EVENING STAR. ? i T ?? -r ~ Local Int*Uigtnco. As Abravt Ivpostir ?The name of Wm H. Thore bury i? well known in this commu nity, ard, therefore, the following srtlole. copied from the hicbmond Enquirer ef day, may prove indicating : "'Wm H Tboribckv?Wnaaa in Ha?*? This dUiin(ai?k?J indivi lual played ? prom inent pert in the Know Nothing oauvaa' la this city, being ns?d by 'hp managers a ' good ?nongh Morgan' to excite indignation &gain?t the pro??riptive Democracy end to whaedle the we*k-minded in'o the Secret Camp! He wu a veritable Simon Pure vie im of opprea aion at the Go-port Navy Yerd, and his arri val in this fti'y with hie fre?h bleeding wounds. wu hailed as a ncr auspioiou event by the whippere in of 14 8am " His personal tes imony to the ruthless prescrip tion of himself and sixty thre< other worthy mechanics at Por sm >atb, spread like wildfi;* through the atreeta; and at the Know Nothing mam meeting on the Capitol Square tho night before the eleetion. this bleeding victim, we learn, waa pom ously paraded before the erowd by a Know Notning speaker, and mem bar of tne next Uouae of D?!egetea, who tore the pataiona to tatterain hia furious denuncia tions of the groas ou'rage and hia glowing appeals for revenge at the ballot-box next d*y ! Thornbory made a speech and de*eant ed on hia wrongs?and the sympathising Know Nothings, we learn, raised a pony purse for the unfortunate distressed The next morn ing there appeared a fl.ming afUavit of thia aame Thorn bury to the truth of all that ho aaid Uaviog served hia own purpose and that of the politice! mana&era, he auddenly disappeared jnat in time to save himself from the reek ng vengeance of his duped victim. The responae to the affidavit of hiawion^a ?ame back from Porsm>?th in so clear a light, that all partiea were satisfied that he waa an arrant imposter and that he had com mitted most vile perjury !" The fir?t we ever beard of an individual of thia name waa abou' saven mon ha ago, when he called upon one of oar oitisena?an Odd Fellow ? for assistance, representing that, while traveling, hia pocket bad been picked, and that not only hia money, but hia "travel ing'* certificate. (known to that benevolent order.) had heen stolen He. however, gave a?ch other proofs cf brotherhood, as to com mand ready relief He eft hia private card, the name beantifallj written ' Riv Wm H Thornbury." He subsequently visited Odd Fellows Hall, where be managed to obtain money under similar pretenoea Before he had time to tell bis pitiful *:ory?or, ra'her, his lie??to all of the li dges. bis true charac ter was discovered, wben he impudently tbreatemd to make a publication in deroga tion of the fraternity He circulated himself freely about tie community, calling upon minsters of different denominations, claiming to b* one of the;r number, and ac?ommodati ag himself to their respective creeds, and obtain iog from each pecuniary assistance So fa vorab'e was the impression which he made on an ut suspfc'it g partor, that he was invited to preach for him?a request which he de clined; and tbis is the only item to be placed to bis credit The fellow was repeatedly drank while in the midat of us and was ar rested by the police for being engaged in a fight with a negro! and would have been sect to tbe worihou # but for the promise, on his part, that he would at or.ee leave the ci.y; wi b which asauraDce he complied. We claim some credit for ourselves for mak ing the conduct of this arrant impoater known throt gh the pr -a* at that time When we saw hi* name in connection with recent political movements in Virginia, we were in doubt as to whether be w<u the same individual, for, jndgu g from hia conduct in Washington, we bad thought that, ere thia. he was in some S'ate Penitentiary, where certainly he deserves to be This Thornbury profeaa d to ui to hail from Georgia; but the a'vement may, like all of hia other as ertioni, be false. Exxcctor de so!* To*t ?On Wednesday evening waa tried before a jiry, the ease of Punch against Kagan Ir appears accord, ing to our information, that Ju*g. Pur^ell aued Rsgan as an execu or dr. son tort (in hia own wrong) of Thompson Hutchinson, de ceased Pureell had a demard agaitat Uut chinaon. in hu lifetime, which the deceased had admitted was correct. Vari?us witnesses were present, and testified to facts in the case Judge Pureell acted us bis "wn lawyer, while Mr Ratcliffe appeared for Rjgan. The first named, during the argument, referred to sev eral authorities, among them that of Lord Macsfield, to ahiw that the declaration of a dying man is helJ to be sufficient to cancel a written instrument previously execu'ed by him We refer to this point oen.-elving tbat it may be a matter of interest to some our readers The oase had twice been tried, but tho re rtive ju ies were not able to agree; but in tbe * bird center t, a verdict was rendered for Purcell to the full amount claimed to be due, namely, fifty dollars. * A Dii*tt Tbief ?Yesterday, a black man was discovered m the act cf stealing yeung chickens, whi*h temptingly chirped about bis premises, intending, dour>iless, to have a deli* eate dinner and a obeap one. too, in these times, when it is so difflcalt to procure the necessariee of li'e. His wife, in vindication ot her bu-baod'a character, itoutly denied the im;>u'ation of ber female neighbor; and was ao exa-perated as to mike an a-sault on the accuser Ibe consequence wa*, the b'ook man was taken before a ju-tice of tbe peace to answer to tbe charge, and will be placed in a condition which will prevent him from enjoy, ing the aoniempla ed ohicken luxury; while hia wife will be required o keep h^r aruui to herself, and to bridle hor tongue.

Plan roa a Railroad raox St Louis to Memphis ?The Memphis Ea^le and Enquirer ia out in favor of building a railroad from St. Louis to Mempnia, and givea the following plan, which haa been ably di?cussed through ita columns by Col. J T Swajne. and which it thinks entirely feasible, even in tbeae hard timea: The plan, as we underatand it, ia thia: It is proposed hat the ownera of the landa along the line of tho route in Arkanaas organise rhemetlvea into a oonpany; that each mem bar of this eompany put in bia land aa eo much atock; that a portion of theae lands be mort' gaged for a sufficient amount, together with what the cify of Memphia may subscribe, to Commence the road It ia propoaed :o invest a part of the funds raided on the land mort gage in three or four hundred alavea. who will grade and do all the eerthwork trom Mim phis to the Mioouri line, (61 miles ) where the people of St Laui* and Missouri are to meet us with a road from St. Lonia via Iron Mountain and the Pilot Knob. Aa the work progresses the land* of the company will of oourae ceme into market, and another portion of them will be old to iron and equip the r->ad ready for tho active operationa ot trade and travel. This ia. in effect, the plan upon which the Illinoia Central Road waa built. That road is about 770 milee long, and waa built by the judicioua management of a Congressional do nation of 3 COO 000 acree of wild lands The thirteen gentlemen who organised tbe com pany under the charter, graded, ironed and equipped the road with the land, and, after the whole waa Gnisbed and all expenses paid, they still had $4 550 000 worth of land lef;! Now, tbe Mempnia and St Louia project will have two advantagea over the Illinois Centra!: flrat, in the artiole of alave labor; and. second, in a la-ger proportional amount of land? Bay not less than 500 000 acres, with whi -h to build Al enles Slave labor ia cheaper than free labor, and after the roa-i ia built the slaws may be BcJd without loss?possibly at a profit; and whereas the Illinois Central had nr.t quite 4 000 acrea of land to the mile with which to complete that road, the Memphis and St Louis Road will have over 8 000 acrea to each mile of tbe read in Arkanaas? bly me?e After the road ia built, the pro ceeds of tbe aale of the alavea will pay off the 'be company will have from lonOuO to 200,000 acres of land? and the road Ah Editor's Own Dribk ?According to the Priooe'on Kentuckian, the following ia a recipe tor the ezcluaive drink of MeOondwin, tKe magnificently funny editor of the Paducah American : Take one pint good whisky atir in well one apoonful of whiskv. then add another pint of wbiaky. beat carefully with aapoon, and keep pouring in wbiaky Fill a large bowl with watc*. and make the aervant set it out of your riech Take a small tumbler, pour in two apoooiful of water; pour out tbe water and fill up with whisky, and add to the above.
