The report embraces the criminal statistics for the year ending 31st December, 1879; miscellaneous business, from the police reg. ister; and a comparative statement, show- ing the number of convictions for the past three years in the five particular effences of drunkenness, Jarceny, assault, vagrancy and breaches of the city by-laava. In each offence—save that of vagrancy—there was a noticeable decrease in the number of offend- ers last year. The report is as follows :—

The Police Force of the City, consisting of a.Marsha!l, ten Policemen and a Bailitf, were, on thé first of May last, at the re- quest. of your, Comicil, reduced to a Marshal, iwo Sergeants, four Policemen and a Bailiff, at which number it now now remains,

The following Table will show the busi- ness of the Court for the year.

. r were engaged in oystering, they we and killed by the crew of one of these ves- sels. Another young man barely escaped the same fate by sheltering himself behind a tree, inte which as many as seven balls were fired. The arrest of these murderers seems to be impossible, from the fact that the oyster pirates are armed with the best long rifles and that they flee at the ap- preach of asuperior force. Grand juries and indictments having signally failed to protect the oystermen of Lancaster county, it is now suggested to provide a vessel with ene hundred stand of good leng range rifles, which would not only enable the citizens to protect themselves, but also to attempt the capture of the pirates ; some of the people to furnish the vessel if the State will give the proper arms. If the suggestion is car- ried out, a lively oyster war on the coast of

A Chicage despatch of the 10th inst., says :-—A grain blockade of prodigious pro- portions is the feature of the grain trade in this market at present. The elevators of the city, which contain an aggregate of 16,000,000 bushels, are very nearly filled to their utmost capacity, and several roads are refusing to receive grain for that market because when it arrives there are no accem- modations for ii. A large number of cars are lying along the tracks in the city load- ed with yrain unable to deposit. There are in storage 14,250,000 bushels, against 10,000,000 this time last year, The ex- planation is that a grain syndicate, of which Keene is the representative, have by constant purchases forced the market price of wheat in that city to a poimt where it cannot be shipped to New York, nor from New York ito Liverpool. Farmers are unable to market their grain, although prices are satisfactory. The outcome of this unprecedented situation will be watch- ed with much interest.

Astonishing Success.

It is the duty ef every person who has used Boschee’s German Syrup to let its wonderful qualities be known to their friends in euring Consumption, severe Coughs, Creup, Asthma,Pnetumonia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No per- son can use it without immediate relief. Three doses wiil relieve any case, and we ecnsider it the duty of all Druggists te re- eommend it to the poor dying consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as 40,000 dozen bottles were sold last year, and no one case where it failed was reported. Such a medicine as the German Syrup cannot be teo widely known. Ask your Druggist about it. Sample Bottles to try sold at 10 cents. Regular size 75 eents. For sale by all Bruggi
