BURGLARY. The store of ID. Fergu-
son, No. 50 Commerce street, was broken
into on Thursday night, but owing to
the vigilance of the police on the Wide
Water street beat, the burglars were
thwarted i'm their designs, became
alarmed at the approach Of the police
and made their escape. One of the po-
lice watched the store while the other
was sent by the Captain of the Watch
to notify Mr.. Ferguson's clerk what had
happened. We predict that the watch"
men on that beat are of the old stock i,
and men that know their duty. Such
partners have no need to 60 fourabreast,
and we feel now that our steam engine
is perfectly safe, as long as such men are
permitted to be OH our beat.

AN Hour or JOY. We had the mex

age, in our opinion, upon this mundane

could in no manner give q titheiof her
dt scliption. We are rapturously in love,
and who can blame us? May the object
of our devotion and love live to see
many returns of yesterdays happiness.
That little hour of joy to us was worth

SALE OF REAL ESTATE. Folger,
Cartwright and Co., auctioneers and
real estate agents, appear to be quite
successful in their real estate sales, from
the fact that in the last three days they
have effected two large sales, viz: The
Mallory farm, in Princess Anne county,
was sold by them to party in New
York for ST. 900 cash, and Dr. Bakers
farm, in Norfolk county, was sold to a
party, also from New York, for $2S, 600,
ON cash terms. The above sales are con-
sidered good, and they show a lively de.
gree of business energy on the part OF
the firm to find foreign purchasers for
real estate i'm this section.
