Horses Stolen.—We learn that a fellow
who made himself known here as Brooks,
some three weeks since, and claimed to be a
horse tamer and trainer, stole two horses in
While county on Monday night last. He left
here and stopped at Searcy, giving his name
as Hunter, where he was engaged in training
ho <es at a Livery Stable. Dr. P. T Quarles
hut left a horse at the stable to be trained.
On Monday evening Brooks, alias Hunter,
took the horse from the stable for the purpose
of going down to Little Red river, some three
miles, wh“re it seems he broke open a stable
and took another horse and left. Dr. Quarle’s
ho se is a deep chesnut sorrel, sixteen hands
I high, has a white spot on the right side of
I his neck, half way between the head and
shoulders, under the mane. We did not. learn
as to ihe character of the other h»ise stolen,
» only that it was a fine animal. Several men
\ are in pursuit of the thief.

HARDSCRABBLE PAPERS.
Volume I.Number III.
WATTENSAW TO MISS DE8 AKC.
M-r. Editor: We were much gratified to
find, by your paper, that we had convinced
some fair maid that she was leading a very
M stale and unprofitable ” course of terrestial
existence, and had induced her to try to
choose fioin the numerous, stable and highly
interesting horde of bachelors which infes'
our region of country—a proper mate. At
the s.une time weweievery much surprised
thit the ones who were so much honored, as
to be noticed and advertised in our “ Hard
scrabble Papers,” did not seem to be the one
oeoues that she felt disposed to love, honor
and obey, and to cherish through chills, fever
and hooping-cough. Imprimis—with regard
to my individual self, for I was the first her
shafts were directed against—she objects to
roe solely because the hairs on top of my
head aie
“ hike angel visits, few and far between
In other words, the shaper of our ends has so
O'damed it that I should be barefooted on top
of my head. We are very sorry to see that
Miss l)eS A.lc [la8 shown us, in such broad
a lit unmi.-takable terms, that she is not a lov
,r of the iutellecual. It was probably a
|“lapsus pennse;” for. had she considered for
a moment, she would have felt convinced that
the baIdness was caused by the workings of a
rolghty brain. To one touched with this in
u fii'intty alone, as she seems to consider me, the
1 saud and gravel she advises for the gizzard,
. Bwonid be like pearls cast before swine—for
,> B^'clfoct seldom stoops to consider the welfare
,1 H*°i the inner man—but love of the human kitid

is ■ The proprietor* of the empty corn crib,
B>eg leave to suggest that they had ihe misfor
ut Bute la-t year and this also, to cultivate very
lb B>:d laud—but to use their own expression—
B ere this sublunary sphere shall have accoin
its annual revolution around the ob
p, Beet designated by astronomers, as the center
,t, Bf the solar system,” they hope to be the
i*1 Bropi ietors of some virgin soil. Wb»n they
^pdl biddefimee to the world, and will be
'^pilling to make a wager that in twelve
months their cribs shall be full to overflow
ing—besides an armful for their friends. It
grieves its beyond expression, to find that
Miss Des Arc is devoid of all those endear
ing qualities, so characteristic of the cow,
when she wishes to attract and protect her
calf. The maternal zeal and enthusiasm with
which she inserts the projections of her oc- j
cipit or frontal bones into the bread trav of
the unsuspecting pig, who thoughtlessly wan
ders near her young. We are as much sur
prised however as grieved, for the amount of
bellowing kept up by Miss Des Arc, was suf
ficient to attract a young elephant from the
region of our antipodes.
Our antiquated Bachelor friend, who Miss
Des Arc advises to put broken hoops around
his head, wishes the experiment tried. He
has a sneaking idea of committing matrimo
ny and does not know how hoops feel, and he
desires to give them full trial ; for at some
future day, he 'hinks probable, barrel hoops
and staves may be applied in a summary man
ner, to different portions of his body.
The Reptile Bachelors, who sun themselves
in the fence corners, are still confident that at
some futuie day they can crawl into the
hearts of some unsuspecting female ; unless
her heart is like that of thecaifi-h and s mu
of our acquaintances, in the head.
Our neighbor, who dyes his hair, thinks it
far better that he should dye it than that it
should die itself.
With these few and simple suggestions, we
will leave Miss Des Arc and your honorable
self, Mr. Editor,—hoping the sand and grav
el contained in her heart, may spend itself as
heretofore, in ink; that it may not cut the
tender fibres enclosing the holy place, their
domicil, and. let it drop like too many do into
a pair of new heeled gaiters.
Yours exultingly, WATTENSAW.
