some worthless scamps, who We're running
their horses at railroad speed through our
principal streets. When near the corner Of
Illinois street and Market rquare. oie of
their carriages knocked down and run over
boy named DAVIS, aged about twelve
years, who was taken up considerably in
jure1. They then tried to cvade arrest, by
running their horses in different directions
but they We're pursued by an infuriatea
populacc, and after much trouble, arrested
and lodged in jail. They will have an ex-
animation before Magistrate Swander, this
morning ng.-islancier and dyg,es.
We trust those scamps will be properly
attended to by the legal powers in Rock Is

reprehensible and should meet with prompt
and severe correction Since writing the
above, we learn that two of the parties
arrested were fned $50 each. Served them
right.
