dwellers in ilettcheil houses, and will teach them, we
hope, to keep a dog inside the house, as one outside is
often fount of no u-e. No. 5, Llnilailowneiterreoe, is
the residence of Mrs. Coacher, and her mother,
Mrs. Clifton. and the ladies bed a large watch-dog out-
ride their house, and this animal is generally set bark-
ing furiously ler the slightest noise About one o'clock
on Thuradty morning, the inmates heard a noire like
the railing of • wind iw atsh, bet their dog gave no
tongue, and they suppoessi the sound came from the
other Louse. In the morning a quantity of plate was
found scattered about one ef the room., incledine •
large silver thsh, • cao bsaket.eiveral spoons, a teapot,
wetter, and sugar bongs. All this bad evidently been
merkad to be carried off, but the thieves must have been
disturbed. On searching further, it was fiord that the
following property was gone ::--One.seall coffee urn
holding not quite a quart; three silver spoon., one with
an eagle's head crest and two market with • grn's
bead and an arrow ; about two or three p•irs of linen
sheets, marked "Clifton,' with various dates. in black

marked " eotich,-r ;" • ptir of aide spring boot., nearly
new; and two green btu, bags. Th-y had also helped
themselves to provisions. The police made enquiries,.
and found that two young men had wine into the town
on Wednesday tifternoon, and taken lodgings at the
Forehead Arms. They wanted change if • sovereign,
but the landlady refused to give it them, and their
general appearance aroused great suspicion. Instead of
going to bed that night, they had half-a-pint of rum in
s bottle, and went out about halt-past 12, and did not
retort, to this house. Tee next trace of them is at Mr.
Haler's, in Park-street. where they bad their break-
fast early in the morning, and afterwards left town by
the Dorchester road, and were seen passing Monekton-
gate at a rapil paws, apparently ii catch the 9 13 train.
They were too late, and afterward, left for Kertisham.
Supt. Vickery lef; for Dorchester by the 12 20, and
telsgrapbe Ito Keynsham. About eleven o'clock on
Friday mining • green title* bag was found in a field
of Mr. Wadsworth's, on the Dorchester road. The nag
-was taken out of the ditch where it lay, and was fount
to contain • headmen's milk dress, a moire antique dress,
scarlet opera cloak, pair of boots, and a quantity of
children's elotking. This was soon found to be part of
the property ineteng, but the plate and sheet. were not
found. Supt. Viskery left that eveniog for Bristol.
and hoped to catch the sutpected men. They had
stated that they circle from Bsistol, and one goes by the
niture rif Bill sail the other Jim They wore dressed
in black bowler bats, blue retries jackets, and dark
trousers, an about 5 ft. 6 in. high, of light complexion,
