and the mud, and it, was as what is
ktnown as ''Session weathee." lilt this
passed and we lave had some most
chtlrmling and halny stunshine for the
past two or three days. Yesterday was

1oth Houses have gotten down to
hard work and one bill lias been passed
and ratified, and on Saturday the Gov
ernor aflixed iis nmeii, and it became
anll act wiLI the force of law. It was a
local bill to validate the !rawing of
th grand jury for U'nion county.

Th'lie prinilpal topic of conmnent the
past week was the (overinor's imessae.
it, has been1 v'cry heart.iIy recei ved and
warmly c e01111110ommende by the meliers
and the press of the State, with the
notable except,ion, of coiu-se, of the

''he Governor's Imessage is a plain
Simple statement of the questions he
treats antd the suggestions he saw
proper to make without, amy cl'ort to
dictate, 1.o the I ,gishture what, should
he done. He does not. si'a idle any qu1 ,
tion, but takes a positive and hohl
stand for the positions lie holieves to
be right. it, was exp(eted that t here
shoul be dilerence of opinion ( n
Mooted question,. On tihe i)ispensary
1is position was well known long he
fore he became G;overnor, an(1d since he
became (Governor in his circular to
magistrates and voters he stated p O'i
Lively that ho was a helicl in the
I)ispensary systii aid urged a l'oplr
and rigid en forceient of the itwty. If
ho had changed posit ioll, occupying the

The subject on roads, the (Ireenville
News says, contains the giwrmii of an
Idea, though the editor says he (oesi't
know what "'permlatent'' Ilioals, anid
then goes on to biggest, jlist what Ot
(overNor reco r mnended in his anrssagc.
It is strange how we are aill hiaided
by ou' prejudices and can see good only
in such things as agree with our way
of thinking. Of course some are guided
moro by their prejudices than others,
but wo are all weak along this line.

The lirohibition confereneo decided
simply to issue anl address to the peo

any legislation at this session. It, is

I have been hoping
to receive a satisfac
tory offer for my stock
and the rent of the
store, but have thus far
failed to do so. The
merchants have com
plained so much of my
selling goods so low all
the time, and my seri
ous interference with
their business, when I
had areduction or clos
ing out sales that 1 was
in hopes they would
combine and buy me
out, or see that I got a
purchaser. As I am
anxious to retire at
peace with all the trade,
but as I am still without
a purchaser I have de
cided to turn over the
stock to Mr. R. J. Lincl
say, my manager, to
sell out at retail, or by
departments, or in
bulk, and from this
date, until closed, the
goods will be sold at
retail at our low cash
prices, less twenty (20)
per ct. discount. This
will be about an aver
age of first cost, (as this
will be 25 per ct. less
than they are marked,
as 20 per ct. off is equal
to 25 per ct. added).
Merchants will be sold
in lots at and below In
voice cost, and there is
no denartment that
could be duplicated for
what they cost. This
is an opportunity for
our friends to buy real
new desirable goods at
a sacrifice of all profit,
and I would like to have
everybody to get some
of the bargains.
Dry Goods, Silks, Sat
ins, Velvets, Dress
Goods, U nderwear, Ho
siery, Gloves, Notions,
