cause there were a number who Wed to
take part in the work, and the "cleaning

is surprising what an amount of work can
he performed in so short a time when there
is a general turn out with the necessary
implements; yet there are some who are
too busy or too indifferent to lend a help

IgirThe. bill—says the Newville Star—
to secure uniformity of text-books iu com
mon schools was defeated in the house on
the 11th lest., by a decisive vote. As it
came from the senate it had been so amen
ded as to preclude jobbery. Both poli
tical parties were to be represented. and
the Superintendent of Common Schools
was given a veto power, his single voice
being sufficient to defeat a choice of books.
The price of books was to be reduced fifty
per cent., and changes were not to be ar
bitrary for the term of five years. In this
shape the bill had no active friends. But
it had very active enemies in the publish
ing houses who now yearly fleece the peo
ple and the school hoards through whose
agency they act. This result might have
been foreseen.

The BENNEUOFF Ronann.—The ar
rest of James Saeger, in the Far West, on
the charge of being the principal in the
celebrated Bennehoff robbery, in 'the oil re
gions of Pennsylvania, has brought outin
-the-Lancaster-Intelligencer-the-following
brief account of his swift journey on the
"downward path : "Saeger came to Lan
caster in 1856, and was a student at Frank
lin and Marshall College for about a year
and a half. His father had recently died;
after accumulating property to the a
mount of 875,000. He was an upright
man, of fine business talents,.and the vil
lage of Saegerville is named after him.—
The son who was an only child, was too
liberally provided for on leaving home by
his guardian and indulgent mother. lid
came to Lancaster with a thousand dol
lars in his trunk, which he at once pre
pared to spend in riotous living. That
NUM was spent to corrupt himself and a few
students among whom be associated.—
After remaining at college 18 months, he,
left without graduating and went into
business in Venango County. With such
habits as he had Named, success was very
improbable, and he soon run through his
own share of his father's estate, and ruin
ed his mother. He loafed about for years
and finally became the leading character
in the Bennehoff robbery. He stopped in
Lancaster a week or so before the robbery
was committed, and stated to an acquain
tance here that he had been spending
some' time in Philadelphia, and while
there he had slept in the engine houses
"with the bays." There is every reason
to believe that his visit to Philadelphia
was made for the express imrPose of en
gaging the services of the'professiona l bur
glars who were his partners in the rob
bery."
A NEW FEATURE IN ORGANS—WA
TERS' CONCERTO PARLDR ORGAN. —The
great merit of the concerto stop is, that it
approxiniates• nearer than any other to
the human voice. If we avert the atten
tion from the instrument while this deli
cate addition is being operated, the im
pression is .instantaneous that it is to the
human voice under exquisite culture that
we listen. Of course the origin of this
improvement, and the exact manner in
which its advantages have been made so
prominent in this organ, are known to the
patentee alone; but we doubt if the in
ventor can make it plain why the result
has occurred. The effect of the concerto
attachment is simply 'softening and vocal
izing. It seems to catch a note that
might hake been shrill and reedy, and at
one soMke it into something as sweet and
musical as a human whisper. The writer
was informed by Mr. Waters that on ac
count of the popularity of the new stop,
the instruments were bought up almost
as rapidly as it was possible to manufac
ture them.—Blooklin Union. '

missed the stone, which went through nn

of the two should pay the cost. The evi

good one, and that if the second man had
not dipped his head he would have been
struck. "Therefore," said the magistrate,

the first man didn't injure the window,
and the window would not have been in
