" im rgl*r Oet Away With •1000,000. \tlanta, July 3.—A Birmingham spe ,l to the Journal says that at an early ' ’ t ' ir yesterday morning burglars entered ’ h ’ (l o ffi C e of the Armour Cold Storage n d p a cking Company, in that city, and pipping up behind C. F. Avery, the cash * w l, o had been detained at his books, him to unconsciousness, took the j. eV from hie pockets, and ransacked drawers, taking accounts and valua- said to amount to SIOO,OOO, and ‘ t the books and papers on the floor set them on fire. The safe of H. P. Hodge & Cos., grocers, t I'a Fayette, Ala., was blown oj>en Monday night. The work was evidently that of experts. They succeeded in get ting s7”> m cash, and also earned off a lot of cutlery. This is the first safe rob |)( rV that has occurred in East Alabama for several years. vj p s M. Rhea has moved to his new I on market near the court house and m[ )o Hes to handle fresh meats to the liAtistaction of everybody. Everything ~|e an and tidy at his market and l ht >**ll* fine meats. jVpril3-3m Tln‘ Troy Times reports this incident: \ young man, who until recently lived at fhe house of his lather, married a few ww> ks ago and went to live in other apart meats. Soon after, at the end of his day’s work, lie left the office, bought an even ly paper, and climbed the hill to liis father’s house. Entering the familiar .iipeincts, he went to the wash room, made his toilet and presented himself at the table. The family who had been watching him curiously, eyed him with amusement, and at last his mother softly inquired: “Robert, have you already pro <.urt‘(i a divorce?” A flush suffused the young man’s face, which rapidly changed lo crimson. Leaving the table amid a ro;ir of laughter, he hurried out and walked rapidly to his own abode, where liis young wife was impatiently and anx iously awaiting him. He had forgotten that he was married. But his wife will probably help him to remember hence forth. Dr. Wilkie, of Oshkosh, Wis., who owns a valuable collection of books on Ma sonry, has disposed of one of the rarest volumes to T. H. Emmons, of Boston, secretary of the grand lodge of Massa chusetts, for $7(5. The book is bound in hog skin with iron clasps, and contains the original manuscript of the meeting of the first Royal Arch chapter ever ionned in London. The book contains the records of the chapter from 1785, when it was started, until 1795, when the sessions were prohibited by an act of the British parliament, and on the last leaf is written the resolution that the chapter he dissolved for this reason. The book was purchased at an auction sale in Lon don for about sls. Physicians prescribe Dr. J. H. McLean’s !

Doctor Walter K. Hammond says: | “Alter a loDg experience I haue come to ! the conclusion that two-thirds of all coughs, pneumonia and const;ption, might he avoided if Acker’s English Cough i Remedy were only carefully used in j time.'' This wonderful Remedy is sold under a positive guarantee by J R. Wikle&Co. eow j John Wanainaker is the first citizen of this country who has rounded out a full million dollars of insurance on his life, nnd the next highest life insurance is John R. Stetson, the great manufacturer, who has $750,000 of life insurance. These ore representative men in the broadest mid best sense, and both are the sole ar chitects of their business success and tor' tones. The fact that men who know what it is to earn money, and who strug gled against poverty in early life, turn to life insurance when the possessors of large wealth, is the highest possible trib ute to the value of life insurance.

All the butchers in that city are in the combina tion and it is now cash or no beef. Instead of pass books heretofore used Die customer purchases a coupon book, for which he pays cash in advance. These books are worth $3.20, $6 and 12.40, the coupons representing five, ten, twenty-five and fifty cents. Cash in advance has to be paid for these books.

His wife was a daughterof Nelson’s gardener, Cribb, and he himself as a boy was em ployed about the gardens of Sir William and Lady Hamilton, and in running on messages and fetching parcels from the stage wagon. He well recollects seeing Nelson fishing in the river Wandle, near the Abbey Mill, and sauntering with Sir William and his wife about the pretty grounds, which were intersected by a canal, which Nelson called “the Nile,” and wlijph at that time extended on both sides of the high road. Hudson witness ed the final departure of Lord Nelson from the house on Sept. 13, 1805, just a month before his death at Trafalgar; and on that occasion shut the door of the post-chaise in which he left, receiving from him a cordial grip of the hand, with a word of council: “Bea good boy until I come back again.” “But he never came back,” -says old Hudson, “and I don’t think he ever will.” Hq still points out, at the bottom of his little garden, the rivulet which used to feed “the Nile,” though it now flows in a diminished stream, and contains not a single min now. Hudson says the cottage in which he lives, and its neighbor also, form a pair built by order of Lord Nelson for his coachman and his gardener, so thorough ly had a community of goods been estab lished between him and his host and hostess; and he points with pride to the fact Hint the mulberry tree on his grass plot was planted there by the order of Lord Nelson himself. A singular condition of affairs regard ing the custody of a child was brought to light in the supreme court of Massachu setts recently by the hearing by Judge Al len of a petition for a writ of habeas corpus- The petitioner was Daniel Lucy, a resb dent of Lynn, who sought to regain pos session of his daughter, Nellie Lucy, aged three years. The little girl had been in the custody of Michael Welch, who re sides at 73 Harvard street, since the death of her mother, some time during the latter part of last December. Welch was in court this morning, together with the child, to show cause why the writ should not be granted. He had no coun sel, and amazed the court by the state ment that, although no relative of the child, he proposed to keep it in charge until the father liquidated an alleged debt to him of S6O, due for the mainte nance of the little girl since the death of lie** mother. Judge Allen lost no time in granting the writ. This is probably the first time since slavery was abolished in Massachusetts that a human being has held as collateral security in this com monwealth. New York Times: There was a comical scene in the republican convention on Sat urday when some of the delegates, at the moment of adjournment, wanted to know if their railroad passes would be good the next week. The sergeat-at-arms—who seems to be an unusually stupid man even for that place—answered for the chair man that the railroad passes would be honored. The chairman, in gome excite ment, said he meant “tickets.” The ser geant-at-arms roared “tickets.” The galleries laughed, and every delegate who had a railroad pass or its equivalent in his docket accepted both statement with equal satisfaction, and went away ponder ing on the beauties of the interstate com merce law and the implacable hatred of the republican party toward the grasp ing corporation. Iy means of recent improvements made in the manufacture of rifles, as many as 120 barrels can now be rolled in an hour by one machine. They are straightened cold and bored with corresponding speed, and even the rifling is done automatical ly, so that orte man tending six machines can turn out sixty or seventy barrels a day. With the old rifling machine twen ty barrels was about tile limit of a day’s work; but the improved machines attend to everything after being once started, and, when the rifling is completed, ring a bell to call the attention of the workman. The treasury department recently re ceived half of a S2O note from a Brook lyn woman with an affidavit to the effect that the other half had been chewed up by a child. The next day came an affi davit from a New York man, containing half of a S2O note, and stating that the other half had been lost. The two halves bore the same number, and on being laid together the torn edges matched exactly. They were not redeemed. The Rochester (X. Y.) Herald, one of the most rabid Republican papers in all the land, says this: “The Old Roman’s speech to the committee that officially notified him of his nomination was as sound as a dollar. It was the speech of a man of brains and experience who knew what to say and how to say it. The Democratic party is fortunate in its can didate for the Vice-Presidency.” The Muscogee county grand jury re commend, in their recent presentments, that the sessions of the Legislature be restricted to forty days, as contemplated by the constitution, and that candidates for that position be requested to pledge themselves not to vote for a session be yond that time. The honest masses at large would heartily endorse such a man. Curry’s Liver Compound will positively prevent chills, fever and all malarial dis eases, if taken in time.
