Weather,
Festenlay was a specimen of a change—
not a healthy one —of the weather. An East
wind arose, chilling one’s body ; and if no
precautionary measures were taken, colds
and soughs, and other disagreements, will be
the result Clouds and sunshine varied the
hours.
A Portrait
Strolling in Schreiner’s, on yesterday, our
eye was attracted to the well executed por
trait, in oil, of the Rev. James S. Lamar,
Pastor of the Christian Church, of tins
city—executed by Dr. Kingsmore, of Per.
kins' Gallery. Call and see it.
Explosion.
Some little excitement was produced on
the corner of Broad and Mclntosh streets,
about 9 o'clock last evening, by the report of
an explosion of some kind. It turned out to
he a torpedo thrown from a window in the
second story of the Washington Hall build
j«, on Mclntosh street—hurled by nobody
knows who. It made a noise and drew a
irowd. Somebody, probably, practising a
bit ol devilment. *
Superior Court.
At the session, yesterday, a nol pros, was
tillered in the case of William Priutuu and

“Witches," “fuiries," and “hobgoblins,
and “little gentlemen,” are household words.
A thousand stories new and old have filled
volumes, aud evou newspapers condescend
to notice these fancy articles from time to
time. Modernly speaking, the myth ot the
spiritual circles has taken their places ; but
for a geuuine witch, we commend the follow,
ing to our youug mule friends, und solemnly
warn them to keep a sharp look out;
“When well form’d features, beauty’s offspring
(peak,
And health's sweet roses tinge the youtMul
cheek,
Whou tho bright eye its dangerous power dis
plays,
Though modesty restrain-* Its softost rays
When words polite und scntiiiants refined,
Aro vouchers for tho beauty of tho mind,
Or mail! or widow—ho sho poor or rich—
My heart iu terror whispers,‘There’* a witch.’”

Law Ist. Pride in woariug loug hair, like
women's hair, others wearing borders of hair,
and cuttiug and curling and immodest (?) laying
out of hair, Grand Jurors to presout and tho
Court to punish by fine aud corrcefiou.
What would we all conic to it such a law
was of force now? Phew! Some Puritan
barber must have got that up, sure.
Law sth. Tobacco takors aud common swear
ers, the constable directed to presont to the next
magistrate, to bo punishod at discretion
This would not'hurt much about those
days, for all the magistrates use “tho weed”
more or less, and like tho parable of tho
Adulterous Woman, would scarcely have
the “face" to “cast the first stone” at a
delinquent devotee.
I,aw 6th. for drunkenness, tho offender to
pay ton shillings; excessive drinking, three and
four pence; tippling about half an hour, a
crown.
In these days it is questionable if the
Judge would not be amenable to the charge
himself; at any rate would have to be a
pretty shrewd expert to determine the
various stages and fines—especially the
last. One tipple might make “ drunk"
come, with modern whiskey, in five minutes
—one sixth of the time ; then we suppose
a sixth of the fino would be tbo penalty.

No doubt this was a wrong judgment,
and that Captain Stone was right.

idleness and stubbornness, is censured, to be
severely whipt, and to bo kept in hold.
In these days there are many “little"

who aro amenable to this decree, but as
whipping has been abolished wo suppose
they will escape the rigors of the law,
while slander and idleness run riut iu every

himself at the City Hall, and presented
