A ROBBERY was committed in the house of the

on the 28th of July last.—As he went out some dil’
tance to bis work soon after day-break, he left the
fr mt door merely latched, and (hortly after his return
found his chert, in a front lower room, forced open
and about i7§l.in gold and filventaken away, toge
ther with a Watch that hung up in the fame room.
The Watch had such particular marks, that it may
probably be traced, and may lead to a difeovery of the
Thief; it was of Pinchbeck and had been gilt, but the
gidting was almost worn off, the outward case was or
namented with two Figures or Images, a piece of the
face w: a broke at the fix o’clock, the chryftal was crack
ed quite across, nearly in the middle, the chain was
faftned to the swivel by a fere#, and the key was tied
to the chain with a thread, the maker’s name and the
number unknown. Whoever shall apprehend the thief
so that he be brought to conviction, shall have the a'
bove reward. If the Watch, alone, is restored to the
subscriber, Two Dollars will be given to the person
who brings it. SAMUEL MEADE. Aug! 3
