Peterson's Magazine for Decern ber more than maintains Its unrivalled character. There are two beautiful steel engravings, besides a superb steel fashion plate, the latter exquisitely colored In addition, there is a mag nificent Berlin pattern, in wonted- work, printed In colors, which at re tail, would cost fifty cents: this is pre sented to the subscribers of "Peterson" as a Christmas gift. A charming etory, "Mrs. Million" is as charmingly illustrated. The number contains a Supplement, with a fullttized pattern, for a winter Paletot, the pattern alone being worth more than the price of the number. All these costly embellish menta are afforded by the enormous circulation of "Peterson," which, as the publisher says, enables him to give more or the money than any other. We canot leave this subject without speaking of the very high character of the stories in "Peterson." But how can it be otherwise, when ita regular contributors are Ann S.

On Saturday night last, at Farming ton Centre, Warren county, a team of horses were stolen from the barn of Mr. Samuel Garfield. The buggy had evi dently been taken from the barn and returned, f.r Mr. Garfield had run It under the shed with the tongue out, and It waa found In the morning In an opposite position. At Mr. Brown's, Mr.. Garfield's father-in-law, and a short distance from the latter'a place, a top buggy, buffalo robes, whip, etc., were stolen. Aa Mr. Garfield was going home on Saturday evening he noticed two suspicious characters near his house, and who took particular notice of the team he drove. On the discovery being made, Sun day morning, that the horses were gone from the stable, the owner of the stolen team, together with Ira Burget and John Dunn, started In pursuit The fugitives were tracked through Warren, In the direction of Sugar Grove, by the peculiar shoes with which the horses were shod. After going some distance the thieves changed their course and took an opposite di rectlon from the one first started in. After following the track for fifteen miles the pursuers were within about three miles of their starting point and in the direction of Sheffield, at which place Constable John Allen Joined the party and the chase was continued through the Warren woods, the runa ways being sighted about three and a half miles from Rldgway, near James Rickard's house. Shots were fired by the pursuers and returned by the pur sued without any taking effect, save in the back of the top buggy which the thieves were driving, In which seven bullet holes were counted. Near Rick ard's James Gardner ran out to stop the horses, and was shot at by the oc cupantsof the buggy, who, finding the game was up, jumped and tied. The next thing we hear of them they are seen on the Shawmut railroad. Sheriff Oyster, Deputy Wensel, Constable Horton and Al. Brown, with a rifle started to make the capture. It is supposed they only went a few rods into the woods from the place they left the buggy, and then regaining the turnpike the next morning walked through Rldgway a little after day light. Sheriff Oyster was on horseback, and passed the men on the Shawmut road, but, as he knew the chaps were armed and as four men had undertaken to arrest them and failed, he concluded to push on and get help and nab the lads as they struck the ttrockwayvilie road. When the sheriff met them he said " It's pretty rough walking," and they agreed with him exactly. It is evident, from the fact that they did not come out to the road, that they knew the sheriff and turned to one aide, taking the path over Boon's Mountain. One of the parties is supposed to be Frank Ryan, a noted character in this section, and who has already served out a term in the penitentiary. The chase was given up, ami the dealers in other men ure Uewii are still at large. List of Jurors drawn for November Term of Court. commencing Monday, November 18, 1878: flRAXn JCRORS.

Friday afternoon, says the Sunbury American Daily, as the passenger train going south had emerged from the bridge at the narrows and was ap proaching the crossing, Mr Henry Shipe. seated on a wason loaded with corn, applied the whip to his horse ana attempted to cross in front of it. The horse was a little slow In res Don d- ing, however, and the pilot of the lo comotive which came rushing up struck the back part of the wagon with such force that both wheels were wrenched off, the corn sent flying in every direction, and Mr. Shlpe thrown out. The train was stopped and sev eral passengers got out to see the result of the accident, while Mr. Chas. Garin ger, who waa working near by dropped bis tools and hastened to render what assistance might be needed. All ex pected, of course, to fiud Mr. Shir severely injured, but, remarkable aa it may seem, he arose from where be l ad fallen and proclaimed himself un- hnrt. Aa a proof of his sound condi tion he walked to a nelsrhbor'a bor- rowed another wasron and. Aomlno- back, reloaded bis ooro and drove on.
