Lord, "that, the Sun must conie dowu to cue cent. A change like this is nothing more than a revolution iu newspaper-makkg." Heretofore the World has published the only eight-page two-cent paper in New York. The Herald sells for three cents and the Tribune at four cents. Some time ago Mr. Bennett talked abont putting the prUe of his paper up to the English standard of fire cents, but within a year I ana told that he has seriously aonteuiplated a reduction to two.

Early last month, he said, he had given his wife $500 to buy some articles wanted. He had not seen her since until he found her with Kindmark iu Mount Morris.

"I suppose you have spent my said the Michigan husband to his wife on meeting her, "and that ends that. All I came here for was to see whether this man could give you a good living, and if ho could I intended to take you away i him. After looking him over, I sou that he will have pretty hard scratching to get you enough to eat and wear. I'll leave you with because serve you right." And with these stoical remarks, the old gentleman took the nest train on his way back to Michigan. Smith is a a Englishman.

The American Flag-Carrier. SAYBROOK, Sept. Bates, the American flag-carrier, is at his home in this place making preparations for carrying the American flag from to Savannah. For some months past the sergeant has been iu poor health, as has also his wife, who is almost a confirmed invalid- It is thought that Bates has aboat lost his mind as well as his health, and the prospects, i a i the present efforts now being made for his march, are that he will never reach the South. His family for the pabt few years have been living in poverty, owing to tho shiftlessness of the head of the family.

Officer Kerehaw took him to tho look-up, where he remained all night and was given a hearing this morning and re-committed for 24 hours.

Aikeu of Chester, who was to have spoken here on the 25th so that we expect to have the pleasure of hearing Mr. Kelley on that evening. Mr. Aikeu made a mosteloqueut and convincing argument, based upon the ground that the temperance work should begin in the church, saying "we have in some States prohibition, und if the church members will come up to tho help of the Lord uguinst the mighty, soon in every State wo shall have prohibition." Ho gave as a rule of action "Moral suasion for the rum diitiker, legal suasion for the rum seller and prohibition for the State," and grouping about these points a great number of brilliant, sparkling and soul stirring thoughts which made profound and A Tli'ief Eiiter- UUil off Hundred Dollars.

The thief entered a front window by prying open the shnt- teis und found his way up stairs, where he took tho money from drawer, where it hsul been put'for safekeeping by sister of r. Maris, tho hitter who was attending Court at Media, leaving it in her charge, as ho did not like tho idea of carrying so much money about with him, having received it but this day before.

Tho woman at first supposed it was Mr. Maria, und weut down stuirs aud inquired if he was at home. Being informed that ho was in Media, she startled the inmates by telling them there was a man in tho house. Search was made for the intruder, who, in the meantime, had made his escape through the front window by which he kad entered, being discovered about thirty yards from the house, us ho was abont making his way into a cornfield. He wus recognized as a burly negro with side whiskers, aud wearing a dark coat and brown pants.

The thief headed for Sueath 8 Corner, where he inquired for the residence of Joseph Eugle and said that he looking for work. A party started in pnnuit of him and arrived at just ten minutes after the burglar. They coutinned the search and Lister, the butcher, who said that he had met a negro of that description, who had itoppod him and told him vf as looking for work, hut had plenty of money, at the time telling him he had some hil'i, which he said he hud taken from a house. He also pulled ont a revolver from hia pocket aud declared that he would blow tho head oil" any body attempting to arrest him. Some distance further was traversed, bnt all attempts to discover his whereabouts were fruitless, aud tho search wus abandoned.

The burglary was one of tho boldest attempted arouud here for sometime, and everv effort should bo made to arrest the thief aud give him the full penalty of the law. The fellow must have had an inkling of the amount of money in the house, as he came at a time when everything wus favorable to his purposes.

The latter is on the side hill near tho northern terminus of the Gay street bridge, now in course of erection. "Old Sky" belonged to the Lenni-Lenape or Delaware tribe of Indians. All the members of tho tribe left, but "Old Sky" could not be persuaded to leave with them, and lived for many years and died there. His cabin was on a bind'north of 'the French Creek. This bluff had been sloped oft' by "Sky" and in front of it had grown pears, apples and other i trees, supposed to have grown from the seeds thrown out These afforded a shade for his cabin in the snmmer and i in an- tunm for his family.

''Sky's' 1 squaw took her children to the creek every morning, winter and summer, and gave them a cold biith. Tne pappooses would stand on the shore shivering awaiting their turn at the immersion. "Sky 1 finally died and was buried in the Indian burying ground, near the present basin of the Phrenixvilla water works.
