LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.


Arrest of a Lancaster Eas-picker In Harris.
burg. with = Small Boy and . Horse
That He Fails to Account for.
Mayor MacGonigle received on Wednes-
day afternoon communication from tho
mayor OF Harrisburg, Of which the fol-
lowing is copy
HARRISBURG, March II, 1882.
To the Mayor, Lancaster City.
SIR :: We have a man arrested b. the
name of Reuben Batoff, Of your city p;
also, a boy named Reena (aged years).
The man Batoff cannot give 4 good ac-
count Of having this boy in his possession.
1t appears that Batof is a rag picker, &c,
aud We thought he had stolen or cnticed
the boy to leave home. His father lives
on Market street of your city. Please
make enquiries about the parties and if
no charge against them will discharge
them. II the parents want the boy let
them sent for him,
Yours, &C.,
JOHN c. HERMAN, Mayor.
The mayor placed the matter in the
hands Of the police, with instructions to
investigate. Thus far they have failed to
find the parents of the bOy--there being
nobody by tho name of Recna living OH
Market street. It appears that man
named BOtoff or Batoff, borrowed horse
some days ago to 60 through the country
to gather up rags, and has not yet re-
turned the animal. From this circum-
stance it is inferred by the police that he
may have sold the horse, kidnapped the
boy, and induced him to give fictitious
name to the authorities at Harrisburg.
Chief of Police Dicchler has te;egraphed
tho Harrisburg authorities to hold the
parties for a day Or two until further in
1uiries are made. b

Yesterdays adviccs from the flooded
portions of the Mississippi Valley show
that the river 1T New Orleans is eight
inches below the high-water mark Of 1874,
while at Vicksburg it is 39 inches above.
1t is hoped the heavy rise at Vicksburg
will be dissipated by the crevasses below
that place. Tho situation in the AIissis.

as at first reported, but is still grave
enough, "almost appalling, in fact, when
literally stated" Several additional breaks
are reported in the levees in Louisiana.

morning, and several dwellings, were
swept away by the torrent.

Col. MCCLURE forecasts the impend-
ing struggle between Blaine and Arthur
for the mastery of their party and thinks
Arthur shrinks from the responsibility
which his leadership. imposes upon him.
1t is not convincing proof of his lack of
valor that he inclines to be discreet.
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread,
and if Mr.. Arthur is moving slowly
there is no sign that he is taking any
steps which he proposes to retrace. The

JUDGE BLATCHFoRD's specially is
patent law, butit was his application OF
old fashioned legal principles that made
him popular with the press when he dis.
missed the suit of Alexander H. Shepperd,
of the District of Columbia, against Chas.
A. Dana, when it was sought to remove
Dana for trial to Washington on charge
of libel. Blatchford is considered rea.
sonable Republican, but not an excitable
or superserviceable one.
1T seems that the local elections in
Philadelphia so demoralized the Republi-
can bosses that McManes, Hoyt, Quay
and the whole of them soon afterward had
supper and conference in Harrisburg,
where it was agreed to make every con-
cession to the Stalwarts to get them back
into the fold for the fall sheariug. Out of
this conference grew the proposition of the
Stalwarts Of Lancaster county to agreo on
four Butler and four Beaver delegates to
the state convention. The gift-bearins
Greeks were rejected here. In Schuylkill
county, which gave Wolfe upwards of
1900 votes, committee has been appoint
cd by the Stalwart county committee to
confer with a like committee of Wolfe
men, for tho purpose of healing up the
differences between the two bodies. The
Stalwart committee are authorized to offer
the Wolfe men any terms they want, even
to half or more of the delegates to the
state convention and the bulk of the local
nominations to Office IL only they will 20
into the state convention and agree to
abide by the decision of tho said conven-
tion, thus binding them not to support an
independent movement.

Tho Maryland Miners Reported Disorderly
and Defiant.
Reports from the strikers in the Cum
berland (Md.) coal region to day state
that the men are becoming very disorderly
in some sections, particularly around the
mines north of Lonaconing, and that all
the other citizens are leaving the district.
The knights of Labor have given notice
that whenever the coal companies ask for
a compromise they will appoint a commit
tee of five to meet them and talk over the
situation. The strikers continue to be
very defiant, and do not hesitate to say
that they will not allow a ton of coal to
be taken from the valley until their de-
nands are acceded to. There is much
uneasiness throughout the whole of Al
legheny county, and the belief is that
there will be serious trouble before the
strike ends. Already many of the rail-
road employees, thrown out Of work by the
strike, are complaining, and in q few
weeks half of them will be in destitute
circumstances. The disastrous effect of
tho strike is also seen in the fact that 2, 500
boatmcn of the Chesapeake and Ohio
canal are also rendered idle, and con-
sequently have nothing to live on. There
are but five constables in the whole region
to contend with lawlessness, and Of these
three are miners and in full sympathy with
tho strikers. The miners by formal reso-
luton reiterats their determination not to
allow the introduction Of foreign labor,

The practice IS common among the
engravers aud watehmakers Of Germany
of hardening their tools in sealing wax.
The tool is heated to whiteness aud
plunged into the wax, withdrawn after
an instant, and plunged again, the pro-
cess being repeated until the steel is too
cold to enter the wax The advantages
claimed for this method are that the
steel becomes almost a. hard rs the
diamond, and when touched with a
little oil or turpentine, the tools are
superior for engraving, and also for
piercing the hardest metals.
