HEARD From AGAN.-It would not be in
the nature of things for SO prolific and numer-
GUS an individual as the late Wallace Nc
Pherson to long remain in obscurity. Hav-
ing become alienated in his affections toward
Sacramento, from the frequent arrests and
prosecutions making the temperature too trop-
ical for him, he left the city Immediately
after his discharge from the Superior Court
a few days since, and with injured virtue
sought more appreciative people. He has
now been heard from at Stockton, where, I'M
der the name of William Mcpherson, he sue
cessfully wormed himself into the con-
fdence of the Caledonian Club of
that city, and finding they were in quest
of piper for their club, he assumed
the role of professional in that
line, and was at once placed in lionized
position among the boys from Scotia's hills.
He was given enviable quarters in the home
of the chief of the brotherhood, and goodly

he might be properly supported while he
formed the browning sheaf of the clubs
organization and anticipated enjoyment at
Highland fling, etc. Everything was now
complete but the bagpipe, and member Of
the club in this city was appealed to to send
them bagpipe, as they had now an ex
perienced piper. Accidentally the name of
William MCPHERSON was mentioned in
the letter to this city. and men,
Der going through Stockton called to
see the much admired acquisition to the
found to be no other than the late Wallace
MCPHERSON, who had so recently and success
fully bilked many members of the club in
this city, and who had made the modest
change In his front name from Wallace to
William. Upon being recognized by the
gentleman from this city the order for bag
pipe from Sacramento was countermanded,
and the Caledonisn Club at Stockton is again
without piper.
ANOTHER RoBBERY.-Night before last as
officer Ferral was passing along Second
street, near the alley between K and i,
man with his face terribly cut and bleeding,
and partially covered with one of his hands,
came out of the alley, and upon being ques-
toned at first declined to say much, as he
said he did not wish to be made witness,
but afterwards stated that he had just been
knocked down and robbed near by in the
alley by an unknown man. He met the man
By the alley upon the Second-street walk,
in the vicinity. The man invited him to
step into the alley as il not to be seen, to take
drink with him out of pocket-hask.
When they had walked few steps into the
darkness, the man struck him a violent blow
upon the eye, making heavy deep cut across
the brow and also corresponding one at the
top Of the cheek bone. The officer conveyed
him to the police station. where he was cared
for Officers Ferral, Rider, Cafferty and Ost-
rested H. Holden and H. Proctor upon
suspicion of their having been connected
with the transaction. Yesterday at
ternoon officers Ferral and Cafferty also
arrested man who gave his name as Henry
Keiser, and whom NJ. Ives, the prosecuting
believes TO be the man that knocked
him down and robbed him. Upon searching
Keiser at the station-house a breastpin was
found upon him, which it was soon after
he had just stolen from the house
where he was arrested. and for which an ad
ditional charge was placed against him. A
nice gold cuffpin was also found in his posses
sion, with the words Baby Mine" engraved
upon it, for which an owner is wanted.
