TnE RoDnsRr or Mr.. WIN. WHITE OF MEApsyrLr. Hal.
rAH Co.. AT ruE U. 5. norEL, rms CirY.-It will be
ecoIlcced that in former number OF this paper we pub
shed an account of robbery committed upon this gen
emau, at the United States Hotel in this city, We were
led to entertain some doubt respecting tho rih of that
robbery under the peculiar circumstances attending it,
Subsequent inquiries however, satisfied that the rob
berry was committed and Of this fact, we became more
fully assured from the aiering testimonies given by sew
era merchants OF high standing in this city, regard to
the character OF Mr. White.
We published notice in our daily paper soon after
this occurrence, vudicatng Mr. White from what he con-
