Daring Attempt at Robberr. Yesterday morning, about 5 o'clock, a daring attempt at robbery was made at the residence of CoL J. Q. Burr, who resides on Front street, near the Methodist Church. It appears that the thief got an empty bar rel from the; back part of the yard and placed it under one of the front windows, when, by the use of a chisel, which was left behind, and which Col.- B. now has in his possession, he succeeded in prying open the blinds and raising the sash.' He then en tered the window, which opened upon the staircase, and proceeded up stairs, i It hap pened that both Col. Burr and .hiswife were awake at the time, while a small lamp was burning near the head of the bed, and hearing a slight noise, their attention was attracted to the door opening into their room, the shutter of which they noticed was being gradually opened. ColJB. whis pered to his wife to be quiet, and the two remained perfectly still and .watched the door, the shutter continuing 4o mo slow ly bu t ierept!bly upon its hinges until the apert ire had assumed the proportions of about two feet, when, stealthily and warily the 1 ead and shoulders of a colored man were protruded into the room, and be began to take an observation of the aurrounrlinira . Tf C!n1nnfi Tlnn could have laid his hand uoon his pistol! at that moment he could easilv have -, I Bnot the fellow, but unfortunately it was in one or me arawers or tne bureau some V . m . m m feet from him. His clothing, the pockets ef which the thief no doubt expected to search, were-hanging in the rear of the head of the bed, and the wandering gaze of the burglar finally rested upon them, but in looking in that direction, and the lamp reflecting its lighvipon the bed, he must ! i&to realized the fact ' that at least one puir of eyes were fastened . upon him, for he suddenly withdrew his head and closed the door-shutter. As he I did so. Col. Burr sprang fromthe bed, rushed to the door and seized the knob to open it, but found that the thief had hold of it on the outside. He finally released his grasp upon it, however, and with almost one bound was at the bottom of the stairway and out at the window by which he bad entered. - There were no indications that the fellow, who was barefooted, had visited any other room than the one which Col. B. and b is wife occupied. stow He Won Her and How He Lect Her. Wc heard a joke on a certain party ia this city which is too good 'to be lost, though of course we shall suppress seems that the gentlamrfn. worthy widower, had wisely come to the conclusion that "it is not well for man to be alone" and that a state of "single-bless- Us realization, so'eSncmucu ?Iew?JeJi? to himself a wife. The resolution was no sooner formed than he went to, work to put it int ) execution at the earliest possible moment. He sought the lady of his choice,; went through the usual preliminaries, pro-' pounded the important question, jwas ac cepted and was happy. An early day was fixed Tor the consummation of his; earthly bliss, and he went straightway and pur chase! a fine turkey, got a No. i baker to fix up Borne choice cake, etceteras and or dered the articles sent to the bride's resi dence. So far everything moved smoothly ; but the day before the ceremony was to be performed which was to make , j "Two souls with but a single thought,' Two hearts that beat as one," he heard a whisper that something was wrong. It inspired him to investigate. He went Ito the office of the Register of Deeds for that purpose. He sought for some thing which he fondly hoped he conld not find ; jbut, there it was, staring him boldly in the face! And what was it? Nothing more! nor less than the duplicate ot a .mar riage license issued to another .party, with the name of his beloved figuring as the bride. Ie ,didnot,fain he rush headlong to the wharf and plunge into the raging Cape Fear, but he posted to the residence of his intended with the I view of giving her "a piece of his mind" in refer4 eccetoher inconstancy. Arriving at the house, however, fancy his feelings .when he found that the marriage ceremony had already been performed, his turkey and other fixings having .formed part and parf eel of the marriage "supper, and ' that the l happy bride nd groom naa aepartea tor the country, where his successful rival re sides. - This is but another demonstration of the Shaksperean maxim ,that "theeourse of true, love never did run smooth.?
