A cOlofed man named Leonce
Fabre or Fabb, commonly known by
the nickname of " Pedro" attempted
to rob the store of Mr.. H. E. DufRel,
situated on the Woodstock plantation
in he.Grst ward. Pedro chose q Rrn-
pitious hour for the attempt--Sunday
afternoon about 8 o'clock, while the
proprietor of the store aud his clerk
were both absent at dinner; bat the
method the would-be thief selected
for effecting an entrance was very
unfortunate for himself-he went
down the chimney, but found the
lever aperture too small to permit
the passage Of his body. Therefore
Mr. Fred. R. Thompson, j.. the clerk,
upon returning from dinner was as
tonished to discover the legs of Pedro
dangling in the fireplace, and the
luckless rascal so tightly wedged in
the chimney that he was unable to
move either up or down. Pedro, al |
most suffoeated, begged for relief, /
and Mr.. Thompson called couple OF
colorsd men passing BY, through |
whose efforts and the ASSISTANCE of a
rope the trapped rascal Was dragged I
out the way he had entered. A more
sorry sight than Pedro presented it
would be difficult to imagine he
vas covered with SCOT from top to toe,

ape from his ludicr Gus aud painful

There is some talk of changing the
schedule of our New Orleans and
Texas railroad, so that the daily train
will leave here in the morning and
return, at night. This experiment has
been tried several times heretofore
and abandoned in disgust, wherefore
we hope it will not be repeated. The
only argument we have heard In
its favor is that persons would be en-.
abled to visit New Orleans, have two
or three hours for the transaction of
business aud return the same day,
thus avoiding in great degree the
danger of contracting yellow fever.
While very few might be conve-
nieneed in this reapect. the great ma.
jority would be seriously inconve-
hieuced, especially in the delay which
wonld result in the receipt Of the
daily mail from New Orleans. There
will be very little travel to aud from
the city pending the prevalence OF
the fever, aud the railroad authorities
would soon find, if their rumored
scheme is carried into effect, that its
Disadvantages outweigh any transit
tory benefits TO- be derived.

ward was called upon to attend three
children of Dir. Trasimond Berteau.
residing ON the Waterloo place, sixth

ing toadstools, which they mistook
for mushrooms. Although the unfor
tunate children had been suffering
three hours, the Doctor succeeded in
counteracting the effects of the poison
ana saving the lives of his patients.
we believe this may be considered a
noteworthy accomplishment and q
signal triumph Of medical skill.
