Fire in Oxford.

The County Commissioners received atele- graph dispatch yesterday from their colleague, Lewis B. Perkins, Esq, of Oxford, in which it was stated that his barns with contents had been destroyed by fire. The particulars were not stated, but it is presumed to be the work of incendiaries. It is also thought that Mir. Perkins carried no insurance, and if such is the case the loss will fall heavily upon the worthy County Commissioner.

E1Opements Two Norwich Families
 Abandoned.

Yesterdays Hartford Times, in dispatch from Norwich, says: Mir. George Gardner, proprietor of an omnibus line to the Old Town and Bean Hill from this city, mysteri- ously disappeared about month ago. It was known that he was heavily in debt, and at first it was believed that he had fled to es- cape creditors A week ago it was pretty definitely settled that he had eloped with the pretty -year-old wife of Captain Fox, of Preston. Gardner, who is about 40 years of age and lame, leaves wife and one or two children in his home at Bean Hill Mrs. Fox leaves 4-year old girl. It is thought that the couple have sailed for Australia, though a friend of Gardner asserts that they took passage on steamer for Florida. Cap tain Fox traced his wife as far as New York city ,and there lost all clue of her. Gardner had been attentive to Mrs. Fox for a long time, and used to take her riding in his small onl- nibus. Mrs. Gardner is overcome with grief. Gardners effects, consisting of two om- nibuses, eight horses, harness, etc., were sold by public auction on the city square on Sat urday afternoon to satisfy the claims of cred itors.

A Wealthy Thief.

READING, April l5.-Lewis Robin
son, son of j. Robinson of Honeybrook,
Chester county, was arrested to-day
charged with stealing the property of
his neighbors. He is a married man.
one of the wealthiest farmers in the
vicinity, of good family and the highest
reputation heretofore in the community
where he lives. The causes that led
to his arrests are briefly these. For
several months past robberies have
been frequent, and all efforts to obtain
a clue proved futile. At last the vic
tins organized themselves into a de-
tective association, which was called
the Harmony Detective Association
because they met in a school house
bearing that name Their investiga-
tions have been in progress for several
weeks, and a few days ago the mem
bers met and each stated what infor-
nation he had secured. One man
said he had missed whipple tree
which he found Robinson using in a
floor Another said he had lost a sad
die and identified it in Robinson's
stable. A score of members reported
that their poultry was stolen and Rob
inson, who had none at all and was
never known to buy any was making
frequent consignment to Philadelphia.
Still another said his daughters wed
ding trosseau had been stolen and the
dress was identified upon Mrs. Robin
sons person. Information Yves made,
Squire Morton issued warrant Of
arrest and Constable Griffith served it,
accompanied by the Detective Associa-
ton. Upon confronting Robinson
with the charges of his guilt, he con-
fessed, the house was searched and
several wagon-loads of stolen property
were discovered hidden away in hooks
and corners, closets, cupboards, draw
ers, in the garret and between the bed
ding Robinson was arraigned before
Squire Morton and admitted to 81, 900
bale, his father, James Robinson, be-
coming his surety.

Serious Accident.

Wednesday morning last about half
past six O'Clock Mr.. w. C. Mobley,
Superintendent of the Parker and
Karns City Railroad, met with what
may prove a fatal accident at Parker.
Mr.. Mobley was in the lower elevator
rooms waiting to be taken to the sum-
nit, and inadvertently stood inside,
where the car in coming down from
above, struck him, knocking him down
and crushing him very badly before
the engine could be stopped. The gen.
tleman in the car stopped the machine
as quickly as he could after discovering
there was some one underneath. The
car was hoisted, and Mr. Mobley taken
out in an unconscious condition. The
extent of his injuries could not be
ascertained for some time. 1t was at
first supposed his back was broken,
but as soon as he was taken to his
home, his clothes removed and medi-
cal aid summoned, it was found that
he was very badly injured, but to what
extent could not be ascertained, as he
was still unconscious. 1t is not very
probable that his back is broken or he
would have lived but short time, but
his condition is critical, and but little
hopes are entertained for his ultimate
recovery.
