Stop the Thief.

Some four months ago d scamp calling him. se!f white man, who gave his name as Samuel l.. PoSton-but it's doubtful whether that was his real name or not--he said his father lived in or near Memphis, Tenn. lie located about here, too lazy to work, and got ill debt wherever he could and on last Friday he borrowed horse, saddle and hrdle from negro man, and bnr- rowed double case silver watch from Mir John Ellis. Not content with this, he stole from Mr Ellis pair of new fine boots, and three fine shirts from Mr. Fink; he then went to the room of Mr. C. E. Gooding and stole a five shooting pistol, and then made off, He was seen on Saturday morning near Red river. he crossed at Colbert's or Kemp's ferry. ltis supposed he went to Sherman, as he said he had friends there from whom he could borrow money to carry him to Memphis. He said he worked some time at Little Rock; no doubt he learned his trade there, with a ball and chain attached to him.
 lie Is brick mason by trade, and uses the trowel in his left hand, and looks like a sheep thief, can't look man in the eye; if looked at he drops his eyes immediately. He is apt to try to be antic, immitating negroes, etc. He is about feet, eight inches high, grey eyes, sandy hair, a little freckled in the face. He is about P years old, and the biggest liar now living, when he's about all other liars must take in their signs He also said he killed Judge Browns son, in Memphis.

 "What do you think I've heard this morn- ing, ColonelH' said she to him on one occasion. "They say Pm your daughter"
 "Well," said he, we don't care for that do we?''
 Not bit" was her reply. "But they say something else, Colonel" she continued; they say was your mistress.n
 Do they" said he; don't think we care much for that either, do we?n
 "They may say what they choose" replied the gallant soldiers daughter.
 But" said he taking her hand in both his and lifting it to his lips, his hand shaking with paralysis "l'll tell you something they might say that would be true. Let them say this of you: She gave the old man home ,oAen nobody else soould." lie uttered these words with an emphasis so tender and penetrating that two of his relatives who were present, one member of the bar, and the other judge, could not refrain from tears.

tIF The following characteristic anecdote which is good enough to be true, we find among the correspondence of Boston paper:
 In conclusion, must tell you ar anecdote and as 1t particularly concerns the spiritual welfare of your old friend Major Eastman, you will read it with interest. Not more than fouryears ago Andrew ohnson, (popuarl y called "Andy") now Tn the U. $. senate, was the democratic candidate for governor of Tennessee against Gentry, " American" Parson Brownlow. the notorious fighting Methodist" of the Knox vile Whg, had gone over with the remains of the whig party to the know nothiugs, and was the warm partisan of Gentry. Eastman, as the conductor of the leading democratic jourua, was, ot course with Johnson, and, as is his wont, gave the enemy vigorous and telling blows Gentry was defeated, but in honor of his " brave associates, partners of his toil,'' he celebrated the event by grand supper, at which Brownlow was present. When the company had got pretty deeply into their cups, and were growing rather boisterous, the parson (who happens to be teetotaIler) thought he had better retire, and was making movement to that effect, when he was stopped by Gentry with the observation that :" No minister of the Gospel should come into hls house and enjoy his hospitality and go off without praying in the family" Brownlow felt the rebuke and at once set about his duty He read chapter in the Bible sung hymn. and commenced prayer. He prayed for G Gen- try and his household and friends; for the we!- fare of Tennessee, of the national confederacy, the American eagle, and the star spangled ban ner; for Christendum and heathendom; for the universe and the rest of mankind" "And f. naliy," said the parson, we pray thee, o Lord if it be possible in the plenitude of thy infinite mercy, to pordon and save Andy Johnson and E. C. Eastman Stop. stop!' exclaimed Gen try, don't let him do that--it gould exlaus ute DIIll of s0iUdfiOlr'

A Heroic Maiden.

A few days ago slide occurred at cut on the Plttsburg and Connesville railroad, at point on the Youghiogheny, above and oppo- site to M'Keesport, where there is curve in the river, and the track is laid wholly on the cutting. A large rock fell and remained direct ly on the track. This was observed by daughter of Mir. John Drave who resides on the opposite side of the river. The male DOT ton of the family were absent at the time; and she, knowing that it was about the hour when the cars would pass that point, and that there was no time to be lost, ran to the river side, un- loosed her fathers skiff rowed across with all possible haste and ran along the track in the d- rechon of the approaching train, waving red handkerchief and succeeded in attracting the attention of the engineer, in the very nick of tme The brakes were applied, the train stop- pea and the danger pointed out. It was the opinion of the officers on board that nothing but the timely warning given by Miss Drave saved the lives of all board the cars. The curve in the road is so sharp that collision would have thrown the cars off the track down the embaukment into the river The c6mpa- ny have shown a proper appreciation of the heroic conduct of the young lady and the in- valuable service rendered.. by presenting her with pass over the road for many years to come, and ordered the train to stop at that point where she can most readily reach her residence whenever she happened to De on board the cars "a compliment and convenience at the same tme as it is a considerable distance from her fathers house to the nearest station.

Burr and Vanderlvn

THE BLOOD OF ALL THE MoNTRosEs.-A scene occurred in the diuing-room of the house while he lay helpless, which may as we'll be related here. A gentleman called to engage board, found suitable rooms, and said he would call Tn the afternoon to say whether he would take them. He came to dinner. Addressing himself in an embarrassed hesitating manner to the landlady, he said he had just heard of a circumstance that would deprive him of the pleasure he had anticipated in residing under her roof. He understood that Aaron Burr was a boarder in the house, and he really coad not live in the same house with man of that char acter
 The blood of all the Montroses was up in a moment. She rose from her chair, and said. with flashing eye and subdued intensity of tone:
 "You have been misinormed, sir, Col. Burr is not a boarder in this house. He is my guest, sir, my honored guest Before any boarder in this house Is served, Col. Burr is served'
 Then, turning to servant, who was waiting at the table, she said, in the manner of Napo- leon ordering column to the attack:

nv pop eunDn

BY BOB SHORT. How pleasant the scenes of my child-h hood. Those scenes that are now long ago; When rowing among the green wildwood, They called me young Rosin the Bow But now that these scenes have all vanished, Lies cares shall not me overflow; For many of these have vanished, Because I am Resin the Bow. And now that my head has grown frosty, Life's current flows ianguid and slow; Yet am not peevish and crusty,
 For 1 am old Resin the Bow. My Nannie's my hearts dearest treasure, Her smiles can soon vanish my wo; My children and friends give me pleasure, They all love old Resin the Bow. Wife, children and friends are blessing, That none but God can bestow; Without them, to live were distressing, 'Twould puzzle old Resin the Bow. These wrinkles were not made by sorrow, Old age blows deep furrows you know; Then hopeful wait for the morrow, For still am Rosn the Bow But when my life's race I have ended, And death shall have laid me full low; Your smiles ard your tears will be blended, You'll sigh for old Resin the Bow.

BURSTING OF GRINDsroSE-MAS KrLLEr

BURSTING OF A GRINDsToNE-MAN KILLED. Friday afternoon. about two o'clock, John Birch an Englishman, about 45 years of age, was instantly killed by the bursting or breaking of large grindstone, in the establishment of Messrs. Brown & Tetley, Wood street. He was engaged in grinding files at the time of the ac- cident. Although warnel not to do so, Birch put on an extra pulley, in order to increase the velocity of the stone, which is driven by steam. The stone was very large one, and the n- creased speed, as is stated, caused it to burst into four pieces. Birch was thrown from his seat, his forehead cut open, his nose split, and one of his eyes knocked out.-P Pitts5urg Dis pQtAh
