EuSGLAEIOUS ENTRY.

Dana Graham's Comb Factory HoObeI.
Last night thieves broke into Dana Ora
hams comb factory, corner of James and
Market streets, and robbed it of about s25
worth of back and dressing combs and q
small amount of money. An entrance was
effected by breaking open one of the back
windows of the factory. Then tho door,
leading from the working department into
the store room, was forced open with an
iron bar. Here the thieves made their Sc
lection of combs, emptying some dozen Or
more boxes, carrying OF the combs and
leaving the boxes behind. 4 white linen
blind was tom down from one Of the win
dows for the purpose, probably, OF wrap
ping the combs in. The thieves then
forced the door leading from tho store
room to Mr.. Graham's business Office.
Here a desk was ransacked and about
S1.25 in change stolen. A pass book
lying on 4 shelf above the desk contained
So or s4, but this the thieves did not dis
cover. No attempt seems to have been
made to break open the safe in the Office.

"Down With the Vatican"

The Pope, in his address to the Italian
pilgrims at St. Peters, Sunday, stated
that the deplorable state of affairs placed
before him the alternative of enduring
continual captivity, made harder daily, or
of going into exile. He therefore asked
Catholics to watch and pray for the liberty
and independence of the Pope. He con-
cluded by saying that lie was no longer
secure in his palace ; that he was outraged
in his person and dignity in = thousand
ways. The gravity and carnestness of the
Pope made profound impression. Ho
closed his address with his arms raised to
Heaven as though imploring help.
\ dispatch from Rome to the Lon
don Times says: 1t is impossible to
describe the enthusiastic cheers after
the Pope gave his benediction
on the occasion of receiving tho Italian
pilgrims at St. Peters on Sunday. The
Pope looked thin, worn aud anxious. A
gang of roughs pelted the pilgrims when
they were leaving the Church of St. Vitale,
shouting, "Down with the Vatican. ~

Which Was Winch?

There is fish story very charminsIy
told in verse by Mr.. Innis Randolph. An
old negro fisherman succeeded in hooking
Il drum of huge size, the other end of his
line being fastened for security to his
ankle. He was pulled into the water,
and after a terrible struggle beneath the
brine, both he and the fish were drowned.
The moral of the story is rs follows:
They were washed ashore by the hcaving
tide,
And the fishermen found them side by side.
In a common death, and together bound
By the line that circlcd them round and
round,
So looped and tangled together,
That their fate was involved in !: dark my5-
terry
AS to which was the catcher and which the
catchee;
For the fish was hooked hard and fast by the
gill
And the larkic was lassoed around the heel
And each had died by the other.
And the fishermen said ii could never be
known,
For all their thinking and figuring.
Whether that niger u fishing had gone.
Or the fish had gone out lingering"

IT was carrying the war into Africa
with a vengeance when last night Mr..
Wolfe invaded the home of Field Mar
shal Cooper and addressed the largest
political meeting ever held in Media, in
his usual vigorous vein; while in return
for the compliment Mr.. Chas. +. Smith,
the brilliant and eloquent editor of the
Philadelphia Press, assembled around
him a great crowd Of Wolfe's friends
and neighbors at Lewisburg, and told
them why they ought not to give him
their support, but should turn in and
vote for the machine candidate. \
funny incident is told of the Wolfe meet
ing when leaning over his desk, immedi-
ately below which the Boss chair
man had taken position, the Indepen-
dent Republican candidate declared in
his peroration: . Every one of them and
Tom Cooper, too, are the representatives
not only of stalwartism, but of riot bill
rascality, pardon bill infamy and asso-
Citations that should make an honest man
blush" At this juncture of the pro-
ceedings the field marshal's S countenance
is represented as wearing the expression
of an undertaken who had lost his whole
family.

has done it before and therefore is obnox-
ious to suspicion. With him in the chair
dare the Republicans attempt any pro-
ceedings of party policy? Can they be
sure that the man they have elevated will
not vote on occasion to advance the cause
of their opponents? II they have any
dorbt of his liability to be "independent "
let them read one sentence from his re.
marks on taking the chair =" If it carried
with it any pledge of party obligation l
could not accept the high position" Pray,
in what is this man better than
Mr.. Bayard? By accident or in caprice he
may vote with the Republicans nov and
then, but who can say he is to be trusted
by the party he has SO often betrayed :?
In Bayard We had man who could be
trusted-trusted to always vote against
US. A dozen open enemies are better than
ono uuce: tain friend. II the election of
Davis shall help the Republicans to elect
the secretary of the Senate and the execu-
tive clerk (the chaplain is not insisted
upon) the act was not wholly in vain. 1t
is idle and trivial in other respects" That
last observation is charming reproduc-
tion of the celebrated opinion Of Hon.
Mr.. Flanagan, of Texas, who at the last
Republican national convention demanded
to know what they were there for, any
how, if not for the Offices.

IT would not he Ireland if it was not
always in a ferment. We do not pretend
to thoroughly understand the Irish ques-
tion, hut we do understand that the
English government has made very large
concessions to the demands of the ten
ants, whose alleged grievances create all
the commotion, and that these conces-
sions are rejected Ly the malcontents
without trial of their efficacy towards
the redress of the evils of which they
complain. This is manifestly unfair
and the fact seems to be that no conces-
sion will satisfy the agitators short of an
agrarian distribution of the land in fee

landlords, neck and heels, from the coun.
try. The American Irishmen before
