Mr. T. T). Stewart met with the good
luck to find a solit gdd ring last week
v. hieh he lost on the stu ets i:i Dunn

saw the party pick up the ring and took
it and found on tlie inside Mr. Stewarts
initials. It is ill irood condition and
looks as if it was new. j
He v. Geo. T. Simmons pastor of j

Paper was so scaice when the
American army entered Philadelphia
upon the evacuation of the British
troops in June, 1778, that there was
a want of paper fitted for the con
struction of catridges, It was ad
veriised for and but a small quauti
ty procured. An order was then
issued demanding its instant produc
tion by all the people ia that cit
who had iC. This produced but lit
tle more, very probably on the ac
count of its scarcity. A detail of
soldiers was tl en ordered 'to make
search for it in every place where it
was likely to be found. Among
other pi ices visit ed in July was a
garret in the house in whicfi lienja
