Parties wishing to buy good horses or vehicles should not fail to attend the sale at Pineville tomorrow of the livery business of .Mr. #J. W. McKlhany. See notice in another column. For the past week the passengot trains on the Southern have been running late. The amount of business at. this season of the year is so great that it seems a matter of impossibility for tbe trains to run on I schedule time. f Christmas is just a little over three I weeks off, and holiday goods are [ already begining to arrive. A close watch of tbe advertising col u in us of Tbe Times will |>oint oul tbe best and cheapest place to hu> yourChntsmas goods. A fatal disease has appeared among the stock of Mr. L. tS.
