Western meat and horses come into the state in creat quantities and commercial fertilizers by the train load, for all of which thecash must be paid either spot or on time. ‘Io raise this cash cotton and tobacco are raised and said and when the debts are paid nothing remains at home to circulate as medinm of exchange.—Litt/eton News he- porter.

Va.,”’ said the man who knew about proverbs, ‘‘thereisa hotel. This is not strange to you, byt probably you haven't been in H——. I have been there. By way of digression, let me remark that in allthese small country towns .of Virginia and its coparcener states it is astonishing how easy it is to arrive and how hard it is to depart. At whatever hour you may have ar- rived, you are certain to take the train after midnight and before 6 o'clock, This arrangement effectual- ; ly spoils the night for sleeping pur- poses or for amusement, but, then, there is no amusement. “To resume, I reached H—— at some seasonable hour and put up at the hotel, did what I had to do and, as I had been up most of the preced- ing night, turned in about 9 o’clock, leaving word at the office to be call- ed at 1 o’clock, as the train left shortly before 2 o’clock. “Tn time Iwas called, so I dressed quickly, paid my bill, seized my bag and hurried to the ‘depot,’ about a block, away. Half along the block I happened to look at the hotel and saw that every lamp in it was out and the house was as dark as pitch. “At the station I found a police man, who scemed pleased to see me. | ‘Haw soon is the train due?’ i asked by way of opening a short conversation. ‘*¢ Bout a hour anda half,’ said he pleasantly. ‘What!’ Lyelled. Then T looked at my watch. It was just iv:.0. “The policeman watched with ju, dicial amusement while I made cer- tain remarks about the hotel people. When I ended—I tovk my time—he! : | said: | “ «Well, now, things sirike people | differently, don’t theys &: month ago there was a felier down to the hotel—had two bags, aresuiar drummer. He left word, eaincs you, to be called for the train and then turned in. But they forgot him —didn’t eall him till after 2; train | on time that night too. “*We-ell, when they remembered | they was ina feeze. First of all, the | elerk—smart chap, that clerk; guess | hotel clerks hez to be smart—the | clerk, he set the clocks back; made about. 1 o'clock | ‘stead of after 2. Then he called | the drummer. The drummer, ho! dressed quick, paid his bill, sume’s | you, grabbed his two grips, one in| each hand, and hurried over here, I) vas here, just as I am tonight, and | carefully, so’s not to excite him too | much too quick, I let him know that | he was an bour behind the train and | that he’d have to wait another 12 | hours or so, just as I let you know, on’y for a difference of time. “ It is apicture ot tae celebrated AKER.
