Practical piety. A teacher of the freedmen
was sitting in the window of her room watching
two negroes loading goods into cart. One of
them was disposed to shirk; the other stopped
and looking sharply at the lazy one, said: "Sam,
do yon expect to go to heavenp eyes" "Then
take hold and lift"
A lighthouse keeper, recently appointed on
the New Jersey coast, made ridiculous blum
der. Immediately after he had taken possession
complaints were made that the lights went out
by twelve O'Clock. The proper officer was at
once sent to look into the matter, and he was
told that complaints were made against him.
"For whatr was the inquiry. "Why," replied
the officer, "they say thar your Ii hts do not
burn after twelve O'clock at night" Well .
was the reply, 81 know they don't, for put 'em
out myself then, for thought all the vessels had
got in by that time, and ! wanted to save the
ile."

over $1,000 EACH Winnie Ream, very incom-
petent artist, but remarkably successful lob
bvist, was hired by congress to make a statue
of President Lincoln, congress agreeing TO pay
her $4,000 for it. This agreement was strenu-
ously opposed by members whose culture and
judgment should have had more influence; her
lobbying prevailed against them, and the statue
was ordered, Winnie Ream's statue of Lincoln
has now been added to our already remarkable
chamber of imagery" at Washington. 1t was
unveiled" with flourish that evidently meant
something. What it meant is now understood.
She is lobbying for additional pay. She means
TO get another $4,000, if possible; and there
are stupid people in and around congress, who
seem disposed to give her more money.

FRESH NEWS OF DR.. LIvINGsToNE.-Sir
Roderick Murchison has sent the following letter
to the London Times:
"a heartily rejoice TO announce to the public
that have this morning Dan. 24thl received
letter from DR.. Kirk, at Zanzibar, dated the 9Th
of December, 1870, which has relieved me from
all anxiety respecting the fate of my illustrious
friend Livingstone. DR.. Kirk has Just received
letter from the great Arab Sheik Said of Uny-
amyembe, dated 16 Rabea cl Akbar, which
being translated is to the effect; after COM
pliments, your honored letter has reached, and
your friend has understood it. The people
| Chat is OF caravan sent from Zanzibar) ar
rived in good health, and are going on to Ujiji
to our friend the doctor. The news of him
is that he has not yet returned from
Manimes, ~ 1.-THE Arabic word is spelt in
three different ways but expect him soon, and
probably he and the people with supplies will
reach Ujiji at the same time' Dr. Kirk adds /:
AT ali events, on his arrival at Uilji from his
western journey he will have goods for his pres
ent wants. The new gang of men with fresh
goods has set out, and, the roads being free, we
may hope they will reach quickly and safely
We now learn for the first time that Livingstone
had made an extensive journey to the west of
Lake Tanganyika, and this accounts for the
long continued absence of all information re-
speeding him. Any letters that Livings one
may have written and confided to jealous Arabs
have probably either been destroyed by them or
lost with some of the caravans that persisted on
the journey to the coast during the cholera cpl
demic."

OLD FOLKS CoNCERT.-"A peep at
the future" or, "a few minutes at the
Old Folks Concert of the Second Rutland
Centennial Celebration in 1870" will be
one of the many good things given at the
Old Folks Concert, Friday evening next,
at the Rutland Opera House. 1t will be
introduced during the concert and is a
sort of Burletta Extravaganza in three
parts, showing what we are coming to or
the music, manners and society of a hun.
dred years to come, arranged expressly
for this occasion.
Part 1st.-Opening chorus of the Old
Folks Concert to be given at the Second
Rutland Centennial Celebration in 1870,
with words and music as nearly adapted
to the requirements of that occasion as it
is possible for us to guess.
Part 2d.-An Old Folks Concert time
of 1870, showing the manner and style of
one Of the pieces to be sung at that con.
cert.
Part 3d.-Finale, Grand Double Table
aux of society and customs of the future
one hundred year hence entitled "Hurrah
for election" and the "Home, Sweet Home
of 1870"
We mention only part of the pro-
gramme now, but the Society feel confid-
ence that this concert will give better
satisfaction than any other social enter.
tertainment ever before offered to the
Rutland public.

ORANGE COUNTY.

Discovery OF THE CLOTHING BUR-
GLARS -RECovERY OF THE PROPERTY.
- The three vicious looking ''coves''
who were arrested aud held in confine-
ment on a charge OF vsgrancy, but really
to await developments in the search for
the clothing stolen from H. W. Kingsley 8
store, were yesterday allowed to go at lib
erty, their further detention being deemed
unwarranted by any evidence against
them. On their discharge, it was expect
ed they would pursue their peaceful way
to the classic shadrs Of Whitehall. But
it appears their business in Rutland was
not quite flushed, and that they had Il
little matter of baggage to look after.
While Chief of Police Crawford was
quietly standing near the candy shop of
Spencer & Sawyer, about half-past eleven
o'clock last evening, be observed three
well-dressed men coming down Grove
street with bundles in their arms As
they passed him be scanned them closely,
but did not at first recognize them. An
instant after, however, it flashed upon
him that thy were is old prisoners who
had been liberated few hours before,
and who having almost completely dis
guised themselves by donniug q portion
of the stolen cltthing, were making off
with the remainder. He at once ordered
them to halt, and not to stir from their
tracks. Being little in advance, they
dropped their plumber and took to their
heels, going down West street at des-
perate rate.
Mr.. Crawford followed ia pursuit, but
finding the fugitives too feet for him, and
the race hopeless, he recovered the stolen
goods, and went for assistance. The
rogues took the track toward Center Rut-
land, and Mr.. Crawford, with others,
took a carriage and started in that direc-
ton. Other officers also started for points
where it was thought the burglars might
attempt to get to the cars, but we are I'M
able to give the result of the pursuit at
the hour of going TO press. All the stolen
goods were recovered, excepting what
the rogues had appropriated for their per-
sonal use. 1t is evident the property had
been concealed in the vicinity of Pine
Hill, and the robbers were endeavoring to
esprit" it away on one of the midnight
trains.
