Death of Mrs. Lizzie Peroman. A heartrending letter from Gen. Pei ry man, the father, to our honored town: woman, Mrs. Charlton, announces ti death of Mrs. Lizzie Perryman. Thl was the young lady, who, scarcely mox than a year ago, while on a visit to th Dozier? and Charltons, was so admirer and made so many friends, in Ed gefiele Early in the past spring, she married young gentleman of her own name, an after a long northern tour, went to house keepingin a happy Tesas home. And no* when Just fair', y entered into the high es tate of womanhood, God, in His infinit* wisdom, has called her to a bappierhome She died at Liberty, Texas, on the nigh of the 8rd Instant. This (Hsp^sation i an the more mysterious, inasmuch as thi well moulded cbaractor of Mrs. Perry man fitted her for the responsibilities nc lees than for the charms of life. Hei death comes like a cloud over tho face o the rising sun, or like the cold frost upoi an opening flower. But as we know no the ways of providence, we must bow U ita decrees, and learn to accept oven sc grievous a sorrow as this. Although i bright young life is oloeed forever or earth, we know lull well that a brlghtei life ls just begun beyond the river. In Edgefield a very wealth of sympathy follows thia touch of tho angel ot death, WORTH IN PARIS, WHITE IN AU GUSTA. Tb? Great Dry Gouda Man Forced to Splice His Stores Again With an Aaaex for Ladies? Pine Drees Goods? Paint-rs wore busy and docorators hard at work to-day in the newly fitted store, 722, two doors below the greet J. B. White dry goods house, on Broad street. Everything was on the rush, and superintending all this fine arrangement was Allen'Boatwright, the first lieuten ant of Mr. White. *! What's up?" asked the Evening Newe, "Havo you quit the dry goods business and gone into decorative art ?" "Como in Monday morning and see !" replied the director general of the job, turning and smiling like an October ray of sunshine. "Didn't know what was in the wind as the people have not heard from the leader of late. By the way, why bas \ White quit advertising?" VA " Well, to .tell the ; truth, we have not aad tho time. Wo havo been so rushed ineyeYjr one of the immense departments of tho^ouse. * vt no lime was loft to think 'A^jpirfBLiL0 an advertisement. We haw gd d ay and night to wait U1?' ; Wh? dry goods de . partmenV Hk^e an^ female \poDulatiJ . Band clothing menao, we are now forced to add an other store e^d more clerks. We have right now 72 hames on the pay roll of the dry goods departmont alone. What do you thi. k of that?" " Immense," ox cl ai mod the Netos, " and yet you think of annexing and adding to the force?" "Exactly," replied Mr. Roatwright. "And when we start this annex you may look out for advertising. Mr. White will make things hum, and we will make a specialty of advertising for the purpose of letting the ladlee know where they cen find the most complete line of fash ionable and fine drees goods ever brought South." " That, then, is the meaning of this new store, and you want the News to tell the ladles ?" '.My friend, you aim well with your 11 ttl - bow and an ow, and you have made a eea*re. shot. You may tell the ladies to put White's annex on the list of places not to be missed whilo out shopping. We have been forced by the demands of the ladles for fine dress goods and by our growing trade to separate this depart, ment entirely from the old dry good house and bring our fino goods to this store. Of course the circulation and cou neotion between all the departments is kept up in the rear, and away back there you will find an unbroken annex of dry Roods, clothing, boots, show and hats flowing in from Ellis street along the whole block, but the Broad street en trances are separate and distinct, and this new-and beautiful store ls the latest "annexJ' and the peculiar "pride of the Yhenae," . ? " What did you say you were going to keep -n here?" " Well, sir, I repeat, come and see and tell the ladies to come and see ; but if we do not keep the handsomest aud most completo stock of ladles'lined es? goods, silks, satins and the latest designs in new fabrics, and if we do not show the most elegant wraps, cloaks, coverings and ladies' pretty decorations, then we intend to quit the country and om i prate to a place where monoy and tasto will tell. But wo have norteara on that Hcoro. If you tell them they will come." " Ltd you say you would open on Mon day?" M We will be ready to re?oive on Mon day. Our goods are being put into posi tion in immediate bnt artistic fashion aod the ladlee are invited to call and ex amine the pi ettiost and the latest sly les ever brought to Augusta." : "Who will have charge?' " I will have general charge of this de partaient as well as the floor of tho dry I goods store, and I will see that the ladies I are given the best attention." "That settles it, the ladies shall be in formed and I'll put you on tho list. Good day." And the Evening News turn ed in, perfectly satisfied that the ladies weald be suited to the Queen's taste by Ailsa Boatwright and his boys. Sam. Jone*** Sermons and all Other Good Books. In referring to the new card of Pen die ton, of Augusta, in another column, we simply mention "Bern Jones's Sermons" because lt is at present a very popular aod a very instructive book.

Tb ' exhibition of blooded horses and cal tie was a fine one, and at the anctio * sale many registered cattle were dil posed of. The prices were not high. * however, the highest price paid for single animal being $235 for a regis tered Jersey cow. Several citizens c Greenville were present, but none c them made purchases. Pendleton ant its surrounding country is noted fo fine stock, including the improve* broods of cattle, sheep and horses. I is headquarters for that noble bree? of horses, the Norman Percherone and the people there know their value This lies in the fact that aronnd Pen dieron live that olass of good eolic people who, even in the days of th< brilliant past, were ahead of the timei in the improving and owning of fin? stock and in tho practical applicatioi of science and common sense to th? pursuits of the farm.
