Up in the Air. —While on our
rounds this morning we observed a
man, evidently in the employ of the
Western Union Telegraph Co., adjust¬
ing the broken wires. While in the
prosecution of his labors, one of the
spurs on his foot by which he is enabled
to climb, failed to stick in the pole upon
which he was ascending, and losing his
balance he came down to mother earth
in a much quicker time than it is pos¬
sible for us to record the fact. Fortun¬
ately no serious injuries were sustained,
but the sudden unexpected collapse
caused the man to open bis eyes and
to express in language plain and simple
words which have a rather serious im¬
moral meaning.

terday morning while the steamship
Gate City was lying at her wharl, a
stranger by the name of Ogden, while
promenading the forward deck of the
steamer was suddenly seized with con-1
V ulsions and fell backwards into a
comatose state. He was taken to the
saloon and every attention paid him
that could be rendered. The party
had engaged passage to New York on
the steamer. ITe is supposed to hail
from Union, Hudson county, New Jer¬
sey. He had been an inmate of the
Marine Hospital since December 1st,
heart, being treated for the affection of the
of which, no doubt, he died from.
Swindling Operation, —A young
man whe keeps a small store on Bryan
street, was victimized out of a hat in a
neat way, about eight o’clock last eve¬
ning. A wild eyed individual called
in and desired to look at some hats.
An assortment was displayed, from
which he selected a fine one. While
examining and trying the same on his
head, another man made his appearance
at the door, and cried for assistance.
The would he purchaser hastily started
out and crossing the street, was soon
lost to view.
The proprietor was disconsolate on
the failure of return of the man or the
hat, and laid the matter before a
magistrate this morning.
Facts Focused. —Things are not
generally known as they ought to be.
That the evening song of the night¬
ingale is nice, but the morning lay of
the barn door fowl is nicer. That the
end of the longest rail is blubber. That
ships they are frequently put into stays, hut
only wear barnacles when they go
to sea. That lovers quarrels begin,and
that many end with a smack. That
although one swallow may not make a
summer, an inverted tack on a chair
will make one spring, That the real
and only system of bookkeeping is—
not to lend them. That it is very
difficult to keep your own peace of
mind if the wife of your bosom will
insist on frequently giving you a piece
of hers.
Sudden Demise of Mr. Richard
Bradley, Jr. —We are pained to an
nounce the sudden death of Mr. Richard
Bradley, Jr., which happened at the
Pulaski House, yesterday evening, at
about eleven o’clock.
Mr. Bradley has been an invalid for
Lcomplication for several months of past, suffering contracted. from
diseases
was born in 1842, he was a dutiful son,
and affectionate parent, and a true
friend, and his lost will be deplored by
many friends. *
He was well known to our commu¬
nity as being connected with two of our
well knowned and popular hotels—the
Screven and the Pulaski—and his loss
will be felt very materially in this re¬
spect. He leaves wife and three children
a
to mourn his loss. May this sad
bereavement be sanctified to their good,
Sneak Thieves and Tramps. —We
would advise all of our citizens to be
on the sharp look cut for sneak thieves
and tramps. Every week our city has
a new addition to her population in
the way of straggling this desperadoes, and
we give them warning in time as a
gentle reminder- of the fact that there
is nowr a very unruly and not altogether
desirable make up in the population of
our city.
Last evening several of our efficient
policemen were and on the quivivc as to the
character whereabouts of one or
two suspicious characters, who were
strolling about in a manner creating
suspicion. We doubt not but what
they will be trapped and brought be¬
fore the court of justice, if they continue
in their game of what seems to be not
altogether pursuit legitimate or in accordance
with the of an honest living.

A Word for the Louise Ktng As¬
sociation. —While it is impossible for
this new association, one productive of
so much good, and whose object deserves
the commendation and support of every
right-mind man and woman, to be al¬
ways on the qui vive, yet it is always in
accordance with their manifest duties
and prescribed rules and regulations to
have cases reported to them from time
to tim°, by which, if circumstantial ev¬
idence can be had against the parties
who inflict pain and outrage upon
dumb animals, the cases could be pros,
ecuted to the utmost extent of the law,
and the parties be made to bear the
penalty prescribed for their ill treat¬
ment and inhuman conducts towards
poor beasts of burden.
Ytesterday we observed two negroes
