HARD AFTER THEM.-The Vigilance
Committees in the towns down along the
river, are endeavoring to purge the islands
from the thieves that have been commit
ting so frequent and daring depredations
in the towns adjacent to the river. There
have been several daring burglaries re-
Gently committed at Lansing and Lacrosse.
Large amounts of property have been
found secreted on islands near Lansing.
The villains who broke into the Hudson
City Bank, have been traced to this
sland, but the officers have not succeeded
in capturing them,
From reports below we learn that the
various committees have secured the SER
vices of Judge Lynch, and consequently
raw hides, hemp and Colts revolvers are
in great demand This is the only radi-
cal cure for this growing evil; it will re-
quire some decisive action on the part Of
the people to eradicate this desperate
curse. Let the people take the matter
into their own hands, and make frequent
applications of the ''hemp," and we shall
have but little fear of farther trouble with
these marauders.

to take the first unassisted step, to be an
hour longer from the pillow-to sit once
more with the family circle, to venture in
to the open air and feel the better for it,
yet all the while be little tremulous with
fear-this is getting well. 1t is to the
frame, something as Spring is to reviving
Nature, when we are not quite sure it
has done showing, not sure but a narrow
breadth of Winter "a ''relapse," you
know, lies between us and the full boss
oming violet and snowdrop. One feels a
new life tingling in his veins and it seems
as if this wondrous machinery of his was
just set in motion. The faces of acquain-
tances too wear strange look and only
by degrees do they grow familiar.
But a weakness in the arm-a trem-
bling of the hand, and dizziness of the
brain, warn us to close this article lest the
fatigue of writing interfere with our own
getting well.

Singular Charge Of a Judge,

The following is the substance Of the
Judgment pronounced by Judge Nutall,
upon the verdict mot guilty" by the jury
in behalf of Hardesty:
SIR: You have been indicted by a
grand jury Of your county upon a most
henious charge. You have put yourself
upon your country and your God for your
deIiverance. You have had fair and
impartial trial before them, and they have
both pronounced you noc guilty, and so
say I. Tt may be improper for me to ex-
press my sentiments, yet nevertheless, L
will do it. Young man! had l been
wrouged as you have been, [ would have
spent every dollar l had on earth, and all
that l could have begged and borrowed,
and then starved upon the track of the
villain, but I would have inbued my
hands in bis blood Go hence, without
delay. You are acquitted.

have good reasons for believing that those
who have been in the habit of entering
the Academy on Sunday, are not foreign
intruders, but live among US, and that
they are those who should have more re-
spect for themselves than to perform such
despicable acts.
We trust those who have been in the
practice of efecting an entrance into the
Academy on the Sabbath, will have too
much regard for themselves and the COM
munity to attempt it in future.

GETTIvG WELL.-Nature is full of
compensations. If "every rose has its
thorn, it is no less true that sunshine
follows storm-that smiles succeed to
tears, and every sorrow bears within it the
germ of some yet undeveloped joy. The
compensation, (not the Doctors, but your
own) for sickness, is getting well.
Sickness of itself, has some blessings
which are peculiarly its own. We do not
think on the whole it is any great pro
moter ofhuman happiness, there is moth
ing peculiarly inspiring or exhilerating IN
it. To occupy a recumbent position for
twenty four hours in the day-to discard
the use of pants, and forget the feet OF a
boot-to lose sight of solid food and be-
come familiar with cruel and kindred liq-
aid, unsubstantial stuff-to feel hush
in the room, and mark the suppressed
voice and subdued manner of those who
enter ito have the Doctor constant
and regular caller, and grow accustomed
to the sight of walls, and powders, IA kind

What kindly greetings from friends and
