On Wednesday night last, the residence Of
S. n. Walker on Iron Street was entered by II
burglar, who found before j, got ont that he
had gone into the wIorg place. MIR, Walker
was absent, attending TO hi duties rs Court
Stcnogropher at Danvilo and HE vile was alone
in the house 1t was after midnight when she
was startled by a noise down stairs. Selling a
hachet, which she kept near at hand for self
defense, she dccendcd, and discovered n man in
in the act of making bundle of her silver
ware and other articles. Upon her entry he
extnguished the light, but not until she had
seen that he was white man, with blackencd
face, and light curly hair. The burglar cau-
toned her to keep quiet saying all he wanted
was her money, to which she responded by
dealing him blow on the head with the hatch
ct that knocked him down and upset the table
As soon as he regained his feet, she struck him
again on the arm knocking the castor which he
held in his hand to the floor, and causing the
member to fall helpless at his side. With this
he appeared to think it about time to leave
and he LEFT through the window by which he
had entered. Mrs. Walker says the left mark
on his temple, and believes his arm was broken
by the last blow. No arrest has yet been made
1t il 10 be regretted that the lady did not have Il
revolver instead of hatchct With the pres
cnce Of mind which she displayed throughout,
she certainly might have wounded him so that
his capture would be certain. She attempted to
arouse the neighborhood by her screams but did
not succeed, so fought it ont on her own hook
There are few lawcs fellows in this commit
nifty who will be hauled up one of these days,
with jerk that will make their bones crack.
But Il short time since, two married ladies were
insulted ON the street at night, by two of the
cowardly villains. We ought either to increase
our police force, or those that we already have
should be more active.

We give elsewhere synopsis of the new
game law. 1t will be seen that fishing with
nets in any inland stream is prohibited, Ger
tain parties do not appear to think this ppies
to Fishing creek. Te black bass that were
placed in that stream some time ago have new
er been heard Of and probably never will be,
as the stream is bordered almost nightly with
persons fishing in this unlawful manner. If
few of them could be apprehended, it wight be
good thing.

1t may be as well for our business men and
others to keep lookout ON pennies that are
passed for iiye-cent pieces They are in circu-
lation. 1t is supposed from the appearance OF
the coin that the manner OF making them is by
heating pennies Of the date Of 1859 or go,
which are known as the "whito nckles" AZ
ter being heated, the coins are placed between
two five cent pieces, after which they are put
into a vice or under a press, and the result is
that the pennies are squeezed out to the desired
size, receiving the impression of and looking
Ike well-woIR Gye-oent pieces.

The Baltimore Gazette says the whole
country is becoming impoverished, exhaust
ed, and almost hopelessly bankrupt Like
Egypt, groaning under its last and bittercst
curse, there is scarcely Il house in all the
land that does not feel the afIlction imposed
upon the country by its corrupt rulers. The
head and front Of this offending is undoubt-
edly, the President. Proofs multiply daily
that this patient, long suffering people at
length begin to fully understand this man.
His craft can no longer conceal his positive
guilt. Before the country his true character
now stands exposed and detested. lie has
"made himself a name in history fame
like that of Aerostratus. When the future
student of history shall read the account Of
Neros shameless conduct when Rome was
burning, he will be reminded of story he
once heard of a man from Galena.

'TAKE CARE OF THE PENNIES Look well
to your spending No matter what comes in,
more goes out you will always be poor. The
art is not in making money, but in keeping it.
Little expenses, like mice in barn, when they
are many, make great waste. Hair by hair
heads get bald straw by straw the thatch goes
off the cottage, and dropb drop the rain comes
into the chamber. A barrel is soon empty if
the tap leaks but drop minute. When you
mean to save begin 10 save with your mouth ;
many thieves pass down the red lane. The ale
jug is a great waste. In all other things keep
within compass. Never stretch your legs fur
ther than your blankets will reach, or you will
soon be cold, In clothes choose suitable and
lasting stuff, and not towdry fneries. To be
warm is the main thing never mind the looks
a fool may make money, but it takes wise
man to spend it. Remember it is easier to
build two chimneys than to keep one going. If
you give all to back and board, there is moth
ing left for the savings bank. Fare hard and
work hard when you are young and you will
have Il chance to rest when you are old.

We have received = small. weii.writish
pamphlet on the above subject, from
Harry George, we'll known In The literary
and editorial circles OF San Francisco.
and late editor Of The Daily Pod In that
City. He takes ground In favor Of
newspaper editors and writer's generally
being compelled BY Law to sign their
names TO whatever articles they may
write and publish. Mr.. George 10 .
good writer. brilliant and genial.
and barring . somewhat ov~srvssning
desire To rush into print. and b recos-
nissd and personally identified . such
BY . painting and admirins public. hs
will do very veil. His argument In the
matter Is good. logical. but not Anal and
convincing. and he fails to show where
any general benefit would accrue In the
adoption Of the practice he advocates.
Tho best and most able writers have
bean best discovered and known By their
writings. They viii always b discov-
cred and noted. without their names
being signed prominently ct the bottom
Of each article they may write. In fact.
the most really talented and usisorious
writsn for the prsss are generally the
least seotistioal In the matter Of psrad-
ing their names before the public.
The osssnsibls object In thus afaxing
the m Of the writers in public news
papers 10 that all may know upon whom
70 ax the responsibility. especially in
case Of legal or other trouble coming
out Of such writings. Even in this re-
spect. however. the necessity IL not APP
parent, for tho Publisher Of the paper
or the paper itself il held legally respon-
.ible for what IL written and publishsd In
its columns. The publisher or conductor
Of such paper employs writers TO N

out for his paper to pursue. He may

names to the bottom Of each ar

also work as a hardship In oblising the
Publisher or manager to employ only
those writer's whose records were clear,
