tirely, yesterday. He had not a single
case-not even nibble. to encourage
him to persevere. In his wrath and
indignation he walked to the Bodiam
coal mines, with a view Of buying the
shaft to cut up into post-holes, to sell
at auction. The lessee of the mines
declined to sell until there is More
wood in the country. We met Bro
Nelson returning last evening, as we
passed down Main Street, looking
desolate and disappointed.
BEFORE BEN. STINsoN.-My Lord,
Chief Justice Stinson, got bite yes
terday, and having the dead wood y
on it, like a skillful angler who loves
the sport, was in no hurry to dispose
of the case. 1t is charged that a
young man named Philip Butz, while
laboring under some strange halluci-
nation, drew up note for $50 in his
own favor, and in a moment of
Observation-Disclosures, signed to it the
name of Joseph Schenkg of
Union Township. Much to the
surprise of Philip, he discovered that
a number of old fogies, a great many
years ago, had combined together and
called that kind Of thing forgery, and
had also erected a strong building
with high wall around it in which to
conceal enterprising young men who
amused themselves with such inno-
cent pastime A warrant was issued
several days ago of which Philip was
fully aware; but, strange enough, he
did not rush into the arms of Frank
Morris; but he became restless, and
yesterday voluntarily called upon
Esquire Stinson and surrendered his
precious body, and gave bail to call
again at o'clock to-day and see the
matter out. Whether the young man
is guilty or innocent we have not the
remotest idea, but hope he is not"
BEFORE JUSTICE WALKER.-Mehn
and Glazier, of whose cases we made
mention yesterday, met at Justice
Walkers Office yesterday and mutu-
ally agreed not to prosecute very hard.
The Justice, therefore, to recover the
costs of prosecution, fixed their fines
at one cent each with costs These
were the only cases that claimed his
yesterday. The FOUNDERS
and malefactors generally are strange
ly enough on their good behavior just
now, and furnish little beefsteak to
the ministers of justice, and few
items to ''ye locals. " Il
LOVE WILL FIND A WAY.-A gen
tleman of position in Henderson fell
in love with charming young lady of
Greensboro, who returned his passion
with warmth; but, to verify the old
adage that the course of true love
never did run smooth, obdurate pa
rents interposed and forbade the
banns. But there is another trite
saying, that d" Love will find way,
or, as it was more forcibly expressed
to us the other day by beautiful
young lady, Where there is a will
there is way" and these trite say
ings had to be verified, and they were.
Just how the affair was managed we
did not learn, but the result was that
"Two souls with but a single thought, !!
Two hearts that beat as one"
arrived in this city late on Monday
night, having Travelled all night Sun
day and all day Monday, and were
married in the parlor of the
House, amid the congratu-
lations and sympathy of a number of
friends. Obdurate parients" may as
well learn that Love laughs at lock-
smiths" We wish the happy pair a
full fruition of their most sanguine
hopes and expectations.
A GREAT FOUNDRY.-We were not
a little surprised yesterday, while
passing through Heilman's foundry,
to observe the vast amount of build
ing that has been completed there
within the last three months. A
massive brick building three stories
high, with front of over two hun
bred feet, and fifty feet deep, with
one-story addition back some thirty
feet deep, has been put up and almost
since the LIST of November,
thereby nearly doubling the capacity
of the foundry, which was before one
