Heavy Robbery.


At late hour on Friday night, in Clays-
vile, the store of Mr.. Stillwagon, form
eriy connected with the Postoffice 81
this city, was burgiarioEsiy entered
and robbed OF between two thousand
and twenty-fOur hundred dollars. Nine
hundred dollars OF this money belonged
10 Mr.. Stillwagen, and the remaining
portion was the property OF gentleman
named Noble. We are not definitely in
formed Is to how the burglars succeeded
in gaining an entrance to the store, but
it is supposed thar they used pick and
crow-bar, and with the same iustru-
ments opened the safe where the money
was deposited. Two miles this side Of
Claysyille two horses we're stolen on
the same night from q farmer, and ii IS
generally believed that the party who
took the money is the same who stole
the horses. Il is very evident that
these thieves are not strangers in that
locality, for it certainly took some
prospecting" to find this rich deposit,
and We think that when they are dis
covered they will be found TO be persons
familiar with the neighborhood. We
have no doubt that the horses were
taken for the purpose Of leading the
public mind astrny and placing the
guilt upon foreign parties, as it is prob
able that the animals will be discovered
in a few days. No conclusions have
yet been arrived 1t as 70 who or where
the burglars are.
