our old friend, Mr.. ID. MCLIsH, of
Morgan township, to Judge KENT.
Mr.. WooDRUFF is at Grand Island,
Howard county, Nebraska. He
writes of the destitution in that
country from grasshoppers. He says:
"There are folks in this county
who have been without bread from
four to ten days. We have no
money, as it was all spentin coming
here and building. We will be
thankful for anything in the shape of
clothing, flour, meal, or dried fruit.
We must have help or starvation will
ensue. The millers in your town
could give few pounds of flour or
meal and not feel it. In the name of
God do something for our people.
Send things to the Nebraska Aid So
ciety, Omaha, Neb., care n. Z. WOoD-
RUFF, st. Paul, Howard county, Neb.,
cio Grand Island. They will come
free of charge"
Our citizens should take the mat

suffering people. We know Mr.

young man, and whatever may be
sent to his care will be judiciously

Faintness at the Stomach, and all dis
eases that arise from impure blood.
Sciatiea, Infiammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Gout and Spin
al Complaints, can only be effectually
cured through the blood.

towing them to Gallipolis.
The ice gorge at Addison has at
last gone. On Wednesday evening
a small part of it passed down, and
on Thursday it was thick. On Sun
day it was scarce, and confined to the
center of the stream. As a precau-
tion Messrs. Nevius & Dunbar had
their wharf-boat towed to the mouth
of Kanawha on Wednesday evening,
by the West Virginia and Clara

ThIeving in the Third Ward.
About three o'clock on Sunday
morning Mr.. HENRY WILLIAMS,
watchman at the upper Wooden Mills,
saw somebody apparently trying to
get into Mr.. REUBEN CANADY's
butcher shop, through the window.
As he approached man standing at
the window conducted 4 retreat that
would have done honor to General
Early, in the Shenandoah Valley.
When Mr.. WILLIAMS looked in at the
window he saw some fellow stretched
out upon the floor feigning deep sleep.
He aroused the proprietor of the
shop, who went after Marshal DALE.
Our good looking Marshal promena-
ded "the boy" down to the lock up.
He proved to be C. w. MYERS,
Knight of st. Crispin, who halls
from Kanawha, and has been loafing
around town for several days. We
called upon the cordwainer at the
lookup. He said it was put-up
job on him, and that he had been on
WASH VINEY's corner during the
night with FRED HOLMES and Bob
VINEY, two colored fellows; that
they had struck him several blows
upon the head, and made him get in
at the window, threatening to burden
his mind with good beating, if he
refused. (This deponent cannot
state how he came to be asleep so
suddenly when Mr.. WILLIAMS came) J.
On Monday HOLMES, VINEY and
MYERS were all before Judge KERR.
He discharged HOLMES, there being
no evidence against him, and com
mltted VINEY and MYERS to the
county Jail, in default of $500 each,
to let the Grand Jury inquire into
their malefactions.
