AFrIANcED.-The San Francisco Alta
has the following: "The Abend Post of
Friday has an advertisement which SAYS:
Ailianced- Caroline Phuegar of Mar
barch, and ]. 0. Meussdorfer of San
Francisco" That is the way everybody
does in Germany upon making matri-
monial engagement. A promise to mar
ry there is serious matter; and, when
once made, there is no thought of break
ing it, so there is no motive for conceal
ing it. Usually a long period elapses
between the engagement and the we'd
ding, and if the betrothal were secret.
the betrothed could not venture to enjoy
the company of each other so much as
they would after announcing to every
body that they intended to marry. The
custom seems to be good one; but
would it suit American society? Some of
the Germans among us seem disposed to
introduce it here, so far as they are con-
cerned.

DoN'r KEEP THE Coach WAITING

DoN'r KEEP THE Coach WAITING
Women are queer creatures, and their
oueerness is exhibited in travelling very
forcibly. One womanmust have trunk,
band box, a carpet bag and bundle,
if she is going to be gone +" out Of town
two days.-The budget and bundles are
expected as matter of course, by hack
men, and they don't grumble about them.
But did you ever know woman ready
when the coach calls to carry her to the
depot Yes Did you ever know ten
who were ready mo As a general
thing the coach has to wait from three to
six minutes for woman to get ready,
to put on her bonnet, her rubbers, cloak,
scarf, to look (for the twentieth time
within an hour in the glass, to give or
ders, to shake hands, and kiss farewells,
and to run back three times to get some
thing. Such delays are mighty pleasant
for those who sit shivering, in the coach.
How quickly the bushes would rise to
the cheeks of one of those behind-hand-
women, if she could hear the curses and
remarks of the waiting passengers. We
say to our readers, one and all, ladies and
gentlemen, if you have any gentility CIV
ility and good breeding, don't keep the
coach waiting.

LAST MILK FROM THE UDDER.-Dr.
Anderson says he has found, by practical
analysis, in one instance, that the last
cut of milk drawn from the cows udder
contained sixteen times as much cream
as the first one. This separation of cream
from milk takes place, in part, in the
udder of the COW, particularly if the
COW is suffered to stand at rest for some
time previous 10 milking. If there are
people who doubt that there is differ
ence in the richness of milk first drawn
from COWS and that of the last drawn,
their doubts will be speedily removed by
milking half dozen COWS and setting
the first half drawn from each COW sepa-
rate from the latter half.

THINNING APPLEs.-At the present
season orchardists who expect to be sue
cessful, should commence their attention
to thinning the fruit. A common prac-
tice is to let all grow together on the
tree, including knurly, scabby, half
grown, curculio-stung, &c. These being
mixed up with good fair specimens,
crowd them, and lessen their size and
beauty, as well as flavor. Take them in
time, thin out all the bad ones, and sew
eral decided advantages will result. 1t
is much easier to pick these poor apples
now, and cast them to the ground with
out basketing, than to handpick them
and convey them carefully down to the
ground with the general crop. The diff
ference in the labor will be as one to four
or five. This subject is very little APP
preciated; yet when looked at deliber-
ately it will be seen that the farmer
might as well let the weeds grow with
his corn, to be assorted from it at har-
vesting, as to allow worthless fruit, to oc-
cupy through the whole season the place
of that which is good Country Gentle

Boy Escapes from the indians.

\ pondent Of the Milwaukee
Sentinel, writing from Kilbourn City.
May l4th, says
Chauncev Case, boy 16 years old,
made his escape from the Indians to-
day and came into this place.
He related his story in broken Eng
iish and Indian signs. 1t seemed so
incredible that number of citizens,
in order to satisfy themselves. accom-.
panied the boy to the Indian encamp-
ment, on Hurlburt Creek, where the
party of Indians, about a dozen in
number, have been encamped for sew
eral days for the purpose of fishing.
The boy, taking advantage oc the
absence of the men, who are gone to
Big Spring on a fishing excursion. was
not afraid to return to the camp with
the citizens, as the squaws, he said.
We're great babies" The squaws.

ChaunCey Case Is more than ordina

most of the time in the unsettled part
Of Wisconsin. At the time of the

From the Galena Gazette Of the 18th inst. /,
a r en1aIe Horse Thief.

Last Tuesday woman went TO the
livery stable Of Samuel TAYLOR, IN
Freeport, and hired horse and bug
gy Ito ride about town for a short
time as she said. She drove direct
Iy to Apple River, and put up for the
night at the Apple River Hotel
The next morning she offered the
horse and buggy for sale to Mr.. Bun
dy, the landlord The rig was worth
about $500, but she offered it for a
sum much less. This circumstance 9
led lIr. B. to think that the rig was
not honestly obtained When he ex-
pressed some doubts about the matter
the woman told him that 1t was a
present from her father, who lived at
Neenah, Wis. She also stated that
she had brother living at Dubuque
and requested Mr.. B. to pay her SIO0
down, and hold the remainder till he
should accompany her TO that place
and satisfy himself Of her honesty
On these terms Mr. Buudv made the
trade, and started this morning. in
company with the woman, for Du-
buque.
Mr.. Taylor, the owner of the horse
and buggy, came to Warren this NOR
ming on the freight train, in pursuit of
the property. On arriving at War
rem, he learned that a woman passed
through that place, on Tuesday, with
a horse and buggy, which answered to
the description of his. When the
freight train arrived al Apple River
Station. Mr. Beals, the conductor,
who had heard Mr.. TayIor's story.
learned the facts relative to Mr.. Bun
dy's purchase. and telegra phed the
same to Mr.. Taylor, at Warren. Mr..
B. also telegraphed to Officer Buck
ley. at Duuleith, to arrest the woman.
The woman obtained the 800 with
the intention, of course, of giving Mr.
Bundv the slip as soon as they should
arrive in Dubuque. These are all the
facts We have been able to learn thus
far.-DaIy Gazette Of the I4tb.
LATER-W have received a dis,
patch from Dubuque, just before go
ipg to press, stating that the woman
was arrested there to-day, and would
be taken TO Freeport on the train this
evening.

An innocent Man Suffers Death

In the ItHles Of yesterday morning
there appeared an account of the
hanging Of a supposed horse thief by
a mob, or self-styled Vigilance Com
mittee, between Janesyille and Wa
verify. Fuller particulars have since
transp!red n regard to the affair,
which places it IN an entirely differ
ent light, and reveals the horrible fact
that an innocent man has suffered
death at the hands of the mob.
1t seems that two young men, par,
TALLY intoxicated, took the horses
and rode them down to Cedar Falls
and, after they got there, turned them
loose
McR0berts was arrested IN James
vile, as the supposed thief, and hung,
IN the manner we have already relat-
ed. When the farmer got home he
found his animals there. 1t is also
stated that McRoberts was hung By
the mob at 10 o'clock in the evening,
and lett hanging until y o'clock the
next day.
Warrants are now out for the ar
rest of the ringleaders and it is TO
be hoped that all parties concerned
in this infamous outrage viii be
brought to Justice. We understand
that one of the chief leaders was the
deputy sheriff of the county. 1t Is
certainly sickening affair, as no
doubt remains that an innocent man
has been hung, Such an example of
mob violence should not be suffered to
