HARPERs MAGAZINE !
NOTICES OF THE PRESS.


No more delightful travels are printed
in the English language than appear per-
petually in HARPER's MAGAZINE. They
are read with equal interest and satisfac-
ton by boys of every grade, from eighteen
to eighty. Its scientific papers, while suf-
ticiently profound to demand the attention
of the learned, are yet admirably adapted
TO the popular understanding, and design
ed as much to diffuse correct information
concerning current scientific discovery as
il could be if it was the organ of the 'Soci-
ETY. for the Diffusion of Useful Knowl-
edge" The great design of Harper's is to
give correct information and rational
amusement to the great masses of the peo-
pie. There are few intelligent American
families in which Harper's Magazine would
not be an appreciated and highly welcome
guest. There is no monthly Magazine an
intelligent reading family can less afford to
be without. Many magazines are accum-
ulated. Harper's is edited. There is not
a magazine that il printed which shows
more intelligent pains expended on its ar
ticles and mechanical execution. There is
not cheaper magazine published. There
is not, contessedly, a more popular maya
zine in the world.-[New England Home

THIEF ARREsTED.-A man named
Samuel Paul, came to the residence of
John Mendenhall, in Beaver township,
about three weeks ago, begging, and
stayed to work awhile. Last Sunday
night, he took a notion TO take a trip
to Canada, or some other seaport, and
thinking little filthy lucre would be
an advantage, went to Mr.. Menden-
halls private desk or drawer, and drew
out $500, watch and a pistol. He
was pursued the next morning by Reu-
ben Kline, Constable OF Ashland town
ship, and others, who arrested him
near Mimm's hotel, after desperate
resistance, in which all parties display
ed their muscular powers. The stolen
property-all but $90-was found on
his person, and he confessed his guilt
freely. He was lodged in the Clarion
Jail on Monday evening, and stands a
fair chance for trip to Allegheny,
