EEIzING DIsrILLERY.-Officers of the

ned that distillery was in operation at
\, loj Barracks street, and after consider
10 search the place was found, far in the
tsrior, Just where nobody would expect to
ID much of anything. All in and around
building indicated poverty and disgrace
be Of the deputies fortunately had a
croscope in his pocket, and when a per-
me of spirits arose he took the instrument
d found stili-one just large enough to
i IN vest pocket and not notice it. An
Frenchman said 1t was his, and objected,
. mild manner, to have it disturbed. The
Ptsrn was small keg, the worm consisted
about three feet OF lead pipe, and the
pols looked like an old hat of last sum-
Or.
The owner declared, and earnestly, too,
Ut he used the machine to make kind of
N out of which he manufactured cologne,
hich is probably tho truth. A keeper was
hced in charge, and during the night pur-
ased bread and some cheese. He shared
u the distiller and another person, and
dging by the manner of their deyouring
provender they might have tackled
pond-hand mattress and masticated it
PLY. The old Frenchman did not seem
understand that he had been guilty of an
ormous crime, and was perfectly willing

tic contrivance was the only thing he had
support himself, and was not conscious
Rt he had violated any law. The traps,
rth about $40, were sent to the Custom
use in triumph.

think will do to tell.
At convention of clergymen, recently
held in Syracuse, and, after the evening 5
meal, it was proposed that each, in turn,
should entertain the company with such
remarks as might bedeemed appropriate.
When it came to the turn of Mr.. Water
house, he related dream, which he said
he had had few nights before. In his
dream he went to Heaven and his pic.
ture of the golden streets, the rivers OF
shining water, the seraphic choir, and SO
forth, was Interestingly vivid.
When he had concluded, Rev. Mr..

penurious habits-approached and.aked,

FROM TAYLOR.
Hon. a. r. Caperton-The Capital
The Crops Revival.

Editors of the Register:
Not seeing anything in your valuable
and highly appreciated paper from Tay-
lor county, l will endesvor to give you q
few items if you think them worthy Of
space in your columns.
We are highly pleased with the choice
of Hon. Allen 7. Csperton to represent
our little State in the Senatorial chair.
He will have large field of labor in
which TO work, and We feel confident that
he will ably discharge his duty. We can
safely say what great many sister
States cannot, We send Senator with
out remorse, regret or shame, not II
single stain rests on his character; he
will represent US with dignity and great
personal ability.
We are glad that the Legislature has,
at last, removed the capital to more
convenient place, and located it where
the people can the more readily and
with convenience get to it. Although
Wheeling is not situated in the centre of
the State, we do not know of more
suitable place for the capital, as she has
the convenience of railroads, and ranks
among the great manufacturing cities in
the Union.
Our wheat crop is not Is promising as
it was last season, but we think the yield
will meet the demand.
We haveIhad an extremely cold winter
and feed is getting very scarce and some
of our farmers who have large amount
of stock on hand look pale as the storm
approaches.
We have had a glorious revival of re-
ligion at the Boothsvillc NJ. Beforehand

away to attend conference. Buttho good
and faithful members of the church, and
oi the different denominations of the
churches joined together in one united
effort and continued to work in the vine
yard of the Lord, until the meeting was
one of decided success. We are truly
glad to say that tho meeting has caused
Boothsville to be once more the moral
heritage Of man. Al its fair sons and
daughters have lately embraced Christi
anity. May they be faithful.
Squire Wilson, of BoothSville is got
ting up petition to prohibit the sale
Of intoxicating liquors in that place.
We hope he will be successful. We will
say nothing more at present, but wait and
see how this looks in print, and II 1t
reads well we may try it again, and are
now waiting to hear from the faithful
REGISTER. Yours respectfully,
