Whose words with sweetness laden,

And of actions without grace;
Actions quite unornameutaI
To the nose upon her face;
With dgits from her nasaItip
Extended, and gyrating,
with words defiant on her lip
And neighbors me ear grazing
She advised her immigration
To q torrid spirit prison,
And continued the gyrstion
TIll her neighbours ire was risen,
and the gentle neighbor poured her grief
into the sympathizing ear Of the court,
whose "buzzum" sympathized with hers
TO the extent of dining her tormenter s. 10,

PERSONAL---VERY. the adjournment
Of the Circuit Court on Monday. the
connection Of Captain Henry w.
Lauer, with the Sheriff's Office ceased.
Although politically opposed to the
JOURNAL, Captain Lauer has, in his
intercourse with its representatives,
and all others, always shown himself
one of those who can, while opposing
one'sI politics, make the opposition
purely a political one, and being a
gentleman himself, never forge1s the
respect and courtesy due others.
While the gentleman who succeeds
him, Mr.. Otto Pfafiin, is one who 6lls
the bill exactly, yes long continued
pleasant intercourse with Captain
Lauer, makes us regret his absence.

Amusements.

TIE CARNIVAL OF NoVELrrEs.-Iher
was a good audience at the exhibition at
the Opera House last night, who were in
tensely amused at the many novelties
produced. The taking head was great
source OF wonder TO the beholders. Prof.
Du Caux exhibits what appears to be
human head In a small trunk, which he
opens, and placing himself at distance,
asks questions of the head, which are an
swered in q distinct voice which appears
to issue from the moving mouth OF the
head. The head turns TO the right or left
as hidden. and bows its adieux TO the au-
dience.
The talking hand il, however, one ofsthe
greatest droIleries extant, the hand being
blackened and held In such a position as
to resemble an exaggerated ethiopian
mouth moves, and apparently talks IN an
swer to the Professor, whom It also
prompts In the duet sung by them.
The Royal Martonette Troupe are really
very amusing lot of people" perform
ing all manner of antics, including most
ridiculous Shoe Fly song and dance. q fight
between a Hibernian and a down Easter
and skeleton dance, in which the dancer
goes TO wreck, and the pieces each perform
a double shufde on its own account.
The drawing of prizes IS not the least
amusing part of the show. Marshal w un-
derIich distinguished himself by drawing
a can OF Holsters; Chief of Police Mauntel
drew a broom; a lawyer drew a long
breath; blushing bschelor drew a pair
of ladies' hose; a learned Judge drew q
pair OF baby's stockings; a man without q
family drew a kit of family mackerel; a
handsome young lady drew a conclusion;
a physician drew q meal sieve; a man
wrapped up in shawl drew q rocking
chair; a tall, distinguished looking man
drew a box OF backing, and q printers
d evil picture OF his girl on the gallery
wall. Mrs. Esther Newman, who at first
drew q dessert spoon, was the holder of
the ticket which, on the second drawing,
took the chamber set. One hundred more
presents tonight.
THE RINK.-A fair company was present
last night. but all seem to be holding back
for the grand Carnival Of Thursday night,
at which the Henderson, and greensboro
Associations are to be represented. The
managers announos that no com pliment-
airy tickets viii be good that night, except
those issued to the press.
BUKoWTTz CoNCERT.-As VIII be seen by
the posters about the city, Prof. Buko-
wi rs Concert will be given on Tuesday
next, at the Opera House. The pro-
gramme, already out. shows that il viii
be well worthy of liberal patronage. A
little fairy, who assisted at the last con.
cert, has the thanks of the writer for kind
remembrance.
