HoRRInLE ATTEMPT AT RoBpnnY AND
MURpEn.--ONe If the most daring and
desperate attempts we ever heard Of wns
made at the muse Of Mr.. John Fox, Of
Fast Norwalk, on Thursday evening the
2sth ult., nj about quarter before nine.
The only members of the family at home,
were Mr.. and Mrs Fox and their eldest
daughter, Miss Caroline Fox
A man masked OF disguised::as negro,
entered the house and rushing upon Mr..
Fox with two large butcher knives, de-
mandcd his money. He mistaking the
knives for pistols, stepped behind par.
tition against which he was standing and
thereby syaded the blow; one knife stri-
king obliqucly over the left eye, made a
slight inciSion. At this inomcn, III.
daughter Selling chair, rushed uron the
assassin, dealing him several blows on The
head and arms. Daring the a.iray, Mrs.
Fox received one blow upon the head and
another upon the arm, by knife. The
daughter was also badly wounded by the
knife passing cntirely through the arm,
between the hand aud the elbow, notwilh-
standing which she maintained wonder
full presence Of mind, and with heroic
courage continued TO ply the chair to the
ruihan' back until he was forced to make
his retreat at the door, leaving his weap-
ons behind
After securing the door, Mrs. Fox and
her daughter wcli, 20 the chamber sin
dows, and called loudly for hsir. upon
which several Of the ncighbors cane to
their assistance. Search being made. a
dark lantern was found near the house
containing candies, matches, Sc, intcn-
ded no doubt, 10 aid in plundcring the
house after the murder Of is inmates
Mr. Fox being very much ont of health
and unable 10 defend him self IN the leas,
must "f necessity have been instantly
killed had it No, been fer the daring IN
trepidi,y ofthe daughter
BY the Vigilance Of those engaged il
trying " detect the assassin, it IL bored
that he will soon be discovered. Two
men were arrested On Saturday, suspect
ed of the crime, and are undergoing an
cxaminaiion.-[HuroI Mass Reflector.
