LOOK our FOR THEM.

Our borough was visited yesterday By
Q pair Of strangers whose actions were,
to say the least, very suspicious. It is
probably no injustice to call them sharp
era" Their plan OF operation was to
step into stores and oanks with m ,ney
IN hand and ask to be Accommodated with
change generally wanting larger note
Tor several smaller ones. When an
obliging clerk or teller proceeded to
grant the request and handed out a
larger. bill, the stranger Invariably
wished some other kind OF bill if given
stiff, new note he wished an older one
and vsce uersa, pretending he wished to
send it in a letter or some other way
The design evidently is to get an oppor-
tnnlty to handle several notes and by a
skilful manipulation either pocket one
or substitute a bad note for a good one
We do not find any victim from yester,
days visit. 1t is good rule not t.
change money for strangers unless ape
cial care is exercised. 1t is thought tha'
these parties have been here before

Magistrates, Cases.

Before Esquire Frazer, last evening,
appeared Georgianna Goeding, Lewis
Mooris, VIM. DENLY and james Jones,
all colored, charged by JohnJ. McGuig-
an with perjury. 1t appeared that Nc
Guigan. with several young men were
before the Mayor, charged with disorder
ly conduct, and that the above parties
swore that McGuigan was guilty of the
charge, whereupon he was fined $5 and
costs, and in default of payment was con-
fined in the cells several days, causing
him to lose his situation. After hearing
the evidence, the Squire decided that
the charge of perjury was not clearly es-
tablished, and discharged the defendants
to be very careful, in the future, to be
positive as to the truth of the statements
they swore to.
This morning the Squire heard the
case of Patrick Doughorty, who WA
charged with trying to stab Chas
Dougherty with pitch fork, during q
dispute over drain. Patrick was held
in $500 bail for his appearance at Court
and under $500 bail to keep the peace.

THE TURKISH VICTORY DENIED,
An official dispatch is published at
Constautinople which denies the correct
ness of the rumor that the Russians had
completely evacuated the SchipKa Pass.
1t states that, on the. contrary, the two
Turkish brigades which captured Fort
st. Nicholas retired to their former posi-
tions for stragetical reasons after having
occupied the fort for six hours. .-.
A later dispatch from Constantinople
| says the Russians in the Schipka Pass
have been reinforced
General Radetzky's official account of
the fighting does not admit that the fort
was ever occupied by the Turks. He
says "After five days bombardment
the Turks, at o'clock in the morning,
made a sudden attack on the fort. The
attack subsequently extended aleng the
whole line, and was rspulsed with enor-
nous loss to the Turks, after desperate
fight, which lasted nine bours. The
Russian loss was nineteen officers and
four hundred men wounded and one
hundred killed. Prince Mestchensky,
