horse sense, examined his teeth, and told him
'thc Was lying-that he would never see his
twenty-frst birthday again" The 'syouth''
declared he could prove the statement by his

was not allowed the advantage Of the ssbaby

Tie articles that we're produced at the court
we're heavy pilot-cloth oyercoat, fur-trim-

stolen from the Sherman House; new over
coat, belonging to John E. Maple, 210 South
Water street, valued at $445-stolen from the
Sherman House; an oyercoat, stolen from

Daniels, alias Brown, alias Reynolds, was
committed to Jail in default Of the penal sum

After his trial Lad been concluded, several
parties who had seen the notice Of his arrest
and trial, announced in yesterdays TRIBUNE,
came to the Central Station and the Police
Court Room, and for the first time made
known their losses. some bud had their coats
stolen from the Briggs, others from the Tre-
mont, &c. Had they taken the proper course,
by reporting their losses at the Central Police
Station, at once, the matter might have been
Investigated, and their property recovered,
| which so great delay now renders doubtful,
as the coats may have been re-goId. From
the statements Of the victims, it appears these
coats were taken from the hat-racks, near the
dining-room door, and from places where they
were, for the moment thrown down, in the
sitting OF reading.room. As this thief has
doubtless accomplices in the business, those

themselves Of the security Of their properly,

The Late Change of Base.

We think there can now be but little
doubt that the enemy had seriously Sc
lected Fredericksburg as their point of
advance against Richmond Burnside
came in under pressure and an implied
promise, which held him to quick at
tempt at important results. Halleck,
too. who was bound to vindicate the pol
icy which had degraded Mcclellan, was
equally interested in swift and important
movements and successes. Hence he
visited Burnside's camp and Immediately
the army was put in motion for Freder
icksburg.
Whether Frederick sburg would have
been preferred for the new base or not,
it is the only one from which move
ment to Richmond during the remaining
days of the present campaign was posi-.
BILE. The little time would have been
more than consumed in the Hercuean
and tedious task of Transporting such an
army as Burnside's, with trans AS his, to
the Suffolk base. The bad weather, and
especially the deep roads, would then
have held the army in camp til spring.
If however, the time could be employed
in marching instead OF sailing; and if
Lee thought only of keeping out of the
way, as the enemy has been declaring,
then Fredericksburg was .judiciously Sc.
lected as near point, with a high road
to Richmond.
That Burnside has been seriously baf
fed and his plans deranged, by the fail
ure TO capture Fredericksburg is, we
think, very evident. He is counting his
time by days-and already he has lost al
most a week. Still the Rappahannock
lies uucrossed before him, with Lee,
whom he had hoped to outmarch, upon
its Southern bank The new 'On to
Richmond" has been brought to a stand.
We should not wonder if already Burn
side has ended his race, and will be dis
placed for new man, who as the only
move he can make. will take TO water.-I
In that case, we trust our soldiers will be
in place to amuse his rear and salute his
departure.
Meanwhile, all hail noble Fredericks-
Eng. NOv. 26h.

Pressing Salt.

Dame Rumor says that three barrels of
what Is called rock salt" the property
of Elijah Cate Mouse Creek, WAS forcibly
taken from his possession a few days ago,
and thirty dollars in Confederate curren-
cy deposited in lieu thereof, The trans
acticn is reported to have created inn
'nnense excitement, not only throughout
the length aud breadth of the enterpris-
ing village where it occurred. but in all the
surrounding country, and, if not over
shadowed by some outrage Of still great
er magnitude, vet unperpetrated, it will
no doubt occupy prominent leaf in The
history of this saneuinary period. We
learn that detachment of military, un-
der the command OF our Young friend,
REDFIELD, formerly of the Sequatchie
Herald" was sent in pursuit Of the gull
" offenders. whowcre captured and taken
before the proper authority, but SUISSE
1uently discharged with the gracious and
christian.like reprimand TO ''go and sin
no more" Though an humble member
of the "press-gang" for thirty-eight years,
we are decidedly opposed to pressing"
of tbe character alluded to. Possibly that
salt" cost its worthy owner not less than
eighty cents per barrel, and to seize and
carry it off at the small advance of nine
dollars and twenty cents, was not only
gross infringement of his private rights,
but doing great violence to the spirit
Of The times"
