A BOLD RoBBEaY- TOenty Thousand Dollars
Stolen by Pretended Officers. One of the boldest
schemes yet invented by robbers was successfully
practiced upon d man named Bristol residing at
Lorraine Ohio, a few days ago. The Pittsburg
Dispatch gives the following particulars of the
robbery:
MIR. Bristol had baggcd a large quantity of gold
during the war, and had recently invested largely
in United States bonds, having.some twenty thous-
and dollars in bonds and gold in his house. A
few days ago party of men, pretending to he
officers in search of stolen bonds visited his house,
demanded possession of the bonds until such time
as the numbers could be examined, and coolly in
formed him that it would be necessary to take
him into custody. Mrs. Bristol and three hired men
having come in, they, too, were informed that the
course of justice required their arrest until their
connection with the property could be explained.
Handouts were produced, and Mr.. and Mrs. Bris-
tol, with the three hired men, were manacled and
ordered to sit still. The 'officers' then secured
the "stolen" bonds, and also confscated the gold
as part of the proceeds of other bonds probably
sold, and Withdrew for consultation, strictly
charging the manacled party to remain perfectly
quiet in their seats. 1t is scarcely necessary to
state that the "oflicers'' did not come back TIE
handcuffed victims waited until late at night and
then, hearing no summons to proceed to Jail, the
conviction dawned on their minds that they had
been sold at a very costly price. The alarm was
given, and the services of blacksmith secured TO
unrivet the chains, but in the meantime the rob-
bers had fled, leaving not single trace behind.

From the ST. Louis Republican, June 6.l
The st. Louis Republicans Farewell
to the General Assembly.

They have gone-thanks for the "deliverance," /"
that is one of the pet phrases Of the church,
which has found constant utterance throughout
oil the proceedings of the Old School Presby-
terian Convention in this city. We, are delivered
of them at oil events. A more pcrverse, obsti-
nate, fanatical, malignant uncharitable and I'M
christian set Of men than composed the majority
of that body never met together in this country,
and If they have done any good whatever we
have failed to see it. The truth is they aimed at
and succeeded in dissrganizing the Church to
which they profess to belong; they have not only
done that but they have been instrumental in
fomenting political as well as Church dscords,
and nigger on the brain was so fully developed
that the effect has been to turn the Church into
school where the teachings of Christ have been
lest sight Of, and the majority have became
nothing else than political propagandists of the
worst character. For abuse of large portion OF
their Church, for offensive epithets to brethren
held In high csteem as any one of them all, for
low vuigarity, for O total disregard of oil the
decencies and eourtesies Of society; they have
gone beyond any political meeting of which we
have any knowledge. More than tive weeks
were spent in wraegling, In disputatiop, in try
ing how insulting the majority Of them could be
to men just as good as tsemelves, and, withal,
better Christians, and all for political effect
Good bye TO them, We never want 10 see chem

and suspended until he ewas taken down AL
though the parts were very much Iacerated the
sight of the eye was not destroyed. The wound

We cannot suggest what is wanting TO make q

Before they had brought their Pianos to their

competition with instruments Of the best makers of
this country and Europe, and received the reward
of merit over all Others at the celebrated Worlds

thus pronounced has not been oycrruled by the mu-

Still, by the Improvements lately applied by
them to their Pianos, II is admitted that more
perfect instrument has been made. They have ac-

Bennett is the sole owner of the Herald -
The Tribune is owned by stockholders, of which
DR.. James G. Aver, of Lowell, is the heaviest;
Samuel Sinclair, the publisher, is also one of
its largest owners while Stephen T. Clark, the
writer OF the money articles, and Horace Gree
ly, are interested to large amount. The cap
ltal stock Is $8O0,000. The organization ofthe
Ir16une'Ss editorial staff is as follows: The edi-
tor r-in-chief is Horace Greeley Sidney How
ard Clay is the managing editor-the executive
head of the concern. Cool, able, corteous and
energetic, he has not his equal in the State.
Roderlck Crane is the news editor; j. H. Has
ser, the night editor; |. n. Browne, the city
editor. The financial department is under the
charge of S. T. Clarke one of the ablest of f.
nanciers. Solon Robinson edits the depart
mentOf agriculture. George Ripley, at one
time one off the most eloquent preachers in
Boston, is the literary editor. William Winter
is the theological, Henry G. Watson the musi-
cal, and Clarence Cook the art editor The
corps OF editorial writers embraces the names
of CongdOn, Smalley, Young, and Wilkinson.
A. j. Cummings edits the weekly and semi
weekly. Myron Fox reads all copy, to prevent
repetition in the paper, and ID. K. O'Don-
nell keeps the index. In addition, the Tribune
has corps of fifteen reporters, second to none
in the land. They are detailed for special duty
on the police, at fres on the dry goods mar
ket in the courts or at Brooklyn, at Jersey
City, and all along shore. The principal own
| ers of the Times are Leonard w. Jerome, Jas.
B. Taylor Henry j. Raymond, George Jones,
the publisher, and Christopher Morgan, OF
Methodist fame. During Mr. RRmond's alb
sence, +. j. Otterson formerly of the Tribune,
is the managing editor, as he is writer of su-
perior abilities World is conducted by
Manton Marble, who is the largest owner OF
the concern.-Of the younger journalists of n.
York there are several of great promise; among
them Daniel K. O'Donnell, of the Tribuae, and
Augustus Maverick, of the Evening Post. The
best editorial writer's, and each inimitablc in
his way, are George Wilkes of the Spirit of the
Times, Sidney Howard Clay and Charles I.
CongdOn of the Tribune, William H. Hurlburt
of the World, and Charles Nordhoff of the
Erening Post. The best American political
statistician living is probably Horace Greeley,
and the next best is Franklin j. Otterson, ma
naging editor of the Times, though Thomas G.
Sherman, lawyer, is perfect cyclopedia Of
political knowledge, and is very useful man
for more than one newspaper establishments
The Nation has a subscription of over seven
thousand, while the Round Table is holding
its own, in spite of the bitter criticisms it gives
and receives.-The Independent rolls up the
overwhelming list of 10000 subscribers, and
the number is daily increasing. York

AMERICAN RTFLED CANNON. In one thing
the English are forced to acknowledge Ameri-
can superiority, and that is, in the manufac.
ture of rifed cannon. The London Standard
argues that England, thus far, has met with
poor success in her attempts to manufacture
improved artillery, and that journal goes on to
say Already the Americans have made fif-
teen hundred l5-inch guns, which have been
tested to be perfectly safe for thousand rounds
with spherical shot of 44O pounds, and powder
charge of SO pounds. They have also 20-inch
guns, throwing round projectiles of 1850
pounds, with powder charge of 100 pounds.
These guns have been tested to 800 rounds. =
Two American turret ships are armed with
these 2O-inch guns, and from the nature of their
armament would be more than match for
the whole of the English iron-clad feet COM
bined" Such concession as this from an ar
dent hater of the Union, as the Stand trd has
always been, is quite significant.
