A GOOD ARREST.

The Robber OF Several San Joaquin
County Farmers Lodged in Jail.
For some time past, says the Stockton
Republican, San Joaquin County farmers
have been robbed of plow-W heels and light
agricultural implements. Suspicion rested
upon one Coblentz, junk-dealer, who was
arrested and acquitted owing to difficulty in
identifying the stolen articles. watch
was set upon the suspected man, however,
and on Friday some OF the missing articles
were found in a Stockton junk-shop aud
identified by the owner. Coblentz was
thereupOn arrested and lodged in jail to
await trial on Tuesday next
The ranch-house Of Mrs. Hill, on the
Lower Sacramento road, near Stockton,
was entered some time since and despoiled
Of almost every portable article, including
crockeTY and glassware. COblentz is
strongly suspected Of being the thief, and a
determined effort Will be made to prove his
guilt.
A bottle OF stryehnine was found in the
prisoners pocket. 1t is thought that he
used the poison to dispose Of the dogs that
interfeTed with his depredations.
CobentZ has many aliases, among them
being Fowler, smith, Wilson, NOss and
Bowers. He went 10 San Joaquin County
from Bakersfield about six months ago. He
was convicted or stealing wheat at the latter
place and served term In the chain-gang
COblentZ kept diary in which he re-
corded the details of his sales, but he was
very careful TO avoid making notes Of where
his goods we're obtained. The diary shows
junk sales averaging from $50 to $50 per
month.
The farmers who have suffered by these
deDredatons are jubllant at the prospect of
recovering their property.

man he passed himself Off as a horse doctor
and completely deceived the Union pickets
and scouts along the route. His informa-
tlon put the southerners on their euard in
the Shenandoah, and Patterson's army was
checkmated at every step, fact that con-
trlbuted to the Bull Run disaster.
Meanwhile jackson was superseded for
time by Gen. Joe Johnston as Confed-
crate leader in the valley, and Johnston
called Col. "Jeb" Stuart to the front as
chief of cavalry in that section. Stuart
was younger than Ashby, but he had been
IN the old army with Joe Johnston and
Robert e. Lee, and enjoyed their favor.
Ashby was on the point of quitting the
service when jackson interfered and got
MN detached to another field beyond
Stuart's bailiwick. When Johnston made
his celebrated march to Bull Run field
Stuart followed him, and Ashby's star
arose again. Bull Run made Jackson
famous as "Stonewall," and with a major
generals commission he returned to the
Shenandoah in command of the district
and Ashby resumed his old place rs chief
OF cavalry. Ashby had not been idle in the
interim, but as lieutenant colonel of the
Seventh Virginia cavalry had thrilled the
hearts of his neighbors with numerous ex-
piolts. The young men of the region pro-
claimed him as the leader of their choice
by fiocking to his standard.

jackson began q sharp campaign in the
extreme winter weather of December and
January Ashby's cavalry bearing the
brunt, making forced marches in snow so
deep that the horses had to be led, and
striking right and left until their enemy
was driven across to Maryland, the railway
and canal west of Hancock, Md, being cut
and closed against Union traffic
The campaign of 1862 opened at Win
chester in March, when Banks army began
its historic advance and retreat" in the
Shenandoah. Ashby took two companies
of his own regiment and skirmished with
Banks advance until it entered the town.
His passion for seeing what was taking
place within the enemy's lines led him to
linger behind when his troopers fell back,
and on attempting to regain his command
he found his way blocked by two men, and
a large hostile force on either flank push
ing far in advance of him. He rode quietly
up to within few PAGES Of the men, then
put spurs and dashed on them at gallop
shooting one and dragging the other along
by main force to the Confederate lines.
This kind of personal daring had charm
for the actors in the early scenes of the
war. 1t was such recklessness of danger
that made Ellsworth hero, immortalized
young Winthrop at Big Bethel, crowned
the name of Lyon with laurels in the west
and made Phil Kearny the idolized war
god of the hour. Such deeds-and there
were scores of them during Ashby's short
career, could he possibly have survived the
perils-would in time have placed him
beside Forrest and Custer as leader of
daring attacks.
Stonewall's methods, however, called for
other qualities in a cavalry commander,
and in carrying out his chieftain's policy
to always mystify, Inislead and surprise
the enemy" Ashby was as cunning as he
was reckless at other times. In Jackson's

called upon his men to follow and rode
over fences and bitches up the embank-
ment, relying upon saber and pistol to cope
with rifle and bayonet Three times the
charge was repeated, and two of Ashby's
captains fell by his side before he gave up
the contest.
. The remainder of the campaign, so dis
astrOus to Banks, was an inglorious one
for Ashby's cavalry. For some reason the
men, with few exceptions, fought on their
own hook and but handful rallied around
their leader to follow up and harass Banks
retreating column.
When, in turn, jackson made his retreat
up the valley few days later to anticipate
Fremont's column that was threatening
the rear, while Gen. Shields pressed the
Confederate front, Ashby made skillful
defense with the rear guard. One day a
Union battery advanced close enough to
stampede the cavalry and infantry of the
guard with a volley of we'll aimed shells.
This stroke was followed up by charge
of Union cavalry, which Ashby repulsed
by personally leading a small ambush
party made up of stragglers that lowered
in the wake of the column.
In an affair of this kind Ashby ended his
career at Harrisonburg, June6. Fremont's
advance, under Gen. George D. Bayard,
was pressing Ashby's guard closely, and
the leading detachment was successfully
ambushed and it's leader, Col. Percy Wynd-
ham, captured. Col. Kane's Pennsylvania
Bucktails were behind Wyndham, and
Ashby laid another ambush for them, and
with two infantry regiments attempted to
strike the Union column in the flank.
Kane's men, however, delivered the first
fire. and Ashby, who bravely rode at the
head of his men, was shot down almost in
stantly So it was with him as with his
chieftain, Stonewall; with "Jeb" Stuart
also, and with our own Kearny, and with
the i'll starred Bayard himself a few
months later. Death came not in the ideal
way Of some grand hurricane of battle, but
