O UANO agents, merchants, a hotel
keeper wh:o has outside business, and
bloated bondhiolder's, are going to fur
nish many of our farmers wit h fertili
zers, &c., next year. Isn't it well

JIM ADAMS, the ticket Jagent who
was arrestedl in Charlotte some time

WM CARSON and Tom Goode, who
were tried at Greenville this week, for

we got off so light," and received the
congratulitions of several friends upon01
his goodl fortune.
WE learn of a new candidate in
Pickens for honorable mention. It is
Mr. Boggs, Junior, who may some day
follow in the footsteps of his., Lycur
glan father.
There is also another aspirant, in our
town, for the councilman's chair. His
efforts will be united with those of his
father, Mr. Isaac Williams, in making
Easley one of the grand distributing
points of upper Carolina.
WE say hurrah for the farmers who
are honestly endeavoring to settle their
just accounts. despite the evil teach
ings which might have resulted from a
grand mass meeting. Make an effort
to pay up the merchants, f riends, so
that you may live off of theh favor
again next year. Remember those
who have so kindly fed and clothed
you, and who are willing to do it again
if you will but treat them right.
