HELvT THEFT IN WELIIxeToz.-A gentle.
man of Wellington, LOrain County, inform
cd US on Saturday, of an interesting case of
stealing which had just been brought to
light the night before.
A young man by the namo Of orrin
Belts, clerk in the store Of Baldwin & Co.,
is the person who, of all others in that
village, is the most notorious just now, nor
is his notoriety anything at gil Of the enVi-
able order.
It may be remembered that one Cslkins,
a cashier in that same establishment, was
arrested about two years ago, on suspicion
of stealing from his employers, convicted,
and sent to the penitentiary. Many people
at that time suspected Belts, and to clear
oalkins, charged the former with the deed,
but he was cleared. He confesses low,
however, that he learned to steal at the
time of the trial of Uslkins.
Five or six weeks since, Mr.. Baldwin be-
gan to suspect that money was being taken,
and secretly marked the bills. A few days
ago facts were developed which made 1t
certain that Belts was and had long been
stealing. He was in the habit of remain
ing in the store while the cashier was out
to dinner, and had thus every day an ex-
csIlent opportunity to take little money
on his own account.
He was charged with thieving, and, un-
able to get out of it, owned up to have
stolen 500. Getting scared he thought to
clear himself gby one tremendous leap Of
generosity, and SO paid over to the firm the
nice little sum of s., 500. He could give
no account of the 81, ,sOO-he didn't steal ii
stole only s7OO, but would pay them
81, 500 to get clear.
The firm returned him 1000, and gave
him the privilege of leaving the place. He
intended to leave Wellington on the early
Saturday morning train, taking with him 1
Miss -, of oberlin, to whom he was en-
gagged in marriage, but the friends Of Cal
kins procured the arrest of the thief a
eleven o'clock on Friday night. Mr.. Bstt
was to appear for examination on Saturday
afternoon, the result of which We have no
learned. He will no doubt be bound owe
TO appear at tho next court, under hesv.
: bonds.

thick and heecy clouds, tossed and binOW-

AxTIc1RAI1D RAID on DETEoIT.-Tho Peo-
pie of Detroit are in their turn agitated BY
the fear Of raid. The Detroit Tribune
saws that on Wednesday night last the
greater portion of the city would undoubt-
edly have been laid in ashes, butfor smere
accident. That time had been selected for
a raid into the city, but thanks to good
luck, it was prevented. The particulars Of
the whole affair they refrain from giving to
the public for obvious reasons. Fearing
that the raid might be attempted on Thurs
day night, the Mayor issued 3 proclamation,
and called out Ill the city military cOmPa-
nies, who patrolled the city. The Fire De-
partment was also officially notified to hold
itself in readiness to be called out at mo-
msnt's notice. These precautionary meas
ures were rendered necessary by reliable
