A SPLENDID RACE.-Officer Brinkley had a
good time yesterday morning. a young man
threw a rock and hit a negro boy belonging to
DIR. Ford, on the head. Brinkley undertook
to arrest him, but he took leg bail. He ran
through stores, jumped out of windows as
1.-the as fox. Darling down College street
be entered the Planters Bank at the side door,
took to the back yard, jumped in the back
window, landing upon half ream of Bank
Bills, which the Cashier was signing, ran
through the parlor and out the front door, up
the Square to Market street, and disappeared
in the labyrinths of the Inn. Brnkley was no
where. But he traced his victim TO his hiding
place, and waited patiently for him to emerge,
when he arrested him and took him before the
Recorder But the best laid schemes Of mice,
and men will sometimes fail. Our hero was
up to snuff On a sudden he darted out the
door and turned the key after him, leaving
half dozen officers and the Recorder in lin
DO. Since that time he has not written TO his
friend Brinkley, and that officer despairs of
ever hearing from him again.

UNFORTUNATE AcOIDENT.-Our old, we'll
known and clever fellow citizen. THOMAS ".
Chiffon, met with serious accident on yes
terday morning He was engaged in erecting
q scaffolding at the Court House, when part
of the work gave way, and be fell with it. In
falling, pistol dropped from his pocket and
exploded, and the ball took effect in his right
arm, opposite the elbow, severing the two
main arteries, and badly SCATTERING the bone.
The wound was 81 bad that immediate ampu-
tation was found indispensable, and his arm
was taken off. Last evening he was doing
well.
Mr.. Chiffon is a carpenter by trade, hard
working, industrious and highly esteemed cit
izeD, and his misfortune elicits the sympathies
