A series Of Buruiaries at Isra.ndon,


Brandon seems to be a fayorite haunt
of craftsmen. 1t is but short time
since the. jewelry store of Charles Whit
aker. left town one night almost in toto,
and we now have to chronicle a similar
attempt upon the premises of Z. a.
Hamilton, though fortunately not at
tended with the same success. It seems
that about half past two o'clock, Friday
morning, the village watchman, Mr.
Charles Graves, discovered a light in the
clothing and provision store of Il. A.
Hamilton. Agt., and thinking there
might be something wrong. rather indis-
ereetly, as some think, shook the front
door, and called out who's There.
What do you want, etc The light
then disappeared, and he walked around
to the back door and tried it and fidding
it fastened walked away. He soon re-
turned to the door the second time, and
called the clerk, and they then discoy-
cred that q large light of glass in the
rear of the store had been removed and
a burglary committed. The aperture from
which the glass was removed was large
enough to admit man readily and they
had thus. entered and escaped with ease.
On q search of the premises being insti-
tuted it was discovered that goods to the
amount of $3.50 had been distracted and
In lieu thereof were kindly left a Canada

last but not least. flask of gin. There
were also left pair of stockings and 3

much as if intended for use as q set of

Political advancement. john Hancock
Is regarded by many as model man !;
but his characteristics were not what
are regarded as essential now IN the

heart and head; better governed than
ever before; not so wide difference
between the masses and the leaders.

bigotry. We allow men to differ from
us, and still find something in them to
love.

MADRID, Nov. 90.
The Spanish cabinet has agreed to de-
liver to the United States government
the steamship Virginus and all persons
remaining alive who were captured with
her, leaving the question whether the
seizure of the vessel was legal to be SET
tied hereafter by mixed tribunal. The
question whether damages shall be paid
to the families or relatives Of the prison
ers who were shot is also To be settled IL
a similar manner. This decision was mol
arrived at by the government before II
had confdentially consulted with the
powers of Europa, and was informed by
all of them that reparation was due for
the capture of the steamer and the exc
cution of the captiYes. The decision IS
also in conformity with the opinions OF
leading Spanish statesmen of all parties
to whom the question was submitted Dt

England raises the rate of discount this
brings but little coin into Great Britain
until after the bank contraction has seri-

products and commodities. Coin rarely

from Australia, California and all the
other States of the Union, where the
rates OF interest generally rule high. to

Farmers complain of hard times,
but they are getting the best end Of
things this fall and winter, though it
will probably be hard work to convince
the average OF them that he is better off
this season than artisans, mechanics and
traders; For whatever he sells he gets
as good prices as for long time-butter,
potatoes, poultry, beef, etc., being about
as high as ever-when on the other
band he can buy manufactured goods of
almost every sort a great deal cheaper
than he could In September.

assures him that they are ''both artists

enters into the profession of engineer
ing. He fortifies cities, builds great
roads across the Alps, and other great
feats of engineering, and becomes q
rough and naughty man. The reputation
of Raphael was now sounding in his ears,
he returned to his studio, a prince
came in one day and asked him
to make sketch of beautiful horse
he had outside, he made a perfect one
in twenty minutes and charged the
prince 80 pieces of gold for it. The
prince argued that he should not charge
so much for twenty minutes work: he
replied that it cost him twenty years of
pain, labor and poverty TO do it. Flor
