4 Bold ATTEMPT At RoBBERY.-0ne Of
the boldest attempts at robbery which we
have recently chronicled occurred on yes
terday morning between II and IL o'clock
at the residence of one Of the oldest citi-
Gems Of Church Hill. His wife was at the
time seated in the basement near the front
window, when two well-dressed white men
approached, and asked if Mr.--did not
reside there. She replied that he did.
One of them said that they had been re-
uuested to call and examine fre-proof bur-
glar safe which had been purchased Of Mr..
Andrew Johnston, at Paine & Co.'s, So they
intended to purchase one like it if it suited
them, and inquired if Mrs. - had the
key, and would allow them to make the ex-
animation. She promptly replied that she
did not have,the key, and if she had she
would not allow any one to go into the
safe in the absence Of her husband.
Surmising from their suspicious conduct
and general appearance that their object
was net what they represented, she called
her daughter and servants, when the fet-
lows Immediately ran out Of the house and
down the street, and disappeared before
they could be followed. One Of the men
was about six feet high, brown hair, and
wore spectacles probably as disguise),
and the other was of medium height, dark
skin, and had a handkerchief tied around
his neck. These scoundrels doubtless
knew that a large amount of valuables was
kept in the safe, and it was evidently their
purpose, on obtaining the key from the lady
of the house, to knock her down, rob the
safe of its contents, and make good their
escape. The presence of mind of Mrs.
-, and her call for members of the fami-
ly, fortunately thwarted their purpose.
Ladies should be cautious how they admit
strangers into their residences when their
male protectors are absent.
