LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION WEDNESDAY MORNING...June 6, 1866 Would be Miscegenation. —A case occurred in Columbus, on Thursday, which created considerable laughter and much disgust. It was that of the State vs. Win. Spinks, whiteman, and Juliana Thompson, Thompson spelt with a “P,” a female darkey of about eighteen years, of African ’scent. Spinks is a drayman of low degree, about twenty-five years of age, who lives in Banks’ buildiug. He has had intercourse, not permitted by law, with the frail Julia of the ugly phiz, for the past four years, so witnesses testified. The police, on Thursday night about 11 o’clock, made a sortie on Spinks’ room, found the two together, lights out, etc., and lodged them in the “Lock-up.” Yesterday morning the Grand Jury found a true bill against them for “fornication,” and that after noon they were tried. The examina tion was rich, rare and racy, hut made many blush to think that Spinks, of the patched clothes, was white. J. M. Rus sell was assigned to the defense, G. E. Thomas, jr., to that of the inky Juliana. Mr. Peabody represented the State. Spinks admitted he loved the negro, and would marry her to save trouble. The general impression was that he was a fool or idiot. Juliana said nothing. The Judge first sentenced Spinks to three months imprisonment in the county ja" Juliana one month, and cautioned the Sheriff to keep them apart. Upon an examination he found the statute gave him larger powers, and he sentenced Spinks, for twelve months on the chain gang ; Juliana to three months in the same institution—both to be separated. Judge Worrill stated that he would most assuredly sentence the next offender, brought before him on a similar charge, to receive thirty-nine lashes on his back, and would see the punishment enforced. —The National Intelligencer gives a severe rebuke, when it asks, in reply to certain brutal assaults upon the fame and character of the ladies of the South, now so common in the Radical papers: ‘‘What man of honor or generosity would now seek to bring shame and hurt upon the women of the South— the mothers and daughters—for adher ing to the fortunes of their husbands and sons who were contending in arms for that right of State secession that nearly every Radical leader had before supported ?" —“Ah, Jemmy,” said a sympathizing friend to a man who was just too late for the train, “you did not run fast enough.” “Yes I did,” said Jimmy; “I ran fast enough, but I did not start soon enough." —Pork and beans, it is said, are to be provided for Yankees in the restau rants at the great French Exposition, next year. They will be novelties to such Americans as visit Paris. The true pork and beans Yankees are not often seen on the Bouleyards. —Mrs. Housman, of Belvernon, Pa., recently hired a ruffian to shoot and kill her husband. She then dragged the dead body to a river and threw it in. Mrs. H., we fear, is a bad tempered lady. —Two hundred sacks of corn, brand ed “Peace,” arrived in Memphis, Tenn the other day, for the destitute of Ala bama. It was hauled by the draymen free of charge. —A liquor dealer in Philadelphia was astonished recently by a hod-carrier who called for, and drank successively three half pints clear whiskey, without any visible effect upon his health or nerves. —ln alluding to the fact that corsets are now made of leather, a eotemporary suggests that it is compliance with the poet’s injunction : “Hide, oh ! hide those hills of enow.” —“There now!” said a little girl, while rumaging a drawer in a bureau, “there now, grandpa has gone to Heaven without his spectacles.” —A man named Ellis, has made preparations to hatch “sixteen thousand chickens” by steam, during the coming season, on his ranch on the American river, in California. —The late Mr. Daily, of New York, was aged 106 when he died. How a man could live so long, who died Daily, is not explained. —When is a baby not a baby ? When its a teething (tea thing). Rail Roads. Change of Schedule. South Carolina R. R.

LOOK TO YOUR ROOFS Having secured the state RIGHT OF THE PATENT MICA ROOFING, We are now prepared to supply it in any quantity, or to appiy it to Roofs. The MICA ROOFING is adapted to build ings of every description, and can be ap plied to Steep or Flat Roofs, or over old Shingle Roofs, without removing the shin gles. We recommend its use on Factories, Foundries, Store Houses, Cotton Sheds, Railroad Depots and upon all buildings where steam is used, and a Fire Proof re quired. It costs about one-half the price of Tin. It is cheap, durable, and is easily and quickly applied. The upper surface of the Roofing is protected from the action of tho weather, by its covering of Ground Mica, which is pressed into the water proof com position, making a hard surface of stone, beautiful in appearance, and a sure protec tion against fire. We shall also keep constantly on hand a supply of INDIA-RUBBER ROOFING PAINT, which is the best coating that can be used for Tin Roofing. Leaky Tin Roofs can bo readily repaired, so as to last many years, at a trifling cost, which would in maov cases savo the expenso of anew lloof.
