seems to be tho arena of rogues at pres
ent. We learn that the fatteniug hogs
have been released from several pens and
driven off, but by timely effort recovered.
An attempt was made on Friday night of
last week to drive off flock of sheep from
the premises Of Howard Meeks, but the
thieves were met by scrvant of the fam
lily and frightened OFF Several cattle
have been butcbered in the night. L.
Mckee lost a quarter Of beef and four
dressed hogs on Sunday night while DIR.
Fishers house was on fire. A vigilance

The lible case of Sewell Hepbron VS.. r.
I. Turner, both of Kent county, founded
upon letter written by the defendant to
Governor Swami, and charging the plain
tiff with kidnapping or abducting a colored
child from its parents some time in 1866,
which was removed to Dorchester county
ut the instance of the defendant, from the
Circuit Court for Kent county, was COM
menced last Thursday, and occupied the
court until this Wednesday, morning,
when the jury brought in verdict for the
plaintiff, and assessed the damages at
$1,000. The case was ably argued for
the plaintiff by Charles f. Goldsborough,
Esq. and Hon. j. W, Crisfeld, who oc-
cupied over two hours. and for the defen-
dant. by Col. Jas. Wallace, John NJ. Will
hanson and Hon. D. NJ Henry, who spoke
for four hours. The trial created great
interest, and the arguments of council
were listened to with deep attention.
