nurrIars Again at work.

A residence on Church street was entered
Yesterday morning between the hours of
three and fouI by burglars. They entered
through a side window by cutting the
blind and raising the window. After they
had gained an entrance they proceeded to
search the house, commencing first in
room where an old gentleman was sleeping
and took his trunk into another room, after
having administered chloroform, and over
hauled every thing in it. They took about
s27 and some letters out of the trunk. They
then renewed their search for valuables.
The next room they visited was occupied
by young man who was very soundly
sleeping. They administered chloroform
in this room also, and took out of the
young mans pants about $225. They
then left the house through back door.
Mr.. John NJ. Bass residence on the same
street was also entered probably by the sam'
thieves. They did not succeed in getting
any thing a! this place, as all the doors
were strongly barred.
The papers taken out of the cid gentle
mans trunk at the other house wer
found in Mr.. Bass stable yard.
A burglar was run out of the STAGE
House about one o'clock yesterday mornin
by the night clerk. He entered the hous
, by climbing over the back sheds. Nothin
: was missed out of the house, because Ii
robber had been driven away before he ha
time to steal anything.

APracticaI Objection

The Hon. II. H. Harrison was candl-
date for Pablo Printer, the election OF
which officer was made by the Legislature
yesterday. 4 member of the House, who
thought well Of Judge Harrison in all 9TH
er respects, would no! vote for him be-
cause Judge H. was not a printer. He
said if the Judge was elected he could not
do the work, because he knew nothing
about it. Thinking thus, the practical
minded man cast his vote for Capt. Girls
ham, and has since rested quite easy in the
consciousness of having given a practical
turn TO patriotic duty.

Eli and Cage Holmes were arrested Sun
dav about sixteen miles from towR, by
Detectives Funston and Starkey. They
are charged with stealing gold watch,
shot gun and horse, from some person IN
Robertson county, near Springfield. They
were brought here and lodged in Jail last
Sunday night. The detectives were fired
at several times by them, and it was no!
until posse Of citizens were summoned,
that the arrest was made. They are said to
be desperate characters. Their uncle

near Springfield, and one of them re-
marked while he was in Jail that he had
shot three men. The one who shot at Mr.
Funston said that he was the only man
that he ever missed. They were taken tc
