between party Of men under Capt. Brown
and posse under the Deputy United States
Marshal, near Paoli, Lickens county. Five of
Capt. Browns party, the Deputy Marshal, and
two of his assistants, are reported to have been

probably exaggerated. The friends of Capt.
Brown assert that he is not in the Territory.

WORSE THAN LEAP YEAR-The ladies of
Schuyler county, New York. have a way pc

claims upon the hand and heart of Mr. Thos
Watt, called at his store and demanded that
he should either marry her or submit to the
effects of the bullet Mr. W. refused either

hitting a rib, passed around and out doing no

SAGAoITY OF A DoG.-One day during
the recent sleighing, Mr.. Eber Hart, of Brgh-
ton, harnessed a pair of spirited young horses
to sleigh, partially loaded, for the city. The
horses took fright while standing without
driver, and ran away. A large mastiff owned
by Mr.. Hart saw the horses start, and gave
chase, pursuing for half mile before he over
took the runaways. He passed them and by
presenting himself in the track in front of
them, he endeavored to check their speed, but
to no purpose; they actually ran faster for the
barking of the dog. Failing in this, the dog
dropped out of the track, and following behind
he seized the reins, dragging upon the ground,
and did not relax his hold until the team stop
ped. After he had been drawn for some dis
tance, his pull became greater upon one line
than the other, which drew the horses towards
a fence, where they stopped. We are assured
that this was an actual occurrence as stated

The PROPERTY OF KANzAs.-It appears by
the statistics of Gov. Medarys message that
the taxable property Of Kanzas is placed at
$25,000,000. AS four.fifths of the improved
farms are not pre-empted, and of course not
yet taxable, it is evident that the wealth, when
fairly estimated, will bear good proportion to
the population. The claims admitted by the
Commissioner for losses in the late war amount
to S254, ,279 20, of which only ,942 80 are
for public losses.

MURDER REVEALED BY A DREAM-A mi
raculous discovery of horrible murder is re-
lated by Belgian journal of recent date, of
which we make summary:
Two brothers, Jews, set out from Gyek with
view of placing their two daughters at a
boarding school in the town of Grosswardein.
During the night of their absence, the youn-
gest daughter, aged ten, who was left at home,
woke up her mother suddenly during the night,
and crying bitterly, declared that she saw her
father and uncle, and all being murdered. The
mother, for some time, took no notice of the
child's declaration, but, as she persisted, and
would not be pacified, she began to be alarmed
herself and the next morning took the child
before the Mayor of the town. to whom she
declared her dream, stating at the same time
that the murderers were two men living in the
ncghborhood, whom she deliberately pointed
out, and added that the murder was commit
ed at the entrance of the forest on the road to
Gosswardein
The Mayor, after receiving this revelation,
thought it prudent to make inquiry after the
two neighbors indicated by the child, when,
singular enough, they were discoyed to be alb
sent from home. This suspicious circumstance
induced the Mayor to dispatch some officers to
the spot alluded to by the child, who discover
ed the horrible spectacle of five bodies extended
on the ground, which were those of the two
brothers, the two daughters, and the driver of
the vehicle, in which they all took their depart
ure. The corpses appeared to have been set
on fire, so as to destroy their identity, and tie
vehicle was nowhere discovered. This horrible
tragedy led the officers to examine the whole
neighborhood, when they fortunately pounced
upon the neighbors at a fair not far distant, as
they were in the very act of changing some
notes on which spots of blood were visible
On being seized they Immediately confessed
their crime, and on the child's dream being re-
vealed to them, acknowledged the finger of
Providence in their capture. This wonderful
dream on the part of the child, and its fulfill
ment, excited an immense sensation in the
neighborhood.
