romance, fictions, lies, velvet and feathers—lit

scoundrels in epaulette, with a love of a mous

ways ends most charmingly. Hundreds of per

Tan first haste of autumn came a few days ago,
lieemingly before the time. The air of early
morning, now, and the dews of evening, are
marked by the characteristics of fall. Already
the foliage is losing its verdure, and the tints
of autumn are warming the landscape. Agri
culturists again tell us that we shall have an
early winter and a long one. They base this
prediction upon certain signs said to be unmis
takeable. Among others, they say that the
husk upon the growing corn crop envelops the
ears to the very ends, and is thick and close
wrapped. When the reverse is the ease, they
say the following winter will be a mild one.
As it is, if our farmer friends are correct, coal
and wood dealers may anticipate a brisk busi
ness.
WHAT BECOSIRS OF IT I—Every now and then
we hear of the remarkable feat of some Teutonic
gentleman disposing of a marvelous quantity of
lager beer, and rising from the table "perfectly
sober." In Met, it is no unusual thing to hear
the lagerian disciples insist that their favorite
beverage will not intoxicate, no matter how
large a quantity may be drank. This reminds
us of a story which is current among the Chi
nese, of a great wine * drinker, who was able to
sit all day at the table, and after consuming
what would have been sufficient to drive the
reason out of half a dozen of men, would rise
up perfectly sober. The Emperor, hearing the
fame of this deep drinker, asked hint to dinner,
that he might test his marvelous powers. As
the story goes, the Emperor had ordered a hol
low figure to be cast in bronze, of the exact size
and model of this man, and, as the wine was
served, for each cup that the guest drank a si
milar cup was poured into the opening on the
top of the head of an image. This went on for
some hours, until at length the bronze statue
overflowed, while the guest continued at the ta
ble, and rose from it perfectly sober.
ROBBEHY.-At a late hour on Friday
night, an elderly man, from the State of Ohio,
was decoyed into an alley near the depot by
some negroes, and there knocked down and
robbed of a purse containing about seventy dol
lars, This morning he made information of
his loss before Alderman Kline, who was satis
fied from the description given that one of the
robbers was a negro named George Dorsey. At
this instant Dorsey happened to be passing along
the pavement in front of the office, when the
Alderman remarked, "why there's Dorsey now."
George, healing his name mentioned, turned
hastily to enter the office, and was just in the
act of setting his foot. inside of the door, when
his eyes met those of the stranger. There was
a mutual recognition 01 the parties ; but before
any words were spoken, George now, fully com
prehending the state of affa'rs, suddenly backed
from the door and fled out Walnut street to
wards the canal. Several persons immediately
followed in pursuit, but George showed superior
fleetness, and made good his escape. While
passing through the alley in the rear of the
Lancasterirm school house, it was observed that
he had throwed something into the yard of
that building, which upon being hunted up was
found to be a purse containing twenty-two dol
lars in bank notes. This the Ohioan identified
as being part of the money stolen from him,
and was no doubt the extent of George's divey
of the proceeds of the robbery.
COURT PROCEEDINGS
TRIAL OF GEORGE STARRY FOR TRU MIIRDIIR OF
GEOROE A. MIFF
Court convened at 8 o'clock A. M. and re
sumed the trial of Geo. Starry, indicted for the
murder of George A. Reiff in this city on the
26th of July last. The following is the
TESTIMONY FOR THE DEFENCE
Moses FUCK, sworn. Was corning up Walnut
street past the prison, when 1 saw a rush out
of the Exchange Restaurant ; seen Starry com
ing out backwards in his shirt sleeves, without
a hat on ; there were about a dozen men follow
ing him and kinking and striking at him ; when
he got out in the street, they closed on him and
fought about a minute; he appeared to get the
better of it; they then fought across the street
towards the j.lil ; Reiff kept hallooing for the
"bloody Fourth to come right this way" ;
Starry begged off, and said he could'nt fight a
regiment ; he retreated past Mines' office, up
towards Third street ; and there the cries fur
the " bloody Fourth " brought a tremendous
crowd of men from the capitol yard; he turned
and retreated down Walnut stieet again; at the
corner, Reiff continued calling for the Fourth
Regiment, and said "give me a piece of
him ; " " give me a handfull of him ; "
whon opposite Omit's Hotel, Starry
was knocked down ; his assailants were
still striking at him, and he begged of them
not to' kill Elixir," Reiff then jrunpetion.Starry's
back, there :was a desperate struggle, and I
heard the report of a pistol: when Reiff was on
Starry I heard cries of "kill him;" "give me a
handful of him," &c.; there were two shots
made; the crowd then scattered, and Starry
made his escape towards the Mayor's office; I
seen two revolvers drawn on Starry at the point
where he was knocked down, and two or three
bowie knives drawn ; this was before the shots
were fired; they were in the hands of those who
were attacking Starry, and hallowing "give me
a handful of him," &e.; Starry was trying to
get away from the crowd from the time I first
seen him; Reiff was prominent among the crowd
at Third and Walnut streets ; seen Reiff strike
at Starry when the latter was down ; took par
ticular notice of Reiff because I was going to
arrest him as the leader of the mob ; I didn't
think that Starry would ever get up alive ;
there were at least two dozen around Starry
kicking and striking at him; when retreating
from the jail towards Third and Walnut street, he
was throwing up his hands and walking back
wards, saying "he could not whip a regiment,"
and begged the crowd not to kill him ; when he
was knocked down at Third and Walnut he
begged the crowdnut to kilkhira; that he would
certaidly (hurt eoMe of thud irr self lieferice.--
The crowd replied "kill the son Of a b—h,
you have got hhil. now." I did not see Starry
at any time hold the pistol as if he was going to
shoot; I saw him all the time until he was
kneolted down ; I did not : get sight of the pistol
at all; up to the tinie that Starry was knocked
down he was holding up his hands, retreating
and begging the crowd not to kill him ; heard
him make no threats ; had a fair view or Starry
from my position ; Reiff w s the most active in
the crowd attacking Starry and hallooing for the
"bloody fourth;" lam a police officer in this
city ; supposed Starry would be killed, and
had calculated to arrest Reiff as the leader of
the mob; it was irupessible for Starry to get
away from the crowd ; TO . get
- sun -- neigged — "for God's sake to let
.him go ;" he retreated towards Third and
Walnut, as the crowd was not so great in teat
direction ; the man that was shot in the back
was striking and kicking at Starry at the time ;
he struck Starry when the la ter was down ; he
was with Reiff all the way through.
By the Commonwealth.—There was a great
many people in the street at the time ; had
never seen Reiff before ; he had a Zouave dress
on ; there were others had the same dress on ;
Reiff appeared to be the moat vehement of the
party, which was the reason I took particular
notice of him ; heard hirit hallooing for the
" bloody fourth ;" saw at no time the pistol in
Starry's hand ; Reiff was coming down Walnut
street when I first seen him.
Wittum Caws, sworn.—l was coming up
Third street, and when at Walnut saw a crowd
down that street; got upon the steps at Omit's
Hotel and saw fighting across the street; Starry
started up toward the corner when the crowd
holloed "there goes the sun of a b—h, kill
him;" when he got up to the corner, he
was headed off; I noticed one man having hold
of his arm, and alfout that time I heard the re
port of the pistol; when he was headed off Star
ry attempted to get away; heard exclamations
of "kill him"—"kill the son of a b—h;" this
was before the shooting; I saw one man in the
crowd have a knife; I believed he belonged
to the Fourth regiment; the crowd appeared to
be pretty much all of the Fourth regiment;
Reiff was one of the crowd who were attacking
Starry; Starry's assailants appeared to belong
to company B; I heard Starry when he was
down beg of the crowd not to kill him; I d.d
not see Starry have a pistol at all; when Starry
was down there was a dozen or more striking
at him; there were two or three hundred men
about urging on the fight; at third and Walnut
street I heard the cry of "go in Fourth;" Starry
was trying to get away from the crowd when I
first saw him until the time that Reiff was shot;
I was about four yards from Starry when he
was down; was standing on the door steps at
the time; was about two feet higher than the
pavement; when Starry retreated at Third and
Walnut towards the corner of the Capitol park,
the crowd surrounded hint ; when I first saw
Starry it was when they were fighting in the
the street, opposite the Exchange; they were ,
about a dozen attacking him then; while they
were attacking him Starry was throwing up his
hands trying.to keep the crowd off; I live in
Media, Delaware county; I belonged to com
pany F, Fourth regiment.
Cron .&atnined.—l saw no pistol in Starry's
hand: seen nothing of Starry after the shooting;
seen a knife in the hands of one man.
JOHN Annmonr , MOM —Live in York county;
was a member of the 2d Pennsylvania Regiment;
was in the Exchange , building on the second
floor ; heard a noise, and came out; saw Starry
crossing the gutter into the street ; some eight
or twenty men were after him, saying "here he
Is"—"kill the son-of-a--h;" Starry was walk
ing backward across the street, and then on the
pavement up the street towards Kline's office;
it appeared as if everybody wanted to get a
blow at him ; the crowd pursued him up the
street; but I lust sight of Starry; the crowd
mule in a swarm from the Capital ground ; the
crowd stopped at the corner for a short time,
and then it made another surge towards Omit's
hotel ; Starry was going backwards at the time
1 first seen him, and the crowd was hallooing
"here he is"—"kill him"—"let me at him;
Starry was going backwards all the time with
his hands lifted, motioning the crowd back.

WHLT'S all this talk about health and disease,
and systems of diet and medicine growled
old Comm, the other morning, laying down
hie newspaper in disgust. "The whole thing's
in a nutshell, and the doctors know it as well
as I do, though they pretend they don't. It's
all a matter of temperament and hereditary
weakness or strength of constitution. You
can't expect a sickly man or woman to produce
healthy offspring, any more than a withered
and distorted tree can bear ripe and delicious
fruit. A large portion of our people are under
vitalized, and their offspring are accordingly
feeble, thin blooded, scrofulous and consump
tive. No matter how regularly or virtuously
they may live—no matter how judicious and
scientific may be their medical attendance, they
lack that vital force, which can only be trans
mitted by a healthy ancestry, and usually suc
cumb to the first serious attack of inn*. Take,
on the contrary, a man whose progenitors were
sound, whose chest is broad and lungs vigorous,
whose blood letraye no deficiency of red
globules, whose fibres are tough and muscles
hard, and his constitution will stand a course
of abuse sufficient to kill a dosen weak men.
Despite all the books .on hygiene and temper
ance that ever were written, he may, and often
does, live to a good old'age, with a lair share
of health. A pure stock is if just as much im
portance to, men.as to race-horses. Diet !
medieine !--nonsense !" The old gentlemen
here pitched into the, rare lvef-ateak with a will,
stopped Nary Ann as she was is the act of im
bibing her third cup of coffee, and threatened is
cut her off with a 'shilling if she did'nt atop
drinking that "poisonous stuff," and f Tighten
the roses on her cheeks with a plentiful dose of
fresh air and exercise.
