Petty Thieviug

Seems to be practiced pretty extern
sively on market mornings, at the Sec
end Ward Market House. We fire..
quently hear farmers complaining OF
the loss of butter, chickens, &C., and
we are informed that there are persons
who make a regular practice of stealing
such articles whenever they see a wag-
on or stall surrounded by a number OF
persons, and the attention of the farmer
engaged so as to prevent him from no
ticiDg them. If they are caught at
their petty meanness they excuse them,
selves by saying they forgot the pay,
and in many instances claim that they
have paid, when not a cent has been
given for what they receive. Thefts OF
this kind are committed almost every
market day with impunity, and the
longer it is tolerated the more impu.
dent the class referred TO become. We
think it would be we'll for the police to
keep a look out in that direction and in
all probability business would be reviv-
ed in police circles, and jailor Faris fur,
nished with a larger number eff board
ers. We think it would be better to
feed them at the expense of the county
than to let them run at large and de-
pend upon the farmers who attend our
market y.

The Teachers Association

OF Wheeling met on Saturday last in
the City Council room, at 10 O'Clock A,
NJ. There was a full attendance of the
City Teachers, and we noticed several
citizens present who seemed to take an
interest in educational matters. Mr.. J,
c. Tuttle of Union Schools, read a very
interesting and Instructive essay on the
proper method Of teaching readings
which elected considerable discussion,
Miss Steele, of Union Schools, read an
essay on female education and wOman's
sphere in life. Her views as set forth
are sound and practical. Her treat
ment of the subject was excellent and
much to the point.
Alter disposing of some miscellaneous
business, having had Il very pleasant
session, the Association adjourned to
meet at the same time and place on the
second Saturday of February. The
meetings of the Association are open to
any one who takes an interest in educa-
tional matters, and the public are invi-
ted cordially to attend.

There wa. a Murder

Committed on the railroad bridge, at
the mouth of thu creek, on Friday
night last, by a man whose name We
did not learn, but the decease of his
victim will not be mourned to any very
great extent, as the city is infested with
numerous specimens of tho same kind.
The tragedy we refer to vas the killing
of q dog. He was tied up to the railing
of the bridge and four air holes put
through his carcass by means Of a re-
~volver. The report of the revolver at
traoted the attention of q gentleman
who was on the inside of the passenger
depot, and he called out to know what
was the matter. The dog slayer rs.
sponded in a very abrupt way, and told
him to embark for @ warm climate in
the regions below.

Police Court.

Police Court
There was n case before the Court
on Saturday morning. This is the latest
news. We consider that it is remarka-
bly, new. We have been searching for
items of this kind for several days, and
began to doubt the existence of Po-
lice Court in our midst, but the proceed
ings of Saturday morning prove con-
clusively that it is still in vogue and
ever ready ard prompt to discharge
the duties devolving upon it. The evil
passion OF Michael Wiener was arous-
ed on Friday evening last, and that
love that should be exhibited toward
the partner of his JOY and sorrow was
turned into wrath, when he began to
chastise the wife of his bosom in a man.
ner not at all compatible to her feelings
nor consistent with the laws of the city
government. Complaint was made
against him, and he was brought before
Judge Good and fined ten dollars and
costs. The fine was not paid when we
left the court room.

An Interesting Case.

We understand that a case involving
the validity of the amendment to the
Constitution of West Virginia depriving
rebels of citizenship is to be argued be-
fore the United States District Court at
its present session in this city. A party
who is disfranchised and deprived of
citizenship by the terms of that amend
ment has been sued by a citizen of the
State of Kentucky and, We are informed,
bases his defence upon the fact that he
is not q citizen of West Virginia and
cannot be sued in its District Court.
The case is an interesting N and will
probably be argued some time this week.

Robbery.

Robbery.
The eating saloon of Mr.. Frank Fail
loure, on Main street, has been visited
no less than three times within the last
week or SO by some person who seems
to have u natural inclination to pilfer
aud carry away anything and every
thing that comes within reach in the
way of edibles. A large box in which
he keeps oysters, pigs feet, butter, pro-
visions, and other things usually kept
in saloons, has been robbed of its con.
tents three different times. The thief
generally makes his descent when a
good supply is IN hand, and must be
well acquainted with the premises and
very skilful in the sleight of hand bust
ness; for, notwithstanding the precau.
ton and close watching of the proprie'
tor, be always succeeds in capturing
what he goes for, and escapes without
being detected. The last raid that wa'
made upon said box was by far the
heaviest, as there was a large quantity
of butter in it at the time, and we sup
pose the thief was satisfied with thi:
pull and concluded to wind up his bust
nees in that quarter, as he carried of
the paddock that was placed upon the
box to secure it against his kind, and
has not been back, to the knowledge Of
Mr.. Falloure, since. Heretofore the
thief has been unlocking the box, and
after helping himself to whatever was
in it, would lock it up again. We are
informed that the same kind of depre.
dations have been committed two Oh
three times at the saloon kept by the
same gentleman on Monroe street. The
other night some chickens and butter
were taken from this place by some un'
scrupulous vagabond, who gained al
entrance by opening the back door
Mr.. Falloure thinks that his %ungenerou'
friend has been living at his expense
long enough, and we would not be sur
prised to hear of the filthy carcass of &
thief being found some morning before
long, in an inanimate state, If furthel
attempts are made to rob his premises

Theft,
A largo blanket was stolen from a
wagon that was standing in front of
Harry & Stewards store on Market ST.,
Saturday evening. Articles ofthis kind
are in demand such cold weather as we
arc now having, and there are a great
many who act on the theory that the
cheapest way to procure them is the
best, even if they do run a risk of being
arrested for stealing. They have no
fear of the law before their eyes, and
will not hesitate to steal whenever an
opportunity is presented.

A gentleman, stranger in the city, re-

as he was about to step into the door of
the passenger depot of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad. The man slipped
and fell, striking his face on the iron
door sill, bruising and disfguriug it a
great deal. We were told that the

A Escape

From drowning was made by a young
man named Noble, while skating on
Wheeling creek last Saturday. 1t APP
pears that the ice near the mouth of the
creek was much thinner than that above
the bridge and not of sufficient strength
to admitof skating upon it. The young
man not being aware of this, ventured
on it and went through, and would
have found o watory grave, had it not
been for the timely aid of some COM
rades who succeeded in getting him out.
