FALSE PRETENsES the Goth day
Of December last a young man named
William E. Collins, workman in the
Crescent iron mill, vent to the store OF
D. Lynn e. Co., to purchase a stove
valued at 500, on credit. Being I'M
known to Mr.. Lynn he was told that
il he would get some OF his fellow
workmen to 60 his security he could
get the desired stove. He went away
and shortly after returned with an
order, of which the following is yer
batim copy, and got the stove:
pleas Let the Bearer have the stove,
and Will stand good for the payment
on the six Of January Richard Black
sheraer at top and Bottom Crescent
mill and oblige
On the 9th Of January Mr.. Lynn
went to collect his bill, when he learned
that Richard Black, or rather Black
stone, had neither written the order
nor authorized it to be written. He at
once had a warrant issued tor Collins
arrest on a charge Of obtaining goods
under false pretenses. The case cam
up for a hearing yesterday afternoon.
The testimony was partially heard, but
because of the absence Of material
witness, the case was continued Until ~
o'clock this morning, Collins giving bail
in the sum Of 500 for his appearance
at that time.

THE HANDSOME THlNG,-The gentle
men connected with the Old Dominion
Dancing Club gave a calico party at
their hall in .McLain's building last
night, which was well attended and
where mirth and happiness reigned.
About midnight some of the members
of the club brought to the printers con-
nected with the REGISTER Office basket
full as it could be packed with eatables
and drinkables. A meeting Of the
compositors was at once called and the
following resolutions unanimously
adopted:
Rssolved, That W. II. Schambra,
President, and the members Of the Old
Dominion Dancing Club are gentlemen
entitled to our highest regard, for their
kindness and attention. May pleasure
attend on their assemblies, and beauty
greet them with smiles Of love.
Resolved, That we now struggle with
this hash.
And they did most vigorously.

A FIzzLE.-Last night the aIlegory
OF Right and Wrong was to have been
played at Washington Hall, for the
benefit OF the authoress Of the play.
The hall was not very well filled, for
the fact that there was 10 be perform
ance there was known to but few per-
sons. 1t had not been advertised. At
the hour of commencement a person
came before the curtain and announced
that there would be no Right and
Wrong presented. Just as the people
present got ready to leave some other
person came out and said the play would
20 on. Then the curtain went up and
some other person came out and said
something and the curtain went down.
the audience lett and the lights went
out. We regret this fizzle, for Mrs.
Clifton is a deserving and talented lady,
and deserved that the house should
have been filled. But you must adver'
tise il you would run play or any
thing else successfully.

NARY WATER.-We were unwillingly
made the medium Of misleading the
citizens Of the Eighth ward, yesterday.
We were assured by responsible and
respectable member Of the City Council,
one of whom we have hitherto held
in high esteem-for he rarely makes
speeches-that the water would be let
on yesterday. The people of the Eighth
ward believed this story, we grieve TO
say. And they had right to, for we
rarely deceive them. But they were
swindled this pop. About the witching
hour of noon, yesterday, and at various
times thereafter, the citizens Of that
ward could have been seen each
with a bucket, held close to the
nozzle OF their bran new hydrants
in one hand, the other hand de-
terminedly pumping the handle OF the
hydrant up and down in the vain at,
tempt to get water out of the thing.
They might as well have tried to ex
tract blood from turnip. 1t wouldn't
be did. One old lady couldn't believe
that there was anything wrong in the
REGISTERS statement; she laid it all to
the cold weather, aud concluded that
the hydrant was frozen In this belief
she peeled all the green paint off OF
it, pouring it full Of hot water to tbaw
it out. The prospect lnow is that
no connection will be made, and nc
water let out until Tuesday next.

PROGRESS OF THE REvoLUrIoN.-A
new light dawned upon the world with
the introduction Of Plantation Bitters
twelve years ago. Drastic purgation
went out-restoration and renovation
came in. The eyes OF the people were
opened to the great fact that the way to
cure disease is to strengthen and sup
port its victims, not to place them at its
mercy, by depriving them Of the little
strength they have. it soon became
evident that as a means Of infusing
vitality into the feeble system, regulat-
ing the secretions, curing indigestion,
and reforming bilious habit of body,
no medicinal preparation then known
was at all comparable to the new resto-
rative. Since then hundreds OF attempts
have heen made to rival the Bitters.
They have all failed, and the grand
revolution in medical treatment, which
was commenced in 1860, is still in pro,
gress. Nothing can stop it, for it is
founded on the principle, now univers-
ally acknowledged, that physical ytgor
is the most formidable antagonist OF all
human ailments, and experience has
shown that Plantation Bitters is peer
less invigorant, as well as the best pos
sible safeguard against epidemic
diseases.

PLRAsAxr.-One Of the most pleasant

PLRAsANr.-One OF the most pleasant
things in a reporters existence is the
information of q sensational item. 1t
adds zest to his life, wings to his feet
and happiness to his soul. He goes for
it with the same avidity buzzard goes
for a dead horse or a chicken hawk for
June bug. He inquiries for all the
particulars and swallows them with a
relish, his mind all the while arranging
the head lines with which it is to be
ornamented, and he enjoys, in advance,
the many Explanations of thunder,
Jane" or, "Ob, dear me, George" which
he knows will garnish the morrow's
breakfast, when the paper is read and
the eye of the reader is caught by the
sensational headings. Your reporter
goes to bed 10 the knowledge that he
will startle the town when it wakes up,
and he sleeps the sleep of virtue and Of
peace. When he comes down to re-
sumo his labor in the morning he hears
his item discussed, and many improba-
BILE probilities given as to :" how the
thing occurred" and he pats himself
fondly on the breast saying, this is my
work, mine the magic wand that has 80
stirred this people" Could any
man desire greater happiness
than your local reporter on
such an occasion? But then suppose
after carefully collatipg the facts in re-
gard to an occurrence and writing them
up in his usually vigorous style, giving
them into the hands of the printer and
going to bed happy, as described above
he wakes in the morning to find that
that item-that one of all others-that
one on which he had built his hopes
that one with which he hoped to Gre
ate a sensation-was the only one not
in the paper. How do you think he
would feel then? Mad? We should
say so! Well, that was our case yes
terday. We wrote an elaborate &C
count OF the safe blowing at j. A. Hol-
liday & Sons planning mill on Wednes-
day morning, said it was done by pro-
fessionals and gave the evidence in
support of our theory, and gave the copy
to the printer, who failed to give tito the
public. Is it to be wondered at that
under such circumstances we felt in
cliued to swear or to shire it done for
us? Well, that's the way we felt any
how.
