MISCELLANY.

From Bells Weekly Messenger o. March 81
A merchant who was travelling short
time since on horse back, between Sanmur
and Tours. in France, stopped at nightfall,
al an inn in little village; he oidere cd sup
per, and entered into conversation with TWO
persons OF respectable appearance, to whom
he incautiously exposed that his purse was
we'll lined. On the following morning, be
fore ii was perfectly light, he left the inn
and proceeded on his journey. He had
not gone far before he was oyertaken by his
two companions Of the preceding evening,
who acCosted him, and when they had
proceeded 10 a very solitary place, seized
and offered him his choice, whether he
would be stabbed 10 DEATH or thrown into
the river Loire. The merchant prayed
them TO spare his life, but in vain [: the rob
bers were determined, and he at length
preferred The latter alternative. The rob
bers bound him, and flung him into the riv-
er, where he soon disappeared, and they
carried off his horse and his money. In
the mean time the merchant was not dead
he was borne along the current, but he con-
trived to keep his head above water, and
at length as cay advanced, he was discov-
cred and dragged TO the shore. Not far
off Was an inn; the master OF II was at the
door, and seeing stranger in tears he tn
quired the cause. On hearing the mer-
chants story,he doubted not that the robbers
were two men who were at that NONE ut
drinking in his house. The merchant re-
cognlzrd them The gems d'armes were
summoned, and the robbers were seized al
the very moment when, believing their
victim at the bottom of the river, they were
dividing their booty. Proceedings have
been commenced against them
