BANKING IN DAVIDSON.

YEARLY $4,000 of Hidden Gold Stole,,
from P,iuy-.4rrest of Black Ser
pants for Arson aad Larceny IA
Banks are not common in the seven
teenth civil district of Davidson county,
and peoplewho don't come to town often,
and who have a distrust of banks anyway,
have Various methods of taking care Of
their money, putting it wherever they
think it will keep best. q. .s-., t.-afI
A rather novel instance of this desulto-
ry sort of banking was developed yester-
day. A man named Lawrence Finn had
sum of money amounting to Just $2,945
all Of which was in gold except about SIS.
Thinking to place it where there would
be no. possibility of any one but himself
ever finding it, he deposited it between the
ceiling and the roof of the privy, which
stood but short distance from the house.
:" 1t seems, however, that an old hen, as
well as MIR. f., had discovered the availa-
bility of this place of concealment, and
she built her nest within few inches of
whore the treasure lay, and commenced
arrangements for raising family, having
a notion-if hens ever do have notions
that she would be entirely safe in SO Sc
cluded-a spot, away from noise and cack-
ling tumult of the busy barn-yard. ftf
1.-The negro servants, though, were. not
long in discovering what had become of
the hen, and as matter of course the ex-
istence of the hidden gold soon became
known. At about four O'Clock yesterday
morning, Mr.. Finn was aroused by tu-
multi among the colored servants, and in
looking cut discovered the roof of the
prlvy to be on fire, just over the place
where his money had been deposited.
Henry Benton, one of the negroes, quick
ly extinguished the flames with buckets of
water, and on examination it was found
that paper bag filled with straw had
been placed between the roof and the
ceiling, and set on fire. The poor old hen
was cooked to death, and every vestige of
the gold had disappeared. A
Annie, the wife Of Henry Benton, was
soon after arrested on suspicion of having
stolen the money and set fire to the privy
to conceal the crime, and on being taken
before Justice Garfield she was commit
ted to Jail. Benton came to the. city,
where he also was arrested during the day,
and Justice Wilkinson committed him to
Jail to await hearing. None Of the sto-
iengold has been recovered. Union & Dis.

that four Of the impeachment managers
