A scuffle ensued, but the fellow m|fV bis escape across the passago into the dttfhig room and out through the window. On examination it was discovered that tho rascal had deliberately taken tho Dr's. pocket book from his pantaloons pocket, carried it to the firelight in the dining room, extracted a dollar from i(?all the money it contained?and left the boolc on the mantle-piece, iie also took a bunch of keys from Mrs. Boyd's pocket, buttons disturbed before he had time to use them, lie Mi "SolerMii Pinion ?ime$ kT m.

We call attention to the advertisement of sale in the case of Johu It. ./efTeriea, administrator,, vs. Ellen Jcfferies. In its first publication it. stated that the sale would take place 'in 1*. comber next instead of January. The error occurred in the printing office, and is corrected in this issue. The Christmas Trees. We regret that wo cannot make room for a full account of the delightful evenings spent by the children, parents, teachers and others of the Sunday Schools of the Episcopal, Presbyterian Methodist and Baptist churches of this town luring Christmas week. It will not loose any of its interest by being postponed one week. ? ? Got. Hampton's Condition. The news from Gov. Hampton the past two weoks has been most cheering. The old hero and beloved statesman has beeu steadily imnrov ing. His physicians say lie has passed tho dangerous crisis and, unless some unfavorable circumstance occurs, he will be in his scat as our representative in tbe U. 8. Senate, on the 4th of March, or soon after. Who Wants Great Bargains. There will be an Auction of a general Stock of Merchandize, commencing tomorrow, Saturday morning and continued on Moudny, nt II.

A Shooting Scrape near 8antno. A dilliculty occurred 011c day last week, upon Mr. J. T. Hill's plantation, between Mr. J. Mobley llill and Mr. 1*. Thomas, in which the latter was shot, the ball passing through the body just above the stomach. Conflicting statements come to us as to the cause and circumstances of the difficulty, therefore it would be imprudent in us to give any details. For some days it was feared i Mr. Thomas could not live, but we nre pleased to state that the last account gives us great hop* that he will recover. ? Kiss Beid's 8ohool. Wo call attention to the advertisement of that most excellent Lady and eminent Teacher, Miss C. M. Reid. Her acknowledged fitness for the important position of teacher of young Ladies, her long and successful experience In some of the best Institutions at the 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 them for any sphere of life in which they may more hereafter. Colored Mechanics Dinner. We were kindly favored with f n invitation to attend a dinner given by the members of the "Colored Mechanical Association" of this town last 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 property, and by their upright conduct have aeeured the respect and eoufidanoa of the whole community. Our Mala School. * It is gratifying to learn that all differences have been pleasantly adjusted and the Trustees of our Village schools have elected that able and veteran Teacher, Maj. D. A. Townsend Principal of the Male School. The Major informs us that the school will open some time about the close of the present month and that a^full corps of Oompotent Teachers will bo employed. i No town in this er any other State bns superior School advantages to the town of Union.? Short of first clnss colleges, our boys and girls can be educated as thoroughly here as at any place in the country. The location is remarkably healthy and the climate la genial, braoing and proverbially pleasant. Send us your boys and girls, and we'll return them to you prepared to adorn any position or sphere In society, had entered through tho dining room window, which opens on the bnck piazza. The Dr's cane of Dental instruments with some loose tools were found under the window on the pia?sa.-~ The Dr. attempted to shoot the fellow but his pistol missed fire. The light from the grate in the dining room was sufficient to show that the thief was a negro, but the Dr. is not able to wear to him. attkmpt to ron til k express safe. An unsiicceseful attempt was made, about 8 o'cldft^^pVedn^bdavr morning, lo brcal^opch the iron safe of the Express Company, in the Railroad depot. The burglars obtained entrance to tho office by forcing open the outside door. They then drnggcl the safe to the door and with chisels and a hammer stolen from Allen & Robinson's Blacksmith shop, andachisel from Nicholson's Marble yard?which they had tampered and prepared for cutting iron?cut off the hinges of the safe and the handle of the combination lock. It is supposed that daylight rove thenid off before completing their work, consequently they got nothing for their trouble. at McNeacks ao aim. Ou the same night they made a second effort to force the door of Mr. McNcace's bar room, breaking off tho guard of the lock, but a heavy bar across the door prevented their entrance. at r. r. unions'. On Cbistmus morning, about 2 o'clock, Mr. ami Mrs. 11. V. Brigga were aroused fiom sleep by a noise in their bed room, and on got ting up Mr. 11. saw a man escape out of the window. The fellow had drawn out the bureau drawers and ransacked them, strewing their contents upon the floor. The fellow got nothing for his trouble. The following should have appeared in our issue of the 20th of December, but was una voidably crowded out. Last week Col. I.G. McKissick's smoke house was broken into und n quantity of Flour and other provisions stolen. On Thursday night the sleeping room'of Mr. Jas. Cochran, at the Palmer Stables, was entered, while Mr. C. and a Mr. Taylor from Ken' tucky were asleep, and a small sum of money | taken from Mr. Cochrnn's trunk and his papers strewed over the floor. The trunk was standing aUuift fhi^* feet from Mr. Cochran's head, and Mr. C. firmly believes that both himself and Mr. Taylor were chloroformed, us about three o'clock ho awoke much stupified. Fortunately lie had deposited his money?quite a large sum ?in the bank that day. Mr. Taylor had about $400 in his pantaloons pocket, which was placed under the pillow, but the thieves did not find it. Won't they be mail when they hear that ? On Snturday night or early Sunday morning the sleeping room of Mr. Hates, Mr. McNeace's barkeeper, was entered, while Mr. llates and Mr. I. L. Clark were asleep, and about ?8 were stolen from Mr. Clark's pocket. Mr. Hates' trunk was taken out and $2 and a pair of pantaloons taken from it. The trunk was afterwards found under tho cotton platform at the railroad depot. It is supposed that the thief hadsecreted himself in the building when the dooTs were iflosed for the night. The Commencement of Vol. X. This number commences the tenth volume of the Timks, under its present management,and we find it impossible to crowd in an extended article prepared for the occasion, but feel conscious that our renders would prefer to read as much current news as it is possible to get in. Although we cannot say our ten years of work has been profitable, pecuniarily, we can say, with feelings of pride and pleasure, that they have been the pleasantest years of our ediloral life, and while He are aware that we have not accomplished that great journalistic feat of pleasing everybody, we have the satisfaction of knowing that better men thaa we 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 mnke, except the want of ability to do more and better for the County. What we have done has been*acl. uated by an honest desire to do the best for the County of Union, not even usking whether it woe popular or not. Our post is before the people and we have no incentive from the people to promise any change or improvement in the future. Hhould that incentive be given ue, however, the people may rest assured that they will realise the benefit in a larger and, in every respeet, much better psper. Honestly wifebing for the whole people of the Couftty of Union in part.culnr and the State of 8outh Carolina in general, a peaceful, happy and prosperous New Year, we settle down to another twelve months of labor. The 8toek.Law. We publish in another column the Stock law s it passed at the last session of the Legislatui e. We hear that a number of persons ore saying "bad words" about the law. Hold on, gentle mon. rvveji juiir i?mp?T. i ry ii neiore you condemn it. In Cheater Ooun'.y it was m roundly oondemned when it was first adopted, but those who oondemned it then are its warmest friends aofr/ahd say it is the bast law ever passed for that County. If we were a betting man we'd wager a glass of Behoppaul's Lager that in two years from now one hundred votes could not be obtained in opposition to it. An acre of clover well put in on properly prepared clay soil will give you green and dry food, with a few nliucke, for four cows, for three years.? Then turn the clover patch under and that acre will be the best spot on your farm. Don't condemn a thing before you know what it is. jure - tjw .
