Greensboro. Dec. 1.—The merchants of

season. Cotton has.been coming in freely
and selling from 7% to 7.85, and a few
fancy bales at 8 cents.
invitations have been Issued to the
marriage of Miss Mary Wadsworth Pe

the Methodist Episcopal church on the

Miss Gillis of Newbern will be married

Tuesday, the 2d.
All our business houses were closed on
Thanksgiving Day and an opportunity
given the hard-worked, closely confined
clerks to slay the innocent birds of the
field without regard to age, color, kind
or previous condition. Why Thanksgiv
ing should be seized upon by almost ev
ery man and boy in the community to
go forth for the purpose of waging an
indiscriminate slaughter of beasts of the
forest and birds of the field is beyond
our comprehension.
The Whist club, composed of the elite
of Greensboro society, was entertained
by Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Kimbrough at
their residence in the country in royal
style on Thanksgiving Day.
Dr. F. M. Peterson and Mrs. Peterson
have returned from a lengthy visit to

Mrs. Phares Coleman of Montgomery
and Mrs. Dr. H. T. Inge of Mobile are in
Greensboro to attend the marriage of
their sister, Miss Mary Peterson. Miss
Mamie Stickney of Atlanta is also on the
same mission.
So far as your correspondent can learn,
the populites of this county are opposed
to a fusion with the republicans. We are
satisfied that if Captain Johnston Is the
nominee of the democratic party the
bulk of the populites in this county will
vole for him.
For the first time in several years the
negroes have some money after settling
for advances, and they are spending it
freely with the merchants. They are
happy over the result of this year’s farm
ing operations and are making contracts
readily for another year.

THE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE.
Is a little longer than that of last year
and the chief feature Is the president’s
recommendation that legal tenders be
retired. On this point Mr Cleveland Is
explicit and emphatic.
There Is disappointment manifested
that more decisive measures were not
taken as to the Venezuelan question, but
then the president has not received Lord
Salisbury's reply to Secretary Olney’s
note. As to Cuba the president suggests
to congress that the lnsuigents be rec
ognized as belligerents, and further rec
ommends that the people of Birming
ham and vicinity be instantly Informed
that Santa Claus will have his head
quarters at the Smith & Montgomery
