Last Tuesday morniug about 8

Mr. Alvin Buzzard, who was ginning
nt the time, jumped into the lint room
ci save the cotton therein and was
dangerously burned beforo he co-Id

insurance.
At about 8 o'clock last Wednesday

destroyed by ?re. t
Ten or twelve mules aud horses which
wersfTn the stable when the fire broke
out were saved, but a.hojrse* w*)s burned
Severely. On ?t?e pWcedtng Friday
evening the Doctor's dwelling was found
to bo on fire. The flames were extinguish
ed before much damage had been done.
Both fires were probably the work of an
?incendiary.

A pair of mules belonging- to our
neighbor Sain iu sainly started out last
Thursday P. M. to premcna.de with a
Waggon through A ose A I/.lur's store.
.Changing their miuds, however, at the
last uiomeui, they dericribeil the ares of
several crazy circle.;' with great; r.ipidity
until they saw ltiiey at tho ofliee
window whon, thoy incoutieutly utopped
I'.uia-d trcc-boxos and flying boards; from
the engine house marked the course of
their erratic flight, biu we have ibrtun -

Sleeping Towns and Villages.
Scattered all over tho South you will
find towns and Tillages that are as]sound
asleep as ever Rip Van Vinkle was.
You may thunder In their cars that
there aro moro things marching on than
John Hrown's sriul. lucy'TI yawn out
they don't care, let them march, all they
intend to do is to sleep. These nleeptnjj[
towns and villages refuse to join in tho
great march of improvement, you can't
rouse them, they arc drugged with the
traditions of the past, and tints thoy d >/.e
and nod, and no man can arouse them.
Talk to them about modern improve
ments in figrtnultural and domestic im
plcmentt, and they'll tell you thai what
Noah used is good enough for th mi
They don't want any n<*w inventions;
Noah's wife got along with "it u % wing
machine, and they dor.'* see "tv^y mod
ern Wo^e-n can't ?e\v in the good el l
style. The old fashioned agricultural
intplemontv suit them; they like their
rusty look.
Enemies of tne new, fiienJs oT the
old. you cannot arouso them to t!ie
^knawlud^go --that ther^nrtr- fai jlifchiiid
their cticrjjctic an.l prou. c-mv? tieigh
tors. They ur.i apalhelio, intliffercnt.
Unwilling t > be up und el ho.'. The
some old lazy way suits thetn best, and
they turn the cold shoulder to every
thing like enterprise and modern im
pruvomcut.
Of course we of the South have had
and still have much to depre.sk a id di*
.courage us. but shoul 1 nuke the ef
fort, at all events, to riso ab>vo circum
stances. The o'ily way that tho South
can ever hope to be prosperous, is to be
wide awake, to ^emerge irom tho dark
old hermit liko caves, or tho past; to p it
the hand to the plough of progress an 1
improvement, and never to look back.
Onward and upward should be our
motto; for it is only by ambition- aud
effort that men ever succeeded iu any
thing.?Dtirlinyton .Smithtruer.
A few days sinco J. W. Kenne, of
Pembroke, N. Y\, took his mare from
the baru, leaviug a two mouths' colt be
hind. Ou his return, some two hours
after, he found the colt on the roof of
