The RUMoRRp ARRIVAL OF Louis PHILIPPE
1t was rumored yesterday, that the Count de
Neuilly, alias Louis Philippe, alias the ex. King
of the Barbados, alias Mr.. L. p. Orleans, had
arrived in this city in the steamship America.
The announcement created great deal of sur.
prise and excitement Every body enquired
where the count, aiias the ex-king, put up, so
that he might have a peep at the great dethroned;
but up TO the hour of our going to press, we have
not learned that the real, genuine article has
come to light. The fact is, the report was joke,
and capital one, too.
II appears from what we can learn, that one OF
the passengers in the America somewhat re.
sembled in personal appearance, Louis Philippe;
and by way Of a joke, his fellow roy.
agenrs called him Louis Philippe; and when
the newsmen boarded the steamer, some wag
told them that the great dethroned was on board
They made their way to the city and commune
Gated the news to the public, who were induced to
swallow it, because it was so general, and verify
believed that his ex-kingshp was in New York
This is the solution of the riddle; but it must
not surprise our readers, if we at some future
time, inform them that he and other Of the
monarchs Of Europe have sought a residence In
this land of freedom.

ENGLISH, CLASSICAL, MATHE-
NAUTICAL AND MERCANTILE
SCHOOL,.

NHE subscribers beg leave to inform the citizens
| of Wayne and the adjoining counties, that
they have opened an English, Classical, Mercan-
tile and Mathematical School, in the town of
Goldsborough.
The Senior instructor, Mr.. JOHN ROBINSON, is
practical and experienced Teacher, having for
the last ten years stood at the head of his profess
sion ia Europe, as the many fattering testimonials
in his possession will show. William Robinson
flaters himself that he is already favorably known
in this region, as a teacher who has always been
faithful in the discharge of duty, and successful in
imparting instruction. and would, therefore throw
himself upon his old patrons OF Wayne. Lenoir,
and Edgecombe-in which counties he has spent
the last nine years-for a share of that patronage
which they always SO cheerfuIly bestowed upon
him.
Mr.. John Robinson will superiDtend the Eng
Iish, Mercantile, and Mathematical department,
and give instruction in the Italian and French
languages-also in instrumental music, if requir-
ed Vocal music will constitute part OF the daily
exercises of the pupils,
Mr.. William Robinson will superintend the
Classical department.
They have built and fitted up new School
Room, and hope that their effort to establish a
School of high literary merit in this rising and
flourishing town, will not be in vain. They COM
mence it on individual enterprise, and under the
most discouraging circumstances, and rely upon
the merits Of the Institution alone for support.
The School is now in operation, and those who
wish to avail themselves of its advantages, are
ouested to make no delay in entering, that the
classes may be properly and advantageously Or
gained.

subscribers. JOHN ROBINSON,

A STORY OF LEAP YEAR.

Sam Smith sat at home on New Years day

hair was uncombed, his boots were unblack-
attitude, with his heels against the mantel.
piece, smoking cigar. Sam thought to him
self it was leap year, and how glorious it
to pop the question, in accordance with their
ancient privileges. AS he sat watching the
smoke which so gracefully curled, his fancy
glowed with the idea. How delightful it
would be to have the dear creatures fondling
on him, and with tender glances endeavoring
to do the agreeable! AS he meditated, his
heart softened, and he began to feel a squeam-
ish, womanish sensibility diffuse itself over
his feelings, and thought he would faint with
propriety the first time young lady should
squeeze his hand
Rap, rap, rap sounded at the door. Sam
peeped through the Venetian blinds. Mer-
Cyl exclaimed he, if there isn't Miss Jones,
and all in dishabille, and look like fright
goodness gracious must 60 right away
and fix myself up
AS he left the room, Miss Jones entered,
and with composed air intimated that she
should wait. Miss Susan Jones was firm
believer in woman's rights, and that the sea-
son was propitious, she determined to take adj
vantage thereof, and do little counting on her
own hook. 1t was one of womans priviIe-
ges, which had been usurped by the tyrani
man, and she was determined to assert her
rights, in spite of the hollow formalities of a
false system of society.
| Meanwhile, with palpitating heart, Sam
Smith went through a series of personal a.
dornments. The last twist was given to his
collar, the last curl to his whiskers, and, with
white cambria in hand, descended to the par
Tor. Miss Jones rushed to receive him, and
grasping his hand with fervor, said: Dear
est, how beautiful you look accompanying
her words with glance of uEdlsgulsed ADM
ration.
Spare the bushes of modest young man,
said Sam, applying his handkerchief to HI:
face to hide his confusion.
