A CASK FORSYMPATH V.
Some three years ago. says the Bostorr
Post, a yoang man, aceorapHnsed by a young
lady to whom ha was deVott dly attached,
stopped at Springfield while on u traveHinu;
excureion, and engaged a horse; and buggy
at one ol the urery tables there, to he ab
sent some days. Th stated nuvflber ol'dat a
having gone by. and the young mnn Inning
to appear, caused the owners of the team lo
be alarmed, and they immediately issued a
band bill, headed "Stop thiel!" In li e
meantime the young man made his appear
ance, and judge of his surprise to find him
self at once seized by the officers of justice.
He endeavored to reason and cxpo-tubite
with Ihe owners of the horse nnd ca- rw trr,
assuring them that he was wholly innocent
of any criminal intentions, and eflered th-m
the.full price of the rstaplishment t be re
leased. Ail this proved unavailing to the
hardened wretches. Rather than suffer the
ignominy of a trial which would hva resul
ted in the exposition ol the young lady ntid
bis highly respectable connect ion", he gava
an assumed name and plead guilty.
He is now in our state prison, sick ami"
emaciated, serving out his aenfeiicn. which
expires in aboot twenty dajs. 'lie never
disclosed the above facts until yesterday, nor
would they even now ne known, oof for Ins
being in such a debilitated state as to roake
