the South on Christ, mas goods. Go in, go in, and look, and even if you have no money it will be equal to tho circus to you." " True, truo." exclaims Mr. Penn, " Miss Sallie Lewis and Mr. Bacon are good friends of mine, and what is more, they are people of taste. Bat, ladies and gontlemen, I see throngs of other ladies and gentlemen, with numerous pretty little children, entering my door.

C MY DEAE SIE : From the ADVER TISES I first learned of the death of my beloved kinsman, James L. Tomp kins. I at once communicated the event to Gen. Hagan, ofthis city, ^ho "'?A 4gp^Warf?gtr*trT " Jame6." beg to hand you General Hagan's note of reply before me, as it con tains a merited tribute to the memory of a manly character. Very truly yours, ?NO. R. TOMNCINS MOBILE, NOV. 23rd, 1885. My Dear Major : Your note, an nouncing the death of your relative and my comrade in arms during the Mexican War, Jas. L. Tompkins, was duly received. Although it was not my fortune to meet him since the memorable events in which we were together engaged, some 40 years since, I could but bear him prominently in my memory. I well remember our first meeting in Mobile prior to our going to Mexico. Mr. Tompkins, with ie friend Mr. Chears, from Florida, joined a choice band of congenial spirits from this State. Amongst them were the Hunters, ?oykins, Walker, Slaughter and others, num bering 10 or 12, who determined on proceeding to the seat of war on our own responsibility and at our own ex pense. We accordingly, with our horses and equipments, proceeded tc New Orleans, from thence to Galves ton and finally reached Point Isabel, near the mouth of the Rio Grande, where we joined Jack Hays' Regiment of Texas Rangers, with which com mand we participated in all the scouts and skirmishes incident to the inva sion ol a Foreign Country, preced ing the famous battle of Monterey, which began on the 19ih September, 1846, and ended by the capture of j the City and garrison of 10,000 men on the, 22nd. In all th eeo trying ant arduous duties, your relative, Mi Tompkins, bore himself with conspic uous gallantry, particularly at the storming of the Bishop's Palace at " o'clock on the morning of the 21st, where he nobly represented the char acteristic chiva'ry of his native State. Respectfully tendering my sincere pympathiee to his relatives, ? am, V Very truly yours, JAMES H. HAGAN. To Major Jno. R. Tompkins. interesting Letter From Johnston. JOHNSTON, S. C., Nov. 28, '85 ME. EDITOR: The entertainment which was given by the Presbyterians at the residence ol Mrs. Hix, was success both as a social and a financial project. The Rev. W. T. Hundley, Miss Carrie Boyd, and Miss Nettie Garrett read entertaining selections. Miss Dosia Werts and Miss Fannie Payne, who are under the tutelage pf Miss Perrin, rendered some ex quieite music. The Johnston Orches tra also discoursed music of trans cendent quality. An election for the most popular young lady was held, and the honers of this position were obtained by Miss Dollie Teague. The proceeds of the entertainment amount ad to upwards of sixty (CO) dollars. A tramp recently exhibited a bear sn the streets of our town. On th? night succeeding the exhibition, two poung men lett their room with the intent of perpetrating petit larceny by "feloniously taking and carrying i way" some of the fuel which abounds n the vicinity of Mr. Mellichampe's idence..
