The Eastport Sentinel says that pedlar
recently driving through the town of Cooper,
was stopped by afoot-pad who presented a pis-
tol and demanded his money. The pedlar had
a little girl riding with him at the time, who,
seeing the state of affairs, crept back on the
top of the cart and dragged his overcoat up
within reach, from which he took his revolver
and disabled his man. The Sentinel also says
that boy of fifteen, living with Mrs. John
Crosby, stole trunk containing $4OO in gold
and $500 in currency and cleared for st. Ste
phen, where he was afterwards arrested. He
had hidden all but $50 of the money, however.

Heavy Failure.

The principle topic that has engrossed the
mercantile community of this city the mast
week, is the suspension of the well known firm
of Bradley, Coolidge & Rogers, one of the
heaviest corn and -four houses IN this city,
which occurred on Mondaylast. The liabilities
of the firm cannot yet be accurately ascertain
ed, they being themselves unable to make any
very definite approximation; but we regreI 10
state that they are heavy, and the worst iea-
lures are that large portion of the haDiiltles
OF the concern are "honarary," being for Dor
rowed money, chiefly among a class of our CIT
izens who cannot afford to lose the several
amounts, but a small portion of which was Sc
cured in any way.
Messrs. w. & Q. R. Milliken were the heav-
lest endorsers upon their paper, and the as
signment was made to Messrs. Miliken, who
will at present continue the business of Messrs.
Bradley, Coolidge & Rogers.
There are few houses in this city that have
enjoyed the general confidence and good wish
es of the public to q greater extent than that of
Messrs. Bradley, Coolidge & Rodgers, and none
probably that would cause deeper regret or
broader sympathies in their misfortune, hav-
ing been always characterized by their public
spirit and enterprise, and unbounded liberality
in all measures tending to promote the bust
ness interests and prosperity of the city.
There are many things that can be said in
extenuatiOn of their present circumstances,
that go far to assuage the public feeling, when
the case is viewed IN all its bearings. Proba-
bly, no house in the city has used so much eff
fort and under greater sacrifices, in competing
with other markets to draw and retain the
trade of our State within its own borders, and
in their assignment they have made clean
breast" of everything, sparing no special
friends or relatives. Their liabilities outside OF
the city, we learn, are comparatively small
