ARRESTED FOR STEALING MEAT-On Friday
night week, the smoke-house of Mr.. Joseph
Maphis, near MI. Jackson. Shenandoah county,
was robbed of thirty three pieces of bacon,
some sausage, beef, &c.
On the next day, Joseph Bamber, who had
served five years in the penitentiary, sent from
Rockingham county for highway robbery, sold
bacon to several merchants in Harrisonburg -
Suspicious circumstances led to the arrest Of
Joseph Bamber. Edward Fry, and Robert Will
liams the last being town-sergeant of Mt
Jackson, who spent Saturday in a pretended
search for the stolen meat. These parties were
after an examining trial before three Justices
at Mt. Jackson, sent to Jail at Woodstock to
await indictments by the grand jury.
A set of harness, which had been stolen from
Jas. Kavanaugh of Harrisonburg last January,
was found in the possession of Robert Williams
the exemplary town-sergeant of Mt. Jackson.
The Old Commonwealth of Harrisonburg says
THE presumption is that the harness was
taken from here by Joe Bamber, and Williams
testified that Bamber brought them to his
house. The harness was first seen in Williams
shop, but after the trail began to get warm in
regard to the meat, the set of harL ess was re-
moved to a closet in Wililams's shop, where
they were found and identified by Mr.. Kava-
naugh.'

Black,cood's Magazine for March, republished
by THE LEONARD SCOTT PUBLISHING Co., Al
Barclay St.. N. Y, is an unusually full and in
teresting number.
The first article, ireland under Ordinary
Law" endeavors to show that neither the per-
manent alteration of the land law, nor coer-
cion of a temporary nature, nor both COM
bined. is likely to produce results satisfactory
to Ireland.
1.-THE Private Secretary is continued, and
we have an account of the heroine's family
and early life.
Recent events in Greece will make the pleas
ant article, among the Albanians of South
ern Epirus," very acceptable, since it presents
the views ola careful observer, and describes
the social and political condition OF the Alba
mans. Many readers are probably not aware
that here is society made up of castles.
Part III. of Lady Martins papers takes up
the character OF Desdemona and, after detail
ing some of the writer's early stage experiences,
she gives the story of the play and a beauti-
fuldescription of Desdemona as she dreamed
of her in those early days, and as she herself
represented her on the stage.
There are several articles besides these, but
we have only room to note "Homer's Sea Epic
rendered in Ball adj Measure" long review
with numerous quotations of Sir Charles Du

KEEP AWAY FROM STAUNTON.-While moth
ing definite has been ascertained as to the ex-
tent of that lOathsOme disease small pOx, in
Staunton, we advise our people to remain at
home until the ''scare'' is oyer.-Highldnd Re
cOrder.
If the Highland Recorder has learned moth
ing definite in reference to the small pox in
Staunton it must be because it has failed to
read the Staunton papers, all of which gave
definite and accurate Information in reference
to it..
We were the first to give this definite infor-
nation, and did so for the reason that it was
due to the public to be furnished with the facts,
ar to relieve the apprehensions of those in
the country who, we knew. would hear exagge-
rated and false reports, and would be afraid, in
consequence thereof to come to Staunton,
when there was, in fact no real cause to deter
them from doing so.
A few days since we inquired of gentleman,
who came into town from the country, if he had
heard that there was smallpox here before he
came. His reply was
"Yes, heard it was raging with violence,
but when saw the SPECTATOR knew how it
was, and no longer had any fears of coming to
Stanton
We feel no fears, and do not think that any
one should fear to come to Stauntou.

No MORE SMALLPOX IN STAUNToN.-We
take pleasure in being able to give the assur.
ance that there has been but the one case Of
smallpox in Staunton, which was mentioned
last week, that OF Lorenzo Smith, who is now
convalescent and outof danger, and that there
is no fear Of any other cases unless they be
brought here from some other place. No atten-
ton should be paid to rumours, as the papers
OF the city will publish the facts in reference to
it, and it is upon these reports that the public
should rely, and not upon unfounded rumours
No persons from the country need have any
fears ofcoming to town, as there is no danger

Letter from Mt. Sidney.
Regular correspondence

MT. SIDNEY, March 18th, 1881.
Il Naq1oao Escope.-As Mrs Black ell of this
place and Miss Burrus of Albenarle county,
attempted to cross North River last Monday,
in a buggy, near Mt. Crawford, they came very
| near being drowned. The river at that point
is very deep. and when about half way across,
it was found that it was too deep to ford, and
the horse becoming obstinate, stopped and was
in a few minutes drowned. The occupants
retained presence OF mind, and remain ed in the
buggy until they were escued from their peri
ious position by Mr. Christian Miller who for
tunately came along in the nick of time. The
ladies were not hurt. but very much scared.
The horse was a very valuable one, and the
loss falls heavily upon Mr.. Blackwell as that
is the seventh he has lost by accident.

containing about 63 acres. and lying miles

give pitiful sum to the maintenance of the

such persons are destitute of religion as the

celyed the name of Jesus Further it does
not matter how often professors attend church,
or pray, or commune, or speak in class n eet-
Ing; whether or not their life is bright or a
dark one, for aness they help their feitoecmon, all

October last, has paragraph relating to the
murder of two brothers named Wilson, who
had invaded the Ute reservation to recover
some horses which had probably been stolen
by the Indians. but were overtaken ere they
made their escape and killed.

and John E. Wilson, brothers of our towns
man, who left this county about the year 1916
and located at Eureka. New, where they have
since resided. The apprehension is strength

their corn crops, and but few cats been sown.
