There seems to be no limit to
the methods By which ingenious
rascality continue to get posses
sion of property without 'let or
lease" What one scoundrel does
not think of another does, and all
things considered, the honest pub
lie contends against constant
aud discouraging disadvantage. -
Only a few days ago a car load of
passengers were chlorofor med and
robbed on the Michigan Central
railway. A few evenings since
passenger on the Lake Ontario
Shore road noticed a peculiar o.
dor in the car. and that a strange
appearance of stupor had sudden.
! ly come over his fellow passengers.
His suspicious were aroused, and
he was not long in discovering q
questionable looking individual
at the rear end of the car, with a
kind of can which he was vainly
endeavoring TO conceal. The vii
lain pretended it CONFIRMED coffee.
His can was found to contain e.
ienough of the ''coffee" to stupefy
several car loads of passengers. =
The would. be-robber is in custody
and stands an excellent chance of
learning a trade somewhere for
the good of The State. There is
something far from agreeable IN
the reflection that a man may be
chloroformed and robbed while
making railroad journey, and
the very audacity Of the thing
renders it all the more uncomfor
table to contemplate. Ia the
good old times when robbers bade
J their victims stand and deliver
there was some chance for defense
bn. when the. ingenious footpaC
takes to chloroformiDg a whole ca
load of passengers and working
his bitter will upon his uneon
scious victims, then it is time TO
the law to step in and provide
greater protection for travellers.

A Breakfast with the
KhediVe.

The correspondent Of the Lon
don Daily Telegraph at Cairo
gives the following account of q
breakfast with the Khedive of E
gypt:
Great taste was displayed in
the decoration of the table i
have rarely seen such fruits and
exotics even in English houses
and the ornamental structures in
sugar and sweet pastes, which
served as centre-pieces, were as
remarkable for their size as for
the elaborateness of their design
and the richDess Of their colors.
The servants were not arrsyed in
the picturesque and frequently
very costly costume worn by the
retaiuers OF mestswealthy Egyp-
tan SeigneurS, but wore Europe
an liverles of green and gold.
OF the breakfast itself, which
lasted hll 8 o'clock, aud was COM
posed of no less than twenty-five
courses, the most interesting fea-
lure TO the foreigners who partook
of it was, imagine, that it open
ed with fresh oysters and real tur.
tie soup. Respecting one of the
ipIdtS, IRIS a la Khedive,' compos-
ed of peculiarly small and deli
cate rice stewed in conSOnsme
of calves brains, / cannot forbear
reproducing a statement made to
me by my neighbor at the table,
one of the great diguitaries of
| the Khedive's court: Il cordially
recommend that rice to you," said
hls Exceilency, Gin the first place,
because it is a really admirable
dish, in the preparation of which
bis Higbness' chef excels all 9TH
eEs; aud, secondly, because it is
probably the most expensive NETS
ever set before anybody since the
days of Heliogabolus. Every
grain of that rice, my dear sir,
costs the Khedive louis /; | ven.
ture to appraise your consumption
at $3.50 a mouthful. The hook
you have been drinking is not an
absolutely cheap wine +; Ismail
Pasha touk all he could get of il
at GO francs a bottle--about $12;
but, in comparison to his rice, he
may be considered to have got it
for nothing. That rice is OF a pc.
culiar sort, grown on the Khe
dives own estates it is, conse-
quently, the most costly article
that appears on the ViceregA ia.

Mr.. Metcalf, of Pittsburg, man.
ufacturer of cutlery, said to the
Ways and Means Committee in
Washington that the ores Of Nor.
thern Georgia and Alabama had
turned out equally as valuable for
the manufacture of fine cutlery
as the Swedish ore, hitherto ex.
clusively used. The same quail
ty of ore abounds in Tennessee
The ore i'll this State will make
as fine iron as can be produced in

A single grain of barley was
planted by an agriculturist in the
fs!e of Man in 1862, and the
same year produced three hund
red grains. These were soWn,
and the second years produce
was about half pint. These
were again sown, and the third
wears produce was fourteen
hounds, which being again sown
have realized this year about sew
on bushels, covering a space of one
hundred yards by FIVE. Thus
there have been produced in four
wears seven bushels f barley from
single grain.

poultices which after being used,
were thrown out where a dog

A SENSATION CAUSED BY A DEAD
WoMAN.-We mentioned ip yesterdays
REGISTER, that Mrs. Elizabeth Steck
living in Market street. near the St.
Alphonsus church, had died suddenly the
morning previous, of heart disease, but
we had no idea of the startling
sensation her dead body would
create in this city, as it did
yesterday. About o'clock it was nois-
ed around the streets, that woman in
Centre Wheeling who had been dead
twenty-four hours, had returned to life
again Just as she was about to be buried.
All sorts of rumors filled the air and in
a brief space of time the affair was
known all over the city.
But this is the beginning: The funer-
al of Mrs. Steck advertised to take place
al 8 o'clock and mass was to be celebrat-
ed st. Alphonsus Church. The hearse
and carriages arrived and the friends of
the family also appeared. Mass was
celebratedisnd the bell tolled, and all
present were waiting for the arrival Of
the corpse. After waiting some time it
was announced that Mrs. Steck had come
to life again and had sat up in her coffin.
Such startling announcement could not
but create intense excitement among
those present, and all sorts of insane talk
was INDUCED in. But why this belief
IN resuscitation of the dead? 1t was
this: When the body was taken from
the ice, which it had been deposited for
some time, the face had = natural ap-
pearance, and there seems to have been
a sort of twitching of the muscles around
the mouth, and there is no reason for
believing that life had not been extinct
from the first report OF her
death. OF course the report that
she had sat up in the
coffin was false. DIR. Blum was imme-
diately sent for and expressed his opin-
ion that life was extinct, but to satisfy
the relatives and friends the funeral was
postponed until T.. NJ. yesterday, at
which time the deceased was buried
There are few, under the circumstances
who believe that there was any return
to life.
1t was reported that Miss Mary Auth
who had assisted in laying out the body
of Mrs. Steck, while dressing to attend
the funeral yesterday morning, had an
attack of heart disease, and was IN dam
gerous condition.

Appetite a Necessity.

Appetite is necessity. without 1t, sui.
ficient food Is not received into the
stomach either TO nourlsh the system or TO
give the stimulus To the bowels which they
require. Both these organs and the liver
become torpid in consequence. and the
blood grows poor in quality and quantity.
Improve the appetite, therefore, and avoid
such results. This is most efiectually done
with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, tonic
appetizer and alternative without peer.
IL gives not only an unw0nted zest for
food, but enables the stomach TO digest
and the system TO assimulatc IL. Flatu-
lencc, heartburn, nausea, and every other
concomitant OF indigestion, are removed
by 1t, as are also biliousness and constipa-
ton. Each nerve aud fibre OF tue body In
made TO tingie with health by it's use, and
is the leading remedy for desponl ency.

A PICKPoCKET SCRAPE-1 esterday
while gentleman named +. Lowerie,
a resident of Martins Ferry, WAS en-
route from that place to Pittsburgh,
he, when this side of Portland, missed
his pocket book containing $40. BY
advice he had young man arrested by
the name of Woods, who sat in the seat
behind him. Culp took the man before
the Mayor, and In connection with
Marshal Swords, made thorough ex-
animation of his person but found
nothing. Mayor Oliver put the prisoner
through scrutinous cross-examination,
and was not satisfied with his replies as
to his business, etc. He accordingly
held him over until this morning.
