Saunders, on Tuesday the 9th inst came I'D pursu.
auto order of continuance, on yesterday. Young
Davis was not present. and Madam Rumor saws.
has LETT for parts unknown. Awarrant was issued
for his apprehension. The boys father was in
Washington on business. The testimony of Messrs
Saunders, Bigger, and Allen, was taken in regard
to the matter, and of similar import to the psr
ticulars which were presented to our readers last
week One new feature alone was presented in
Mr. Saunders evidence, and that was, that AFTER
the denial of Davis in regard to having the money.
and while awaiting the return Of Mr. Allen in Mr.
Notnss store, Davis went to the rear of the store
and commenced fumbling about small closet, then
came back, and afterwards, before be went ont n
procure the money, proceeded to the back part of
the store where Mr. 8. had seen him 10 short time
previous, and then left the store, returning in
short time with the s50o. Mr. Noting did not rec.
ognize the handwriting on the back OF the draft a.
Davis writing. We would here state that this was
but preliminary hearing of the evidence; the &.
nal examination, of course, cannot take place until
young Davis is himself present.

GREAT FLooD.-The recent flood in the Mo-

Cured ON that river, the water being thirty fre
feet above the ordinary low water mark. Sew.

away near Morgan,own, in this State, together
with vast quantity oflumber. Great distress
prevailed among the inhabitants along the riv-
er; and the total amount of loss, the Mirror
says, will be very large.
