jewelry or silverware should not fail to
call on him. Mr. Her is receiving large

The expenses of the Circuit Court of this
county for the two terms held during the
year 1883, amount to $2,6:16,14, 'as follows,
to-wit: March term costing $1,126,97, and
the September term $1,509,17. The differ
ence in the cost of terms is owing to their
difference in length—that of the first being
less than five days, and that of the last
eight. This is a verv favorable showing
w hen compared with the court expenses of
1881, which amounted to $3,802,23. For
this reduction the county is indebted to
the admirable exooutive ability of the pre
siding Judge, Hon. J. B. Chrisman.—

A Trlhate t« Hen I Merit.
Among the many deserving mercantile
Arms of South Mississippi, none has reach
ed a higher standard of excellence, or is
more worthy of public confidence ami
trust, than are
Mkssrs. Earns .V- Lyki.l.
of tlio thriving town of Wesson. These
gentlemen, with a comparatively small
capital, '.qieiieii business in Wesson in 1S77,
and knowing the value of perscrverAiico,
close application to business, honesty ami
fair dealing, adopted these principles at
the outset, rolled up their sleeves and went
to work, feeling assured that thoy would
lie accorded that generous patronage and
contideuee which such qualities always
command. They worn not disappointed,
their business has steadily increased from
the day they opened, and to-day they may
lie regarded as among the liest established
anil largest merchants we have in this sec
tion. They buy as much, if not more cot
ton than any other merchants in Wesson —
always paying the very highest cash prices
—and it would lie next to impossible lor a
farmer or any other person to go into their
immense store and call foranytliing within
the province of a general merchandise and
supply store and fail to find it. In fact,
they can supply anything from a cambric
needle to a cane mill anil steam engine; nr
from the most common article of clothing
to goods of finest quality. In short, the
establishment is an honor to the town of
Wesson, which is fast becoming noted as a
trading point, and is a striking illustra
tion of what may lie accomplished by the
energy, business tact and fair dealing
which characterize its clever proprietors.
If there is one other feature about tlie
establishment deserving ofsnecial mention,
it is the accommodating and obliging
spirit of it* employees. These, headed by
Mr. H. A. Kant, the efficient and accom
plished book-keeper, seem each the right
man in the right place, and are cleverness
personified.
Mliull are Oiler them is tVelcoine?
We have before spoken of wbat might
have been accomplished by advertising the
peculiar advantages of this town and sec
tion in the Northwest before the advent of
the Southern Laud Excursions of the Illi
nois Central. As nothing was done in this
direction, something very beneficial may
yet bo accomplished by our citizens meet
ing together, extending a special invita
tion to the excursionists to stop off at this
place, and appointing a committee to meet
them, show them what wo have, and ex
tend any other courtesies that may be
deemed advisable.
The excursion train will pass here on
the night ofOet. 2-Stli, and passengers will
lie provided with stop-over tickets, good
either way, for 30 days. Let it a hold a
meeting and make the effort. It will not
cost anybody much time or trouble, and
mav be productive of great good to the
community.

During tlie past few days the fiery ele
ment has been on the rampage.
On last Monday night the Shingle Mill
of tlie Adams Brothers, situated about 4
miles southwest of town, was destroyed by
fire, with heavy loss to its proprietors.
The same evening Mr. Ike Hoskins lost
about 35,000 feet of lumber at his mill near
the lino of the H. it H. Railroad. The tire
was accidental, having started in some
sawdust. No insurance.
Still again, on Monday evening, the old
Chamberlain Mill, and some negro cabins
a few miles south of town, were destroyed
liy tire.
In addition to these burnings, the woods
havo caught fire in several places and
burned over a large area, owing to the con
tinued dry weather. Oh, for a little damp
ness.
A liong I'elt Want Supplied.
The above has reference to the great
Capitol Clothing Emporium, which has
just been established on State street,
Jackson, Miss., opposite Capitol square. A
few days ago while in Jackson, wo visited
this establishment and found it all and
even more than is claimed for it in an
advertisement which appears elsewhere.
Every article of gents’ wear,from the finest
and most costly to the cheap and ordinary,
can be found here, and at prices which
arc plainly marked on the goods and are
truly surprising. Measures are taken and
special suits ordered far below what it
ordinarily costs to have clothes made by a
tailor. Jackson lias long stood in need of
just such a store as this, and the general
verdict is that Messrs. Freidman,"Abraham
& Co., the accommodating proprietors,
have tilled the hill. Our young friend A.
W. Siuythe has beeiietigaged by this house,
to whom we specially refer the readers of
The Leader.

We have seen evidence going to prove
that one 11. C. Coffey, who has been going
about through this anil adjoining counties
selling a preparation purported to be made
by Dr. Stapp, of Vicksburg, is both an im

He is a fraud of the first water, and is now
badly wanted at McComb City by D. A.

The house of A. Virden, Jackson, Miss.,

which will repay perusal. Mr. A. Virdeu
