HARRIsoNBURG ENTERPRIsE.-Th Harrison
burg Enterprise heretofore published as semi
weekly, will, in future, be published as week
ly. The publishers assign as the chief reason
for this change that it does not pay to publish
oftener than once a week This is reason suffi-
Gent.
We hope the enterprising and worthy publish
ers of that sprightly little journal will be able
to make the weekly pay. IF subscribers and
advertisers wish to have a good paper, they
should pay what they are owing to it. Without
money a good paper cannot be published, and
unless subscribers and advertisers pay, the pub
fishers cannot have money.

CARSON GRANTED NEW IRIAL.-As we
stated last week. the judge, at the request of the
counsel for the defence-Col. Baldwin being abb
sent-agreed to suspend judgment until Satur-
day. at which time he would hear an argument
for new trial, and by which time.it was.expect-
ed Col. Baldwin would return. At the meeting
of the Court on Saturday, as Col. Baldwin was
still absent. and the wife of one of the counsel
for the defense, quite sick, the judge agreed to
postpone hearing the argument till Monday
yesterday.
At 10 o'clock yesterday morning the Court
met, tn prisoner was brought in, and quite q
large crowd filed the Courtroom. The argu-
ment for new trial then proceeded and short
speeches were made by Messrs. Cochran, Elder,
Bumgardner s. Baldwin. The motion for new
trial was then submitted to the judge, who, after
an elaborate review of the facts as they appear
ed TO him to have been proven in the trial, de-
cided to grant the prisoner a new trial, express
sing the opinion that the prisoner was only gull
ty of manslaughter, and therefore he set aside
the verdict of the jury finding him guilty of
murder in the second degree.

SoIREE.-On Thursday night last, a Soiree
was given at the Baptist Female Institute" of
this place, of which Prof. John Hart is the &C.
complished and efficient Principal. The weather
was quite inclement, and prevented some from
being present who desired to enjoy the good
music dispensed on that occasion. Those who
did not allow the weather to prevent them from
being present. were amply compensated for their
exposure to the rain. The young ladies acquit-
ted themselves in such manner as to reflect great
credit on themselves and their teachers. Both
the vocal and instrumental music were very fine.
