A CUIoUS PRAYER.-The Syracuse IN.
W Star is responsible for the following
In the State of Ohio, there resided a
family consisting of an old man by the
name of Beaver, and his three sons, all Of
whom were hard nuts who had often
laughed to scorn the entreaties of a plouS
though very eccentric minister who resi-
ded in the same town. 1t happened one Of
the boys was bitten by a rattlesnake and
was expected to die, when the minister
was sent for in great haste. On his arrl'
val he found the young man very peniteu'
and anxious to be prayed with. The min
lister, calling on the family, kneeled down
and prayed in this wise:
% Lord, We thank thee for rattlesnakes
we thank thee because q rattlesnake has
bit Jim. We pray thee send a rattlesuake
to bite John; send one to bite Bill send
one to bite Sam !; and O Lord, send the
biggest kind of a rattlesuake to bite the old
man, for nothing but rattlesuakes will ev'
err bring the Beaver family to repentance.

two-twelfths to Harry, and should KEEP

A PRESCRIPTION FOR FoPPERY.-Twen.
ty years ago, a farmers barn in the vicinity

burned to the ground. Many of the citi-

strapped and dickied, with his cap on one

and accosted him in this wise: Gan

have succeeded in extinguishiug the conAa-
grafton Of the-ah, unfortunate yeoman's

attentively, dropped his head as usual for a
moment, and then slipping his thumb and

of pills, and handed them to him, saying {:

At Clio, his house attracted attention by
being darkened at night, and by the ne

THE CLIO DEvELoPMENTs.-T fol.

developments at Clio, in Marlborough Dis
trict, up to Saturday last. The Hitchings
were confued in the Jail for safe keeping,
until further evidence of their guilt or limo
cen.e could be obtained. Parties were
sent to Pekiu to secure papers, if any there
were at that point, whilst an attempt was
made to ascertain what has become of the
arms shipped to them.
By the Saturdays noon train, the last
box shipped reached this place. 1t was
taken to the Bank and opened, and found
to contain $780, IS cents worth. The pre-.
vious shipments have not yet been discov'

but have not been received here. Wheth.
er they we're taken from Florence, or some
other point. has not been ascertained.
The Hitchings are in the custody of the

fairly with them. If they are deemed
guilty, they will be hanged, if innocent,
they will be set at liberty - Meraw Ga

Express Company at Florence, notifying
him that there were goods for him in the
office there; but the express charges are
too small to cover such a consignment as
the invoice would imply. The package or
packages at Florence have been sent for,
and will be brought here tomorrow night.
The only explanation Hitchings offers is,
that he has a son whose occupation is to
escort emigrants from St. Louis, or some
other point in Missouri, across the plains
to Santa Fe, New Mexico, &C., and that
the arms and ammunition were intended
for him. A strange and improbable story,
when it is remembered that if the goods
were here, perhaps, the shortest and most
expeditions route would be to ship them
back, by New York, to St. Louis.
The old man assumes to be as deaf and
as stoical as old John Brown, but his son
shows great concern, and appears to be in
great trepidation.
1t was gratifying to note the cool and
determined purpose of those charged with
the investigation, to act prudently but
firmly in the matter, and not hastily and
without due deliberation. Whatever the
results arrived at may be, justice will be
done, though the law be for a time dethron,
