given by the Colored Society at Fuller's
under the hill. In obedience to a munich
pal regulation, Coz stable Nephler was on
the spot to preserve order. The tall had
not fairly got under way before a colored
gentleman presented himself who consta-
BILE Nephler, did not know and he there.
foie took him in custody to ascertain if
las he xaid) he was free. For safe keep
ing, until Monday morning the gentleman
was furni he'd apartments at the expense
OF the Parish. 1t is customary to take
from the pockets Of those going in this
public house whatever valuables they NAV
have about them, for which they can have
no use whilst there. In obedience to this |
venerable custom, "ninty odd dollars " |
were taken from the person of the col.
ored individual, besides 4 pair OF gold
spectacles and other articles. The con.
stable thought it singular, that so young
man should be provided with magnifers
and his suspicious were aroused.
Strange TO say, short time after the ar.
rest, the Hon. Treragnier, in company
with M. Guzman, lodged a complaint that
they had been robbed early in the evening
