STATES EvIDENCE.-A story is told of
George White, a notorious thief in Wor-

gang, which was laying contributions upon
all the stables round about. Many in

dogged silence. An assurance from the
Court was at last obtained, that he should
be discharged, upon which he made oath
to reveal all be knew of his accomplces.

called upon for the promised revelations.

mindful of their recent difficulties with Paraguay
