CVicf ia Consequence" II
Htyh LjrjRG.
THEFT. rroAMy Axp sNreetiva

The following story l. told hy the
Newport Express:
\ gay young man came to sudden
grief at Derby Line last Friday. The
facts in the case, as far as we have been
able t. ascertain them, arc these; some
weeks since a young man named Stick
ncv stole 5000 from an uncle ia Boston,
and by driving his own team, managed
to cludc the officials, and i'm due time
reached Canada. He has since been
boarding at Russcll's Hotel, Stanstcad,
buying fancy horses, living high, and
passing by the name of ClYrk. Not
withStanding he left Il wife and two
children in Massachusetts, about n fort
night since he tclographcd a lady in
Boston to come up 10 Canada and JON
her fortune with his, having evidently
represented to her before he left The
city that his other vile didn't suit him,
and that he had procured Il divorce from
her. She accordingly came, and on the
day following her arrival they went to
Derby Line and were married. BY
some means The uncle came in possess
ion of the telegram, thus learning the
whereabouts OF the parties, and imm =
diatcly came w TO look after his duti-
full nephew. Officers c. w. Smith of
Barton, and w. IL. Rand Of Newport,
on Friday last went to Stanstead and
with the aid Of some friends, dCcoYcd
the young man over on to the south side
of fOrty.frc and at once arrested him.
rhon The uncle appeared upon the scene,
and though he knew hls nephew ought
10 he punished severely, he was so anX-
ious to recover his moncy-which was
the greater part of his whole property
he consented to release the young man
upon surrender Of the property. Stick
ney accordingly gave up everything,
about 5000 in gold, five good horses, a
new suit ofclothcs, &C., in all am uniting
10 al out 5000 The old gentleman
then returned to Boston, $1,000 and eX-
penscs out, and tie nephew, pcnnilCss
and humble, went back to Stanstcad to
comfort his second wife, convinced, we
doubt not, that the way of the trans
giessCr Is uncertain and little hard.
p. S.-Wc learn that the old gentle
man has hid fur1hcr trouble. by having
the horses which his nephew gave up
to him seized by the customs officers for
entry ut undel-valuation. Amc ngst
them all the old man is quite likely to
have but little left in the end.
