He refused'to stop, and the party then rushed out and caught the reins of his bridle. Mr. Sligh, having no weapon, tried the effect of bluff: he told the party if he didn't let go his bri. dIe be would shoot him, at the same time making a motion as if to draw zi pistol.

The most enjayable fishing frolic of the season was that which commenced at Saluda, near Bouknight's, Wednes day, took in Beaver Dam and closed at Mendenhall's Mill on Thursday. The amount of tish caught was not large, but the enjoyment was great. The party was variously composed of a mas ter in equity, a sheriff, a trial justice, a preacher, an editor, a merchant, a tan ner, a stone cutter, a locksmith and a butcher. The merchant constituted himself cook and proved a good one, and the supper of fresh eggs and other dainties, with coffee brewed on the spot, was a royal one, but the next morning's breakfast, which was largely of fish, was the crowning meal. We enjoyed it so much that we are ready for ano ther. Newberry College, S. C.

Snif fles, he having received this compli mentary prefix at the Cowpens Centen nial-soon after our return from Flori da, called to see if we had brought back anything new from the land of flowers. He came in by the back gate, preferring that way to coming through the house with the risk of meeting the ladies, and the first thing he stumbled over was the alligrator's den. His impulsiveness nearly cost him the loss of a leg, or per haps his head, or an arm, for he was about to precipitate headforemost. Our prompt interference saved the Colonel from so sad a fate. "Great Jehosopbat! what in thunder have you got there?" said he, recoiling in alarm. "A live alligator," was the reply, "well known for its love of niger babies, or white ones when it can't do better." "Wbere did you get it, and what are you going to do with it?" "In Jacksonville, Flori da," in answer to the first, and to the second, that "it was the intention of that boy of ours to work him in double b arness with the goat previously men tioned." "Well," said Sniffles, "that beats all, you newspaper men are al ways up to something. Whoever heard of an alligator and a goat working in arness; some of the readers of the HERALD may believe it, but not I." Under the promise to let him know when all was ready for the experiment. Sniffles departed, muttering "what next, I wonder." Do not fail to call on your druggist| for a bottle of that pure, sweet and de-| licious blood purifier, Smith's Scrofula Syrup.

A.M., President President A. G. Maybin, of the "Mav ton Short Line", Interviewed. A report having been circulated tl: Mr. Maybin contemplated selling c to the Clyde Combination, a report was sent to interview the Colonel, th the truth might be laid before the pu lie. Rep.-Mr. Maybin, having heard ce tain rumors in connection with yo road, I would ask if you intend leasit it to the Clyde Combination? Mr. M.-No, sir! I have nothing that kind in view. I disapprove combinations; besides the Legislatu would oppose it. Rep.-It has been asserted that yoL line was built by the Laurens RailwG Company, and that during the temp rary suspension of that road its rollin stock was transferred to you by its of] cers. If this be true the Clyde Comb natio-n must own a controlling iritere in your road. Mr. M.-For a long time my "Sho: Line" was in debt, and under control < the L. R. R.; but the splendid busine: that it has done in the last five yeai has enabled me to remove all indebtet ness, and it is now a separate and di: tinct corporation-and in fact my ow property. (Rep.-Whew!) Besidf this, the business is increasing so rapii ly that I shall be compelled to mak great additions to meet the increase demands. What I propose is, to plac sleeping c'ars on all through trains, t uniform conductors, lay the entire lin with new steel rails, and extend tb road to Scott's Creek, in order to cox nect with the Steamers now plying o that stream, and to make a throug route to the seaboard by the way Bush River. Rep.-I suppose you will not be cor tent until your line shall reach acroa the broad Atlantic? Mr. M.-Well, sir, to be candid, must acknowledge that a line of stean ers from my terminus to Archangel, o the Northern coast of Russia, is a plan in my platform-so to speak-and i the course of time I propose to establis a line to the North Pole in order to gE ice cheap during the Summer. Rep.-Well, I suppose the lease que: tion is settled? Mr. M.-Yes, sir. The only comb nation that would suit me, would be t lease the Clyde myself, run it in cor nection with my road, and have tb controlling power in my own hands. About this time Mr. R. S. Maybir Conductor, called "all aboard!" and a the President of the "Short Line" w:i going on a tour of inspection he left tb astonished reporter and stepped on th platform of his special car. As th train was slowly moving off he looke out of the window and smilingly said: If things turn out as I expect, I'll startle ail creation, I'll lease the Clyde, and then I'll have The "Maybin Combination". For further particulars concernin the "Short Line" call on the Presider at No. 2 Railroad Street, opposite tb Telegraph Office.

This road has been leased for ninety-nine years by the Columbia and t Greenville Rail Road Company, at $50, Y 000 per year. We enjoyed a drive out six miles on d the Caldwell road Thursday. Cotton W- along the way is looking well, though some of it is quite grassy. Tlhe few ifcorn fields along the road do not look a promising. In passing, we would say that we believe it to be a mistake to plant corn in this section except in rich s bottom-upland corn is not as profitable r as cotton. Oats looks very poor. There are a few patches of wheat along the -road; this crop looks very little, if any, better than the oats. Mr. Crotwell has a beautiful patch of wheat just beyond his house.
