We cull attention to the advertisement of sale in the case of John 11. ./cileries, administrator, vs. Kllen JetTerics. In its first publication it slated that Iho sale would take place'in I*, comber next instead of January. The error occurred in the printing ollice, and is corrected in this issue.

Wallace's Trial Justice ntul Law Oftico is in the aame buibling. * Admitted to Practice. Mr. J. I.\ Wallace, niter u searching cx.uuination before the Supreme Court, has been ndmitte I to practice law in the Circuit Courts of this State. In our Inst we mnilc n mistake In staTing that Mr. C. C. Culp was ad milted to practice in lie Cnitcd States Court. We should have said die Supreme Court of this State. .Messrs Culp and Wallace arc young gentlemen of superior intellectual acquirements, much energy and high moral character, and we feel confident they will win line reputations in the honorable profession they have chosen. j A Shooting Scrape near Santuc. A dilliculty occurred one day last week, upon Mr. J. T. Hill's platration, between Mr. .Mobley 11 ill and Mr. 1'. Thomas, in which the latter was shot, the ball passing through the body just above the stomach. Conflicting statements conic to us as to the cause and circumstances of the dilliculty, therefore it would be imprudent in us to give any details. For some days it was feared Mr. Thomas could not live, but wc are pleased to slate that the last account gives us great hops that he will recover. - ? Miss Reid's School. We call attention to the advertisement of that most excellent Lady and eminent Teacher, Miss C. M. Kcid. ller acknowledged fitness for the important position of teacher of young Ladies, her long and successful experience in some of the best Institutions at tlie South and her pure christian character, certainly entitle her school to the most favorable consideration of all in this county who desire to give their daughters or wards an education that will thoroughly fit thent for any sphere of life in which they may move hereafter. . . - - ? Colored Mechanics Dinner. We were kindly favored with i n invitation to attend a dinner given by the members of the ' Colored Mechanical Association" of litis town la: t Monday. A business engagement preven ted our attending, but we learn from friends who were there that it was a very pleasant and agreeable occasion. In this Association are ! many of our most worthy and industrious colored men, who by industry and frugality are gathering around them comfortable home piop' erty, and by their upright conduct have secured the respect and confidence of the whole commit nity. ? Our Male 8chool. It is gratifying to learn that all differences have been pleasantly adjusted and the Tiustccs J of our Village schools have elected that able and | veteran Teacher, Maj. !>. A. Townscnd 1'rincij pal of the Male School. The Major informs us that the achool will open some time about the close of the present j mo.it li ami that :i*fiall Corp* of competent Teach, urn will lie employed.

I III i nil'H II 1 3*ok*<Jut for Thiovcs. #Tliere arc, no doubt, a gang of thieves prowl- : At ing about our town, ami it behooves our good l citizens to keep a sharp eye on their smoke j houses and door urn! window fastenings. AT 1>K. UOYIl's UKSIIIKM'K, On Friday night, UTtli ult./Dr. M. 1'. Jloyd was re aroused froin his sleep by a noise in I he room, J" and on pelting up came in contact with a man pear the dq^. A scutHc ensued, but the fellow (; his escape across the passage into tlio hi diuing room nud out through tho window. On J" examination it was discovered that the rascal m had deliberately taken the l>r's. pocket book ii from his pantaloons pocket, carried it to the tirelight in the dining room, extracted a dollar u| from it?all the money it contained?and left 0| the book on the mantle-piece. He also took a si bunch of keys from .Mrs. lloyd's pocket, but was a' disturbed before lie bud time to use them. lie *| had entered through the dining room window, 0| which opens on the back piazza. The Dr's case of Dental instruments with some loose tools " were found under the window on the piazsa.?- f1 Tue Dr. nttcuipto<( to shoot the fellow but Ins c< pistol missed tire. 'J'he light from the grate in p, the dining room was suthcient to show that the o thief was a negro, but tlie Dr. is not able to " wear to liitn. s ATTRMPT TO ROB TUB EXPRESS SAVE. u An unsuccessful attempt was made, about 3 p o'cl?lfl^(^B?cdnSbday|F morning, to brcaW^opcn c the iron safe of the Kxpress Coinpuny, in the ^ Railroad depot. The burglars obtained en- v trance to the office by forcing open the outside a door. They then dragge I the safe to the door c and with chisels and a hammer stolen from , Alien & Robinson's blacksmith shop, andachisel c from Nicholson's Marble yard ? which they had c tempered and prepared for cutting iron?cut off 8 the hinges of the safe and the handle of the * combination lock. It is supposed that daylight rove theiud off before completing their work, ' consequently they got nothing for their trouble, j AT McXkACE'.S All AIX. On the same night they made a second effort t to force the door of Mr. MeNcace's bar room, t breaking off the guard of the loek, hut a heavy 1 bar across the door prevented their entrance. ' at it. f. unions'. i t?n t'histmas morning, about 2 o'clock, Mr. < and Mrs. 11. V. ltriggs were arousod fiom sleep ' by a noise in their bed rouin, and on getting up Mr. 15. saw a man escape out of the window. t The fcilow had drawn out the bureau drawers and ransacked them, strewing their contents 5 upon the floor. The fellow got nothing for his trouble. I The following should have appeared in our a issue of the -Ulh of December, but was una- 1 voidnbly crowded out. Last week Col. I. 0. Mclvissick's smoke house | t was broken into mid a quantity of Flour and j f other provisions stolen. () Thursday night the sleeping rootn'of Mr. j ( Jas. Cochran, at the Calmer Stables, was en- | tered, while Mr. C. and a Mr. Taylor from Ken- J lucky were asleep, and a small sum ot money j taken from Mr. Cochran's trunk and his papers j strewed over the floor. The trunk was stand- I , ins about ThtTW' feet from Mr. Cochran's head, ! i and Mr. C. firmly believes that both himself ami ; Mr. Taylor were chloroformed, as about three j o'clock he awoke much stupilicd. Fortunately | he had deposited his money?-quite a large sum < ?in the bank that day. Mr. Taylor had about ' lilt) in his pantaloons pocket, which was placed ' tin ier the pillow, but the thieves did not tin I it. Won't I hey be mad when they hear that ? ? On Saturday night or early Sunday morning i ' the sleeping room of Mr. Dates, Mr. McXoaee's j ( barkeeper, was entered, while Mr. Dates and j | Mr. 1. L. Clark were asleep, and about :?S were ' i stolen from Mr. Clark's pocket. Mr. Dates' ! 1 trunk was taken out and ami a pair of pan- ! ( taloons taken from it. The trunk was after- i , wards found under the cotton platform at the > railroad depot. It is supposed that the thief]' had secreted himself in the building when the ! doors were closed for the night. The Commencement of Vol. X. i This number commences the tenth volume of ' the Timks, under its present management,and wc ' , fin 1 it imp issible to crowd in an extended article t prepared for the occasion, but feel conscious ' that our readers would prefer to read as much , current news as it is possible to get in. Although j we cannot sny our ten years of work has been j | profitable, pecuniarily, wc can sny, with feelings I j of pride and pleasure, that they have been ilie ' pic nsan test years of our edit oral life, ami while ( we are aware I lint we have not accomplished i that great journalistic feat of pleasing everybody, we have the satisfaction of knowing that better men than wc have as signally failed in that attempt ; and in looking back upon our course we can find nothing in it we would change, and have no apologies to make, except 1 I tho want of ability to do more and better for i I tho County. What we have done has been act- i ' uatcd by an honest desire to do the best for the j County of I niun, not even asking whether it ' ' was popular or not. Our past is before the people and we have no incentive frotn the prnplf to ' j promise any change or improvement in the fa- j ' lure. Should thai incentive be given us, how- ' ' ! crer, the people may rest assured that they will ! realize the benefit in a larger and, in every re< spret, much heller paper.

The Stook Law. We publish in another eoliimn the Slock law at it passed at the last session of the l.egislntui e. We hear that a number of persons are saving ' ' had words" about the law. Hold on, gentlemen Keep your temper. Try it before you condemn it.
