Norton the Burglar.

We have been favored, says the Trenton
True american, with an authentic account of
the attempt made by the burglar, Norton, to
escape from the State Prison on Wednesday.
1t seems that Mr.. Snyder was not engaged in
any particular work in the convicts' cell, but
was merely going the rounds, making the usu-
al examinations, when he came to Norton's
apartment, who diverted his attention by hand
ing him two letters, and then picking up a
large knife, which had evidently been obtained
by some unknown means for the purpose.
Hbrandishing it and exclaiming that he was 90
ing to die, dashed from his cell into the aisle.
and up to the center, where he was met by
Marshall Carman. He rushed on, exclaiming.
shoot me, shoot me-" passing through the
iron door leading into the hall, where his fur
ther progress was stopped by the grated win
dow adjoining the front street. Mr.. Carman
was at first somewhat startled, but recovering
himself, pursued Norton closely, calling upon
him to surrender and return to bis cell. He
answered that he would die first, and putting
himself in a defensive attitude, stood at bay,
bidding defiance to one and all. Finding all
entreaties in vain, and believing it necessary
that the discipline of the prison should be
maintained, Mr.. Stoll ordered Mr.. Carnan to
fire upon him. The order was obeyed, the
shot taking effect in the wrist of his right arm.
For an instant the knife was held with a con-
vulsive grasp, then the hand of the wounded
arm relaxed its hold, and the knife fell to the
floor. There was therefore no necessity to
threaten to fire upon him a second time, as we
have stated before. AS soon as the knife
dropped, he was secured and taken back to
cell. The several officers of the prison are
said to have acted with a promptness and res
olution worthy of much credit.

Curious Condolences.

Mr. Fields letter to the Associated Pres,
shows solme curious c~oincidences in the matter
of laying the cable, Fhe 29th of the month
seems to play quite an important part, both
for good and evil, in its history. Thus. for
instance, the telegraph feet sailed from PIy.
mouth on the experimental trip on the 29th Of
May. The cable was broken at the stern Of
the Agamemnon, on the first attempt to Law
it, on the 29th Of June and the splice in mid
ocean OIL the last and successful ATTEMPT was
effected on the 29th of July.
The 9th of August, too, seems to be mar e.
eslsp@, the red letter day in the company,s
calendar. On that day in l757, the Niagara
landed the end Of the cable On the Irish shore.
and on that same Identical day in 1858. the
same vessel landed the other end Of the cable
on the shore Of Newfoundland-both ends Of
the cable being thus laid by the Niagara
On the third Of August, 1851, the telegranh
squadron left the Cove Of Cork for Valentio
Bay, and on that very same day-365 Years
before-the little squadron which carried
Columbus on bis FIRST voyage of discovery. to
these shores, weighed anchor from the port Of
Palos in Andalusia.
These are curious and most noteworthy
condolences in connection with the great
event of the age.

Political Retrogression.

Eighty years have elapsed since the Declar-
alton of Independence, and nearly seventy
since the formation of the Constitution,
What great improvements have been made
In political science, subsequent to the Revolu-
tionaryperiod? Can you point out any? We
must confess that we cannot Then the great
principles of Civil and Religious Liberty were
fully understood and carried out. Then, pure
and disinterrested patriotism prevailed through
out the country. The laws were everywhere
respected and enforced. The rights OF all
were equally protected. Virtue was upheld
and encouraged, and Vice suppressed and
frowned down. The subject of Slavery wal
freely, openly and publicly discussed, without
provoking the jealousy of the South; and tht
enormous evil itself, in all the Nosthern ant
Western, and in most of the Middle State,
promptly and speedily abolished. h
Contrast the political condition of the com

FIRE.

The Store occupied by Samuel S. Wyckoff
near Oceanport, was discovered to be on fire
about halfpast IL o'clock, on Thursday night
last. The FIRE when first seen, was bursting
through the roof of the building, and on break.
ing open the door, the inside was found to be
a solid sheet of fame. The building and Goods
were totally consumed. Nothing was saved
but the plows which were on the stoop.
Mr.. Wyckoff shut up the Store about 10
o'clock, and went home, a distance of nearly
six miles, and, consequently knew nothing
of the fire until the next morning when he
car back to open the Store. he suppose s
the fire must have originated from a spark
blown from the candle, when he put out the
light on closing the store.
The building was owned by Mr.. William
Croxen, and was not insured. The loss to
Mr.. Wyckoff is perhaps, about $4,000; on
which there was an insurance in the Shrews-
bury Fire Insurance Company of $1400. Mr..
Wyckoff had providentally taken his Books
home several days before the fire took place
to have them posted up, and they were conse-
quently saved. But all his bills. papers, &c,
were burned. This gentleman is peculiarly
unfortunate, having had his house burned some
two or three years ago with no insurance.

Well Said.

The Harrisburg Telegraph refuses to publish
a communication from q correspondent, re-
commencing candidate for Office, and ac.
companies thew efusal with the following very
appropriate remarks
eve feel disposed to oblige any of our
friends political or otherwise but we cannot
lend our columns or influence to any mans
political interests who is too penurious to
patronize q journal Of his party, althoug both
wealthy and ambitious. There is too great a
disposition on the part of politicians to make
of journals stepping stones in political favor,
without q thought Of the patronage which is
necessary to give power to the influence they
invoke. Indeed, nine-tenths of those who
glide into position upon the waves of politics,
do it through the influence of their Local
journals, to which they have scarce contribu
ted the pittance of a years subscription.
They seem to think it is a duty which a Jour
nal owes to every individual constituting a
party, to further their claims without a
thought of the reciprocal obligations which
the assumed position of each imposes.

Destroying Eighty Thousand Dollars

A correspondent of the London Times re
lates the following s%tory--if story it is-loca
ting the parties in Vienna, Strange thing,
may happen frequently in the old country :,
A few days ago a Barren Silherstein dice
here, and after his death no money was found
IN his house, though he had always passed fol
a wealthy man. Inquiries were made by hi.
heir, and on its being discovered that a ban.
ker had paid into his hands the sum of ITO.
600 forms but a few days before his death,
bis valet was arrested by a policeman on sus.
picion of having made way with the money.
AS the man said that his master left his bed
a couple Of days before he died, in order to
burn some papers in the stove, the bedroom
was searched. Nothing but the remains of
documents were found, and the servant was
kept in custody until it occurred to some one
that it might be as we'll to examine the other
stoves. The examination was made, and the
numerous remains of bank notes of 1000 for
Jus each, proved the innocence of tbs valet
and distructiveness of bis master The Bar
on who was divorced from his wife, often ex-
pressed doubts about the Legitimacy of his
only son; and in order that he should profit
as little as possible by his death, he burned
bank notes to the value of ITO, 900 forms
(gI6,500). When the door of the stove was
opened, the word g thousand was distinctly
visible on many of the consumed notes, which.
OF course fell to pieces when touched.
