DARING OUTRAGE.

ROBBERY BY BAND or MASKED THIEVES
At six o'clock Friday evening while Mr..
Watson and his family were At supper at their
residence, In Titusville. Pa. ive men whose
faces were masked entered their apartments,
and after threatening them with their revol-
vers presented, handcuffed the whole family,
after which they were gagged and tightly
bound together. While this was going on in
side the house, four other men remained on
guard outside. The thieves then proceeded to
ransack the house and succeeded IN opening
the safe, from which they obtained batween
one and two thousand dollars. In their haste
q kerosene lamp was upset, the flames COM
municating to tie furniture, and 1t was with
great difficulty that the robbers extinguished
the fire. Mr. Watson was severely burned
where he lay upon the floor.
The perpetrators Of the daring outrage then
left the house, leaving the inmates securely
gagged and bound. 1t was not until midnight
that their condition was discovered. Mrs
Watson was found In a critical condition
| the handouts and irons placed on her ankle.
| having cut into her flesh. No clue has We
been found as to the perpetrators.

A GRAND CHEATHAM MEETING
AT MURFRRESBORO.
Murrnrrsporo. october .. ls12.

MURFREEsBoRo. October 20. 1872.
To THE EDITOR OF THE UNION AND
AMERIcASi According to programme
ex Governor Isham G. Harris arrived in
the city yesterday morning TO deliver an.
address to our citizens at mass meet
ing called for that day in behalf Of Gen.
Cheatham for Congress. Many of the
old friends of the Governor called to see
him at the hotel, and gave him hearty
welcome. By little past twelve, when
the speaking began, large concourse
of our citizens had assembled at the
courthouse. Col. Colyar, our old stand
by, was present. and requested the privi-
legs of dividing time with Governor
Harris, which was willingly granted
him. he opened liz two hour speech,
in which he presented the claims Of Mr..
johnson for Congressman for the State
at large, on the grounds OF his ability,
high qualifications and honesty.
Governor Harris arose TO reply amid
loud, enthusiastic and protracted cheer
ing by the immense assembly, when he
thanked them for the honors paid him,
and proceeded in most eloquent but
effective and scorchiRg manner to hold
up to view and criticize the past political
record Of Mr.. johnson. He considered
him disorganizer, having but little care
for this party or people. but possessed
with an inordinate ambition, almost al
ways holding an Office or clamoring for
Office. He dwelt somewhat at length on
conventions and Johnson's connection
with them, and earnestly guarded the
people against dividing up their party to
let in Radical His opinion was that
Cheatham would make a better repre-
sentative and have more influence in
Congress than johnson; that speaking
did but little good to secure the passage
of measures there; that the farmer with
his big impulsive heart would have far
more influence in putting through meas
ures TO develop the resources of our
country than the latter with all OF his
speaking powers, or his strong advocacy
Of my policy. Cheatham could not
make speeches (neither could Washing
ton nor Jeferson) but was a man of fine
practical sense and social qualities.
he said that johnson had opened up the
veil and broken the seal OF the past and
presented to view the bloody chasm that
he Harris wished yelled and sealed
from eur sight. T
The discussion became somewhat ex1
citing, especially in the applications Of
each. Colyar got so badly Hsed ur, it
would be natural 10 suppose that he
viii not venture out to spHte again
soon. The effort Of Governor Harris
was a great saccess. Many eulogies
have been deservingly passed upon his
speech. He made many warm friends.
and was instrumental in converting
many over to Cheatham that we're neu-
trail or fer Johnson
The present indications are that NJ
therford county win give General Cheat
ham handsome majority over a. j.
Cheatham stock is no doubt on the rise.
Lewis and Wissner, Greeley and Grant
electors for this Congressional District,
spoke after night Most Of the crowd
appeared to be Greeley and Cheathsm
men. "VIRGISIUs.

meeting Of Germans was held yesterday
evening, in response to call signed by
the Executive Committee of the musical
and other societies, inviting them to as
semble for the purpose of expressing
their views on the closing Of saloons on
Sundays. Exciting speeches were made,
denouncing the Puritans and fanatics,
and resolutions were passed declaring
the temperance Sunday laws to belong to
a bygone age, and infringing upon the
rights guaranteed in the constitution;
that they will in future make a common
cause against the restraint Of individual
freedom, and appointing committee to,
put up ticket to represent their cause.
Two large meetings were held last night
by the friends of temperance. Speeches
were made by leading clergymen, and
committees appointed to get up tenn
perance ticket. .n
