THE TRAGEDY IN THE LITTLE FAMILy.-A
Winchester, Va, correspondent of the Balti-
more Gazette ays:-"Oscar P. Little, who was
tired here for fratricide at the last term of the
circuit court, and sentenced to seven years in
the penitentiary at Richmond city, has reached
his quarters, and at last accounts, like Stokes
and Boss Tweed, was about to be assigned an
easy pace in the prison hospital, he being a
physician. Lycurgus, his brother, is still here
in Jail, awaiting the hearing and decision of tbs
court of appeals on the exceptions to the rulings
at the trial. These exceptions most probably
will not be argued until next fall A writ OF
error has been awarded by the superior court
Much importance, ii is understood, is attachei
to the fact that the record of facts proved fails
TO state, as one of these facts proved, that the
crime was committed in Clarke county, Va
On the trial of Oscar the defense scarcely re-
served an exception, and none that they deemed
eff any VALIDITY"

JANAUscHRK.-The play of Deborah" in
which JaDauschek appeared at FOrd's opera
house last night, seems a fayorite with many
leading actresses because the title role gives
them an opportunity to portray the working of
the mCst violent passions, as well as the most
tender emotions, which sgitate the sO-called
gentle sex. Love, hate. confidence, jealousy,
revenge, and forgiveness alternately control
the prosecuted heroine of the drama; and to
depict these with the gradual changes from one
extreme to another Is a task which many essay
but few accomplish. Among these few Janaus
chek Is in the front rank. To night she repeat,
her wonderful dual representation of "Iady
DedlOck' and "HOrtense" in Chesney Wolf
and, a. the performance is for her benefit low
ers Of good acting shOsld fla every seat in the
house.

A SENSATIONAL Story SPoILeD-we are
informed on good authority that the "cave
murder case in Rockland county" which has
furnished a morning paper with q subject for
sensational articles for the last few DAYS is
doubtless Christmas "sell," gotten up for some
purpose not yet ascertained. AS the story went,
bloody tracks were found leading to a cave in
the Haverstraw mountains, and the supposition
was that a murder had been committed and the
body hidden there. The sheriff has now been
put in charge of the premises, aud the c0ro-
ners, who have nothing to do till body is dis
covered, have been ordered away. The hole in
which the body is supposed 10 be will be drained

THREE Times CRRTAIN.-with regard to the
next Kentucky Library Gift Concert there are
three things intallably certain: First, that il
will take place on the 3lst of March, lust As
sure as the 3lst day of March arrives: second
that the drawing will be full one without par
tition or abatement, and third, that those par
ties who delay the purchase of their tickets too
long Will be apt to lose all interest in the con.
cert. Never before in the history of such en-
terprises has so wonderful an interest been
manifested and such immense sums of money
daily received. Friends of the enterprise
abroad can serve themselves and aid the man
agelnent by sending In their orders at once.
By making early purchases, the loss of interes'
TO the buyer is as nothing in consideration OF
the advantages it will enable the m Management
TO give him in a complete, wel-arTanged and
satisfactory drawing.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR VALUABLEs.-Call
and examine the fire and burglar proof vauIts

OF securities, jewels, silver ware or other yalu-
aoies. Rents from ten to sixty dollars per an
mum, according To size. No business man can
afford to do without them. Take warning from
the Chicago and Boston fires.
A HOUSEHOLD REMEDY.-No family should
be without some eficacious remedy for the cure
OF affections so universally prevalent as coughs
colds, sore threat, whooping cough and Group
some remedy, too, which can be relied on as
safe, sure and certain. DIR. Wistar's Balsam OF
Wild Cherry combines the desideratum.
