A very enjoyable moonlight ride was indulged in last evening. A party composed of five couples and one out rider, who gazed lovingly at the moon and fell ycry lonely and envious of the more lucky ones who had “their girls” with them. They went out to Mr. Mollcr's, on the McIntyre road, and serenaded the family, who came out and insisted that the party come in and partake 01 some ■wine and cake,which they very joyfully did, and were royally treated. The return to town was enlivened with singing. Several people were serenad ed in town, but all had retired with the exception of Dr. Hopkins, who, like Mr. Moller, insisted on all going in the house, where a bountiful supper awaited the hungry party, - who did justice to the goodies. The party was composed of Mrs. Dr. Hopkins and Mr. Sam Mallard, who acted in the capacity of chape rones, Misses George Mitchell, Stella Baker and Lucille Linton; Messrs Maurice Grausman, Chas. Bondurant, Chas. Smith and Chas. Graves. Police Court. • The penitents’ benches were not very full yesterday morning.

I noticed a house for rent on the cor ner of Broad and Clay streets. I had recently received letters from friends, requesting me to rent a good house for them in Thomasvillc, for tho coming season. I took the liberty to open the gate and enter the yard, with a view to examine the house and lot—un occupied and said for rent. 'While I was on the lot I saw a man under a large scuppernong grape vine, on said lot. I did not know him, but I asked if there was any harm in a fellow eat ing a few grapes. lie said, none whatever. We then ate a few grapes, and while wo were under the vine several other gentlemen came up nnd joined us. And in justice to my self, I will mention tho names of those I knew: Mr. Joe Mardrc, Mr. Amos Bottoms and A. P. Ilarlcy. It seems, however, that Mr. Amos Bottoms was a spy, or at least reported me to the owner of the property for trespassing. 1 have seen quite a num ber of people, before and since, go on the said lot nnd help themselves to the grapes, and nothing said. The next day, as I was going to my dinner, the Sheriff of Thomas county arrested me on the streets of Thomas villc, on a warrant charging me with trespassing on 011c J. A. Lin ton’s lot, and eating grapes, to the amount of ten cents. I told the Sheriff I was on said lot, and did eat a few grapes, but I had no idea that 1 was trepassing, under the circum stances. I attempted to explain the nature of my business on the lot, but he said I would have to give bond or go to jail. I told him I could give the bond, but preferred to go at once beforo Judge Mitchell and settle the case. We then went to his office, hut the Judge was not in. The Sheriff then turned me over to his deputy, with orders to put me in jail. • I in sisted I could give the boud, if lie (the deputy) would go with me to sec some merchants on Broad street, not far away. His reply wns: "I am ordered to put you in jail, mid come on.” On my way to jail my friend Mr. W. C. Eason, happened to discover my position, and came to my relief n nd stood my bond for fifty dollars, for my appearance at court, on the following Wednesday, Itli of Sept. It was the first case of nny kind I ever lmd in court, nnd my friends advised me not to employ counsel, as nothing could he made of the case, and the cost would not, perhaps, exceed three or four dollars. But I found the cost wns one of the most important features of the case, nnd while I quietly yield ed,’and paid the cost demanded of me, 813.75, not including 81.00 paid the sheriff for writing my bond, on the day of my arrest, I herewith publicly protest against tho whole proceeding, and feel that I have been very un justly treated, anil perhaps seriously injured in this community, aipl in justice to myself. 1 have deemed it necessary to publish this card of vin dication. S. D. Allison, Formerly of Hillsboro, X. C. Squire Mardre says that Mr. T. C. Mitchell will make eighty bales of cot ton on 140 acres. He also says that Mr. Mitchell has a superb cane crop.

Ill retiring from the firm of Fife k Beverly, 1 do so with reluctance, as my connection with this business and my partner, for the past year and a half, lias been of the most pleasant nature.
