are in arrears fo the city in . tbe matter f

generally means what be says.
The Leap Year Party
Which the yottng ladies f the crtjr will
give this eyening at tbe residence of Mrs 8
V Yonng, is expected to be the'oocasion of a
great deal of pleasure ,hf preparations
have been extensive, and aU;the details are
arranged. ' Expectancy is on tip toe, and the
nerves of many of the gallants are, even
now, far frflm steady, In Jfeictj the young
man who wears foUTend-ahalf shoe, and
says it is too large for him,etOppedU9oh the
street, yesterday aftemoin, to ask if he
looked much fiostrated; and the young man
who always has a flower on bis coat and
speaks of wearing spectacles ia tbe future,
is sure that he will 'jaf die.'
Fell ia the Street.
Two mules bitched to a covered wagon,
tried to get up, yesterday rabrning, and
couldnt. They were- going . along down
Tryon Street, near the cornerof Trade, look,
i,lg around at the signs, and the show win
dows, and one thing and another, just as
two country- mules will do, when one of
them, in an unguarded moment, stnmbled
over the tongue ofthe wagon and fell, trip
ping the other, and he also toqk to the
ground; The harners had t j be taken off
them before they could get. up, and then
they looked as if they had a perfect con-
tempt for themselves, particularly tbe one
which had first blundered oyer the tongue.
Come to think it, it vat a mortifiying situa
tion for a well regulated mule.
To Leave TJs.
We are very sorry to know that Mr D R
Leak is to leave u, sure enough. He will
move bis tobacco factory to Salem, and
there set up business, where the weed is abun
dant. There are A great many people in
tbis town whom we would rather, see leave
it than Uncle Davy Leak. In all the range
of our acquaintance, there is not a roan who
can take his place ; he ain't like anybody
else ; be don't look like anybody else, nor
he don't talk or act like anybody else. He
can say funnier things, and say them fun
nier than anybody else, and alj the time
never have it occur to him that be is getting
Off any thing ridiculous. Though not much
bigger than' a H-year-old boy, he can throw
down and drag out three-fourths of the six-
footers in town , and in short there is just
more life and fun in him, than in anybody
we ever aw. He is a good man to have
around, and -we are as sorry as can' be that
le is going away. However, since he xrdl
go, we bid him God-speed, and hope that he
will have all the success imaginable m his
new home. .

Suit Against the C. C. Railroad.
Tbe Rockingham Courier states that en
the night of Saturday, 1st of January, Mr
W S Ramsay, a Baltimore drummer, bought
a ticket at Lilesyille for Rockingham, re
questing the conductor to inform him when
he reached that point. At Pee Dee Station
he was told that that was his stopping place
and he erot off accjrdinjtlv. tbe conductor
" - I
eivtna him directions as to the streets. Ac. I
Not finding any street, Mr Ramsay returned
to the train, which was just then moving off.
The conductor called to him, telling him
that he was at the wrong station, but did
not stop the train, and it sped oft its way,
leaying the late passenger, behin l. There
was only one white family In the vicinity,
and they, could not take him in, owing, to
sickness in the. family. This was about
midnight, and he made his way to a negro
cabin bear by, where he Mt up over the
coals all the remainder of the night, fearing
to go to sleep,, lest he should he robbed of a
quantity of money which he had in his pos
session and which belonged to the firm
which he represented. The next morning
he rode a mule 10 miles to Rockingham,
aad now announces his intention to sue the
company for $1,600 damages.
Gov Vance lu Danville.
Ex-Gov Vance: of this city, went to Dan
ville, V last week, and delivered his leo
ture on "The Scattered Nation." Of the pro
duction tbe Times says : "The lecture which
has been so favorably rectiyed In other
places, afforded no less pleasure to his audi
ence in Danville.1 It was indeed a rare lite
rary treat." The same paper has the follow
ing : "Yesterday Gov Vance in company
with Maj Sutberlin, Col Flournoy, and Mr
J L Tyack, visited the Planters' Warehouse,
while the sales of tobacco were going on.
As soon as they were oyer, the crowd called
for Vance" vociferously. The Governor ex
pressed his surprise at being called on, on
such an occasion. . He made a little speech,
however, of about five minutes, which ex
ceedingly ammed his auditors. Amongother
things, he stated that he ceased to be surpris
ed at the prosperity of Danville, when he re
flected how near it was to North Carolina.
The crowd would have been disappointed, if
be had not told them an anecdote, and
sure enough he brought a very funny in
most appropriately. We never saw such a
man as Vance. He is ready on all occasions
and always pleases the peop'e."
Robbery on the Highway.
Last Saturday evening, while two Union
county firmers.R AFoard and M M Norcott,
were returning to their homes, having
been to this city with produce to sell, and
when about half a mile beyond the residence
of Mr B H Moore, which is within sight of
the city.- on the "Lawyer's Road, they
were assaulted on the road by a partyt of
five negroes, who Btepped from the road aid.
Mr Foard was walking a little distance be
hind the wagon, when Mr Norcott. who was
driving, heard him scream. Looking around
he saw him in tbe bands of these ruffians,
who quickly went through him, taking
charge of $25.75 which he'Tiad in his
pockets. As soon as they secured the mon
ey, they released bim. and he got in the
wagon. As this moved off. the scoundrels
fired at the occupants, and one ball lodged
in the thigh of Mr Norcott. He was brought
back to the city on Sunday morning,' and
Dr R H Gibbon extracted the ball. The oc
currence described above, took place a little
after dark.
A few evenings previous to this, , while
Mr Jeise Sanders, was going homo by the
same road, he was aceosted,at the trestle, on
thia aide of Mr Moore's residence, aoout
