NEDY, the late Jailor, has been released from
Castle Pinckney, where he had been confined py

charges made by the parties concerned IN the ]aii
robbery. He is now an inmate Of the jail, but we

MOSES for a writ of habeas corpus.
Be YE CIorHEp.-This is the advice OF our
friends, GEO. LITTLE & Co., whose establishment,
at No. 213 King street offers inducements that few
can resist. Not content with placing the price OF
their goods within the reach OF ALL they have low
cred the tariff to such an extent that it is equlVa
lent to giving them away. Their stock is perfect,
and contains every article necessary to the welfare
of man, and by LITTLE manipulating, they WILL
really become what they claim, the lords OF crea-
ton. Messrs. GEO. LITTLE & Co. are old and popu-
lar clothiers, and when they offer bargains, there
need be no fear that the goods will not be what
they are recommended.
Dunn VIyMUs BIBAMUs.-If We we're not firm
believer in familiar spirits, We should have be-
come an instant convert yesterday; for our sane
tum was invaded, our desk appropriated, and an
| odor of-sky spread around that Immediately
caused US to think of ethereal subjects. These
vsitants from the spirit land were Of the highest
rank, and were clad in gorgeous array. Ihey were
soon released from durance vile; and though we
saw them first through glass darkly, it was soon
face to face. On questioning the tebon Ganymede
we were informed that our neighbors Messrs.
MCKAY & CAMPBELL, No. 1876 Meeting street, were
engaged in performing the obsequies in case
affected by Order No. 80, and would to-day dispose
at auction or private sale the finest lot Of spirits
ever produced in this market. The proof OF the
pudding is in the eating and We are fully prepared
to substantiate Ganymedes statement, Tor we have
seldom tasted better selection OF every blbulant
that could tempt the thirsty or cheer the weary.
Messrs. MCKAY g. CAMPBELL will to-day offer to the
public bargains that should not be neglected. We
have endeayored to do justice to the samples be-
fore us, and would advise On early visit to this
abode of spirits.
