BOLD RoBBERY.-On Saturday morning
last, the Jacksonville train coming
North, when about 20 miles South of
Seymour, at a wood station, was captur-
ed by band OF six or eight robbers.
The engineer was knocked down while
oiiing his train. The stoker was thrown
off the car, and the engine and express
car detached from the passenger cars,
and started by the robbers. The express
messenger made an attempt against the
robbers, but was knocked down and
thrown from the car, when running at
speed of twenty miles an hour, and died
from the effects of his wounds the next
day. The express safes were forced and
money to the amount of $4,000 alb
stracted therefrom. The robbers left
the engine and car about one mile South
of Seymour. There has been no clue to
the perpetrators of this robbery.
Our German fellow citizens held
picnic in b. aeid's grove short dis
taance so- ,a-west from this city, on last
Sunds- week 1t was gathering of
wb e families, to enjoy the country air.
,nere is no class of our citizens who
enjoy themselves more heartily than do
our German friends in their social gath
erings, and the consequence is, there are
fewer suicides among them, than with the
"natives to the manor born"-who never
think Of recreation for themselves and
families and become mere slaves to bus
mess. 4
