In fact the sheriff used now and then io lrop in Uncle Joe's ostensibly to read the papery and talk! politics with the neigh, bors, but Uncle Joe could see as far into a . millstono as nipst people, and knew very well that it was all in the way of bu$i- ' Some ten miles off there lived in a soli i tary house in the woods a man who had en a frequent customer at Undo Joe's. ( Through his means ho hoped to play his contemplated trick-on the Sheriff. -Uncle Joe inew that this man, who had a fast horse would call on a certain Saturday afternoon to get his supply ot groceries for the week following, and that the Sheriff " would keep, his eyes open while he was in the 'store. - Accordingl y -he contrived to see this Benton (tlwa man's name) in pri vato a few minutes, when they concluded - an arrangement which promised good re - - suits ! ' Benton drove up to tin door, and cter ing aftked mysteriously to see Uncle' Joe lbno.j Meanwhile all his groceries were sent out and deposited in the wagon. The . Sheriff stood, carllessly leaning against a pstf but noting with argus eye the varU us article that were put in. ;' At length Benton came out. hurriedly carrying a large gallon kettle, about who.e .aafety he seemed anxiou?, and looking fur tively at tho Sheriff, jumped in, seized the reins and was about to drive off,1tvhen the ' Sheriff called to him x "'. ; A moment, if you please 'Have you any objection to inform me what are the . ( j contents of the kettle P Why,' said Benton, in a confused man Jiwr, "what do want to know for F Hjs manner convinced the Sheriff that his iuspicions" were well founded. "Be cause, to tell the truth, Mr. Benton, I have a Eirong suspicion that it is something the law has declared contraband. As an offi cer, it is my duty .tor ascertain by examina tion, unless you tell ma- what it is,' said he. ' ; : - - A good deal of fuss about a little lamp oil . ' "Imp oil! Ah, we'll see if that's, the case, So saving, the Sheriff advanced towards .the wagon, with the intention of investi gating the matter, when Benton gave his horse a sharp cut, exclaiming ''Gee up, old marc, we,ll fix 'em yet.' The horse sprang forward leaving the baffled Sheriff behind, 4 A horse! a horse! I want a horse P he exclamed Kvho'll lend hit one !" 4You my take mine for five dollars,' said a man whose wngon stood in front of the store. .'Tint's exhorbitant.' 'I don't care, I can't let him go for a cent less,' The Sheriff hesitated for a moment. Five dollars was an extravagant price, but he burned to distinguish himself in the of fico to which he had just been "appointed, so waiving this he exclaimed 'I'll, give you the money,' and leaped into the wag on. The animal which he had in use, tho' not quite equ d to Benton's was an excel ent horse and het flattered himself that he could eventually come no with him as he was still in sight. " " On they both dashed at a break neck pace, Benton in advance. Whereverlkejr passed a house, thowindows werq crowd ed -with spectators! 1I thinking as in the caso of the luckless Holm Gilpin, t,hat they Three four five miles were passed on ver, and still the sheriff was nearly a quar ter of a mile behind. IJe comforted him self with the thought that Benton would make straight for his own house, and that there if not before he should tran him This would be full ten miles distant from the place he had started. However, it was in the exercise of his duty, and he would doubtless be repaid. On still on pressed the reeking steeds, urged by their impetuous riders. , , Seven eijrht nine. miles! and still Benton held his own. But he is diawin near his own house. The, Sheriff feels the importance of overtaking him before he has had an opoitunity to conceal, or oths erwise dispose of the liquor. For this pur pose he spurs on his jaded steed, urging him to still greater velocity, while TVnton designedly, although this did not appear to be tho casoi let his fall behind, so, that the Sheriff's horse entered Benton's yard in close pursuit of its legitimate owner. 'Ah! I've cantrht you, have IV he exclaim ed le$,fiug' from his wagon. 'Ve.so it seems,' said Benton wiping his face, Init yoa had a pretty good tug for it. ' 'And now I must seethe contents of that kettle: ' '0,very well,' said Benton coolly, just take off the coverif you like.' The sheriff did so. , ' " Vky it's onhj lamp oil P said ho in a tone of disappoint ment. 'Just what I told you, but'you wouldnt believe me,' remarked Benton' as he pro ceeded to unharness the horse. The Sheriff noticed the' sy twinkle of his eye as he said this, and h needed no thiug further to show him that , he had Leon in vulgar pariancn decidedly so M ! Slowly gathering; up his rein?, and with out another word, directed his course home ward. He didn't trouble Uncle Joe much after that. I" ' : Shocking Occurrence at a Mormon Baptism 5 About half past five o'clock yesterdaf mprmng, a party of jdormons, numbering probably abont fifty, under the direction of Elder n. Greenholy, crossed the river by Captain Air's, ferry, for the purpose of ad ministering baptism, to some eight or ten converts. They proceeded up the river ban to the foot of East Row, where the cSbn verts composed of "both males and fe males, Were prepared for Jbaptism. This preparation was indecent to say the least soth ,men and women were required to strip to their linen, in the midst of the crowd on the river bank: Tne Elder led an old man, aged about fifty "years, by the name of Alexander Wil liams, .who resided near'the corner of Wes tern Row and Front street, into tho water baptized him aceording tb the ceromoniea of the faith. After this the old man was a good swimmer, struck out into tho water for the purpose, it is said.of taking a swim It is suppesed that his drawers slipped do wn over his feet, which destroying his mo tion, -caused him to sink, His son, als named Alexander, about 23 years and who was stripped for baptism, seeing his fatter sink, plunged in after him. Ue could not swim at all, and getting- into, deep water immediately sank and drowned before his father. ; Dragging hooks were ob"tafned as soon as possible, and iu an hour's time both bod ies were recovered. Coroner Foster of CampbeU county, held an inquest over the bodievand the jury returned a verdict of accidental drowning. The bodies, were delivered over to a son and brother,, who were present at the holding of the in quest. . Cincinnati Dailg Timc July 2. Read Clxmmes's letter on the 1st page.
