Bold ROBBERY AT WASHINGTON, PA,
Some gentry of the thieYing profess
sion made an attempt, on Sunday night
last, to carry off all the funds of Wash
ington county, Pa. Forcing an en-
trance into the Treasurer's office, they
blew open the door of large safe
standing in it, expecting to find therein
large sum of money. They were con-
siderably disappointed, however, OBJ
tanning only three or four hundred dol
lars, which happened to be lying in one
Of tho outer compartments of the safe.
The mnin portion of the funds in his
possession, the Treasurer had deposited,
ON the Saturday evening previous, in
the Franklin B ank, and either discov-
ering the absence of these or becoming
alarmed at the report of the charge Of
powder placed in the keyhOle OF the
safe, the burglars decamped, leaving
their tools behind them.
Some of tho windows of the building
were shattered by the concussion, but,
strange to say, no one in the vicinity
heard it, and the state of affairs was
not discovered until Monday morning.
No trace of the parties engaged has been
brought to light.

Squire JoHNsoN's OFFICE.-SeVeral
state cases were brought before Justice
y Jollnson,7 yesterday morning. Joseph
GOmmlck, who had been connected
with jim my Hampton in the retail Ii
quor business, was arraigned on a
charge of obtaining goods under false
pretences from @. L. Zane & Co., to the
amount of 1890.
II was tolerably clear, from the evi.
dence in the case, that Gommick had
obtained the goods by representing
himself as in partnership with Jimmy
Hampton, alsothat his statement in tho
matter was false. Justice johnson,
therefore, held him to bail in the sum
of 81, 900 for his appearance at the next
term of the Circuit Court. ~ ct
Another case was that Of GillianIA.
Peck against Michael Donnelly, for
making all sorts of violent threats
against tho person of Gillian. The suit
was dismissed at complainant's costs.
~ Still another case was the State of
West Virginia against Patrick Quinlan
for assaIllt and Battery. When il was
called the prosecutor appeared, bent
upon sending Pat. up for trial. He
Thought better of it, however in little
while, and concluded it would be best
to drop the thing, provided Pat. would
pay the costs and hand over to him n
small sum by way of consideration for
the injuries received and the time lost
in cOnseluence.1 The matter was satis-
ffactOrily arranged, and both complain
ant and defendant departed.
