can Of the 7th
Yesterday, information was received in the city
Of the arrest OF two men and the recovery Of poT-
tion, and perhaps the whole of the money stolen
from the vault Of MessIs. Nisbet & Co., two weeks
since. The circumstances, so far we have
been able 10 gather them, may be thus stated.
AbouIa week ago, information was received
by telegraph, Of two men being in Berlin, small
town between Springfield and Jacksonville, Ill
under suspicious circumstances. There, they
bought a wagon for which they paid an extraya.
CANT price, and made other displays Of their mon
ey, which led TO the suspicion that they were the
robbers OF Nisbet q Co. They put their horses 70
the wagon, and passed through Springfield towards
The Wabash.
Upon the reception ofIhis intelligence, Mr. Coz.
Gems, OF the police, and Mr. Foster started IA pur
suit Of them. Mr.. Spolswood, who had special
deposit Of $500 with the house, accompanied
them. They pursued them and overlook them
thirty miles below Teue Haute, and there arrested
them. MIR Cozzens got possession OF the saddle
bags containing the coin, and large roll Of paper
money. Ii seems that the robbers confessed the
commission OF the burglary and robbery, and that
the gold OF Mr.. Spottswood was 10 the ssddle-bags
untouched.
They were handeuffed together and taken 10 the
stage line, and with the officers started directly
for this city. AT the stand ia Bingham county
| when the horses were changed about midnight
Foster and Spotswood got out and went into TIT
house, leaving Cozzens in the stage with the pris
oners, supposing him 10 be awake. few min
uies afterwards, the thieves made their escape.
The people of the neighboIhood TUNED out, ana
al al last trace Of them, they were still handeufi
ed to each other, il is hardly probable that the!
could have made their escape.
p. s. There was report at the police Office lat
yesterday evening, that the robbers had been ar
rested again and were on their way TO the city
We do not fnow how much reliance there is il

The Richmond (Ky.) Chronicle, Of Thursday,

On Monday last Mai. S. Turner, a candidate for
the Convention, addressed the people, giving them
his views as TO the reforms which he thinks are
needed In the new constitution. We understand
he took ground tor engraftng the principle OF the
law of 1899 In the new constitution, against einan-
cipation in favor of electing great many officers
BY the people, and favored biennial sessions OF the
Legislature. .s ~ -ElgE
