HORSE SToLEN.-At an early hour on
Saturday morning horse was stolen
from the Second Ward market house
The animal, the property of Mrs. Seals,
had bee unhitched from the buggy and
fastened to the seat. The thief took the
harness from the horse and rode him
away.
Yesterday our officers were on the
lookout and circumstances pointed to
Pat Mahoney, who had been fined in the
morning for drunkenness, as the thief
He was arrested and afterwards the
horse was found in Wiley's pasture, near
Mt. de Chantel. 1t appears that Maho'
ney stole saddle, bride, martingale
and a carriage whip. and then went
round to the market to steal horse
they would fit. He then rode out to
Wileys and telling the people there
that he had bought the animal, OBJ
tanned permission to put him in pasture.
Mahoney was taken before Squire John
ston Yesterday afternoon and hearing
of the case resulted in his being held in
sum of $500 to answer the charge before
the November term of the Circuit Court
In default he went to Jail. He will be
examined on a charge of petit larceny
for stealing the saddle, bride, &C., this
morning.

FARMERS AND GARDENERS ARE LIABLE.
There has been some question as to
the liability of farmers and gardeners,
who regularly attend our markets, to
pay tax as produce buyers. In let,
ter recently addressed to the Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue, United
States Assessor Crothers made the fol-
lowing inquiry:
Are farmers and gardeners who sell
their own productions from wagons or
stalls only, in the city markets, two
days in each week, or only occasionally
liable to special tax or license as produce
brokers
To this inquiry the Commissioner re-
turned the following reply, under date
of Sept. 90, 1869:
A person who makes it his business OF
any part of his business to sell agricul'
tural products, even of his own raising
from a stand or stall, as the terms are
synonymous, is liable to special tax as
produce broker, snless he has paid the
special tax az dealer. Occasional OF
exceptional acts do not render person
liable to special tax, except in enamer'
sted cases; but it is net presumed that
acts done regularly twice in a week are
thought to be exceptional acts An act
done regularly once in a week or month
would be sufficient to fix the liability tc
special tax, as that would constitute il
part of the business of person.

THE YoUNG BUReLARs.-fhe Dogs,
Jimmy Gallagher, ten. years Old anu
William Hopel, aged ten, charged win
burglariously entering William WIN
der's cigar store on Sunday morning,
and stealing therefrom four boxes oil
cigars, lot of pipes, watches ana To-
bacco, were taken before Squire Sohn-
ston yesterday. They say they were
told to rob the store by John Gallagher
brother of Jimmy's. This little 9aA'
laghsr is an arraat thief. He was one
of the party that robbed Hubbard q
Bro, McAfee, Peter French and others
last week. They were committed 10
Jail in default of 500 bail each. Inc
necessity for a House of Refuge for
such boys as these is hourly more ap-
parent. The boys have got an idea tha'
they are too small to 60 to the fenl-
Tertiary, and that therefore there Is no
punishment for them. But something
must be done. The gang, OF which
these boys are members, includes many
more than have yet been discovered
and will eventually draw in Others
Something is needed whereby boys who
are thus led into wrong may be re-
formed before they are inevitably
ruined.

THE TURNER'S FEsTIvAL.-The festi.
val at Turner's Hall last evening was a
decided success. The hall was crowded
with ladies and gentlemen, who express
sed themselves delighted with the per-
Torrance. After an overture by Vaas'
band, splendidly rendered, there was a
tableaux by the Turner's entitled The
Actiyes." In various postures showing
strength were the members of the or
ganization. Here one holding TIVE boys
at arms length, there one holding two
ftty-six pound weights, and the Others
all in graceful and athletic groups
Then came exercises on the single and
double bar, on the trapeze, the rings and
in tumbling, all of which was done in
mastery manner, and eliciIed1ong and
loud applause.
When the curtain rang up, before the
last act on the programme, it discovered
a table on which sat the bust of Hum
bolds, used in the Humboldt Centen'
nary, a watch and two belts with silver
plates. The bust was presented to the
Turner's by Mr.. Rappaport in very
neat speech, which was warmly ap-
plaudeds The watch was presented to
Mr.. Driehorst, for his efforts at the Hum
boldt festival, and the belts, with their
fine silver buckles, to George klinkler
and Charles Kull, the two lads who as
sisted Mr.. Driehorst in his athletic per-
formances.
The last tableau was a splendid one'
1t represented the Turner's IN their
hours of enjoyment. In the background
they were pledging each other IN cup
of friendship. In the foreground one
had gone to sleep over his beer and was
being tickled with a straw in the hands
of a mischievious boy. In the centre a
dog with a music beck before him was
poreing over the notes with the gravity
of an entire mannerckor. 1t was a
glorious picture.
After the gymnastics and tableaux
were ended, the hall was cleared and
light feet are bounding to merry music
in the dizzy dance as we write. 1t was
delightful exhibition and was enjoyed
hugely.

THE TEN DOLLAR NoTE.-Notwith-
standing there are believed to be many
of the new counterfeit ton dollar green
back notes in circulation, the number
discovered does not increase as fast as it
was expected they would. Whether
this is because the manufacturers OF
them are holding up for simultaneous
"shove" when the excitement of the re-
cent discovery has blown over q little,
or whether the execution is so perfect as
to prevent detection, is more than we
can answer. One thing is true-no
clearly distinctive difference between
the genuine and the counterfeit has
been made public yet, that We have
seen. Some few points have been alluded
to, but in practical operations they are
found to be unreliable. The Treasury
Department has also published largely
magnifed photographs of the two notes.
but with the exception that one is the
photograph of new and smooth note
and the other of a worn and rsmplea
bill, they are as alike as two peas.
There is, however, a clear and distinct
difference easily discovered by every one
at all conversant with paper money, be-
tween these same genuine and counter
felt bills, and one too, that the manu-
facturers cannot alter to avoid detec-
ton, even after it is pointed out. 1t Is
in the color of the red ink in which the
numbers on the face of the notes are
printed. In every comparison which we
have instituted or seen instituted, the
counterfeitis detected at once. The red
color on the genuine note is clear ana
bright, the manufacture of the ink, we
are informed, being secret, and made
of expensive material, while the color
Of the number printed on the counter
felt is dull and of brownish shade.
Any one putting the two notes side by
side need not be deceived then or there
after.

was that it would force the water to
take the main channel at the head OF
Wheeling Island, and thus give us a
greater volume of water on the bar
Maybe it will. At present it is forcing
the water to find another outlet by
washing out q portion of Wheeling
Island. A part of the Island as big az
one of our so uares is already gone, and
the chances are that much more of il
will 60. The only good thing we can
see to result from the Back river dam
