The Philadelphia Record publihhel
the following last Wednesday : While

with naturalization papers to be ap
proved by the Court When he was
about to present them to the Clerk
James Gillen, otherwise " Sharkey's
Kid," who had been shadowing the
Celestials for 6ome tiina, stepped up
and interposed an objection, on the
ground that the application was in
opposition to a recent act of Con
gress. Mr. Henszey baid he did not
think the applicant would be "agin
the kid's party," and that it would be
best for Mr. Gillen to withdraw the
objection. Mr. Gillen aaid he was
not to be trilled with ; the whole
thing was unconstitutional, and the
Court would so decide it When the
papers were handed up to the Bench
Judge Allison approved them to the
satisaction of Mr. Leon.
Is the Western country when two,
three, or four men have a difficulty
with each other which results in the
shooting of two or three of the party,
no one pays attention to the trouble,
excepting to attend the funeral, un
less the general publie is interested
in the quarrel that ended so fatally.
But if one man, or two, or three, or
a half dozen men in the Western
country 6teu! cattle or horses or
grain, the public turn out, hunt down ;
the thieves, and in a majority of j
cases when the thieves are caught
they are hanged to a limb of the
nearest tree. The Western people
reason this way : That in the per
sonal qunrrel between a few men, no
one is interested but the men them
selves, and if they chose to settle it
among themselves by shooting each
other, that is their own business ;
but in the case of cattle and grain
stealing, every man that has live
stock or grain is interested, and the
thief, when he steals grain or cattle,
strikes at the interest of society gen
erally, for the honest raising of cat
tle, horses and grain are the interests
upon which all other interests rest
and upon the successful raising of
stock, and upon the successful cul
tivation of grain, and their secure
ownership depend all other interests
of the country. The manufacturing
interests, mining interests, railroad
interests, the interests of the mer
chant, of the lawyer, doctor, preacher,
and teacher are all bound up in the
primal interests of the grain grower,
and the stock raiser.
A vert pretty tune is " Marching
Through Georgia." Girls in the coun
try towns- play the march on the
piano often. General Sherman has
heard it so often that he grows sad
every time it is played in his hearing.
A Washington paper says: General
Sherman wept the other day, after
hearing "Marching Through Geor
gia" played at a banquet His neigh
bor. General Grant, asked him :
44 Wherefore dost thou weep ?" The
jcr'rul answered : "I never was so
all-firti sorry that I marched through
Georgia as I ha7? been in the hist
five years. Georgia be airnei The
people are good enough, but I'm list
ening to that tune for the 3,462,9o7th
time. How would you like that Ulys
ses," he continue'!, "to hear that mel
ody over three million times ? They
have socked it to me from Maine to
Texas, and from Florida to Toronto,"
and here he wept afresh. But Gen
eral Grant quietly petted the little
hero on the shoulder and said : "Sher
ry, it is only one of the penalties of
greatness. I suffer worse than you
do ; I've had 7.000,000 cigars given
to me because people think I like to
smoke, 824 pups, and more horses
than I can count Sherry," continued
the General, "whenever I see a horse,
a cigar, pup, I feel just as badly as
you d, but I never give way to my
feelings. I I sell "em." "Yes," an
swered Sherman, between his sobs,
"you can 6ell cigars, pups, and horses,
but I can't sell that tone for five
cents."

STATE ITEM.
The Newport JV'etcv of last Satur
day, the 18th inst, aays: About one
o'clock on Thursday morning the bur
glar-aiarm connecting Mr. Thomas
Cluck's store with bis residence, in
Millerstown, indicated that some one
unprivileged was tampering with it
or had entered the store with bur
glariotis intent Mr. Cluck at once
arose, and accompanied by Alex. Cath
cart, and afterward reinforced by Ah.
Hopple and others, proceeded to the
store. When they arrived at Martin's
corner a man on the opposite side of
the street where the store is located.
called to them to halt and immediate
ly fired at them with a revolver, re
peating the unwelcome salutation.
Mr. Cluck and party then shot at
their assailant, who was in the mean
time joined by two other men who
just then emerged from the building.
The burglars started on a run across
the river bridge, hotly pursued by
Mr. Cluck and party, one of whom,
George Hoffman, jumped on a freight
train and came to this place, pasaing
the thieves above town. Upon ar
riving here CoL and J. Beck Hartzell
were roused from their slumbers and,
with Hoffman, started in pursuit of
the fugitives, whom they tracked with
out difficulty. The borgliirs boarded
an eastward bound freight train about
three miles below town and Messrs.
J. B. HarUell and Geo. Hoffman took
passage on the train which followed
next Telegrams were Kent to Marys
ville to arrest the thieves, but the ras
cals slipped away from the officers.
Learning that they had gotten on a
south-bound freight train at Marys
ville Hartzell and Hoffman followed
after them by a similar mode of con
veyance. The former jumped from
the cars at a point below West Fair
view, while the litter went on to
Bridgeport, perhaps a mile further,
and then footed the distance b:ick to
Fairview, where they came across four
hard-looking cases who had just ar
rived at the nail works and were
washing themselves. Circumstances
indicating that they were the persons
sought they were taken into custody
by Messrs. Hartzell and Hoffman,
and returned to Millerstown on Mif
lliu accommodation on Thursday
evening. The thieving nomads were
arraigned before Esquire E. P. Tit

trial, in default of $80J baiL The
prisoners were guarded in Martin's
hotel over night and conveyed to
Biooiaueld jail on Friday morning by
Constable U. H. Ward. An exami
nation of their persons revealed the
fact that one of the burglars had
been wounded by the shot fired by
Mr. Cluck from a double-barrelled
gun, both barrels of whieh were
emptied at the marauders. Four
shot from the wounded mans left
arm and one or more from one of
his legs were extracted by Dr. HalL
This fellow, it is stated, acknowl
edged that he received his injuries in
the battle at Millerstowx on 1 burs
day morning. They gave their names
as James Many, of Baltimore ; John
Roach, of Erie ; James Foster, of
Montgomery county, and Merse O'
Connell, of Phcenixville. The thieves
gained entrance to the store by pry
ing ocn the front door. Tbe hre
arins used by them are supposed to
have been taken from there, bnt no
other goods are reported to us as
mi.-6ing.
A yonng fellow named McAlpine

mitted to Lancaster jail to await trial.
Ilia plan was to chloroform Mr. and
Mn. Mellvain, rob tbe boose and then
