Our Coming CITY.

Nilhlon IL never common place-al
mHys up-So.uate, lively, refreshing, orig.
bsslees, Clinton don't need Z
coIrt house like Greenwood, Woodrnd
rs q city Of herself and away over
above n away from such gfoyellinp
hoions--ahe is az big now as Laurens
OF any other town and means To GREG,
great mllls with babel smoke stacks and
90 ~ all without the cry of-"come over
ard help u.s. Watch our beautjful IN.
tte modest coming city Just ON the bor-
ger o. our eastern suburbs. Fifteen
uays ago o beyy OF her graces-the an
clenC classic three were dowdies-ap-
peareu IN our ofice-oh the dimples,
mo smlleS-that no centenarian-no
mummy could say no TO. They had n
case 60 be heard in their newly organ
lzed Court of Cupid" native, peculiar
original in that town-where the little
Dllnd God" with his everlasting and
never failing arrows arc constantly
uolnS deadly work. Even in Gin
ton, with her high moral tone and
aestheticienI, colleges and culture, is to
De lound the gay decciyer, and now and
men q fascinating sylph not armed like
hchtVes against the insidious shafts of
me Litde God from HYperion's curls.-
Briefly, q disciple of Blackstone was
Ills pNAD AZ Suplu y SOufL
Tor breach OF Conjugal contract-the
lovely complainant complaining to the
Court that the handsome young Tt,
oil Clinton, hGa preached a long ENGAGE
ihent, upon tho piti.ul plea that the lady
MA adopted . hloomer cost lme for her
bike and persisted in so appearing in
pubic. There Wag no salve for shat
tefed heartstrings-uo healing balm but
smart money-so Col. j by the blan-
dlshment OF smiles and dimpIes was
duly enlisted for the charming plaintiff,
u complaint promptly served and the
anti-tleroiG Col. NJ. retained for the
absurd and obdurate Loshario. Friday
evening asst was fixed for the hearing
and in Seminary Hall at $50 p. NJ.
FRIDAY last the Court with all IFS para
phsrnatia OF CLARK, Sheriff, bailiifs and
Jury was duly organized, with the hand
some and diEuiied Err O-s, of Clinton,
IN sili:en robes holding the scales OF
%JrsticS. There was 10 trouble about
procuring a Juy-only one being Oh
lected to and that for cause, having
been involved III a like d%isqueliiying
case with tho Defendant. Dr., W-d was
appointed Foreman. The Plaintiff an
lnnocent young female as the sequel
Will show suffered irreQarably for want
OF experience right here, and from the
fact il wa9 rulod that all the Jurors
should come from the sternor sex. The
FIaintiif sat by the side Of her young
and handsome counsel, while the stony
hearted Defendant hang 10 the coat-sails
Of venerable" Col. NJ. The defendants
tender letters pending tho counting sea-
son and engagement, were largely en-
joycd while the Overlooking house, full
to the brim ofthG elite OF the city re-
Iished The sparring OF the waspish attor-
neys, and the bright saliies OF the ex-
perienccd Witnessed. The two colored
COachmen OF Clinton, II. i. and b. G..
appearing for either side, threw
the galleries completely off their
feet. Caroline Gunner, for the Plaintiff
stood the ordeal OF a long and searching
examination with admirable impertur.
liability while the cheek CfSnodgrass for
the Defendant was worthy OF the un-
righteous cause he was brought there to
uphold. After a clear, lucid and i'm
partial charge from the learned Judge
the Immortal twelve retired to their
room and after Il pretended elaboration
brought in tho following verdict:
we find for the Plaintiff fifty cents
and q pair OF Boomers" The Jury had
clearly been tempered with - "bam-
bOCzlpd and debauchGd,' $50 to speak"
and y new trial will certainly be the re-
sGit when tie facts are Enown and they
will be assuredly uueGrthcd. The gal
liant latcheiOr editor OF the Gazette
though called in S,cntorian tones for the
Plaintiff rafus0ltO answer, uG-GoUbt nm
willing TO lend himself to so unchivairic
Il cause for wo would by no means hint
that he WIS AhigSi.Ea cross examination

"ill be boys. Tho gate receipts were
good from u small. charge and tho select
audience passed q pleasant evening.
