of PeaChom in the same State, q package Of
bills amounting to S3,9OO to be delivered to
MsSSrs. Emerson. Lamb & Harvey Of this city.
Morrison is small manufactures Of fiannels
n PeaCham, where he has resided for the last
fye or six years, and has borne an uniformly
good character He has been considered We
ry industrious and honest man, and in every res.
pect worthy of trust and confidence
The cashier wrote by mail to his correSpon-
dents in this city that he had sent the money by
this Morrison, who was travelling in two horse
Wagon with a load of 1annels, and would not
probably reach Boston till Saturday. His non
arrival on that day of course created no sur
prise, as the extreme heat Of the weather. and
thousand circumstances incident to a travel
Ter, might have delayed him. On Monday some
little apprehension was excited by his continu-
ed absence, and early the next morning one of
the firm commenced a search for the missing
money and Morrison. After a number of in
iurleS he ascertained the name of the mer-
Cndnt 10 whom Morrison was in the habit of

landlord, It appeared that this man had told
Illn ne had large sum Of money for Messrs.
