they tisS'.f = bat ucar lie shore, from

way up to the chicken-house, from which he
commenced very indilstriously tearing off the
weather boarding for the purpose Of eftectng
all eillra &C. la the meantime, the party on
watch had slipped to the landing and set his
baat aariit, and having thus cut off his retreat
they made haste to secure him. He made for
bis boat, on being alarmed, but finding that
gone, he yielded TO oyerpowering numbers.
He MAS captured and secured till next morn
ing, when the colore,i men ou the farm yoiun-
teered to intiict chastisement upoA Lin sul1i-
cient to warrant his not again troubling the
premises with his nocturnal thieving visits
The farmer yielded to their entreaties finally,
and they tied the thief up, and on his bare
hide administered the full extent of Moses
law, drawing the claret at every cut.
