AN EXCITING INCIDENT.

J. Wedge purchased a very fine dapple gray horse of s. Tumble of Litchtield last week, which he took home with much pride. On his arrival he very kindly placed the horse in box stall, closing the door with care, and retired for the night, to dream of his precious purchase. In the morning early he wakened, and went to the stable with buoyant heart to see his beautiful dapple gray. But no! The stable door was pushed off the track, and the bonny horse had fled. Two days was spent in anxiety before found.
