becomes labor; it they walk, they soon
tire; mental dibits become a burden, and

OFrlCIAL CITY PAPER.
ALBANY, qjJEGOX, JAN. 19, ; 1877.
LOCAL MATTERS.
Attlmptei) llouiiEiiY. Last Sunday
evening, during the absence of Judge
Powell anil family, wlio were attending
tliurcli, some big footed tbiet entered bis
residence, in the western part of the city,
and went ''thronsrb it" in searcb of coin.
Every door in the house, we believe, was
fastened save and except the front door,
which, as bus been the almost invariable
custom, was left unlocked. Tlie thief en
tered the front door ami made right for the
J ti'lge's bed-room. A lamp set 1100:1 the
bureau, ttnlightcd, and the thief either
took off or knocked off iu the dark the
chimney of the lamp, as it lay on the car
pet when tlie lamily returned. He then
commenced ruuiaging the drawers of the
bureau, burning lucifer matches (a full
supply ot which be seemed to have on hand,
as the floor ot tlie bed-room was strewn
with them, probably a little more than
halt-bnrned), to aid him in bis search. As
the matches etnlted but a dim light, it
would not be so apt to attract .attention as,
if he had lighted the Jam p. From the bu
reau he went to the bed, and pawed that
over to his satisfaction. lie then went In
to the bed-room occupied by the Judge's
oldest soil, and gave that a thorough search.
From there he went after the what-not
standing in the parlor and the bed in the
same room, thoroughly ransacking both,
and wherever he went through that house
ho left the imprint ot two immense feet
feet that were encased in huge boots or
shoes that were soaked iu mud, which oozed
off of them, upon the carpets, leaving a
btain that reonircd energetic scrnbbing to
remove on Monday. Although the thief
made a general search through the house,
leaving quantities of stubs of partly burn
ed niatel es in every room, he had bis
"pains for his trouble," as there was
neither money or jewelry there lor him to
carry off, and so far the family have miss
ed nothing of value. It may be just as
well for our police officers to keep a sharp
look out for these night prowlers, and per
haps next lime they won't getoffso easily.
EXTKACTS FIlOM A 1'mVATK I.ETTLK.
From a letter received from a former citi
zen of tliis city, now a resident of Michigan,
we take the liberty of making a tew ex
tracts: "tVe arc very much pleased with
tlie weekly visits of the KEGisTrn. Mrs.
VT. says wc can not get along without it,
so send it alnr.g tor another year. Wc en-jo3-
our new field of labor wondrously.
Tl.e snow is two and a half feet deep, and
the weather not extremely cold; so we en
joy the sleighiitf; very much. 'We have
had fine sleighing for about six weeks, and
there is 110 appearance of a change in the
weather. Ihiring tlie mouth of December
we had some pretty cold weather lor Oie
goniaus, but these Michiindcrs are used
to it, and say it is just the kind ol winter
weather we want.' Times are not quite
so dull here as they were some months ago.
Tlie election, of Gov. Hayes and the pros
pect of a foreign war 'have revived its
again.' Xot that we favor war in any
country; no, no; we are for peace anil good
will among all men everywhere, yet every
bojy knows the ren!t of a foreign war up
on the business interests of our own
country. Surely the election of Gov. Hayes
should be received gladly and hailed with
joy by all the good people in the United
States, llomanisiii cannot triumpirin this
land. The I,ord reigns, and we will trust
in him forever. AVe arc having
excellent meetings in MarcelJns. Many
have professed conversion and others are
seeking mercy. - Over sixty have been' re
ceived into the church since conference, and
tweuty were at the altar last night ( Jan. 4).
The influence ot the great meeting held in
Chicago has been felt all over these West
ern States. Ministers who attended the
Moody and Sankey meetings came back
with hearts all aflame with the love of
Christ, and revival meetings are being held
in nearly all the churches. p I see
by the llEGi-STLR that the churches in Al
bany arc earnestly at work I mean in get
ting up festivals and looking out tor, the
finances. I hope all will now go to work
for the salvation of souls. God b!es3 all

At the Dei-ot We are requested by
railroad authorities to'call the attention of
parents to the dangers that children who
arc allowed fo go to the -depot daHy-tire in.
curring by their want of judgment. The
little Shavers get on to the cars the moment
they stop, mount clear to the roof and
race around like mad, running the risk ot
falling to the ground or between the cars
and being mangled or crippled for life.
Then when the train starts a number will
cling to tlie cars, jumping offafter the train
is under full headway. The o.Hcer.5 of the
road are daily fearing some dreadful acci
dent to these little shavers ami are doing
what they can to prevent it, but unless the
pa rents aid them by keeping the children
trom the depot, some one wiil have a crip
pled if not a dead boy, sure.
The Wilton-Tkoete Gave their -first
entertainment in this ciry on Wednesday1
evening, at the Opera House, to a fair au

was unanimous so far as we observed in ita
commendations of the troupe, and they
done them but simple justice, as those who
witnessed the entertainment Wednesday
night can testify. They gfve an entertain
ment that will please and entertain, and
those who attend once will desire to do so
again.. They gave an entertainment last
evening and we suppose will give another
this evening, but we are not advised as to
tlie matter. However, if they do, go.
