Editor Press and Standard:—As
t ie terrible office cat did not get the
scribblings 1 sent in to our dear old
county paper, here I am again
knocking for admittance.
We bad a very nice protracted
meeting at Cross Swamp, which was
eujoytd by all.
Rev B F Halford delivered
nice sermon ct Ashton ecl'ool
on the evening of the 25th,
was largely attended.
TheYe is plenty ' of new cott n
iicing brought here, which is bring
ing a very handsome little price, as
we have up to-date cotton buyers,
who give the regular Augusta prices
amt always glad to get your cotton.
The farmers have begun to gather
their cotton very rapidly which eeems
to please the meichants very much,
but leaves the farmers with a broad
grm. All their future hopes are
cane grinding and ’later digging.
We are sorry to say that Mr New
ton Jones is not any better at this
writing.
Mrs W I) Berry is seriously ill
at her father’s home.

prefis. In other words that tho
editor of a weekly was to be
merely a sort of machine for
gathering items' of news—a sort
of social gossipmonger for the
entertainment of the public!
Another of the company
thought the News did not con
tain enough reading matter, laid
no stress whatever upon editorial
articles, and cited the average
country newspaper, with its long
string of social nothings, as the
model of w'hat a newspaper
should be.
Still another thought that more
nice things should be hunted np
to say abont the place and the
people; and we suppose a dozen
critics would have had a dozen
objections and a dozen plans for
the production of a perfect news
paper. It was the old story of
the Indian and his canoe.
