in Williamson County and all tiOll in Franklin

but Miller is 5000 ahead with ess than third of the
State to hear from. We think he lie out of danger.
This is the first time those who had the advantage Of
the Democratic name have been beaten on a State
candidate in Illinois since the State admitted
less the election Of Gen. Duncan as Governor some
fifteen years ago may be considered an exception.
<gisl1ture.-There ia no doubt Of a Republican"
or Fusion majority in the House, though the papers
difIe~ widely in their count. OF the Senators who
hold over l ten were chosen as Democrats, but five
of these are claimed as AntDougias and in part
Fusionists This is disputed on the other side. The
Douglas Times at Chicago claims FIVE Of the newly
elected Senators to eight Fusion, securing Doug
las majority IN the Upper House, where the Fusion
bulletins claim II ADti-Nebraska certain out Of
IS in all. We do not attempt to reconcile or decide
between these conflicting claims.
The House is admitted to be Fusion. The bulletins
of that side claim ~ to of the Members returned
80 bong majority of the whole House. The Doug
las organ comedies sc Fusionists to IS Democrats
elected with more Fusionists to come in, securing
a majority of FIVE to that side. We presume II will
be ten at least, and that Anti Nebraska L. 5.
Senator will be chosen.

George Bliss, the sheriff of this county, deserves
greet credit for his in having promptly ar
rested the men who robbed the Windham Bank, at
Windbam, Conn. last Friday night, the particulars
of which were published on Saturday in Geographic
dispatch from Hartford. Mr.. Bliss appears to have
suspected party of four men who were hanging
about the steamboat wharf at Albyn's Point, last
night just previous the departure Of the boat for
New-York and arrested them just az they went on
board On searching their luggage, twenty thousand
of the twenty two thousand dollars stolen found,
and it s probable that the balance will be recovered
as it is supposed have been secreted the wharf
or on board the steamer. The robbers have been
safely lodged in jail at this place. We have not
learned their names, but they are said TO have the
appearance of genteel and finished scOundres.

ConMERclAL AGENCY U. s. A.,

San Juan del Norte, Nicaragua.
BY this public instrument Of protest, be 1t
known unto all men, that on this 18th day OF
May, A. d. 1854, personally appeared Joseph
N. Scott, agent Of the Accessory Transit Com
pany Of Nicaragua, who, being duly sworn, did
solemnly depose, and say, that on the evening
OF Friday, 9th instant, at or about the hour OF
III p. m. William Creighton, mate Of the steam.
er II. l.. Bulwer," belonging to the aforesaid
Transit Company, being at that time at the
said companys station at Point Arenas, did
observe four men in the act Of loading yawl
boat, belonging to the said company, with
merchandise, and suspecting something wrong
IN consequence Of the lateness Of the hour, did
thereupon notify the deponent OF the fact. The
said Creighton recognised the aforesaid men
as Robert Reed, j. Magraw, and two others ;
names unknown, but all at the time, or pre-.
viously, employees Of The said company. The
deponent Immediately proceed to the spot, but
the boat was at some distance from the beach
at the time Of his arrival He hailed the boat,
calling upon the said Reed by name, 10 come
back. The parties in the boat made no reply,
although they were within easy bailing distance,
and their voices we're heard from the shore APP
parently exhorting one another to push on.
de, the deponent, finding that no attention
was paid by the men in the boat to his COM
mand, at once dispatched q second boat,
manned by William Creighton, Robert Bulls,
and William Soman, all employees OF the said
Transit Company, in pursuit.
The boat that first left the aforesaid Point
Arenas shaped her course for the city OF San
Juan del Norte, and, arriving there before the
second boat, portion Of the men succeeded in
leaving her before the pursuers reached the
spot. One man, the aforesaid Reed, was
found in the boat, and while resisting the at
tempts OF the aforesaid Sloman 10 secure him,
he was struck upon the head by the said Slo-
man.
The said Sloman, after knocking the man
Reed into the water, attempted to shove the
boat off shore and, while in the act OF so do.
ing, the soldiers from the station house threat
ened to fire on him. Thus compelled, the said
Sloman returned to the shore with the boat.
In the mean time the men who had escaped
from the first boat took refuge in the station
house.
de, the deponent, doth further solemnly de.
pose and say, that the yawl-bost above describ-
ed, together with the merchandise therein, con.
sisting of -four, corn meal, &C., was the property
Of the aforesaid Transit Company, and was
stolen from the said company as above de.
scribed, and that it was in the attempt to re.
cover said property and secure the persons OF
the offenders that the above specified dihiculty
occurred.
