The trouble of most men is in the op posite direction. —The case of the Receiver of the First National Bank of this place vs. Chas. Duffy, was finished before the U. S. Circuit Court, sitting in Pitts burgh, last Wednesday, when thejnry found for the defendant. —When Guiteau was asked if he •was insane, he replied : 'I am not an ■expert ; let these experts and the jury decide that.' How many insane men ■wonld have answered thus ? Does one .often meet a lunatic who does not deny at every point, and in every case, any charge affecting his sanity ? —We are requested to state that the I Miss A. A. Eshenbaugh, mentioned in ; the CITIZEN, of last week, as suing a : certain Hiram Crawford for a breach of promise, is not Miss A. D. Eshenbaugh, of Centre township, this county. —Late experience proves that the greater portion of the profits of trunk lines of railways is derived from local traffic in passengers and freights. It l is not the through traffic which pays, because on that there is competition. The advertisements of Harper's Magazine, Weeklv and Bazar for 1882, can be seen in another place in this paper. We can club either or all these publications and also Harper's Young People, with the CITIZEN at reduced rates. —During a few days hunt along the Slipperyrock, between Hilliard's Mills and North Hope, last week, Hans. Derby and Cha9. Book, of Bardford, bagged 130 pheasants and other game, weighing in all some four hundred pounds. —Gutting a bank is dangerous busi ness out west. The president and cashier of a bank in Sumner county, Kansas, which closed its doors a few days ago, were taken in charge by a mob of depositors and invited to settle or die. They settled. —Keifer, of Ohio, received therepub lican cacus nomination for speaker of the national House of Representatives, last Saturday. He was nominated in the 16th ballot, receiving 93 of the 144 ballots cast. McPherson, of this State, was nominated for clerk. —The members of the country debat ing society that decided last winter that capital punishment should be abolished, must feel greatly discouraged when they reflect that nearly one hun dred hangings have taken place in this country since their decision. —Postmaster-General James in his annual report strongly urges the es tablishment of Government savings banks. The system has proved an ad mirable success in England, and per haps its best feature, aside from abso lute security against failure or loss, is its incitement to the laying by of small amounts by a vast number of people all over the land. —The estimate of the Commissioner of Pensions 'bat an appropriation of $235,000,000, will be required during the next two years to meet the de mands on the national treasurv arising under the pension arrears act of 187 9, has created a profound impression through out the country. Congress, evidently, did not know what it was doing when it leagalized this plunder of the treas ury. —Examination of the Tax-Office books in Philadelphia shows that in two Wards alone upwards of half a million dollars were stolen from the city and the State in a single year. So Philadelphia is enjoying a sensation, which is not. made less sensational or more pleasant by the announcement that this is but the beginning of what is expected from the investigation now in progress. —The Pacific National Bank, of Bos ton, failed because the President loaned a million or more to a State street speculator without any security, and the speculator did not turn over secur ities as he promised. No wonder peo ple are beginning to ask on what sys tem—not to say principles—banks are run, when the president can loan and the cashier make away at pleasure with their funds. —The Supreme Court has recently decided that "a promissory note which bears the genuine signature of the obli gor, but which was, in fact, obtained from him by fraud and under the im pression that he was signing an entire ly different instrument, is a valid obli gation against him, and in the hands of a bona fide purchaser or assignee, for value, before maturity." Moral: Be careful what you sign. —The tenth census shows that Penn sylvania's area is 44,985, and not 46,- 000, as usually given. The new coun ty of Lackawanna has 440 square miles and Luzerne 910. Centre is now the biggest county in the State, with 1,230 square miles; Lycoming follows close with 1,205; Bradford is third, with 1,- 160; Tioga, Somerset, Potter, West moreland, Bedford, Crawford and Mc- Kean each Lave an area of 1,000 or more square miles. —That it may be a misfortune to have money left one is illustrated by the case of Miss A. G'onley, who bad seventy-five shares of stock in the New ark Mechanics' Bank bequeathed her. The assessment made by reason of Baldwin's rascality and the bank's ruin not only calls for the entire value of her shares, but money besides; and un less the directors can be held responsi ble for not doing their duty, what was intended to furnish MissConley a fixed income will prove to her a positive loss. Guiteau looks back with disgust on the period of his life when he was a member of tho % Oneida Community. He admits that he was 'badly crauked* at that time, and denounces the Socie ty as a miserable affair. He ought to have felt at home there, for that offen sive social experiment was carried on by a particularly bad lot ot cranks of both sexes. They had the merit of in dustry, however, and it was probably the necessity of working for his board which made his life among them so irksome to Guiteau. —Our Fish and Game Association received four cans of black bass and german carp from the State Board, last Friday night. Half the bass were put in the creek here, and half the carp in the creek above Reiber's dam. The other half of each will be put in the Slipperyrock. The bass are all females, are each about a foot long and will spawn next spring. Each female bass lays 40,000 eggs every spring, and if they are protected for a few years we will then have some good fish in our creeks. —A large crowd of men at Durand, Minn., seized a noted thief and murder er who had just confessed in Court to the killing of two well-known citizens and officers, quickly threw a rope around his neck, and bung him over the limb of a tree. A coroner's jury held an inquest an hour later, and rendered the verdict, 'Came to his death by falling from the Court House steps and breaking his neck.' There haye been many singular inquest verdicts, but this takes precedence. And the lynching, when the law was ready to mete out justice, was some thing that might have been expected from Arkansas or the mining regions, but hardly from Minnesota.

In the case of banks and other public institutions it is legally enacted that when a holiday comes on Sunday the day previous shall be ob served, and custom is making this ob servance general. Saturday is usually a half holiday, anyhow, with a great many classes, aud it will be much more satisfactory to take that day and be ready for business again on Monday morning than to break in on the begin ning of the week with a holiday. —We ask yoii to read the adver tisement of Darby's Prophylactic Fluid, which appears in our issue of to-day. It Is a wonderful healing rem edy, a most powerful disinfectant, and a positive germ destroyer, and is per fectly safe to use even in the hand# of the most inexperienced. It is highly recommended by eminent physicians and chemists, and endorced by hun dreds of others who have used it and know its valuable prosperities. It costs but a trifle, and will save much suffering, time and money. Darby's Fluid has long been recognized as a household article for universal family use. Prepared by J. H.

This effort to annul the charter has had ihe good effect of causing several members of the Association to withdraw, or in other words to take their money out of it, with the six per cent, interest from a middle date, to which they are legal ly entitled. When money stagnates in the treasury of a Building & Loan As sociation, all non-borrowers should withdraw. It will do ihem no good to stay in, and by staying in they do their neighbors a positive injury; in fact, when a Building & Loan Asso ciation gets into the shape that ours was a short time ago, it ceases to be a mutual benefit society and does not ful- fill the spirit of any Building k Loan law ever passed by our State legisla ture. We hope to see all the non-bor rowers withdraw as fast as the money accumulates to pay them off. Bonanza for .Slioe-maker*.

Never during qur expeilenoe a* buyers aud manufacturers of clothing have wo seen the market in HO depressed a condition at it haw bepp thju spasca. The stubboinr.oss with which Summer has lingered in the lap of Winter had a very depressing effect upon price*. When our buyer reached New York lie did not intend to buy one dollar's worth of Clothing, but the manufactuiers accosted him and offered him such inducements which were irresistable. They had the goods, they wanted th« money, and therefore named such low prices as even to you will appear ridiculous. The result was that onr buyer took the advantage of the flat market and secured Men's, J'oys' and Children'* Overcoats at 40 per cent, less than they cost to manufacture. Men's, Boys' and Children's Suits he bought at about one-half the prices these same manufacturers asked for same goods four weeks ago. Hats and Furnishing Goods in proportion. Being bought cheap, wo intend to sell them cheap, giving the people of Pittsburgh and vicinity the full benefit of this unprecedented purchase. Never have we at any one tince had a» large mid desirable stock of teasonable goods in onr store as at the present time, and it seems a great pity to cut prices so, but wo mean slash and slash it shall be. This great loss—and loss it is—falls upon the mannfac turcrs. ai:d were it not for onr great enterprise and ability to pay spot cash for those tremendous lots of goods the people of Pittsburgh and vicinity would not have this unheard-of opportunity of securing audi excellent Clothing for such insignificant prices. Merchants in the country who are not "filled up" with Winter Goods will do well to come in and assort their stocks at our Ketail Prices.
