Mr. .lohn Curry, while hunting the other Friday afternoon, succeeded In brnging down a bird that was out of the ordinary class of birds bagged in tbese diggings. Mr. Curry had reach the ford of Dials Creek, when he heard a commotion above. Looking up he saw a very large bird, which, having become worried by a crowd of crows, (as they were following it and mak ing a tremendous noise) alighted />n a bough of a tree. Of course the gun was called into action, and the bird fell to the ground dead. Judge of Mr. Curry's surprise when he sawjt was an eagle, measuring (so they say) seven and one half feet from tip to tip. How it came to bo this far from its native haunts is a mystery. It seemed to have been tired or It would not hjave been flying so near the earth. A large crowd went to have a look at the bird, to many of whom it was a "rare avis" indeed, as they'd never seen an eagle before. Vacation days are nearly here.

I wonder, esteemed Hillside cor respondent, if you live In L-aurens or Greenville county Pity my ignor ance now.

Surely living In Laurens county you don't want to worst yourself) and work for that new county movement. Movement will be all it will amount to (I hope) for there's nothing doing in these "diggings" toward voting for the new county. Of co?rse, there may be a kew exceptions, but I doubt it.
