gentleman residing there, had. sent on
to attend to his son's Interests. Mr.
Leeds asked the court to be lenient
as this was Snyder's fir s t offence, and he
thought it was committed under the in
fluence of liquor. He also stated that Sny
der's friends entertained great doubts as to
his entire sanity. The court; however, did
not seem to see many mitigating circum
stances in the offence, as they sentenced
him to pay • a 'fine of $lOO, and to be im
prisoned in the Eastern Penitentiary for
twelve years.

ARRESTED ON A CHARGE OF ROBBING
THE MAIL.—On Sunday afternoon Levi
Nixdorf, William Nixdorf and Henry Fel
ler of this city were arrested by Officer
Gundaker on complaint of J. J. Cochran,
Postmaster, charging them with robbing
the United States mail. The facts as far as
elicited up to the present time appear to
be these: On Sunday morning George Hart
man, who has the contract for carrying the
mull between this place and Colebrook,
found twenty-three letters hid under a
trough in his livery stable. Two of the
young men charged with the offence were
at the time of their arrest in the employ of
Mr. Hartman as mail carriers, the other
had been a short time previously. The
mail bug, when returned to the Post Office,
was locked as usual, and the letters had
not been missed, although they appear to
have been mailed on the Ath of last month.
When found the letters were open, and it is
supposed 'they got but a small amount of
money for their trouble. The persons
charged with the offence had the mailbag
in their possession at the time the letters
were taken, and it would seem incumbent
on them to account for their mysterious
disappearance. His Honor, the Mayor,
after hearing the above facts, committed
the Messrs. Nixdorf to prison, in default of
$2,000 each, for a further hearing on Mon
day, Feller giving security for the required
amount for his appearance.
A further hearing was had on Monday
afternoon before His Honor, the Mayor, who
committed the three in default of $2,000 bail
to ,appear at the next term of the United
Slates District Court.
PASTORAL LETTER OF BISHOP WOOD.-
We have received a copy of the Pastoral
Letter of Right Reverend James Frederic
Wood, D. D., Bishop of Philadelphia,
addressed to the clergy and laity of the
diocese on the occasion of his visit to Rome.
On the 29th of this month the Catholic
Church throughout the world celebrates the
festive commemoration of the martyrdom
of the holy apostles St. Peter and St. Paul.
This being the eighteen hundredth time of
the celebration is to be observed with mark
ed and peculiar solemnity. The Holy Father
has chosen this occasion to call together the
prelates of the Catholic Church from all
parts of the world, inviting them to assist
at a solemn canonization, and to unite with
him in commemoration of the martyrdom
of the great Apostles. Bishop Wood on
taking his departure has addressed a most
beautiful letter to the clergy and laity of
his diocese. He thanks them for their gen
erous contributions in aid of the Pope,
amounting to $60,000, commends to their
care the numerous charitable institutions of
the church, and announces that the Very
Rev. William O'Hara, D. D., is left in
charge of the spiritual affairs of his flock,
while the oversight of the temporal affairs
of the diocese is committed to the direction
of Rev. Aug. J. McConomy, Secretary and
Chancellor to the Bishop. Father Mc-
Conomy is well and most favorably
I known to the citizens of Lancaster.
Bishop Wood says of him : " This is not
the first time he has filled this most respon
sible duty. During our absence on a for
mer occasion, he was entrusted with this
charge, and so acquitted himself as to de
serve our united and cordial confidence."
THE TUNIKERS.—TiIe Frederick, Md .
Union says the annual meeting of this well
known denomination of Christians will be
hold at Pipe Creek, Md., on the 11th ofJune.
At the Annual Meeting of 1866, held near
Waynesboro', Franklin County. Pa., it was
decided, "that there be no public preaching
at thoplace where the Council is held," and
"that there shall be no boarding tent put
up at the place of meeting, to entertain and
feed a mixed multitude, as before," but
"that the Church holding the meeting shall
make arrangements to receive and enter
tain the brethren and sisters privately." It
is said the venerable Peter Need, at present
residing near Dayton, Ohio, and perhaps
the oldest preacher of that persuasion now
living in the United States, will be present
on the occasion. He is a native of Carroll
County, and well known to all the Tunkers
throughout the Union. He is now engaged
in preparing a work of an interesting
character in relation to the religion and
early history of the Tunkers. His Book of
Discipline is an authority in the Church of
the highest order. The Rev. Mr. Rhine
hart, of Virginia, will also be there.

the needy and homeresi ones in after years,
applied: to the. Legislatlim,for. a Matter,
'which was obtained March Ist, 1860, giving
it the title of "Home for Friendles Children
for the City and County of Lancaster."
the Act of Incorporation, the Mana
gers are authorized to thke under - their
guardianship, all vagrants whose parents
cannot, hrwhose vices render them unfit
to take care of them: They are also au
thorized to bind them'ont as apprentices to
some useful trade eremployment. Another
fact is, it is free from all sectarian influence,
the managers being of all denominations.
They . strike at the beginning of evil, and by
training these children for useful, respecta
ble citizens, lessen the number who crowd ,
our Prison and Alms House, and drain the
public treasury. Since its commencement
484 children have been sheltered. 170 chil
dren (including soldiers' orphans,) are now
being provided- for in the `" Home" There
were times when the prospects were very
discouraging, but through• a kind Provi
dence the daily wants of the little inmates
have been supplied. The building now oc
cupied was purchased when the " Home' ,
was considered an experiment—but we now
feel it is no longer such, but that the time
has fully come when a permanent "Home"
is absolutely necessary.
The Managers propose purchasing ground
upon which to erect a building suitable for
the purpose. They wish to have it large
enough to accommodate as many of the
friendless children of the city and county
as are ever likely to be offered them ! and
to be so erected,, finished and furnished,
that it will not merely be a shelter, but a
Home for the little ones, a place in all their
after lives to be looked back upon with
affection. To realize their plans, they need
at least $30.000 ; but they will , begin opera
tions as soon as $15.000 are paid or pledged.
They now appeal to the city and county to
furnish the meansfor this good work.
Let the rich give their hundreds, and the
poor their lesser sums. They look to the
widows for their mites, and to the children
for their pennies; they desire particularly
to have the children interested, and have
concluded to send a copy of this circular to
all the Public and Private School Teachers
and Sunday School Superintendents in the
city and county.
Each will receive with the circular a small
book in which they desire the teacher or
superintendent to record the names of all
contributors, and desire them to act as
treasurer for the School, and forward the
amount of money to the President of the
Board of Managers, whose address will be
found below. The names of all contributors
will be printed, a copy will be Sled in the
Home, and a' copy placed in the corner
stone of the new building.
Let every child in the city and county
feel that he or she, no matter how young or
old, should give enough to put at least one
brick in the new Home. Come forward
children and take it share of stock in the
Home—stock ten cents a share. The Mana
gers also desire the ladies in all the towns
in the county to take an interest and be rep
resented in the institution. It is hoped that
this appeal will be the means of drawing
the attention of benevolent women through
out the county. They appeal to the public
spirited men of the city and county to make
this institution a success. 01 all the chari
ties presented to the consideration of a
people, there are none which should touch
the heart so quickly as those which relate
to the support and welfare of friendless
children. Let all do for these as they would
wish to be done for theirs under similar
circumstances.
The "Home" building is No. 47 South
Queen-st., Lancaster, where donations may
be left at any time. Tbe public are cordially
invited to visit the Institution.

"I consider It a duty which' owe to suffering
humanity to bear testimony to the virtues Of
DR. WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHEIthY. I
have used it—when I have had occasion for any
remedy for Coughs, Colds or sore Throat—for
many years, and never in a single instance has
it tailed to relieve and cure me. I have fre
quently been very hoarse on Saturday, and
looked forward to the delivery of two sermons
on the following day with sad misgivings, but
by a liberal use of the Balsam my hoarseness
has invariably been removed, and I have
preached without difficulty.
I commend it to my brethren in the ministry
and to podia speakers generally, as a certain
remedy for the bronchial troubles to which we
are peculiarly exposed."

Sir - Schenck's eaweed Tonic.
This medicine, invented by Dr. J. H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, Is Intended to dissolve the food and
make It into chyme, the firetprocess of digestion. By
cleansing the stomach with Schenck's Mandrake
Pills, the Tonic soon restores the appetite, and food
that could not be eaten before using it will be easily
digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenck's Put
monic Syrup unless the stomach and liver is made
healthy and the appetite restored, hence the Tonic
and Pills are required In nearly every case of con
sumption. A half dozen bottles of the Seaweed Tonic
and three or four boxes of the Mandrake Pills will
cure any ordinary case of Dyspepsia..
Dr. Schenck makes professional visits In New York,
Boston, and at hie principal Office In Philadelphia
every week. See daily papers of each place, or his
pamphlet on consumption for his days for visitation
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two like

let.. A Young Lady returning to her
ountry home, after a sojourn of a few months
In the City, was hardly recognized by her
friends. In place of a coarse, rustic, flushed
face, she had a soft ruby complexion of almost
marble smoothness, and instead of twenty
three she really appeared but eighteen. Upon
inquiry as to the cause of so great a change,
she plainly told them that she used the cm-
CASSIAN BeLat, and considered it an invalua
ble acquisition to any Lady's toilet. By its use
any Lady or Gentleman can improve their per
sonal appearance an hqndred fold. It is simple
in its 'Combination, as Nature herself 113 simple,
yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in drawing im
purities from, also healing, cleansing and
1,-autifylng the skin and complexion. By its
threat action on the cuticle it thaws from it all
its impurities, kindly healing the same, and
leaving the suriace as Nature intended it
should be, clear, soft, smooth and beautiful.

Monday, June 3—Evening.
The receipts of Beef Cattle during the past
week have again been small, being confined to
800 head—a decrease of about 100 head, as Com
pared with the stock of the Previous week. As
a consequence, increased activity in all grades
has prevailed, and holders have experienced
no difficulty in establishing &still further ad
vance. The opening in the early part of the
week was attended by an active demand which
has continued, and to-day, there being a large
number of buyers on hand, the offerings were
all closed out:at 18X421c for choice, extra at le®
180, and common from about 140 up to 150 p lb.
The market closed less drm, and the probabili
ties are that next week the offerings will be
made at a decline.
The following are the particulars of the sales:

notwithstanding that the offerings generally
are made at a fraction of a decline. We notice
sales of springers at $45®70, and cows and
calves at $80&80.
Sualtr..—The receipts, though not so heavy
by one-half as those of the previous week, still
continue largely in excess o' the demand, and
about one-half of the 6,000 head will remain
unsold. Buyers and sellers have been apart in
their views, and the few sales effected have
been at a decline, say from 8 up to 740811) gross.

LI ARM FOR SAL E.—THE UNDER
r signed offers for sale or rent one of the best
WHEAT, CORN AND GRASS FARMS in the
County of Culpeper, Va. It has upon it a fine
and handsome HOUSE of modern structure,
with nine rooms of fine size, a large pantry
and lire.place; the out-buildings consist of a
large Kitchen of four rooms, a eimoke House,
Corn House, and Stable. This farm contains
635 ACRES OF LAND,
130 Acres of which is in Timber. It has plenty
of running water upon It; every field can be
made accessible to water, and the most of them
have it. All of the fencing upon this farm was
destroyed by the war, but there is now two
hundred acres under fence, and the land Is
adapted to all kinds of grain and grasses. I
have one of the best farms in Jefferson county,
but it possesses no advantages over my farm in
Culpeper. This land lies within four mites of
Brandy Station, upon the Alexandria and
Orange Railroad, and within five miles of Cul
peper Court House. The land is clear of rocks
of any kind, and all kinds of farming imple
ments can be used to great advantage upon it;
in fact.this farm can be farmed at one-half the
cost of any other hind in Jefferson or any
other county in the valley of Virginia, and
labor can be gotten at one-half the price, and
much better labor than we have In the valley.
This farm also has a fine Apple and Peach
Orchard in fall bearing order.
If not sold, the subscriber will rent the farm
to any good Pennsylvania farmer for ten years.

AS YOU LIKE IT SKIRT.
35 North Sth St., corner of Filbert. 35
This Is not only a new fashion, but a new
article of SKIRT, made ou an entirely new
principle, so novel and yet so perlect the ladies
contend it should be called Perfection.
We would here call particular attention to
the AS YOU LIKE IT, or flexible Joint ex
tending down the front of the skirt; It is so
constructed that the springs fold inwardly,
but not outwardly, and readily yield to the
slightest pressure, thus allowing them to col
lapse, so that the skirt occupies the smallest
possible space whilst sitting, riding, or in pass
ing through a crowd, and yet tho moment the
pressure Is removed, the skirt resumes its
original and beautiful shape.
The novelty and utility of this contrivance
need but be seen to be appreciated.
But for want of space we might here publish
thousands of extracts Irom letters, we are
daily receiving, speaking in the highest praise
of Mese Skirts.
Axe now so well known for their superior
SHAPE, ILATERIA.L and WORKMANSHIP,
that it is perhaps unnecessary for us to speak
of them, further LIIIIIL to say that we have
greatly enlarged our assortment of Styles, both
of our own make and importation, and can
now safely defy competition.
