CATTLE STOLEN.

Early on Saturday morning last. John W.
Waddell, Esq. of Lexington, missed some
fourteen head OF cattle from his place, and
from Indications he believed taem to have
been stolen. lie Started men out on differ
ent roads in search, while he came to town.
On inquiry. it was learned that cattle an
,weriug the description had been shipped
on the Pacific railroad at daylight that morn
ing, and Mr.. Wadiell telegrxphed to
Sedalia to have them overhauled. In a short
time he received the following reply
SEpALIA, August 14th, 1872.
j. W. WADDELL; Lexington: Have the
cattle answering description. Will ship
them to you this evening. Shipped by j.
b.; consigned to .Ashbrook. st. Louis.
WIZ. INCH, Marshal.
When this dispatch was received. par
ties were despatched to the North Missouri
Junction to look olt for J. Burke. who had
left town thai morning too late, Ii was
believed, for the morning train. After
waiting for severai hours, Burke male his
appearance rs the Eastern bound train came
in, when the officers arrested him and
brought him here, where he is now lodged
in Jail.
Another individual, supicioned of compile
ity in the affair. left town in great haste on
Saturday for Sedalia.
The promptness and energy displayed by
Mr.. Waddell in this affair, not only has
saved him from considerable pecuniary loss,
but is worthy of great commentator for
the lesson it reads, to the thieving scoun-
.Irrl. who have infested our community dur
Ing the past summer.

Formidable showing. But we took pains to
consult the registration books in the county

lowing the entire negro vote to the Radicals
would not give them more than 400 at the
outside. In 1858. however, it Is to be re-
'membered the Germans went Solid for Grant.
