Mr. C. Emanuel had left the dwoIing-house soon
after dark and proceeded TO the store, soon after
which he went to his room and prepared to retire,
when he heard some one knockins-at the front
when two persons stepped in and asked for some
crackers He told them he had the required ar
ticle, and closed the door. While ho was waiting
upon these mon, one of them said he had loft his
saddle-bags in the piazza, and went to the door,
unlocked It and went oub and soon afterward re-
turned, followed BY another Of the party, and
while he was again waiting upon the other

captured andpmished to4he extent Of the law
Our country is unsafe while such marauders are
prowling at large throughout the country, seeking
to destroy our property and even our lives. Let
no time be lost until every man is safely in the
lookup, and where they will meet their lust re-
ward. -Bennetlsulle Herald.
