ROBBERY Or AN EXPRESS MESSENGER.

The statement published yesterday in regard TO
the robbery Of messenger OF the Merchants Union
Express Company OF $4,000 on Friday last, on the
hudson River Railroad was not accurately given. The
Tram on which the robbery was committed was the
montreal express, which left Albany for this city
THURSDAY night. II appears that while the train was
~ hoahy' stranger was observed standing In the
express coinpanys cor, and that the messenger was
there aso ana that the former went as far IA Hud-
son, or rather he was not seen by the attaches Of
te Tram al.er u reached that point. The messenger

IL - surmiseu That when the train reached CARR.

ne Woou Work near the latch OF the car
door obtained an entrance thereto gagged the mes
senRer placed heavy iron handcufis on him and
bound his legs and arms with rope using no chIoro-
form. The safe key was then taken from his pocket
and the robbery perpetaed, the burglars remaining
the train TIL the cars reached Fifty ninth street
The condition OF affairs remained unknown until the
arrival OF the train in this CITY, when the employees at
the depot upon opening the ear discovered the mos
senQer I'm the position above described no bejng
almost nsensible from su location produced by the
presence OF the gag over his mouth. The case was
NJ once reported To the superintendent OF the com.
pany 10 broadway. and the matter was placed In lie
bands of the police.
