Certain newspaper subscribers In Oakland,
CAL, have suffered for moro than month
past from the mysterious disappearance OF
their morning journals, and the raids became
so regular, general, and successful that POSI-
tive action In the matter became necessity,
A meeting Of the residents In the locality was
held, and II was agreed to employ watch
man to arrest the thief. Day after day passed,
the papers still disappeared, and the thief
remained undiscovered. The Waterman
claimed that the carrier failed to leave his
papers ut the doors Of his subscribers. The
movements Of the carrier were then closely
Swallowed, but This only resulted In proving
that the papers were delivered regularly. The
idea Of being thwartcd In tho attempt TO cap
tur" the author Of the mischief added TO the
fury Of the subscribers. They finally decided
to watch and wait themselves, and II was ac-
cordngly agreed that guard, armed with
Remington rifle, should be appointed for duty
each morning. After many tedious hours OF
Investigation and anxiety, early on Tuesday
morning King Charles spaniel was observed

cherished papers. This action was repeated

before the guards followed thoir vi tim TO his
place Of refuge. Near the foot Of Washing
ion street, behind large pile Of rubbish, was
found the receptacle sought for. IL was here
that the dog was seen TO plant his journals.
The earth around the pile was subsequently
turned up, and revealed fully one hundred OF
| the stolen papers. Profound astonishmcnt
prevailed. "Toby"-aftcrwar ascertalned "a

The accounts which are received here from the

dams have determined to have revenge for Mac
Kenzics raid into Mexico. They have been
more bold during the present moon than for
years past. They have carried on 9 large num-
Der OF horses and killed great many more, as
well as a great many valuable cattle.
Accounts arc daily received Of the death OF
men, women and children, slain by these red
devils, who are harbored In Mexico, and, no
doubt, encouraged BY the Mexican Government
TO come across this side Of the Rio Grande, for
the purpose Of murder and robbery. Very soon
the frontier settlers will abandon their homes
and San Antonio viii become the frontier, II
things go on as they have been doing lately.
within the last ten days Indians have been

A Fashionable Wedding.

The marriage OF Robt. Cornell, Of Georgetown,
d. c., and Miss Sarah NJ. Gibbs, Of Baltimore,
Nd, was celebrated on Tuesday afternoon, at D
O'Clock, at st. Francis Xavier church, Baltimore
city, Md. The bride as well as the bridesmaid,
who was the sister of the bride, were dressed In
travelling suits OF sage green silk. At the APP
pointed hour the wedding party entered the
church, and the ceremony usually attending
such occasions was performed by Father James
Y. Gore In very impressive manner. The adj
vice to the couple was about as appropriate as
could be impaired. After the conclusion OF the
ceremony the friends OF the bride and groom
congratulated them. There were present at the
wedding a large number OF friends OF Baltimore
as well as from Washington. Conspicuous among
the party were WIN. II. smith, esq, A. Thomas,
Mrs. Cornell and VIM. Cornell, the mother and
brother OF the groom, and John Z. Clark, esq.
The party left the church and proceeded to the
depot, where they took the $40 train for WASH
ington. On their arrival at Washington they
proceeded to the residence OF Mr.. John E. CLARK,
brother-in-aw Of the groom, where they found q
large number OF personal friends waiting to re-
ceve them. After receiving the congratulations
OF the friends, who remained until late hour,
the company dispersed and the happy couple
retired.
After midnight the bride and groom were
aroused by the sweet music from the Philhar-
monte band, who played sweet and appropriate
pieces. The parlOrs were again thrown open
and the band entered. After several toasts to
the health Of the bride and groom the party dis

lege, Annapolis, Nd, one Of the time-honored
institutions OF our neighboring State. took place
yesterday. and was largely attended by the elf,
OF the ancient town and by citizens OF Baltimore
and several Of the counties. st. Johns has q
widespread reputation as the Alma Mater OF

Changes.
Rev. Father Corrigan, who was sent some
years since from Baltimore TO the American
College at Rome, and r, Gently ordained there to
the priesthood, has been appointed temporary
assistant to Rev. Father Walter, of St. Patricks
church, to supply the place Of Rev. Father Kane
until the return Of the latter from Europe in No.
yember next. Father Corrigan Is now travelling
In Germany, and Is expected here In the latter
part Of August.
Upon the return Of Father Kane he viii re-
sumo his duties as assistant pastor OF st. Pat
ricks church, so that there Is no truth In the re-
port that he will be transferred to St. Peters
church, In place OF Father Boyle, who will re-
main In charge OF that congregation, at least for
the present. Father Boyle Is now sojourning at
Cape May, and will probably return by the close
OF the week, so that he Is neither on his way TO
Rome, nor has he any Idea OF going to the Eter-
nal City Just now.
Whatever changes, II any, may be contem-
plated among the clergy OF the Archdiocese OF
Baltimore will not be made until after the gen.
eral retreat Of the priests, to be held at the
Seminary OF St. Sulpice, In Baltimore In the last
week OF August.
