POCKET PICKED.-A gentleman from
New Kent county had stolen from him
$50 at Odd Fellows Hall on last Friday
night. His pocket was cut in such dex-
tcrous manner, and the money extracted,
that he did not discover the theft for some
time after it had been committed. The
proper authorities were promptly advised
Of the robbery, and every effort made to
detect the thief, but without success. Per-
sons visiting places of amusement should
be extremely cautious with their green
backs, or else they will be relieved Of them,
for our city is again infested with pick
pockets, which are almost as bad at this
time as an Egyptian plague.

MERIT BEGETs CoSFTDESCg.-This accounts for

parade of long stories asks the public to see his

sured by their real merit, the reign OF humbug
will be over, and No. 1911 Main street be crowded
with customers.

too early for festive purposes, but never
theless n very good snow. The weather
changed, however, and rain coming on
converted the snow into slush, very dis
agreeable to all persons and entirely un-
suited to any practical use that We know
of. Let Us hope that, for the pleasure OF
the young, we may have yet very light
feathery white carpet for the earth about
the time they hail with so much delight.
But in thinking of our joys, let us not
forget that there are sorrows almost every
where in our midst, and let US remember
that though we are less able than ever to
relieve suffering, the cry of want and dis
tress is greater than ever before in our land.
We are not of those, however, who would
enjoin everlasting sadness and misery be-
cause we are poor, and because there is
destitution and suffering. We would en-
join economy and that charity which di-
videth the loaf. But let us be cheerful
even in that, and let us keep up our hearts
and heads, and show that wealth is not
essential to a peaceful conscience, and
power not indispensable to a graceful re-
signation to the will Of Providence
