Horses.

UNION sToCKYARDs. INDIANAPOLIS. Oct.
1.-THE receipts OF horses continue small. only
about 100 head having been offered in the regu-
lar sale OF Blair. Baker & Walter. against 300
a week ago. There were no new features In the
market. the supply being fully equal to the de-
mand. which is very Indifferent and limited from
all sources. The quality OF the arrivals was as
satisfactory as expected at this time. but there
were very few good horses in their class repre-
scented. 1t was dificult to negotiate sales, and
prices were no better than those current in the
initial sale OF the week. Carriage teams were
reported as high as $3.50, and there were occa-
sional sales at sl25 and above. but a very large
proportion Of the supply sold below $40 per
head. Among the regular shippers on the mar
ket were John E. vestal OF Plainfeld. Blake &
Sheets of Anderson, Charles Decker OF Column
bus. John G. Clark OF westheld. and John Brown
OF Sullivan. with two loads.

were perhaps q little groggy, but not
q whimper did they make until Black
Beard, or William B. Niles, as he now
represented himself, had exchanged
them for $4,000 in gold.
The slaves were lowered in boat
that the planters had along side to con-
vey them ashore, and when the last
and the last planter was seated in his
boat, then Black Beard gave the order:
up anchor, and away!"
"Where away, sir?"
'For the island," said Black Beard,
rs the anchor was raised above the wa
ter's surface.
All sails were set, and the schooner
swung round, caught the breeze, her
sails filled, and she was off. But there
were now shouts and signals from the
boat-the formerly terrified negroes
had evidently told the tale of their ab-
duction from Charleston, and of the diff
ference in the appearance of the
schooner from what it presented when
they boarded it, to clean oranges for
fifty cents thousand, or fifty cents a
hundred.
The shouts and cries increased, and
the boat headed about, the oarsmen
pulling with might and main towards
the schooner.
A stalwart black whiskered man
stood at the stern of the William b.
Niles, and as he raised his hat politely
from his head, he said:
"Good-by, Altemaha. Yourwaters shall
never again be cleft by the William 3.
Niles, but they may be by the craft be
meath my feet-this is your first visit
from Black Beard"

White was firmly bound to q chair,
the vaults opened, and the cash speedily
transferred to bags; then gagging the
cashier sufficiently to render it impos-
sible for him to make himself heard, the
plunderers left the bank.
They We're joined on the outside BY

where's Toombs and Lankey?"
asked Black Beard.
"Fightin' round yon corner" said the
man addressed, "to attract the atten-
tion of the hossifers."
"We'll go that way and get them,
they might be run in"
AS they rounded the corner, there
were the two sailors, pummeling each
other Justify, while two policemen were
trying to separate them.
"Hey!" yelled Black Beard, sis that
what letyou ashore for? Avast there!
you fighting blaekguards, bothering
the officers of this peaceful town."
The two sailors We're subdued in an
instant.

"Here, officers, here's a couple OF
pounds for keeping my frisky sailors
IRON eating each other up. I'll see
that they bother you no more"
Thanks, captain, we'll drink your
health. Lucky you came along, or
you'd have found them jagged in the
morning"
"rll jug the burgers when get them
aboard"
But Black Beard and his men didn't
go directly aboard; they first visited
the county jail, and Black Beard aroused
the jailer, and informed him that he
had two drunken sailors that he de-
sired locked up till morning.
Five pounds was sufficient to con-
vince the jailer that they should be
locked up, and he produced his keys
and unlocked the Jail door. AS he
turned, he found the revolvers that
short time before had been leveled at
the cashiers head, leveled at his.
What could he do but weaken? The
door of the cell of Plunkett nnd Cobb
Yves unlocked; the letters taken from
their limbs; the jailer WIS locked in
their cell, and Black Beard and his
comrades FASTENED to the planning mill,
where they found the two boats in wait
ing, and they were rowed aboard.
What luck, captnin?" asked the
mate, as the Black Beard mounted the
vessels roll.
Immense! Immense. mattel Punk
EFT and Cobb are here; they will not
