    A EHfjitive Caught.
Much excitement has recently prevailed at
Wilkesbarre, Pa. in consequence of thecap
ture, by stratagem, of a fugitive slave.
Some time in February last a company of i
slaveholders and their agents were there from
the South in quest of fugitives from labor.
Among mem was uie owner (or nis agent) on
oiiu iiausun, a luymvu, wiu was, anu lias
until captured, been in the employ of a weal
thy man living about seven miles below
iiKUbuarrc, uu mu ousquenanna luver,
whose, name is Harvey. It seems that infor
mation had been imparted to them of the
whereabout of said Hanson; accordingly they
repaired to the premises of Harvey in quest
ot him. They succeeded in finding- him, and
the peril of their f the pursuers) lives,
Such open resistance of the laws of our
country led to the prosecution of Harvey, and
the parties "with their counsel and their res
pective witnesses, met at Williamsport the
second week in June to have the merits of
the case decided. It is understood that one
cr two witnesses were examined, when the
parties held a consultation and adjusted the
matter. The manner, however, in which it
was settled, was not made public, nor is it
thought that the witnesses were let into the
secret Harvey, together with his witness
es and counsel, returned home on Thursday
morning.
On Saturday, he sent Hanson to Wilkes
barre with a team, taking good care, howev
er, to send some one with him, to return the
team in case Hanson should be captured.
Hanson had been but a short time in town,
before a number of young men, governed by
Marshal Rosct, made a dexterous and unex
pected attack upon him, bound him hand and
Jbot, cast him into a rough vehicle, and hur
ried him off toward Philadelphia.
The citizens of Wilkesbarre regard the
circumstances under which Hanson was cap
tured as little better than downright kidnap
ping, and feel very indignant in consequence
thereof.
A few days afterward, the authorities ar-
rested a negro barber named Mason, who had i
threatened the lives of several of the citizens1
of that place, for arresting Hanson as above '
described. While on his way to prison. Ma
son drew a razor and cut the officer in the
face. He is now safely lodged in jail.
The Wheat Crop. From all the wheat
growing States there are most favorable re
ports of the prospects for the coming harvest.
In Pennsylvania, New-York, Ohio, Indiana,
Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa, as
well as in some of the more southerly States,
there arc indications of a crop rather above
the average, and the quality of the grain bids
fair to be superior.
Farmers' Account.
We have for a long series of years
ivatched pretty narrowly the habits of
many farmers, and we have found that
those who have kept constant and accu
rate accounts, and settle regularity "with
their neighbors; also keep all their farm
operations in neat and regular order.
On the other hand, those who are care
loos and slack in settling or paying their
debts, also keep a slipshod account with
every part of the farms ; no system, no
clockwork regularity is maintained in
their yearly routine of work. They also
waste time in hunting for displaced tools,
waste money by doing work out of sea
son, and waste happiness by fretting over
the disorder and confusion which their
own hands have created. To avoid these
It 1 i
evns, Degin anew, ny settling, in some;
shape or other, with every bedtor and i
creditor, and keep a strict and careful
account with every body, but more espe
eially with yourselves, and hi- out wort
with regularity and execute it with en-
cruv.
A late French newspaper relates a
marvellous incident, which is said to have
occurred during a recent thunderstorm
in an interior department of France. A
barn, in which -were two goats, was struck
by the lightning, but not burnt. After
the shower a woman who had been ac
customed to feed the goats, went to the
barn, and perceiving that the animals
were entirely motionless, approached and
touched them, when to her great aston
ishment and alarm, they fell and crum
bled to pieces, exhibiting nothing but a
mass of ciders "
A discovery has just been made at Her
miones, in the Pelopennesus, of certain spring
of water which, when mixed with oil, be
comes at once a kind of soap. A sample has
been submitted to chemical analysis.
PENNSTiVAKIA STATE LUNATIC HOS
PITAL. The Harrisburg Union announc
es that Col. John Havilaud has entirely
completed his contract for the erection of
the Pennsylvania State Lunatic Hospital
at that place, and that the building has
been delivered over to the commission

three stories high, and with every possi
ble and improved convenience, has been
done for less than 8100,000. Trustees
will now immediately commence furnish

will be ready for the reception of pa

patients, under an appropriation made
last spring.
