An Itinerant Correspondent.

About two months ago Wilmer Evans,
an Engilshman, made his appearance in
Staunton, representing himself as a cor
respondent of numerous journals, and
intending to make horseback tour of
Virginia, to gather data from which to
make his communications instructive
and entertaining. To effect this he
hired horse from Mr.. Alex Hartman, of
Harman's livery stable, for two months,
and was to make remittances each
month. Two months passed and moth
ing was heard from Evans, when Mr..
Hartman accidentally learned that he
had been arrested at williamsburg for
board bill he owed at Ford's Hotel,
Richmond. He had represented himself
as son of ''Col Evans,p of Jeb Stuart's
Staff. Capt. Lewis Hartman, brother of
Alex. Hartman, and Col. Funston, of the
ID. u ID. 81 b. Institution, were members
OF Stuart's command, and when they
heard OF Evans representation, they
promptly said there was no such staff
officer with Gen. Stuart as Sol. Evans. :,
Alex. Hartman telegraphed to an officer
at Williamsburg, and followed his tele-
gram in person. When he met Evans,
the latter expressed his qualification on
seeing him, and gave numerous excuses
for his delay in carrying out his contract.
Harman carried with him a warrant for
Evans arrest, but told him he did not
want to give him trouble All he wanted
was the hire of the horse, his own ex-
pense to Williamsburg, and the safe
return of his horse free of all charge
This Evans promised to effect. The
matter was left in the hands of proper
officers, until Evans could make things
square and go on his way rejoicing as
the correspondent of all indefinite num-
Der of publications. Since writing the
above we notice that Evans has been
playing fast game with other people
giving checks which were dishonored,
and beating people out of board bills
He travelled with servant, and deceived
many by his smoothe talk and courtly
manner. He has a brother living in
Roanoke.

the cruelty of killing it.
The mouse, when it discovered the
lady. became frantic. 1t made many
futile efforts to escape, running
around the tub. trying to find some
friendly hole in which to make it's
egress, The little mammal endeay-
ored to run up the incline Of the tank
only to slip back and repeat the un-
successful attempt. Becoming eX-
hausted and overcome with fright,
the mouse finally skunk into q corner
and remained perfectly motionless.
The lady visited the parlor to in
form her husband of what she had
seen and tOget him to kill the mouse
He objected to dispatching the ro'
dent until morning. At the time the
gas in the bathroom was lighted.
On returning to the bathroom and
opening the door softly the lady saw
strange sight. Eleven mice were
on the edge OF the tub pulling away

The chain was slowly being raised
Sitting on the plug, with its lore Tee
