WHEN we tend the daily accounts of crime in a
Sarge city, and examine the statistics of' yearly
commitments to our prisons, in may strike some
that the expense of the trials and punishment of
these offenders must be a. heavy burden to the city.
But few, however,have any really adequate idea
of the tax upon the community transgressors of the
law are. In the city of London, for instance, it has
been ascertained that every prisoner confined in
Newgatc costs the city 3500 per annum. Were the
same amount of money judiciously expended in the
prevention of crime, the aaditional expense to citi
zens from the deprapationa of ofl'enders might be
avoided.

Item the Baltimore American of Monday :
On Saturday a. Mrs. Anna. Maria. Fultz, of

Fountain Inn of this city, by Constable Wright,
and arraigned before J ustice McKinley on a war
rant charging her with enticing and niding in the
escape of a. colored man, named Amos Hinson,
from the service of Mr . Wm. W. Whitman, of
Washington county, Md. It was stated that the
accused met Hinson, after his leaving the house of
Mr. W., and purchased tickets for herself and him
at the office of the Franklin Railroad Company in
Hagerstown , and accompanied him to Columbia
and then to Philadelphia. Mr. Whitman proceeded
to the latter city subsequently and recovered Hin
son, whom he brought on to this city and disposed
of. Mrs. Fultz was committed to jail by the J us;
tice to await the action of the authorities of Week—

and is the mother of four children . She represents
herself as the sister-in-law of Mr. Whitman, and

Mos: Annecmus THEPI.—On Monday evening,
between 5 and 6 o’clock, some daring rascal en‘

clothing, sheets, m., from a wash tub. The family
was at supper at the time, and there is little doubt
but what the thief deliberately wrung out the
clothes and made them up in abundle. Mr. Dun
can met'him in the passage between his house and
that of Mr. Knox, and asked him what he was
doing there, when the fellow replied “ nothing,”
and left. It was too dark to recognize him, but
Mr, Duncan thinks it was a white man. ,
This is one of the boldest thefts we have re

petty thieves congregate in large towns, anithey
are not partieular what they steal, from a. grind

Luna 1): mm Wnsr.-—The great majority of
people who are living comfortably on farms in Penn
sylvania, and those who are doing well in the town 3
and cities, have a. very inadequate idea of living in
the West. The change of habits and associations,
though great, are, perhaps, the least important of
any which meet the settler in those regions. The
most important changes are those of climate, the
mode of living. and the general features of the
country. We Speak of the now,u.nd,m! yemhinly
settled portions of the West, those regions where
the land is not so well cultivated and as d 0!" now,
and the population as numerous, as in the older
States.
There is an idea, says the Philadelphia. Ledger,
that mm, 1,11,01- is required to cultivate prairie land,
and to persons from“ wooded country, whore much
labor is at first required to clear the land, the
prairies of the West have :1 very great charm, not
only from their novelty, but from the fact that
there are no trees to cut down, no stones to pick,
and no stumps to encounter. These seeming ad
vantages in speedy cultivation, however, very
soon turn out to be real and most serious disad—
vantages, for everything else, save the land, that
is necessary to complete a. farm and render it; a
place of comfortable abode, is wanting, and only
to he obtained, elsewhere, by hard labor and very
considerable expense.
There are" no running springs, always filled with
whelesome water,- but should there be water on
the place, or within miles of it, unless it-horders on
some of the larger streams and rivers, it is found
to be stagnant, or running slowly in a deep gulch,
murky and unfit to drink. The want of timber is
one of the greatest privalions which can meet the
former, being constantly needed for fuel, as well
as for fencing, building and other purposes. No
advantages of speedy cultivation can compensate
for the absence of fire-wood alone.
The soil generally is exceedingly fertile, and en—
pable, in favorable seasons, of producing large
crops; but there are many drawbacks which the
settlers meet. with that are not known or consid
ered, until proved by experience.. Very great ir
regularity aud uncertainty prevail as to the growth
and harvesting of the crops. Some seasons are
too wet, and other seasons are too dry, and it. is
peculiar in the West that those seasons come in
the greatest extremes. Then, again, hail storms
and tornadoes frequently sweep over the prairies
carrying destruction in their path. Experience
has shown that, on an average, a full crop is not,
from some cause or other, harvested more than
about once in every three years. During the rea
sons of short crops very little more isrruised than
sufiices for the wants of the farmer and his house'-
hold, and in pleuteous seasons the yield is gener.
ally so abundant in the country, that the price ob
tained is no remuneration for the lahor.
To make a. living in the West requires hard
labor, and the enduring of many privatlons which
are incident too. new and thinly-settled coun try.—
The necessaries, not to speak of the comforts, of
life are diflicult to obtain ; in many cases the dis
tance of hauling with ex teams consumes much of
the time, and forms a very great and wholly un
productive portion of the labor. Thousands of
people have discovered that the same unremitting
toil which has barely made them a living in the
West, would have been far more profitable, and
would, in all probability, have secured them a. com
petency in the older States. There are large
tracts of excellent farming land in Pennsylvania.
which can be bought as cheapas land in the West,
and where the opportunities of making a comforta
ble living, and of realizing a. competency, are
much better and far more certain. With a
healthy climate, and the advantages of plenty of
timber, good water, regular season: and harvests,
convenient mills, stores and schools, and a ready,
near and cash market for produce, it is folly to
leave Pennsylvania to seek homes in the West.
Coum‘ or QUARTER Sassxous~Tueszlay.—-Tha
Court. was principally employed in ventilating the
colored population tho-day ; all the cases, with one
exception, were negroes—proseoutors, defendants
and witnesses. This drew into the‘ contracted and
heated court room a glow] of darkness, which
spread an aroma. through it highly refreshing.
First case on record was

who swore that Jake invaded her premises in the
dead hour of night, and stole divers things there

fearing a demonstration was about, to be made on
his plate and jewelry, had the interloper arrested.

011 m AND Tanan.——ln the afternoon a. Court
of Oyer and Terminer commenced for the purpose
of trying Anthony Nininger, indicted for rape, on
the oath of Elizabeth‘Souders. The indictment
contained two counts—one for rape and one for
assault and battely.
This case, from its peculiar nature, drew a. large
crowd of people to the Court House, who listened
to all the details with intense interest. District
Attorney Herr, assisted by E'ckles, appeared for the
Commonwealth, and Mn Rum for the defence.
The woman gave her evidence through an inter
preter, (being unable to speak English) and made
out a very fair ease. The shrewdest cross-exami
nations that legal acumen and long e;perience
could dictate failed to entrap her, and so straight
forward were her answers and statements that the
jury must have convicted the defendant, if they
could have put any faith in her statements.
The character of Mr. Nininger for respectability
—-hie advanced age—having passed his three score
and ten—were so very incontrovertible arguments
in his favor, and the jury, after less than half an
hour’s deliberation, returned a virdict of not guilty.

THE CANVASS-BMJK Dump—As “ Mr Local” ap
pears fond of ducks, if not of ducbshooting, he is
welcome to make use of the attached scrap from a.
description of the glorious Canvass-Bn.ck, by Wm
H. Herbert—“ Frank Forester” The essay upon
the cooking of the bird aforesaid is too good and
too true to belost, and for the benefit of the rising
generation should be preserved complete. A little
salt, a. little celery and a good deal of duck makes
a superb meal~‘nitbout other condiments. But to
our bird
Of a. truth this is the royalty of ducks. No other
watsr-fowl to him is equal, or second, or in any
wise comparable; and the unhappy man who pic
tures to himself in the vain imaginings of his own
heart, that he is a. gourmet. ; that he is blessed with
a refined, delicate, discriminating palate; that he
is capable of criticism, nay, of neuminnted judg
ment, upon edibles, not- ha-ving tasted yet a. Gun
powder River Canvass-Bach, making from the spit,
with no condiment, save a modicum of salt and a
stick of his bird’s kindred plant, the celery, may
go back to his rudiments; for when he shall once
have beenihlessml with fruition of that rare mouth
ful,he will be compelled, how reluctant: soevcr,to ad
mit that: all his boasted knowledge is but the know
ledge of his own woful ignorance.
And while we are speaking of our king of water
fowl, ne seen and felt upon the board, not yet in
his grander and nobler capacity and character, as
game in the free air, or on the liberal waters. let
us observe that the cook who sends this glorious
fowl rerLl-aw up to the table, to be cut up butehefly
and bedoviled in a, chafing-dish,with wine and
jelly, and I know 'not What, is worthy ofa rope and
the nearest lamp post—death without. benefit of
clergy. The man who would so condescend to eat
him—hisjuiey, melting, natural richness disguised
by cloying artifiniol sweetness, deserves inconti—
nently to be elected a. New Yor'k alderman.
No ! let the kitchen be the kitchen, and its work
be done within its own confines. Let the dnek,
roasted to a turn, redolent of a rapid fire, and
brownly, nay, but. almost blackly crisp without, be
served up on its lordly dish,_without one gout of
sauce or gravy to dim the splendor of the abeeny
porcelain.- A vase of celery may accompany him,
and, if you will, a solver of halved lemons, but no
more. Let him be placed before the right man of
the company, one competent to
V “Carve him as a. dish for gods,
Nut haw him as a. carcass for the hounds.“
Then,it‘he be indeed the very man, it is a. pleasure in
itselfto observe him. Mark now duintily between
his thumb and forefinger only he poises the elabo
rate and burnished steel; how dcxterously and with
out etl‘ort he slides it through the rich scarlet. mus
cle, glowing like a ripe pomegranate when its skin
is severed, through cartilage and joint owning——
“And as he draws his trenchant steel away,
Mark how the blood of Cmsnr follows it,”
till the broad dish, of late so bright and stainless,
is filled. even to o’erflowing with the rare, crimson
gravy, and the whole atmosphere of the dining
room is perfumed with the noble farmer. .
Your Canvass-Back of the Chesapeake Bay, but
more especially of tho Gunpowder river, is the no
bleman of that ancient dominion; whe , all
other Canvass-Backs, even of the Jamesjgae Po
tomac, and the Patqpsco, shall be on once distin
guished as mere PJ'l‘L‘cnueß and merchant princes;
as those from the Hudson, the Sound, or the great
South Bay, ran]; as the mere snobs and vulgariuns
—-t-he very outcasts of Duckdom. 2’ _
The wonderful difference which exists between
these fowl, when shot on the waters of the Chesa
peake and elsewhere, arises solely from the (filler
once of their food. The Canvass-Back ranges
across many degrees of this continent, from the
Falls of St. Peters’ on the upper Mississippi, so far
north as the Long Island Sound, and the great 1:).-
goons between its southern side and the outer
beaches, on which Iharc frequently killed it. But
nowhere is it a. superior duck, except on the waters
and tributaries of the Chesapeake, where its fa~
vorito food, the wild celery, us it is incorrectly
called, Zoslcm l'aliencria. or Valisncria Americana,
grows in the greatest abundance, and imports to it
that peculiar richness and delicacy which it be
stows on none of its congene-rs.
The Red—Head closely resembles the Canvass-
Beck, and is often palmed off on the _nnwury as
that bird, yet to an experienced eye the distinction
is broadly apparent. In the first place the Can~
vnss-Back is very considerably the larger bird,
measuring two feet in length by three feet from
wing towing, and weighing, when in condition,
full three pounds. The upper parts of the Can--
was-Bucks are much lighter, and the colors gene—
rally clearer and brighter than in the lied-Head,
which I consider identical with the European Po
chard. It is in the Lheads oi‘ the two birds, how
ever, that. the dill‘croucc will be most readily per
ceived, the bill of the Canvass-Back being above
three inches along, purely black, and very high at
the base, whereas that of the Red-Head is bluish,
except at the tip, where it is black, and rarely ex
ceeds two undo quarter-inches, besides being much
flatter where it joins the head. Perhaps the best
distinction, however, is in the eye, for that marl:
is positive. whereas all the others are merely com
parative; the iridea, or circles around the pupil,
being in the Canvass-Back deep, fiery red,- whereas
in the other bird they are of a lurid reddish-yel
low or chesnut.
The Canvass-Back drake, in full plumage, is a
magnifioently handsome fowl, and his speed and
power of sustained flight, as well as extraordinary
agility and persistence in diving, are in all respects
commensurate with his beauty.
The crown of his head, the space between the
bill and the eye, and the throat, are dusky,- the
sides of the head, neck all round and the great 1‘
'part of its length, rich, ruddy chesnut; the lower
neck, breast, andlbaek, Lieep, sooty black, the rest
of the back white, closely undnlsted with narrow
black lines; the wing-ooverts gray, speckled with
black ; primaries and secondaries light slate color;
rump tail—eoverts and tail blackish; lower breast
and abdomen, white; flanks white, finely undulated
with gray; under tail-cavern, grayish~black.
The female is inferior in size to the male, and
generally of a dingy, grayish-brown, except the
abdomen, which is white, pencillecl with blackish
lines. '
This bird is unknown except on this continent,
never being found in Europe; and of its habits,
except during the winter months, which it. spends
in our sen-bays and estuaries, little or nothing has
been ascertained, so that of allits most interesting
peculiarities in nidification, incubation, and the
rearing of its young, we are almost, wholly igno
rant.
That it. breeds in the extreme north we are, of
course, assured, and that it. is not averse to a more
than moderate degree of cold, since it stays with
us even after the ice has made, when it can feed
only through air-holes, and is never found far
south of the capes of the Chesapeake. It does
not, moreover, become very abundant even on those
its favorite waters, until the cold weather has
fairly set in, about the middle of November, and
a. month later,” is considered to be in its prime.
It is, however, very- remarkahle, that I cannot‘diS
cover that the Canvass-Back is ever seen or known
to visit the great Upper Lakes, where the Red;
Head is also rate, though Widgeon and Scaup
abound. '
One of their habits is so curious th-it it. merits
peculiar attention, though it in shared by these
birds with several other varieties, the Seaups, or
Blackofleads, and the Red-Heads especially, and
sometimes, though rarely, by the.Widgeon, or
Bald-Paces,- this habit is a strange hallucination
or curiosity which induces them to swim directly
in from their feeding-grounds, under the very mul~
zla of the concealed gunner’s weapon, on the oc
currence of any rare or unusual sight,‘such as an
animal at, play on the beach, or the waving of a
red handkerchief by day, and a white by night.—
Advantage is taken of this singular propensity to
lure them to their doom; and I an; assured by a
good sportsman that he has'known the same flock
toled, as it is called, into easy gumshot, and deci
mated'each time, thrice successively Within half an
hour.
It is said that the tendency to overshoot large,
solid flocks is so great that the oldest and best
shots recommend that the nearest duck he brought
into full relief above the sight, when your shot will
rake the mass. To prevent the toling dogs from
berkin g, other dogs, crossed between the Newfound
land and water spaniel, are used, which display
even more eagaoity than the Men, crouching when
the duck: come in, and springing up eagerly at the
discharge, in order to mark its effect. During a
flight of fowl, these retrievera are said ine'essantly
to watch the quarter of the heavens whence the
fowl are flying, and to indicate then- approach by
reatlesaueu of manner‘long before the human eye
can detect them.
This toting is not, however, regarded by good
and great duck—shots as a. very legitimate or sports
mnnlike method, and though the aagaeity of the
dogs, and the gradual approach of the ducks in a.
way so curious must give an Interest and excite
ment to the business, it must he confessed that bl:-
zing away into solid, stationary knees of thou
sands cannot be compared to shooting on .the wing.
The true and gnoscic mode 01' shooting, however,
is. from the points or islands, over which the ducks
I and geese fly in going up or down the hey, accord.
I ing as the wind may be, and on which blinds'or
1 screens are constructed, coneealing a seat on which
a the sportsman quietly and comfortably awaits the
advent of the fowl, the teams of which may be
seen at a long distance, so that their approach: and
the doubt to whose stand they will give the shot,
renders the Sport most exciting.
The most celetmted of these stations is Carrol’a
Blind, long rented by a club of sporting gentle
metuaml famous for the astonishing sport it was
wont to furnish year after year. The Narrows,
“190, between Spesntia Island, on' the western
i Show, Taylor’s Island, at the mouth of the Bum
lay. and Abbey Island, at the mouth of the Bush
j Ewe-" 1 Legoe’s Point, on the last named stream,
. and Robbins’ and Rieketts’ Points, near the Gun-
Powder, are all favorite and famous stations.
The sport is greatly enhanced by the difliculty
of the thootin‘g; and in is said that even the best
upland shots, or fowl shots, accustomed only to
Moo/I'M. foil of success at first in this flight-shoot
! i 055" from the difficulty of calculating the distance
of the teams had the rapidity of their motion.

STAXCE, TO EFFED'J.‘ A CURE. when timely used.
Never did we know an instance of dissatisfaction by any
one who used it. On the contrary, all are delighted with
its operations, and speak in terms of commendation of
its magical effects and medical virtues. We speak in
this matter “WHAT WE DO KNOW,” after ten years’
experience, AND PLEDGE OUR REPUTATION FOB.
THE FULFILLMENT OF “WHAT WE HER}: DE
CLARE. In almost every instance where the infant is
sufiering from pain and exhaustion. relief will be found
in fifteen or twenty-minutes after the syrup is adminis
tered.
This valuable preparation is the prescription of one of
the most EXPERIENCED and SKILLFUL NURSES in
New England, and has been used with NEVER FAIL
ING SUCCESS in
THOUSANDS OF CASES.
It not only relieves the chihl from pain, but invigo
rates the stomach and bowels, corrects acidity, and
gives tone Ami energy to the whole system. It will al
most instantly relieve
GRIPING IN THE BOWELS. AND WIND COLIO,
and overcome convulsions, which, if not speedily reme
died, end in death. We believe it the BEST and SUREST
REMEDY IN THE WORLD, in all cases of DYSEN~
TERY and DI ARRHCEA IN CHILDREN, whether it
arises from teething, or from any other cause. We would
say to every mother who has a. child sufl‘ering from any
of the foregoing complaints—Do NOT LET YOUR PRE
JUDIOES, NOR THE PREJUDIGES or OTHERS, stand
between you and your suffering child, and the relief that

use of this medicine, if timely used. Full directions for
