ARREST OF Col. MosBY We learn that
Col. John 5. Mosby arrested, at his home
in Fauquier, few days since, by military au-
thori,y, aid taken to Washing ,on and impris-
oued. He is charged, we understand, with
having hanged two Federal soldiers in the Val
ley, during the war, in retaliation for the muir
der of some of his meu.
When remember that Colonel Mosby
though Of that class known as Partzan Rang
ers, was a regularly commissioned officer In the
service of the Confederate States, and, as such.
received the parole awarded the other officers OF
General Lees army, his arrest seems most ex-
trao,dinary, and fatty in violation of the terms
| of parole.
For some months Colonel Mosby has been
| quietly practicing Law in Warrenton, demeanine
himself as good and loyal citizen of bis section

SOMETHING New IN PROFESSIONAL CRIME.-A
Cincinnati paper says that lad employed in a
drinking saloon in that city was engaged in sweep
ing, when a stranger, holding in bis hand bot
tie full of some kind of liquid. entered and stood
few moments by the stove warming himself
He was young man, rather.poorly clad, but of
passable manner aud address. Having warmed
his hands and feet he walked up to the bar, where
the lad, who was alone, was engaged in placing
the decanters and glasses in order. Uncorking
the bottle he handed it over to the boy and re-
quested him to smell Oft and pass judgement
upon it as good quality of gin, something new
entirely. The lad applied it to his nose, and with
energy several times inhaled the liquid. Failing
to detect any odor like that of GIN he handed the
bottle back with statement to that effect. But
as he did this he began to experience dull feel
ing Of drowsiness, an Undesirable idea of nonen-
tity He, however, retained sense enough,
though reeling like Intoxicated, to detect the
stranger in an attempt to rob the till, and fought
with him with what strength he had left for the
possession OF the money in the drawer. Fortu-
nateIy gentleman happened to enter, when the
thief made his escape, just as the boy fell insens-

THE BOY AND THE PANTHER.
a WILD WESTERN SCENE.

IL WAS 81 me IiOillIilS III august
when little Samuel Eaton, about
seven years old, was making a dam
in the brook that run before his
fathers door. He was an only and
beautiful child, and his mother idol
lied him. There he was, with his
trowsers tucked up above his knees,
working like a beaver, his mothers
eyes cleaning out from beneath his
sunburnt hair, and with some Of his
fathers strength, tugging a large
stone in the bed Of the stream.
" Samuel you had better come
in, hadn't you - said Hannah, in
tone of half mother and half mate.
No." said Samuel.
An acorn came floating down the
stream. The boy took it up, looked
at it, was pleased and - reckoned
III his mind there was plenty more
in the {" "gully,'' and when his
mothers back was turned, off he
started for acorns.
The gorge Of the mount into
which he was about to enter, had
been formed (the work of many cen
turies) by the attrition Of the stream
he had just been playing in; and
walking on the level that bordered
each side Of the water, he boldly
entered the ravine. An almost per-
pendicular wall or band ascended on
each side to the height Of one hun
dred feet, composed Of rocks and
crags, fretted by decay and storm
into fantastic shapes and positions,
a few scattered bushes and trees
sought nourishment from the earth
that had fallen from the level above,
and accepting their substance and
the unseen surface Of the rock, this
natural fort seemed inaccessible but
to bird and beast. About an eighth
Of mile from the entrance a cata-
ract closed the gorge, throwing up
its white veil Of mist in seeming
guardianship Of the spirit Of waters.
The verdant boughs hanging over
the bank cast a deep gloom over
the bed below, while so lofty was
the distance, they seemed to grow
up to the sky. Blue patches OF
water were seen deepening between
them.

hope that he would return at the

Gathering courage, she hastily
summoned the family around her,
