I am down here among the post oak hills of pested as to matters in old Bates. This is a very rough country, cov- ered with post oak and sage brush. | Cotton is the main crop here. Cat- tle are very high. Very interior calves are selling at $10. Corn 1s worth 50 cents and very scarce. Society 1s quite different here from what it is in Bates county and Mis- | souri. It is not an uncommon bacco as a reguler and with appar- ently as much satisfaction the men. We had quite a freeze and a trost on the night of the 12th inst. killing all the green cotton. I think this isa much better ch- | mate to live in than Bates county. Last winter I lived south ot here about three hundred miles, and it was very pleasant. Did not see any snow during the winter season. Grass was green all winter, and cat- tle fattened on it, but the summer got too hot for me so I came north. I think the next move I make will be back to old Bates. Jacos Wuire. as There is no doubt that our stoves are good, our prices low, our terins reasona- dle and consequently our sales are large.

In the center of the room was hung a large and magnificent wedding bell made of evergreens ‘and studed with white flowers. Over the mantel was 2 splendid arch of letters in cedar wishing happiness to the bride and groom. The ceremony was proceeded and concluded by an elegant march, per- | formed by Miss Cora Walls, a cous- in of Miss Corder. After the ceremony was conclud- ed and congratulations over with the company proceeded to an elegant supper in the spacious dining hall provided for the guests. It was also decorated with ever- greens and flowers, the most con- spicuous of which was a monogram at the end of the room, W. & LC. with the lucky horseshoe between. After supper, in company with the bride and groom, we repaired to the station where we bid them farewell on their tour through the east.
