manager Of the Gift Concerts in aid of the
Public Library of Louisville, in that State,
will do us a favor not to tempt us more
with advertisements Of that institution.
The laws of the State forbid the publica-
tion of such advertisements, and do not
discriminate between one of this kind,
which is honest and for good purpose, and
shyster concerns. We know that some one
will on the Both of November next, bag
$25OOOO andothers smaller sums, and that
the money will be promptly paid, as has
been the case in the four preceding ones !:
but the law will not allow us to publish
their advertisement. Keep them away
from us.

~ The Modes for the fall, and prepara-
tions for the wlnt er season were never more
brilliant, and never more sensibly adapted to
universal wants, tastes, and means than they
are now For the fashionable belle, and the
grand dame, there are complete toilets, and
out and indoor garments in preparation of sur
passing beauty and elegance. Aprons, skirts,
cloaks, are covered with embroidery. Black
materials sparkle with black jet beads gray
ones with steel beads, blush gray with blue
steel beads, and white with white Jet. Each
part of the costume is worked with a special
design composed to suit its form, although
uniform on the whole. The fronts of the
bodice have their design, the back has its own,
and 1t is the same with the basques, revers,
pockets. The embroidery is worked with eth
er wool or silk of the same color as the ma

II. A. Day, who every night deposits his
watches and most valuable jewelry in the
safe of one of the banks in that city, was
taking his watches to the bank, which is
just square from his store, few nights

When he arrived nearly opposite the
bank couple Of men sprang upon him, and
while one struck him in the car with a
billy" tho other picked up the box in
which were the watches, sixty-five in num-
Der, and made off to the west at rapid
pace, his confederate following. Marshal

CB- Exemplary damages have been CIV
en- by Baltimore jury, in case in which
man shot another by accident. The de-
fendant playfully took up gun, entertain
ing the common idea that no gun can pos
sibly be loaded, and playfully pointed it at
his friend. AS it always happens in such
cases, the gun was loaded, and he shot and
almost killed his friend, only in fun of
course. The jury showed their apprecia-
ton of such genial humor by giving YER
dict for $4,000 damages A few more such
verdicts will have the effect of lessening
the frequency of similar accidents.
CB- A New York man recently met with

throwing down small packages Of goods.
His glossy black silk hat was mark for
one of the descending bundles, and in a
moment it was battered over his nose and
eyes. In his confusion he relieved himself
by dropping two valuable books and set
of artificial teeth, all of which articles
were stolen by some adroit thieves who
took advantage Of his dazed condition.
CB- A Baltimore paper says Willie Cor

for the length Of over half a square. A
colored man who witnessed the Occurrences

ACCORDING to the Freemans Journal
Gen. Sherman is not q Catholic, but when
he courted Miss Ewing he was required,
before Father Ryder could marry them, to
promise as an officer and gentleman that
he would never interfere with his wife in
children should be brought up Catholics.
If the above is true, it shows that Gen.
Sherman has not got as much spunk as we
gave him credit for, or he would have got
somo other man to perform tho marriage
ceremony, before making so foolish prom

A Remarkable Accident.

The Passaic Rolling Mill in Paterson was
nearly destroyed last week by the bursting
of the fly Wheel mass of metal twenty
four feet in diameter, weighing twenty
seven tons. The beam that was going
through the rollers had dragged, and it got
across the collar" throwing a strain of
240 horse power on the spindle that con-
meets the roller with the engine, breaking
it and freeing the fly wheel, which in
creased its velocity from 60 to 300 revolu-
tions minute, bursting it at once. One of
the segments weighing three tons went
through the roof and smashed large iron
crane in its descent. Another piece about
the same size went through the roof and
fell into the mill about 300 feet away,
making two large breaks in the roof
Another piece fell on cart in the yard, de-
molishing it without injuring the horse or
the driver. Over one hundred men were at
work in the mill, and their escape without
injury was miraculous.

Mr.. Sawyer having refused to tell where
the keys were the robbers nearly strangled
him with the gag and a twist of rope around
the neck. Finally Mr.. Sawyer told them
that the keys we're in the post Office lock
box.
The men then placed rope around Mr..
Sawyer's neck and took him to the post Of
fee. A hole was cut in the glass, the sash
raised and the keys secured. Mr.. Sawyer
was forced to go and open the bank, and all
the funds, notes and collaterals were taken
out.

GB- The change in the time of holding
elections in this State will exercise vast
good, at least in one direction-that of pre-
venting the colonization of voters upon the
border counties of New York, New Jersey
and Pennsylvania. 1t has been the Gus
tom with both political parties to import
and oolonize voters from one State to
the other, for the purpose of swelling the
vote and increasing majorities in counties
where the wires could be successfully ma
nipulated to that end. The separate days
upon which elections were formerly held
afforded them an opportunity of doing this,
without fear of detection, and gangs of
these nomadic suffragists were regularly
crossed over the lines in the interest of
wire-pullers of one party or the other. The
elections this year, occurring on the same
day in each of these States, will conhne the
operations of repeaters to their own-or at
least one--locality, and the chances for
open fraud will be materially lessened.-
Majorities in border counties will show to
what extent the vote of Dem ocrats and
Republicans alike has been fraudulently
swollen in the past.
