How SHE LOOKS, Erc.-The New
York Sun gives us the following ac-
count of the personal appearance and
character of Mrs. Laura Fair, now. con-
vlcted at San Francisco orkilling Judge
n. Il. Crittenden
Mrs. Fair is said to be one of the most
fascinating women that ever destroyed
the peace of family. She is above the
ordinary height of women, symmetrical
in form, graceful in carriage, and infat-
uating in manners and magnetism Her
hair is dark chestnut, her eyes dark
brown, and her complexion as clear as
that of a child of three years Her
hands and feet are small and elegantly
moulded. With the exception of her
liaSon with Crittenden, she was always
wary and cunning, and the terror of
married women wherever she went 1t
was evident that, although she never
did anything that could call for rebuke
she was a smouldering volcano, and not
averse to warm Irritation. Men throng-
ed around her wherever she went, and
women hated her with inexprcssible
virulence. She had the entree to the
best society in kentucky and New Or
leans. She is not a thoroughbred. but
is vivaciouS, sprightly and magnetic
and when she entered a saloon or a ball
room, the gentlemen would desert other
ladies to gather her and compete for her
smiles end recognition. She had ma
MIA for stock speculations, and an i'm
mense Gift for Turing bankers and mcr-
chants into her schemes. Her temper
is exceedingly violent, and she has been
known to break the head of a servant
with q chair She is fond Of cham
payne, and sometimes takes too much
of it at dinner In short, she is beau
titul, hcartlcsS, fearless, terrible tigresS,
who loves and hates like wild beast,
and is always ready to murder anybody
who crosses her passions.

EscApEp.-Lucien Beard, the leader
of band of horse thieves, who was
captured last fall, near Richmond, had
his trial lately, and was sentenced to the
peniteniary for IS years. He was TEN
porarily confined in the Jail at Rich
mond previous to his incarceration IN
the penitentiary, from whence in com
panv with two others, he made his es-
cape and is now at large. Since his es-
cape he wrote the following letter to
the Richmond Enquirer:
CHARLOTTESVILLE, May the I'd, 1871.
Editors of Enquirer
Gentlemen | read in an issue OF
your paper a few days ago very 70
mantle account of my escape from your
city iail, indeed | felt quite fattered by
Your article. 1t seems to place me
alongside such men as Jack Sheppard,
&c, but my pride was momentalliy
reused, for in the Same paper saw
Gov Walkers Proclamation offering
but pitiful 500 reward Tor my arrest,
&c. Now is not this too bad, that
amount for No. l Jail Breaker. Tell
the Gov. he must make it 1000 at least,
and that is too small. Those two dis
tineuishcd gentlemen who left with me,
| parted from at the Custom House
steps after giving them few dollars
and some wholesome advice, which l
trust they will profit by, | bid them
adieu. | staid in the city q day or so,
and then cameup to Gordonsville on
the train, and from there to the Buck
Island country in Albenarlc, from
thence visited Charlottesville en- route
for South. west. crn Va. | shall mail
this from Charlottesville | will ifagroe-
able to YOU, give you at some future
time a short sketch of my eyenttul llte,
