BURGLARY Is VIRGINIA.-S,

BURGLARY IL yIRGISIA.-Sav. yester.
days Enterprise:
Night before las. a burglar entered
the residence of Johnny Pidge. on G
street, back of ST. Psui's Church, and
robbed a bUreau drawer of SIS in coin
The burglar effected his entrance by a
window left open 10 admit fresh air.
He came 10 the house FIRST about l l or
IL O'Clock, when only Mrs. Pidge aud
her sister were az home, and from their
bed they saw him crawl through the
windos aad go to the bnresu. At that
time there was no. hing Of value in the
drawer but a gold chain, and that was
oot taken. The ladies told MIR. Pidge
of the visit Of the burglar upon his ar
rival, but seeing the window filed with
dowe--po,s, which had not been dis
turbed, he laughed at them and told
them they must have been dreaming.
&c placed his money in the drawer and
retired. In the morning the fiower-pots
were gone from the window and the S55
from the drawer, but still the gold chain
was not disturbed. It is supposed that
the thief replaced the fower-pots after
his FIRST visit TO the room, and that be
probably stood behind them and saw
Mr.. Pidge put the money in the drawer.
He is certainly a bold rascal, and We
hope that his audacisy may yet lead him
into trap that will bold him.

Two Piu;e Indians hsd regular
stand-up Est fght on South stree,
yesterday, not far from the Virginia
House. A fight among themselves is
something very rarely seen, but this
pair of belligerents, one of whom per-
haps represented Prussia and toe other
France, fought most savsgely, and II
net strictly in accordance with the rules
of the z. r., did lot grossly violate
them. France" kept sending in upon
F." Prussia's" mug rapid aud singing
licks, while PRUSSIA" aimed altogether
at his antagonists chest. and seemed
for long time TO be getting decidedly
the worst Of the battle, as bis face was
in a gore of blood, but at last he
knocked the wind out Of his antagonist
and victory declared in his favor. Men
of some pugilis,ic experience who saw
the set-;o we're astoaished to see the
amount Of punishment both fellows en-
dured.

EuasxA IrRxs.-From the Eureka
Septioel We gather the following items
from that prosperous mining settle
uent:
On the night of the 18th the saloon
Of Frost L Co. was broken into between
IL o'clock and daylight. About SIS
was taken out of the drawer aud no
whisky taken, from which fact they ar
que that the robbery was done BY q
temperance party. This is the first
burglary Eureka can record, and it 10
thought 10 be one of the results of the
late great influx from the little districts
east Of US. Officer Dennis is in active
search of temperance man, but up to
the time of going to press has not been
successful.
On FRIDAY a, noon there arrived from
Elko building 20x60, with all its oc-
cupants. Carpenters were employed at
once, and at shutdown the whole party
were comfortably housed therein. A,
D. m the violin was sounded and
dozen artists were at once chasing the
feeting hours with flying feet. Msscle
understood that muscle predominates.
We have the promise that Eureka
shall be in communication by telegraph
With the outside world by the 18th Of
August. 1t will De grea; convenience
to business men and will add much to
the value Of our paper by giving MS an
opportunity TO get the la,es. news mp
to the hour of going 10 press.
One hundred houses could have been
rented in this place within the last
week, at prices that would be enormous
in any other place. The great want OF
our population is houses. The hotels
are al full, lodging houses engaged for |
weeks ahead, corrais spread with blan.
keis, stores and saloons and workshops |
are used for lodging places, and the
number OF arrivals daily increasing. |
We want houses to cover the heads OF
he people already here and those az
irving.

This new device Of the governmen'
has got into place so qaietly that ths
public have had but smAil opportunity
- aequaint themselves with its nature
and xorkings. Te a-s glad that one
ofOur contemporaries has taken the pains
10 explain it TO US. The Washington
Chronicle of July IL. says:
The public, most intimately interested in
the administration of the Government, begin
10 look into this new Department. and to in
auire into the features of It's construction and
the scope Of its operations. The establish
iaent of it has wroush: such a radical inno-
vation upon the iong-established usage of the
Government as to subject it to severe criti-
cism. We desire only to speak Of the second
office in the new Department In this article.
The Office Of Solicitor General, although new,
has been created to carry on and supervise
the Law affairs of the Government. In fact,
this officer is clothed with the exclusive man
agement and direction Of the suits for and
against the Government. Neither Depart
nent can employ counsel or advise with
counsel not employed or designated by him
70 give personal attention to the important
suits wherein the Government is interested,
which will often take him to other points
than Washington. These duties require that
he should be veil, ifno: thoroughly, acquaint-
ed With the leading men of the profession
throughout the country, East and West, and
be very familiar with the laws of the United
States and the practice of the United States
courts. Besides, he should be a practitioner
of large experience, well and fAmiliarly ac-
auainted with the conduct of cases in the
courts at risi pTiMs. These considerations
make it necessary that he should be taken
from the lawyers an 0eflre practice. The
Government can Eoe afford to wait to educate |
him in these things. They want his imme- |
date and active services. TIE litigation Of
the Gevern.nentis large and gro wing, involv- |
ing every imaginable question of admiralty. |
law. and equity jurisdiction, not the least Of
which are those growing out of the admins |
.-stion Of our revenue laws. He should es- |
peciaily be a good admiralty lawyer. and be i
familiar With the many statutes passed dur
ing the recent rebellion to regulate the vari-
ous departments in the administration ofthe !
property taken, on land and sea, by the army
and navy. Indeed, he should be well ac-
qnainsed with the new phases given to our
Jurisprudence BY the events Of the war in the |
:iyat of the decisions of United States courts
hese and elsewhere. His duties are various
and responsible, and must be more or less
discharged without reference to the Attorney
Who must be chiefly the adviser Of
the President and his counsellor, politically l
and otherwise, which must occupy most of
his official time. Not SO with this new Off
ser. He is purely the chief Law officer of the
and should be selected with that
view and its peculiar duties.
