If some of our farmers, instead of devoting
their Yields to the raising of wheat, corn and
potatoes exclusively, would turn their atten
tion to raising onions, tomatoes, cabbages,
and other garden vegetables, they would
realize double the looney they now do. The
prices which these articles have commanded
in our market the past year, ought certainly

THE COIIRT: On Wednesday Henry Esh
leman was charged by Sarah Ann Sweigart
wife of David E. Sweigart, of Elizabethtown,
with Tilt and battery with an attempt to
commi a rape. This trial commenced
Tuesday afternoon and continued until Wed-
nesday afternoon when the jury found a ver
dict of not guilty on both charges.
Elijah Pugh, was charged with false pre
tense. This suit was brought by the Inland
Insurance and Deposit Company, more than
a year ago, and was tried last August, but the
jury could not agree and were discharged.
The public are familiar with the details of
the case. It came up again on Wednesday
afternoon and occupied the time of the Court
until about 4 o'clock on Thursday, when it
was submitted to the jury. On Friday morn
ing they came into Court with a verdict of
not guilty—costs divided between the parties.

alleged that he was not making true returns,
and was appropriating the money of his em
ployer. The Jury found him guilty, with a
recommendation to mercy.
The Jurors and witnesses were discharged,
there being no other business before the Court.
BURGLARIES : There seems to be a nest of
burglars about Lancaster, and we are glad to
be able to publish that two of the scoundrels
have been caught. On Sunday morning last,
the dwelling of Mr. Abraham L. Lane, in
Manheim township, a few miles from this city,
was entered while the family were at church,
and about ninety dollars in notes and silver
change stolen. A short time afterwards the
house of Israel McCleary, half a mile from
Lane's, was also entered, and some twenty
dollars taken. Two men having been seen
on the Litiz turnpike, pursuit was made by
Mr. Lane and his brother, and the men were
overtaken near the city, and a flight and pur
suit began. A man named Adam Fletterer,
residing in this city, proved to be one of them,
and was overtaken and arrested, after a chase
of about a mile. The other held out longer,
and was chased by Mr. Lane nearly to Wa
bank, where he came up to him, but was too
much exhausted to attempt an arrest, and the
fellow escaped for the time. Fletterer was
taken before the Mayor, admitted the robbery,
and gave the name of his accomplice as John
Boas, also of this city. Nearly fifty dollars
was found on his person. He was committed
for trial. Boas was arrested at Harrisburg,
on Monday last, and lodged iu jail here on
Tuesday.
The house of Mr. Levi G. Getz, on the Har
risburg pike, was entered on Sunday night,
or early on Monday morning, but the thief or
thieves were unsuccessful in getting anything
except a couple of overcoats, as Mr. Getz was
wakened by the noise, and the scoundrels
escaped. Mr. Getz had a loaded pistol, but
refrained from tiring, for fear that the intru
der might be one of his family moving around.
