THE residence of the Misses Boar
man, on the corner of the Public
Square, was entered by a thief Tues
day morning, about 4 O'Clock. The
thief entered the premises through
the garden and gained access to the
house through the kitchen window.
Failing to get into the main build
ling in this way he apparently retrac-
led his steps and climbed up a grape
Iarbor on to a poarch. He had rails
led a window and was in the act of
!entering, when the noise awoke one
.of the young ladies, who gave tic
alarm, and the scamp jumped to the
pavement, and ran off at a rapid
|rete.
It was very bold proceeding.
A colored man, named Stephens,
was arrested on Thursday, charged
with the. offence. After an exami-
nation before Justice Mathews, he
was held to court.

OK Tuesday evening, Willie, little
son of Mr.. Fred. Ryneal, of this
place, was in field near town, gath.
ering sugar nuts, when he heard the
report of gun or pistol, and imme-
diately felt sharp pain, the effects
of ball, which struck him in the
side. He ran home, and DIR. Myers
was called in and made an examina-
tion. The ball had not been located
but is supposed to have struck rib
and passed down into the hip The
wound is not considered dangerous,
although painful. 1t is not known
whether the shot was stray one or
the act of some malicious person.

NOTWITHSTANDING the drouth
which preceded the holding of the
Fair, and which operated greatly
against the exhibition, and the un-
favorable weather during the second
land third days, the proceeds were
much larger than anticipated. But
flor the unfavorable circumstances
mentioned, the exhibition would
have been grand success. and was
mot by any means discouraging in its
results.

With cheeks that are pallid,
And a cold, hushed heart;
A smile is still resting
Upon her sweet face,
The angels have touched it,
With holier grace.
With US through LIES mazes
No longer to roam,
Our loved one has left us.
But only gone home
And now she is singing
With the angelic throng.
With voice like the prelude
To some pleasant song;
Her robe must be spotless
With her to accord,
For blest are the sleepers,
Who die in the Lord !

SATURDAY, SEPT. "a. 1881.

THE news of the Presidents death
was received in this city at about
quarter to Il O'Clock Monday night.
Immediately the fire bell proclaimed
the sad news in mournful cadence,
and soon after, the railroad bell,
courthouse and Lutheran church
bells joined in the sad refrain, and
re-eehoed the mournful story far out
on the stiffness of the night. People
were aroused, and all seemed to con-
lecture at once the cause of the toll
ing bells. There was no excitement,
but a deep feeling of sadness and
gloom prevailed.
Tuesday morning the public and
many private buildings were draped
in mourning for the dead President,
and his death was the one absorbing
topic of conversation.
