ROBBERY BY THE WHOLESALE.
Eastern New York Overrun with Burglars

The highlands of the Hudson are not
alone afflicted with the thieving operations
Of gangs of burglars and highway robbers.
There seems 10 be an organized system of
robbery throughout the entire eastern part
of New York state, and the operators are
becoming so bold, and the legal authorities
so unsuccessful i'll REFRESHING the frequent
robberies, that in many localities the cit-
zens are forming vigilance COMMITTEES to
maintain a surveillance over their commu-
mites and deal summary with any depre-
dators that may be apprehended. The
Mohawk valley has been ovcrrun with
tranps for the past two weeks, and it is
the general opinion that they are RESPONSE
BILE for the many burglarics that have oc-
CURED. So scientifically have some of
these been committed, there can be no
doubt that they are the work of tramps.
| The latter are in many cases professional
| thieves, securing the country disguised as
mere s,rolers, and acting in concert in the
| rObberies upon secret and well matured
plans. Early Sunday morning, daring
/
| flee of Herkimer county, in the village of
Mohawk. The treasurer. who sleeps in
the same building IN which the Office is
situated, hearing noise about 8 o'clock
got up and found a man at work cutting a
hole through the tin roof, and raising his
pistol fired, but without effect, the burglar
making his escape over the other side Of
the roof, leaving his tools behind him. The
plan of the robber was, no doubt, first to
gain entrance to the sleeping apartment Of
the treasurer, abstract the keys to the vault
and safe, and then make his way to the in
terror. There was large sum of money
in the vault. The same morning, John
Jenny's house in Ilion was entered and
robbed Of several hundred dollars in money
aud four gold watches. Every sleeping
room in the house was visited, the clothing
of each inmate being rtied. No one in the
house was awakened. That night the drug
store Of Wing & IIoogeman, and the hool
and shoe store of Peter Carpenter, IN Fort
Edward were robbed of large stock OF
goods. About midnight on Friday night
two men, with masked faces, entered the
residence OF w. II. Newkrk at Fort
Hunter, in Montgomery county, and
while one of them held pistol pointed a
Mr. and Mrs. Ncwkirk, rs they lay IN led
the other ransacked the house. They Sc
cured about 800 in money and jewelry
which they cooly counted IN the prcsenc,
of their victims, and then, binding them
locked them III their rooms and made thei
escape. Other outrages of this kind ar,
reported in that and neighboring counties
and the people begin to think that vigil
shce committee might fin work to do.

0 years, was drowned at the north dock.

Marriage.

Does il not seem strange that men con-
nightly to their desolate and cherries
apartments, when they have it in their
power to provide for themselves happy,
cheerful homes? Why IS it? Ask some Of
our shrcwd bachelors, and they will al
swcr, that owing to the erroneous system of
female education of the present day, it is
extremely difficult to find a woman who is
in any way calculated to make a home
happy, and that they do not desire to run
the risk of dumping out of the frying pan
into the fire.
The fact is, young ladies of the present
day are not educated for the purpose of &C.
cupying woman's thrsn, as the ruler and
governor of a home. They are prepared
to adorn the parlor, the party, the opera
and the ball room, and arc not intructed in
household duties, which every woman,
high and low, rich and poor, should under
stand and be able to perform. The result
is, that women so educated become, in the
majority of instances, frivolous butterflies
of fashion and are wholly untitled, as
wives, to make a home happy.
When married they expect TO be waited
upon, and consequently, must have a
troupe of servants around them to whose
care they leave the entire charge of the
household, while they pursue q reckless
course of pleasure. This is not confined
| to the rich but the evil is seen in the mid
die walks of life, and SO general has it be-
come, that the idea seems to prevail that
as soon as the marriage knot is tied the
necessity for exertion and labor on the part
| of the woman ceases. No matter what
her conditions were before, she must be
well dressed ard have servants to wait up
on her while her husband tolls hard to sup
port her pretensions.
We are not in favor of making drudge
of the wife but we do think that where
there is necessity for the husband to la
Dor that she should, as far as she is able,
share his tolls, and by strict economy, make
his burthens as light as possible Let this
be impressed on the minds of our young la
dies, let them learn to wait on themselves,
let them be instructed in all domestic du-
ties, let them fully appreciate the positions
of wife and aspire to fill it with honor to
themselves and happiness to those around
them. Let all this be done and croakine
bachelors will no longer have it In their
power to say that woman. as the partner
of man, is like the grapevine which coils
around the trunk and limbs of the oak blast.

SUMMER COMPLAINT.

IT was first brought to the notice of the pub
lie In It's present form during the RACES or the
Cholera in the United States In 1s4T. 1t be-
came known In veryfew months and was I'M
questonably the most popular antidote against
that most dreaded disease which was used at
the time, or which has been discovered at any
subsequent period. Indeed, IL seems to have
been the ultimatum OF medical research In
that direction. During the late war IL was
used In the hospitals and camps OF our soldiers
suffering from chronic dlarrhGa, from the
Potomac to the Rio Grande, and from the Ohio
TO the Gulf. Since the close OF the war thous-
ands OF returned soldiers have written me from
their homes desiring small guam, tiles OF IL for
their friends, and testirying in unqualified
terms to Its merits.
We might append a hundred pages OF certl-
ficates, but single trial of the medicine VIII
be more conclusive to the suffering than all OF
these.
In buying the above medicine, be careful
that druggists do not deceive you by attempt
ing to force upon you, In place OF this, some
worthless nostrum of their own, or an inferior
Subterfugp, upon which they Will make more
money. 1t your nearest druggist does not
keep 1t, send your money to the proprietor
with name OF state and town distinctly written
and you will receive IL, securely packed. by ex-

THE RAILROAD WAR.

A. was to have been expected at the
beginning of this contest, all the great
trunk lines having their eastern termlni
nj New York have been drawn in. The
adherence of the Pennsylvania Contra!
and Erie to the Saratoga compact has
been openly'sct aside by the former, and
orders have been issued to It's agents 10
resume the freight schedule which was
in operation prior to the Saratoga con-
ference. IL !, further stated that similar
orders have been issued by the New
York Central and Erie Roads and there
j, no doubt but that this i, the result OF
united action of the three, against the
Baltimore and Ohio. This latter road
claims that the adherence of the Others to
the Saratoga agreement has been, tor'ome
time. merely nominal, and the announce

only u matter of form. 1t claims fur
