DARBY. Dec 0.
Last night, this town and its vicinity were Wis
tied by burglars. They broke into the Darby
aud Sharon Hill stations, on the p W. & H.
II but fortunately did not succeed in getting
more than $500 in changa. They strewed the
tickets aud papers around generally, aud reliev-
ed the agent at Darby and his assistant of three
coats.
About the same time an attempt was made.
we presume by the same parties, to enter a
trimming store in Darby, but thev were fright
ened on. The office OF the Messrs. Shields, and
Gibson Bros, grain aud al dealers. was also
entered. but nothing found to pay for the trou-
BILE. We learn the thieves were conveyed by a
horse and wagon, and went about the neighbor-
hood of their operations in a leisurely and bust
ness-like manner.

plates are msde Of wood, and the teeth consist
Of tacks driven up from under the side. 4 pieoe
of wax is heated and pressed into the roof Of the
mouth. It is then taken out and hardened BY
putting it into cold water. Another piece Of
heated war is applied to the impression, and
after being pressed into shape, is hardened: 4
piece OF wood is then roughly cut into the denr.
ed form, and the model. having been smoared
with red paint, is applied to it. Where they
touch each other mark is left by the paint Ihls
is cut away till they touch evenly all over.
Sharks teeth. bits Of ivory, or stone,
for. teeth, are set into the wood and re-
tanned in position by being strung on .
thread which is secured on each end BY peg
driven into the hole where the thread makes its
exit from the base. Iron or copper tacks are
driven into the ridge to serve for H1astioating
purposes, the unequal wear Of the wood and
metal keeping up the desired roughness. Their
full sets ansWer admirably for the mastication
OF food, but, Is they do not improve the looks,
they are worn but little for ornament. The or
binary service OF 4 set Of teeth.is about fiye
years, but they frequently last much longer.
ALI full upper sets are retained by atmospheric
pressurs. This principle is coeIai with the art.

thirty negroes had all they could we'll attend
to to keep up with his new oAths and roll on
the casks. Without any cessation they
bobbed from the boat to the shore, and from
the shore back to the boat, and all the while
that Mississippi elocutionist danced around and
swore. When got on the boat sat down on
my baggage and watched that man.
''Being resident Of New England, I thought
I knew something Of :wickednoss, but was, mis-
taken. The negroes were uniformly dressed in
pants, shirt, and hat. Some Of the hats were
ornamentcd with different colored ribbons; ;
others again contained but simple brass plate
the trademark OF = retired fruit can. Beauty
unadorned is adorned the most. +" They were
driven like sheep, frat to the shore, then back
to the boat. The least hesitation, the slightest
tnisstep, WAS noted by the orator and promptly
incorporated into his discourse. He couldn't
hayo been more familiar we're they his Own
fathers, which it is not likely they we're.
'After getting through ct the dock, the boat
moved up to the coal yard. The coal was
brought on in boxes With handles at each end
Each box contained two and half bushels, and
was carried by two men. Six hundred bushels
we're thus taken on. The same amount Of hustle
and yehemence occurred in this transaction.
The men sweat like April, and appeared to be
ready to drop at every trip, but tho Mate hurled
tonics ut them, and kept them up. When his
