A FFeSted.

We learn from the Charestown correspon-
dent of the Baltimore Sun, of the oath inst,
that James Lynch, alias William J. Stabough,
(the same man whom some of our citizens at
tempted TO ride on a rail a few weeks since }
supposed to be one of the insurgents, was
brought in prisoner to-day and lodged in Jail
lie was captured some days ago by Mr. NJ. f.
Price, the U. S. Mail agent on the Baltimore
s. Ohio railroad cars, at a place called Sir
Johns Run, and kept in Romney jail till to-
day. He is quite understood, Of simple and
foolish appearance and had been for several
weeks lettering about this and the adjoining
counties, begging and borrowing money. lie
registered himself here some days ago, before
the outbreak, as Jarces Lynch, Cincinnati,
Ohio, but at the time OF his arrest, gave the
name of William ]. Stabough, of Louisa
Lawrence Co., Kentucky. On Friday night
the l4h inst, he called Mr.. Barbour the SUI
periatendent Of the ArILory, at Harper's Fer
ry, out Of his house, insisting upon a private
interview on the lawn, which was refused
Then ne asked the loan of dollar and then
left. Since his arrest, he has said, if Barbour
had granted him an interview, he would have
revealed the whole plot. Both at Harper's
Ferry and here, an excited crowd followed
the prisoner, as he passed, manaced through the
streets, in the charge 'of officers. HIS COM
mtment on suspicion of aiding and abetting
John Brown s. Co., was issued by Justice Eli
chelberger.

hardly apprecase the improvements hich have
taken place in the mode of teaching that much
neglected Art-reading. In the great strife for
precedence among school k-publishers, there
are no doubt many unworthy things done and
said for the purpose of pushing into the market
books which have no especial meri to re con
mend them but this cannot be said of the Ma
tional Series of Readers, compiled by Parker 81
Watson and published by A. S. Barns IL Burr,
We have examined the series, and believe that
the progress from the lower to the higher
readers of this series, there is gradual develop
ment Of the difficulties Of learning to read
which we have not seen in any other SERIES

Readers, are from the best writers in the Ian
guagc, and comprise string of pearls rarely tC
