PARDONED.-At the August term, 1869,
of the Circuit Court OF Berkeley county,
john l.. Sincindiver was convicted of
forgery and sentenced to the Peniten-
tiary for the term of two years. The
Jury in rendering their verdict recon-
mendeG the prisoner to Executive Glenn
ency, under the belief, it is alleged, that
that though technically guilty, that
they were doubtful of his moral guilt,
an opinion which seems to have been
shared by the officers of the Court gen.
arally. The facts in the case are as fol-
lows:
Sincindiver gave Il note or bond for
the payment of certain amount of
money, to a man named Tabb, and
signed to it the name OF his uncle. The
uncle testified that he had never put
his signature to the note. In order to
show that Sincindiver did not intend to
commit fraud, il has been urged that
the relations existing between him and
his uncle were such as to induce the
belief that he signed the name of his
uuc'e without intending to commit an
offense or cause loss to any one. The
amount of the bond was paid in full.
1t is also stated that Sincindiver is the
owner of an unimoumbeIed farm and
large amount of personal property in
Berkeley county, and was therefore
able to pay the amount of the bond.
When the uncle denied that he had
signed the note, Sincindiver at once ex-
ecuted deed of trust upon his personal
property and secured the holdSr of the
bond TO his satisfaction. The attorneys
on both sides say there was an absence
of intention to dsfraud. The physioi an

CATION with a view to pardon, certifi' s
to the failing health of the prisoner
and the danger of permanent disease
from further confinement and the judge
of the Circuit Court, prosecuting attor-
ney, clerk of the court, sheriff and
other county officers unite in recon
mendipg his pardon. The Governor, in
view of the facts set forth above, on
yesterday granted Sincindiver an I'M
conditional pardon.

A New LIGHT.-Dr. T. f. Chambers
has on exhibition at McLain Brothers
drug store a machine for the manufac-
ture Of hydro carbon gas, which is we'll
worth visit from our citizens; simple
and compact in form, generating gas
without a particle of heat, and from
the atmosphere We breathe. This ma
chine must work a complete revolution
in the labor of producing gas, for the
gas manufactured is void of offensive
smell, cannot waste, for it is made only
as used, and gives light of at least
twenty per cent. more brilliancy than
ordinary coal gas. But wo cannot in
the limits of this article tell half of the
advantages of this gas or the simplicity
of the machine. Go and see it, and be
convinced that it is all the inventor
claims for it.

BunGLARY.-The notion and variety

BukeLARY.-The notion and variety
store of Mrs. Garfortb, on Market street,
opposite the Mcclure House, was entered
by burglars on Sunday, during the alb
sence of Mrs. Garforth, and robbed OF
about $50 in money, breastpin and
sleeve buttons, lot of butter and eggs
and other provisions. The burglars OBJ
tanned an entrance through the cellar
kitchen. The door at the top of the
stairs leading to the upper portion of
the house was fastened by bar. This
the burglars removed by driving out
the screws that held the iron brackets
in which the bar rested. Mrs. Garforth
and her family left the establishment
about 8 o'clock Sunday morning, and
did not return until between eight and
nine o'clock Sunday night. The rascals
evidently knew that the place was I'M
guarded, for, from the appearance OF
things they must have occupied two or
three hours in their search, aud had not
got away with their plumber when the
occupants of the building returned, for
they left in such haste as to leave por'
ton of the money they had stolen on the
kitchen floor.

The Anderson leaves this afternoon
at 3 o'clock for Cincinnati. If passen-

style, or shippers want their freight to
60 to Cincinnati on time, let them pa
