Thursday night about O'Clock the grocery Of
Thomas Troy on the corner Of Hubbard and
Desp!aines street, in the West Division, was
entered by burglars. Mr. Troy. whose tene-

tions. He saw one man On the watch at the
outer door, and d man and boy at work ran
sacking thu store. He at oncs made at the lat
ter parties but Was met By the man in the store,
whom be represents as being atont and heavy,
aud who struck him powerful blow upon the
forehead with what since proves to BE- large
cold ehisel. The williams design must haye
been murder, as be struck Mr.. Troy two eere:c
blows after he fell. From the first blow, which
laid open the forehead in fearful manner, Mr.
Twas knocked s:nseless. The scoundEels then
hastily retired, wheu persons came to LII. It's
