As old bachelor at Ielphos, Ohio, on Saturday night, hearing a burglar on his premises, waited until he came in and ehot him dead. The fellow was a stran rer to nun but he allowed mm to remain there until morning and went to bed him sell for another nap. 1 his is an econom- ical and entirely satisfactory way of dis- posine of burglars, and we hope to see it come into ccneral practice. In such cases we prefer giving the undertaker a job, rather than the detectives and lawvers.

The President has selected the last Thursday in November as Thanksgiving day, in accordance with the custom which has" prevailed heretofore, and the Governors of the several States will doubtless designate the same day. Governor of New York, may desire to have two festival days and stick to the 2. id, his llrst selection. We can not see what he should feel so thankful about, j' just now though, nor in such a hurry to show his gratitude. Work on the Northern Pacific raflFoad is now progressing in west of lied river.

The surveying party recently engaged in locating tljie line of the road from the mouth of Jleart river to the Yellowstone valley lias returned to Fort Kice, and the engineer in charge reports that he has found a very direct line, striking the Yellowstone at the mouth of jGUmdriver creek. He reports linding coal in abundance along the surveyed line from the head of Heart river to the Yellowstone crossing. The valleys are well timbered, well watered and the soil good. This is inore thancan be said of the sec-tftm between the lied and Missouri rivers through which the road runs. ThqmAs Hawkins, the polygamistwas fwnteneed by Cpiefi Justice McKean on Naturday to pay a fine of $400 and be 1m prisoned three years.

There was but lit- tie excitement, and although the audience was large, propeir decorum was maintain ed. "Warrants are out for the arrest Brigham Young and his son on the charge 1 of murder, in ordering the killing Jvichard Yates, who visited the Mormon camp aunug uie reDeinon 1 livu and was executed as a spy.

It is probably well enough to indicate very positively to the Mor mons that they must put an end to thetr Jlolygam6us practices so far, at least, as taking any more wives is concerned, and keep out.of the way of advancing civili ration and morality. It can ndt be crush cd out in a rhoment by legal prosecutions and it would be impolitic to make outcasts of the hundreds and thousands of women who have teen deluded into the belief that their position was an 1 honorable one AVe have no defence to make for them nor of the villainous institution of which they are the victims, but we do not think that either they or society at large would be benefited by thrusting them from the onlyy homes they now have.

Brigham Young and hii follow ers are well aware that their position if Wt secure, with the rapid inroads which1 the Gentiles are making, and while 'it is well enough to keep him reminded tl at re is a hereafter we do not believe that anything is to gained by crowding him too closely to the walKand bringing about bloodshed and disorder where the same end can be accomplished without it. 7 Taamaay BeaiTiTus. The thief of the' age, the phenom enal scoundrel of, the nineteenth century, hopes to evade the grasp of the law whicli hau squeese out some part of his plun der, or rather to give the law a dry squeeze that shall yield no plunder, by putting 4 Ci8t Det his property out of jhis hands into those of liis son and other relatives. 11.0w this lnamfest attempt tf cheat a court's inevi- 1 table' judgment rfay succeed in Xew Yorkj it is hard to tar, for things can be done there, even iai a paroxysm of reform and conjbulsory honesty, tht can be done no wheif be. jCnt any where clsebe-tween Samarcand and Francisco the law would iollow that evasive transfer and seize the property in the hands of the-ac-iessories to the Tweed has put way within a week, and 000000.

It tan be tracked as easily as the course jof the Chicago fire-- Yet don't believi will be done. We confess that we. hae no hope of ever seeing one dol-J lar of Tweed's stealings recovered to their right owner. Nor hve we any confidence that the power of Tatomanythat is the evil power of a servile, ignorant, venal, foreign vote will be.

permanently broken or even seriously impaired. Call it by whatever naitTl we may, the power that has filled nearly every city and county, effice of -New York 'with, Irish. Catholics, and has worked with iall id blind Ut the pupremacy df a dynasty o. scoundrels, bound together by religious sympathy and community of villainy will always "bear sway" th it city so blessed by nature and so horriLiy cursetl by man. No ne now living will live long enough to see the day when that power shall be enlightened'' by education, its strength guided by individual intelligence and conviction, and till that day comes the balance between parties of intelligent conviction will le held as it ha3 so long and mischievously been held.

The cry that "Tammany is broken down," "'Tammany is powerless," is takf-n up from paper to paper as the yelping, of hounds passes from tongue to tongue through the pack, and neither the paper nor the hound takes the trouble to know certainly whether it is barking at. anything or nothing. We have only to keep in mind that sensible men are usually pretty evenly divided on the questions that form the foundations of party organizations, and that the 'party to which is attached, by purchase or prejudice, a vast body of ignorant, bigoted, wretched crea tures whose votes are" the only property they have that anybody jelse would have, rotfst invariably win, to see that New York is as hopelessly doomed to slavery under her Irish taskmasters as ever the neCT0 wa4 under his owner. Thev have the ji t.v; thing of their own to bo taxed, of ruling without paying, of being "masters with all ine emoluments, ana none 01 trie re sponsibilities of power. They can keep the ower, and they will.

A temporary combination ljk that which now unices the Republicans" and Democrats against Tammany, must fall to pieces soon, and the separation will le the signal for the rea-cession of ignorance and venality to power. And or. the same embodiment and direction of the forces of ignorance arid; venalitv under another name, will stjpj to the front as masterful asitwas two yearsago. We have that abounding faith in the utter -corruption of New York, tjhat it would give us no sur prise to learp tnat in the year lbuthe city government had erected a statue to Tweed or, a monument "To the Martyrs of an Inliuiian Conspiracy in 1871." The radical cure is the education of her hordes of wretched population, the scum of (ireat Britain; or their dispersal through the country, where no" aggregation of low influences can become. great enough to be mischievous.

And we (never expect 6: see either, or any attempt at either. anybody else does we benevolently wish they may live' till they do see it, and if "the prayers of the righteous shall avail" these sanguirte fellow will realize Swift's fancy of the immortal Struldbrugs in Loputa. Law Libraries Bstraed at Chicago. i The Chicago Tribune says there is prObab- iv not a single coiiecuon ot law dooks leu in that citv winch lias any pretension to be called a library. 1 It is- doubtful if even in the whole citv a complete! set of the Illinois Reports could be gathered together.

All were swept away by the flames. The Tribune adds, and its confidence is doubtless well founded: "Wehave novloubt if the profession at larra knew of the utter and universal prostration of the Chicaeo bar. in regard to libraries, the bar of the country would only be too ready and willing to come to their relief, and contribute books or money toward founding in our law library to repair our loss. The Law Institution, an incori poration under the management of most reputable and responsiDie memoers 01 our bar, would be the means of malting such ubr erahtv most secure," permanent and effective. and of the most immediate and general ser vice." An appeal Issued by ex-Cmel usuce Wilson, pt the superior Uonrt of Chicago, says that the legal profession of the city in cludes about" five hujidred- members, most of them young men with Small means, devoting from year to year tner surplus earnings to rornune a law library.

A large number of libraries thus collected were worth from, ten to twenty thousand dollars. He also su cests that the bar of the country contribute law books for the relief of the unfortunate, and that the bars 'of London.

It is officially stated that the loss from hogs that die of 'disease in this country is annually not less than twenty million dollars; in some countries where distilleries are numerous five thousand have died of disease in one season. Some farmers give their fattening hogs salt, which will make them gain in weight much faster; but it produces a morbidly increased appetite and occasions constipation. The result is, the animal fills up with effete matters which re accumulated the cellular-tissue in the form of fat The animal grows more bulky, and as its commercial value is reckoned by weight, this process of fattening. is profitable to those whosell the swiner but not to those who eat it; for the adipose accumulation is itself a morbid condition, and the more any animal is fattened the more unwholesome it becomes.
