BoLD.-Some sinfully inclined individ-
ual, more careful of personal comfort and
having new clothes than of the rights of
private property of others, confiscated an
osercoat, pair of pan,aloons and shirt
from the rack in front of the establish
ment of Vencil & Jones, on Friday after
noon. Thereby are V. e. ]. losers to the
tune of some forty five dollars, which the
rascally thief can see palmer than them
selves.
