MApE-Ur PEoPLE.-What they are made
OF il is hard to tell. When one speaks to
q person of this class he may say" How
much Of this moving mass is fellow
mortal?" How much is dust made by
Nature into flesh, and blood, and bones ;
and how many substances, animal, vegeta-
bic, and mineral, lie conce""l under this
fair exterior which la, not passed
through the process of mastication and
digestion, and are not likely to be so con-
verted into humanity, but are hung within
the outer walls Of the fabric, stuck in cor
ners and hollow places, tackled, plastcred,
or stuffed here and there, to give SYM
metry, rotundity, enlargement, length,
breadth, height, depth, thickness, to the
parts, and so make up an imposing and at
tractive whole! II all this regalia were
laid aside, if this form Of man or woman
were to appear within the attenuated
limits Of those tight dresses in which some
of the grandfathers and grandmothers of
the olden time are painted on our walls,
how large door would be required to re-
ceive it? How many of my neighbors,
friends, and acquaintances, male and fe-
male, could be comfortably accommodated

The old question, "Of what are you
made ?" may now be answered variously.
GLOW long does it take you to make your
SELF" is a leading inquiry. "What is
your gross and what is your nett weight /"
is also very pertinent.
The progress of invention develops new
articles to expand the forms of men and
women and give symmetry to their pro-
portions. We are led to doubt the reality
of that civilization about which We boast
10 much when we find that under its in
fuence physical humanity constantly
withcrs and shrinks into such proportions

The Public Guard, under the charge OF
their orderly sergeant, f. S. Gay, Jr.,
marched yesterday to the Capitol Square,

FIEypIsu OrTRAGE.-Yesterday morning
the eastern portion of our city was thrown
into great excitement by the announce
ment that on the previous day young
woman named Rebecca Burkett had been
seized on the Hempfeld railroad and out
ragged by a number of men. The police
were soon on the alert, and before 10
o'clock eight men had been arrested and
placed in the lookup.
Yesterday afternoon the case was given
q hearing in the police court. From the
evidence we heard, we pronounce the affair
one of the most brutal and hellish out
RACES ever perpetrated in the country.
The Young woman was met in the "deep
cut" on the Hempfield railroad three miles
from this city, about 10 o'clock on Sunday
morning, by ten or eleven fcnds from this
city. One of the fellows held in his hand
a knife, swearing he would kill her il she
uttered word or refused to submit TO their
proposals. About ] o'clock in the after
noon the woman made her way to the house
of a ncighbor, where she made her condi-
ton known, and was kindly cared for. She
was almost destitute of clothing, and her
face, neck, and hands were badly bruised
and scratched. Drs. Cracaft and Storer,
of Triadelphia, were called to see her in
the evening, and found her in precarious
condition, from injury and great nervous
excitement.
Five of the heartless villains were iden-
tilted by the Young woman, viz: Law
renee Cady, Charles Haymaker, Patsy Ba-
nan, Jacob. Watson, and Edward Myers.
The Judge committed the fellows to Jail to
await n further hearing before the Circuit
Court. His Honor reminded the prisoners
that rape was an offence punishable with
not less than ten nor more than twenty
years Imprisonment in the penitentiary,
and that under no conditions would he
release them on bail.
We hope the other five or six things who
were engaged in this outrage will be ap-
pretended and speedily brought to justice.

MURDER WILL OrT-A MYSTERY CLEARED
UP.-Over thirty years ago there was con-
siderable excitement in Cecil county, Nd,
on account of the sudden disappearance of
a widow lady named Patty Polk, who re-
sided about four miles from Elkton. She
was last seen going into thickct near her
house where two men had Just passed. All
search for her was fruitlcss. After rea-
sonablc time had elapsed, letters of admin
istration on her effects were issued, and III
settling up the estate the administrator
was unable to find note drawn by one OF
the men who had been seen to 60 into the
thickct. The note was known TO have been
in her possession Il short time before her
disappcarance. This aroused the suspi-
cions of some of the people, and the two
men were arrested; but nothing could be
proved against them, and they were dis
charged.
A number of years ago one Of the sus-
pectcd parties died, and last week it is re-
ported that the other, being very Ill, sent
for a minister, to whom he made free
confession. According to popular rumor,
the confession was to the effect that he,
with the other party, sent to Mrs. Polk to
meet tDcul III IL CERTAIN Ila'S, "hSi' 'h'
would pay the money on the notes, and
they then failed to meet her. That they
saw her on her way home, and knowing
that she would pass through the thicket,
they went into il and laid in ambush, and
as soon as she appeared one knocked her
on the head with stick of wood, killing
her. That they then placed her body In
the midst of wood pile, where they in
tended to let it remain but it becoming
noxious, they went to the pile with box
to remove the body, and found that the dog
of the deceased had taken his place to
watch over the corpse, and they were COM
PEELED to kill him before they could get
the body and that after succeeding, they
carried it in the box to where the Phila-
delphia, Wilmington, and Baltimore rail-
road was being built, and placed it in the
cmbankment.
It is also stated that as soon as the man
had made this disclosure he commenced to
improve, and that he is now in fair way
