Mr. Savage’s
horse, stolen from the vicinity of Covington some time last week was found in a
stubble field near Lafayette and returned to the owner a few days since. He was probably stolen by one of the gag that
prowls around Lafayette and secreted to await a favorable opportunity for
running him off to a distance market. Several gentlemen of the horse-thief
tribe have recently been lodged in the Lafayette jail and more are being
diligently sought after by the authorities of the city.
