PURITY, STRENGTH, ECoNoMY.-These
three requisites are combined in Doc
LEY weIl-known YEAST POWDER. AS
each ingredient entering into its com
position is free from any deleterious OF
injurious substances, the PURITY and
full STRENGTH of each article is guaran'
teed in the manufacture and as one
pound of DooLEY's YEAST POWDER will
last third longer in culinary depart
ment, than the vast majority of Baking
Powders in market, it proves conclu'
sively that it is the most economical.
Convenient to have in the house, and
universally produces light and elegant
food.

POLICE CoURT.-The regular Monday
display Of galoots and fusileers was
good.
Patrick O'Donnell and Melchor Year.
man were arrested on a charge Of com.
hitting an assault and battery on Thos.
Hamm and Eliza his WIFE Thomas
and Eliza have not been trotting square
ly together in matrimonial harness for
some time past, and on Thursday even
ing they met according to appointment
and talked as they walked and walked
as they talked over their differences.
Finally they sat down near a fence,
when O'Donnell and Yearman began
throwing stones at the fence. Judge
Good held that this did not constitute
assault and battery, and discharged the
accused.
Thomas Nolan, a wild looking Fee
MAN, arrived in the city on Saturday
evening ats o'clock and at ! was found
blind drunk near the B. Il o. depot. In
his defense Nolan said he was not in
the habit Of getting drunk, but he had
taken two or three drinks on this occa-
sion, and would not deny but that he
had taken the last one "a little too
quick" His haste caused him to be
fined 81 and costs or five days geology.
William Lett and Christopher Pott,
better known as King William and the
Crown Prince, was arrested for singing
German war songs on Main street on
Sunday evening, between s and 9 o'clock,
and thereby creating disorder. Pott is
a little one and don't hold much, but
he has wonderful lungs. His voice
rang out on the night like the blare Of
a trumpet As Crown Prince he is
success. They were fined s. and costs
each. -.
The hearing Of the charge against a
colored brother, named Richard Kinney,
ofcommitting an assault and battery on
Edward Laughlin, was continued until
this morning because Of the non-atten-
dance of Kiuney's witnesses.

DID NOT RECEIVE THEM.-We were
informed yesterday BY some of the
parties mentioned that they did not
receive letters warning them that they
were not to be burned out, as reported
Though we considered our information
as most reliable, we only made the
statement as the rumor Of the street
and without vouching for it at all. II
seemed to us that no man was foo
enough to write a note threatening t.
do a thing, putting people on their guard
advising them to be on the watch
against him and his acts, and after,
wards do what he had threatened
During the day yesterday, we heard
that several other parties had received
such letters, but found the reports to be
untrue.

RIVER NKvs.-The river is still fall
ing, the marks last evening showing
seven feet six inches in the channel.
The Major Anderson arrived last
evening. She will leave for Cincinnati
al 3 o'clock this afternoon. The popu-
larity of the Anderson and the high
reputation Of her officers as skillful and
competent gentlemen renders it certain
that all who wish 70 visit the Queen
City will take passage on her. &c.
The famous steamer Courier will
leave for Parkersburg this morning at
IL o'clock. We can advise all who
wish to make a pleasant trip to take
passage with Captain Jack Harrison on
this favorite boat. f. N.-..
The Hope. for Matalnoras and inter
mediate ports, will leave at 10 o'clock
this morning. Captain Williamson
will take the best of care Of those who
may take passage with him. Fol
freight or passage apply on board.
The Kanawha Belle refuses to carry
the mails up Kanawha.
The Greesville Times Of the 18th says
of dangerous break in the Lake Boil
var levee:
From Mr.. T. 8. Anderson. who is JUS
from there, we are informed of THU
calamitous event. The outer levee
broke night before last, and the mair
levee across the mouth of Lake Boil
var Yesterday. The break is beyond al
power of repair, and the running watel
is continually enlarging it; it is run
ming through at depth of about five
feet. The neighboring planters s,rov'
hard to stop the first break, but in vain
1t is impossible to predict with any
accuracy the probable extent of coun
try which will be flooded. "a.

COOP JOKE ON THE AUTHORITIES
We were yesterday made acquainted
with the facts Of a burglary, the par
ticulars Of which the prison authorities
at Moundsville have used every exertion
to keep out Of the papers, and which is
the most extraordinary on record. On
Friday night week, some burglar or
burglars performed the extraordinary
operation of breaking into the peniten-
tiary, and stole therefrom some twelve
or fifteen pairs of boots. some meat, and
other matters, making their escape with
their plumber. An entrance was effected
by means of a ladder, which was placed
against the stockade, and which the
bold operators left standing, as monu-
ment of their daring and success. 1t is
quite common for men to get into the
penitentiary because of stealing but
this is the first time we ever heard OF
their getting in there to steal. It's q
big joke on the guards, anyhow.

PLANT TREEs.-Every editor com
mences, in the spring Of the year, to
call upon his readers to plant trees,
Some people always name every tree
they plant.
An Indiana man planted tree in
front Of his house, and named it after
his wife. Soon the tree died, and the
woman lived but a day or two after.
Now you would be surprised at the
number of men that are planting trees
in front of their domiciles, and naming
them after their respective, if not re-
spected, wives, and the sickliest looking
trees that can be found, too-trees that,
with the tenderest care, cannot possibly
live more than two weeks. The dodge
is too thin. The women see through
it, and have resolved not to die.
