CITY
Let Us Be Calm.

The occurrences OF the past few days,
the incendiary fires, the presence in and
around private houses and grounds OF
tramps, ard the evidences Of the prowi-
ines of sneak thieves and housebreakers,
have set our people on the q'tt ttre and
made good many men and women
and children. for that matter-very ner-
vous indeed. This nervousness has had
the good effect of making our people
very watchful and very suspicious OF the
doings and sayings of the many stfahG-
ers who arc congregated here anu on
Sunday night the town was very thof-
ouehlv patrolled. We hope that TINS
strong night watch will be kept up Tor
some weeks at least; also that the feSh-
lar.police force will be increased SO that
property and persons on the less ire
auented streets may be somewhat better
protected. But We counsel our citizens
to calmness. 1t is imperative that We
should be watchful and Slgllant. ont We
should be careful lest our apprehcnslons
overcome our better Judgment and lead
US to the doing of things that had better
be left undone. If those VINO have the
mower to direct the course of popular
excitement take the proper steps much
can be done to allay the existing feverish
state Of the public mind and give reas-
surance to their families and nei5hbors.
Moreover, in all their proceedings our
our citizens should move with delibera-
ton and ccolness, even in The event OF
a sudden increase Of the popular excite
1nen., doing whatever they do with n
well weighed determination to abide by
acts and conclusions. We need hardly
add that it is not the part OF prudence
to leave any dwelling house unoccupied
these days of danger and alarm,

Another In>.na..ry Fire.

A dwelling house situated on the
corner Of Robinson and Phillips streets,
the residence Of MIR. and Mrs. Lamour-
FAUX, was set on fire between and )
o'clock on Sunday morning and together
with its furniture, destroyed. The walls
are standing, but they are black and
charred and might as well be ashes SO
far as any remaining value is concerned.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lamoureaux We're out OF
town at the time, and the incendiaries
had things all their own way. There is
every indication Of the use of coal oil on
the floors, from one end Of the house to
the other, for the floors are burned
through very rare occurrence where a
building is not wholly destroy ed-while
the walls in front and PARKWAY on the
sides are left. Moreover, when the
first spectators got there they found
oil burning on the back steps snd
in the yard Also they found the back
door open. The house was elegantly
furnished, and in the parlor were piano
and some valuable family pictures.
Nothing was left of these save their
blackened Misunderstanding except the
inner arrangements of the piano, which
responds faithfully to the touching Of
the ivory keys. The loss must have
been in the neighborhoed of 1000.
What the insurance amounts to We have
not ascertained. The night, fortunately,
was still, and no other property was
damaged or endangered. This was
about the most viilainous, cold-blooded
and deliberate piece of incendiarism we
have ever known Of. The engines were
promptly on hand.
2, S. We have since learned that the
house and wearing apparel were insured
for about $1,000, and the piano for
something, we couldn't learn how much.

Woop TROUBLES. The Ivancovich
Brothers make complaint to US that
certain party living in an adjoining
county has been erasing their marks
from some woodpiles of their own stand
ing in the Mexican yard at Empire and
substituting therfor some marks of his
own. And they further state that this
party has made sale of their wood to
certain concern doing business in this
city. They state the facts to us much
more explicitly than this, but this is as
near to calling names as we choose to
come at present. In the meantime the
Iyancovich Brothers have all advertise
ment in another column warning all
whom it may concern not to purchase
their wood without their consent. See
their advertisement.
A PEDLAR with black box and some
cheap jewelry for sale has been making
himself most too free in entering houses

dressing young ladies on the street. II
he will take our advice he will go slow

From the Herald of Health.l
The question is not how cheaply we
can manage to keep soul and body to-
gether, but how can we bring both body
and soul 10 the highest condition of vi
tality and power? To live is something
more than to exist. How can we live
and affection, conscience, sympathy, i'm
agination, reverence, as we'll as the ply
steal system? All pinching and restrict
ing of died is injurious in the long run.
The bean man, the bean-bread- oman, the
one-meal- a-day man, the man who goes
mousing about the world intent on cheap
ness, never makes the scale Of power
kick the beam. He wastes more than he
saves. He checks an income, instead of
checking an outgo. The men who makes
the most ado over the petty prudencies
of life, and perpetually obtrude their par
simonious practice on public notice, never
amount to any thing, or do anything of
account. Man wants all he can use, as
simulate, organize, reproduce. The things
that strengthen and beautify his essen
tial manhood, that enrich his sentiments
and refine his sensibilities, that ennoble
his intellect and enlarge the scope Of his
being and the horizon of his possibilities,
belong to him by right, as the crown and
purple belong to royalty.
Every man ought to aspire and labor
to live generously, and have comforta-
bletand tasteful home, and surround him
self and his family with everything that
tends to increase health and happiness,
and create an atmosphere of intelligence
and refinement. Beauty, elegance, art,
society, music, are our birthright. 1t is
not waste to spend what one has for things
that foster noble pride, heighten self
respect, beautify the body and cultivate
the mind. 1t is true economy that spends
something for books and pictures, for oc-
casional glimpses of nature, and the en-
tertainment of the stage. The charities
and humanities are rot luxuries, that the
poorest man on earth should deny him
self of them. The loving, tru<tful,
adjoining sympathy that forgets his own
wants and meagre resources, and breaks
the costliest thing it has on the head OF
the one beloved, is not recklessness to
+ be censured, but devotion to be com
mended for its divine nobility. Saving
may be ant-like. and beaver-like, but sac
rifice is God-like.

ALEXANDER CLARK.
a Missouri Congressman and am
Incident Ina the Career OF
u. -. Grant.

A late number Of the Chimney Corner
contains a striking likeness of Hon.
Erastus Wells, one of the most popular
gentlemen in the lower house of congress.
The sketch of his career also given, shows
how successfully Mr.. Wells fought his
way up from stage and omnibus driver to
his present high position, he being also
one of the most wealthy and influential
residents of the Culture Great City"
This seems, by the way, not an inappro-
pirate place to refer to little incident in
Mr.. Wells early career in St. Louis, in
which the present chief magistrate Of this
nation figured conspic@ously. More than
twenty years ago, one terribly cold and
stormy night in January, Mr.. Wells was
driving his stage home from Carondelet,
(near which burg farmer Grant then
lived, to St. Louis, Il distance of seven
miles. On the road Mr. w. met a horses and
country wagon proceeding leisurely along
without Il driver. He next discovered
lying on the road side, the debris of what
appeared as a small stock of groceries.
Further on he espied what afterwards
proved to be a good sized, old-fashioned
brown jug the cork was out and there
was the very best evidence that the afore-
said jug had very recently contained some
whisky. The last object further on and
only a short distance from that point, Mr.
Wells discovered was the body of man
lying on the side OF the road. Jumping
from his stage he found the owner of the
wagon reposing comfortably, in a snow
bank slightly under the weather from
having imbibed too freely of the contents
of his brown jug. Mr., Wells thinking
the man might perish if left there all
night, took him on to his stage, picked
up the things along the road, and landed
the farmer and traps safely at home some
miles distant. Thisis no imaginary sketch.
The individual thus taken care Of is now
president Of these United States, and the
incident aptly illustrates the marvellous
changes that occur in the career CT men
who rise to eminence i'll this country.
Grant never forgot this act of kindness
on the part of Wells, and to day the
latter, although Democrat, has more in
fuence with the executive than all the
balance Of the Missouri delegation in con-
gress combined. Avalanche, Silver City,

a ChiIn'sEdea.

The Pottsyille PENN Miners Jour
nal says: Several evenings since a
Pottsville mother was showing her bright
little six-year old Dore's Paradise Lost.
The child was greatly interested in the
magnificent pictures, and also in the
story the mother told by the way of ex-
PLANTATION. Unlike the major portion of
children, who would have heard the
strange, eventful story, and then turned
open-mouthed to thoughts Of bread and
blackberry jam, the child of our little
narrative pondere1 on what she had
heard. The result of her brown study
was somewhat as follows: Mamma,
s'pose YOU and papa and ME had been IN
the Garden of Eden, and you and papa
had eaten the forbidden fruit and |
hadn't, then he and you would have
been turned out and | wouldn't. Do
YOU know what I'd a-done? I'd a.
pitched flowers over the fence to you.
The mother told the child that the angel
would not have permitted any communi-
cation between parents and child under
any circumstances Then I'd eat the
fruit and go with you, said the child.
