the following particulars of a severe storm
which recently visited that section. Tbe
Herald says:
On Monday afternoon, at about fi
o'clock, we had a very heavy storm of
wind and ram, but no serious damage was

etc., in this immediate vicinity.
At Ansonville large trees were blown
down, bat the main force of the . storm
commenced at a point about one and a
halt miles northeast of Wadesboro at the
plantatioc'of Atlas Jowers where fences

and several out-houses on Wm. Garris'
plantation were destroyed also his bug-
gy. John j Williams, on tne adjoining
farm, also lost heavily. He and his wife
were standing in the passage of bis house
and were blown out, some distance from
the house.
We learn that the storm caused
great devastation on Dr. W.

One More Game
- ' i .j '
A match of base ball was played yes
terday afternoon between the Star Light

ed in a victory for the Star Light. The
score was 28 for the first Lamed and 27
for the latter.
Affray at the WhltHeld House.
The Whitfield, House, a rival shanty
of the Long House, on Surry, street was
the scene ef a conflict this morning be
tween Fanny Brewington, Sophia Hall,
Tilla Hall, and Jane Hines, four colored
women who were marched up to the City
Hall under the escort
M. James. But upon
of officer Francis
reaching the Hall,
Captain Brock, Chief;' of Police learned
that a warrant had already been issued by
Justice Millis for the arrest of the parties,
and they were consequently released from
the custody of the city officer and imme
diately arrested by a constable who cited
the.n to appear at Justice Millis' Court at
3 o'clock this afternoon for trial.
I I' a Sample Copy.
We have received a copy of a paper
which appears under the very significant
name of "Man." It'is devoted to the dis
i i
emination of liberal and infidel ideas, 'and
contains "a call for a Liberal Convention
to be held in Cincinnati, Ohio, on the 13th
and 14th of the present month. Among
the nam ps of those who issue the call we
find Col. Robert G. Ingersoll, the I noted
Infidel lecturer, James Parton, the u-
thor, historian and free-thinker, Parker
Pillsbury, one of the pioneers in the ant:
slavery movement, and J. R. Mendum
i ublisher of the Boston Investigator, a
notoriously infidel sheet which delights in
making a mockery of the Bible and its
teachings. The paper came marked as a
"sample copy," and we are satisfied it is
a very fair sample of a very bad cause.
Points in Etiquette

enclosed in an envelope signifies that visit
ing between the persons is ended.
