TICE ROWER, AND HOW KE
• WAS ckuun.
Fourteen years ago I drove from Dan,
bury to Littleton, a distance of Torty-two
and'as I had to await the arrival of
two,or three coaches, and did not start till
liter dinner, I very often had a good dis
tance to drive after dark. It was in the
Acid of winter; and the season had been
& rough one. A. great. deal of slow had
,falle t ri t , and the drifts were plenty and
„deep: r , The mail that I carried was not
',Am -4k Littleton by contract until, one
co'cloctidit the morning, but that winter
t the ,pastmsater , was obliged to sit up a
little later, than that hour for me. .
• - Drieday in January, when I drove up
any mail at Danbury, the postmaster called
'.ate into his office.
"Pete," said he, with an important, se
' riOns loblr, "there's some pretty heavy
saor4 packages in that bagl and he
pdinted tc it as' he'-spoke.
spoke. He said the
' money was from Boston to some land
agents_upneafthe Cantulaline. Thenhe
asked me if I'd got any nassengers whd
• were going through to Littleton? Ltold
him I.
.did not know. "But ,suppose I
, have itot?" says I.
• "Why," said, "the agent of the lower
route came in to-day, and he says that
there were two suspicious characters on
the stage that came up last night, and he
stomeas that they have an oye. upon this
.- mail, so that it will stand in hand , to be a
, little careful."
• 11.3. said the agent had described one of
them as a short, thickset fellow, about
forty, years of age, with long hair, ands
thick,' heavy clump of beard - under hie
chili, but none ., on the side of his face.
- He didn't know anything about the other.
I told lain I guessed there wasn't much
danger.
"Ohl no, not if you have got passen
-•• gem 101 the way through; but I only told
you of this so that you might look out for
your mail, and also look out sharp when
you change horses."
I answered that I should do so, and
' then took the bag under my arm and left
t the office. I stowed the mail under my
• seat a little more carefully than usual,
placing it so that I could keep my feet
against it, but - beyond that I did not feel
• any concern. It was past one when we
started, and I had four passengers, two of
whom .rode only to my first stopping
place. I reached ,Gowan's Mills at dark,
_when we stopped for, supper, and where
. my other two passengers concluded to :
stop for the night.
- About six o'clock in the evening I left
aowan's Mills alone, having two horses
and 's pang.
I had seventeen miles to go, and shard
seventeen it was, too. The night was
• quite clear, but the wind was sharp and
cold, the loose snow.flying in all direct
- tions, while the dritts were -deep and
-closely packed. It was slow, tedious
t work, and my horses soon became leg
' weary and restive. At the distils:ice of six
miles I came to a little settlement called
• Bull's Corner, where I took fresh hofses.
I'd. en two hours going that distance.
Its I was going to start, a man came to
me and asked me if I was going through
toliittleton. I told him I should, go
through if the thing could possibly be
done. He said he was very, anxious to
ge, and as he bad no baggage I told, him
to' jump in and make himself as comfort
• little as possible. I was gathering up my
' lines, when the hostler came up and asked
me if I knew that one. of my horses had
•
cut hiniself badly. I jumped out and
.went with him, and found that one of the
animals had got a deep cork cut on the
.4iff fore foot. I gave such direCtions as I
considered necessary, and was obont to
turn away, when the hostler remarked
- that he thought .I came alone. I told him
I did. "Then where did you get that
passenger?" said he.
• "He test got in," I answered,
"Got in from where?"
• "I don't know."
; • "Well now,' said the hostler,
"that's
kitid of curious. There ain't been no
,
Buchman at the house, and I know:there
. _ ain't been none at any of , the neighbors."
"Let's have a look at his face"' said L
"We can get that much at any rate. Do
you to back with me, and when ',get
Utothe piing, just hold your lantern so
the_light will shine into, his face,"
1. Be did as I -wished,: and as I stepped
, i nto t h e mg, I got a fair view of such
t , : portions of my passenger's face as was not
.' =mined*. I Saw a; short, thick frame,

- ' and I turned toward him- " '

1,•;- ;: lbTCed to get out and dawn the snow

\ This took me all ot fifteen minutia; and
• • l'When I got In again Pulled the.the mail
l bar, forward and got my feet upon it.
• I Was doing this I saw= the man taking
• i•itanetidng 'Aim whip, beneath the buf
f/o,4lnd' put it into his breast pocket.
$.l V thought was i .T. had caught
",lbe 1100 sof s• barrel In the starlight, and
when I had time to reflect I knew I cool.;
not be mistaken.
About this time I began to think some
what seriously. From what I had heard
and seen, I soon made up my mind that
the individual behind me not only meant
to rob me of my mail, but be was pre
pared to rob me of my life. If I resisted
him he would shoot me, and perhaps he
meant to perform that delectable opera
tion at any rate. While I was pondering
the horses plunged into another deep
snow-drift, and I was again forced to get
out and tread down the snow before them.
I asked my passenger if he would help
me, but he didn't feel very, well, and
wouldn't try; so I worked all alone, and
was all of a quarter of an hour getting my
team through the drifts.
When I got into the sleigh again I be
gan to feel for the mail-bag with my feet.
I foundit where I hid left it; but when I
attempted to withdraw my foot I discov
ered it l ied become entangled in something
—I tho
I l e
ght it was the buffalo, and I tried
to kic it clear; but the more I kicked,
the mo closely was it held. I react
down y hand, and after feeling - about a
few mOments, I found that my foot was in
the migil-bag I I felt again:,
,and found , my
hand in among the packages - of letters
and pipers! I ran my fingirs'ttiver the
edges for the opening and 'became 'stared
that the stout leather had been cut with a
knife! l
~.
Here was a discoveryl I began to wish
that I had taken a little more forethought
before leaving, Danbury; but as I knew
that making such Wishes was only a
waste of time, I quickly gave it up, and
.began to consider what I•had best to do
under existing circumstances. I wasn't
long in making up my mind upon a few
essential rieints. Fiest, the man behind
me was a - villain; second; he had cut open
the mailbag and jobbed it of some valu-
Ile matter-he' must have known • the
money letters by their size and shape;
third, he meant to leave the stage on the
first opportunity, and fourthly, he was
prepared -to shoot me if I attempted to
arrest or detain him.
I revolved these things over in my
mind, and pretty soon thought of a course
to pursue. I knew that to get my hands
safely upon the rascal I must take him
wholly unawares, and this I could not do
while he was behind me, for his eyes were
upon me all the time so 1 must resort to
stratagem. Only a little distance ahead
was a house, and an old farmer named
Lougee lived there; and directly before it
a huge -snowbank stretched across the
- road, through which a - track had ••peen
cleared with shovels.
As we approached the tut I saw's light
in the front room, as I felt confident I
should, for the old man generally' set up
until the stage went by. I drove on, and
when nearly opposite the dwelling stood
up, as I had frequently done when ap
_proachibg difficult places. I saw the
snowbank ahead, and could distinguish
the deep cut which had been shoveled
through it. •.T. urged my horses to a good
speed,' and when near. the bank forced
them into it. One of the runners mount
ed the edge of the baitk, after which the
other ran into the cut, thus throwing the
sleigh over about as quick as though
lightning had struck it. -
My passenger had not calculated- on
any such movement, and wsumetprepared
for it;. but I had italculated and was pre-'
pared. He rolled ant into the deep snow
with a heavy buffalo robe around him,
while I lighted on my feet directly on top
of lain. I punched his head in the snow
and sung out for old Lougee.. I did not
have to call a second time, for the farmer
had come to the window to see me pass,
and as soon as he saw my sleigh over
turned he had lighted his lantern andhur
ried out.
"What's to pay?" asked the old man,
as he hurried out. '
"Lead the horses into the , track, and
then come here," said L
Av I spoke I partially loosened my hold
upon the villahalajhroat, and he 'area! a
pistol from his bosom, but I saw it in sea"-
son, and jammed his head into the MOW
again; and got it away from him. • -11 Y:
this time Lougee ad led the horses out
and came back, and I explained the teat. )
ter to him in. as .few words , as poesiba
We hauled the rascal opt •into the road,
and, upon examination, we found - about
twenty packages of let ters which he had
stolen from the mail-bag and stowed away
in his pockets.
He swore, and threatened, and prayed;
but we paid no attention to his blarney.
Lougee got some stout cord,and when
we had securely bound the villian_ we
tumbled him into the pung. I asked the
eld man if he would accompany us to
Littleton, and he said "Of course !" So
besot his overcoat and muffler, and ere
loqg we started on.
I reached the end of my route with my
mail all safe, though not as snng as it
'light have been, and my mail-bags s
little the worse for the game that had
- been played upon them. However, the
mail robber was secure, and within a
week he was identified by some - officers
from Concord as an old offender, and I am
rather inclined to the opinion that he is in
the State prison at the present time. At
any rate, he was there when last I heard
from him.
,-That's .the only time, I ever had any
mall trouble; and I think that, under all the
circtunstances, I came out or it pretty well.

'Tivo'lFrutrleldal Murders.
Yesterday ivenlie about six o'clock,
two brothers named ' James and Jesse
Clouston were engaged in shearing sheep
at their farm in the vicinity of Poplar
Springs, near Cameron, West 'Virginia.
They were also engaged in conversation
upon a topic which had been the subject
of some dispute. . Jesse claimed that
' James had promised -him a _table cloth
on The occasion of his (Jesse's) marriage,
which transpired about six months ego.
This alleged promise, not having been
fulfilled, James was taxed with rembis•
nes& — An altercation ensued. in which,
according to our informant, James called
Jesse a liar. Jesse replied With a blow,
upon which James stabbed his brother
with the shears which be bad in his hand.
Probably the blow went immediately .to
the heart, for the wounded man dropped
upon the instant. Further particulars
have not been learned.— Wheeling Intelli
gencer. '
On Sunday night, two sons of Mr.
Kemper, at Olandorf, Putnam county,
had a dispute about the disposition made
by their father of his estate. Finally, one
of them,
~ who; had becorhe frenzied by
drink, struck the other a blow on the neck
with ailitiiiti, i iesulting in the death of the
latter, initiati an hour. The murderer, on
seeing the result of his rash act, came to
Ottowa 'and Surrendered himself to the
authorities.
Potato r pecutatars Bitten.
. The high price of potatoes for a couple
of. years past induced farmers to plant
'unusual quantities ofthese esculents, and
being favored with good weather the crop
brotight a heavy' yield. Last fall the
. ,
prices .00ntittned high—the usual rates
about the clo e of navigation being from
$2 to $2 75 per barrel. Some farmers
were, however, not 'content with these
figures, and held large, quantities of their
potatoes overl until this spring for, better
prices. in this they erred, and avarice
for once is punished as it ought always to
be. The supply this spring is far greater
than the demand, and histead of realiring
the prices of last fall, holders are ,at 'our
steamboat landing only getting from-fifty
to seventy-five cents per barrel for the best
varieties. Inisome places prices are even
lower. Farmers are carrying potatoes to
i l Fort EdWard at prices ranging from
twenty to thirty cents per buthel, and
some varieties are ot salable at any
' I n
price; while . 1 in Herron, at the starch
mills, they bring only_ ten cents per
bushel, and are not wanted even at that
price. Many farmers were unable to get
all their crop off last fall, and are to be
pitied; but th e who kept their supply
back for evagant prices this. spring

The Administration has decided not to
do anything more than is being done
towards the preservation of peace in
Georgia. General Terry, who is in com
mand, has been instructed to yield all
pusilile as stance to the civil authorities,
and is doing so. He reports a number of
arrests made by the military.
There is good authority for the state
ment that this Government may abiudon
its projected attempts to transfer f er
negotiations regarding the Alabama di i;.

this are many, but the greatest is the fact
that the Alabama having been built in
