HArTYORD, Jan. 12.—This city has fost been surprised by the apprehension and de- tection of a twelve year old boy thief, whose luxurious tastes, magnificent purchases, and lag continued peculiarities, coupled with his tender years and infantile though bright appearance, furnish subject matter of a nature that fairly eclipses the plots and situ ations of the flashiest of juvenile literature, In the office of the chief of police is exhibited the following curious collection of boy treasures: A nickel plated bicycle, which cost $53.5 an elegant rosewood music box, valued “ $05; a double oil stove with attachments, for which $15 was paid; an amateur printing press, for which £15 was paid; an amateur printing press for waich 835 was paid, and another of a smaller pattern, $15; six fonts of different type in a cabinet t; a violin and box, £0; a snare drum with nickel body, #12; a harness, lap robe, mat and blanket, $21.50; a child's sleigh, $10; a white astra. chan cloak, red silk lined, $14; a secalskin hat, #8): two pairs of kid gloves, $4; a gold thimble and case, £5; a suit of clothes, made to onder, to be used as a bicycle suit only, 120; a toy express wagon, §J; a silver wateh, #16; another, $10. two large cut glass bottles, with exquisite eau do cologue $2 each, an elegant pair of pearl gold mounted opera glasses $15, a magic lantern and slides $5; silk stockings $4, an overcoat $8, plated fruit dish, pickle jar, cup and oyster ladle, an elegant gold pen with & very clear pearl handle, a silver watch chain £5, two pairs of nickel club skates $4.50 a pair, a pocket knife $4.50, twe velocipedes $13.50, ana a tricycle $14, gold peck chain and locket §14, a neck scart #4, and an innumerable host of other goods, including enough toy books to stock a small stationery store. Ivory handled whip $3.00, music stand £3.50, ete, All these goods were purchased by Joseph Hubbard, a twelve year old son of W. F, Hubbard, living at 75 Governor street, with money stolen from his father. Tho boy is a bright and precocious youth. Mr. Hubbard, the father, runs the grist mill: of Smith, Northam & Co., of this city. He bandies all the proceeds of the mill, and as he makes weekly settlements with the owners he usually bas considerable money by him. He bas been in the habit of biding bis funds about his house, and the fhoy has just as regularly been in the habit of discovering the treasure and helping bimself. Messrs. Smith, Northam & Co. be- came convinced that they were not receiving the money that they should, and a watch was set. The boy confessed that he had been taking money from his father for near ly a year, and that in all he must-have stolen between $300 and £700. The house was searched and a cart load of goods found that had beeu carried home by the boy. He calmly listened to his trial in court, and like a young stoic received his sentence, a pil grimago to the state reform school until be is twenty-one 3 years old, + FIVE MILLIONS AND AY HALF. The Lehigh Valley Directors. Cutting an Unexpected Melon, PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 8.—One of the fne surprises of Third street, and that a very plessant one, at a on sul are few and far between, was the action of the Le- high Valley directors in voting an issue of 20 per cent. of new capital to their stock- holders at par, the new stock to be paid for in installments at any time during the pres ent year, The company bas nol issued any pew stock since 1875, though in that time it has increased its gross earnings more €0 per cent, and its available revenue al most, if not quite, as much; has increased its gross earnings 85 per cent., and its net earn ings 100 per cent. It bas raised funds for the necessary development of the road, as its business has grown, by using surplus net earnings and the sale of Easton and Amboy first mortgage 5 per cent. bonds The directors have voted to authorize the stockholders to subscribe for 20 per coat more capital stock, or $5,520,700 in all, in the proportion of one new share for every five which they now have. Holders of les than five shares will be entitled to scrip pro- portionately to their holdings, convertible when presented in even shares. Payments must be made in installments of § per cent, the first prior to February 15 genug- time wi than 5, and the re mainder in April, July, October and Jacwary pext. Interest will be allowed at the rate of § per cent. until January 15, 1855, after which time interest will cease, and the scrip will be convertible into capital stock. The proceeds of this new issue will be de- voted by the company to reimbursing it for the money used in redeeming more than a million of consolidated mortgages bonds and in making further improvements along line of the road and in straightening the track and in improving its terminals at Buf- falo and Perth Amboy. The Egyptian Crisis, Loxpox, Jan. 9. —* Chinese” Gordon, in an interview with a reporter of the United Press at Southampton today, protested against the abandonment of the Boudan, especially of the Eastern Soudan and Khar- tou. He suggests that Sir Samuel Baker be appointed governor of the Boudan and that Mr. Foster, Inte chief secretary for Ire land, be made chief commissioner for Egypt Gen. Gordon says that in the event of the appointment of Bir Samuel Baker to. the ip of the Soudan his influence with the tribes there would cause internal dissensions among the Mahdi's forces which would lead to their dispersion, and advises that in order to hasten the breaking up of the rebellion £2.000000 be given to Sir Bamuel Baker for distribution among the difirent chiefs under the Mahdi Ha de clares that the rebellion was brought about by discontent at the bot religious warfare which was being carriad oo in the Boudan, and states that the Mahdi is merely a pup- in the hands of Zebehrd, bis father-in- w, who is a large slaveholder.
