WEDDING AT THE STAMINA gentle

Helser, from Thornville, Perry county,
Ohio, Of the Dunkard persuasion, religi.
ously, and matrimonially inclined, ar.
rived at the Stamm House about8 o'clock
Last night. County Clerk Woods was
hunted up and a license obtained, and a
messenger sent for the Rev. MI. Barnitz,
and as soon az the Reverend gentleman
arrived The commodious parlors Of the
s,amm were thrown open and the cere.
mony performed in the presence Of the
guests and city reporters. The gentleman
Ia SO aud the lady % years Of age. They
are cousins, and though Of amply legal
age, their consanguinity, under the laws
Of Ohio, was an insuperable barrier to
their union. The party, particularly the
gentleman, seemed anxious TO have the
catastrophy over in time to take the west
bound train, but after the ceremony, on
learning that they would be detained nine
hours al Newark, they wisely concluded
to lay owe and watch for the moonrise
under the roof Of mine host stamm.

A BRACE OF BuRGLARIEs.-The burg
lara got in their work well 10 the imme'
diate vicinity Of this Office on Tuesday
night. Two burgiaries are reported with
in 4 square Of the IsTELLieEscER build
ing. .o.,
Tough q Heiner, corner Main and Ian
streets, was entered some time during The
night, and about $3.50 worth Of goods
carried of. The stolen goods included
6fteen reyolyerS, o dozen silver plated
forks, a lot OF pocket knives, cartridges,
etc. The thieves effected an entrance BY
bending the bolt Of 0 Yale lock on
the door with q Jimmy" and thus open
ing the door. The door was left stand
Ing wide open, and was thus found by
MI. Heiner, a member Of the firm, when
be arrived at his place Of business in The
morning. AT 2 A. NJ. a reporter Tor this
paper, happening to turn the corner Of
Main and 14th streets rather auddenlyl
discovered two suspicious looking char
acters lounging in Messrs. Mccullough q
Heiuer's doorway, but attached no i'm
portance, ,oi It at the time. The fellows
were strangers to the reporter, and look
ed like tramps.
Tie other robbery alluded to was that
Of the "San Jacinto Saloon kept BY Rob.
ert Miller, on the west side Of Market
street, between 18th and 10th streets
When Mr.. Miller entered his saloon In
,ha mnrninp he noticed an appearance OF
disorder about the premises, and imme.
diately surmised that something was
wrong. Upon examining. the I'LL, he
found that $500 in cash, which he had left
there the night before, was missing, also
liquors and cigars valued at $40, which
would make his aggregate loss about $500:
An examination Of the premises showed
that the thief or thieves had effected
an entrance by means Of a window
in the kitchen, and alter forcing
the hall door open had gone down
into the cellar and up through a trap
door into the saloon. A eau OF oil which
had been purchased the night before was
missed, but was tracked to the garrett BY
tie oil that was spilled upon the floor.
In the garrett the raiters ofthe ceiling were
found 10 be charred, and all around was
scattered e~ombnstible material. The
house had evidently been fred by the
Thief, and the flames were perhaps smoth:
cred for want Of air, as the trap door had
been closed by the thief when he took his
departure. Thus what might have re-
suited in an extensive conflagration was
almost %miraculously prevented.
