Guthrie, Register in Bank ruptcy ,is registerei at the Purcell 'House. Mr. James Groves, the popular young man who use to smile uj on customers over Mr. S Q. Northrop's confectionery counter, and who sometimes "ran with the Hook an4 Ladder boys, has gone tp SpTtanburg, S C to start a branch hou:e iu the confectionery business A CUriuOS Buff. A lady residing in this city discovered, a few days since, a very peculiar bug, the like of which is a great rarity in these parts. Many who have examiued it state that they have neverjseen anything of the kind before. It was found on the leaf of in oleander tree and is evidently of the beetle species. It somewhat resembles a conch, is enclosed entirely within a shell, with the exceptiou of its tail, which its hooked into a leaf and gives no evidence of either feet or wings. It has been left at Messrs Green & Planner's drugj store where amiteur uaturalists may examine it. J Simplicity of Dress. Female loveliness never appears to so good an advantage as when set off with simplicity of dress. No artist ever decks his ange'.s with towering feathers and gaudy jewelry; and eur dear human an gels, if they would maki their title good to that name, should carefully avoid or naments whioh properly belong to Indian squaws and A frican princesses. These tinselnes may serve to give effect on the stage or upon a ball-room floor, but in daily life there is to substitute for the charm of simplicity. A vulgar taste is not to be disguised by gold and dia monds. The absence of a truo taste and real refinement of delicacy cannot be compensated for by the possession of great beauty or the m( a"; princely fortune. Strangers in the city should not fail to vitit the Sish Factory, foot of Walnut street. 1 it The New Counterfeit. The following is a description ! of the new counterfeit $5 note on the National Stste Bank of Troy, N.

The old genuine issue of this, bank, which has the pointed seal(bears the name of F. E Spinner, Treasurer. In tie counterfeit the word Treasurer undjer the uame of Allison is spelt Treasury.

C. Blount, colored, arrested for rap ping for a policeman, was discharged the .Mayor stating that more discretion should have been exercised hy the officer who made the arrest. j Kit Uugins, the inimitable Secretary of War from the Hollow, was next ar raigaed on the charge of assault and bat tery upon the person of her I maj -sty, Fanny Gore, the Queen of the same claps:c precinct, and received a sentence of $25 fine or thirty days in the City Prison. This is the first time that kit has come within the purvit w of the law sufficiently to be grabbed by the police and they made good j the opportunity, Fanny Gore was next arraigned upon the charge of disordorly conduct, in that she converted herself into a battaring rani for the purpose of demolishing the Sec retary of War's headquarters. Her sen tence was 810 fiUo or twenty days in the C. P. 'lhe Quen went below. J bn Broadway, colored, and Wm Wright, colored, were both arreted last night coming out of the' W. & W R.

The Mayor told them to leave town before sundown and to "git" as sooa as possible. j The next case called, was T. wi Costir, charged with forestalling the market. The evidence failed to 'convict and the case was dismissed. W. E. Davis, and W. B. D avis were also charged with the atne offence. The evidence was conclusive thit , the parties had (purchased before the hour prescribed by the"ordinance,but Mr. W. E Davis, principal defendant in the case claimed that he was not subject to the law as applied to hucksters that he claim ed an inherent right as a citizen to Ibuy and sell any article of produce, whether from the forest or the rivers, as much . as any merchant in the city of Wilmington who; bought cotton by th9 million. The defendant sta ted as a rrlatter of informa tion for the Court that in eight months there had been shipped from this port 9,000 pounds weight of fish alone on ice and that if the Board of Aldermen and I liis Honor, ai Chief Executive Officer of that Board, chose to lay an embargo on this trade why he would have to submit for the present. The case not coming within t ie provisions of the ordinance as applied to hucksters was dismissed. Fifth Street 31. E Church. The series of meetings which were in augurated a this church aboutfive weeks since have been continued with unabated interest until the present time, resulting thus far in about 180 couversionf. We are pleased to learn that the meetings are still in progress, with no perceptible diminution in religious fervor. Penitents are presenting themselves at the altar at every meeting, asking the prayers of the pious that they may be led to know the tulluessof reconciliation ai;d pardon from on High. Kev. B. R Hall, the pastor, has labored iudefatigably iu the cause, and he has been abl assisted by Itev. Mr. Mcpherson and his wife, who have been earnest pleaders for the salvation of souls. An Omission Supplied. In noticing the arrest, a few days since of a mail agent who bad been for about a year depredating upon the mails between Troy, Montgomery county, and Bostick's Mills, we omitted to state that the case was worked to a successful result by Maj. Chamberlain, of the Secret Service Division of tne Post Office Department. Drj. W. F. tlarllee, formerly cf tl e -AWi Carolina Argus has assumed a position in1 the editoiiil department of the Rockingham Spirit of the, South. Dr. Uarllee is a fine writer, but he is a Democrat, and the Spirit we have always heretofore thought to be a Republican paper. How the difference is to be re couciled we are not informed. ,Capt. X.
