(The September number of the New York Fashion Bazar introduced the new modes for the early fall wear. There are among its multitudinous engravings and colored plates costames to suit nearly all occasions and to meet every taste. The new styles, so far as indicated, are a modification of the Empire and Directoire modes which have prevailed during the last season. Children's garments are very pretty, and the cover of the Fashion Bazvk presents some features of the new fall and winter fashions for these little ones There is the usual variety of interesting miscellany.

Last Wednesday in writing up our mail we discovered I that 42o0 { apers less than or snbscipP tiou list had been printed Saturday. ' * So we had to send that number of our subscibers balf sheets only as the Saturday s forms had been distributed and it was then too lale to remedy the mistake. Iu investigating the matter wo discovered that the Imadlfs of paper received from the paper mill last week were each short several quires, which fact was not noticed at the time. We regret that the mistake should have occorred but the mistake was not. ours, as we supposed that the bundles contained the castomary number of quires of paper. jff - - " <f; * The Jurors For the next term of Court are: D.

Mr. Jeffcoat and family have our sincere sympathy.

A great many of the farmers do not .1 Uiuierstand why we charge twenty 1 cents per bale for weighing cotton, mids other towns charge only ten ceDts It is simply an old established custom of this place. The farmer in reality pays nothing for the weighing of his cotton here, ?^U?1 ?\ !>rt nan fon nan a nt. nther ! WU1IU UC puj iVM wwvw | [places where ( he col ton is weighed i by public weigiiers. Here the cotton is weighed by the party baying the cotton, and the twenty cants which ^h^boyer here charges is always takeu in consideration in the price of purchase. If this twenty cents were not charged the buyer would simply ??> twenty cents less in the price Ann making the purchase. mAs to the two pounds breakage, ml is aUo considered in the price as gtftfetf iu reference to weighing gja/gos*. We would be glad if the Farmers' Alliance would weigh their ? owu cotton and guarantee the cotton to hold out on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. The buyers would certainly get rid of a great annoyance in settling claims for loss in weight. however, are willing to adopt j the ten cents charges for weighing, and also to do away with the twoponnd breakage, and see no harm that can come to the ootton bnyers here in doing so, as the price will al war^e'fnade on th it basis. legpectfally, Jasper Miller. ?
