An Attempt at RObbery-The Owner Sc

1t IS reported in Maryville to-day, that
on yesterday party of persons, whose ap-
pearance and demeanor were suspicious.
pretended to be camping at the Brick Mill,
ten miles below town. About o'clock at
night some of them went to the store of
Mr. j. G. Hale, at that place, and after
buying some sugar, coffee, etc, one of the
rufllans drew q revolver, presenting if at n
young mau named Thompson who is clerk
ing for Mr.. Hale, and demanded his
money, The young man ran his hand into
his pocket as if to get the money and drew
pistols, whereupon the ruffian fired, the
ball missing Thompson and striking
Lieut.. Hale in the head. BY some means
young Thompson failed to return the fire,
and the parties made their escape. The
wound is reported to be serious, and per-
haps fatal though he was living at lastac-
counts.
Lieut.. Hale is one of our best citizens,
and it is hoped that no means will be
spared to bring the guilty parties to
speedy justice.
Last night the house of Allen Garner.
ST., reniding on Little rivor, sevon miles
east of Maryville, was entirely consumed
by fire. The fire originated in a room
which was closed up, and the members of
the family being in a different part of the
building, the subtle element had such
Roadway before it was discovered that
nothing could be saved from the house.
1t is thought by some to have been the
work of an incendiary. The old man has
accumulated a large amount of money,
which he keeps at interest. He had col
lected it in a few days before, but for
tunately had let it out again. His notes
and papers were all destroyed, but the loss
is not so great as if the money had been
consumed. W.

whose end was accelerated" and this poor vic
tim died, It Is said, on the 9Th OF June, 1885, A
postmortem examination was held on his body,
the ofical report Of which is couched In language
of singular ambiguity. certain citizen Sevestre
reports to the convention the death OF the
Dauphin, whom he calls with affected contempt,
"the son Of Capet." He sends the post-mortem
report made on the body OF the deceased child BY
the doctors appointed for the purpose. They de-
clare that. having been introduced BY the commis-
sloners into certain apartment, 1--WE found
THE DEAD BODY
of child which appeared to De ten years OF age
and which the commissioners informed US was
that Of the deceased Louis Capet and which two Of
us recognized to be the child which they had at-
tended for several days past" The language OF
this report seems purposely selected to suggest
doubts as to the identity OF the dead child with
the Dauphin. It is obvious that none Of the
four physicians actually knew the Dauphn
and It seems both singular and sus-
picious that persons wholly unacquainted
with him should have been deputed by the govern
ment to certify his death. One OF the doctors re.
tanned the Door chids heart, and alter the Resto-
ration offered IL to his sister, the Duchesse d'An-
gouleme. She however, declined to accept IL, and
her refusal cast additional suspicion on the iden-
tity of the victim. The chlds body after the ex.
animation was placed in box for the purpose Of
being inferred In The cemetery.
THE FRIENDS OF THE TRUE DAupHIN,
who were still concealed In the Temple tower
gave him another dose OF opium substituted him
IN the box for the body OF the child, and thus pro-
cured his removai from the Temple The dead
child was subsequently inferred in yard Of the
Templc. The skeleton was discovered some years
afterwards; but the royal family took no notice Of

place. wnen the Dauphin was removed from the
