Passing by the corner, memorable from old
associations, and made historical as having the
honor to support the weight Of this Office, We
were attracted by an unusual noise and commo-
ton. In an excitement bordering on distraction
We ran in, fearing from the noise, and the ami
mated appearance Of the crowd rushing in and
out, that something dreadful had happened. The
first horrible thought was, that B. Fl. Lovelace,
and his partner D. Wheeler, wishing to de-
stroy themselves, and, involve us and the
Herald in one common pi, had pulled away
the props or that his p;nk-eyed planting pota-
toes had sprouted and forced the roof off. But
it proved to be something else altogether, it was
only the opening Of his new goods. just arrived,
which caused the noise, aud attracted the unusual
crowd twas not to be wondered at either for
their stock is large, good and worthy Of atten'
ton. ---

A THOUSAND GUINEAs FOR A LIFE.

At that moment those in the boat were pite-
ously called upon by lady about twenty-thrce
years of age, who, with face which was, it is
stated, livid with horror, shrieked out an offer of
"a thousand guineas if you'll take me in." But
in that solemn hour millions OF money would
have been accounted vaueless, and to return
must have resulted in deStructi on all.

THE CAPTAINS LAST ACT.

The Captain, who was walking calmly up and
down the poop, had refused to leave the ship, but
just before the boat put off he had the consider
alton and the presence of mind TO give those in
the boat their course" He told them that it
lay East Northeast to Brest, which was correct.
Before the boat could be got off it was in great
danger of being sucked down with the ship,
which was rapidly settling beneath the water.

HAND HIN ARoUND.-We never keep secret
that, which, the publicity of, will in way affect
the public interest, and more especially when it
must largely benefit, therefore we communicate
all that we know in connection with a matter
which will greatly exercise the public mind. It
is not generally known perhaps that ". q Webb,
captain in the late confederate service, socalled
and latterly quite successful in merchandising in
this place. took passage from here, about ter days
ago in the cars, having with him a considerable
ai cunt of cash. Some doubts were entertained
at the time, by US and few others who watched
bis motions, that he intended going on bender,
a regular spread, but we are, happy to say that
he went on a charitable mission, spreeing did not
enter into his calculations. The object was to
purchase first class stock of goods, cheap and
low down, so as to accommodate the wants of the
community. He has succeeded beyond expecta-
tons, and the poor and needy, and public gene
rally, are invited to attend his large sales which
commence to-day.

LOCAL ITEMS.

FASHION is inexorable, and everybody tries
to follow it in some particular or other. Better
be out Of the world than out Of the fashion.
Mustaches are the prevailing style now, every
grade or shade Of color, size or shape are most
assiduously cultivated, combed, eurled, twisted,
twined pulled and pematumed, and what for ? to
crafty little vanity? oh no, only to please the
dear girls, who dote on these upper lip appenda-
ges. The labor, toll, anxiety and expense atten-
dant on these efforts to please should be highly
Appreciated as no doubt they are. Our musta-
che, however, was not cultivated and brought
through incipiency and tender age for any such
weakness, oh no. but as a preventative to colds,
as barrier to foul gases, floating PARTICLES as an
agreeable pasime in which to occupy the fingers
in giving the graceful twist, and last but not
least to show the result of science in the impro-
we'd style and cultivation. 1t is not to be sneezed
at With some pain We confess that a suspicion
is entertained, that while giving it twist the
other day in a private manner, that we were
snickered at by two fair ladies, who happened to
be in a favorable position for observation. 1t is
mortifyng truly, after so much labor, to be snick
cred at, and we implore the dear creatures to be
more considerate ID future.
