A DARING OUTRAGE.-0n Friday
night last the dwelling of Mr. Watson,
an aged and respectable man residing
above DarncSiown, in This district, was
attacked by gang Of some fifteen or
twenty negro men, WIN were returning
from a constructing in the n,igbbor
hood The only persons in the house
at the time were Mr. Watson aud his
two daughters. The negroes broke
open the doors and windows of the
house, when Mr. Watson gathered up
his two shot guns. which caused the
negroes to fall back few PAGES and
discharge volley of revolycrs at the
old gentlemen. This was rather too hot
for Mr.. Watson to stand, and he bazed
away with his two guns, woundng three
of the desperados, aud putting the re.
maindcr to inglorious flight Mr..
Watson came to town one day this week
with the names of four or five of the
miscrcants, aud procured warrants for
their arrest.-R0rkrWc Sentinel.

DID October Weather Proverbs.

An exchange weaves an autumn
wreath out Of the old proverbs in regard
to autumn. First we have this cnromo,
logical prccept:
| ado not let October flies
Lead you to expect warm skies
But it, notwithstanding, the skies are
warm, look for the chilling rocompeuse
herein indicated
October warm, with certain speed
Makes February cold indeed"
The leaves, too, bear their part 10
their portents faded and lhickly ntrew
ed on every hand they cannot fail b be
noted in the search for signs. The
prognostc below, though rudely expires.
scd, IS based upon good physiological
principles
"The earlier in October the leaves do fall, so
much the more fruitful will the next season
be-"
The next two are of similar import !:
" Stop the leaves long on the trees, you had
best prepare for winter good, warm nest"
When late in October the leaves still
remain fast to the trees there will follow
u hard winter.
OF rain in this mouth we have this
tritc saw:
"Much rain in October, much wind in De-
cembeT."
Aud this, which to a superstitious
mind might be cause Of dread, Gods
acre being the beautiful German dosig
nation for a graveyard
October rains, when many and great,
Gods acre best ill and cultivate"
Thunder in this month is decidedly
out Of season, but should its revcrbara
tions be heard they are not to be re.
glrded as consoling sounds, as witnes 5
what follows:
October thunder storms plainly say
Changeable weather all winter will stay"
And this, which is more obscure, is
still less satisfactory
"Wintcr thundcr-misplacod and unkind-
Showeth much solid weather behind"
Or this triplot, which institutes Il
comparison, must be taken in an allegor,
icIl sense
" la October the thunder, though sounding
drcar
Than that of February, is better to hear;
The last is but pleasing to the uSureP ear"
As for frost and snow, whose advent
is not desirable SO early in the season,
but which occasionally nut in an unwel.
come appearance, we have these
Frost aud snow in October are couricrs to
say that January will be mild"
Now let tho weatherwise event and
hereby forwarned predict the usual
January thaw !
" If there is in October much frost and wind,
January and February both mild you'll hnd,
But when In autumn the weather is clear,
The cold wind full soon will appear"
