& Stolen Horse Recovered.

In the latter part Of last September,
Peter NJ. Correll, livery stable keeper, in
this borough, hired hore and carriage to
a stranger, to go few miles into the
country. 1t turned out that the said
stranger was horse thief and, notwith-
ing the large reward offered by Dir. Cor
rell for the recovery Of the property, moth
ing was ever heard Of it until last We'd
nesday, when circus company made its
appearance in town, and the lost horse was
recognized by several of our citizens, do
ing duty IN one Of the baggage teams
Mr.. G. was Immediately informed of the
fact and at once proceeded to look after
the "Grey." He fully satisfied himself
that the horse in question was the ident-
ical animal hired from him last fall, and
SO informed the proprietor of the circus.
He, in turn, stated that he purchashed
him last spring, from man in Utica,
New York, but if Mr G. could prove that
the horse belonged to him, he should
promptly deliver him up. COrFell did :
this without difficulty and as further
proof proposed to turn the horse loose on
the street, at Whitesell's Hotel, and if he
did not go to his stables he did not want
him. Accordingly the horse was strip
ped of all harness aad turned out, and
strange to say, he not only found his way
to the stables but actually went into his
stall, Notwithstanding it was now occu-
pied by arother horse. All parties were
satisfied that the horse belonged to Cor
rell and the circus left town with one
three horse team, which had been a four

ave have very startling arrival to
chronicle False calves have come to

There arc two kinds. One is stuffed with
hair-the other with saw dust, the latter
Of course, being the cheapest. Yester az
ternoon young lady with tiltinS hoops
and false calves was perambulatins
through the park, when one of the calves
burst Our readers can imagine the res
suit. The poor young lady couli be ira
ced by trail Of saw-dust from Rouses
block to the poSt,ofice. Excuse tear]
Thus the maiden, who entered the park
in form resembling the Venus de Mcdi
els, emerged therefrom in state Of
spindle shanked angularityl Her great
mistake consisted in not getticg hair
caIyes-they being less liable to burst,
and of a more pliable nature. Believe
US, dear ladies, if you will wear the
newfang led Improvements on natures pat
tern, that the hair style is the cheapest
We presume the young lady tainted when
she learned the extent Of her misfortune.
But, as an exchange says, what's the use
of railing at false calyes-they are mere
matter Of form ~
