just behind, exclaimed, q sHurrah for the Dew

i BURGLSRY IN RAvENNX. Upon the night
amile east of Ravenna village, was entered
and $3.50 in money stolen. Mr. Price has not
been in the habit of locking his house at
night Itwas entered at the kitchen door
The thief passed through the kitchen and
entered the sitting room. Upon the stand in
that room, was small secretary or writing
case. Upon this were some books These
were put upon the floor. The secretary was
taken into the yard and there by the light of
matches Its contents eXa mined. $50 of the
money was in sgreenbaczs," and.the balance
in 5-2oU o. S. bonds. The latter belonged to the
following parties $21O, VIM. Price. S13o,
Lieut.. Ed. Belding-of Cotter's Battery
$50, Albert Price, of the 42d O. v L The
$50 in greenbacks belonged to Lieut.. H., C.
Jennings who resides in the family of Mr.
Price-while recovering from his wounds.-I
There was $1O0 in an envelope in the secre-
tary, which was not discovered None of the
papers in the secretary are missing The
knowledge thatthis money was where it was
oupd, was known only to portion of the
family, and how the thief could march so di- |
rect to this secretary and, possess himself of
its valuables, is mysterious. Noother part of /
the house was entered or inspected. The
robber seemed to know right where to go, and
must have been some one familiar with the
premises. or person possessing the remarka-
BILE faculty of second sight" For two or
three nights previous to the robbery the dog
attached to the premises, seemed to be great
ly disturbed toward morning, but on this
night had got accidentally shut into the Gel
lar. Mrs. Belding, mother of Mrs. Price,
heard some oneinl the rooml between twelve
and three O'Clock, but supposing it to be some
Of the family, made no alarm. Suspicion is
directed to no particular quarter. This rob-
berry and the late one in, Edinburg establishes
the theory that there are bold and adroit
thieves in this vicinity Neither of these
were committed by foreign or stroll
ing rogues it is presumed.
