Pickpockets Arrested.-On Saturday
afternoon last, Mr.. E. W. Janney having
been detailed as member of special police,
to prevent disturbance while the Central
Park Circus was on exhibition at this place,
noticed three strange men pressing the
crowd that were in front of the ticket
wagon, in an unusual manner. They
would spread out their arms and press on
the rear of the crowd till reaching the
wagon, then step out and repeat the per-
Torrance. In few minutes Mr.. Lewis
Boulder, who had been at the wagon pur-
chasing tickets, reported his pocket book,
which contained two five dollars bills and
some small money, missing.
The three men had quit the crowd and
walked away toward the railroad track
Mr.. Janney, as soon as possible, procured
assistance and pursuing overlook them
short distance up the railroad. They were
brought back and lodged in Jail, and on
Monday had hearing before Justice
Howard
The parties gave the names of Charles
sweeny, Henry Flynn and John Mahoney.
After hearing the case, Henry Flynn and
Charles Sweeny were committed to Jail,
and John Mahoney, who was mere boy
and the youngest of the party, was dis
charged. 1t was in evidence that pock-
ct book had been found by Henry Wood
ON Sunday morning in bunch of briers
along side of the railroad where the accus-
ed passed the afternoon before, with
broken clasp, and answering the descrip-
ton Of MIR. Boulden's missing pocket book,
except that the inside had been torn out.
Among the money found on the prisoners

sufficient to warrant the commitment of

indict Mr.. Mathews for adultry, and alto
rether there was fair prospect of having
a series of law suits, had the Grand Jury
found true bill in any Of the cases.
Mr.. Mathews visited Elkton on Satur-
day last to ascertain what chance there
was of procuring some evidence that would
impeach Maria's veracity, but was COM
PEELED to leave disappointed and utterly
crushed in spirit. Poor man! we sincerely
pity him, and can freely forgive the desper-
ate attempt of his friends to make diver
sion in his favor, by a bill for SANDER by
the Grand Jury. 1t was the DR.. Huston
case of sueing the Baltimore American for
libel, over again, and with similar object
in view.
The following extracts are from the re-
port of the Herald's correspondent, who
was sent here to gather the facts and who
interviewed the girl. The facts as stated
of the minister's coming here and the esti-
nation placed upon him by all, are mainly
true, but little highly colored by the wri-
ter for effect.
"Several years ago Rev. Henry Mathews
came here from Virginia to take charge of
this congregation. He made 4 favorable
impression upon our people from the first,
which eventually ripened in a strong feel
ing of regard and affection for him by all
his own congregation and many outside Of
it. He was especially admired for his great
purity of character. With the lady MEM
bers of his congregation, and. in fact, of
the whole place, he was regarded as inca
pable of doing wrong, and the gentlemen
were equally euegistic of his sterling pur-
ity of thought and action. He had a wife
who was regarded as a fitting companion
for one SO ernnently good and able; but no
offspring had been the result of their union.
Every year that Mr.. Mathews ministered
here the attachment for him grew stronger.
until doubt if there ever was pastor so
universally regarded with esteem by all
classes. For twelve or fourteen years he
had been here, and life with him and his

THE FATAL GLASS.
ny enkcR MELBOURNE.

Only one glass; one sparkling glass,
10 your lips the prison Of poi SONS pass
A deadly serpent within il lies,
Aud who ever drinks Ut the mixture di9s.
'1s u lingering death and yc deeai 1t sfar
And hear not the rush Of iis mighty car
'rill your forms lie crushed, and IL passes on
Another soul by the tempter won.
Oh God above me. Is this the fate
That ieth for those have loved in waitf
Must stand beside them with folded hands,
As the sunless sculptured marble stands .
Brothers, companions and IrienGs, pray
List to my pleading while yot lis day,
That one gio@ more, which 80 oft you drink
10 the deepest hell your souls will sink,
Night comes on, oh brothers depart,
Leave with pure unsulied heart
YUu that have mothers aud fathers dear
You that have sisters and brothers near,
And you who have folded ds0rer yet
Close to your heart, you cannot forget
How like blade Of keeuest steel
Tdis poison drop in their cup must feol.
Oh, be men be not simply tools,
Dupes to the "spiriI Of fire" that rules.
Too many brave hearts, too many bumes
Under the sway Of the tempter comes
Some Of our bravest, fairest and best,
BY hearts the trusst aud luved ones blest,
Are sinking daily and hourly down,
Away from heaven aud the Masters crown.
"0ne glass more, only one glass more,
Then | will turn from the lemptcrs duor."
Oh, my brahers, come back, cUme back
Your feet have chosen dangerous track.
Let II alone forever and aye,
Go from the darkness aud sin, away,
kneel IN the silence upon the sod
And ask for strength from Almighty God.
Is Il place in that den OF sin
That yOur pure, trus luved ones can enter in
iDO with u sister unstained aud tar,
WDnId yon welcome her proudly, gladly there
FIT IL for her ur leave tue place,
For IL stamps you only with deep disgrace.

Leave with a pure uusullied heart.
