B@ HoRsE SroLEN.-The Martins
burg ,Siafe,mnn says, "On last Thurs
day evening, Mr. Strayer Poisal, of this
place, while riding along the road lead
ing to Shepherdstown, came up with
two men riding one horse. AS soon as
they saw Mr. P. approaching, they
jumped from the animal and ran. When
Mr.. p, CAME up to the horse he found
it dripping with perspiration, and at
once concluded that he had been stolen,
He fired q shot at the retreating scoun-
drels, and brought the horse back to
the city and had him placed in the Ev-
erett House stable. We have since
learned that the horse wa. ridden here
by Mr.. Morrison, from whom it got
away, and is owned by Capt. Jas, w.
Glenn, of Jefferson County"

~HoRsE THIEF Arrested few
weeks ago, as we learn from our Mary
land exchanges, Jonathan Speelman' OF
Williamsport, had valuable horse sto-
len from his stable in that place. OH
GERS were placed upon the track of the
thief. AID he was traced to the neigh
borlrooi of McConnellsburg, Pa, where
the horse was found, but the thief had
escaped. A few days ago, man an
swering the description Of the one who
had stolen Mr.. Specimens horse was
seen lurking about the barn of a Mr..
Delliuoer. a few miles below Williams
port His conduct excited suspicion,
and officer Wolf, Of Wiliamsport, was
notified, and at once took out war
rant and started in pursuit. The man
was arrested Oil the tow path at Dam
No. 4, and taken back to Williamsport,
where he acknowledged the theft of Mr.
Speelman's horse, but was reserved and
silent as to his OBJ ect in returning. He
was recognized by some boatmen, who
saw him pass through the canal tunnel
sometime ago, riding fine horse. 1t Is
believed that he is one of gang OF
horse thieves, and that Ire carried the
animal to where 1T was found, expec-
ting accomplices to come after 1t while
he returned for more such property.
lie is now in the Hagerstown Jail.

s@CHARLEsrowN RoAD.-In travel
ling to Charlestown the first of the
week we were agreeably surprised in
noticing the improved condition of
that road. 1t has recently been repaired
by the different road supervisors, and
it is now a pleasure to ride over the
road instead of a burthen as was the
case during number of years past.
We believe it is in a better condition
now than it has ever been since it was
road, and We congratulate the road
supervisors (Messrs. VIM B. Daniels,
John Cook, and others) upon their
good work.

g9- To Our SuBscRlBERs.-On the
first of January, 1875, the new postage
law goes into effect, which requires us
to prepay the postage on papers sent
through the mails beyond the limits Of
the county This renders it necessary
for us to require prepayment of sub
scription on all papers sent outside of
this County, from the fact that we can
not afford TO prepay the postage and
wait for years for the amount of sub
scliptiou to be paid, and in some cases
never receive the amount due us at all.
We will prepay the postage on advance
paying subscriptions, without additional
charge. We give this timely notice SO
that subscribers at distance who wish
to continue, may settle up their back
dues and prepay for the ensuing year.

I.,r BELLE BoYD "A "BELLE BoYD
GIVES ATLANTA SENSATIONAL lady
calling herself Belle Boyd has been
lecturing through the country, and is
now ia Atlanta, where she has afforded
a sensation. The editor of the Atlanta
N.ws published, on Sunday last, a para
Graph denouncing the lady as an impos-
ter. Belle Boyd, he claims, ended her
stormy career m California Lunatlc
ASYLUM, two years ago. The article
continues
.The editor of this paper was person
ally acquainted with Belle Boyd, and
Yesterday he called upon the lady claim
ing to be her, and found her to be an en-
tirely different person. Belle was tall
woman. with blue eyes and light hair,
while the lady in question is short, with
black hair and dark eyes, and, ungal-
lantlv as it may seem, we are forced to
say that she must be at least fifteen
wears older than Belle Boyd would have
been had she been living.
Atlanta is never happy without a SEN
sation, and bright and early on Monday
morning the citizens gathered in knobs
on the street corners confidently expect
ing the lady to either horsewhip or
shoot the ungallant editor. Sure enough
Belle Bovd demanded retraction from
Mr.. Abrams, the editor of the Nevs,
but did not obtain it, and making a
motion as If to draw weapon, was
seized by Mr.. Abrams and turned over
to the police. Being searched, she was
found armed with a Derringer with a
mouth as big as a flour barrel, and a
Smith & Wesson seven-shooter. Mr..
Oliver Jones, of Atlanta, went on the
lady's bond, and she was discharged.
TERRIBLE STEAMBOAT DIsAsTER.-
New Orleans, November 1.-THE reg
ular lower coast packet Empire, Capt.
Jeanefreau, sank about o'clock this
morning, at her landing, foot of Cont
street The Empire arrived about 1890
A. NJ. to-day, heavily loaded with sugar,
molasses, rice, &c Several passengers
lett the boat upon her arrival, OTHERWISE
the loss of lie would have been very
large. AS it is, fourteen passengers
and many of the crew are believed TO
be drowned Five bodies have been
recovered, including the captains eldest
daughter, about seventeen years OF age,
and Mr. Frisbie, weA-known planta-
ton engineer. Captain Jeanefreau lost
four children, but saved himself, wife,
and baby, who were sleeping in the
"texas." Mr. ID. Perrett, passenger,
who escaped from the sinking steamer,
gives his opinion that the boat was
overloaded aud parted in the centre.
The Empire was built at Algiefs about
three years ago, and was owned by the
Empire Parish Packet Company. She
was valued at about thirty thousand
dollars. She had on board about one
hundred and sixty-nine hogsheads of
sugar, besides large number of barrels
of molasses and quantity of rice. 1t
is impossible at present to get the actu-
al number of lives lost, as the books
and papers of the boat are under the
"teXas.
