On Monday morning last, two fine
looking and well dressed gentlemen
were seen promenading up and down
the Centre Wheeling market, promiscu-
ously examining the articles exposed
for sale, They eventually came up to
q German woman who was about to
make some purchases from a vender,
and one of them inserted his hand into
her pocket and succeeded in getting her
portmonnaie out. The German woman
felt something in her pocket and caught
the individual by the collar and charg-
ed him with stealing her purse. He de-
MED it, and Indignantly threatened to
have her arrested if she did not leave
him 60. She pointed to one Of the stalls
under which the purse was laying, and
charged him with throwing it there.
There being no one on the ground to
arrest him, he finally got away, and
said he was going to get police officer
to arrest the woman for charging him
falsely, but neither of the two pick
pockets have been seen since. Market
people should keep look out for these
fellows.

1t is very evident that Ben. Butler
has not been IN this locality, or we
would not have to record the fact that
Miss Mollie Spoon was left to the tender
mercies of the philistines. But Mollie
is no silver or wooden spoon, but is OF
the "social evil" kind, who carry their
trunks in their pockets, roost anywhere
and feed upon the vapors of the atmos,
phere. Being tired of this promiscuous
way of subsistence, Mollie, at the ear
nest solicitations of the officers of the
law, concluded she would make
change, and in this very modest mood
we find her before the Police Court
hearing brief history of her practices
for which she was charged ten dollars
Mollie was sent to Jail in default of pay

On Tuesday evening officers sereg-
gins and Price arrested man named
John Peirs for robbing James Gray OF
between eighty and ninety dollars, in
money. We were unable to Obtain any
of the particulars how the robbery was
effected, but presume it must have been
done while Mr.. Gray was asleep OF
otherwise he could not have well got
the advantage Of him. Some fifty-four
dollars of the stolen money was recov'
cred on the person of John Peirs, which
is claimed by Mr.. Gray. The prisoner
was arraigned before Squire Johnston
yesterday afternoon. who committed
him to Jail for the May term of the Cir
cult Court.

Spring.
Yesterday morning was regular
spring morning, aud if it were not for
the remnants of the late snow storm ly-
ing around loose in the shape of ice and
snow, we would hardly believe that
only one week ago the thermometer was
below zero. Those who seem to be
weather-wise say that this is only a
weather breeder" and that by st. Pat
rick's Day, and up to the 22d, we may
look out for snow, rain, hail, fog, wird
and mud. If so, so be it, and as it all
goes in lifetime, we must make the
best Of it with no complaint.
