SFNsA Trn,5 RErUKr.-Tne story OF q
Baltimore sensation correspondent Of q
Philadelphia paper, is going the rounds
70 effect that Davis has manacles on
both ankles, with a chain connecting
about three feet long that he stoutly
resisted the process of manacling and
threatened vengeance on those who did
it; that rather than submit he wanted
the guards to shoot him that it became
necessary to throw him on his back and
hold him until the irons were clinched
by a son of Vulcan; that he exhibited
intense agitation and scorn, and finally
caved in and wept, etc, etc. The New
York Times says:
The public may properly bs warned
against giving credit to the report of a
Baltimore newsmonger relative to the
treatment of Jeff. Davis at Fortress
Monroe. The story is permitted to cir
culate by telegraph, and we print il to
show what is considered essential food
for the prevailing vicious appetite for
sensations. II the government have
found II necessary to adopt extra pre-
cautions in the case Of the prisoner, we
are satisfied that no Unnecessary harsh
ness has marked the treatment he has
received. And the story in the shape in
which itappears is either an emanAtion
from some rebel sympathzer intended to
create feeling of commisseration for
Davis, or it h9s been Concocted to sup
ply the lack Of truthful Intelligence on
the subject of hat Individuals incarcer-
alton II II censorship is of use at all,
surely this is case wherein it might be
applied with some advantage. The
Memphis negro plot" belongs to the
same category of mendacious sensation
rumors. The tabricators invite summa-
ry and severe punishment.

FIRE.-The alarm of fire, about eight
o'clock Saturday night. was occasioned
by the burning of stable situated in
the alley between John and Zane streets,
East Wheeling. The stable was owned
by Mr.. LETTERS. Notwithstanding the
fact that the firemen We're promptly. on
the spot, the building was totally de-
stroyed The flames spread TO frame

before much damage was done.
@The light from the burning stable was
very brilliant for time. and illumin-

lance around OF late our city has been
visited with so few fires that no sooner
does a fire bell ring than the streets are

FRUIT STEALING.-If it has come to
this that our citizens can no longer be
protected in the enjoyment OF the pro-
ducts of their own vines aud Zig trees,
then may they as well lay waste those
beautiful gardens, vineyards and orch
ards which are the pride and boast of our
citizens, and which contribute so much
to the pleasure of the owners. Far sooner
would we cut up root and branch every
tree and vine, than see the products OF
our toll and care given to the hordes OF
worthless vagabonds of all ages who
prowl about day aud night to plumber
them of fruit This species OF larceny
has been carried quite far enough, and
ought to be stopped 1t can be stopped
if the authorities will make severe work
for those who practice it. Let the police
of the city beinstructed tobring in every
man, woman, boy or girl who is caught
stealing fruit, and then let them have
something lHoit IMAM ou "''h'"'''" ''
the Magistrate. 1t is time that frnlt
stealing was called by its right name, and
fruit thieves received the punishment
they deserve.
These remarks are suggested by hear
ing frequent complaints from those who
have had their fruit stolen this season -
Grapes are now ripening, and not day
passes but gardens in various parts Of the
city and county are robbedby the thieves,
who are nearly "a plenty as grapes. 1t
is a rare thing that due punishment is
administered to fruit thieves. Let one or
two boys be sent to Jail for fruit stealing,
and all the others in the city will begin
to understand that it means business
Or if man is caught send him to the
Penitentiary, and men will understand
that robbing orchards, melon fields and
graperies is no pastime. Unless decided
and severe measures are adopted to put
an end to this kind of larceny, the cult
Walton of fruit in our city and vicinity
must be abandoned.

An EXTENSIVE "SALE Last week
,,mber of the merchants and produce
dealers of St. GAINESVILLE, Ohio, as we'll
as several gentlemen from the rural dis
tricts were victimized by man they
had never seen before and never wish to
gee again. A day or two before the Gov
eminent wagon.train passed through the
place. the stranger rode into town and
reported himself as Chief Commissary OF
the coming brigade" He wanted to
purchase large quantities of potatoes,
corn, hay, sixty barrels of onions, fresh
meats, bread, cheese, coffee, sugar etc.
The good people of st GAINESVILLE, not
having been hardened with gov ern-
ment contracts" during the war, were
naturally pleased to learn that their
town was made the general depot OF
commissary supplies for the time being,
and all were anxious for contract.
One old farmer was awarded contract
for sixty barrels of onions; another NIFTY
bushels of potatoes; several others one
hundred bushels of corn each: the ba-
kers were all given as much bread
TO bake as they could supply; the
rrocers were given contracts for COT
Tee, sugar and cheese, which was to
be put m small bundles, and for
time business was decidedly brisk
in st. Clairsville. Those who had re-
ceiyed contracts" were told tn furnish
the supplies at given. point, and the
bills wo uld be audited or cashed by the
Quartermaster upon the arrival OF the
wagon train. Before the dawn OF day on
the appointed morning. every article or
dered had been hauled to the depot OF
supplies" and the contractors" anxious
IL awaited the arrival of the wagon
train. About noon the mules, negroes
aud wagons made theirappearance. Inc
procession was headed by guide, who
was an elderly gentleman, and of course
he was taken for the "Quartermaster OF
the Brigade" No sooner had he reached
the outskirts of the town before he was
attacked by the contractors, and bills OF
all kinds and large and small amounts
we're presented The "Quartermaster"
informed the contractors" that he en-
ployed no travelling agents, that he had
received ample supplies at Wheeling
and that the "Chicf of Commissary" who
had preceded the train was an imposter'
The surprise and chagrin of the con-
tractors can be better imagined than de
scribed. Their visions of contracts
and speculation quickly vanished, and
with curses both loud and deep, they pro
ceeded to remove the supplies.
