The means by which this party escaped
from Paris are not yet known.
After the Royal Family left the Tuileries
not haitian hour elapsed before the people
had full possession oft, and for an hour or
two all sorts of violence and pillage went on
every nook and corner explored; papers were
thrown into the court and burnt; dresses
were thrown from the windows and carried
AWAY; the wine cellar was broken open, and
the choicest wines were drank in The court
like water and all was confusion, uproar and
madness. A single hour, however, served TO
correct all this. The people of themselves
formed guard to protect the properly, and
they stood sentry over it with placard on
their guns. which gave due notice that "Rob-
bers would be put to DEATH" law which for
several days was actually put in execution
throughout Paris.
1t is just to say that, with respect to prop
erty, and indeed all private rights, the French
peOple behaved most nobly---most generous
" in their hour of triumph: and doubt if
there is a nation on earth where,i i'm tho midst
of successful Revolution, so much honesty
and pride would be manifested with regard

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.

An outrageous highway robbery and at
tempt TO murder was perpetrated on Saturday
might last, between the village of Coch
situate and NaticlS, 10y two Irishmen, brothers
named james and William Riley. The fact:
cofthe case are us follows:
Early on Saturday evening, Mr. Josiah
~Childs Gnrmer ofNalck, was employed by
the two Rileys to transport their luggage from
the Railroad Depot in NaucI to the village
ofCochituate. whittier they were going with
their families to take up their abode. MIR
Childs went with his eam,delivered his load,
and was on his return 10 Natick and when
within mile or so his house, was nssail-
ed and beaten, and left by the rond side, as
his assailants must have supposed, for dead.
He was discovered accidentally about III o.
clock at night, Iying,in perfectly insensibe
condition. weltering in his blood, several Sc
we're wounds having been inflicted OH his head
apparently with n club. He was conveyed
TO his house, where he remains in danger
ols state, although il is not improbable that
he may recover.
Suspicion having Immediately rested upon
the Rlleys, they were arrested on Sunday
morning, and examined before Justice Ad.
ans, at Natick. They both stoutly denied IL
ny knowledge of the transaction; but the ex-
animation ELECTED the clearest proof of their
guilt.
Upon one ofthem was found pocket book
which has been identified as Mr. Childs, and
also about Is dollars in bank bills, some of
which were identified by individuals as hay
ing been paid TO Mr. Childs. This was about
half The amount of money which Mr. Chiids
iS known to have had about him-a fact which
renders it Improbable that the murderous viii
alns had made an equal division of their
spoils. Upon the same man was found pis-
toll F-
The other man is supposed to have swall-
owed his share of the booty; and an attempt
"as made, by giving him an EN- etic,to ascer-
tain the fact, but without avail The proba-
hllity is, that when these Iri shmen paid Mr.
ChlIdS for The service he had done for them,
he exposed to them the money in his pocket
book, and that they were tempted to follow
and waylay and even murder him, for SO
small an amount of gain. They were fully
committed to Jail at East Cambridge for trial.
