Robbed.

Robbed. ~t
r An Irish emigrant with his wife and
Child, en- route for this city, from New
York, stopped at Steubenville q few
days ago and was robbed of seven and
a half sovsreigns, equal to $50 in cur
rency. The Steubenville Herald calls II
a mysterious disappearance of sever
and half sovereigns." We think the
emigrant will consider that very Pc
lite term for robbery.

High Heeted Sno<s.
The doctors are down on high heeled
shoes. Among other lamentable results,
as alleged, is that in women it lessons
the size of the calf and destroys the
conformity of the leg generally. This
is frightful, indeed. 1t is to be hoped
that the ladies will take warning and
ont off their high heels without delay.
