The stock of merchandise formerly
owned by Lake & Austin, was bought
from the Baltimore purchasey by Geo.
& R. P. Lake, who will continue to sell
the stock until it is entirely closed out.
They inform us that the goods are to be
sold and that they will offer some rare
bargains. These gentlemen are business
men and mean exactly what they say.
We advise our readers to keep au eye
out for this flue opportunity to buy first
class goods at rock bottom prices. We
need not speak of this stock, as we all
know how complete and well selected it
is. Having been purchased for this
market, and with an eye to please both
in prices and quality, none need go
away dissatisfied who call at this mam
moth establishment.

We omitted to mention, in our last
issue, tho deserved success of our friend
Capt. J. B. Lake, at the State Fair at
Jackson. The Capt. entered his bonny
white mare, "Maude," in the ring, open
to the world for tire best horse or tnare
of any age or pedigree. Of all the fine
stock at the Fair—and they were numer
ous—only one (or rather his owncr)darcd
compete with "Maude" for the premium.
The judges were unanimous, as soon as
they saw the animal, that "Maude" was
without a peer, and so decided almost in
stantaneously. "Maude" is certainly a
model of equine beauty, and the Capt.
may well he proud of her.
We acknowledge the pleasure of a call
from Mr. G. W. Scott, of Connersville,
Indiana. Mr. Scott has purchased the
Dunaway place, four mileseast oftown—
about 1200 acres, and will soon cast his
fortunes with Lite citizens of Grenada
county. He is an enterprising, energet
ic and accomplished gentleman, and it
certainly affords us genuine pleasure to
chronicle the advent of such men among
tts, as permanent citizens. We bespeak
for him a cordial welcome at the hands
of our good people.
The following deserved compliment to
our esteemed friend Capt. K. M. Leach,
which we clip from the Springfield,(Mo.)
Herald, will be read with interest and
appreciation by our entire community :
The Herald received a pleasant call
yesterday from Mr. It. M. Leach, repre
senting the Livermore Foundry and Ma
chine Co., of Memphis. It is one of the
heaviest and,most complete concerns in
the Southwest, and Mr. Leach one of the
most genial knights on the road. W e
trust lie will find it both convenient and
profitable to visit our city regularly.
We direct the attention t^ouT readers
to the new double-column advertisement
of Jas. S. Wilkins, Jeweler, 290 Main St.,
Memphis. This house is too well and
favorably known throughout this section
to need commendation from us. Suffice
to say that Mr. AVilkins is not only an
energetic and live merchant, but a true
and tried gentleman as well. He not
only sells his goods nnd wares very
cheap, but everything purchased of him
may be relied on as represented.
Col. J. G. M. Buffaloe returned from
New York Saturday night, in order to
vote for the Democracy Tuesday. The
Col. never fails to be here on election
day. If all the Democrats were half as
true to their party as Col. Buffaloe, we
would not have lost the election Tuesday.
At this box, which has the largest reg
istered list of voters in the county, only
about half a vote was polled, showing
conclusively that there is entirely too
much apathy among tho people in affairs
of such grave importance.
Going down to the Chamberlin House
to supper, last evening, we met a man
who was making desperate efforts to walk
both sides of the sidewalk at onct.
We finally succeeded in passing between
hint.
The "jug-bellied runt" was in town
night this week, consulting with
some of his Republican confrere/. He
didn't seem to be very hilarious over tho
result in this State, or Virginia either.
Wo hope the Independents feel
perfectly satisfied that all parties bad a
free vote and a fair count. But then,
how about the way Col. J. D. Leflore was
treated; eh ?
The election here was one of (he most
quiet we have ever witnessed.

of Captain Ike Shelby, which occurred
at bis residence aoout ten miles east of

day at 7 o'clock p. m. For sevearl days
lie bad been confined to his bed with a
type of malarial fever, until the mysteri

back to the God who gave it. No man
in the county was better known, no one
more respected, and no one in passing
away would have taken with him more
of the affection and esteem of the peo

during all the years of his active, useful
and honorable life.

Although the election is over, we copy
the following communication from the
Charleston Sentinel, to show what is
thought of our friend Dr. Cage in that
section:
Graball, Miss., Oct. 25, '83.
Editor Sentinel :
The Democratic county convention
which assembled in Charleston recently
did a wise act when the entire vote of
the convention was cast for Dr. Jno. J.
Gage, ot Grenada, for State Senator from
the 86th Senatorial district. It is the
pleasure of your correspondent to have
been personally acquainted with that
distinguished candidate for many years
in fact.all his life he can truthfully testi
fy that the doctor is naturally gifted
with all tne requirement- that go to
make a Slate Senator. Than hint Talla
hatchie county will never have a better
representative.—Thoroughly educated, a
ready debater on any and all subjects, he
will hold a "high hand" among his op
He is a man with whom our
ponents.
people may well and will bo proud of, and
and a re-election to the office which he
will soon fill with entire satisfaction, will
only be left for him to accept or reject.
His course in the State Senate will be
straight forward and onward, hold and
fearless and he will leave no screw un
turned for the advancement of the inter
ests of the people whom lie represents.
Dr. Gage, it is true, has great ambition
but he did not seek the office but the
office him, and he has been triumphant
ly endorsed by the Democrats, auu will
be likewise elected next month. VVe
will give a good vote to him and the
balance of the democratic ticket in No

at this place. Wiil he not?

Two dogs, which ought to have known
better, got into a light in rear of a hotel
yesterday, and in two minutes there was
a jam of people around them. A servant
in the tliree-story window raised the
sash and upset a pan of flour with such
aim that not over four or five of the
crowd escaped marking. Among the
"floury" afterward indentified on the
streets were two judges, two doctors,
three lawyers, four city officials, five
merchants, two insurance men and a
banker. Detroit canin* s having a mill
