Theic are fourteen regularly committed
tramps in jail. During da 8 that are past
they frequently jeered men, women nd
children from a window at the eait cud of
the corrider th"t traverses the jail from east
to west, until their indolence became a sub
ject fur general remaik. Wishing to keep
ia the grace of the Sheriff', they cast their
insults rten he was absent; but with all
that precaution, he was informed of their
itii.ok.-oce, and concluded to restrict tbeif
view of the street by requiring them, lest
Friday, to continenicut in the noriheut
room of the jail. The conlinsment consist
ed only in removing them from a place from
which they couid i&use iLe people who pass
by, to the secluded room just mentioned ; I
but such mild reproof of course could have
no otiier influence upon such good-for-nothing
people than to stir their reseut
lueut, which was speedily turned upon
those connected with tr Sheriff's bouseboM.
It was bake-day; the jail ctcs stands in
the jail-yard, in full view of the ouly win
dow in the room that the fourteen tramps
were confined in. The tramps turned tLeir
attention, and resentment in full on the ,
women who were attending the oven, and
their remarks were so obscene that the wo
men were prevented from discharging the
duty of the basing. Of course the Sheriff!
was informed of the new direction in which
the insoleuce and resentment of hia tramp
risoner were trned. Ho remonstrated
with the in, and relieved the women from a
f urther attendance upon the oven, and sub
stituted a couple of men prisoners from
this county. Mo sooner bad the men begun
to visit the oven, than the tramps set up a
derUive thout, took out the window sash,
and pelted them with stove coal, aud threw
water out at them. The appeals of the
hheriS" to them to Keep quiet, now seemed
ouly to make them worse. lie refused to
give llieiu supper, unless they would be
ba.'e. Instead of subsiding to decent con
duct, they threatened to tear down the Jail,
burn it down, and gradually but steadily
worked themselves to a shocking state of
depiaved excitement, and by niglifall, the
I in in that neighborhood was startling.
When on their Ust visit to the yard, they
tarried up a number of Sticks of wood, se
creted in their clothing, which they now
used to pouud on the floor, the wall, the
door, aud the window-grating. Their tin
dishes were brought into play, and suh a
noise as they kept np was never beard be
fore in that Leighborhood, unless it was long
go, in the days of an Indian wsr dance,
aud then the poise could only have been
heard by the dusky sons of the forest.
Substantial as the old jail is, the work of
the Irishmen in the northeast comer room
kept it in a tremor, which the surrounding
ground seemed to partake of. They earsed,
shouted fire, and shrieked at the top of
their voices until it seemed as if Satan
himself was holding high carnival there.
Of course such a tieudish performance must
needs wort collect a crowd of people, and
citizens, upon whose mind the belief was
impressed that the tramps would break cut
sometime during the night, became alarmed.
All kinds of suggestions were made as to
what should be done.
The aporatus of cuffs and rings was
too limited for the chaining of such a
g:ig. The crowd could not be divided, as
the cells were all occupied. There was no
authority to take them from the jail. Some
eople wanted to take them out and hang
them, and rid society of their presence,
and the cost of keeping them. Some want
ed to get np on the jail-yard wall and dis
charge a few loads of buckshot among them
Ihrongh the window. Some wanted to take
them out an 1 tie them up and whip them as
they do ia Delaware. Some wanted to get
rlubs and go in among them and club them
to submit to decent conduct, but there
was no Legislate authority for the admia-
i .'ration cf such punishment, and it was not
admiuistered. The community did not as
sert its natural rights. The Sherul was
tool and humane in his conduct, and organ
ized an armed guard of twenty men, and
placed them arouud the j til, and ia the eor
riders, with orders that if the outlaws
should get out of thsir room they should
not be allowed to escape. Some time dur
ing the night the room door was vigorously
assailed. The guard at the post told the
tramps to get away from the inside of it, as
he intended to 8 re through. He fired, and
the bullet sped through the door, through
the window, acoss the jail-yard, through
the upstairs hall cf the house occupied by
James Deen, ex-clerk to the Commission
ers, and thence through the hall and out of
the window at the north end of the hall,
making a clean little hole in the first win
dow, and breaking two lights in the latter
window. The shot through the door some
what intimidate! the outlaws, and gradually
their riotous demonstrations subsided.
During the night they did their best to
cnt the heavy plank partition of the room.
Tbey heated a stove poker, and tried to burn
the plank in two ; but they failed in their
object. On one or two occasions the flame
that blazed np when the poker eame in con
tack with the plank led numbers to believe
that they bad fired the woodwork of the
room. But that they would not do, for
they wonld have been burned up in their
own wicked work.
At 3 o'clock on Saturday morning all waa
tiniet; but the guard kept its post in and
around the jail till daylight. It was good
for the tramps and the community that the
outlaws did not get out of jail, for the peo
ple would not have tolerated tne aggressive
work of the tramp. Almost every gun and
pistol in towa was carefully loaded that
night, and throughout Saturday it was no
uncommon sound to bear weapons dint-barged,
in back yards.

The disposition to take to farming, whkb
manifested itself ao strongly last year, con
till tics to excite general attention. A recent
number of The farm and Firtttdt, remark
ed " that there seems to be a rush, this year,
to the farms. Time waa when the young
men in the country packed up and made for
the city, having aa their object the con
struction of a colossal fortune in a few
years. Now, however, things are reversing,
and the tide begins to ebb. In the State of
Miunesota the quantity of land sold this
year is thirty-two and a half times aa great
aa the salea of last year. Government and
railroad lands are being eagerly taken up,
and westward tbe star of empire takes its
way. This ia aa it should be. The cities,
with a few exceptions, are overcrowded
there are thousands upon thousands of men
out of employment in New York, and the
same may be said of all large cities. And
it not the laborers who are the chief suffer
ers. The book keepers, the salesmen, the
young lawyers au 1 doctors, the followers ol
tbe thousand and one light ' professions
are willing and glad to take employment at
any price and on any terms. But the coun
try is never crowded. The broad acres
want occupants, and to them must the greit
army of unemployed men turn their facia
There is work, and plenty or it In tha West,
and also on the old and abandoned farms in
the older States, if those who want work
will only go to it." But, great as was tbe
inquiry for farms last year, it will be sur
prising if the coming spring will not see a
greater rush than ever.

or address Jas. C. Suatixosroao,
niar20-tr Near MtAlisterville, Fa.
Cobb or DirBTMBia. We republish the
following, from the Gtpsl Jdeocatt, be
cause the experiment may be safely tried,
and it ia worth trying. Diphtheria is be
coming a fearful scourge, and the writer of
what la here said aaw the working of this
cure in the hands of an English physician;
at a time when the disease waa prevalent in
an English town. Speaking of the physi
cian'a application, the Writer says
All he took with him was powder of
sulphur and a quill, and with these he Cured
every case without exception. He rut a
teaspoon bf the flour of brlmstdne' into a
wineglass of water, and stirred it with his
finger instead of a spoon, aa the sulphur
does not readily amalgamate with water
When the sulphur was well mixed he gave
it as a gargle, aud in ICn minutes the pa
tient waa out of danger. Brimstone kills
every species of fungus in man, beast or
plant in a few minutes. Instead of spitting
out the gargle, he recommctds the shallow
ing of iU In extreme cases, in which be
had been called just in the nick of time,
when the fungus was too nearly closed to
allow the gargle, he blew the sulphur
through a quill into the throat, and, after
the fungus had shrank to allow of it, then
the gargliug. He never lost a patient from
diphtheria. If a patient cannot gargle, take
a live coal, put it in a shovel and sprinkle a
spoonful or two of Hour ot brimstone at a
time upon it j let the sufferer inhale it, hold
ing the bead over it, and the fungus will
die. If plentifully used, the whole room
may be filled almost to suffocation, aud the
patient can walk about in it, iuhaling the
fumes, with doors and windows shut. The
plan of fumigating a room with sulphur has
often cured most violent attacks of cold in
the bead and chest."
Ir thou dost but pass before me,
And I feel but the touch of thy dress,
My heart leaps, and follows1 in rapt urn
The track of thy loveliness.
'Then thou turuest about and bendest
Those great eyes 67 thine on me,
And my heart is so stricken with panic
It scarcely can follow thee."
