A TRAMP THROUGH TOWN.
What Is Going on in Newberry's Marts of
Trad--Well Equipped for the
Holidays.
After reading the proceedings of
he presenteconomic Legisla.ure, some
-est and recreation was necessary, so
ve concluded to take "a tramp through
own." In order to get a good start,
re went to the depot and had the
>enefit of the down grade; we had just
,otten up our speed. whei--something
topped us. we looked up and found we
iad run into "a good mill." owned and
ontrolled by
Dom.zic'c & Lovelace.
Ind a good one it is too, fully equipped
or all kinds of grinding and on short
lotice can tur-i out as fine meal or
;rists as any in the State.
Our friend Loveiace was too busy to
alk, so we did not linger long, but
)ushed on uatil we arr:ved at the es
ablishment of
J. S. Russell.
lere in this well kept, well filled store
rou can get anything you need, and
vhether you need it or not, you can get
t "all the same" if you are a mind to,
)y simply asking one of his polite
ilerks. You will find Mr. Russell al
ays on hand to give you a smile of
welcome and sell you just what you
wish to pay for it.
Leaviag Russell's. we had made
)re.iy good headway and thought, we
;houia surely clienb the hill with the
Lmount of steam we had on, but Ed.
Morris, who is with
H. C. Somme .s,
itepped out and siopped us. He did not
isk us to take anything, but wanted to
show us how they had lately changed
thi ags by painting. &c. Paint is a good
thing put on with a brush,but when
put on with tas e. it adds more than
you would imagine. Not on!y had the
>utside felt the eTects of a new coat,
but also the inside was made glad by
additio.as too numerous to mention
now. He-e you can find everything to
refresh and gladden inner man. Ed,
who is both genial and po'te, will "lay
side his fiddle and bow" and give you
xactly what you call for.
Pusbing on a few sieps we hear the
bizz of voices and the tramp of busy
feet, we look and see
Floyd & Purcell
up to their elbows in goods, so withn
their clerks. We stepped in to find out
whe.her it was a clearing out sale tniat
a,ttracted tbe people, but learned, to
our astonishment, that it was rather a
dull day with themi. Goods of every
description, and plenty of them, the
man, woma.1 or child who could not
be suited, or pleased in that store,
should not stop this side of N. Y. when
he or she goes out shopping. So mueb

the firm are young men of fine busi

liar knack of pleasing every one and
making new friends every day. Theji
clerks always wear a happy contented.

plenty to eat. We would have stayed
longer but felt lonesome with nio one
to talk to, so "took up our bed and
walked" up to the clothing Emipor3un

taining a gold brensipin, two gold
finger rings, and several ornaments of
less value. -In the evening he came to
town to dispose of b:s valuables and
was soon the ce've of as admiring
crowd of negro boys. He sold one ring
to Mr. Jas. F. Todd for fifty cents, but
is not able to e:plain exactly how he
disposed of the other articles. The
other ?ng he so!d to Mr. B. M. Dennis.
Foro aately, he had been in town only
a short '.i me when be fel into the hands
of Policeman Franklln. All the stolen
property was recovered, and White was
lodged in jail. He is perfectly stupid
