Boat Race.-About three weeks SINCE man
called on Mr.. Joseph Dolliver, of Boston, and
questioned him very infinitely relative to plea
sure boat called the Leader which Mr.. Dolllver
purchased for 5000, and on which he laid out
$50 in repairs The man was very particular
in ascertaining how many knots the Leader sail
ed in an hour,-wth what sails she run laStest,
how near she could lay to the wind, and I'M
der what sail it was best TO keep her in storm.
Although the man was perfect stranger, ms
enquiries excited no suspicion, as Mr.. Dolllver
was in the habit of letting out the boat, and &C
customed to have such queries put to him. In
a few days after this occurrence the boat was
stolen, and from information which Mr.. DOLL
yer received from different vessels that came IN
to Boston, he was led to believe that his boat was
on her way to this city. He accordingly pro-
ceeded hither, and yesterday morning. while on
the look out along the East river, saw his boat
and pursued her, and having come up with her.
found her in possession of the Identical person
who was so particular in his enquiries few
weeks ago in Boston. No other person was on
board, and Mr.. ID. took the man into custody
and brought him to the Police Office, where he
said his name was William Stewart and gave
so unsatisfactory an account of how he obtain
ed the boat, that he was committed to prison.
