STAUNTON HASH, Still it is cold; garden-making is pro gressing slowly. Mr. Joseph Somers and lady attend ed the Odd Fellows anniversary at Paris, Illinois, this week. How is that buggy drive? Well, Scott, you know there is not much in a name anyhow; we take ours at home now. Bro. Tresad has not sold all that ware yet; however, he has changed his mind about the buggy; he says he wants a three hundred dollar buggy for two hundred dollars—payable in ware, you will understand.
