Crime. W notice in nearly all the papers that
robberies are committed all over the country, almost
daily. Persons cannot be too cautious in securing
their premises from tha depredations of these scoun
drels. There are, no doubt, several places of ren
dezvous for these scamps in this county, and all sus
picious looking characters should be elosely watched.
Several robberies bare lately been committed in our
midst and attempts made to break into houses during
tb temporary absence of families from home. Too
much care cannot be taken in properly fastenicg
th doors and windows of a bouse when leaving it
at night.

at the bottom of the well became too foul for him
and he waa drawn up. After waiting for some time
be thcught he would try it onoa more, as ha was
anxious to proceed with his work. Being let down
into the well ho remained but a moment or two
when be called out for those abort to draw him up
quickly. They proooeded to do to, ha having en
tered the large bucket nsed for drawing out tha
stones, dirt, Ao. When they had drawn him to
within about ten feet af tbe surfaoo he waa appa
rently overoome by the foul air, and losing con
sciousness, fell from the bucket and plunged head
downward to tha bottom of the well. He was res
cued from his perilous position as aoon as possible,
and Dr. J. P. MoCleerv was called to dress his
wounds. It was found that beside several severe
bruises, a sharp stone had entered the back part of
his head, penetrating the skull, making an ugly
wound from whioh the brains were ooiing out. Dr.
McCleery gave the wounded man every assistance
In his power, and had him removod to his home,
where he is now lying in a critical oondition.

The burglars entered tho Commissioners' office
through a window. They first blasted the iron door
out of tbe vault, and then blew open the safe with
powder. Tbe safe contained no money. They also
entered the Register's offico by cutting a hole in a
pane of glass with a diamond, and then reaching in
and taking tho nail out of the window, but failed to
get any money. Tho Prothonotary 's safe bad nearly
$100 in it, but, fortunately, the burglars did not
disturb it.

TESTIMONY OF MR. PETER SHAW.
West WiNriEi.n, N. Y., Dec. 10, 1660.
Messrs. S. W. Fowls & Sun, Boston,
Gentlemen: During the winter of 1M58 I was
very much out of health, afflioted with a severe
Cough, J'uin in the Hide and Lungs, and a gene
ral depression of health to such an extent as gruatly
to alarm myself and friends as to the result. Du
ring Ibis time I tried several highly recommended
remedies, with little or no good result, and had con
cluded to try the effect of a Southern climate upon
my health ; but, before carrying this resolution into
elToot, I was induced by the urgent solicitation of
your agent, Mr. Huntley, to give Dr. Wistar's Bal
sam of Wild Cherry a trial. I did so, and to my
groat joy found immediate and permanent relief by
tbe uso of only one bottle, and I am now in as good
health as ever. I believe your Balsam one of tbe
best remedies, for Coughs, Colds, and all Lung dis
eases, now in use, and conscientiously rocouimend it
as such .
Yours, truly, PETER SHAW.

Take Ayer's I'ills, and drive out tbe humors purify
the blood, and lot thn Uuids move on unobstructedlv,
in health. They stimulate th organs of tb body
into vigorous activity, purify the system from tho
obstructions which make disease A oold settles
somwbore in tho body, and dorangss the natural
operations of that part. This, if not relieved, will
react upon itseii and tue surrounding organs, pro
ducing genorul nggruvation, sufl'ering and dorango
ment. Whilo iu this condition, take Ayer's Pills,
and sco how directly they restore th natural action
of the system, and with it the buoyant feeling of
neaitn. vt nat is truo and so apparent in mis trivial
and common complaint is also true in many of the
deep seated and dangerous diseases. The same pur-
gatrvo expels them, caused by similar obstructions
and derangements, tbey are surely, and many of
them rapidly, cured by the same means. None who
know the virtue of these Pills will neglect to em
ploy them when sufl'ering from tbe disorders they
cure, such as Headache, Foul Stomach, Dysentery,
Bilious Complaints, Indigestion, Derangemont of the
Liver, Costircncss, Constipation, Uoarlburn, Rheu
matism, Dropsy, Worms, and Suppression, whon ta
ken in largo doses.
They are sugar coated, so that the most sensitive
can take them easily, and they are surely the best
