Their parents 1,/ed in good society, contiguous to schools and all other advantages, of which good society consists. At a dining that had been prepar ed by Mrr;. .Tones, a large collection of their neighbors, with their fandlir ; had assembled to enjoy the loAivitit s of the day. During tho day, while ] tho children were all out at play: some of tho boys engaged in tho pray cf marbles; others in roily hole; the girls amusing themselves by jumping the rope; gathering flowers, and eth er play:;: George threw a bah which accidentally struck the oiti man's due horse in tho eye and put it out. This very naturally created considerable excitement and aroused the attention of the old folks in the house.- Mr. Jones came out and to his great sur prise discovered that his horse's eye was cut. Tie began to enquire who did the act. ITo one replied for some time, when lit'ls George stepped for- j ward Vsmcmbfaring the old story j about Washington) and told his fa-! iher that ho did it. No sooner had he confessed than hisWather picket up a brush broom (plague take the'j things) aud gave him a genteel lar ruping. Delia, during the time, of the ex citement ran against a stand and broke her mother’s tine bowl and pitcher, no one discovering is. But seeing her brother George’s fate she thought that she would raise Wash a lease, and raD out and told her mo ther the sad accident that had hap pened, and to her surprise received a worse whipping than her brother. The children then laid down a rule that it was better to be found guilty than to confess. A Bold Bobbery.— A bold robbe ry was committed in Blakely ou Tuesday night 1 -mi. One oi the front windows of Col. B. 11. Robinson's 3lore was prized open with a chop 1 axe, the store entered and goods to the amount of several hundred dol-j lars tel eu out. The robbers vrent it i. j&vy on clothing and boots; took ail the money in the drawer, amounting to only a few dollars. Several racks of flour taken, but no meat. About half a box of the best tobacco in the store was canned otf, but this they found too heavy tor them, and they dropped it iu the alley below the stcro. Tho rogues must have taken fright during their operations, as they left several pairs of shoes on the piazza and also left the chop axe be hind them which they had used in opening the window. No clue to tho robbers has been discovered, and the probability now is, they will escape with their booty, free of punishment. Our advice to everybody is, to keep their gans in order, watch their pro perty, and whenever they catch a thief in the act, stop his plundering at once and forever. This was a very boid robbery, the store being in as public a j iace as there is in town, and everything being done through the front window. —Early County News. Eli Perkins in his element at last.

He was anxious to cstafa- j lish as a support to Ms throne a pew- ; erful aristocracy, which in splendor and (to do him justice) in tka bril liancy of it3 achievements will rival the old nobility cf Prance. He forgot, however, that though monarchy and deocracy can exist and have existed without prescription, an aristocracy to be venerable must absolutely bear tiie seal oi'antiquity.
