A rart UaJ t'saa)lttel i Jail. Marshal Shofer returned from Newport last evening and Informed us that in addition to the good enumerated in yesterday's Palladium were two large trunks brought by Dan Lipscom from Chicago, few weeks since, which were found to contain a large quantity of costly wearing apparel tor men and women, jewelry and other articles of value. In one of the trunks was found a large number of letters, some of which was correspondence with the Younger gang of outlaws. On last Saturday night the house of Jacob Thomas, near Arba, was robbed, and circumstances pointed so plainly to the fact that the goods were concealed In the Itlpscom mansion that a aeaich war. rant was procured, and a search made by Constable Hodgin and assistants with the result heretofore announced. William Llpscom. Mary Ann Mason (mother of the IJpscoms) and Alexander Mason, step-father, were arrested, "" and had a preliminary examination before Squire Coates, who committed them to the county jail In default of $160 bail for their appearance at court. . Dan Llpscom, the ring-leader of the gang, who the brother arrested says brought the goods Identified by Thomas to the house, escaped. He Is a noted desperado. A charge of burglary, committed two years ago, Is pending against him here. He has been operating in Chicago several years, where he has acquired an unenviable reputation as a during scoundrel. On his escape from Newport, he came to this city and passed Wednesday night. Where he went to from here can not be ascertained, and It Is probable that ho will elude capture.

A pleasant surprise to Charity Coffin of this place, widow of Stephen Coffin and daughter of John Coats, now nearly ninety years of age, took place yesterday, on the occasion of the sixtyfourth anniversary of her birth. On last Saturday night some sneak thief entered the house of Abraham Sbeeley, of Westriver township, and took from his pantaloon pockets his pocket book, which contained sixtyone dollars. Mr. Sheeley had been here in town with a load of poultry and drawn his money here that day, and it may be that it was some person who was aware of the fact. Ellnu Warren, living near Saratoga, met with a serious accident last Satur day by the discharge of a pistol which he pad In his hand.

When these are insufficiently supplied, its energies begin to flag, there Is a loss of flesh, the muscles grow flaccid, the reflective powers lose vigor every function is disturbed, every organ weakened.

When, In so capricious a climate as Scotland, one Is seized, in midwinter. by the spirit of travel, it Is a nice point to decldo where to direct one's steps. On the east coast there are always winds from the German Ocean, on the west there are incessant rains, and everywhere the short days and long nights of a high latitude. But It is better to brave obstacles than to rust idly away, and especially in so inter esting a country, one is tempted to keep always going like that ill-fated traveler in the days of Job to and fro iiy the land, and to walk continually up jPiSf' In it. Fortunately there is littk danger of going amiss, for events f havj ibaen so thick sown, and history dtfumance have so illuminated every imifcof the country, that a glen or a fntmiet without its tragedy or its tra dition, would be noted for that very deficiency. Certain events bad invested St. An drews with such an Interest as the January weather conld not chill, so I went in quest of the old. out-of -the way town, rich In ruined splendors, seats of learning, bold, past deeds and tragical remembrances. St. Audrews, as Is fitting for a place whose richest life was lived hundreds of years ago, Is connected with the more prosaic por tlons of the earth in an indirect way, and by the slightest tie, as if protest ing against the commercial and mechanical order of things which rules in the present century. There Is a short line of railroad branching from the main one, which retraced, a little, the way I had come, and then bore me off to the desolate sea shore, and along it to a station a mile from the town. I could only regret that so medieval a place was not on an island, to which pilgrims were to be carried on a cumbrous hulk with flapping, weather-worn sails, or even which were better on a galley rowed by prisoners condemned for state offenses, as in the days of chivalry. But St. Andrew's being solidly planted on mainland, it seemed there was no more picturesque thing to be done, than to take a lumbering coach that was waiting there, and drive through the chill rain to the hotel nearest the ruined cathedral and Its ruined surroundings. From the hotel I made, during a two days' stay, unremitting sallies through the storm, pursuing ay object under every difficulty. The first of them was that I he keepers of the ruins and other places of attraction, supposing that no nan visits in so umavoraoie weatner, had gone home with their keys. The keeper of the "Burying Ground" alone was at his poet, beiug at the bidding of a master who knows neither times nor seasons, and this ground surrounding the cathedral and other ecclesiastical ruins, there was no obstacle in the way of seeing them. Some of the structures are of so ancient date, that it is necessary to go back into very early times to gather material for an account of them, so while on the subject. It were as well to go a step farther back, and see how it came about that St. Andrews exists at all. The good town, it would seem, owes its locality to the exceeding badness of its bay, for had that sheet of water been tolerable to the extent that a vessel venturing on It, In rough weather, could have managed to make its way out again, its now classical shores might have been forever innocent of colleges aud cathedrals. Now followeth the authentic history which I have, with great cat e, compiled from erudite sources. About the year 370, a Greek monk named Kegulus was warned, in a vision, to seek the shrine of St. Andrew, and procuring from it some saintly relics, to sail with them to the farther most western extremity of the world, to establish there a religious foundation. The home-loving Begulus had no liking for the project, and required a great deal of prompting by the vision, but at last, getting no peace, he yielded, and having obtained the arm bone of the saint, as well as three finger bones and three toe bones, he gathered together seventeen monks and three nuns, and set out on his western venture. Begulus seems to have chosen a slow-going vessel, for It was after a two years' sail that an ill wind blew him into the stormy bay and wrecked the ship, and very nearly submerged tlie poor monks and nuns and all the saintly bones. However, a nar aia not c quite .overtAk&sr .tfrninflar, nf trtA .hllT-nh whrt saved twmselves throngh the utmost exertiorctnd by the aid, no doubt, of the sacred relics they bote, and they took refuge in acave in a rock that jutted out upon the sea. There they set up housekeeping and there they received, one day, a visit from Hergust, king of the Plcts. The king is said to have been so pleased with the simplicity of their domestic arrangements and of their religion, that he became a convert to the Christian faith, along with his whole people, and he it was who built for them the square tower and chapel called St. Regulos tower. The wails of this building, standing in great strength and entirety to-day, prove that whatever other qualities the new convert may have had, he was clearly aAjove the meanness of slighting his masonry. . . t . After this burst of historical light, St Andrews la left ta grope its way unnoticed for nearly five hundred years, when King Hungust of the Plcts, having invaded Korthumbria. found himself In danger of defeat, imprisonment and perhaps death, among his enemies. In this strait the pious king made overtures to his saint, promising one-tenth of all his dominions as a reward for a victory. The saint accepted the proposal, and laying a heavy hand on the poor Northumbrians, won his reward speedily. Hungust, who seems to have been a rather manly sort of king, attempted no sharp practice on the saint, but paid him up honestly, and even added some presents. . When," in 840. the King of the Scots vanquished the King of the Picts and blotted oat his nation, our saint came to be in higher honor than before. If that were possible, being constituted the patron saint of the whole kingdom, which he remains to this day. The town, which contained his relics ceased to be known as "The King's Cell on the Mount," but took his own name, and van made the civil and ecclesiastical capital of the country. Coming down to the thirteenth century, I find the annual Income of the Bishop of St. Andrews to be so many times greater

than our President present salary that, from a feeling of patriotic senst Uveneaa, I forbear to mention the amount. From the founding the bishopric to the Reformation, there were thirty six bishops aad eight archbUhope, one of whom was cardinal One of these was killed by the Danes, one was hung for treason and murder, one met with a violent deatn provoked by the fnllnesa and ripeness of his sins, one (a king's son) died uion Flodden Field, and a few ended their days In i""d in merited peace. , . , . Uaviug brought my history down past that period of romantic interest which allows so pleasant scope to the Imagination, I now relinquish the sub--ject to the professed cnronieler, and return to the "burying-ground from which I set out. Taking the ruins in the order of their ag, I begin with St. Begulus' Tower; for, patting aside monkish tradition, there is evidence of its great

antiquity. It ia one hundred and eight feet liiQ, solemn and massive, and bids fair to stand through many an other century. The summit is reached by a spiral stairway, dark, for the most part, as midnight, and altogether wearisome to a chilled and fatigued traveler whose wrappings are unduly heavy with rain. My guide gets far In advance as he winds around, onward and upward, long after the light of the last narrow silt In the wall has a led out. Leaning agaloet the rough, thou sand-year-old masonry for support, and listening in the black darkness to the ascending tread till it becomes a ghostly footfall, I drifted back into the old time, and began pleasantly to feel myself belonging to the life of those ages with which these monuments had practical connection, when I was sud denly recalled to prosalo realities by the kindest of voices, in the broad est of accents, calling from the upper darkness to know if i was "get tin' weel on." Mustering anew my strength, and keeping well to the outer wall, I In time reached the summit, and there in the rain and the cold, and in such wind as Mows only from the Ger man Ocean in January, I took a view of the good town anil the country round about, and the coasts of the sea, and the bay whose history is an account of shipwrecks. Only the night before, a trading vessel was lost, a lew miles off, on the coast, and the wreck was platnly visible. Three or four miles off is seen the wood where Archbishop Sharpe was murdered on his way home from London, it .mow, the town is spread out like a map, looking small and com pact, the streets showing their every curve, and their gateways called "pends." one of which is a sort of outgrowth of loyalty, having been built to ao honor to a visit or some king or other. The gray, old ooliege buildings and churches, the broken tower of the castle, the Martyrs' monument, and an exquisitely light and graceful ruin of a chapel In a busy etreet, are all plainly recognizable. While I traced them out, the rain never ceased nor the wind, so I was the sooner ready to betake myself to the stairs and the darkness. When we had almost reached the ground the guide called attention to a square-hewn beam of oak, fixed above our heads, not a part of the building, but In harmony with it, and this, he said, was no less interesting a relic than a piece of one of the ships of the Spanish Armada. It was recovered, after lying a long time In the water. where the ship was wrecked, and it served as a lintel of one of the gateways of the burying ground, until the covetous gaze of the Edinburgh Anti quarian Society became fixed upon it, when the wary people of St. Andrews thought it time to place their treasure under lock and key. Edinburgh has such an insatiable desire for old clothes. and bits of mouldering sticks, aud rusty nails, and broken pottery, and pleoes of decayed shrouds, that her neighbors seem to think it necessary to look to the security of even their grave-yard appurtenances. Near to the square tower are the much fallen to decay', buttllT ahdwfhg" ' the elegance of Its Gothic architecture. Three of its towers remain, and a portion of a windowed wall, but of the columns, nothing Is left but the bases, and of the altar, only its floor, made of great slabs of stone, partly covering three stone coffins of some old-tlK.e bishops. The cathedral was founded In 1159, and was 160 years in being nompleted, but one day sufficed for its demolition, and for that of the adjoining monastic buildings, under the fury excited by one f John Knox' sermons. The remains of the priory Indicate that its grandeur was not overestimated by writers who declared It second to none in England, France, Italy or Germany, either in worldly wealth or spiritual graces. Indeed, the completeness wLh which the celibate saints made(be glory of God harmonize rlf""i , j5? n(l comfort of themortaJi' at r' marvel and a delight to thr-- fed. The object ,-ug the greatest historical intei'&rvjemySt Andrews, is the ruin of the castnefvhlch was episcopal palace as well as state prison. It was foucded in 1200, atni during the first few hundred years, it was taken by the English and retaken several times, and was once demolished by the Scots, lest It fall Into the enemy's hands. - Late in the 14th century it was rebuilt, and for the next 150 years it figured greatly both in church and state. It was duly pillaged by the Douglases, and was, for a time, the prison of the Duke of Bothesay. James the I. was partly educated here, and James II. was taught here, by the good Bishop Kennedy, how to break the power of the Douglases. That valuable Instruction seems to have been to break their necks as well as their power, by throwing them out of a window. James III. was born here, to that Inglorious career, which was to end.so obscurely Jn the little mill at CjMaaasPas and &g- These walls. i luiu Minn so weignty ana events, have mostly dlsaptragical peared. but enough remains to show the plan of the building, the verge of the shore. It stood on hose vast rock formed, on two sides, its natural foundation At the seaward angle, under a strong tower, Is an inhumanly constructed prison, a monstrous beer bottle, eighteen feet deep, cut out of the solid rock; prisoners were lowered Into it, and taken out of it by a windlass. Their bed was a bunch of straw and their food barley bread and water. The woman who has charge there, lowered a lighted candle into it, and swung it to and fro, by a rope, that I might see the damp floor and the damp wall on every side, and the utter pitiless ness of its construction, for there is no outlet or Inlet, or crevice for the air, or single jutting stone on which to fasten a hope. Though not faint of heart. I felt that to be shut In this place, would to me be death It is called a fine specimen of a "keep" so fine is it, that we will trust there is no better In the whole world. The old woman recounted as she swung her eandlefhow many people of note were lowered into it, and how few of them all came ont to live. The Duke of Bothesay was kept here before being taken to Falkland to be starved to death, and Wis hart, the martyr wm taken oat of it, to be burned alive, in the presence of Cardinal Beaton, who had doomed him. But the event that gives greatest in terest to the place Is the death of Car dinal Beaton himself. Standing In front of the castle, it is easy to picture to O'.e's self all the circumstances of the tragedy. Here was the drawbridge. across which the assassins stole In the early morning, in company- with the workmen engaged on the castle; be neath is the great ditch that received the strangled porter Into its eoaoeaUng waters. Above, to the right, was the window, across whose sill stretched the dishonored, dead body of the pow erful prelate, and to the left is the seawashed town, in which his corpse was salted away in a lead chest. In the

centre of the town, is the beautiful ruin of a chapel within which the at-ties of the wicked man were at last laid away to their final rest. During the prelaey of Cardinal Beaton, the castle might almost have oern called the political capital of StHitiaud, fur the Bgeut Arran who faiteringly held the reins of government was so weak, while the

Primate was mo atrong. After the CardinaXa death the castle was held for five montha by the tnjr Were and their friends. At the end of that time they were taken, and some of the principal defenders, among whom was John Knox, were carried to France and worked as galley slaves. The castle was at that time demolished, but was rebuilt by Archbishop Hamilton, sue eessor to Beaton. Early in the 17th century it was allowed to go to final decay, and later much of the material was used in improving the harbor, thus virtually converting swords into plow shares. St. Andrews was an early seat of educational institutions, the university being founded in 14 1 L It now includes two colleges: St. Mary's, which is purely theological, and the United tJouege, which combines the old St. Leonard's aud St. Salvator's. The great ball of St. Mary's contains many Interesting relics, but that which attracted me most was a painting in oil of Cardinal Beaton. It represents him as in the prime of life, with regular features, full and florid of face, a man not given to unduly mortifying the flerh There is a library of 60,000 volumes, mostly great, timeeaten tomes iu the dead languages. Whether iu this age nieu read them, or whether In effect, they are to be classed with St. Begulus' tower, aud the castle "keep," I cannot. answer. There is one more place which claims to be worthy of a stranger's notice, and I am inclined to yield to its pretensions, for it would be hard to find among the church architecture of that country, more distinguished architectural ugliness than the "Town Church" presents. It was founded in 1112, but the pres -nt edifice was erected iu 1800. It has lately undergone improvements, so what Hp unimproved appearancaouj can uiy guess. At preseM i reseoiuies a monstrous old-fashion-barn, with its mown turned into gal' les. and it threshing- floor fltted up -tn pews. The great show is the rrnument to Archhisnop Sharpe, In ck and white marble, which was eute in Holland, nearly two hundre years ago. It has very elaborate rre8ea" tations in bas-relief, 'bowing the detail's of his anamination. Covering the front ol a olack marble sarcophagus is a most fulsome epitaph in Latin, tettinsr forth how great a friend thearch bishop was to God, and how iniplatlo an enemy he was to His euemiAUo, how tho brightness of his geius and his learning must needs h the whole world to spread over, Sootuid being entirely too narrow a fiellfor it. Then there is a lifesize effigy f the archbishop kneeling on a inarby cushion, which represents him as a rher old man, with a somewhat gray thin face. About him are several dubby, robust angels, performing ( variety of services for the holy marfr. It is a costly work of art, and giould last through an indefi nite timtjfas there is a large annuity to be applid to keaplng it in order. The ctu&yteadle insisted upon my seeing the communion cup and bap tismal basin of beaten silver, weighing ever so many pounds, which Arch bishop Sharpe bad presented to the church juet before his assassination. lie also stowed me. in a sort or. lum ber-room, a "cutty stool," a stool of repentance, a gag which had actually been used to prevent some too garru lous parishioner from talking, and various other obsolete and curious Instru ments of church discipline. I have at last finished witn tne St. Andrews of the past, and will give one glance to it as It is now. It is a quiet town. Door AThwirh. no doubt, In the old. hnmhln UJ t but with pleasant . . m 1 . araiAfnl wtm pretty mansion. Its society claims special gentility. -the air it breathes not being contaminated with the smoke of manufactories, but pervaded rather with the spirit of learning and scholas tic refinements. As to its industries, I could hear only of a little fishing. The great amusement of the town and the con ntry around it is the ancient game of golf; for its chief club, numbering six hundred noblemen and gentlemen. Is the grand, parent club of all Scotland. Several gold and silver medals are yearly contended for with great spirit, aud the "links," which extend two miles along the sea-coast, are far the best in the kingdom. In short, modern St. Andrews without its golf would be as tame and uninteresting a place as the ancient town wanting Ms castle, and cathedral. AMUSEMENTS.
