wards disposed of in Bridgeport and got
away. The same man tive have no doubt)
under the name Off. P. Parker, tried to
play the same game in Pittsburgh on Sat-
urday. He proceeded there precisely as
he proceeded here only upon larger
scale. He first bought brown paper at a
notion store and then bought two lots of
CUTLERY at two different hardware
stores directing both lots TO be sent to the
stationery store to be packed. He after
wards went back to the stationery store
and finding the two packages of CUTLERY,
remarked as he did here, that he had di-
rected the packages to be sent elsewhere
and taking them under his arm walked of.
He then went to another hardware store
and tried to sell the whole lot for less
than its value and was at once suspected
and the police were set upon his track.
After search of several hours he was
found in an out of the way tavern and ar
rested. At the Mayors Office he was dog
gedly insOlent, protested that he was an
honest man, desired to know for what he
was arrested, and refused to answer cues
lions, as to the place of his residence, &c,
even hesitatiug to give his name. He was
searched much against his will, and on his
person there were found half dozen ra-
zOrs, half "a dozen scissors, and three very
fine pocket knives.
The accused is man of more than mr..
binary intelligence, and of pleasant ad-
dress, although his demeanor while under
arrest was much against him. As he
passed out of the Mayors office, the officer
linked arms with him, and after walking a
few steps be suddenly released his arm,

"IkuOw what you are; you're - thief, y
aud seiziug him by the shoulder, conveyed
him to prison, struggling much after the
fashion OF man striving to go particu-
lardirection and being forced in contrary
one.
This fellow is evidently an old confidence
man, and appears to be perfectly familiar
with the way merchants do business. He
must have been very short of funds to have
attempted to sell the two lots of cutlery SC
soon after no had succeeded in getting
them.
