Tho sympathy Of people abroad for our
"doomed city" is getting to be intense. Ev-
cry day or 30 We hear Of some new evidence
OF this fact. That intense paragraph inge-
niously condensed by some clever editor from
old Rees's sdoomsd city Of Jerusalem" arti-
ole, showing how Keokuk 10 eli busted to
smash, and how every other man il beggar
and the rest are running away, has had .
most extraordinary run. Every paper from
Maine 70 Tsxas, and from Minnesota to Flor
ida has given il place. Even the Tribune
has ventilated il, sndv are waiting anxious
~ for the next steamer, expecting TO see il
in the London 73mes.
Only few days since gentleman Of this
city received letter from his father in vir-
ginia, who WAS evidently deeply moved by
our dasress. On the top OF his letter tina,
condensed paragraph aforesaid was duly
pestsd, and underneath tho sympAshixing pa
tern&l ancestor added the following words
to-wit
"MY Sos III you are suffering for the
want Of any thing let me know ii At once.

side of Forest city, at a quarter past three
o'clock, last Monday morning, and robbed Of

Forest city at three O'Clock on Monday nsrn-
ing, with ten passengers, among whom was
Nichols. gold dust buyer at that place.
who had with him in a sack, about $4,000 in
dust. Mr.. Nichols is in the habit Of leaving
Forest city every Monday morning with bis
dust. a fact well known to every one in the
place. He had placed the sack containing the
dust under the back seat, upon which he was
sitting. When the stage arrived at the top of
the hill four men rushed ont of the bushes, al m
ed with pistols, and ordered the driver, VIM.
Wilson, TO stop, aud "pass down the box" Two
O! the robbers took their station at the hind
wheels one in front Of the horses, aud the other,
who seemed to be the leader of the gang, stood
near the driver. The passengers said nothing
and Wilson believing that resistance was use
less, handed them the mailbag, and on a sec
end demand, threw down the treasure box Of
Langton d. Co. The leader then demanded the
sack under the back seat. Wilson told him he
knew nothing about the sack, and enc OF the
gang spoke and said, ''all right" The enc who
had the driver in charge, then told him to drive
on, which he did in double-quick time. Wilson
supposed at the time, that the robbers had Sc
cured Nichols money, and did not learn to the
contrary until daylight. When the stage arriv-
ed at Cold Spring, Nichols crawled out with his
sack of dust in his hand. The leader of the
gang. when he told Wilson to drive on, evident
ly supposed his comrades had secured the gold
dust belonging to Nichols. When the stage ar
rived at Nevada Wilson telegraphed to Langton
i Co.. at Downeville. giving the particulars OF
the robbery, and received dispatch in return
announcing the gratifying intelligence that
there was no money in the treasure box.

Moore, considerable speculation has been 60
ing on, as to whether there may not have been
an error Of one or two votes in some one Of the
precincts. The Supervisors were engaged yes
terday in looking over the returns. and COM
pairing them with the tally lists, and we are in
formed that the vote as reported is found to
agree with the tally. The returns from the sew

FIRE-The boarding house connected with
the American quartz mill, took FIRE an Thurs
day night last, and the roof of the kitchen and
a portion of the dining room was destroyed
The fire caught about 10 O'Clock, and was soon
after discovered by some men in the mill, who
succeeded, almest by miracle, in putting it
out family, consisting of a man and wife,
and three or four children, were sleeping in
one Of the rooms, who were not awakened un-
ill the fire was nearly extinguished. Had the
building burned, they would inevitably have
lost their lives, as there was no means Of egre's
from their room except through the kitchen
aud they would have had to pass through the
flames to make their escape.
