ROBBERY WITH TRAINED PIGEONS.

ROBBERY WITH TRAINED PIGEONS.
A new species of robbery has of
late been perpetrated in New York
by gang of young boys, aided by a
pigeon. The mod,ts operandi of the
thieves was really very clever. They
first threw their trained pigeon over
the fence or wall into the rear yard
of the house they proposed robbing,
and then two of them went to the
front basement door. They asked
leave of the servant to catch their
pigeon, which had flown into the
rear yard of the house. The request,
to all seeming intent a proper one,
was invariably granted, and one went
into the yard. While he was en-
deavoring to catch the pigeon, and
attracting the attention of all in the
house to the rear yard, the other
thief glided into the front basement
with bag and scooped in all the
silverware and valuable property he
could lay hands on, and then prompt
ly skedaddled. Sufficient time hav-
ing elapsed, the trained pigeon was
at once caught, and the second thief
left. The silverware was then found
to be stolen. Quite number of the
mansions in the Fifth Avenue have
in this way been despoiled. Several
boys, ranging from IA to 20 years of
age, have been arrested for this inge-
NOUS and novel mode Of criminal in
dustry. -

The London Times thinks that the
debt of the United States would soon
become trifing as a burden upon the
people if left severely alone. "The
growth of population and wealth go
on progressive multiplication, as
all America requires is peace, and
the removal of such restrictions and
hamper her industries. Already the
annual income Of the citizens of the
United States is greater than that of
any other nation. Presently the diff
ference between the annual income
and the annual expenditure-that is,
the surplus the community is able to
save in it's urivate capacity-will ex,
coed that Of the United Kingdom;
and it's power of sustaining taxes will
increase faster than the debt dimin-
ishes in relative proportion to the
to the annual income, while the debt
also undergoes a decrease owing to
the fall in the value of the precious
metals" The Times concludes that
it would be wiser to remove the tax
es that tetter commerce than to con-
tinue them to liquidate debt rapid

"The American has precedence
he is a sovereign and you are sub
ject" These were the words of Ma
polron III. to a French nobleman of
high rank when deciding the question
of precedence at one of the court
balls at the Tulleries between this
nobleman and an American citizen.
There is a great deal of significance
in what the Emperor SAID as showing
the honor of being an American cit
izen and the position our countrymen
may hold abord if they be the right
stamp.

CAMP FIRE STORIES,

|
The stories below are copie,
from the Grand Arnay Journal
An officer of New York regiment.
who afterwards became famous as a
general, under Sherman, atfrst Bull
Run, came suddenly upon a man
who had taken refuge from shot and
shell in hole just large enough to
comfortably contain his body. After
demanding his name and regiment,
the officer Indignantly ordered him
to "get out of there"
Placing his thumb to his nose and
extending the fingers in that express
i've manner generally SO we under
stood, he replied:
NO you don't old fellow, you
want this place YOURSELF
The following dialogue took place
on the march to Alexandria, imme-
diately after the second battle of
Bull Run. Major J., who had been
severely censured for leaving the
field at Malver Hill in rather has
ty manner, and who was afterwards
the subject of a court martial for a
similar weakness, thus accosted
bugler of the tender age of twelve
years:
well, my lad, were you not very
much frightened during the fight ?"
To which the entreprid little SOL
der promptly replied:
yes sir, / was badly scared, but
Major, didn't let my legs find it
out 7"
The hit was so pointed, and, withal
so Just, that a roar of laughter burst
from the lips of all who heard it,
much to the discontinue of the (?)
Ma or, who put spurs to his horse
and rode to the front of the column.
During the organization of colored
troops in Kentucky, considerable
trouble was taken to perfect them in
the knowledge of their duties as
sentinels, and to this end all kinds
of expedient were resorted to. APP
preaching one of the dusk warriors,
on camp guard, one bright moonlight
night, l was challenged and respond
ed in due form, but few moments
afterward expressing a desire to see
if his musket was not rebel one,
it was unhesitatingly handed to me.
Wishing to impress upon his mind
how indiscreet he had been, and the
necessity of caution, l stepped quick
ly back and bringing the piece to
charge, the bayonet to his breast, l
said :
Now, sir; suppose I was a reb,
what would you do p
After scratching his head for mo-
ment, in the mean time carefully
considering the situation, he replied
well, Massa, | doesn't know, but
| spect's I'd run
This was too much for my gravity,
and for that time he got off scot-free.
The lesson was not lost on him, how
ever, for when few nights after
ward, very stormy one, by-the-by,
Lieutenant L. intentionally gave
the wroung counterslgn, he was or
dered to Mark time, dar!' and the
order being complied with, the SEN
tinel resumed tho walking of his beat.
Lieuten ant L. soou tired of this, and
offered to give the proper counter
sign, but it was OF no use; every
time the Lieutenant relaxed his ex-
ertions, down would come the bayo-
net and with the reply, in tones not
to be misunderstood Mark time
dar, tell we mark time dar no such
man as you got de countersign.'
This was kept up for fully half an
hour, and the relief was never more
heartily welcomed by weary sentinel
than it was that by night Lieutenant

Thursday, June Is, 1871.
MRS. JUDGE JENKINS,

MRS. JUDGE JENKINS.
BEING THE ONLY GENUINE SEQUEL TO MAUD
MULLER
Maud Muller all that summer day,
Raked the meadow, sweet with hay,
Yet looking down the distant lane,
She hoped the Judge would come again.
But when he came with smile and bow,
She only blushed and whispered "haowf'
And spoke of her pa, and wondered whether
He'd give consent they should wed together?
Old Muller burst into tears, then
Begged that the Judge would lend him ten
For trade was dull and wages low,
And craps" this year were rather slow.
And ere the languid summer died
Fair Maud became the Judges bride.
But on the day that they were mated,
Mauds brother Bob was intoxicated;
And Maud's relations, twelve in all,
Were very drunk at the Judges hall.
And when the Summer came again,
The young wife bore him babies twain,
And the Judge was blest, but tho't it strange
That bearing babies made such a change
For Maud grew broad, and red and stout,
And the waist that his arm once clasped about
Was more than he could span; and he
Sighed as he pondered, ruefully,
How that which in Maud was native grace,
In Mrs. Jenkins was out of place;
And tho't of the twins, and wished that they
Looked less like the man who raked the hay
On Muller's farm, and dreamed with pain
OF the day he wandered down the lane.
And looking down that dreary track,
More. n half regretted that he came back;
For had he waited he might have wed
Some maiden fair and thoroughbred,
For there be women fair as she
Whose verbs and nouns do more agree,
Alas for maiden, alas for Judge,
For the sentimental, that's ne-half fudge.
For Maud soon thought the Judge bore,
With all his learning and all his lore;
And the Judge would have bartered Maud's fair
face
For more refinement and social grace.
If of all sad words of tongue and pen,
The saddestare these, 1T might have BEEN
More sad are those who daily see,
1T is, but it hadn't ought to be-

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Be Guided by what you know

There is an old proverb which slys, Experience
is the safest guide" To this guide the sick and
ailing naturally turn when casting about for the
means of relief They inquire what medicine
has done for others, before they adopt it them
selves. Of all the remedies and preventives in
use, Host tiers Stomach Bitters meets the test
most triumphsntly, and hence its immense popu-
,srity aud vast sales. The sufferer from indiges-
ton is sure to find some one among his friends
who has been cured of that ailment by the famous
vegetable stomaehic. The victim of fever and
ague, liver complaint constipation, nervous pros
ration, or general debility, has ouIy to make in
quiry in the neighborhood where he resides in
order to discover what this standard restorative
has effected in cases similar to his own. In the
published testimony to its merits he will fud q
volume of proofs of its sanitary properties, which
1t is impossible for his common sense to resist. He
tries it, aud the efs;t it prDluees oa his system
adds another to the host Of with in its favor.
Thus its reputation, founded on facts, not as,er-
ions continually grows and spreads. Charataus
