XORBTOIC

WHO WERE THE FOOLS t—Acoording to &correspondent,
on M.oulay thisquiet little village was thrown into a state
of excitement by the appearance, at a little shop, of the
aupposed munlerers of Policeman Cox. It seems that
three men in • cart pulled up at this eatabliathinent and
putchased some bread and cheese. The suspicions of the
shopkeeper were at once aroused, surely theme were the
inurderdena and whilst they were being supplied and
held in converiation a ine,senger was despatchod for the
village policeman. 'Before he arrived, however, the men
had driven off. The assistance or some half-dozen men of
the village was then secured, and led by the active P.C.
they gave chase, but on overtaking the cart, they found
the occupants were neighbours. Perhaps it would not be
wise for the three gentlemen above referred to, to try a
similar crueade.
