Crime seems to be epidemic in all

goes to bed at night; put his watch in
his boot, aud his pocket book under
his pillow, hide, tho silver spoons
under tile table, and, in short, put his
house in q state Of sipge for marked
robbers and midnight burglars. Chas-
tine Cox and tho Manhattan Bank
burglars, were scarcely nine days
wonder. Some new phase of crime
st'rt'es the community every day,
some for the their novelty, and Others
for their atrocity. This week the
great sensations have been the rob
berry OF wealthy English physician,
for which au intimate friend If his
has been arrested; aud a robbery of
her mother By a girl of fifteen years
OF age, which, coupled with the fact
that she succeeded i'll having poor
OLD Irish woman arrested for the
offense, proves her to be no ordinary
thief, and this, i'll connection with
her extraordinary faculty for lying
has made her, for the time being. the
gossip of the town. Thieves and
liars we have in plenty, and many of
them would be regarded as ornaments
to their profession in any civilized
country, but it is not often that we
see the character of champion liar
