Our Leighborhoud has been the scene Of several
Gets of violence for the past week, the details OF
which we give below:
A Boa,man from Tupehocken, Berks County,
named Bechel, arrived at this place in the early
part Of the week with boa, load of Wheat and
considerable amount Of money upon his person, the
proceeds Of some sales Of -four made during the
trip On Tuesday morning whilst laying in his
cabin along with one Of his hands, two men en-
tered, one with a candle and club, the other with
dirk knfe-upon enqiring the cause of this in
Tusion, The one having the knife seized him by the
throat and struck a, him with it, which proSiden-
ally passed between his ann and body, merely
grazing the skin throwing him off be sprung for
the door of his cabin and was about making his
egress when he received violent blow from the
club upon his forehead, which gashed il horribly.
The robbers then alarmed by his cries, made off as
FIST as their legs could carry them without obtain
! ing any booty he having taken the precau,ion as
soon as they entered to throw his pocket book in
corner Of the cabin behind them.
On the evening of the same day several robber.
Stores of Messrs Basi, & Co., and Mr.. ID. Saylor,
were broken open and robbed to considerable a.
mount. The Shoe Store OF Mr.. Rudy, in the
same place. was also entered and several articlee
taken from thence.
Ga the following evening three Stores were en-.
ter d in this borough. Mess. Joseph White &
Sons, Trou,nsn & 81 lymsns and William Mil

ro hers having broken off The locks and pryed III,

any great value was taken from either OF the a

That S0pgster again,

David N. Lake, is still travelling through the
county, singing and teaching others to sing. is
said that he selects the most lively songs, just as
coward whistles the loudest tunes to keep up his
courage. WhiSthng, is however, no proof of
courage, nor singing of Democracy. David will
change his tune after next Tuesday and we shall
then call upon, il not otherwise engaged to hum for
US the Dead March, or Ajeste Fidelles, airs which
will no doubt accord with his feelings. Every bo-
dy ,ha, has heard David sing, admits that he is
most excellent songs,er but they can't under stand
exactly how that qualities him for the office Of
Sheriff. IF the girls had votes, David would no
doubt get great many, for |, Is said that song
wins woman's favor sooner than almost any thing
else but unfortunately for him he has sober
thinking democrats 10 deal WITH and in their eyes
his new way Of sectioneering i'll only render him
contemptible.
