Local Matters.

The HEIGHT OF FoLLY.-A ruffian, who must have
become very desperate in his circumstances, at
tempted to rob ''jour printer In this city, at
about IL o'clock on Wednesday night The "pro-
fessor of the black art" was jogging along home,
at the rate of about ga thousand an hour" when,
at the ofthe Avenue and Sixteenth street, an
enterprsing and adventurous robber seized him by
the throat, and, in good, plain English, demanded
his money. Compliance with this demand would not
have been very expensive, "quoins' were not
abundant but Types stood upon his rights, and in
jiffy thrust one foo! behind the heel Of the be-
sieger, as he tapped him on the smeller with his
fist The result was that the gentleman fell to the
pavement, his occiput striking it with severity.
Types finding himself thus emancipated, and ig-
norant Of the arms, equipments, and reinforce
ments of his assaant, thought judicious to shut
lie off, which he did in remarkably expert man
"WE'LL MEET AT THE HATTER's," as the beaver
said to the otter. There was an exchange of hats
on New Years day in the hall of certain man
sion. Two gentlemen knew their own hats and
heads respectively as they catered, but were not
SO fortunate in Identifying them as they came out.
The precise measure of either the hat the head
not clearly understood. On the following
morning, however, while one of the gentlemen
found some difficulty in holding little breadbrim
on his head, the other had no less trouble in keep
ing great large narrowbrim off his eyes. 1t
30 happened, however, that each Of the gentlemen
applied to Topp for hat, and each related
his mishap; and Todd had but to say "presto,
change 20 and all right; each head got into
its own hat, and each hat on its own head. But
Todd has learned secret, if he will but profit by
it. Should it ever happen that he cannot fit Gus
toner, he has but to put him into drunken fit,
and then any hat in the heap will answer.
JUVENILE SAGAcITY,-''Ma, look at that gentle
man. said little girl on the Avenue yesterday
pointing at the same time with her finger. "Don't
my child, DON'T" said the mother, fearful that the
gentleman would observe her impoliteness. "But
ma look at him, look at him." persisted the child
"hasn't he caterpillar over his MOUTH" emo
my child, it's his moustache," replied the affrghted
ma, as she hurried by The gentleman smiled un-
til dentist might have coveted the natural speci-
mems he revealed.
CRIMINAL CouRT.-The trial Of the notorious sill
YER plate thieves was commenced yesterday, and
will be continued to-day.

UNION MANEsTATIoNs.-Sin the last session,
and the incre,ed manifestations in favor of the
Union, six menbers of Congress have given prac-
teal demonstrations of their patriotism by enter
ing into matrimonial compromises, or adjust

necucut, Gilmre of Pennsylvania, Rose OF New
YORK, and Thmas OF Tennessee, set the laudable
example; andhr. Holloway, of New York, was,
on the 9th instnt, married TO Miss f. G.. Waring,
