While the family of Mr.. Benjamin
Boyer. OF Pewelps Fort, were attending
preac hing on Sunday, some rascally thief
broke into their dwelling and stole fifty
four dollars. The party was evidently
we'll acquainted with the house. He
broke window light through which he
could reach his arm and open the latch or
catch that locked the window. After
getting in be went to a desk and broke
tne lock by prizing up the lid, and took
two pocket books containing the above
amount. The thief was evidently in a
hurry to get away as be overlooked a
SIN all sack that contained some gold and
other currency.
The good people ofPowell'S Fort should
spare beitber time nor trouble to catch
this scoHndrel and nothing will be safe
while he is at liberty to prowl around.

A very little dog and pretty good
sized man, beth of this place, created a
big lot ofexcltement between themselves,
especially upon the mans side, one day
last week. In careless, spOrtive mood
Mr.. Letch Burner, one OF our best known
horseback riders, Tipped newspaper in
the face OF small but puenscious dog
belonging to his brother-in-law, Mr.. inc.
w. Martin. The dog did not see it in the
same funny light as Mr.. Bunner, and
also lOosing sight of tie family connec-
ton, proceeded with wonderful quick.
nsss and precision to insert his teeth in
to ms lnsulter's leg. For the FIRST time
in several years our friend Letch found
he had as good use of bis legs as any &C.
robat in the land, and be gyrated around
upon them so rapidly that a spectator
thought he really had an extra lot Of
limbs, while visions of hydrophObia, Pas
tuer's Institute, Fauquier County mad
stones &c, went whiZZlng through MIS-
mind like frey skyrockets across the
the Bonded dome of the darkling
canopy Of night. Since then our friend
has changed greatly In many respects
He has walked for miles to the utter neg
lect of his usual horseback exercise, while
bis appetite, never a strong one, has left
him entirely. This last symtom has real
ly alarmed his friends who at first were
disposed 10 thluk lightly of the matter.
The Western Union Telegraph Company
has been gamer by this singular af.
far, as the wires between this place and
the Pastuer Institute, in New York, have
been kept hot with messages since this
little fool of dog saw proper to misun-
derstand Letch's fun.

Although the weather still remains
singularly cool for this season of the year
the wheat, grass and corn seem to be do
ing we'll. The cutwOrms injured the first
stand of corn to some extent but the re-
planting in most cases came on well, and
the outlook for a crop of this important
grain is fully up to the standard OF the
season. While the hay crop will fall
short of full one it Will be better than
was expected earlier in the season, in
some instances the stand being a fair
one. As far as we can learn the wheat IS
we'll headed and filled, and will be OF
frstrate quality, although the crop OF
straw will be shorter than usual.
