Mr, Lamb got the horse at Courtrii ht, below Sarnia. Baker left Goderich on the Monday morning after leaving here, went to Varna, where he • watered the horse and then proceeded to Exeter, near which place he traded, the buggy with a farmer for an old cart worth about two dollars reeciving about two dollars to boot. He there drove through to Arkona, reaching there about 9 o'clock at night and put the horse into a hotel stable with the evident intention of remaining over night. For some reason, however, he did not stay at Arlaona, but took the horse out of the stable and cleared off again. He drove to a farmer's barn, some distance on the road, where it is supposed he rested for a part of the night and here he cut the mane off the horse and cut the blinders from the bridle. This was evidently done todis- arm suspicion and change theappear- ance of the horse, as the landlord of the hotel at Arkona had examined the horse and remarked upon the nice mane it had Ho also left his Bible, which he had been carrying with him, there. He next brought up at Court - right abont 11 o'clock Tuesday,leaving the horse in the stable and has not since been heard of. This is on the border and there is no doubt but the rascal in- tended taking the horse to the United. States, but perhaps finding the duty more thaa he had money to meet, be left the horse and crossed the river hint - self. The horse is none the worse for its adventures and the buggy will, ne doubt, be reclaimed from the man who has it.
