As a hotel keeper, he has lived up nearer to

Several door keys have been found up

-Retween one and two hundred "Bob
Whites" and their consorts have found their
way to the coy aviary which Mr.. L. E.
Wills has fitted up for their accommodation
at the Emery Wheel works. Although
they are ignorant, no doubt, that they are
imprisoned as matter of friendship, to
protect them from the snow and merciless
cold weather, and perhaps long to be set at
liberty, fearing that some i'll fate awaits
them, yet they seem cheerful and contented
with life. Certainly, they lack for none
of the creature comforts which are supposed
to make a birds heart glad, and by and by,
when the solt spring breezes play upon their
native hills they will be allowed to go a
wouing there.

INFORMATION"
The attention of the people of this town
and county is specially called to the number
of deaths reported in the papers from that
dreadful disease consumption. In fact, this
disease is reported to be constantly in
creasng, as can be seen by examining the
mortality list, and all caused by not breaking
up a slight cough or cold as soon as it APP
pears, which can be easily done by using
HOes Honey of Horehound and Tar, an
article which was discovered by the late DR..
Hale, celebrated physician of Europe, and
used in his private practice tar many years
with great success. The present proprietor,
believing this market required just such al
article, has purchased the same at large
outlay, and is preparing it according to the
original recipe. And those who have used
the article (who are thousands) consider it
a certain cure for all coughs, colds, hoarse-
ness, difficult breathing, and all affections
Of the throat, bronchial tubes and lungs
leading to consumption. Sold by all drug
gist. Great saying by purchasing largo
size.

The chief actor in this affair was LamOtte-
Valois. a French adventures, who died in
London in 1871 at the age of Ihirty-tive.
She was born in Champagne, where, after
marrying a Count de Lamotte, who was a
spendrift, she went to Paris, and succeeded
in being introduced to Marie Antoincttc,
who took some interest in her, and to Card
iual de ROhan, grand almOner to the king.
She persuaded the latter that she could con-
ciliate for him tie affection of the queen,
who, she told him, was deSirOus of getting a
magnificent diamond necklace then in the
hands of the court jewellers, which was
worth about LOCO, ,000f. She induced a
Nile D'Oliva, who resembled Marie Antoin-
ette, to personate her at midnight inter-
view with Rohan in the gardens of Yer
sailles. With the real signature of ROhan
and a forged one of the queen, the countess
got possession of the necklace Feb. 2, 1856,
which she sold in London, but pretended
that she had delivered it to the queen, and
for several months concealed the robbery by
producing forged notes, apparently written
by the latter Finally, direct application
of the jewellers to her majesty awoke suspi-
cion, which resulted in public trial before
the Parliament. All France was excited
over the affair. The cardinal was discharg-
ed from all accusation, while the countess
was sentenced to be whipped, branded on
the shoulder and imprisoned for life. After
being incarcerated about two years at the
Salpetriere, she escaped June ., 1857, and
fled to London, where she published libels
against the queen. Her husband survived
her, and twice wrote complete history OF
the affair; the first manuscript was taken
from him by the French police; the second
was mutilated in its most important parts.

An Old story Re-told.

Vice. Admiral Lord Nelson was a great
sea captain if ever one lived. When, on
the 18th Of September. lSD5, he hOisted
his flag on board-the Victory, and arrived
off Cadiz on his birthday 10 take command
of the Mediterranean fleet. he meant
fighting. There was no suspicion Of heSi
,ation in his tactics. The force under him
consisted Of twenty-seven sail of the line
and four frigates, which he withdrew from
the vicinity of Cadiz to a station sixteen or
eighteen leagues tO the westward, in the
hope of inducing the enemy to put to sea
These were the days of dash and manhood,
and great must have been Nelson's exulta-
ton when, on the morning of October the
2lst, just at daybreak, the combined French
and Spanish fleets, consisting Of thirty
three sal OF the line and seven frigates,
were seen ahead TO lecward twelve miles.
The Admiral lost no time, for before twelve
the British fleet was bearing down on the
crescent shaped position of the enemy, and
then il was that Nelson hoisted the signal,
England expects that every man will do
his duty The only fear was that the
enemy might run for refuge, therefore
Nelson notified to Collingwood, Il intend
TO pass through the van Of the enemys
line to prevent him from getting into
CadiZ." There was an atfectiOnaie anxiety
about the impetuOsity and determination OF
the commander, 50 Captain BlacwOod pro-
posed that the Temeraire should 90 ahead
otthe Victory, in case that vessel might
draw the principal attention of the enemy's
fire. 80, YES, let her 90 ahead, replied
Nelson: but at the same tine he had
clearly no intention of allowing any such
thing. for he would not permit an inch of
canvas to be taken in, and the Victory con-
tinued to lead the column, closely Rugged
by the Temeraire. It was COllingwood,
however, who began the fight on board the
ROYAL Sovereign, commanding the lee divi-
sion, and the feelings of the two brave men
at this important moment found utterance
almost at the same instant. 'What would
Nelson give to be here!" exclaimed Col
lingwood to Captain Rotheram, and at the
same instant, without spark CT jealousy
at the enviable position of his friend,
Nelson observed, ''See how nobly Colling-
wood carries his ship into action.
But at twenty minutes past noon the
Victory was in the thick of the fight.
Scarcely minute after the ship got
within range, seven or eight ships opened a
terrible and destructive fire upon her. The
Admiral's secretary, Mr.. Scott, was shot
dead, and soon the mizzen topmast of the
Victory was carried away, and also her
wheel, necessitating the process of steering
by the relieving tackles below. Yet no

Frank Paulin Is the leader of a band OF
robbers. In Berks county Pa he was late
lv convicted and sentenced TO seven years.
lie lived alone in a cabin on the Blue
Mountains. His cabin was built of logs
and the roof was thatched with leaves,
hickory poles and straw. There was
rude floor in it, covered with buffalo skin
and the skins of various animals that were
killed on the mountains. Paulin was
good shot and always went armed. In
appearance he resembled a border hunter,
and was never known TO molest any one.
He was quiet, reserved and gentlemanly
in his manners, about thirty-eight years of
age. light auburn hair. auburn mustache,
well cared for. light eyes, light complexion,
and well formed He is about medium
in height. and his frame is well knit. Ills
faithful companions were two mastiffs, and
for several years he had been looked upon
as quite a suspicious character. Nearly
every every evening the blue smoke curled
ND from The rude chimney of his cabin,
and persons who passed that way frequent
" stated that the most savory smells OF
cooking came from the fireplace OF Paulin
mountain home Then again. a number
of mysterious srangers, men who had bad
looks, frequently wended their way to the
cabin and were subsequently, seen in the
Company of Paulin on the mountains. Ills
history was unknown, except that it was
generally supposed he was German by
birth and had not been attracted to the
mountains by desire to lead the life Of
hermit. He had no visible means of sup
port further than the fact that he went
hunting on the mountains frequently and
in that way procured some food consisting
of rabbits, pheasant. and other game
Suspicion rested upon him whenever any of
the farmers were robbed in the valley be-
low. Stores, dwellings offices, barns,
smoke houses, cellars, railroad stations and
chicken coops were marauded night after
night all along that section bordering on
the Blue Mountains, and it was generally
supposed that Paulin with a number OF
professional tramp thieves was at the bot
tom of all the mischief. Near to the cabin
of Psulin was another cabin, occupied by
the Strausser family. They are rude and
coarse backwocds people, and Paulin
found use for them in many ways, such as
washing his clothes, receiving stolen goods
