SHOT AT HM.-Tuesday night burglar
entered the dwelling of Charles MeClaren,
No. so Melpomene street, and was SO clumsy
in his operations as to waken the inmates.
A shot was fired at the intruder, but as he
did not stop to make explanations or die,
the bullet must have proved a stray shot.
Shooting at active burglars is shorthand
way to rid us of their presence.

In that statement the introduction of an
act authorizing the appropriation OF 3,O00,-

as much. / desire, in justice to Mr.. Wilt,
to make the correction, and will feel obliged
for the privilege of using the REPUBLICAN
as a medium to do so.
Very respectfully,

Conor and Adams.

The New World is handsome and
spirited paper just started in Philade!-
phia rs an organ Of the straight Demo-
cratic movement. Its theory Of the posi-
bility Of electing O'Conor and Adams is
IS follows:
Mr.. Greeley lit is now IS certain as
anything future can be said to be GER
tainl cannot receive the vote Of more
than one State.
To insist on continuing him as . can
didate will tc tantamount to insuring
the reelection Of General Grant.
The National Executive Committee
appointed by the convention which
nomiuated Mr.. Greeley ought ct once ia
| take steps to withdraw him as candi-
date for President; then tho election o.
| O'Conor and Adams would be inevitable
We understand that efforts have been
made to induce that committee to adopt
this obvious dictate Of policy and pa.
triotism.
They will probably, however, post
pone such action until after the October
elections Of the 9th proximo. Then i
they do not drop Mr.. Greeley the Demo
cratic masses will, and rally unani-
mously to the support Of O'Conor ant
Adams.
