MALICIoUs.-The grist and saw mill of SAM

apart, cutting the belts, and sinking them in
the river, and cutting the bolts of the grist
mill. Such lawless and high-handed proceed
ings will meet the reprobation of every right
minded man, as no one is safe in the neighbor-
hood of the perpetrator of such an outrage.
