A one armed soldier named Herring Of
WatsrviIle, who but for the spirits The had
invoked TO dwell within him, was capable Of
better things, entered the house Of Or j.
Y. Dewey, Wednesday evening Of last week,
during the attendance of the Doctor upon
the wedding Of his grand daughter, and made
search IT the rooms for iewelry- glecting
the more precious matters Of silver and gold
which were lying in the closets and on the
tables After q thorough ransacking the
intoxicated thief purloined two sets Of Jew
cIry, pins, rings, bracelets Sc., belonging to
Mr. Dewey, and very highly priced keep
skies and mement0es. Officer Arson Davis
was notified of the theft and - worked up -
tho case 30 successfully that he soon came
upon portion Of the valuables in the pos
session Of a lady to whom Herring had sold
them. The lady hesitating about giving up
the articles without being reimbursed for her
investment, Mr.. Davis was compelled to set
hef,re her eyes the terrors Of the law as re-
CARDS holders Of stolen property. Then the
lady gracefully yielded rather than take
rooms with 50 genial q landlord as our friend
Dudley at the county boarding house
Finding that Herring had taken the cars for
Burlington, Officer Davis followed him

portunity for calculating the advantages and
drawbacks of jewelry business commenced
under such circumstances.

different parties within the past few days
for only one Of which has any owner yet ap-
reared This one belongs to Mr.. Scribner,
who, while working in the State House, hung
up the coat il an adjoining room from which
Herring distracted it, Owners are wanted
for the other coats
