The Misses Lerter of Columbia, on their way to Laurens, last Saturday. stopped over at "Zobelville" for a few hours while waiting for the train. Our colored M?thodist citizens are having one of their old time protracted meetings. They are singing and sailing right along in the good old Ship of Zion. It is so nice to write over a )tom de plume and have folks guessing who it is. You can have so much fun and say- what you please, as long as you're unknown. Look out for a fall in the price of lmin ber-31r. Duncan Shockley has a nine pounder, a boy, to look after. Now is the time to get lumber cheap, while the "old block" attends to the "chip." Silas has noticed that his predecessor never reported the rink, we suppose be- l cause he didn't want it to be too widely I circulated, but we will say it is now in full blast and has some graceful skaters. I have been requested by Mr. G. to thank Mrs. Sheppard for rosy red toma toes and sweet grapes; Mrs. Pratt and Mrs. Duncan Shockley for sweet pota toes, and Mrs. Coates for a little more eider, too. A good dame who uses "scourmne" to beautifully brighten her tins and "white soap" so handily, begs us to make-a-fuss about it in "happenings" for the benetit of ladies who may not know that the ar ticles may be had for only 5 cents a cake at Mr. ZobeP's grocery. A Newberrian abroad, writing to Si las, says lie still has bright visions of the bountiful repast at Helena last fall where Columbus 3IeWhirter excited such feirttist~the good dames prayed to be spared a famine, and where Frank Lane and John Fant ate a hog each and grunted for ai full week afterwards. The first sociable for some time was given last Friday night at the residence of Dr. S. G. Welch, by permission. Sev eral of the boys were not present. One was seen going in the direction of New berry with an immense bouquet on. Two or three sat on Bishop & Co.'s. steps. WVhat's the matter mit the boys? Silas won't say whether he was there or not, for he'd he giving himself away. There was an "old maids' dining," last MIonday, at the hospitable home of a lady here. They all took their "kniting". The pleasant hours sped away all too soon, for, as we learn, there were so m: ny pretty things to talk about be tween times, and nothing personal-not even in the way of legitimate criticism. The meeting was informal and the chat ting unconventional. After dinner, which of course was a nice one, the time was well spent in glancing over the dai 1ly papers, singing a pretty song or two, appropriate to the occasion; for instance, "when the roses come again," "sweet violets," and 'where is now the merry party,'' and admiring the photograph of a gdllant bachelor who failed to be pres ent. SILAS 3MUCKINFUSS. PICNIC AT MT.ZION. ME..EDITOR :-The most delightful pic ii of the season took place at M1t. Zion Church on last Saturday. Such company and such a dinner you never saw. If I had the time I might fill a column ex patiating on the pleasures of that day. But Mr.'ditor life is short and I regret that just at this particular time I am in the biggest kind of a hurry. Suffice it to say that there were more pretty gits than a fellow could possibly talk to in a day, and as inany good women and clev er men as you 6awv in one crowd. In the afternoon,~ in spite of the heat Iartford and Silver Street playedl a game of nine innings at base ball. Of the IIartfords it is useless to say any thing. All your readers know the.m. The Silver Street Club is young, with some first-class material in it, and all they need to become formidable is prae tie and discipline. The score stcod 14 to 53 in favor of IIart ford.
