a Delicate CaSe.--A few days since, a
Medical gentleman of this place, being
called upon very urgent business to small
house near were he boarded, while there
had occasion to take out his watch, an ele-
giant, doubled-cased gold patent lever and

the house, a lady, who just arrived in one
Of the western stages, entered the same
building which Galen had Just left, and
after staying short time left also. Upon
missing his ticker which he did in a short
time afterwards, the Doctor ran back, and
searched, and felt all around, but alas! no
watch was there to crafty his touch, The
thought, however, struck, him, that as no
one except the lady had been in the house
besides himself, she must have taken the
watch. Madam in the meanwhile retired
to bed. A search-warrant was however
procured, and Constable TroreH and the
Doctor attended by some amateurs, pro-
ceeded to the bedchamber, and applied for
admittance. After some delay, this was
granted. The lady was in bed-and made
objections, as any other would naturally do
in such case-but Sc arched, they said she
must be-the law was stern and unyielding
and neither spare ladies in night clothes; nor

deal Of ingenuity had been displayed by

finally discovered--were guess you, gentle

were in the doctor shop!
With promise never to do such a
naughty trick again, she was dismissed by
the justice.
She is respectable married woman, and
that is the reason we withhold her name,
as we sincerely believe tn is to be the first
time she sinned in the way of stealing.

THE GOLD BILL of 1884.

All the London papers speaking of the
money shipped to the United States, cali it
gold. The word specie is not used by them.
The uniform expression is gold or sover-
eigns. Thus The million sterling to Prime,
Ward, and King, is always mentioned as
one million Of sovereigns, or simply as a
shipment Of gold to the amount of million
sterling: and of all the rest. In counting
up about two and half sterling either ship
ped or about to be shipped to New York,
the expression is always the same, to wit:
gold or sovereigns. To those who know
any thing of the English currency, all this
is understood; for the English have no sill
yer except for change, and that alloyed nine
per cent. Silver is not tender in England
except for sums of forty shillings and I'M
der. They have, therefore, no silver to
ship, and all they send abroad is in gold;
and of the twelve or fifteen millions arri-
wing, and arrived, in the country, almost
the whole is in gold; yet the federal papers
in New York, in speaking of these arrivals
seduously eschew that word gold! Not one

THE CHARLESTON FIRE,

The Governor of South Carolina has
issued proclamation calling an extra ses-
sion of the legislature for the 2Sth ult. to
take into consideration measures for reliev-
ing the city of Charleston fIom the effects
of the late fire. Governor Buffers proc
lamation contains these paragraphs:
'The recent fire in Charleston has laid
waste las acres Of the most popuIous part
of the city; has destroyed buildings and
their contents, valued between three and 4
millions of dollars: has deprived greatnum-
bers of Industrious men of the means of re-
Installing their property, prostrated in the
common devastation. 1t has greatly inju-
red all the insurance offices, and rendered
bankrupt others in the state; the amount of
property insured elsewhere being compar-
atively small.
''It has deprived the bank debtors not
only of the means of paying their debts,
but of procuring further loans and facilities,
now, more than ever, greatly needed, and
in many cases absolutely Indispensable, to
save the unfortunate debtor from utter de.
structibn. 1t has put to hazard the ultimate
success Of our great national plans of i'm.
provemeht, the Western Railroad, and the
domestic Importing Company; and with
these it threatens to jeopardize the future
prosperity, and the high character and stan
ding of the state; which so nobly patroniseC
these wise and extensive schemes of public
improvement.
'Under these circumstances, the late mis-
fortune assumes, decidedly; not partia
and local, but general and national aspect
In various ways it will be felt, Throughout
the whole state; for the beneficial influence
of Charleston is, and ought to be felt, il
every part of South Carolina; and the par
tial prostration of our whole country; al
fecting in some way or other, all its com
mercial and agricultural pursuits"

Fatal Encounter.-About two or three
weeks ago, says the Louisville Journal, a
quarrel occurred between Mr.. A. G. Wood
son, and Mr.. Charles Scott, both of Ran
dolph, Tenn, and the former sent chal-
lenge to the. latter. ScottIeplied in writing
-"For sufficient reasons / will not fight
you a duel; if you think this cowardce,
you can see me at any time in the street."
The note was handed TO Woodson on the
morning Of the 2Sth ult., and he Immediate
ly armed himself to attack Scott IN the
street. Twice Scott got out of the way to
avoid an encounter, but Woodson at length
stationed himself near the door of ware
house which S. had entered, and, when he
came out, addressed him in harsh language,
at the same time drawing pistol. Scott,
seeing Woodson's pistol, instantly drew
his own and shot lis autaganist in the neck e.
Woodson fred without effect. They then
closed, and in the struggle, Woodson nfic-
ted wound on SCOTS head with the butt
of his pistol, and Scott shot Woodson abont
three inches below his heart Woodson
died in about four days. Scot was taken
before an examining Court and discharged.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.

A case of considerable interest was re-
Gently tried at the New York sessions. Pat
rick Tracy, resident of Willet street,
well known at the police office, and man
of family and property, was tried for as
saulting and robbing Mr.. William Post, an
elderly gentleman of large fortune, and ex-
tensively known as a dealer in paints, at
the corner of Water and Fletcher streets.
The robbery took place at twilight, on the
evening of the 18th of December. Mr..
Post was returning from his store to his
dwelling house, with about $l70 in money
and a large amount of securities, in tin
box tied in a handkerchief. When in the
neighborhood of IL Cherry street he was
assaulted and knocked down by three per-
sons, one of whom stole the box and all
three ran off.
The prosecution called on the stand two
prisoners, named Quick and Nowland, who
while in Jail, made voluntary confessions
that they accompanied Tracy, at his sug-
gestion, for several nights, to perpetrate the
robbery, and although they had no commu-
nication with each other while in Jail, coin
cided in all the particulars of the robbery.
These witnesses were of infamous charac-
ter, and their testimony would have been
considered worthless, but for the fact of the
robbery having been witnessed by a very
intelligent little girl, and two equally intel
ligent boys, who were on the opposite side
of the street at that time. The girl return
ed to her dwelling house and gave notice of
the fact, but the boys followed the robbers,
and had foil view Of the face Of the accu-
sed. When taken to the police office they
separately designated Tracy, among fifteen
persons assembled. The girl had never
been in court house before yesterday, and
having given her testimony, was directed
to look around the room to ascertain if she
could designate the man who assaulted Mr..
Post. In less than a minute she pointed
to Tracy, exclaiming "that is the man."
These proofs were irresistible.
The defence set up was an alibi. Several
persons appeared who swore, positively,
that they were in company with the accu-
sed from early in the afternoon till late in
the evening of the night of the robbery, at
the house of the prisoner They all un-
derwent strict scrutiny, and however
much they may have been disposed to tes-
tify truly, it is probable they were in error
in regard to the day.
The prisoner was defended with great
ability by ex-Recorder Rik6r, Mr.. Maxwell
and Mr.. Tallmadge. The prosecution was
conducted by Messrs. Phenix and Morrel.
1t was proved on trial that Mr.. Riker held
mortgage on the prisoners property. The
- Il ~ A M n,,A n ,,arI.o
of guilty was rendered at half past two in
the morning. The penalty is perpetual i'm
prisonment at hard labor.

1892 aga
1885 2905
During his infancy, as we have been in
formed, his father removed to Cumberland
county, where Joseph was raised to man.
hood. The following are the majorities
which his foster mother Cumberland has
given against him:
In 1899 79s
1882 5l9
1885 8Sl
He then moved to Westmoreland county
where he resided while. The following
are the maiorities his step mother West
moreland has given against him:
In 1929 1853
1882 1893
1885 1917
lie next removed to Washington coun-
~. Here he has received the following
majorities:
In 1929 ISL
1882 l40
1885 334
At both elections since that time, Wash
ington county has given majority against
the Ritner ticket, and the best political cal
culators there say, Ritner will be beaten in
his own county at the next election.
PORTER AT HOME.
In 1885 Joseph Ritner received in Hun
tingdon county, 500 majority. In 1886,
David r. Porter, running against popular
friend Of Ritner's, received in Huntingdon
county majority Of $40 votes, making a
change of l,l57' In 1895 Joseph Ritner
received in the district now represented by
David r. Porter, a majority Of upwards Of
1900. In 1896 David R. Porter received
in the same district majority Of 800,
thus making change of 45O0 VOTES.
Some Of those who in 1895 supported Rit-
ner, and who are good Judges, say that
Porter's majority next October will be in
Huntington county, 500 votes.

---.1n 1nc1dent of WeSteTn Llfe.-Ihe IL
linois Republican contains an account of
the trial Of young lady for being accesso-
ry TO the murder of DR.. Dalton, at Knox
vile, her own brother standing indicted as
the principal. The trial excited great in
terest, not only on account of the youth and
beauty Of the prisoner, but from the remar-
kable circumstances that led to the untime-
ly fate of the son of Galen. 1t appeared
by the evidence, that the deceased went
some time in the winter to the residence of
the accused, and informed her that one of
| her female acquaintances, in the country,
was sick, and was anxious to see her, and
said, as he was compelled to visit her friend,
he being her physician, he would give her
a seat in his sleigh if she wished to go.
The doctor being a man of family and good
character, she accepted of the offer. The
lady was wrapt up in furs, and the morning
proving very fine, she bid her brother gaily
adieu, and said she should most likely be
absent some days. When they had pro-
ceeded about twenty miles, the Doctor told
his companion with many protestatons OF
love and affection, that her friend was moi
sick, and that he had resorted TO the sub
terfuge with the view of compelling her to
sacrifice her honor to him, and that in case
of her refusal, he meant to take her life.
The lady resisting all his peadings, he
drew dagger, and would have inflicted
some bodily injury upon her if her Screams
had not frightened his horses, causing then
to run away, and throwing her persecutol
out upon the ground. While the horses
were at full speed the high spirited girl go
: out the back of the carriage unhurt, claimed
> the protection Of some men at work in al
e adjoining wood, who conducted her to
: neigboring farmers, where she was kindly
furnished with a carriage, and protected
back to her friends.
e The brother of the lady then took lega
y means to have the Doctor brought to jus
e tice, and he was bound over in the sum o
! $4,000, to appear and answer for the as
J.. sault. On his liberation, he caused it to b.
