very heavy rain Sunday afternoon.
Mr.. Arthur b. Violet, a refined
Young gentleman of New Orleans,
was III Alexandria for day this week,

-Thos. d. Stewart, late of Le-
comte, but at present living in St.
Mary Parish, was in Alexandria on

recent political struggle in that Sec
ton, and says it was hotter in that

"A dollar won't do it-but S.. so
will. What! Buy tho best pair of
Ladies' SHOES ever offered in the
Alexandria market. They are just
from the Baltimore factory of John
Faust L. Son, and are sold in this

John Clayton, COL, was jailed
here last week, charged with assault
ing with stick, at Leeomte, a colored
woman named A3aline McCrae-kick-
ing her and threatening to burn her
house. Mr.. Oscar Cheney, the jailer.
went to attend to tho prisoners the
day following the incarceration, when,
before he knew it he was knocked
down by Clayton, who afterwards ran
down stairs into the Jail yard and
tried to make his escape. Mr.. Che
ney, with rifle in hand, followed Clay
ton, and with the assistance of several
parties, soon had him In JUL again.
Clayton hasn't very good reputation,
and we don't think his dash at liberty
nnder circumstances named above will
do him any good when he comes up
for trial.
DO not be chilled this winter when
y'u can huy suit of CLOTHES so
cheap and so nice at Joseph Lcvin's.
Remember he has just returned from
he East with the finest assortment
ever offered in this section. He per-
;onally inspected tho goods before
ouying them-hence he offers guar
sntee to every purchaser. Go around
md see his stick before purchasing
elsewhere.

) expected that Pitts will be taken to
