A NOVEL INSURANCE CoMPANY-Dete
tives George d. Callahan, Joshua Taggart
and Edward G.. Carlin and Thomas b. Davis,
all experienced police officers, have formed
an association in Philadelphia TO be known
as the "PrOtective Police Insurance" A
number Of the leading merchants of that
city have given the association liberty to
refer to them for their ability and integrity,
and it is proposed to commence the business
at once, ample means being now on deposit
for that purpose. Competent Waterman will
be appointed, and they will assume charge
of a store from the time II is closed until il
is opened in the morning. A policy OF in
surance will issue TO all who place their pro-
perty under the care of the association, and
in the event OF robbery, absolute indem,
nifty will be made. This 10 certainly novel
institution, and will doubtless pay as good
dividends as a fire insurance company.

ORIGIN OF WlNE-The night after Noah
had planted vineyard Satan appeared in
the garden and said:
"Dear plants, will cause you to -four
ish and become the delight and marvel of
men. In return, you shall be my most
ohedient slave at all time" The compact
was formed.
Thereupon Satan slew n sheep, q lion
and hog. He caught their blood in human
skull, where reason once presided, and
poured il upon the tender vines. Therefore
we perceiye that when man uses wine tenn
nerately he remains harmless like the gentle
lamb. If he partakes too freely oithe simu-
lating beverage, il excites in his bosom the
fierce passions OF the king OF the forest; and
if his Indulgence verges upon porcine excess,
man, made after the image of God, loses
reason and wallows III heastial degradation
like the filthy hog in his miTe.

OF body of citizens, wearing boards that

OF BARRIERS, razor In hand. 1t transpired that
these long boards made vow, when the

in 1862, that a razor should never touch their
faces until they could be shaved in the cap.

cuation by the Turkish troopa they were

The BLACK DEATH IN Ireland Further
particulars have been received Of the new
aud terribly fatal disease which exists in
Ireland, and as yet chiefly in Dublin. The
general features of the preliminary stage are
bilious vomiting and sometimes purging,
and usually headache of unparalleled in.
lensity, with incoherency. Then comes the
purple eruption, accompanied, in most cases,
by great debility, and followed by collapse
and death. The duration OF the illness is
OF three-iold variety. In the first, where the
period is reckoned on hours, one case was
fatal in four hours from the occurrence Of
the first symptoms; buttheaveragei s eighteen
hours. The second variety includes from
three to six days, from the first indications
of indisposition TO the fatal issue. The third
variety, in which alone any recOveries have
taken place, embrace period extending To
many days and weeks.

Under the palace is the depository OF the
crown Jewels and other valuables Judging
from the vast collection one would think the
former rulers OF Saxony spent most of their
time and money in ornaments. II is proba-
bly, an exposure OF the most dazzling magni-
fceuce in Europe. There are in all eight
rooms, each having an equal interest. We
will, however, take the fourth and eighth
rooms, as the articles here have done service.
The fourth room contains gold and silver
plate only, a part OF which was used at
Frankfort on the occasion of the coronation
of the Emperors At the time OF these coro-
nations, Kings and Princes waited on the
guests at the table; in fact, it was considered
quite an honor IN those days to be head
waiter. The Elector OF Saxony was fortu.
nate enough to be elected TO that important
position, and he, Of course, for the honor
conferred on him, furnished the dinner set.
EIGHTH ROOM
Surpasses all others value and splendor.
1t is the vault of the crown Jewels; contains
also, a master piece called the Court of the
Great Mogul, numbering 1888 figures of pure
gold, all eHameled and arranged in variety
of characters. 1t employed eight years in
its completion, and cost $50, 100.

articles among the collection. The largest

RURAL THIEvING.-Thieving seems to
be principally confined to the country at
the present time. Our exchanges are filled
with accounts of burglary and robbery in
country places. We suppose thieves find
it much more convenient to travel among
quiet and peaceable citizens, where there
are no police to ''spot" them, than to run
the hazard of a crowded city, For some
time our own city has been remarkably
free from their nocturnal visitations, and it
is probably from this reason. The only
advice we can give our country friends
is to keep their houses and stables well se-
cured and first class dog about the prem
ises. We heard an expert burglar once re-
mark that the only thing he feared was
light and dogs. sEs HEft

SERVED THEM R1GHT.-We learn that an
evening or two since as a young man, in
company with lady, was taking walk
in the vicinity of the Piqua shops, they
were accosted by a couple of roughs, who
proceeded to insult the lady in the grossest
manner. The young man, being one of
the plucSy kind, resented the insult and
thrashed them both-hitting one of them
with stone and iDjuring him pretty Sc
yerely. They will not be likely to repeat
the experiment. --- Cd i.
