there is no room fer loafers anywhere in this
working world. They are not wanted in the
busy Workshop, nor the editors sanctum they
are nuisance IN country store, splitting about
the stove, and at the postofIice and street corn
ers are in everybOdy's way. They are forever
out of Place-except in the Olmshouse or Jail.
dead weight upon society, they are hindrance
and bore. They form no part of natures plan :
it abhors them as it does vacuum. While all
the world around Lhcm is going forward, they
are standing still, or gliding impsrcsptIbly back

grows rusty. 1t is only use which keeps oer
faculties bright, aud the idle man gets dali, stu.

thinkers, infdels and atheists, and of late
their discussions, which take place upon the
Sabbath, have been so outrageous to decency
and Good morals, that the Common Council
denied them the further use of their room.
and they have sought refuge in another place.
At their last meeting one Of their leaders, DR..
BOYD used very blasphemous language in ref
ere acc to the vote of the Common Council for
refusing to allow the society the use of their
hall. An affidavit has been sworn to charr
ing Boyd with having made use of blaspbe-
nous language and a warrant was issued for
his apprehension, unde the old law of MARYLAND
which is still in force in this district. The
hrst offence is punishable by boring through
the tongue, and fine of twenty pounds; ster-
ling; for the second, burning the letter "B"
on the forehead; and for the third, death
without benefit of the clergy. 1t will be seen
BY this that the laws were severe upon the

Another and The fourth atteftps has Ira,

| Another and the fourth attempt has beah
| made to rob the Windham County Bank at
| Brooklyn, Conn. The vault is of heavy granite.
and the first door Is recessed in some six ncbes
Into this place the robbers placed three ,orn.
jack-screws, and succeeded in movino +ho
granite for SIX feet on either side. sufficient 70
a'io" ootn doors to swing open past their fast
eh'ngS. They then exerted their skill upon the
,nsiue eel chest The shaft of the lock was
uriVeh IN about half an ZACH, but resisted fur
,ner efforts. Then they began stripping the
uoor' ana succeeded in getting off the heavy
pafs, twisting the iron completely asunder.-
Ihey evidently found this to be too much for
them, aud next succeeded in getting rivet
hole in the upper corner of the door. Into this
| they poured powder and tried 10 ignite it with
a fuse piece of which was found in the 70 oms.
The chest had been so tempered with by the
rascals that it could not be opened, and the
| builder was sent for. On his arrival the chest
was cut open and every thing found all isht. The
bank is in an isolated position, and the rogues
had every chance to make all the noise thew
liked. A trunk containing $4,000, behind the
books on the Top Of the chest was undisturbed.
The tools left behind consisted of three Jack
screws, wedges from two inches up to foot in
length, iointed bars with claws and cutters,
punches, Gu tiers shaped like a sardine- opener.
and many curiously shaped instruments, drills
and chises.
The recent riot at Goldsboro N c., grew out
of frequent insults to colored females by SOL
diers of the garrison. A negro was shockipgly
beaten by soldiers while he was returning from
church in company with his WIFE, Upon this
fact becoming known to the colored communi-
ty, on Friday night, they gathered in large
crowds to retaliate.l Some half dozen SOL
diers returning to camp were met by a
crowd of blacks, treble their number, and an
assault was at once made upon them, resulting
in the defeat and rout of the soldiers, after a
severe handling, one of them barely escaping
with his life This, however, did not end the
hostilities. All day Saturday the negroes con-
tinued to give vent to feelings of animosity in
angrily uttered threats and muttered curses,
aud by night the streets were filled by an At
rican mob, armed with revolvers, bludgeons
and clubs. The scenes in the streets resembled
a miniature pandemomum. About clock
the citizens were startled by reports of pistols
and guns in one portion of the town, towards
which there was a general rush of the negroes
A scene of fearful excitement ensued The
soldiers attacked the negroes with clubs, but
the negroes used pistols SO freely that the SOL
diers returned to their quarters, and-then, to
the number of twenty-five or thirty, COM
menced firing into the mob Unfortunately
The great darkness of the night prevented
many fatalities, though several negroes were,
wounded and one was killed. One soldier was
also killed. Finally the mob retired and the
soldiers sought shelter in their quarters
