The Treasurer's Office Of Henry Co.,
ut New Castle, Ind, was broken open and
robbed of about iIl 900, on the morning
of the 2ist ult. This has been the sec
ond time it has been robbed within a few
months. The first time the thieves blew
open the safe with powder and got about a
thousand dollars. The Treasurer then
procured q new safe, with three keys to IL.
These keye he took home with him on the
previous evening, and hid them in differ
ent places in his bedroom. In the night
his room was entered. chloroforn admin
istered to him and his wife. and two of tho
keys taken. The robbers did not succeed
in finding the other key, which belonged
to the inside door, but they got that open
by some other means. AS, however, they
locked the safe up again and carried away
the two keys, so that no one but the ma
ker can open it, nothing can certainly be
known abouteit till some one fIom the
makers gets, here. @
No c~c doubts, however, but that the
money IS gone, as the ianer door would
present mo- very serious obstacle to the
robbers after the outer oRes were open.--

The Mayor Of New York AMONG
the Lottery Dealers.

y ~|~~eeSN>e - q
Mayor Tiemann, of New York, has put
his knife at the root of TIE lottery and pol
ICY y7dealing nuisance. He has had the
principal establishment indicted in Geore
ga, where he discovered that the Law,
which originally licensed this kind ofbusi-
ness, had expired by its own limitation
years ago. The illegality Of the trade, it
seems, was not suspected in Georgia, and
when the Mayors officer appeared at
MilledgevlIe for the purpose of-procuring
the arrest of the guilty parties, il was diih-
cult to say whether his mission oceasioned
more delight than surprise. Seven per,
sons were indicted by the Grand jury of
Augusta within twelve hours after the off.
GERS arrival there. and among them the
name of Ben. Wood, brother Of ex Mayor
Wood. figures co1spicuousiy Wood not
being in the State, he was no. arrested, but
all OF the others save one, were arrested
and held to bail in the sum of Sc 900. It
is reported that requisition will be made
for Wood by Governor Brown.
This establishment, with, it's tap roots
IN Georgia, is said 10 be the most extensive
nuisance Of its kind in the United States,
It's weekly income being estimated at oaer
100000. The prompt cooperation of
the authorities Of Georgia to bring these
people to justice is no less. ommendabIe
than the energetic and fearless course OF
Mayor Tiemann, who, if he succeeds IN
the work he has so auspiciously begun,
viii place not only this city, but the whole
country, under unspeakable obligations to
him.--N Y. Post.

This Convention. held at MoHtgoeiery,
Ala. was Of less importance thaa its pre-
decessors. 1t was occupied nearly the
whole week in debating the question Of the
African siase trade, Mr.. SpIatt, of South
t,arolina. having presenteda repert in vim
dieatios Of that piracy. :, Wm. i. Yancev.
Of Alabana, was especially violent in de-
Tense of the slave trade, and abused the
Virginia delegates roupdly for opposing
It, telling them they were governed by sell
! fish regard for the slayc-breeding interest
Of Virginia, and that the foreign is no
worse, in principle. than tie domestic
slave trade-which is all quite true. He
also uptraijed Virginia with the emanci-
prtiqn p Q lixities OF her great men, Jeffer-
son and M:.lison--he might also have In
cluded Washiagton--sad with toleiating
Eli Thaycr's colonization project for
sboli'ionizing the State. These reproaches
caused much i'll feeling in the Convention.
The Convention,'in fact, became so inhar-
monious that the Tennessee delegates left
on the third day indisgust. They declared
that. from being Commercial Conventions,
these meetings had degenerated into mere
political clubs-.
Fillibuster Walker was received by, the
Convention with great enthusiasm. and a
report on the Americanization of Mexico
and Central America WAS adopted. Ii
WAS a covert sanction Of fillibustering.
Walker spent much time in private con
ference with the leading delegates, explain
ing anew scheme be has in process of in
cnbation. The next meeting of the Con-
'vention will be at Vicksburg, Miss. ON the
second Monday Of May next. By that time,
the fire-eaters will have agreed upon a
scheme for the revival of the slave trade,
and will very likely bo in condition TO
dictate it to the Democratic party as atest

on the Detroit and Milwaukee cars, the other day,
with conductor Norris. At Pontiac gentleman
we'll known to Norris got aboard, and took seat
Immediately opposite nice, sensitive young lady
He was addicted to the use of tobacco, and was en-
deavoring to break himself Of the habit, as he kept
an unlighted cigar in his mouth. When Norris
came along to collect and examine tickets, the
young lady very pettishly requested him to "have
that man stop putting his nasty cigar, or put him
out of the cars" "Why, madame" said Norris,
blandly, "the cigar is not lighted" "Well it has
been" she snapped out, "andhe's been putting his
nasty smoke in my face" Norris reached around
and took the cigar from his friends mouth, and
presenting it to Madam Squeamish, quietly asked,
'sWhieh end of it was lighted, madame ?" There
was general roar among the passengers, and the
young lady wilted.
