ARRESTS FOR BARN-BURNIEG-In our Sat
urday's issue we stated that Ambrose Buck
and William Morrill,, Jr, were arrested on the
charge of burning the barn of Erwin Robinson
at East Sumner. We learn that the parties
assembled last Friday at Buckfeld village and
Buck and Morrill, were brought before JUS
tice of the Peace for hearing. But it seems
this charge against these men was too much
hurried, being made without particle of proof
to sustain it. The Justice, after hearing the
complaint, waited for the evidence, but none
came and the prisoners were discharged. There
were several witnesses summoned, but the At
torney for the Government examined them in
private; and he soon became satisfied that they
knew nothing tending to connect these men
with the crime. He did not even appear before
the Justice, as he was satisfed-and so express
ed himself that the case was clearly with the
respondents. 1t seems to us that when men
attempt to hunt barn-burners or burglars they
ought to have some evidence, either circum-
stantial or Notwithstanding beyond and
above mere suspicion-before man is arrested
for crime.

'watchmen named Langan came to the assist

was ironed and taken off, They had got to
Fore street, when his two comrades again came
up and made second attack upon the officers

would have McGlinchy or would die in the at
