ATTEMPTED OUTRAGE. = Last Saturday
having the appearances OF being half starved,
kilocLes at the door of the house Of the Misses
Reynolds. two single ladies living about one
mile South Of town on the Greenvile road, land
it being opened, he pushed into the room and
in very gruff and mpudent manner, said
that he wanted to stay all night. One of the
ladies told him that he couldn't be accommo-
dated and that he should so away. lie then
asked for the man OF the house, and when told
that there were no man about the place, said
that he woald stay anyhow. In the meantime
lie had come into the room, locked tie door
and put the key into his pocket. The other
sister, the one who had not converted with
him, ran to the window, jumped out and
screamed for help. Hearing the cry, the scoun-
lrel drew large butcher knife and struck at
the lady who still remained in the room. She
warded off the blow and receiv ed slight
wound Gil the hand. lie then ran to the Win
doT, muttered an oath and made his escape
The ncighbors came in few moments after
wards but were unable to overtake him.
The Misses Reynolds had seen the negro
pass by in the evening, and they described him
as large, yellow man, with busliy hair, a
mean countenance, and, as before stated, lily
clad. 1t is to be hoped that he may yet be
captured an made to pay the scyerest penalty
OF the law.

The CATHOLIC FAIR.-The fair given by
Grange Hall ON Monday night. The Hall has
been beautifully decorated with pictures,
wreaths, notices, &C., and the fancy tables
present an array of useful and ornamental ar
ticles which cannot fail to please the most d.
verse tastes, and are adaptable to al coHdi-
lions of the pocket book. The dinner and
supper tables are loaded with everything good
to eat, and the walters are attentive and cour-
teous. No one can sit down at one of these
tables and fail to get the worth of his money.
The Catholic ladies are proverhial for their I'M
surpassed culinary skill, and the elegant vi,
ands they are row serving for mere pittance
prove that they have spared 20 pains in the
preparation OF their bill OF fare.
The inclement weather of Monday and Tues
day nights operated considerably against the
success of the affair, but we hope that tonight
and tomorrow night will fully make up for it,
Among the many other attractions is the
"Post Office" where any love-sick swain OIL
damsel will always be sure to receive q letter
or valentine by inquiring. Unlike the unac-
commodating servants OF Uncle Sam, these po-
lite clerks never fgil to find something, and
none are turned away empty handed. DON'T
fail TO visit this department. whilst at the Fair.
Dinner will be served to-day and to- morrow
and hungry humanity can eat, drink and be
merry for the small sum of fifty cents To-
morrow night ends the entertainment, but the
best of all the season will be tonight.
The proceeds are for the benefit OF the
Church.

On SUNDAY LAST, the Rev, G. B. Stricken,
pastor Of Thinking Springs church, preached
two of the finest sermons we have ever listen
ed to, in the 81 Presbyterian church of this
city. In the morning his discourse was found
ed on the miracle Of the ten lepers, and at
night his text was the 1st verse of the 18th
chapter Of Romans. There is that earnestness
and sincerity about Mr.. Strckler's manner
which at once address themselves to the heart OF
his hearers, and that clear mathematical reason
ing in the presentation Of his arguments which
stamps him as logical thinker and close
scholar: His eloquence is unstudied, his LAM
guagc chaste and forcible, and his ideas origi-
nal. He INDUCES in no flights of fancy, but
his every word carries conviction. Better than
all these is the evident piety OF fine nan. DEM
onstratng i'll his dairy walk the beauty OF the
faith he PROCESSES.
