men arrested, were held in bail ; to appear as
witnesses, and the balance of the party were
bound over for appearance at court. The gay
Lizzie was "not at home," and escaped arrest.
The 'public will rejoice to learn that one of the
principal dens of infamy in 'Harrisburg is
likely to be broken up, and it is hoped the
officers of the law will continue to pounce
upon Such:institutions until not one shall be
left within the limits of our city, the reputa

count of the numerous houses of ill-fame that
have been permitted to exist here.

THE MELT QuEsrms.—The meat questicie,
of late, seems to be talked about - very much
by our exchanges. Housekeepers and °them
interested in a reduction of the high prices or
neat, are discussing that some way be adopted
to bring butchers down to reasonable buying
terms. They recommend that the best plan
for all to pursue is to purchase only one-half
their usual quantity of meat, and make up for
it by eating other food, quite as riouTi7.hing
and teSs expensive. The family 'barge:bin -in.
many instances has been called upon for an
opinion, and decided that animal food of this
season of the year was more injurious to the
human system than the farinace.ks and vege
table food that may be obtained at cheaper

SANFORD'S —This distinguished
Troupe has bee wi,kti us for two nights, and
we hre decidedly of, opinion that the great
reputation which thekhave enjoyed for Years
was meritedly bestoweß upon them indeed,
we think they are constantly improving in
their performances. Of all the operatic troupes
frequenting our city from time to time,no one
is equal to Sanford's. The young; the middle
aged, and the old who attend their perform
ances, all go away speaking in terms of uni
versal commendation. The curious, the lov
ers of pleasant entertainments, and the seek
ers of amusement, .re alike pleased by all
their efforts. —Reading Daily Reporter.
The people of Harrisburg should not forget
that Sanford's troupe will appear at the Opera
House, this evening, in a grand bill of attrac
tions. This will be the last night of the
season. On Monday the company will start
up the Cumberland Valley. To eveubodywe
would say, go to Sanford's to-night.

at wholesale and retail The instrument will tell with nu,
failing accuracy tho hygrometical condition of the atmos
phere, thus foretelling thechanges of the weather from
12 to 48 hours in advance. The acting moving principle
is the pietule of a flower, found in ,yria, near Damascus,
and is so highly sensitive that is is acted apoa by the least
change of the atmosphere. Persons familiar with natural
science know that it cannot rain until the air is filled with
aqueous vapor, which must condense to cause rain to fall;
this moisture must t xist in the atmosphere several hours
to advance of the coming storm. No other Barometer
manufactured will foretell with accuracy the approat-li of
.ain. But this NATURAL HOROSCOPE, the work of NA
TURE'S OWN HAND, fills up the veld which man could
not acminplish, and points Its unerring finger to all changes
of the we ither, and has never been known to fail. ,
It is valuable to the Fa. niei, the Physician, the .Clergy
man, the Navigator, the Traveler, the Merchant, and
everybody.
It Is very simple to understand, and never requires any
rep tiring. They am cheap, durable and reliable.
For sale only by agents, and at ICnoche's Music store,
