HORSE REoovERBD.-Theh horse stolen
from Mr.. Bacon Yates, on Tuesday evening,
10Th of July, and for which bills were printed
at this Office soma two week ago, has been
recovered, and the thief arrested. His name
is John Appel, and this it seems is not his
frat offence in appropeiating the horses of
other people During the war he was in the
Federal army, aud in 1865. after his discharge
from service, hired horse from Mr.. Miller
in Shepherdstown, which he drove of, and
sold in Pennsylvania or Maryland. Returning
to West Virginia, he was arrested and lodged
in the Martinsburg Jail, but Before his trial,
as we'll as we recollect, managed to make his
escape. His last exploit has, We trust, placed
him in position to secure his just reward =
if justice can be melted to such an unmitigated
scamp He was arrested, with the horse Of
Mr.. Y. in possession, at Drafnesville, and is
now, we learn, in the Fairfat county Jail
we presume the Governor of this State will
make requisition on the authorities of Viz
gnia for his person, aud that he will be re-
turned to this county for trial.

the medal for the heaviest yield Of Early
Rose" potatoes. He planted two pounds, and
the produtt is one hWH9rcd aud Sirty fire
pounds Of beautiful potatoes. This is ahead
of anything that has been reported to US, and
more firmly establishes the reputation of the
Early Rose as prolific bearer. In this con-
nection, we deem it proper to give the cx>
po7ience OF the editor OF the Hagerstown

thought pretty good increase, especially as
the potatoes were of splendid size. Those we
planted we're presented us by Mr.. NED DUKE,
of the firm of McCuRDY & DUKE, Charles

ought to have a great demand for the early
