giumorous fepartmpnt. DADDY'S BOY. Id a certain small town on the Mississippi, lived a man who made horse-trading a business. He bought up horses for a city market, aud was considered pretty good on a trade. One day a long, lean, queer, green-looking specimen of the western country arrived at the dock with a boat-load of horses. He inquired for the horse-jockey. "Daddy seut ine down here with some horses," he said in a half idiotic tone. "Who's he?" "Daddy." "What do you want for your horses?" "Daddy said you could set your price," was the response. "Let's go down and look at your horses," said Brown, and accordingly they wdfe soon at the boat. Browu examined the horses, and named the price he would give for this one and that, ntts) tKa AAlinfpO Km mnlrin marlp nn nhipption. although some of the offers were not more than oue-half the real price of the animal. One of the bystanders gently suggested to the couutryman that he was being cheated, but the bumpkin replied : "Daddy said Brown would set the price himself," and so Brown had it all his own way. At last they came to another animal, which did not look much superior to the rest. "I must have more fur that auermal," said the fellow. "Daddy says he can run some." "Run!" said Brown ; "that nag can't run worth a cent." "Daddy said so, and daddy knows." "Why, I've got one up at the stables that would beat it all hollow." "Guess not," said the fellow. "Let's try 'em. I'll bet the whole boat-load of horses on 'im Brown smiled. "I'll stake five thousand dollars against your boat-load," said Brown, winking to tbe crowd, "and these men," selecting two, "shall hold the stakes." Brown's five thousand dollars were entrusted to one, and the other went on board the horse-boat One of the crowd started to remonstrate with the poor idiotic fellow, but he only responded : "Gollv! daddv told me he could run some, "* ^ ?/ fj ~ ~ t ^ and daddy ought to lose 'em if he was sich a tarnal fool as to tell me that when he could not." Brown's sleek racer was brought down, and Brown mounted him. The countryman led out his animal and climbed on his back, looking as uncouth and awkward as the horse he proposed to ride. The word was given and they started amidst the laughter of the crowd. At first Brown was ahead, and it looked as though the poor fellow was to be badly beaten; when suddenly he plunged forward and the horsejockey was left far behind. Such going had not been seen in those parts for a long time, and poor Brown was crestfallen as the cheers of the bystanders fell on his ears. "I'll take the spondulix," said the countryman, riding up. "Daddy was right. The anerraal can git round a little" Brown tried to say it was a joke, but the fellow would have his money. "I guess I won't trade to-day," he said, as he put it in his old, rough, leather pocket. book. "I'll go back to daddy." In vain Brown tried to induce him to trade, but he pushed off his boat, resolutely saying, "I'd better go back, and tell daddy." Brown was completely sold, for he knew at once that the green countryman was a little shrewder than people imagined him, and bad inct nnmo thpre nnrnnselv t.o win his money j?'? i?t J ? ? . from hira. Next time be did not ridicule a horse that daddy said could run. ? - ? A Good Story by Col. Lamar.?Col. Lamar, in his speech before the Democratic Convention at Jackson, recently, told the following anecdote, which, we were told by a reliable gentleman, has its foundation in fact: There lived in one of the counties adjoining Lafayette, a few years ago, an old negro man who was engaged in buying cattle and driving them to Memphis for market, and by talking in all the neighbors's milch cows, etc., he found on the way, he always managed to make a considerable profit on his cattle trading. On one occasion, however, he invested in a drove of hogs and took them to Memphis; but by a loss in weight, and a decline in the market, he lost some money in the transaction. He had always been in the habit of bousting, after selling his cattle, of the large profits he had made; but when he returned home after the sales of his hogs he did not have a word to say. The little darkies did not understand his silence, and quite a number of them gathered around him, and entreated him to tell how much profit he had made on ? ?- i-..*. _n u .. ??tt_ xiis nogs, uui an iuey cuuiu gei uut ui ?ju* ele Joe" for some time was: "G'way, g'way, children. Don't be bodderin* me 'bout dem hogs." But they continued to tantalize the old man, until he exclaimed, in great fury: "Profit, h?11! All de profit I got was de comp'ny ob de d?d hogs from here to Memphis." The Colonel then remarked that he supposed the audience knew of a good many men who had gone over to the Kadical party to get office, and who, so far, had got nothing but "de company."?Mobile Register. *> ? A Dream that Parted Man and Wife, Bundy has been married two weeks and has left his wife. Bundy is a little man, and his wife weighs 240 pounds, and was the relict of the late Peter Potts. About ten days after marriage, Bundy was surprised, on awakening in the morning, to fiud his better half sitting op iu bed eryiug as if her heart would break. Astonished, he asked her the cause of her sorrow ; but receiving no reply he began to surmise that there must be some secret on her mind that she withheld from him, that was the cause of her anguish, so he remarked to Mrs. B. that as they were married, she should tell him the cause of her grief, so, if possible, he could avert it, and after considerable coaxing he elicited the following from her: . "Last night I dreamed that I was single, and as I walked through a well-lighted street I came to a store where a sign in front advertised husbands for sale. Thinking it curious, I entered, ?nd ranged along the wall on either side were men with prices affixed to them?some for 81,000, some for 8500, and so 41 Zf) An4 ?o T had not. that, amount I uu ww v^ wv/? a*uva hw ? - ? ? could not purchase." Thinking to console her, B. placed his arm lovingly around her, and asked: "And did you see any man like me there ?" "Oh, yes," she replied, drawing away from him-; "lots like you. They were tied up in buuches, like asparagus, and sold for ten cents per bunch." Bundy got up, and went to see his lawyer if he had sufficient grounds for divorce. ft?"* Somebody interviewed George Francis Train, and the latter said : "Do you see these hands ?" See the blood runs in them ! There's health for you! All comes from vegetable diet, sir. No meat for me. I eat nothing hut vegetables. Vegetables make muscle, sinew, strength, manhood." "Yes, George," said the auditor laughing, "you're right; meat is weakening. 1 always notice all the strong animals live on vegetables. There's the weak lion and panther, they live on meat; and there's the sturdy sheep, the goose, the calf and jack-ass; they live on vegetables entirely. They "It always makes me mad to talk to an infernal fool!" said Train coloring up, while he turned on his heel and left in a huff. S&" "Is that clock right over there ?" asked a visitor the other day. "Right over there ?" asked the boy; "tain't no where else." | YORKVILLE ENQUIRER, PI volume aa.~is7?. nc THE YORKVILLE ENQUIRER, which, on iv the lstof January, 1876, will enter upon the Twkn- T( ty-second volume, is a large, twenty-eight col- th umn paper, handsomely printed on clear, legible aj. type, and devoted to the Political, Social, Ao- . ricultural and commercial interests of the ld South. In announcing the new volume, we are ar enabled to promise increased attractions in all the re different departments of the paper, conspicuous cj( among them being the Serial Stories, written expressly for the Enquirer. "i As a non-partisan, independent family newspa- an per, the future editorial conduct of the Enquirer can be as well judged by the past as by any promise which we might now feel disposed to make. An experience of thirty-five years in the newspaper business?of which time at least one-half has \\ been unremittingly devoted to the management W( of the enquirer?iunv convinces uie piupnr?/> that the plan he adopted on assuming control of 63 the paper, is the correct mode of journalism in the fir present day. The true mission of the newspaper eu is to place before the public facts as they may ex ist, unbiased by partisan feelings or sinister motives; , and the propriety of this course is fully attested, not only by the success of the Enquirer, which pe can truthfully claim the largest circulation of any pr country newspaper in the South, but also by many p other of the most popular and widely circulated papers of the day. The course thus indicated we P] shall continue to pursue, aiming to publish a m LITERARY AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER, which shall be a welcome visitor to the Home Circle, and acceptable alike to all classes of readers. ar Hence, the news department of the Enquirer, ui whether of matters at home or abroad?political or otherwise?will be conducted with the utmost care, and only facts as they seem to exist, will be presented, free from sectional or partv bias. LITERARY DEPARTMENT, uc The original Serial Stories for the new volume will possess unusual interest?being from the P' I pens of the most popular serial writers, vvitn the first number will be commenced a highly ex- ov citing and thrilling story of California and frontier tn life, by Mrs. Henry Deas, entitled {'c PICCIOLA, ~ Which, as a vivid portrayal of life on the Pacific w, coast, with adventure, crime, temptation and tri- ;lI1 umph, is one of the most sensational, yet capti- t? vating and pleasing stories of Western life yet pi written. This story will be followed by others sj] throughout the year, of which we can mention pe the following as now ready: "THE IKON p]; CHEST," a story of domestic life, abounding in ar mystery and secresy; and a racy, spirited and ro- ra rnantic story entitled "LOST AND FOUND; Or, re the White Fawn of the Forest." In addition qf to these, other stories of unusual interest will be m published during the volume. an HISTORICAL SKETCHES. re The Historical Sketches of the Early th History of South Carolina will constitute an important feature of the volume. These Sketches p are writton by Rev. Robert Lathan, and com- cp mencing with the earliest settlement of the State j in colonial times, gradually trace its rise and pro- jj. gress. To the writing and compilation of these Sketches the author has devoted much thought er and extensive research. Besides the colonial his* ???511 nnntain tho aHrririir scenes atld llll KJly, iiiuj ... D ^ portant events, the anecdotes and incidents?legendary and authentic?which have never before been fully published, connected with the Rovolu- jt tionary history of the State. Much of the mate- c|, rial of these Sketches being traditional?many of the events portrayed having never beeu in print? . and written in Mr. Lathan's easy, familiarstyle, ea they will be read with peculiar satisfaction, not only in our own State, but by every one having a just appreciation of the history of a noble ances- 1 try in their struggle for liberty and independence.

To accomplish this object, therefore, I- the FAMILY VISITOR will contain no matter d of a local character, either of the affairs of this or adjoining counties, nor will there beany adver - flaom Aiitu of a local nat.n readmitted in its columns. 3 It is the proprietor's purpose, by entirely exclu? ding this class of matter, to render the FAMILY " VISITOR an entertaining, instructive Home g Companion in every family throughout the land. e THE LITERARY FEATURES. e The same Serial Stories published in the ENt QUIRERwill be transferred to the columns of d the FAMILY VISITOR and among other origii. nal Stories will be published during the year, i- "PICCIOLA," a tale of California and frontier n life, by MRS.

Much of the material of the n Sketches?especially that relative to the middle and upper portions of the State?being traditione al, many of the events portrayed having never ' been in print, and written in Mr. Lathan's easy, familiar style, they will be read with peculiar interest by all classes; while no more entertaining or instructive history could be placed in the hands of the youth, or those who would inform thera) selves upon Colonial and Revolutionary events. rruF ATUFP IVFPAPTVIF.XTS.
