Two Months in Jail for Pulling a Man's Nose. Judge Scudder, in the Superior Crimi nal Court, on the 21st, rendered his de cision in the matter of the Common wealth against Daniel S. Curtis, Who was accused of assault and battery against J. 31. Churchill, and had appealed from the A lower Court. Judge Scudder remarked that the position of the defendant at the bar, together with all the surrounding leai r n c t uill the s t a Courtlcesof to he facts before imposing sentence. The vidence in the case was then recapitula the case, ti em steoemeoendeitodewraaril d, and the social standing of both the complainant and defendant briefly con sidered,' The law points involved in the case were then eliminated. The Court' observed that the matter of private in jury belonged to another tribunal, but in this matter it was the Commonwealth that was concerned, and the penalty, in the , ,-04 case, so far as possible, should be'in pro ; portion to the offence committed. The defendant pleaded nolo contendere, but that act of retraction did not justify or lessen the nature of the crime committed. The object of Punishment is for the prevention of crime. The manner of punishment , was /stated, and all of which were embodied in a sentence in a spirit of exact juetice. No person should be punished to excess for the benefit of others, yet that punishment should be in proportion to the offence committed and the character of the defendant carefully considered/at the same time. Different modes of;punishment have different ef fects on different Individuals. What would 'be a punishment to one person might not be to another. A short term of imprisonment might prove more of a pimishment to one man than a long term would to another man; and a small fine might be heavy to one individual, and a '•• large fine no punishment to another indi vidual. The Court then alluded to the position assumed, and still assumed by the defendant, in making the assault to defend his honor, which he believed had been insulted. That, however, had nothing to do with . A . , the Court, and it was but proper for it to •'---:!, discuss it, for if the assault was justifiable • defendant might assume to have a right to repeat the assault. ' The law has only to deal with the individual. And social po sition and intelligence should be no ex cure for the acts of the defendant. On the contrary, they only' aggravate the I matter. In conclusion, the Courtisaid it was at a loss to find any excuse, justifies. . :,11 1 tion or extenuation in the matter, and r --, :• • - • there was no reason why the defendant at i • 1 : • the bar should be treated_ any differently ' ti .',than any other party under like dream ' •:., stances- and therefore the Court saw no ~., 4 'reason why the punishment of the Court : 1 below was not correct and why not de , ..:.,: mended to answer the ends of public .: :' '' justice. . . _ 1 Judie Scudder en imosed senence which was that the th defend p ant, Daniel t S .

The North German Correspondent pub lishes the following report of this .disas ter, of which we heard by telegraph lately: We regret to ha'-e to report one of the most terrible and melancholy acci dents that has happenet Germany for many years. The colli rs of the Barg colliery in the Plauenschen Grund, near Dresden, assembled, as uspal, for prayers on the morning of the 2nd of August, and afterwards dispersed to their work. In a short time a terrible explosion oc curred. At' about a quarter to six o'clock a thick column of smoke was seen to ' issue from the mouth of the Segen Gottes shaft. This was followed in ten minuies' space by a similar one from the Hoff nungs shaft. Numbers of wo.rkmen, to ' gether with the wives and families of those that were below, assembled around the various entrances to the mine, but the smoke and vapors frustrated all attempts to enter for some hours. After nine o'clock it was at last found possible to descend. Three dead bodies were lying near the mouth of the pit, 'and their con dition, as well as the Butt of the cars, which' were broken into mere heap of fragments, bore witness to the force of the explosion. This renders it highly Improbable that any of the 326 men 'who were engaged in the two shafts shoulttill survilve, with the n . exceptioof two r three who were close to the mouth off the pit. Their death must have been instantaneous, and many of the bodies are so, disfigured that they cannot be recognized. are much charred and burned. ft is calculated that at least 321 colliers perished, two-thirds of whom had families dependent upon them. No blame is attributed to the ar rangements in the' mine, but it is sup posed that the heat of the i - eather, pre vented the foul air escaping by its usual channels, and that it therefOre _collected in the passages no longer used, and was ignited by the carelessness of one of the unfortunate colliers. The warmth and sultriness of the external air may alio nave prevented i r he workmen from no ticing the oppressive character of the at mosphere In the shafts. But few bodies have yet been recovered, as the ventila tion of the mine has not yetbeen restored, and, since competent authorities declare it to be utterly impossible dud any of the unfortunate sufferers should have sur vived' the' shock and the foul air, it is con. sidered wise not to risk any more lives. PATarcx Pcracias, was seated on the track of the Monnt Carbon Railroad, overlooking the turbid waters of the Mis .sissii)pi. He had lbeen seated there but a few moments when • along came Mathias Schaefer, a German resident of the place, who accosted Pat in this wise: "Mr. Par •cell, I've a notion to drown myself!" "Well, if you want to drown yourself," •coolly. replied Pat, "why don 3 you go along and do it ?" "If you don't come," rejoined Schaefer, "I'll do 3 sure—you'd better come"— ; saying which he proceeded to the edge of the water. "Go on with' the show," was the answer, "it's none of my funeral." "Come quick, if you are -coming. I tell you agaiii, you'd better •come, was Schaefer's final appeal, to the imperturable Pat, who maintained his seat on the railroad track. "Proceed with your exhibition," came from Pat agatn, whereupon the determined Schaefer waned out into the stream, sat down, and actually drowned himself. Pat , mention -ed the circumstance to a passer-by a few momenta atter, and when reproved for not rushitig in and rescuing the foolish man, retorted with some spirit, that if he - wanted -to drown himself it would go .pretty hard with the man that might at tearto, interfere with his arrangements. afro, 111. , Bulletin. C _ SNEAX THIET4 Tife following discription of various kinds of sneak thieves is from an article on "Our Criminal Population" in the Galaxy for September. The article is from the pen -of Mr. Edward Crapsey, who has made some reputation by similar sketches in our magazines before. He is well known as an industrious reporter of police matters, and probably no one in the country better understands the subject -than does he': Damper sneaks are a little company not more than one hundred in number. By "damper," a thief means a sate, for the reason that it is supposed to put a damper upon his hopes. Hundreds of business men in New York can tell from costly experience how damper sneaks operate.: A man of intense respectability of dress and demeanor, enters a broker's office, and asks to look at the directory, or some times to write a note. Permission being given him, he takes care to put himself inside the railing and as near the safe as possible. If its door is ajar, he stands examining the directory, or writing for a moment or two, when two of his con federates enter, and the broker is immediately engrossed by the press ing needs of his new customers. While he is thus engaged, the first sneak, seeing his opportunity, and whatever valuable he can lay his hands upon passes out of the office, always pausing as he goes to thank the broker for his courtesy. Presently the confed erates leave, to make further inquires before. concluding a bargain, and it is always some moments, and often hours, before the broker discovers his loss. Robberies of this kind are , constantly being perpetrated, and the damper -sneaks probably have a mote certain and-a larger income than any other class of thieves. Bank -sneaks steal far greater amounts at a time; but their thefts are 'less frequent because their opportunities are more rare. Tin boxes, containing large amounts in bonds, are not habitually left exposed to the grasp of the bank sneaks, who have been following them for hours, perhaps, and from place to place, but the damper sneaks can safely count upon a careless ness of the business community which it ' seems impossible to cure. - Sate doors are left open during business hours, and while bankers persist in leaving their valuables thus exposed to the enterprise of a most adroit and active class of rogues, they yet join in the hue and cry against the police when a robbery is com nutted which their imprudence alone has rendered possible. Safe blowers do not have more than seventy-five - names upon their muster rolls, but the little array is far more dan gerous to the hoarded wealth than its numbers indicate. Commonly known as burglars, their skill is first called on to gain entrance to a building, which is gen erally accomplished by means of false keys made from impressions in wax, pre viously taken from the genuine keys. The "blowers," being in - the building,' proceed with a rapidity and an attention to detail made possible by long experi ence. First, they lower the windows of the room about an inch to 'prevent the breakage of glass, and ~text they wrap the safe in wet blankets to deaden the noise of the expected concussion. The preliminaries thus arranged, they drill holes in 'the door of the safe near the lock, and these having been filled- with powder, a fuse is attached; the explosion takes place, the safe is torn open, and three minutes suffice for the operators to seize its contents and escape from the building. This is the most hazardous of all robberies, and is never resorted to unless the outlaws are sure that the con tents of the safe are sufficiently valuable to compensate for the risk incurred. Hence, it is always prefaced by a careful, and often protracted, scenting of the se lected premises, with the design of ob taining exact information of the profits to be expected of the contemplated ad venture. Second-story sneaks are not more than one' hundred in number, and owe their name to a recently devised expedient for reaching the coveted valuables of honesty. Formerly they worked * what was called the "eatable lay," and for a time a quite profitable "lay" it was. Generally work ing in couples, they chose for their opera tions the hour when the dinner table was spread, and sauntering through some quiet, respectable street, selected a house where the basement door was ajar. One posting himser there, the other ascended the stoop and rang the front door bell. Up went the servant, and while the ring er detained her with persistent inquiries for some mythical Jones or Smith, assert ed to reside in the neighborhood, his con federate below walked into the deserted dining room, and walked out again with the spoons and silverware concealed un der his coat. But the metropolis has so advanced, and the basement floors of houses having silver are now so infested with servants, that the "eataWe lay" has fallen into desuetude, and second story sneaks have arisen. They can only work in secluded streets; and during the sea son when the dinner hour of six o'clock is after dark. While the inmates of the house are all down stairs at dinner, the sneak boldly scales oie of the pillars of the stoop, and thus reached- a second floor window, which he opens with an admire ble little apparatus specially prepared for the purpose. Once within the house, he has usually an easy task before him, for he finds the doors unlocked, and roams unimpeded through all the upper 'rooms, rummaging all the closets and bureaus, and siezing whatever he can find. Hav ing gathered all that is portable and val uable, he goes down the pillar again, or sneaks downstairs and makes his exit by the front door ' to rejoin his "pal," who has meantime been engaged in an opera tion which he styles "piping off thecop," by Which he means that he' has been . watching the movements 'of 'the police man, in order to intercept him with some. plausible device if he should give. signs of approaching the house while the sneak is working it. This sort of robbery- has lately become quite common, and the dia mond thefts in dwellings, which• seemed so inexplicable, were all done 'by' these sneaks. ----- STRAW HOUSES.—An Englishman has lately patented the following process for preparing houses out of straw. The straw is first cut up into pieces, and after Soaking for a time in a saturated solution of soluble glue, is dried; and then, by ineans of a machine, pressed into com pact bundles or bricks, which are cora pletely Incombustible. The 'house is built up of these masses of straw, as if really of bricks, the successive layers be ing united by cement or mortar. As an excellent nonconductor of heat, these houses are warm in winter, cool in sum mery and always dry, and can be erected at little cost. ITITSBURGH arSCErENCIVEI .

They cleanse the stomach, re lax the liver andput it:to work; then the appetite becomes good; the food digests and makes good blood; the patient begins to grow In flesh; the diseased matter ripens Into the lungs, and the patient outgrows the disease and gets well. This is the only way to medicinesumton. To these three Dr. J. H. Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his unrivaled success In the treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pull monk) Syrup ripens the morbid - matter In the lungs, nature throws it olf by au easy expectora tion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a MIR h t cough will throw it on'. and the patient has rest and the lungs begin to heal. T., do this, the Seaweed 'ionic and Mandrake Pilla must be keel) , used to cleanse the stomach and liver. so that the Palmonic Syrup and the fond will make good blood.

Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, does not try to move cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Me. the caus and they will all stop of their own accord. No one can be cured of Consump tion, Liver Complaint, Dyrpepsia, Catarrh, Canker, Ulcerated Throat , unless the liver and stomach are made healthy.. tinge person tiu consumption, of course the In some way are diseased, either tubercles, *beams, bronchial Irrltatio_ ,n pleura adhesion, or the lungs are a maas of luffammation and rut decaying. theuc cases what wasting done?
