The Present Price of Wheat. Every person, their wives and childre n are hotly discussing the probable price of the new crop of wheat. The witch of Endor if she-could be raised, and all sound Puritans promise not to han her, might bo persuaded to give the exact price of the cereal, but our not believing much in the supernatural, and leaving all doubtful questions to be solved by the learned, we would advice you to visit the cheap ca7t store of Murray & Morgan' and provide youiself with a suit of their readj'-made clothing; go one rye on their ladies' dress goods and hats at cost, open both eyes and look at their coltonades at from 5 to 15 cents per yard, worth Horn -5 to 30 cents per yard, slightly ncorclrcd but not bv the ravsof the sun; try a pair of "their standard screw boots or shoes warranted not to rip or. leak; stare wildly at their bargain counter, take a sly peep at their tin-ware, queens ware and gro ceries, and wind up by patroni sing one of the most reliable firms in the count'. Lumpkin has the best shirt iver sold for 85 cents, and linen collars to suit. The attention of ladies is es pecially called to Lumpkin's straw hats, trimmed in the la test style and with good taste. Also, his ready-made linen and graso linen suits, elegantly trimmed. Silk tics of all grades itnd colors, and dress goods of the latest novelties. DO'WR ! DOWN ! DO WIS! Tt. II. Ogilvie. Is.

At 12 o'clock a barbecued dinner was spread, and it was ample for the large number, visitors and candidates, who were present, the number of all being estimated at 400 to 500. After dinner and a short recess, the exercises were re sumed, by concert reading by the school, which was well done, followed by. declamation and dialogue, at the conclusion of which an appropriate and ex- ess wasdehveied by C.

Ckher railroad invest mints of a still m re unprofita ble character have come to light. The Globe loaned $16,000 on 832,000 of the bonds of the New Yyrk, West Shore and Cbieago Railroad, which has not been built, and the stock is worth nothing. The Globe is said to be secured in this instance by notes of John Van Nest, the promoter of the enterprise. It is owing to the in vestment of the company's money in this way that Superintendent Smyth demands that theiflicers shall retire. The Company has some unprofitable real estate, in cludingthe Columbia Opera House. The Fieeman Brothers are mak ing arrangements to retire, and are doing their best to protect their interests in the institution. J. F Burns, of the Phoenix Lift Insurance Company, of Hartford, is spoken of as the probable man ager. He was formerly Superin tendent of agencies of the Globe.

We hope no hard feelings will be entertained towards us for personating a few of the young ladies and little girls; of course, some did better than others. The speeches of Annie Lee Dinwiddie, Mamie Lamb, Katie Gordon, Mary Drake and Mary Rodcs, were, indeed, excellent; and the readings of Misses Lizzie Hayncs, Lizzie Bruce, Mary Ramsey, Maty Wallace, Tillie Xassauer, Mary Hall and Xettic Tardiff, could not have been excelled. All did remark ably well, and we wish we could attend such entertainments of- j i iLu. uur town nas now one. the best schools in the State. Prof. Bradshaw is one, of the best instructors our town haR ever afforded, and we are glad the school isin a flourishing con dition, and we feel confident that the next fession will have a larger number of pupils than the one just closed. Mrs. Al ice Allen, the assistant teacher, has but few, if any equals. Miss Josie Diemer, an able and ac complished teacher, has charge of the musical department. With such instructors our school is compelled to flourish. We would be glad if some plar. could be devised to repair the Academy, or, better, to build a new one. Other towns of not one-half the size and wealth of onr have school, houses of which they can boast of. Why not have such an one in Fayette ville? We aro sure our citi zens would subscribe liberally to it then let the Board of Trustees put the ball in motion, and ere long w e will have an Academy of which wc, too, can boast. The building iu its present condition is a shame and a reproach to our communi ty. We hope that steps will le taken in this direction without delay. . Personal Notes.

The stomach is the laboratory of the sys tem, in which certsin mysterious processes are constantly going on. These result in lhe production of that wonderful vivifying agent the blood, which in a state ot health rushes laden with the elements of vitality to the remotest parts of the system. But when the stomach is semi-paralyzed by dys pepsia, b!od manufacture is carried on im perfectly, the circulation grows thin and sluggish and the syslem3 buffer in conse quence. Moreover, ind'gestion reacts up on the liver and bowels, rendering the fitot sluggish and the latter constipated. The brain also suffers by sympathy, and sick headaches, sleeplessness and nervous symp toms are engendered. Hostetter's Stomach BitterS reforms this state of tiling, gives peimanent tone and regularity to the stom ach and its associate organs, the bowels and liver, and ensures complete nourish ment and increases vigor of ttie syst. -in.
