WATERFORD, N. Y, October a.
This usually quiet village was sud,
denl y thrown into state OF great
excitement at an early hour this
morning by the reported robbery OF
the contents of the vault of the Sar-
atoga County Bank, an old moneyel
institution, and the murder of tho
family Of the Cashier, Van IIoyen-
berg. The villagers all crowded
about the little bank building, in
gray Of the early dawn, to find all
the members Of the Cashiers family
alive, but the bank vault cleared OF
it's valuables, nearly five hundred
thousand dollars, mostly IN govern
ment bonds, the property Of citizens,
whose boxes were in the vault for
safe-keeping. The banks loss is
only nine thousand five hundred
dollars, oil in currency The Cash,
ier's family reside ia a house in the
rear Of the bank building, which Is
situated on the northeast corner OF
Broadway and Seconds streets. On
tho rear OF the Cathiers residence il
window on the second story, which
has been left without any particular
safeguards, and an entrance was ef-
iected through the window about
midnight, by one Of the burglars
clambering up to 1t from the iron
guards on the outside of the win
dows on the fret floor below. Once
in the residence, he passei through
to the front basement door, and ad.
mitted bis confederates, eight In
number. The nine burglars, who
had evidently learned the habits Of
the family, proceeded at once to the
room of the servant girl, Ann Drs-
coll, and bound aud gagged her.
Then, going up stairs, successfully
bound and gagged the cashier, bis
wife, two daughters and little son.
The men were all masked aud
heavily armed, the masks beirp
made Of knit goods, with holes cut
for the eyes and mouths Of the ras-
Gals. The family were all placed in
one room, and one ruiiian left to
guard them, while the remsinder
dragged the Cashier to the bank
Building, where, with four pistols
presented at his head, and q bowie
knife held over his heart, he was
forced to unlock the bank vault,
which the thieves proceeded to
empty Of its valuables, having done
which, they left the place, lerving
all the persons bound and gaggei.
BY three o'clock their work had
been completed, and they left as
quietly as they had come. About
four o'clock the eldest daughter sue
ceeded in getting her hands free
from the tar>covered thongs which
had bound her, and went in search
Of her father, whom she found lying
stretched on the bank hoor. His
feet we're unbound and his pistol

To Whom II MAY Concern.

We are informed that since We
have given up the uso Of the old
trade mark Of Holloway's Pills aud
Ointment, como unprincipled per-
soma have commenced the manufac-
turing Of them, offering them as old
stock made two or three years since.
We caution all dealers aud druggists
against purchasing them, as wo shall
seize them wherever found.
We have gone to a great expense
1t having anew water-markcd paper,
with our trade mard on ii, as per
sample enclosed. On and after this
date, this quality of paper win bs
used to wrap around each box Of
piIls, or pot OF ointment or expecto-
rant, and in due course will be ex-
tensively sdyerti,ed as the only gen
uine. Ore Of the worst features
about these countsrfeits 10 that the
pills have no cathartic effect, and
that the ointment is a positive In
jury, having produced in some cases
modification Of the log. We have
complaints every day Of this charac-
ter and know them 70 bs true.
These parties offer tho old style
Of Holloway's Pills and Ointment
from $3.50 per gross, up 10 % and
$40. This alone gives evidence Of
the worthless nsturs Of tho injurious
compounds. We ask the favor Of
oil the information you can give III
regard to these countcrleits.
Yours, very respectfully,
HOLLOWAY 4 Co.,
Sole Proprietora Holloway's Pills,

Loss Of the Steamer Emperor

RoCkLANp, May ~. The steamer En-
peror, Capt. w, +. Sulis, from Yarmouth,
n. s., for Portland, with eighty passengers
and a small freight struck on Eastern Point
Ledge, Seal Island, at half past | o'clock
last night. There was II dense fog at the
time, and the steamer struck heavily and
began to make water rapidly. The pas
sengers We're all embarked in the boats at
hall past two this morning, ut which time
the water had drowned the fires and at
daylight the passengers and crew were
safely landed ON Matinicus rock The
steamer had sunk to the waters edge this
morning, and subsequently capsizcd and
her upper deck was torn oil. She will I'm
doubtedly be n total loss. The Emperor
was six hundred tons burden, and was
owned by the armouth and Boston Steam
Navigation Company. She was insured
for $4,000 in armouth companies, and
$1,000 in st. John companies. The pas
sengers brought nothing from the wreck
fishing schooner was chartered to bring
the officers and part of the passengers to
this city, where She arrived ut about half
past one this afternoon, and has returned
for the remainder. Capt. J. Ii. Grant.
light keeper ut Matnieus Rock, showed
every attention in his power to the untor-
tunate passengers and crew of the steamer.
and they speak strongly in his praise.
The Emperor was rebuilt last winter in
st. John, ut an expense Of so 900. She
was making her second trip tor the season
