Another Arrest.

Nelson Keys was on Thursday las, ar
rested and committed to Jail, as an ac-
complete of Trowbridge, Hunt, Wilson,
Stewart, Pence Baldwcll, Wh,more and
Walker, and on Friday was brought on.
before an examining Court, who. after a
long hearing, remandcd him TO prison for a
further trial, fixing the amount of bail at
$4,000. The charges against Keys are
similar to those against the other priso-
ners. 1t is supposed that he is guilty Of

There is considerable apprehension
among the citizens Of this place, that the
friends Of the prisoners, botl, here and at a

from prison, as there is no longer room to
doubt that there are scores, if not hundreds
of the ruffians lurking about in the neigh
boring counties, with some common and
deeply felonious purpose.-'These villains
are doubtless connected with an organized
band reaching from the northern States to
remote borders Of Texas. 1t is believed
that 'hey can command large force, at

Tie Sperm Witale.-Mr. Deale gives
some curious and novel notices of the res
plrasion of the sperm whale. Their
breathing, when not alarmed, is extremely
reguar-the full grown males, or "bulls,"
occupying ten minutes thus, with an inter-
val Of seventy or eighty minutes. The
females devote only four minutes to
breathing, with an interval of twenty.
The latter are not above quarter the
size Of the bulls, always swim in schools
Or herds, attended by few males, stay
by each other when wounded, and are
remarkably attached to their young The
males swim in herds only TIL they are
half grown, when they are most difficult
to catch. They have all some wonderful
way OF communicating an alarm to each,
even II the distance Of five or six miles.
In calm weather great difficulty is some
times experienced in approaching the
whale, on account of the quickness of lis
sight and hearing; and such is its power of
motion. that on being struck. he generally
"sounds," or desccnds perpcndicul.rly to
an amazing depth, taking out, perhaps,
the lines belonging to four boats, 500

sell as low as can be purchased at Chicago
or elsewhere, for cash. We are aware
that "puBfng' is now the order Of the

but if you will give us call and examine
our stock, we shall not grumble if you do
