There is an old saying, that the first
twelve days in January indicate the
weather of each month in the year. If
any day of the twelve is fair then the
month represented by that day will be
fair. Those who believe this, should keep
a record of the weather and temperature
of those days and they will have, a
weather report for the whole year.
Death of Mr. banders.
Mr. J6hn A. Sanders, a venerable citi
zen of this section, died here this morn
ing, at the residence of his son-in-law,
Col. George Harriss. The immediate
cause of his death was pneumonia; but he
had long been a sufferer with cancer. He
was among the oldest of our citizens,
and was in the 72d year of his age. The
uneral services will take place to mor
row morning, at 10 o'clock.
Un parr ait el ed Brutality.
A case ofunparralleled brutality of a
father to a child was committed in
Brunswick county a few days ago. About
six weeks ago Samuel Hurst and wife,
colored, who were laborers on ths "Lilli
put Farm," about 14 miles below this
city, left their child in a house, prop
ping up the door to keep it in. The
door fell down and crippled the child.
About two weeks ago the wife and mother
left her home and came to this city and
has not yet been heard from. Sunday
Sam Hurst wrapped the child up in a
blanket and placed it in front of a
blazing fire, locked the house up and
went off and did not return for several
hours. Upon his return he discovered
the house on fire and the roof was then
about to fall in. Had he felt disposed
he could have saved his child by open
ing the door but instead of doing what is
expected of every parent he wheeled upon
his heels and walked off. An inquest
was held over the charred remains of the
child and the evidence against the man
was so strong that he was committed to
jail.

Ltpplncotl's Magazine
The January number of Lippiucott's
Magazine, which opens a new series at a
reduced price, presents itself in an -artis
tically designed cover that at once at
tracts and pleases the eye. This favor
able impression is more than confirmed
by an examination of the contents, which
are generally light and of a thoroughly
popular-character, while marked by lit
erary excellence of a high order. The il
lustrations," too, are carefully executed,
the new arrangement -of the editorial
matter cannot fail to prove attractive,
and altogether the - number is full of
promise.
The opening article, an account of'a
Roman Art-School, is from the vivacious
pen of Mrs. Margaret Bertha Wright,
and is illustrated from drawings by a
elever young French artist, M. Mat
thieu. "An Old New England Seaport,"
by Charles Burr Todd, recalls the check
ered history of New London, Conn.,
whose grass-grown streets, decayed ware
houses, and rotting hulks were once filled
with the bustle of traffic and adventure.
The illustrations have what is nowadays
the rare merit of being faithful tran
scripts of the scenes and objects they pro .
fess to represent
The artist's pencil has also been em
ployed to heighten the attractiveness of a
novelette, to run through three numbers.
This story, , entitled "Lilith," from the
name of the heroine, is certain to make
a strong impression. The seene is laid in
Indiana, the characters are numerous and
graphically contrasted, and the incidents
are told with dramatic force. Among
the short stories, "The Called Meeting,"
by Jennie Woodville, is one of the most
admirable and amusing" sketches of negro
character ever published.
! There are several articles in the .num
ber deserving more detailed mention
than we are able to give them,
The "Monthly Gossip" is jgreatly ex
tended Oyer a dozen short and s pirited
papers, by .various contributors, make
oianMVaBsVar

ery class.
Just as Easy
Combination safe locks may be a very
good thing, but sometimes they area
little puazling. Take the instance of a
vault lock belonging to the Wayne coun
ty Bank, at Wooster, 0. The' officials
forgot the combination and were for
nearly two months unable to get at $10,
000 too securely lockedjip. Presently a
stranger came to the town and volunteer
ed lis services to removo tha difficulty.
What must have been the surprise of the
officers of the bank when the new-comer
mastered the lock in a few minutes.
Nojr, it would, in the first place, be of
interest to know the profession of eaid
straager, and in tho second to discover
whether all combination locks can not
be as readily opened if the right sort of
fellow comes along.

They last for ever. t
Tbe Sun.
Son spots that can be seen by the un
assiied eye are rare. Such a spot is
nowjyisible a little to the right of and
belojr the centre of the sun'a disk. By
protecting the eyewith a piece of smoked
or caored glass, the spot may be seen
like I black speck on the smooth, yellow
surface. An opera glass magnifying
threl or four times makes the spot con
spicuous. A teloseope shows it to be
composed of two huge spots, each many
thousand miles in extent, and surrounded
by avast shadowy border, or penumbra.
A notion may be formed of tha tremend
ous brces that arc at work upon the
sun rhen it is recollected that the earth
couli probably be dropped into either of
the wo charms that this spot contains.
Yet inch holes in the sun are often
fonnd or closed up in a few days or
even a few hours. .
