Horse Stolen.-Mr. Richard Magee, of
Middle Neck, Second Election District of
this county, had a $500 horsed stolen, on
Thursday night last, from his stable. Mr..
Nagee had the horse at Elkton, where he
had been attending Court, for several days
this week, and thinks that the thief fol-
lowed him home and took the horse few
minutes after he had been put in the sta
BILE. The same day, man arrested and
tried for horse stealing, was cleared, as
will be seen by reference to our report of
proceedings Of Court, which would seem
to have emboldened the rascals who ply
that business.

FresbyteU.-At a meeting of the New
Castle Presbytery, last week, tho call Of
Rev. Robert P. Kennedy, of Lexington,
Ky, to Red Clay Creek Church, and of
Rev. Jason Rodgers, of Baltimore, to Pen

New Years Day.-The day was ushered
in Elkton with a sernade by tho Brass
Band, and the streets were made vocal in
the wea small hours, by "Home Sweet
Home" Hail Columbia, : and other pop-
=alar airs. The musicians were tempted
out at this EARLY hour to sernade a bride
and groom, who endeavored to make the
return to town, when all good folks are
supposed to be in bed. After the sernade,
tho donkey band appeared with tho " Horse
fiddle" and Accomplishments, and for 2
while made night hideous, indeed. AS the
day dawnsd, gunpowder lent its potent aid
to the general rejoicing, and at later
hour, egg nogg asserted its sway in some
places. Aside from these usual ceremon-
les in observance Of the day, nothing wSr-
thy of remark occurred, beyond the ordi-
nary hum drum Of Of every day life.

Singular Freak Of Nature.-The wonder.
fully-constructed negro or Moor, who re-
Gently excited the astonishment of the
medical fraternity of Havre de Grace and
Port Deposit, made his appearance in Bel
Air, on Wednesday evening. His make.
up is certainly wonderful, and, as it seems,
inexplicable by medical men. He has the
power of changing the location of the
heart, causing it to drop down from its
place on the left side, then moving it across
his stomach, then up the right side, and
across the chest to its proper place. Next
he caused his bowels to revolve number
of times and then unwound them, as it
were, until they had regained their origi-
nal position. He could suspen at will the
action of his heart, so that not the slight
est pulsation could be detected.
He also bad the power to drop his ribs
and replace them in position, with scarcely
an effort. While performing his feats he
stood erect. and at the close of the exhibit
tion, which lasted for about fifteen minutes.
he broke out into profuse perspiration, as
if he had just come out of the harvest-field.
He shows the scars of operations performed
upon him in Europe by surgeons in search
of knowledge, and one thousand dollars
was paid him, he says, for allowing him
self tG be eEamined in this way, but he
does not seem anxious tG haye such another
searching examination made. Altogether
it is singular case and elicits the atten-
tion of physicians.-Be Air -Eyis.

Donation Visit.-MR. EDIToR:-It may
be agreeable to you and your readers, to be
informed that the Methodist Parsonage, at
North East, was entered and occupied
by a committee of ladies and gentlemen on
the Thursday evening before Christmas
The cheerful mood of the visitors gave suf-
ficient assurance to the Minister and family
that their design was not evil. This was
fully demonstrated by the ample supply of
provisions, which they left as donation
Pleasant greetings were exchanged, when
the Committee withdrew, leaving tho Pas
tor and his family to smile over the spoil.

Finger Bitten.-A fight occurred in
North East, on New Years Day, between
Thos. Taylor and two other men, named
Richard Reynolds and w. Harvey. An
"old grudge" appears to have existed
between the parties, and Reynolds and
Harvey meeting Taylor attacked him.
TAYLOR retreated into B. F. Thomas Hotel,
where he was pursued by his assailants,
and badly beaten. In the fracas one OF
Taylor's fore fingers was bitten SO badly
that at last accounts we had, it was thought
that it would have to be taken of at the
third Joint, symptoms Of modification hav-
ing set in. Taylor was otherwise badly
injured about the body. He is reported
as quiet, decent man, and the attack most
wanton and unprovoked.

would not last. They would ruin Charles
ton by turning its business to Savannah,
and would then find an easy way to cause
the South Carolina Railroad to be sold out,
and the stock and the lease to be extin-
guished:
But Mr.. John q. James did not stop here.
He went on to say that Mr.. Moses Taylor,
Of New York, was worth thirty millions,
and il he we're aroused would buy out the
South Carolina Railroad il he had to pay
par for the stock. We have better opinion
of Mr.. Taylor's sense. But the monstroslty
OF the threat is none the less evident !
Here comes MIR. John q. James to say to
the people Of South Carolina, 'We are rich
"and YOU are poor. Take the crust we throw
"to you, or you shall have nothing at all"
The temper Of this people has wonderfully
changed if these threats have any effect.
We can be led, but We are hard to drive.
Now come back to US the words of Light
Horse Harry Lee, whom the Tories tempted
as Mr. John 81. James and his colleagues
would tempt this people. He said to them,
81 am o poor man; but your King, with
"his millions, is not rich enough to buy
"me!" And this is o fight for homes and
firesides as much as was the war in which
Sumter and Marion fought. The alien and
stranger are upon US. Goths and Eandals
would strip US Of our birthright. Every
consideration OF interest and patriotism, OF
hard cash and public spirit, require this
people to defeat Messrs. Johnston and
James, and their allies Of the Central
Ring.
To-day the fight may be renewed. The
Ring must once more be handsomely re-
pulsed. And, in the meantime, every citi-
zen, according to his means, should put
his money into South Carolina Railroad
stock-to be bought and held for the guard
ing OF our trade, to be 80 held that all the
wealth OF purse-proud millionaires shall not
Lt--
steal it away. What it is worth to them
it is worth to US. II the South Carolina
Railroad is worth seven per cent to the
Central Ring, it is richly worth ten per
cent, and more; to this State and people.

The Rice Duty.
From the New York Tribune,l

We Imported in 1866 no less than 76. 20s, 3s7
pounds of rice, and the first quality sold for
lSS cents per pound. We have imported
less amount in each subsequent year, because
our home product, which was 2o,lls,6oO
pounds in 1866, has risen rapidly and pretty
steadily since, till it amounted, In 1871, to
81, ,OOO, 900 pounds. Meantime the price OF the
first quality has fallen to 9 cents per pound.
Our rice is grown by the seacoast negroes
of South Carolina, Georgia and Louisiana, who
are charged with inveterate idleness and beg
gary. They grow this important crop where
little If anything would be produced If rice
were not. Can't Congress be persuaded to
let them alone?
