AUHURN, GEAUaA Co., o., Jan. 1s.
EDrToRs LRApER "A successful attemr.
wss made upon Wednesday evening last to
force an entrance into a store owned and
occupied by John Mayhem, at this place
The lock on the main entrance 10 the store
was bored completely around, freed from
the door, and lay upon the Aoor inside, the
door being partly open. The proprietor has
as yet been unable to discover any goods
missing from the store, and from the fact
that not even the money was removed from
the drawer, is Of the opinion that just at
that period they must have received a
fright, suPposing they had been discovered
By persons inside. No one was inside the
door at the time-anda happy circumstance
It was for the proprietor that they left at the
time they did, else he would probably have
had occasion to Feplsnish his stock of
goods. He,.,hoWeVer, thinks different, and
is Of the opinion if the goods had been taken
that the rsscals would now be boarding free
at one of our public institutions, as he Is
AAAAy SoANAACoA bAhb Ono Vi buen ~ ledhb
is person reporting himself to be q resi-
dent Of your pleasant city.
The same store was broken into about
year since and robbed of a small amount
the rGscalS at that time desiring money on
ly. Several years since, it was forced open
and robbed of considerable amount. The
most Of the goods, however, were recovered
and the offenders paid the penalty to the
State by the sweat Of their brows for the
pleasure they derived from the operation;
one Of them dying while in prison.
The war feeling in this region is as strong
as ever. A gNodly number appear to be
but indifsrentlv satisfied with the course
the present Administration are taking, and
are for conducting the war in more liberty
loving manner. All, however, would stand
by the President and Constitution at the
risk of their lives If need be, and are for
the Union ad IN fHitRu."
The last of our noble volunteers who have
been home to spend the holidays, left this
for camp at Romney, Va.

DIPTHERIA We notice this insdious
disease is becoming qni;e prevalent in some
parts of the county. II is a malady that
if not arrested at It's very outset is almost
certain to prove fatal. AS soon as the
first symptoms appear physician should
be Instantly summoned. Meantime, until
the doctor arrives temporary relief can be
afforded by gargliug the throat every ten
minutes with strong deeOetiOn Of common
salt and water. Make it as strong as the
patient can endure it without stranglng,
say teaspoonfu! salt to two tablespoonsfu
Of water, In many Instances this simple
remedy has been known to entirely check
the disease without the aid of any further
prescription. -Seisntife Ameriean.
