SELLING BEFORE MARKET HOURS
A man named Dunkle, who came to
market for Col. Thos. Neal, of Dun.
more tp., was arrested last Saturday
for a violation of the ordinance which
prohibits selling in market before the
ringing Of the bell, Gan hour before
sunrise.) 1t appeared that before
that time some one stopped at his wa
gon and asked the price of a pigs
head. Dunkle named the price, when
the man said he would take it, and
threw it forward to the front of the
wagon, to wait his calling for it.
Upon this Dunklc was arrested, taken
before Alderman Van Camp, fined 81
and costs, amounting in all to about
$3.50. The purchaser of the pigs
head did not return to comsumate the
bargain, and Dunkle thought it was a
hard case, pleading that the sale was
uncompleted, and that he ought not
to be held amenable, but the Alder
man decided otherwise.-[Lancaster

The Process Of Popular Economy.

The Process Of Popular Economy.
The most heaIthful result Of the pres
ent pressure in money affairs,is the alacri-
ty with which every class Of society has
resorted to retrenchment. There is not a
household, from the richest to the poorest,
that has not adopted this practice. Spend
thrift habits are given up without sigh.
In the course of time, the effect will be
visible. 1t is strange sight to see twen-
ty-six millions Of people, who have been
rushing along III one mad career ofex:rav-
agance, hal.ing suddenly in midway, and
giving up all their expensive course Of
life. No nation in the world is capable OF
such an act Of self.sacriice. Henceforth,
economy will become as fashionable as was
the reverse only few weeks ago. The
enormous expenses for apparel will be cut
down at least three.fourths, while the pas
sion for great houses, public aud private,
SPLENDID furniture, luxurious carriages
and the thousand ct ccteras which attend
and follow such follics, will soon become
that part of history of which all who par
ticipate in it will be most heartily asham-
ed. When all the white people Of the
United States reduce their unnecessary
expenses one shilling day, it makes a
difference Of eighteen millions Of dollars
q week, and over fifty millions every
month. If the nation could be kept on a
reasonable short allowance from now to
the first of January, what We would save
alone mako us rich.
