Pnrinj; tbe Jattor part of January or firet k*w Jftjsj of February last, Mr. Jerome II Downing, who had beta working for Phia BurcbSeia oa a well on the Joho Gallagher place, started to walk to the nearest station on the West Penn II R. Ou the way one of his arctic-, which was torn down tbe side, came ofT in the snow, and he took a couple of papers from his packet, stuffed them iuto the toe, put tbe eboe oo again ami tuade tbe train At Delan> Stttion, bath Downing and Conductor ran iuto the store of R. & A Krauze and s-ach . bought a pair of new rubbers, I)ow-: nii;g leavini; hia old ones with ihs- bits ">i paper in the t> e of one of th>'tn there Then t! ey got ou the train ! irb inst. the stori of Ac A i Krause wa< eutered by burgrl irs, who j opened the tuonpy drawers aud ticket j • ffice and took wbe.t was iii j ihetu, tonk a few pairs of shoes, a h >x | of silk haiidkercbiefs. and other things and tried to open the safe but I failed. Tbe robbery was discovered early ! next morning, &ud a careful ex-imina ! lion discovered no clue or anything left behind by the burglars excepting an old rflbber SS'-H; lying alons-ide tbe safe, and in tbe too of tbe rubber j >i,oe were two paper.-, one a small | circular and tbe other an ineur:ince ■ assessment notice, No. 1305, of a j Pittsburg Company.

Downing, wbo is a very respectable 1 looking man, and who is a son of Thoe. Downing of Mercer county, had tbe man Le is boardiog with, aud tbe man wbo is on tour with him to prove that he has worked steadily at tbe well in Washington couuty: since the 20kh of February last, and that was 3t the well until after midnight of March 12'.b. Every thing was explained excepting the Hp- 1 pearauce of the shoe at tha' particu lar place aud time ar.d Mr. Downing was discharged Tbe old rubber was probably left; there by the burglars by accident or design—a circumstance tbat has caus ed Sir D >wuicg the humiliation of being arrested sud a sum of money—and is a warning to. everybody to be careful of their old papers. There are probably not a dozen men in this town who have not at some time in their lives fastened a rubber with an old letter or other old papers. An Indignant Protest.

The Fraudulent use of Alum and Lime in Cheap Baking Powders. If consumers prefer to buy an adul terated article of fo.id because it caa b* had at a lower price they undoubt edly have the right to do so, provided tbo aduliertinta are a.H -f a character injurious to health If such articles are not falsely sold as pure and tha customer ii not deceived as to their real character, the transaction is not illegitimate But the great danger ia the traffic ia adulterated food arises from the deception th it is practiced by mtnu facturers usually classiug ruch goods a- pure. This is aim invariably done when tbe adulterant n one that is injurious to health For instance, manufacturers ot alutu and lime b;k iug p iwders not only luii to inform tue public of the real character of tbeir goods, bat carefully conceal the fact that tbjy are mide from these poisonous articles. Most ot these manufacturers also cla;m that their articles are pure and wuolesotne. while some go still further »ud proclaim Ooldly that they are cream of tartar goods, or even the genuine Royal Baking Powder itself. No consumer will buy alum baking powders know ingly, for it w -11 uaderst >od tii it the - / are detrimental to health. 'I he tale ot lime and aiutn baking powders as pore and whoies ile articles is. tbere fu:e. criminal, aud it is satisfactory to notice that several persons engaged in such sale have already been brought to justice in the courts. The official analysts have recently been active in tbo pursuits of these diehon»st articles. The baking pow ders of several States have been care folly aud critically examined. The officials are surprised at the large amount of lime and alum goods found. It is a suggestive fact that no baking powder except the Royal has been found without either lime or alum,and many contain both. Dr. Price's bak ing powder h&3 been found to contain nearly I*2 per cent of lime;Clcveland's 11 per ceut. of impurities; the phos phate powders over 12 |»er cent of lime Tbe chief service of lime is to add weight. It is true that lime, when subjected to beat gives o!f a certain amount of carbonic acid gas, but a quick!imu is left —a caustic of most powerful nature. A small quantity of dry iime upon the tongue, or in the eye, produces paiaful effjets; how ru >ve serious must thesu effects be ou tee del'cate membranes of the stomach, interline and kidneys, mare particularly of infant aad children,and especially when the lime is taken in to the system day after day, and with almost every meal. This is said by physicians to be one of tbe causes ot indigestion, dyspepsia, end those paiaful diseases jf the kidneys now so prevalent. Adulteration with lime is quite as much to 02 dreaded ai with alum which has heretofore received the most emphatic condemnation from f. and alum btkiog p >w d»-r-» Las placed of them in the market. Ttiey are to be found i*i th* stock of aim is' every retail dealer, and are urged upon customers c tiling for baking pow u all occasions. Because ot tbeir weii known detri mental oh trader it is desirable thai prompt mnans be takeu to suppress their intuu aclure. Pure baking powders are one of the chief itids to the cook i i preparing perfect and wholesome food. While those are to be obtained of weil estab lished reputation, like the Royal, of whose purity there has never been a question, it is proper to avoid all others. The Petrolia Picnic. The Petrolia Record of last week giivo some incidents of the late affair at that place that did not come out at the hearing.

We notice an item of news in the Parfeer Phoenix which is rather out of the usual order of human affairs, and ft o state it briefly: A short time siuca a young man was arrested in Parker for violating the liquor law In the meantime he attended revival meetings and was converted, and an nounced his intention to lead an ex emplary life A number of witnesses in the case, also youug men, were converted at the same meetings. The young man who wa3 prosecuted had no money with which to settle the case and the church people raised the amount and everything wajs satis factorily settled This is rather a new way to dispose of liquor cases, but we don't see that any better way can be taken, and they will uo doubt find it more practical than prosecu tions The Ebensburg Herald says! We are informed that a witch has made its appearance at the home of John Rees, Jr., in Cambria township and a little son aged about seveu years is being tortured thereby. Is is believd thb witch is iu the shape of a ca\ aud as a result all the cats in the neighbor hood have been captured and burned The child is offl cted with some kind of fits. There has been considerable excitement created by the supposed witch, aud several "cungers" have taken a hand in hunting down the "evil thing " There is no such thing as a witch aud the sooner yoa are convinced of this fact the better.
