CITY INTELLIGENCE.

a Daring Robbery in Baltimore County,
About two weeks ago valuable Watchdog
was dccoyGd from the residence of Col. John
Berry, about three miles from the city. In
consequence OF the numerous robberles com
United in the neighbo7hood, and under the sup
position that the dog had been taken by the
depredators, the Colonel placed his dwelling IN
a state OF defence by putting sprng-guns to his
doors; so that, had they made another attempt,
they could not have escaped detection. Fear
ING that they might steal his carriage harness
Crem his stables which are some distance
from his house-Col. b. took the precaution TO
have them removed at night to his house. He
intended to place SPRING gun at his stables on
the night OF the 23d but owing to his being
disappointed by the gunsmlth, it was negl ected.
On the same night the burglars approached the
back of the farm, entered the stable by opening
4 window, ana stole therefrom a valuable
horse, harnessed him to buggy, and escaped
through the farm of the Aims House. About
dav-break next morning the Colonel was ap-
prized of the IobaUry, aud started with two Of
his neighbors, Mr.. John Slack and Mr.. John
Wright, in pursuit Of the robbers. The stolen
horse having on shoes of peculiar shape, they
were enabled to track the thieves on the Win
sor Mill road to the Liberty road, leading into
the Reisterstown Turnpike towards the city.
When they arrived on the turnpike, they found
by the tracks that the robbers had turned up
the road, and in pursuing them about a mile
further, the track was again discovered in front
of MIR. Hammet's house, where, at IL o'clock
at night they had stopped and were about to
rob his house, but were put to flight by Mr.. II.
| appearing with pistol IN hand, but before he
could get fair shot at them, they fled to the
| buggy aud made their escape. The pursuit
was then up to tho second gate, through which
/ it was asc2Itained they had passed about one
| O'Clock at night, and no doubt were making
( for PennSyIvanla or the vest. Tho robbers
were then about twelve hours ahead, and Mr.
I Slack with one o! the party continued on, and
! had them described TO hun at the various gates
and taverns on tho road up to Hanover
through which town he passed in the night -
! They having inquired the way to Carlisle, he
supposed they had made for that place, anc
/ pursued his course to Carlisle hut on his arri-
/ val there, no found they had eluded him. He
then returned to Hanover, and there learned
that they had taken the road to Gettysburg, or
, their way. as he supposed, to Pttsburg. Find
ing it impossible 70 obtain flesh horse, he be
img stranger in that county, he was compelled
to place the pursuit In the hands OF Pennsyl
