AI* go^^^^jy^g' koENious THIEF.-There is of 3gree of ingenuity, persever I ?dustry, in fact not unf requen t y - jfundity of genius manifested * ' * honestly obtair .g a living is marvellous. It is at times \ diffionlt to withhold our ad \ >n from tho deeds of some A ^talented rogue, who by his ^"'TS" arid address has achieved a it success iii his profession. Lr keys, nor bolts, nor bars, pa? raba, Herring's safes, guards ieepless vigilance can save a co? if prize, when an accomplished Fha? once determined to have it. Iii a strategy which would make h a Grant, Lee or Napoleon Bona /te, in the martial field, the thief of /ished education will enter upon his -..Xmpaigu with a spirit and vigor which will be sure to win. He will even use honest men and honest ?' means as puppets which will-enable him to attain success. Frequently the owner of the. treasure, which the rogue seeks to possess, will uncon? sciously be made to act as his most valuable auxiliary, and unwittingly becomes a party to his own loss and spoliation. A recent instance of the ingenuity and boldness of thieves has come to our notice. A rogue in Paris had looked with longing eyes at the great diamonds exposed for sale in the win? dows and show-cases of the jeweler's shop, and he determined to have them. He employed a skillful draughtsman to make drawings of these precious ornaments, from which he had imitations made of base metal and material so good that detection was difficult. Then pretending that he wjfhed to purohase the jewels, he 8t the jeweler would send clerk or footman to his 1er that his wife might and make her select ions, "ter suspicion had been this way, though the was present, it was not ap the imitations for' the ad send the counterfeits e message that his 'wife the diamonds. It to ak me time to find out the ;nie the rogue was gone. [Richmond Taimes.

ERS, advise you of tho fact that Charleston is again a market for the pur? chase of goods; and in view of tho early opening of thc Spring Trade, we bog to solicit the rc.Mimp! ion of thc patronage so liberally extended to this market in the past. We aro aware that many old and respected firms will he missed from our number, but many familiar names will be found in new associations, ready to supply the want? of the trade as of y<n*o, and other old and new firms will be added to our number at an carly day. The cash and short credit system having been universally adopted in all thc North? ern markets, we arc necessarily compelled to adopt a like system as the only safe one on which to conduct business, and the heavy per ccntage once necessary to cover bad debts will now be avoided. Small pro? fits and quick returns will be the rule, and under its working ive hope not only to restore to our ancient city its former pros? perity, but to extend her trade to the fidl extent of the capabilities her excellent geographical position and natural advan? tages afford. Our interest and ambition combine to stimulate us in attaining this result. The South Carolina Railroad is now oircn to Columbia, and its President has officially informed us that the Augusta, line will be completed to Blackville this month, and that on the tirstof February.he will receive through freight to Augusta. A linc of steamers to Savannah will afford facilities for shipping in that direction. It is our purpose to have in store, by the last of February, a complete and varied assort? ment ol' goods m our respective lines adapted to the Spring Trade, and every exertion shall be made to. promote your interests. We extend to yon the hand of commer? cial fellowship, and solicit your co-opera? tion and patronage in our efforts to make Charleston the centre of Southern trade. Give us the cnconrajremoiit we ask, and von will enjoy all the advantages of a cheap home market. " Dry Goods. W. T. Burge ft Co. Edwin Bates A ?Co. J. It. Bead A Co. Strauss, Yance ,ft Co.
