Arrest and Conviction.

Thomas r. Dawson. n Young man ilv~
ing in Union district was brought 10
this place last week and lodged I'm Jail on
the charge Of theft. It appears that on
the 10th Of this month he, in company
with several others, among whom a tailor
named Klatt, went from Aurora 10 Port
land. While ct Portland several Of them
became slightly intoxicated, and did not
start home until late. Kla:t and Dawson
were in wagon by themsel yes. and
while driving along, Dawson became
very afiectionate toward Klatt, and put
his arms around him several times, pre-.
tending that he wanted 20 drive. Some
time after arriving home, X latt dscov-
cred that his pocket-book. containing a
five dollar bill, twenty dollar bill, and
twenty dollar gold coin, was missing
and that his pocket was cut i'm several
places. On the following morning RIatt
went 70 Dawson and told him he had lost
his pocket book and stated that he
would give FIVE dollars to tho finder Of
it. on the next Saturday, Dawson was
At Portland, and made several purchases.
and finally bought ticket &c Clarksbur,
and paid for it with the same 20 dollar
gold piece that Klatt bad lost. This
aroused suspicion, and he was followed
and arrested at Wilsonburg, in Harrison
county, but ON tho way back, ESCAPED
from custody. Ills home seems to have
had a great attraction for him. and he re-
turned to Aurora on TUESDAY, and ON
Tuesday night was arrested. He was
