diIligent and protracted search, in find
ing and arresting Jack Rush, one of
the parties charged with the robbery of
Connolly, at the Shamrock saloon on
Wednesday.
He lodged the officers all the after

tracked to private house on the corner
of Sixth and Main streets, where he had
taken lodgings about an hour before the
officers arrived.
Hughes, whose case we mentioned
yesterday, gave bail yesterday morning,
and is now at large.
Other evidence besides Connelly's, has
been discovered, which changes some

seems to confirm the fact of the rob

There is still another party implica-
ted, who has, up to the present, eluded

WASHINGTON, October 1.-The .. S

rebellion commenced, on Monday next
It's principal business will be the adiudi-
cation of many cases under the confsca-
ton act, as preliminary to the sale OF
rebel estates.
The public statement that the said
property is to be sold on the above men,

Although the blockade of Alexandria
has been nominally made, the restriction
of the pass system materially initiated
against the trade and importation.
As there seems to be a misapprehen-
sion about prize monies, it may be prop

Department to the 4th Auditor of the
Treasury, who makes the distribution.
1t has been enormously published in
the newspapers, that only 100000 had
been allowed to the captors
The first official report made to Con-
gress in February last, states the
amount ordered to be distributed to be
$1,769,000
The suspension of the Kickapoo treaty

The BANNER CoUNTY.-The surprise
produced at Indianapolis by the report
from the Collector of the Sanitary Com
mission in this city was amusing, and
took the authorities there all aback.
General Blythe, Colonel Hornbrook, and
other citizens, who were at the State
capital, and had left home before the re-
port was made up, had predicted to the
officers of the Commission at Indiana
polls that our city and county would give
literally, and had named $4,000 and ST.
500 as the probable amount that would
be raised here. They were regarded as
boosters; but when the first remittance
of $4,000 was received, the wonder was
not confined alone to the denizens of the
State capital. Even our own citizens
were astonished, and, of course, overjoy-
ed. Leading men there frankly confess
ed that snch sum could not be raised
for the purpose in Indianapolis
By the way, Colonel Hornbrook in
forms US that the package sent over and
marked $1,000 really contained So, l46,
for which amount he obtained the receipt
of the Treasurer.
Evansville and Vanderburgh county
, have thus borne off the palm for munif
cent hberality and practical patriotism
and are the banner county and city OF
the State. Thirty-six hundred dollars fol
the benefit of the soldiers! 1t is a re
cord of which we may well be proud.
