There is but one consolation that
any man can have during these hot
nights, and that is the reflection
that the little musical, sociable
musquito will keep him company in
his wakeful hours. The musquito
never sleeps any in the night time ;
if he does, he sings and stings while
he sleeps. We have often thought
that the study of his character
would be one of the sublimest and
profoundest subjects that could
engage the attention of mortal man.
The musquito is certainly a wonder
ful and mysterious animal—or bird.

What Bastrop has needed ever
since the war—a first-class grocery
house, such as has just been open
ed by August Leopold.
Mr. Ben McFarlin, one of the
"shooting men" of this journal,
bought one of the fine breech-load
ing guns which Mr. Handy sells,
put it on his shoulder and went to
the woods last Saturday to kill
squirrels. He walked ten miles,
saw twenty squirrels, shot at every
one, and killed only one. 'Twas
not the gun's fault, was it, Ben ?
IT SINGS FOR ALL.
