About fifty negroes in the neighborhood of Little River, in Fairfield county, are preparing an exodus to Florida. The real cause of the movement is not definitely known, but the parties moving in the matter seem to be laboring under the impression that things are in a better condition in Florida, and that laborers are there better remunerated. Upon the whole, the white el ement of the population may congratulate themselves on the prospects of the exodus.

THE OLD CHAP INTERVIEWED AGAIN. ^TyKTKLL, Olil Chap, as I was round calling, T T I thought I would drop into your olliee and see how things were moving along with you this week. How Has Trade Been?" "Well, sir, trade, the past week, has been rather dull with me, although I never grumble. When dull, I stick the closer to it, and say but little about it." "How are they paving you this Fall ?" "Well, sir, my collections have been very good, although I have a good deal out yet; but I will get itall in or secured by January, 1884." "I hear that a great many are not willing to secure their debts this Fall." "Well, sir, we have had but little trouble about getting oureustomers to secure what they cannot pay, this year. I have had a few to refuse to secure their indebtedness." "What are You Going To Do About It ?" "Well, sir, I propose to keep a book and enter the names of parties in it who fail to secure their indebtedness to me, and call it the Black Book, so that I can refer to it; and, besides, it will be open at all times to the other merchants, so they can be posted. No names will be put on the Black Book only those who refuse to secure their debts with me on January 1st, 1884, that have to be carried over until next Fall. I hope all my brother merchants will keep a similar record. I hope not a single name will have to appear on my book." "How about those nice Cashmeres you advertised at 12* cents?'' "Well, sir, they are selling fast. I am doing well, also, on Black Cashmeres, as I have an elegant stock at all prices. I also keep a line of nice black Henrietta Cloths and Crepes, suitable for mourning." "How About Silks and Jersey Cloths ?" "Well, sir, I have had a tine trade in plain black and Ottoman Silks.' I keep a good lineand sell them cheap. There has been a good deal of marrying going on this Fall, and nearly all intended brides must see Mrs. DOBSON before they got their wedding fixings, and, consequently, she sells most of them. She is posted, and can tell them .just what to get. How much cloth, how to trim, and how to wear; and, besides, sho has all kinds of Trimmings, and then she can have it cut and lit, or cut and made, just as a lady may wish, and she generally gets them to make. Mrs. DOUSON will give you all the information about trimming and making, whether you get it made by her or not. This is quite an inducement for persons living in the country to buy their DRESS GOODS From me." "How about Shirtings and Checks ?" "Well, sir, I am selling quite a quantity of them, but am not making any money at the prices. It is just the same as swapping gold dollars and giving your time in. Think of selling yard-wide Shirting at 7 cents by the bolt, and Checks at 8." "How did you get out on Cloaks and Dol| mans?" "Sorry, I am not out at all. I havesold quite a number of Dolmans, Jackets, Pelisses and Cirt eulars, lmt Cloaks have not sold at all. I am of[ fering Cloaks at ruinous prices, and still they wont sell." "How js the Clothing trade this season ?" "Weil, sir, wjtli me it has been pretty light, as the season has been too mild. I have a large I stock of Overcoats, which I am offering at very reasonable prices, to close out. I have done as well as could be expected, considering the warm Fall." "How is it with you in regard to Hardware?" "Well, sir, I have done well in that line. T believe, sir, it is generally known that I keep the nicest and best selected stock in town, and most persons needing anything in that line come to me for it. I have done well in Guns, especially in double-barreled ones. I always sell quitea number of Carpenter's tools." "Do you keep any Groceries ?" "None scarcely :*I always have Soda, Pepper, Ginger and Spice." "How About Oents' Hats?" "Well, sir, to tell you the truth, my trade on them has been quite dull, although I keep a splendid stock, and sell them at short profits." "How about Cassimeres and Jeans?" "Well, sir, my Jeans trade has been splendid. Cassimeres have went off pretty slowly; that is good ones." "Do you keep School Books and Stationery ?" "Well , sir, I keep agood line of School Books and sell them at publishers' prices. I keep John Swett's Method of Teaching, and Baldwin's Management of Schools. I keep a nice line of Note and Cap Paper, Pens and Inks of all kinds. Also a new Slate just out, which will not break by letting it fall. It is called the noiseless slate." "How about Shoes?" "Well, sir, I always do well on Shoes, as it is generally known that I keep a first-class stock of all kinds, and especially in Ladies'and Gents' Dress Shoes. I also keep a lino of good Coarse Boots, and have done well this season." "I was about to forget to ask you about the leading branch of your business? MILLINERY. "Well, sir, I always do well in that line. All the ladies want to consult Mrs. DOBSOX about Hats and Bonnets, whether they buy from her or not, as she goes to New York twice a year and gets posted in that line. She always has a good trade, and she keeps nearly everything the ladies want in that line, and sells at reasonable prices. She gets a great many orders from outside the county for Millinery." "How about your new departure?Dress Making?" "Well, sir, Mrs. DOBSOX gets juSt as much work as she can do all the time, aiid keeps five ladies sewing; but there is no money in making Dresses at the prices she gets for them. 11 takes it all to pay for the labor of making." "Well, why do you not quit it?" Well, sir, it helps me sell Dress Hoods and Trimmings, and then it gives employment to persons who have to work for a living, and 1 think that quite an inducement to run the business; and, besides, it is such an accommodation to the ladies to get their dresses made in the latest styles and at reasonable prices. Mrs. DOBSON has made quite a business of it in a short time. The greatest reason for her success in Millinery and Dress Making, is that she superintends both Departments in person and sees that everything is (lone right. Xo work in Millinery or Dress Making leaves the House except what is done in first class style. She keeps a good Trimmer and employs good Seamstresses in her Dress Making Department, and that causes all work to be done well." uVim Keen Patterns. Also ?" JL \FU IV\ \ |; B. UiiVAAIM^ 4 AAN/V V "Well, sir, I keep the most popular Patterns '{ sold South?Butterick's. None better, and they are used almost exclusively in this county, j Hardly any lady makes a Dress without consulting Butterick." "Well, sir, I am under many obligations to you for this information, and will surely give the public the knowledge I have received. Hood afternoon." "Call again next week." "Thank you, sir." "Good afternoon, Mf. Jones. T have just been up to seethe OLD CIIAI* Ami pet sill the information T could from him, which he pave me cheerfully ; and he has gotten upouo of the best ideas in regard to persons who fail to pay at the end of the year, and have to bo carried over until the next 'Fall, and have the < moans to secure the debt and will not do so.
