a Lady In a Grog-shou.

We take the following from one Of our ex-
changes:
Considerable excitement was created. YES
terday, at one of the fashionable drinking sa-
looms Of this city, by a lady, who. according
to her own statement, Twill soberize the
men," The lady aforesaid who belongs to
apprehension, wen into a bar room and call
ed for a brandy smash with as much non
chahance as a regular male topper. drank the
preparation, deposited a dime, and left. The
barkeeper beeing a handsome man. has struck
for higher wages.
Was the lady disgraced by the act p
Would she fall under censure for calling for
"a brandy smash and paying ''dime" for
it? If SO, what makes it respectable in a
young man, say her brother, for doing pre-
cisely the same thing? The laws and usa-
geso of society, it is true, will not tolerate such
a fragrant act in a lady, but 50 far as the
mere buying and drinking a brandy smash
at the counter Of a grogshop is concerned,
the guilt and sin is precisely the same. The
young man who IS guilty of the act should
lose his claim to the countenance and respect
of society just as fully as the young lady,
The one SHOULD not be held blameless for a
sin that would condemn the other to lasting
infamy. >

Our Story Of the Panic Times.

W. IN this issue, the publication
Of an admirable Story, written by one Of our
oldest. and best contributors. 1t IS a tale of
Broker life-of the vanity and hoIfow-heart-
edness of fashionable soeiety-of the utter pc
euniary ruin attendant upon reckless extrav-
agance and folly, and last, though not least,
of retributive justice to dishonesty and cruel
sy, and of the final triumph of oppressed and
injured virtue
The accomplished writer has happily hit
upon a theme and period, by which ito point
a moral and adorn a tale In these times O
monetary disasters-and when innocence suf
fers from the folies and crimes of Others
The Story will be read with interest and prof
it, from week to week, as We proceed wit
Its publication.
In a short time we win commence the pub
hcation of an extended story, written by 4
L Hicks, Esq-.-whose AESEses are familia
tors. We have not yet-keeived the Man,
script, but are promised itfn due time. Sc,
eraI months will be occupied ia its public;
ton. All who desire the Story in full ha
better subscribe in time.

n. C. Christian Advocate.

III
paper IS drawing to . close, and the Editor,
Rev. R. T. Hefin, calls upon it's friends to raj
ly to its support and to increase its subscrip-
ton. By the talent and industry of its Edi-
tor, its list of subscribers has become quite
respectable in numbers, but it ought to have
been double what it is North Carolina
Methodism needs a home ergan-as do the
Baptists, Presbyterians, &c.-and there are
enough Methodists in North Carolina to give
the Advocate ten thousand subscribers, and
they will do it, if che friends of the paper land
what n. c. Methodist rs not p are true to it
and the cause it advances.

The Proof of the Pudding.

These Liquors have no ~StTyefsiRs in them
The only way to prove this rs to try them"
The above P%OetieGt eOupIet occurs in the
advertisement of a liquor seller residing not
hundred miles from this place We have
seldom met with anything so rare either in
Poetry or whiskey. 1t is virtually saying to-
the consumer: certain liquors have the dead
ly poison, s~trychnine, in them-mine has
not and If you are disposed to doubt my as
~sertion, why, Just 'try Them" and if they
don't Kill you outright you will have the as
surance that | spoke the truth but if they
should happen to injurc you seriously, or
