acid which contaminates the ordinary liquors Of

careful and repeated rectidcation. The juices

When Toby Vance's name was called,
lobe came up with demoralized look
quite comical. Toby had only just babe
adieu to the seclusion and comforts of
the Hotel de Faris, on Fifth street, and
quitting his favorite study of the geo.
logical formation of the earth, had
promised to 60 and keep sober. But
Toby keeps sober as that old lady is
said, in profane history, to have kept
hotel in Indiana. He had been out but
few hours when he was found hanging
to lamp post, not drunk, but as sick a
man as the sun ever shone on. He was
retching and straining as if he were try
ing to spit out his boots. An officer
coming up kindly suggested to him to
run his finger down his throat if he
would get on easier. Toby looked up
with drunken leer and said, "Seehere
mis'ser, who's running this puke, you OF
me-" He was taken back to his old
quarters in default of paying fine of$l
and costs.

as though some one had been plunder-

concealed under the lower berth. He
pitiously begged for mercy, and tried to

gave the alarm, which brought the cap

A QUEER CAsE.-On the tenth of Feb
ruary last show case containing a lot
of pattern bonnets, hats, &C., was stolen
from the front of Mrs. Forces store, No.
l48 Main street. From that time until
last Sunday, though diligent search
was made, no tidings was heard of the
missing goods. On Sunday last Mrs.
Baxter walked into Zane Street NJ. E.
Church with a velvet bonnet on that
was recognized as one of the missing
ones. A warrant was sworn out before
Squire Johnston, and the lady was ar
rested. She proved herself entirely in
nocent in the matter, showing that she
had bought it of Mrs. Coleman. Forth
with Mrs. C. was arrested and she too
was innocent, having purchased it OF
George Wood. George was at once cap
tured and he failed to show to the salts
faction of the court how he acquired
title, so he was committed to Jail in de-
feult of $500 to answer the charge Of
grand larceny before the Circuit Court.
George says that he bought the bonnet,
and he can prove it.

On Saturday two men, named James

rolling mill at steubenville, got into a
DISPUTE as to which was the best pud'
dler when Colston drew knife and cut
McCaffry three times across the aldo
men. INJECTING fearful gashes and sun
dsring the bowels, causing his death IN
a few minutes. 1t seems that there has
been rivalry between the men for over
year as to their respective merits as
workmen, each one claiming to be the
best. Apparently they had made up all
their difficulties, and on Saturday went
ont to take drink together. Inhamed
with liquor the bone of contention again
arose and the dispute ended in the sud-
den death of Mccartney, and in Colston
being confined in the cell of the Jail at
Steubenville as a murderer.

breaking up the garrison and ordering

ANOTHER SENSATION.
Attempted Escape Of COnvicts
from the PenitentiaFy.
They Climb a StOckade
And Make for Tall Timber.
All Eventually Recaptured.

Yesterday morning as the convictl
at the Penitentiary at Moundsvillt
were coming out from breakfast, four o.
them, named Charles Moore, and
Charles Myers, (white,) and Jane:
Starr and Gibbs, (colored,) picked up g
plank and started with it toward the
high stockade OF fence that eHcloses the
prison grounds. Placing the PLANK
against the stockade they clam
bered over and leaped to the ground
The alarm was given as soon as they
started and the guards gave chase, hr'
ing as they ran. As soon as bullet
would come near near fugitive be
would turn and run on different line
evidently to break the aim of the pur'
suers.
Before they had accomplished five
hundred yards they were all retaken
by the guards. Two of them were
taken in the open fields; one on the Ed
wards place, and the other was found
neatly tucked away in a culvert.
They were returned to the prison aud
at once put to work, without other pun
ishment than losing the time credits
heretofore earned by them.
The man Charles Myers, the origina'
tor of the enterprise, is of Swiss BIRTH
and represents Jackson county in the
Penitentiary. He is man of extraor'
binary resources and most dangerous
character. He and Moore are in the
Penitentiary for the attempted murder
and robbery of an old man in Jackson
county. After the attempt and failure
of this enterprise, Moore was captured
Immediately, bat Myers jumped into
the river, although it was in the middle
of December, and swan three miles
through the ice before he was taken.
Since he has been in prison he has
played off invalid, and, it was thought
had consumption. He would spit out
great clots of blood, and completely de-
ceived his keepers, until one day he was
discovered sticking splinters in his nose
to make it bleed, when it was found
that it was in this way he obtained the
blood to spit up.
