BE tllNI.1CE.-VlE OF THE IVA K OF THE REBEI,- 1.1 ON IN .Til9.10FBI* Tiie Bafchfro.'one-hundred and eighty Men. [U o a the St. Louis Democrat.] During the war hundreds of scoundrels took advantage of the situation to plunder the defenseless in the districts overrun and laid waste by armies. They robbed and murdered without hesitation or regard to sentiment Their han Is were against every man, and every man s hand was against them. One of the most ferocious and bon’ ribie creatures of this class was known to live in the Ozark Moun^ tains, near the Arkansas and Mis» souri State line, and in a very short time he was spoken of and feared in that region, both by citizen- and soldiery. The name of the ruflian, robber and red-handed murderer was I-rank Burton, and he was originally a horse-thief in A rkan sas, but was so closely pursued into Texas, by a crowd bent on lynch ing him, that he concluded to seek pastures now, and found them in the Ozark Mountains. Forsyth, Mo., and Carrolton, Ark., are about forty miles apart, and at the side of the road between them Burton selected his place of abode. lie built a half hut at the mouth of a natural cave in the side of the mountain, about 400 feet above the road, and there lived alone. Few people saw him and lived to relate it afterward. He always carried a long rifle and heavy side- arms, nnJ would. SIIOOT I-OWN AND BOB any one unfortunate enough to come within range of his gun. After his deeds begun to be kuown a detachment of Federal soldiers was sent after him at half a dozen dif ferent times, but alwaj’S returned one two or half a dozen men short. Burton wore an old butternut suit, much the color of the trees arid rocks on the mountain side, and was an adept at hiding himself and slipping from bush to bush without b ring seen. On one occasion company of twenty or thirty men limited him for a week, and"at last got him on a mountain, which they - surrounded. They then started up j one within pistol shot of him out o, the slope, out had proceeded but a curiosity- to hear what they had to say. The trio at last entered the — VOL. 1. The woman feared and loathed him, but was afraid to refuse, know ing that be would shoot her down at the first word of remonstrance. Two Federal soldiers, in a camp seven miles from the spot, con cluded to ATTEMPT HIS CAPTURE, and obtaining leave of absence, started for the house. Before leav ing camp they dressed themselves in dirty, tattered linen clothing, although the month was Novem ber, and the weather was bitterly cold. One of them was Zachariah Thomas of Co A, First Iowa cavalry, and the other was a member of the Tenth Illinois cavalry, whose name is forgotten. On approaching the house, they concealed their pistols in the woods, and without arms of any kind entered the clearing and bailed the woman. It was then about twilight, and both men were shivering with cold and fear, and Thomas afterwards said he would have given anything he possessed to have been out of the scrape. The woman answered the call, and they told hex that they wanted to see Burton. She said he was not there, but they insisted that they must see him, and would remain until he came. The woman finding that they were obstinate, at last consented to let them remain over night, and promised to send her son for Burton in the morning. They passed a miserable and anxi ous night, and rose- long before daylight About eight o’clock the boy returned and reported that he had found Burton and informedhiin that two men « ere waiting to see him. Burton had answered that be would come over, and in a few minutes afterward appeared at the while Barton wasatillon his hands and knees, sprung on his back, and using both Hands showred blow after blow upon his head. CRUSHING HIS SKULL, in at almost every stroke. When satisfied at last that the wretch was dead, Thomas dropped the poker, and the men, completely unnerved with the terrible struggle, laughed hysterically. The woman, vho had been a terrified spectator of the scene, and who had, after the blow, wrung her hands and cried, 11 For God’s sake, don’t let him get up or we are all lost,” fell to the floor in a dead faint The soldiers dashed a part of the contents of the water-bucket over, and soon restor ed her to conscieusness. They then took Burton’s rifle and side- arms and started for the camp, leaving the body on the hearth. They had proceeded but about a quarter of a mile when they heard the woman scream, and turning, saw her beckoning to them to re turn. Not knowiug what she wanted, they ran back and saw the most horrible sight they had ever witnessed. Burton, whom they had supposed dead, still a spaik of life in iris ugly body, and after they left had gained Iris hands and knees and endeavored to crawl away. IIIS EVES WERE POUNDED FROM THE SOCKETS and, as his head was beaten to a jelly, he of eourse knew nothing, although he had groped around until lie had found the door, and on his hands and knees was crawl ing away over the dead grass.

They shouted to him not to shoot, and, throwing up their arms, declar ed that they had no weapons.

Their exploit made them in tV»** v voa nf f bo taoaiaIo in [From the San Francisco Chronicle.] We doubt if a more thrilling spectacle has ever been presented under canvas on the Pacific coast than that which has been for the past two evenings introduced here in the Italian circus of Jackson street—the double trapeze perform ance of M’lle Millie' Grace and Ilenry Clark, who have electrified the public by their marvelous double acts in mid air. The pro priety of such exhibitions, attend ed as they are by imminent peril to the life and limb of the performers, may well be doubted: but so long as the public crave the excitement of seeing their fellow mortals peril their livts for its amusement, so long will the excitement be furnish ed. It is difficult to give an accurate idea of the blood-curdling spectacle. The lady is a model of female grace and beauty, lithe and supple as a cat in every movement, but giving no outward indication of the mar vellous strength required to act her difficult and perilous part. As she made her appearance in the ring, an involuntary murmur of admira tion arose from the dense throng of spectators; she smiles a graceful acknowledgement standing beneath the trapeze, and grasping a line, ascended hand over hand, and takes her place on the bar, twenty feet above the ground, where she is join ed an instant afterward by her fellow performer. A moment of rest, and then follow, in rapid suc cession, all the difficult poses and dangerous acts usually performed on the trapeze, everything being done with an apparent ease and confidence that elicits rounds ofap plause. Another rest, and then Mr. Clark glides to the upper bar, and then follow a series of feats exciting to the last degree, the interest being generally intensified by the idea that one of those accomplished and daring performers is a woman.

Before the others bad recovered from their surprise another puli'of smoke was seen and another man fell. The survivors made a rush for the rock, firing as they ran, but ere they reached it another shot from THE DEADLY RIFLE OF THE ItOBs HER brought down a third man. The party at last reached tho rock only to find that the assassin had dis appeared without leaving a trace. \V bile looking for his track they again heard the crack of his ritle, and another of their number dropped dead. This continued until terror took possession oi the party, and they beat a hasty retreat, near ly one-half of those remaining be- iug convinced that the object of their search was something more than mortal. The General in com mand of that district at last offered a large reward for the head of the scoundrel, and the reward was in« creased when it was found that he continued to rob and kill unmoles ted. hive thousand dollars was at last offered tor him dead or alive, and a description of him was prin ted aud circulated among the troops. He was described as short and heavy-set, with immense and mus cular hands and arms. His hair rough unkempt beard were black as the plumage of a crow, and was utterly filthy and disgusting in appearance, as he sometimes did not wash his face or hands in weeks. The neighbors living too near him be killed or drove away, and it is said, and probably with truth, that he murdered no less than one hun dred and eighty persons while in that region. One family living within a couple of miles of his cave he spared for his own convenience. The family consisted of the father, a HALF-WITTED PUNY CREATURE, rite wife and one child, a boy ten or twelve years old. Burton, when m the neighborhood, occasionally visited foe house and forced them olurnish him with provisions. He reatened them with death if they ever admitted that they knew him, T at ae ca me to the house, and i ■ ie T , new that he would keep • , wo ™> they answered all in- q me.- by denying that thev knew ® r ,; u a t VC , r see " him.

Thomas, who was thin and very pale, acted as spokesman, and in formed him that they had a few days before escaped from a Federal prison at Springfield, and that they were on their way South. They had heard of him, and knowing that he was well provided with such things, came xo him for horses, clothing and arms. They professed to be able and willing to pay when they reached home, and promised to send him the money. Burton replied that he had no more sympa thy for a Southerner than for a Northern man, and that IIE HAD NO FRIENDS. He murdered and robbed both sids, and did not projwise to assist any one. The men urged that they were perishing with the cloth ing they had on, and would either freeze or starve to death if he did not assist them. Burton said lie could furnish them with an easier death, and thought he had better kill them and put them .out of their trouble. Looking at Thomas' emaciated figure and white face, he added, with horrible humor, that the skeleton could not live long, any way, and might as well be hustled out of the world at once. The two men, whose teeth were chattering with fear and cold, but who dared uot approach the lire without permission, stood in silence while he munched hi3 breakfast and uttered his ghastly jokes. He at last finished his meal, and, pick ing up his rifle, placed it across his knees as he seated himself in front of the fire, and gave" them permis sion to approach. They drew up chairs and seated themselves on each side of him, and again urged him to give them horses and arms, saying that it could afford him no gratification to KILL TWO MISERABLE DEVILS like them, and that they would be forever grateful to him for assists anca Burton told them to stop their folk and he would let them know what he would do with them after he had smoked a pipe. Draw ing bis pipe from his pocket, he slowly whittled some tobacco from a hard twist and filled the bowl. Thomas, who was at his right hand, reached out, and, raising the heavy iron poker in his hand, poked an ember out of the fire for him to light his pipe with. Burton stoop ed down to put it in the bowl, when Thomas, with thespringof a panther, gained his feet and dealt the ruffian a fearful blow across the back of his Lead with the poker. Jlis companion at the same instant gras ped the muzzle of the rifle and snatched it from his lap. Burton pitched forward on the hearth, but, although stunned, still endeavored to clutch at his rifle-stock. Thomas had no intention of allowing his ado Vantage to slib from him, and, to speak of his adventure, and shudders involuntarily when the subject is alluded to.

Plant Trees.—Every man who owns a piece of laud should plant trees along the lanes. It is due to his children who are to come after him. It is a beautiful custom in Germany to set one fruit tree for every child bora. This is special property of the child for wliome it is set out. He protects and cultivates it, and as he grows up he looks upon his tree os a twin brother. A feeling of affection and veneration is thus engendered, and love for hor- ticultur fostered and promoted among the whole population.—Ex. Core alio on Flams. I have seen various methods for keeping these insects off plum trees, but none so simple, nor yet so effec tual as the folia wing:—Soak corns cobs in sweetened water until thoroughly saturated, then suspend them to the limbs ot the trees a lit tle while after blos;oming, being sure to burn the cobs after the fruit ripens, as they will be found full of young insects. A good plan is to change the cobs every few weeks. My theory is this:—that the insects deposit their eggs in the cobs in preference to doing so in the young plums. Tho first season I tried it upon one or two only, and in the summer was rewarded by a good crop of as fine plums as ever ripen ed, while those on the other trees fell off when about ball grown. Next spring found sweetened corn cobs dangling from the limbs of all ray plum trees, and the summer found them fall of delicious fruit. I have never known it to fail, and I hope every one who has a plam tree will tiy it There is one happy man in Indiana.

An Illustrated Monthly Journal claimed 10 be the handsomest Paper in the World. 11 Give my love to the artist workmen of TUB .4 LIUS’B who are striving to .make their profes sion worthv of admiration for beauty, as it la-' al ways been for usefulness.”—Henry Ward Beecher. rpHE ALDINE, while issued with JL all the regularity, has none of the temporary or timely interest characteristic of ordinary period icals. ft is an elegant miscellany of pure, light, and graceful literature, and a collection of pictures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in block and white. Although each succeeding number affords afresh pleasure to its friends, tha real value and beauty of The Aldine will be most appreciated af< ter it has been bound up at the dose of the year.— While otherpublic publications may claim superior cheapness as compared with rivalsof a similar class, The Aldine is a unique aud original conception— alone and unapproached—absolutely without com petition in price or character. The possessor of the volume just completed cannot duplicate the quan tity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape or number of volume* for Un Urn** iU cent. The labor of getting The Aldine ready on the press is so great that reprinting is out of the ques tion. With the exception of a small number spe cially reserved for binding, the edition of 1871. is already exhausted, aud it is now a scarce as well as valuable book. NEW FEATURES FOR 1872. ART DEPAr.TMEXT. The enthusiastic support so readily accorded to their enterprise, wherever it has been introduced, has convinced tha publishers of The Aldine of the soundness of their theory that the American pub lic would recognize and heartily support any sin cere effort to elevate the tone and standard of illus trated publication *. That so many weakly wicked sheets exist and thrive is not evidence that there market for anything better—indeed the suc cess of The Aldine from the start is direct proff of the contrary. With a population so vast, and of such varied taste, a publisher can chrxkse his pa trons, and bis paper is rather indicative of his own than of the taste of the country. As a guarantee of the excellence of this department, the publish ers would beg to announce during the coming year* specimens from the following eminent American artists: W. T. Richards, Granville Perkins, James Smiley, Ifm. liart, F. O. C. I»ar!ey R. E. Pig net, Win. Beard, Victor Nehlig, Frank Beard, GeorgeSmiley, Wm. H. Wilcox, Paul Pixcn. Aug. Will, James H. Beard, J. Hows. These picture* are being reprtxlueed without re gard to expense by the very best engravers in the country, and will bear the severest critical compar ison with the best foreign work, it being the deter- mination of the publishers that The Aldine shall b*4}uccessful vindication of American taste in conlBetition with any existing publication in the world. LITERARY DEPARTMENT, so much is paid to illustration and get up of the work, too much dependence on appearance* way very naturally he feared. To anticipate such misgivings, it i* only necessary to state that the editorial management of The Aldine has been in trusted to Mr. RICHARD HENRY STODDARD, who has received assurances of assistance from a host of the most popular writers and poets of the country. THE VOLUME FOR 1872 will contain nearly 300 pages, and about 250 fine engravings. Commencing with the number for Tanuary, every third number will contain a Iteau- tiful tinted picture on plate paper, inserted as a frontispiece. The Christmas number for 1872 will be a splendid volume in itself, containing fifty engravings (four in tint) and, although retailed at $1, will he sent ithout extra charge to all yearly subscribers.
