suplocd that he had gone into one of those

all the louder. At length, some one rolled
the prostrate man over to sec how he was

to restore him, and by that time it was too

them, and if no moisture is found on the
rim of the cover or the niblier rim. they arc
air tight and will keep any length of time ;
but if the least drop of vagrant juice has
found its way out they must be smeared
over with sealing mixture or the fruit will

occurred in Bedford, entailing a loss vari
ously estimated at between $JO,00o and $;X),
Oot). We have learned the following mea
gre particulars concerning it : The alarm
was sounded at about 9:4." p. m., and as
soon as possible tlie fire apparatus was taken
to the scene of conflagration. The fire is
said to have originated in the back part of
the dry goods store of pinheimer& Sons,
and before anything could be done tost ay
tbe fury of the flames tlie entire building was
wrapped in a sheet of fire. From this build
ing the fire extended to the office and pri
vate residence of Dr. Hughes and the tin
store of Mr. Rush Mardortf. lioth of which
were burned to the ground The flames
then communicated themselves to the
dwelling house owned by Hon. William
Hartley, and occupied by Mr. William Di
bert as a private residence, and in half an
hour nothing but tlie bare walls were left
standing. The walls of the latter house,
Grant has bought the large double
house at 3 East Sixty -sixth 6treet,
in this city, and it is 6aid that he is
to make New York his home in the
future. The house is new and has
never been occupied. It has a
brown stone front, bay windows,
and is four stories tall. It is "7
feet wide and SO feet deep. The
house is one door from .Fifth avenue
and overlooks Central Park. It is
in a part of tho city that has just
been built up. Ten years ago there
was not a bouse to be seen on this
part of Manhattan Island, and only
six years ago a bear was killed
within a stone's throw of General
(irants new house. The bear had ,
escaped irom v.enirai 1 ant
Menagerie and was going to take a
bath in Kcckman s rond. 2ow the
whole region is covered with brown
stone houses. The price asked for
General Grants house was $100,l)iKJ,
but it was bousht for S'W.OOO. Tlie
house is very plain. It gtands at
the end of a row of dwellings all
alike, with the exception of General
Grant's house, which is Larger than

A most daring attempt was made to rob
Mr. Wm. Hughes, of Fayette county, who
lias an interest in the nickle basin of Alle
gheny township, this county, last Mon
day night. It appears that Mr. Hughes had
been staying at the house of Wm. Shadrec,
and that !ie bad abont his person some
carrency. On the night above mentioned
he was awakened by bearing some one in
the room. IxKiking uj he saw a man com
ing toward the lied. He immediately jump
ed from the bed and seized the intruder,
who after considerable scuffle seized an
ax that was lying at the room door, struck
Mr. Hnghes a terrible blow on the head,
cutting a frightful gash ; lie then scizetl a
gnn and clnhbing it felled him to the
ground, after which he ransacked the
room banting for the pocket book contain
ing the currency, which he failed to find.
Mr. Hugees1 loud criea before lie was pros
trated had alarmed some of the neighbors
who arrived soon after the would be robber
and murderer had made his r--ape.
In his charge to the (irand Jury this
week; the Recorder of Xew York called es
pecial attention to the reprehensible habit of
carrying concealed weapons, and suggested
that the jurors should consider this prelimi
nary violation of the law iu the cases of ft'
lonius assault which would be brought be
fore them. The Recorder held that in any
civilized city there is no necessity for carry
ing such weapons, and that every person
who desires to go armed should apply for a
license and be duly registered. We quite
agree with the learned Recorder. Tlie man
who carries a pistol has already made tip
his mind to kill or wound somebody. He
may not have decided ujion the particular
person ; as to that he will probably be gov
erned by circumstances ; but he would not
want a pistol if he had not determined to
shoot it at somebody, either for protection
or for revenge. 'ow, a few lesions in tlie
art of self-defence from our friend Colonel
Moustery will cost no more than a pistol
and will be a hundred times more valuable
to every gentleman, and a thousand times
less dangerous to tlie community. A double
conviction and a double sentence upon eve
ry rough, thief, rascal, and robber caught in
crime with a weapon npou his person would
soon break up this detestable habit, and re
lieve the country from a disgraceful reputa
tion. Spirilof the 77mr. '
