Tar and Feathers.

We published last week an account from the
Ashtabula Senfinel, of the attempt to tar and
feather a Mr.. Orange Ball, of Orwell, in Bristol,
on Saturday, the 18th nit. An examination of
the matter took place before Azor Abel, Esq,
on Thursday last. Itappears that Joseph Ball,
a very infirm old man, had for some cause left
his wife, a much younger woman, with whom
he had lived in Bristol six or seven years. and
had gone to his brothers. at Orwell. A son of
Josephis, by a former marriage, sent to Orange
Ball a power of Attorney to take possession of
the land, household goods, and personal proper
u Of every description, claiming them as the
property of the son. On this errand Orange Ball
went to Bristol, where Mrs. Joseph Ball was still
residing, and with his daughter took up his quar-
tiers in the house. waiting an opportunity to dis
posses, his sisser-in-law
The people of the town very generally sympa-
thized with the woman, but no trouble was made
On the night of the 18th, however, Orange Ball
was taken in the manner described last week,
and the outrage attempted. He testified that as
the door was opened, the light fell on the face Of
q single person whom he recognized as Heman
Hammond; and he thought he knew the voice of
another as tlato S. D. Adams, whilst his daugh-
ter swore that the light fell on the face of a sin
gle Individual whom she recognized as Jacob
Morton. All these three. gentlemen are among
the first citizens of Bristol, and the latter twoare
leading members in the church there. Their
previous unimpeachable character, and the fact
that they all offer strong proof tending to show
themselves to have been at home and in bed at
the time of the occurrence, has produced a strong
belief on the part of mostof the community, that
the suspicious of Mr.. Orange Ball have fallen
upon the wrong persons. Two others, beside
those above named, were arrested but discharg-
ed; the three we have named, are bound over to
answer to the Probate Court.
Since the above was in type, We have received
TIE proceedings of a meeting of citizens of Bris-
tel, relative to the subject, but too late for inser-
ton in this paper.
