Murder in Juniaua County.

The True Democrat, Of the lith instant,
gives an account of n most shocking mur~
der in that county-the murdered man,
named Henry Anker, being seventy FIVE
years old and quite feeble. 1t appears
that on last Sunday evening, about seven
o clock, the family, which consisted of
Mr.. Anker, his grand daughter, aged H.
and another female, having all retired to
bed but the young girl, II rap was heard
at the door, which was locked; after re-
ceiviug orders from Mr.. Anker, the girl
opened the door, when two men entered.
The one took position at the door, the
other going up to Mr. Anker, demanded
his money, who replied that be had not
ten dollars in the house." The person
spoke his determination to have what
there was. BY this time Mr.. Anker had
arisen from his bed and made an attempt
to get hold of loaded gun which wac
near by, saying he would see whether he
would get it or not. when the murderer
fired pistol he held ia his hand, the
charge taking effect in the arm of Mr..
Anker at the elbow. 1t seems to have
been the intention TO have the shot take
effect in the head and kill instantly, but
lilt pei DtlldlOI was IIlolhhNll Ill Jllb 1llll
\ fter he had fred, and finding his fiepd.
ish desire was not yet accomplished, he
struck his victim on the head with u
Ratchet. which accomplished his purpose.
fhe Ratchet was thought 10 have been
procured about the premises.
During all this time the girl Of fourteen
occupied a seat at tabl: in the room ad =
joining the one in which the murder was
committed, with book in her hand. As
soon as they had committed the deed, the
murderars fed without ransacking the
house for money, when the girl blew u
horn, which alarmed the neighbors and
brought them 10 tie place,
Two men named Samuel Howder and
John Lowering were subsequently arrest
ed and identified 10y the girl us the mur-
derers. After they were committed to
Jail they confessed TO the pcrpetration of
the deed. They said money was their
object. Howder says it was not their in
tenton to murder, and that he is free
foom any completely in the murIer, but
that Lowering committed it. Both Low
ering and Howder have families, each hay-
ing a wife and twU children, the family of
the former residing in Lancaster county,
I though he has not been in that neighbor>
hood for some time, ,~kE

The current expenses OF the codnty last
year were SlO.827 73, while the aggregate
amount OF tax assessed was but S8,54l 80,
leaving deficiency Of S2,286 81 on the
LIST of January last. This being the state
of the county finances, the Commissioners
were compelled TO raise the county rates
from six mills to eight for the present
year, in order to meet the deficiency o.:
last year. If the current expenses of the
county for the present year do not exceed
the amount of last year, land to meet the
deficiency that has alfeady occurred } it
will take Sl3, ia OF to meet the demands
against the Treasury the present year.
Our readers will observe that the amount
assessed on seated property is 5000 So ;
and the most that can be realized from the
nnseated lands, will not exceed S3,4O0 ;
which will make the whole amount,of tax
assessed for 1861 about SO, 40 55 ; while
the expenses, if they remsin the same as
last year, will BE Sl3,l 07-which will
leave deficiency for the present year of
S7oJS52 In our estimates 'or the last and
pre-ent year, there is not one dollar apF
piled towards the completion of the new
Court House. 1t is hoped, however, that
tho current expenses Of the county for the
present year will not be SO high as last

Mode Of Dlnnufhcmrfns European Laces-
PeculiarIties Of the FabFfea

The most celebrated laces manufactured in
Europe are the Brussels, Mechliu, Valencien-
mes, Lisle, Alencon or blond, and the Alencon
Point. The Brussels is the most valuable,
and comprises two sorts, called the Brussels
ground and the Brussels wire ground. the
former has a hexagon mesh, formed by plait-
ing and twisting four threads of flax to a
perpendicular line of mesh, and the latter
being made of silk, of which the meshes are
parity straight and partly arched-but ia
both cases the pattern is worked separately,
and set on by the needle. Meehlin lace has
a bexagon mesh, formed of three lax threads
twisted or plated to a perpendicular line or
pillar; the pattern is worked in a net,
Valenciennes has an irregular bexa0on
formed Of two threads, partly twisted or
plated at the top of the mesh; the pattern il
worked in the net. Lisle has a diamond
mesh, formed of two threads, plated to a
pillar. Alencon,. called also blond, has a
hexsgon OF two threads, twisted, and is con-
sidered the most inferior of any made on the
cushion. The AlencOn point is formed of
two threads to a pillar, with octagon and
square meshes alternately.
Honiton lace 10 made by placing a per-
foTated pattern on a pillow, aud then so
twisting and Interviewing the thread by
means OF pins, bob6ins, and spindles, as TO
produce the required pattern. Simple
sprigs and borders were formerly the only
things produced, but a. the present time tho
most beautiful and delicate fabrics are bro.
duced complete by sewing the hand. made
patterns upon machine made net. Pillow or
thread lace is also made upon a cushion, but
it is distinguished from Honiton lace by
having both the pattern and the mesh made
by hand.
The beauty of bobbin-net lace depends on
the quality of the threads, and on the equal
size and hexagonial shape Of the meshes.
The nearer the warp threads are together,
The smaller are the meshes and the fner is
the lace. The number of warn threads In A
piece one yard wide may vary from 400 TO
loo. The hneness Of the lace, or as ID Is
called the gauge or points, depends on the
lumber OF Sits or openings in the combs,
and consequently the number OF bobbins in
an inch OF the double tier. Thus gauge nine
the comb The length Of work, counted
perpendicularly, which contains go holes or
meshes, is called a rack
