REMEMBER THE PooR.-Goy. Mcclellan, of
New Jersey, in his Thanksgiving proclama-
ton, recommends that in every church in the
State an opportunity be given every one to
make contributions of money for the relief of
the yellow fever sufferers as a thank offering
and pledge of fraternal love to the afflicted
citizens of the South. Would it not be well
if all the churches of Westminster should on
that day make thank offering for the benefit
of the poor in our midst, the pastors of the
several churches to be the almoners of the
funds so contributed in their own churches.
Many persons are unemployed, and number
are without the means OF subsistence, except
as they are supplied by others. This is a sad
condition to be in, and one which appeals
forcibly to the benevolently inclined, who
have plenty and to spare. Let notice of
such collections be announced in the church
es to morrow.

SwixDLERs.- have just learned of an.
other game by which farmers and others are
being extensively swindled. A fruit tree
agent, who represents himself as being con-
nected with an extensive nursery at Geneva,
n. I has been purchasing a large number
of grape vines, of some ordinary quality, from
an extensive nursery in this county, for about
Is cents each. These vines he sells to the
unsuspecting all over the country at 81 each,
representing them to be very superior quail
ity of grape which are to be had from his nur-
sery alone. The same thing has been done
with fruit trees of various kinds, and the swim
die has no doubt been an extensive one. We
have no sympathy with people who allow
themselves to be taken in by fellows who pro-
fess to represent foreign nurseries, &c. II
you want anything in the way of fruit trees
the best plan is to purchase from a reliable
home nursery, when you are sure of getting
what you pay for.-Bditimore Co. Union.

Death wore Tor her no dreadful form, but a
CLEAN of heaven illumed her brow in parting
breath, and left It's impress on the sweet dead
face
Her lifes work well done, she fOated out
on the great death billow to receive the re-

truthiulness and faith her spirit has gone up
to enter into the JOY of the Lord.
Of peculiarly unselfsh disposition, her
thoughts and works were for others. A genial
smile and a pleasant and cordial welcome
greete d all who came in contact with her.
In her quiet, unobirusive way, she scattered
kindness and good deeds all through the path
way of her life Her willing, generous hands
were ever ready to lavish acts OF noble good
ness. Hightoned and intelligent, of fine in
stinct, she was quick to perceive, and in
ready sympathy with the good and beautiful.
Devoted and affectionate, she was the light
and life OF her home, striving to the utmost
to make it pleasant and happy.

HoEsE THIEF CAPTURED On the 7th of
last May the barn of Mr.. Jacob Zacharias,
near this city, was broken open and a horse
and jaeger wagon taken therefrom. Infor-
nation was given to Sheriff Woods, who, with
his deputy, Mr.. Haines, and Mr.. Zacharias,
at once started in pursuit of the parties. They
were traced to Gettysburg, where the services
of Constable Myers were obtained, and from
there on to the mountains near Bendersville.
Finding themselves pressed by the officers,
the thieves left the horse and wagon and took
to the woods. Under the circumstances it was
deemed imprudent to follow, as only those
thoroughly acquainted with the mountains
could keep up with them in the dense under
growth. A sharp lookout has been kept up
by the officers at Gettysburg since that time,
and on Friday night of last week Constable
Peiffer succeeded in arresting William Hel
man, who is supposed to be one of the par
ties. On Sunday evening he was brought to

was indicted by the grand jury on Saturday.
