Tiie programme offered for this oc*

Y oung Men’s Amateur Club;
■/0t,0<7 Life, a beautiful comedy; a
d Olio ; and the laughable
dtomime of Simon's Mishaps.

<ll tbr a Nan.
Tuesday mottling !«•», a colored
damsel, rejoicing in t|ie euphonious
cognomen of Pauline Johnson, institu
ted suit against a sister mid a woman,
designated as Sarah Gilbert, for scald
ing her in the face with a pan of hot
water,'on the Sth instant. The case
was examined by Justice Olin, and the
defendant fined in the sum of $5 and
costs, for her very vindictive be
havior in the matter.
Yesterday morning, before Justice
Phinizy, Sarah arraigned the scarred
Pauline for casting sundry brickbats
at her, to the great danger of her per
sonal appearance—knocking out there
by a couple of her front ivorys.
The provoking instrument of the dis
turbance of the pacific relations of
these two sisters, seems to be a con
tention as to the right of each tp the
conjugal affections of one Thomas
Howard, of dusky hue, who possesses
charms alike to each.
The scene which ensued at J usticc
Phinizy’s office, upon the appearance
of the gay'and dashing Thomas with
the incensed Sarah is wdrjthy of a house-,
painter's brush. The loving Pauline
gave full vent to her pent-up feelings,
and swooned away, with the graco-of
a fallen angel The knowledge that
her adored Thomas was a party to the
prosecution was too much for her
“pheelinks.” She soon recovered, how
ever, without the aid of restoratives,
and importuned Thomas, by all the
sweet memories of the past, to let the
matter drop. Thomas feeling tliat he
was an injured man—having paid $5
for the indiscretions of his Sarah—
could not discover it in those “lamps.”
He doubtless experienced that
"To be wroth with these we love
Doth work like madness on the brain?’
Continued importunity, however,
won him over, and the case was dis
missed, on Paulino agreeing to pay
costs.

Cows Stolen.
Sikc Williams (colored),was brought
before J ustice Olin, yesterday morning,
at the instance of Mr. Frank Canolan,
charged with stealing from the latter,
on Monday last, a cow and yearling,
the property of the McMann orphan
children.
In the evidence it was developed that
the prisoner offered for sale, on Mon- 1
day, to Mr. Lawrence, a butcher, the
cows alleged to have been stolen on '
that day. Mr. Lawrence declined to 1
purchase unless Williams would bring
a certificate of rightful ownership. The 1
prisoner claimed to have received them
in part payment for labor performed 1
for a. citizen of Burke county, and at
once went in search of the roquirod 1
certificate. lie soon returned, but J
the document he presented did not
satisfy Mr. Lawrenee. He went again 1
and brought another, which was like- t
wise unsatisfactory. A third time he <
appeared at Mr. L.’s butcher-pen with
a new certificate of ownership. The f
nature of the procaedihgs increased i
the suspicions of Air. Lawrence, who
took the cows into his possession,
where they were nfterwwrd H identified
by Mr. Canolan, from whom they 7 had i
been stolen.
Justice Olin gave Williaips the ben
efit of the law in such cases—sentencing
him to twelve months confinement at
hard labor.
Mules for tleorgia.
The Lexington (Ky.) Obserrer, of
the 19th instant, says: “Onr readers
very little idea of the magaitudo
of our mule trade with the South.
Since the I Oth of last August, ofie
stable alone (Patrick’s) has shipped
eight hundred and eighteen mules,
which, with few exceptions, went to
Atlanta, Ga. Mr. J. W. Burbridge,
of’Bath county, passed through on
Monday with another lot, bound for
Macon. In addition to the above, Mr.
Patrick has sent off, in the same time,
6ne hundred and ninety-two horses.
He reports both the mule and horse
market as being quite active, and that
drovers are obtaining fair prices for
their stock-”
What In Saved.
Ingoing North by the upper route,
passengers leave Augusta, on the South
Carolina Railroad, at 6 o’clock a. in.,
and connect at Graniteville with the
' Columbia and Augusta Railroad, at
• half past 7 a. nr, arriving in Colum
i bia at 1:20 p. in., instead of 4 p. m.,
! per South Carolina Railroad, a saving
* of near three hours’ time.
For Augusta, passengers on the Co
lumbia and Augusta Road leave Co
lumbia at 8:00 a. m.—two hours and
twenty minutes later than the pas
senger train on the South Carolina
Railroad— making connection at Gran
iteville with the tatter at 2:1.1 p. m.,
and reach Aagusta at 8:30 p. m.

A Seasonable Present.
Our friend, C. II. ; Johannsen is the
ace of hearts—when they are trumps.
He has donated oiw disseefing table
with a mof«t acFcpt Mile 1 subject, idthe
shape ot*a bottle of genuine Jamaica
Rum, which we have sampled, and pro
nounce “a drake’s eye article ” This
bottle, we presume, is only one of'
many which Johannsen keeps for the
accommodation of visitors to Roseville
Garden, out on the Mange survey.' It
Is capital bait.
Bncoii Thieves.
Some enterprising thieves, about
7 o’clock last evening, stole from the
meat house of E. A. Neher, on Wash’
ington street, a couple of strips of
breakfast bacon. Not satisfied with
their first success, in gettirfg off with
out detection, they returned, and at
tempted to.steal two hams suspended
to the front blinds of the meat house,
when the watchful eyes of Jim —,
an employee of Mr. Neher, discovered
their rascality. Jim pursued them,
when they dropped the hiim which
they.had lifted, and left without identi
fication.

Tkhbible Sufferings of a Family.
—On last Sunday the pastor.of one of
our city churches announced that Rev.

American Colonization Society, had
