WASHINGTON lTEMs-A detective firm in
Baltimore on Thursday night received dis
patch from Washington, stating that young
man named Walker had, on Saturday last
hired from Major 4 Bro, livery stable pro-
prietors OF Washington, horse and buggy
valued at $500, and from the long absence Of
Walker it was supposed that he had disposed
of the team. Yesterday morning the Balti-
more detectives recovered the carriage at a
sales stable, and arrested Walker at Miller 5
Hotel, on Plea street. where the horse was also
recovered.

No little excitement was produced in the city
councils last night by the introduction of a
communication presented in both boards from
John ii. Crane, commissioner Of the fourth

upon the mayor and other officials. The
charges are in connection with grading and

EXTRAORDINARY SELF lMMoIATIoN. The
following statement appears in the London
Pail Mall Gazette:
"All the extraordinary proceedings of the
many fanatical seCts whose rapid increase has
excited so much anxiety IN Russia are fairly
thrown in the shade by II terrible act of selt-im-
notation, which is reported from tho Govern
ment of Saratow. a few months ago the proph-
cts Of new religion made their appearance III
that part of the empire, preaching selt-destruc-
ton by fire as the only sure road to salvation ;
and so readily was their dreadful doctrine re-
ceived by the ignorant and superstitlous peas
antry that in one large village less than
seventeen hundred persons assembled in some
wooden houses and, having barricsded the
doors and windows, set the buildings on fire
and persisted in the flames. The authorities
are doing all they can to stay the progress OF
this new madness, bu. their task is obviously q
difficult one. The punishments which the law
can infot must have little terror for enthusiasts
who deliberately choose death so horrible as
the true road TO heaven
