James, after cutting hit'whdat off, sowed the ground In peas, which are up and growing finely. It Is Mr. James' intention to turn the vines under just before frost and then, - afteapplymng other manures, sow the graujd in wheat again. This is the pr6per method of farming, and there is acarcely any doubt that Mr. J. wilt make a good wheat crop, as well as greatly increase the fertility of his Juadge Field brought a oat tail in town with him last Monday. It was not theoremnant of the kilkonny cats, Sbut a nat tail which grows in the ,.wnmp - TxRa 8aavi3ga..'-Mr. W. T; Mears, Df this place, has invented a "tire sbrinker," with whicb he shrinks tires without cutting them, The machine is a piece of simple, though ingenious, work, and a tire can be shrunk with it as much as desired within one third the time required by the old process of cutting. Mr. Mears had never seon a machine for shrinking tires when he invented his, which is quite differ ent from the patent ono now used by a good many blacksmiths throughout the 'country. The following is a short description of the "shrinker," though it will have to be seen to bo under stood; Bar of iron 11 inches thick by 151 inches in lengtb, curved in shape of a tire and fastened to a bench, with clamps at each end, through which keys are driven to hold tire in position and keep it from giving when ham-. mered. The tire is heated and given a sharp bend, placed in machine and keyed up by means of the clamps, then hammered down to the bar of iron, which gives the necessary con traction. The tire is then taken out and hammered on the anvil on the edges and face to give it proper shape. The only differenco seen in the tire aftcr shrunk is an enlargement at the place where the contraction was ob tained. Parties who sec a tiro shrunk in this manner will never after have one cut. Mr. Mears is prepared to do work on short notice. See advortise% rnent elsewhere. A little more honey in their coffee, is what William Coffee and Levi Mur phreo desieed, and being instigated by the devil and not having the tear of God before them, moved upon the apiaries of M.

For this c.ffense they were brought 3p before Trial Justice Tolleson, plead ;uilty, and by agreement of all parties wore turned loose, upon payment of all damages and costs, and upon agreo ng to shako the dust of South Caro ina from their feet and letting the >laeCo which then knew them know .hem no more forever.
