County Treasurer Wheeler closed his books on Wednesday, 11th, for the col lection of taxes. The collections this year have been very good. The following summary shows the amount collected and the balance yet dv.e: Taxes charged, including Poll Tax...................................$44,094 57 Amount collected................... 43,106 71 Balance due...................S 987 86 POLL TAX. Poll Tax charged....................$ 3,468 00 Collected ................................ 2,933 00 Balance due.....................8 635 00 From this showing it will be seen that the deficiency to be collected outside of the poll tax is only $352.86. This is very small when it is probable that half of this amount will be found to be double en try. The treasurer has not yet made up that list. A Horse Stolen. Messrs. John W. Cadden, John Ver non, Jas. Cadden and George Rich, of Aiken County, were in Newberry on Monday in search of a stolen horse. For 'description see notice eklewhere. The horse was stolen fronm Mr. Moseley's stable Wednesday of last week. They t--acked the horse in this direction some distance .this side of Batesburg. The horse was ridden by a negro boy about 18 or20 years old, without a saddle, and from what these gentlemen cOuld gather he was a negro boy who had but recently come in their neighborhood and claimed to have hailed from Newberry. Mr. Moseley is a poor man and this is his S only horse. Any information in regard to the horse will be gladly received by him. TIhe horse is nine or ten years old. Wright & J. W.

Several fine lots of mules have been rought to the Newberry market re ently and they are selling very fast. 'he question naturally is what becomes f all these mules that are sold every ear.

After giving a photograph of Mr. kbe Foot, the Atlanta Constitution of )ecember 11, 1887, says: "Above is given a good likeness of >e of the livest, shrewdest and most letermined merchants in the city, whose chief aim is to conduct an estab ishment that will take the lead in :very respect to aniy business of the md in operation. Mr. Abe Foot is he proprietor of the Trunk Factory, lush and Leather Case Depot, 34 Whitehall street.

HIe Last week a farmer living a consider able distance from town sold a bale of Ba cotton here for 10.15. Middling cotton was worth 9.. He wanted a barrel of a r sugar and four barrels of flour. He th< bought his goods, of course, at nearly bu cost, and returned home happy and Sh serene. ha On Friday, the 27th inst., the 4th sec- ye tion of Reedy River Baptist As=ociation the will convene at this place. The new concrete church is nearing completion t and it is intended to hold the sessions of the Association in the new church. This marks an important epoch in this de- ?o nomination at this place, as they have never had a church here. fre The meanest thing' that has come to our notice in a long time, happened near _T here last week. Some party or parties, the deponent knoweth not, took the horse, a valuable one, belonging to Levi wi Grey, an inoffensive colored man, and severely and seriously cut the poor dumb brute in as'many as five or six places. R The party or parties must have been possessed of a legion of devils. Bill Chandler of counting-in-Hayes no- fo toriety, now comes to the front ini Con gress, again, with a bill to reconstruct th the election laws down here in South d. Carolina. William is exceedingly anx- a. ions to make some arrangement by which he can count in somebody next 12 November. I wonder when those fel lows up there will let us attend to our business. We try to be peaceable, and Ur quiet, and civil, and law-abiding, and we are, yet they wo' let us alone. We JO just keep saying "let us have peace," but I am afraid that we will never have peace until such fellows as Bill Chan- 3 dler, and John Sherman, and Foreacre, du and Edmunds and Ingalls, and paralytic inj Fairchild, shall have passed away to meet in council ini the halls of a warmer tha clime. I I have in miy mind a hoy-yes, a co, young man, one that I love to think Ki of and talk about. I love to hold him up as a miodel for other boys-other young Re men. He is a boy that loves, obe.ys, respects his parents, and helps the m all he can. He is affectionate to his sisters, cla and is ever ready to protect them and serve them. He is polite and courteous Hi to all whrom lie meets, ever raising his hat to ladies and old men. He chooses the best and most pious associates. He an often sits at the feet of the iise and learned, and drinks great draughts of wisdom. I see him regularly at church, both morning and evening, and at Sun day-school his place is also regularly filled. [ see the same boy ini regular at tendance at tire weekly prayer meetinug, andl at the meetings of thre T. M. C. A Li I look and find that he is a punctual -member of these religious organizations. Yes, I love to think of this boy, for I know he will make a noble character El both in this world and the world to come. Boy-young man, is it you?~ YUBE.
