FALSE AI.ARM.-At about 10 o'clock
last evening, our law-abiding citizens
were throwlfi into a terrible state ofe1-
element, In consequence Of hearing
some heart-rendering outcries, which
appeared to emanste from the heights
above and to the eastward OF the I'm
perial holsting works. The outcries
were ola most agonizing character M
might reasonably have been mistaken,
for the shrieks ola woman in the act Of
being murdered, or the wall Of u .'lost
soul." Officer Putnam, Chief Jones
and n number Of other prominent citi-
Gems organized themselves into a 'for-
Iorn hope" started Immediately for
m. scene of tho disturbance. Before
the party got halt way up the hill Of.
fcer Putnam began to show signs Oh
exhaustion. and pulled like a porpoise.
On arriving at tho spot from which the
outcries proceeded the accommodating
marty. who were expecting every mo-
ment TO be compelled to send for rein
forcements, were much disguised TO
hnd that the cries all proceeded from
an Indian who was lying on the ground
dead-drunk.
