THE Johnstown (Pa.) Democrat says: Mr..
John C. Rifle, of this city, showed US the
other day an egg, the shell at one end having
been broken by a member of his family WAC,
was about to use it for cooking purposes,
when it was discovered that within the egg
were five kernels of oats, which had germi-
mated and had sprouts on them nearly or quite
half an inch long. The eggshell was per-
fectly sound and the egg fresh and fit for use.
How came the oats in the egg! and how did
they terminate and grow without the pres
ence of air:

AUDACIOUs ROBBERY.
Lady,s Pocket Picked Of over 500.

LadY's Pocket Picked Of Over 500.
1t would appear that there is a regularly
organized band of thieves plying their
vocation in this city, and who, as the season
of travel sets in, and winter advances,
watch for and seize upon every opportu-
nifty to make q successful haul. They
hover about the deposs at the time of the
arrival and departure OF trains; thew at
tend public gatherings and assemblages,
and pry into peoples private affairs; thew
visit the hotels and lounge about state
rooms, unknown and unsupported by hon
est persons. They ply their calling with
s7ch cunning ingencity and persistent APP
plicalion, that when least thought of they
are ready to pounce upon their victims
Only Thursday we recorded the fact of
Mrs. Col. Bryant, dropping her pocket
book, containing upwards Of thousand
dollars, in front of Huntingtons store,
which evidently fell into the hands of some
one OF the adroit thieves who infest our
thoroughfares and public places.
But short time since lady residing on
Shankland street was robbed of 81 200 in
money and jewels, and in the meantime a
number of smaller larcenies and robberi6s
have been committed. One of the most
recent, and one of cool audacity, occurred
yesterday morning on passenger train at
the Chattanooga depot. A lady, whose
name is Mrs. Parthenis Mccall, residing,
as we learned, not far from Columbia,
reached the city on the morning passenger
train. As she went to get of the cars, she
was addressed by one of three men, who
opened the back door of the car, telling
her that it was the door for her to get out.
Not suspecting, she turned about and made
her exit at the back door indicated, the
men in pretended politeness proffeTing
their aid and assistance. Shortly after
leaving the cars, she missed her pocket1
book, with the contents, which had clearly
been distracted by the parties rendering
assistance.
They were nowhere to be seen, nor is the
lady certain that she would recognize them
were she to meet them. Mrs. Mccall had in
her pocketbook the sum Of $50 in United
States notes, of the denomination of fves
and tens, one FIVE dollar gold piece, forty
five cents in change and valued and pecu-
liar Spanish coin Of triangular shape, the
entire amount being over 500. The lady
went to Edgefeld, where she is temporarily
with some friends. No clue whatever has
been afforded to the perpetrators of the
audacious robbery, though every effort viii
be made to apprehend them and bring
them to Justice

Observance of Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving Day was observed in the
city and by cur people in manner com
mendable and worthy. Il was a general
holiday. The public Institutions, includ-
ing the schools, the postoffice, the banks,
ETC., were closed, and many of the bust
ness houses in the city. There we're serv-
ices in the several churches, and the dis
ceurses were able and well conceived, and
were listen d TO by large aud intelligent
congregations, The various hotels made
the day the occasion of extra dinners 20
their guests and patrons, and the number
of Thanksgiving turkeys was unusually
large, while the manner of their prepare
ton was full viudication of the abund-
ant Hberality and excellent good taste OF
our landlords on such occasions. The day
was one of genial socialities and pleasant
reunions, and was very much enjoyed by
all classes. The young folks passed it in
innocent festivities and melry-makings
There were a number of hunting parties
in the fields and forests adjacent who
spent the day in regular Nimrod style, re-
tuning in the evening laden with game
The older classes, and the middle aged
enjoyed visits and social interchanges. The
entire day passed off pleasantly, and we
trust that We may live prosperously to
witness the returns of many such Thanks
givings.

A Slight Mistake,

A short time since at q social concert,
we shall not say exactly when or where, a
young gentleman, noted alike for his
courtesy and his modesty, and whose gal
lantry will favorably compare with that of
Walter Raleigh in the days OF ''Queen
Bess, occupied seat a little remote from
the light Of the chandelier. A pretty lady
sat near him. CHANGING at the floor during
a pause in the music, he espied what he
thought was the lsdy's handkerchief, the
lace-trimmed edge just visible from under
her dress. Turning to his fair neighbor
he calamity Whispered, ''gou've dropped
your handkerchief" And before she could
reply, he stopped to pick it up. Horror
He had seized the edge OF her pet-skirt,
and did not discover his mistake till the
top Of handsome gaiter boot stared him
in the face, and the faint sound Of laughs
nipped in the bud by real handkerchief,
warned him of his error. The young gen.
tleman when he reads this may rest assured
that We appreciate his "Phelinks" on that
occasion.

GOrtschaKOfS's Reply.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 24-Prince
Gortschakoff's reply TO the British and
Austrian governments is very cOrcililtory.
1t explains the pacific meaning of the
| previous declaration, and atirms that
Russia Graves peace generally and in the
East especially. 1t would be impossible
to maintain it without a common under
standing, and Russia shrinks from acting
separately from the other powers.
Austria's Reply TO GOrtschakofE
VIENNA, Nov. 24-Bar0n Won Beust
in reply to Prince GCrtschakOf says: In
the face of the obligations contracted in
| 1856. which are not to be evadcd or an
nulled, defence only eXacts reply. The
fact that Turkey can sustain feet where
Russia cannot is not sufficient for srbi-
trarly dissolving treaty. The action of
Russia endangersS all existing and fu-
ture treaties Turkey is not responsible
for the union of the principalities. Tur-
key asks that we shall not give sanction
to a breach of treaty. The mere holiday
excursions of frigates into the Euxine,
with princes on board, weIe perfectly
harmless. Russia should have shown dis
satisfaction and spoken a. the proper
time. Austria deplores Russia's determl-
nation, and expresses her surprise. She
points out to Russia the inevitable conse-
Quences of the step she has taken.
In the second note from Won Beust to
the Austrian Ambassador, Count Chotick,
he denies having taken any initiative in
1867. He proposed joint action Of all
the powers, but no independent action
unless consequent upon a congress which
then could not have been serious. Now
the greatest apprehensiOns exist. Excited
as the Christian subjects of the Porte are,
