The festive burglars have not yet con-
cluded their business in this city. About
. O'Clock yesterday morning one of them
paid visit to German IL Beinrich's s
grocery store at Eighth and o streets, and
met with reception such as he was not

It seems that Mr.. German, who rooms
in the building, heard the fellow fumGIing
at the window-shutters, and promptly
obeyeG the injunction to get his Gun.
And it was gun-not a pocket-pistol--
with two good charges Of bird shot in it.
German went to door where he could
| gee the burglar, near the window, and he
took q snapshot at the fellow. When
the smoke cleared away so that he could
take look over the place he found that
the burglar had gone, but German be-
lieyeS that he took a portion of the shot-
charge with him as a souvenir OF his
visit.
ANOTHER ONE HEARD FROM.
The fact came to light yesterday that a

to enter the residence of julius Steinhart.
on p street, between Sixth and Seventh.
He was in the act OF raising a window

pistol. The burglar heard him and broke

If a few of these midnight marauders
should get shot it would put stop to the

ancient articles of attire. Shoes extend
ing certain height up the leg, laced,
ornamental and of fanciful colOrs, were
in use by the ancient Egyptians, Greeks
and Romans. Different kinds of half

and Anglo-Normans. In the reign of
Edward " the boot proper, with tops
and spurs, was established as an article
of knightly dress.
In the reign of Charles 1 boot, wide
at the top, made of Spanish leather, came
into use. Charles II introduced high

gay courtly attire. Meanwhile the boot,
or jack boot, as it was called, had be
come indispensable in the costume Of
cavalry soldiers and horsemen generally,
and was regularly naturalized by Will
lam III and his followers in England.
The jack boot was strongly made, ex-
tending in length above the knee, was
large at the top and had a very high
heel, and around the ankle had fiat
leather band bearing strong spur.-St.

SORROW.

Il sorrow the poets heart has wFung,
Could you blame his song were it sadly sung?
Or the wounded bird that with dropping wing
Its mournful plant can but feebly sing?
The rose in her beauty smiles not so bright
When the sun has withdrawn his kindly light
Or his mimic orb, with the night dews wet
The tears that he sheds when his god has set.
You may have lost that which you love the
best,
But chide not your bosom's deep unrest,
For song and flower and heart may be
More pure and sweet for their agony.
