" What a bungling set of fellows

; man. whose tone h ft it doubtful

"It'll be money in your pocket and

said he, eyeing me curiously, "It's
very queer, though," ho added, look

I proceeded to give a minute nar-.

falling in with the pretended ex-detective,
expressing the opinion that
the latter would be found taking the
half-past eleven train for rfan Fran-J

"The telegram for vour arrest,"
said the Chief, "was sent by myself,
on information coming from an un

It was speedily opened and in it

The character and quaKtv of tlu; out thc a tll; vue whose
horses raised in the different horcn-i forgeries, up to that period, had nev
er m the history or crime been sur
passed in magnitude of amount, or
raising sections vary very materially.
The Vermont horses, esjx cially those
with Morgan blood, Jiavc leen and
are still considered superior to 'all
others for general bnsiness purposes,
and as pleasant driving horses. In
deed, the Morgans appear to have ah
sorlwd something of the rocky nature
of their native hills into their own
skill of conception and execution.
Fven Fauntleroy'3 were, as compar
ed with his, the "merest trifles. They
rose to millions, and for several years
were carried ou with cderitv, precis-
j ion and success that were amazing;
i nor in that particular specialty of
iron con-titutious, which seem capable cnme has au-v successor reacted the
of enduring any amount of hard labor ! of wDormitv attained by
without iniurv. Like nil horp 1
raised in mountaino" s countricR, thev ' Benjamin llathburn in early life re- d Vt.ia

valuable on that account, as it has

Jibe did the hard work thoroughly.
She washed and dressed the dead,
carried out the infected bedding and
clothing, disinfected the room, and
quieted the bereaved children.
Heroism like this deserves the
highest fnlogiuru. The world lauds
the courage of brare men who risk
their lives on the battle-field, bat do
not those Xashviile ladies, who like
the one to whom we now refer,
braved the perils of the pestilence in

Kat.tk'nak-! ar? more plenty this
season in some of the old settled
counties than ever before. At Kiha,
on the line between Wiaona anI
Olnistead counties, a young man who
i was holding a breaking plough saw
his ploughshare cut a rattlesnake in
(two. A few minutvs after he stopped
j the plough again to clear the colter
front brash and weed whi' h had
j clogged before it, nnd a he was pu!l

its first bite, and h plainly saw it
strik". Instantly putting the wound
to his mouth and sucking it, he start
ed for the farm-hon.se, nitty rod
away which he reached with difficul
ty. Whi.-.tey was given him freely,
and a physician was sent for. When
the phvsician arrived, some hoars
after, the poisoned arm was badly
swollen and nearly black in color; but
at last aeeounts the man wa.s recov-
erincr.
At Toe's Mil!, in the same town, a
Mrs. Jones stepped into the front
door of Lcr house jast in time to see
a large snake erawlin r into the rear
door. Her screams brought her boy,
a lad of twelve years, who soon kHIed
the intruder, which earned eleven
rattles. The same day one was kill
ed in an adjoining yard, and another
at a Louse half a mile away.
In Filmore coaaty Mrs. CosgroTe,
of Lauesboro, found a rattlesnake:
four feet long coiled in the kitchen

Many of them are also lacking in am

edly owing to the little care taken
heretofore to raise horses of ocly good
bioou. tlie taiitoruia larmers are
newer at thc business, but are starting
on the right oasis, and are aiming to
introduce the be?t blooded stock.
The soil and climate of the State are
also admirably adapted to horse rais
ing, and many prophesy that the time
is not far distant when the great
market of the country for fine horses
will be west of the Kocky Mountains.
One of the most noticeable changes
of the horse trade in thc last century
is Hmj increase of values, w hich have
advanced very materially even in the
the steady
constantly growing demand of
the large cities. Indeed, the number

Indeed, for many years northern Xew

monopolized the horse trade of the
country, and horse raising was about
the most profitable employment of the
inhabitants. The fertile valleys and
hillsides furnishing abundant pastur

water of the mountains aided not a
little in giving to thc Vermont horses
that stoutness, courage and Iasting

been noted. Put the advent of the
