HOBBING THE COUNTY. A Schoolmarm's Strategy-Details of the Trick. On the second of Ootober, Philip Wilson, a chored youth, called at Major Delany's office and presente ! a check for a teacher's pay certi cate for the month commencing 1st September and ending 1st October, 1471, which was after? wards dl: covered to bc a fjrgery. This check was given to Philip Wilson by Ann Huger. Cpon presenting this ch'.ck, Wilson was brought to the office ol Mr. Gurney, county treasurer, and, upon comparing tue signatures or E. M. Grimke and J. F. Po; pen heirn, school commissioners, upon the check, with others, they wtre f und to be forgeries. Wilson was lmmedia ely arrested by Trial Justice Magrath, and an examination of the case was held, Ann Huger being a witness She statt d that lur pay certificate was the genuine one, and that the one presented by Philip Wilton was a cipy. Cpon this statement Wilson w-s committed to jail for further exami? nation. A few days afterwards lt was discover?, d that ihe school known as Hajne's Chapel was closed during the months or Ju y and August. Ann Huger being the principal of the school, bad filed her report as principal, certifying that the school was open e!g it ten days during the month of July, and seventeen days during the month of August. Upon the statement of Ann Huger, Mr. E. M. brimke, school commissioner, issued pay certifica es to the amount of fifty-eight dollars fer Ann Huger, and forty-eight dollars for ber assist! ant. Sarah Harcourt, and tba amounts were col? lected fr.m the county treasurer. It was after? wards ascertained, upi n good authority, that the school was cl oed during the months of July and August, 1871, and that Ute r?pons which were nude by Ann Huger we e false, and also that she bad failed to pay her assistant, having given lier but twenty-four dollA's and thirty cents cut or the forty eight dollar* which she collec ed for her. She als > stated to Sarah Bar? ee ult that ihlB was all the money which they were to receive for the months that the school was cloded. A warrant was thereupon issued for the arrest of Ann Huger for obtatnlog money under false pretences, and an examination waa held at the t-ffice of Tr.al Justice Magrath on Sa? turday, October 14th instant, at which time the rollowlog developments were made : That In? stead or tb? said Philp wilson having commit? ted t*e forgery as was supposed, lt was proved to be Ann Huger. That in presenting ile certificate of pay or Sarah Harcoult, she had also forged the mme or Sarah Harcoult. Taat the schoO] was never opened du-ing those months, and that Sarah Harcoult had never received bnt half the amount which was collected by her as repre stnted ror Sarah Harcoult. Sbe was thereupon committed to jail lo default cf one thou' an J dol? lars se urlty to answer before the Court of Gene? ral Sessions the charges of fo - gery and obtaining money ruder raise pretences. Wilson's bond has been reduced to two thousand dollars, to appear at the same court SB a witness. THE OAKLEY MURDER. The evidence adduced yesterday before the trial justice In this case was ot a highly Interest ing nature, and completely refutes the prc /lons statement o! the prhoner, Bolden, who attempted 11 maint ala his alibi. The bloody clothes referred to ai-c. confirmed the ?tory or the murder, and Implicate flve-flcgered Anthony as one or the principal actors, Instead or a looker on, as bis confession admits.

The affldsvit of William Robinson, the only witness examined, is as follows : That he ret ides on Dereei's lot, at No. - Wash? ington street, about one hundred and fifty yards from i ne Northeastern Railroad depot; that on Sunday, the 8th instant, at abent eight o'clock in the morning, deponent was sitting tn the store of Ur. - Klintworth, which store ls on said lot, when deponent Baw the prisoners, Samuel White and AM h ny Thomson, enter the said store; that Samnel White, on entering, asked to be shown some clothing, and purchased a reit hat, a shirt, a pair of pams, and a coa' and pair of shoes; and Anthony Toombon, the man who has six augers on each hand, bought a coat a pair or pants and a pair of shoes; when they entered the store White had on neither shoes nor coat, but was lo hts shirt sleeves; Thomson had on a light cotton coat, but no shoes.

C., has been nominated mern1 ero! the Spanish Cong:ess for his State, while ou a visit to that country. Senor de Mon? eada belongs io one of the most liberal and most respectable ramilles in Murcia, his native State." COUNTRY GULLS AND CITY SHARPERS.-Sat? urday m ?rn inp, a notorious city sharper, Thom? as I'rtant al as Phlladelphi i, left the city behind him and weat np the road io Hud some simple rusti.- with more money than brains upon whom to exercise his wit. About elt ht miles from the city lie came to two old colore 1 people, possessed or tte requisite qualification?, to whom he unfold? ed a neat little speculation by which monejl could be doubled In small sums lu the course or an hour. The bait took, aud one or the old folks produced his hoard of seventeen dollars and the ether of three dollars, which they placed in the hanls or the swindler. They sent their Eon along to guard against knaveiy, and the boy with the sharper came to the city. At the corner of King and Line streets, Philadelphia persuaded the youthlul rustic to sit down while he went off to make the Investment. The boy waited long enough, but no Philadelphia ever came bacX, and late in the night he went back to his parents to (ell them or their loss. The money was all that i he old people had saved to pay their rent, and Uieir grier knew no bounds. They came to Hie city, and having reade their statement before Trial Justice Magrath, a warran*, was issued against Philadelph ii ou the charge of swindling and cheating, lie was arrested yesi erda; and committed to jail for examination to day.

THE GREAT SOUTHERN PUNO MANUFACTORY. We refer with special pleasure to the advertise? ment or the great Southern plano manufactory of J Messrs. Wm. Knabe A Co., of Ballimore. This factory ls now one of the largest in the wor'.d; lt ls a magnificent flve-story structure, fronting an entire block on Eu aw street, and covering, together with the lumber yard3 attach? ed, some two and one-half acres of ground. Th-ee hundred and fifty men are constantly employed turning out over forty instruments per week. Among the thousand and one pianos offered to the public, we s:arcely know any Instrument so fully uniting all the desirable qualities sought for as the Knabe plano. It ls a matter of some dim cnlty and perplexity to Inexperienced persons to select a good Instrument or any capacity. We too often rely upon the judgment or friends In the se? lection of a plato, and are thus frequently disap? pointed. The only Bure way, In our opinion, is to go to the best maker. For this reason we reborn mend to our readers to purchase pianos of Wm. Knabe A Co.'s manufacture. This wi l relieve them the vexatious necessity of wasting time In a long search. Toe reputation of the Knabe pianos tj an mrallible guarantee or excellence. For du? rability we would specially recommend them, as t elog m . de in a Southern city, with a special view to the trying changes cr a Sontbern climate. CONTINENTAL INSURANCE COMPANT. OF NEW YORE.-From a circular Issued by the Continental Insurance Company to its agents, we glean the following fa ts, viz: The IOSB of this company by the Chicago fire will reach very nearly one mi ll?n two hundred thousand dollars, which ls less than the amount of the earned surplus possessed by the company, leaving it In possession of a majority or all Ita present assets, being an amount thereof equal to the entire capitol of the company, and la addi tlon thereto a surplus largely exceeding the un? earned premium upon all outstanding risks. The company is enabled to B?stalo this lost of an amount more than twice as great as Its cap! tal without imputing that capital, by reason of the wise forethought exhibited tn the adoption In 1866 of the participation system. The value of that system In making Insurance cheap has been proved by the redemption at its par value and Interest of all issues from 1857 to issi inclusive, and l's more value In making the customers of the company more safe, ls now equally well establlshel by the results of this Ure. The board at its late meeting determined, fer the purpose of maintaining the pre-eminent posi? tion of the company, and from the propriety of uniting to conservative underwriting an abun? dant capital, and for thc further purpose of avoiding, BO far as ls practicable, disturbing the permanent investments or the company, to in? crease Its capital to one million dellars. While the present stockholders are by law en? title I to the first right or taking the additional amount, it ls gratifying to know that the mem be: s or the board, present at the meeting, agreed not only to take their respective proportions or the amount, bat applied for over $300,000 in addi tlon to their quotas. Notwithstanding this Increase of capital, the company adheres to Its conservative course or In surlng, tbat is, to write moderate lines upon any single risk, and to in ure only at adequate rates. All companies which expect to remain solvent will be compelled to advance their rates or pre? miums materially. Tne agents of the Continental, Messrs. w. B.
