The Standard says that file of the
Belmont Farmer, of 1S47, shows that
the price of butter in those days in
Bridgeport was 10 cents, eggs 5 cents,
-four s4,25 per bbl., hams 10cents, and
other things in proportion. There were
railroad projects in Those days too!

There was a livery stable and tailor
here then. The war with Mexico was

For year or more it has been pain
fully transparent to many of the vic
TINS hereabouts that plan of system
attic and persistent thievery was being
practiced in this community. Light
fingers seemed to cling with equal
tenacity to log chain and grain OF
wheat; to the contents of confection-
ary or barrel of vinegar. Suspicion
has fixed itself upon several occasions
upon different parties, but as often it
was not demonstrated that the sus-
picion was correct. On Friday night,
however, raid was made on the
meat house of our teutonic friend,
Joseph King, resulting in the taking
and carrying away" of most of his
meat. Now, Joe was so much incensed
at this ungentlemanly, unkind and un-
christian like treatment, that he did
not allow The matter to rest with mere
suspicious, SO he swore out warrant
for portion of the family of one Mon
chan, residing short distance north
east of town. The warrant was placed
in the hands of officer Rice who lit
down upon the Monahans in jiffy,
consisting of mother, daughter, and
two 'ducks" of boys; search of the
house followed, and while the officer
was in an upper story, the male
thieves departed in peace. The search
revealed sack of about twenty pounds |
of assorted candies, One-half bushel of
green coffee, three bushels of wheat, |
four axes, number of hams, seventy
five pounds sausage, stay and butt
chains, &C., which are now in the pos
session of the officer awaiting identif1-
cation. Joseph Monahan was arrest
I'd on Tuesday; he will have hearing I
before Justice Neiswanger, to-day,
when he will probably be committed

AN engine on the NJ. P. Railroad
went skating last week in Noble cOun-
ty. The water had overfiown the road
bed and frozen hard enough to bear the
engine. The engineer wasn't used to
managing steam skating machiae, so
it ran off the track, wrecking one car.
No lives lost.
