Paw for Preaching.

When it costs "A men several hunareds
or thousands of dollars, or several years
of hard labor and selfdenial to become
a competent aud acceptable minister, Is
there any unfairness in compensating
him according to knowledge, expert
ence, and ability ia the work? 1t IL not
simply paying for preaching; it is pay
ing for time, labor, sacrifice, study, aud
competency. The old negro gave the
true philosophy Of compensation:
"lou charge dollar for kiilinsa calf
YOU sable rascal said the planter to the
old negro. .u..
no, no, Massa," replied the gentle
man from Africa, me charge fifty cent'
for KILN calf, and fifty cents for know
ing how"
What else was Paufs idea when h'
said, Study to show thyseif a work
man." etc? and when again he said
"rhe workman is worthy of his hire?

Eyu, OF PEAcTTcAL JoKINo.-The
Galesburg (Illinois) Free Press, Of De-
cember 80, publishes the annexed de-
nlonble result of q practical joke /:
4 case of sudden or violent fright
occurred In our neighboring town of
Abingdon on Monday last, which
should prove a sad and impressive
warning to all who are partial to
indulriHg in practical jokes. 1t seems
from What we can learn, that on that
day a party of boys, disguised by
hidcous masks and grotesque garments,
called at the residence of an estimable
lady, Mrs. George H. Marshall, in that
place. They entered nOiselessly at the
back door, and succeeded In frighten-
ing al infant almost into commissions.
Mrs. NJ, hearing the Mortified scream
of her child, hastened to its assistance
to shield and protect it from harm. In
hurrying to her child che suddenly
encountered the masked figures, and
fell fainting to the floor. She was
shortly afterward found by her friends,
and proper remedies were admins
tered, but her revival only witnessed
the horrifying fact that she was insane.
Up to this writing, we regret to say,
no lucid intervals have been developed,
and the woman, once q happy wife
and q proud mother, Is now n raving
maniac, bereft Of reason and covering
In fright.

CURIosIrIEs OF THE CoUR1tRooN.-
While examining into the competence
of persons summoned as jurors
some curious things are brought to
light. During the impanneling Of a
Jury yesterday, to try Broadwater, one
man avowed himself opposed to the
death penalty under every circum-
stance Of crime /; another believed that
life should only be taken In lease of
war;" On the occasion Of \ former
trial for murder in this city, a man
"a q juror, in his examina-
ton, said very deliberately that he
believed killing a man was j~ustiiable
under some circumstances. He was
asked to specify; to which he replied:

man who owed you money and would
not pay.-Reese Riper Repalie.

week VIC hear of the arrival In our val
leys of large droves of. Texas cattle,
and we know of several parties now in
the South for the purpose Of driving to
this district cattle raised in Texas and
New Mexico. This class of cattle have
been our principal supply; and al
though some of the States east Of us
have passed stringent laws In regard
to this class of cattle, we have never
thought the facts warranted such legis-
lation. No markets In the Union are
supplied with better beef than White
Pine, and we have never heard of any
unfortunate results from the beef con-
sumed by our people.

A GIRL RESCUED FROM A LIFE OF
SHAME.

From time to time accounts have
been published IN the daily papers
showing how young girls are induced
to leave their homes by means Of false
representations, and taken into houses
Of i'll repute to lead n life of shame and
infamy, and to be forever debarred
from again entering into the social
family circle or respectable society.
Another Of these cases has recently
occurred, and the victim. through the
interference of the Chief Of Police,
rescued.
Some ten days since Chief Crowley
learned from a clergyman In Oakland
that n young girl was being detained
In n house Of I'll fame OH Sacramento
street, and that it was her desire to
leave. The Chief detailed Captain
Douglass to 60 to the house, 1t being
that Of Mrs. Miller, and have III inter-
view with the girl, whose name is
Mary Queen, and Is but little over 10
years Of age. 1t appears that Mrs.
Miller was In New York n short time
since, and brought to this city, with
other girls, Mary Queen, under an
agreement to do homework. She ar
rived here last Christmas day with
Mrs. Miller, and was at once taken to
her house of prostitution. Captain
Douglass had an interview with the
girl, In the presence of Mrs. Miller,
but she showed 10 inclination or desire
to leave the house. The Captain left
her, and reported what had occurred
to the Chief.
A few days since the Chief received
q note from another gentleman, who
also stated that the girl desired to
leave the house where She was, as she
did not wish to. lead that kind Of life.
On Tuesday, Captain Douglass again
called ut the house and had another i'll
terview with the girl, Mrs. Miller be-
ing present Oh this occasion. The girl
was not decided rs to what course to
pursue, but the Captain, without GER
emory, took the girl away and brought
her to the Chiefs office. She was after
wards taken to the. county Jail, and
placed in charge of the Matron until
she could be sent to the Magdalen Asy-
lum. Since the girl has been taken
from her house. Mrs. Miller has called
ut the Station House for the purpose of
seeing the girl, but n permit has been
refused her. The girl will be taken to
the Magdalen Asylum to-day or to-
morrow, and thus will be saved from
leading a life Of degredation.-S. F.

A BOLD ROBBERY.

A most bold and daring robbery was
committed ut eight O'Clock, yesterday
morning, by a thief known by the
name Of Welch, alias Clifford, IN Nc
Gurren & Donnelly's saloon, No. 30
Montgomery street. 1t appears that
the thief went into the saloon about
five O'Clock yesterday morning, and
went up to the stove to warm himself.
After he had been In there q short time
he asked the barkceper for q dime to
get some coffee. 1t was given to him,
and he returned to the saloon, some
time afterwards, standing with his
back towards the stove and facing the
bar, In the further end of which there
was In a.corner q tin casll-boX, par
TALLY concealed by q punch bowl and
heater. At the time there was another
man In the saloon seated OH q chair
asleep. About eight O'Clock the bar
keeper was engaged in cleaning n
stoop leading ont Into a yard. and
while he had his back turned the thief
went stealthily up to the bar, took the
small cash-box, containing about 81, 900
in coin, a handbook and other papers,
and ran out of the store. At this the
man who had been asleep awoke and
gave the alarm, but the fellsw was
already ont Of sight. The matter was
at once reported ut the police office,
and the thief, learning that the police
were after him, concluded to give him.
self up at the Chiefs office. He was
searched, and all that was found on
him was a ten-dollar piece, sewed up
IN a sleeve Of q heavy overcoat which
he had. He also had on a new pair of
boots and vest, but has persistently re-
fused to tell where he bought them, or
what he has done with the money, and
denies the robbery. The police have
ascertained that he bought the new
boots yesterday morning, for $l2, on
Geary street, leaving his old shoes be-
hind, which are covered with sand.
Some months since this fellow was
arrested In the same saloon for a lar
he committed in a hotel In Santa
Cruz, where he had been employed.
The detectives recovered the jewelry
he stole from the room Of one of the
boarders; but the parties. who were
robbed refused to prosecute him after
the property was returned to them,
and he was dlscharged.-S. r. Ala, Is.
