a word Of warning to parents, guardians, and

Webster's New Unabridged Dictionary is certain
ly proud monument to the literary and analyti-
cal ability and industry Of the country, and in
this respect its compers and publishers deserve

Of amusement, instruction and ad0ramcnt Solid

A deeply interested public, whose highest
safety consists in not only sure, but speedy dis
coyery and punishment of all yiolators of the laws
of the land, cannot too highly appreciate the
prompt and decided action Of the selectmen of
Montpelier, by means of which, as now appears,
this combination has been eaectually broken up,
and the participants brought to justice. A timid
or hesiating policy might have left the work Of
awless violence to 60 On for an indefinite period

OUTLINE OF THEIR OPERATIONS.

As already stated, this remarkable series OF
high crimes, -embracing about thirty distinct
cases Of burglary and robbery, besides instances
Of borrowing teams and emitting their return,
pillerng provisions from private houses, etc. and
extending without interruption over period Of
nearly four years-began with the breaking open
Of Mr. D. X. Benefits gunsmith shop in May,
1867. This was done by llandon and Pntt-the
latter as llandon alleges, being the principal in
stipatot. The booty here was small, The next
was in July following, when the descent upon
Freeman's jewelry store took place. which has
ever since remained so great mystery llandlon,
Pratt and Sattery were the operators here and
probably obtained nearly or quite $500 in goods
This was succeeded by entering and robbng two
stores in NATURALIZATION, Slattery, and one
Renway' being the operators Returning q
Montpelier in August, 1869, the Offices OF o. II
