since county officer DYE went to the store of

serve writ issued by Justice Giberson, when
the latter forcibly elected the officer, for which
he was arrested by Roundsman Kelley for an
assault and battery, and held 10 bail. Rounds
man Kelly found about 20 muskets, carbines
and & sword in the store, and took possession
of them until Smith could prove how he came
by them, and had them removed to the station
Smith says that he purchased the lot in New
York, and that he had sold them TO the Fenians
and now asks the Superintendent to give him
an order for them that he may deliver them to
the purchasers. From this il would appear
that some at least Of the Fenians here are pre-
pairing for war.
