LosT HIS CLOTHES "A few nights ago, gen.
tleman whom we shall call Muggins, after
playing seven-up at Bessehis until after
ii o'clock, sought his domicil in state OF stag
gering salubrity. The cunning of men in that
happy condition is proverbial and Mugglns
had often deceived his wife, as he supposed, by
various excuses to account for his delay In
coming home. On this occasion he hit upon
the plan of disrobing in the dressing room,
slipping quietly into bed, and making his wife
believe that he had been 10 roost for at least an
hour. Full of this cunning idea, he entered
the dressing room very softly, and planting
himself before the window, which had been
left open he pulled Off his overcoat. He
would not take time TO hang his buds on the
hooks, but would just toss them in and let them
hang on the floor. 1t SO happened that he mis-
took the open window for the wardrobe, and
pitched his overcoat out. His undercoat, vest,
and pants, with a fine gold repeater in the fob
pocket, followed suit. Without discovering
his mistake, he slipped into bed, where Mrs.
Muggins was comfortably snooZing, and went
to sleep without letting her know that he had
returned. In the morning, when Muggins
went to dress himself, he could find nothing OF
his toggery but his boots. His wife believes that
some sly burglar entered the house by the open
window and carried off her husbands clothes.
Muggins has resolved not TO try TO fool his
wife again.-jS. Louis Democrat.

PURSUIT OF Two RoBBERs-OEB OF THEM
KILLS HIAsRLF.-Our readers will recoilect
that some weeks since negro man, in the
employ of Mr.. Dempsy Weaver, OF this city,
was met on the Murfreesboro pike by two men
(white) and robbed of his horse and all the
valuabIes on his person and that Mr.. weaver
offered a reward of five hundred dollars for
the capture of the thieves and the return OF
the stolen animal.
For some time the thieves baffled all pursuit ];
but it is hard for robbers of any kind to escape
Justice, and so large reward is sure TO put all
good detectives on his track. On Saturday
evening last they traced them up to the house
of Mrs Bell on the Murfreesboro pike, some
ten or twelve miles from the city, where, with
a posse of citizens, they surrounded the house
and ordered them to surrender. One OF them,
named William Wilson, refused to do SO, ana
tried to conceal himself byjumping into dry
we'll on the premises, some eight or ten ieet
deep and on being detected and ordered 10
come out he drew his own pistol and shot MN
self through the heart, and when the party
succeeded in getting him out, life was extinct
The other robber, named Andrew j. Ihomas,
quietly surrendered when first summoned 10 90
SO. He was brought to this city and lodged In
iail. The bride and saddle stolen with the
horse were recovered and identified, as was
the body of Wilson.
BY an enactment of the late Legislature,
horse stealing and highway robbery are mace
punishable by death, if the jury see nj ana
we hope the perpetrators of all offences OF the
character described above will be made to
swing Nashville Union, 9Th.

f PErBRsBuRa, FEBRUARY 10, iooo-
In view Of the present difficulty OF provi-
ding funds for church purposes, q plan mas
been adopted by the Rev. John MIXERS con-
gregation Second Presbyterian, in imita-
tion OF the method which proved so successful
in Scotland after the Free Church withdrew
from the national establishment. 1t Is that
every member be invited to contribute some
thing, according TO their respective means, at
short intervals-say by the week or month.
This Is very different In principle from the
custom Of taking mp collections on Sundays,
now practised In most or all the southern
churches and not designed In any manner 70
interfere with it. On occasions OF this kind,
Il q person has no money with him, he feels no
embarrassment In permitting the basket to
pass without dropping his mite and probably
not one-fourth Of the members OF the
city congregations, including men, women,
and children. make any deposit But,
according to the Scotch plan. every
family in the habit Of attending the
church 10 waited on, and invited TO sub
scribe for such amounts as they can spare
from their earnings. A tax levied In this way
Il 90 little oppressive that even children will
not feel 1t q burden TO give I'VE or ten cents
week. Others can a. conveniently give twenty
ungrudgingiy contribute dollar. These
small sums amount TO q good deal in the
course OF year, more indeed than congre-
CATION would be willing or able TO raise Oh q
sudden emergency. Suppose, Tor instance, a
small congregation Of two hundred members,
Of all classes, were each to pay into the urea
sury twenty -hve cents week. At the end Of
year twill amount to twenty-five or twenty
six hundred dollars; whereas, according to
the old mode Of raising money, the burden
would fall on q few individuals, and the COL
lection made only after wearisome efforts.
II 10 not designed by this plan to supersede
tho usual collections on Sundays. They are
necessary to meet the daily expenses Of the
chuych, while the proposed mode Is adapted
to extraordinary purposes, such a. paying
debts, repairing buildings and enclosures, and
adding 70 the general peatness and good order
Of the grounds. It 10 hoped that, II 1t should
be favorably regarded by any Of yonr readers,
1t may be put In practice in other places. II
everybody could be persuaded 70 act on the
principle Of saving the fragments. that nothing
DO lost, tho measure win succeed beyond the
most sanguine expectations.
While on church matters, II may be appro-
pirate 70 mention that there was an ecclesias.
teal convocation In this city last week, com.
posed Of anumber Of ministers Of the Episco.
pal Church from the surrounding country.
The services. IL y stated, wers not very
largely attended.
Business this week has opened with but little
activity. Cotton q dull, the price being only
forty cents. But few persons are bringing in
