How They Became Possessed of the U. =.
Mail Key and Postage stamps.

How they Became Possessed of the U. =.
Mail Key and Postage stamps.
Our readers will remember the mention
ing in our account of the robberies Of
Mangrum, MyAatt d Co., that on Henry
Mynatt large quantity of United States
postage stamps were found, and on Man
grum UnitedStates mail key, Yesterday
we were shown the following lettei to
Sheriff Gossett, which explains the entire
matter: '
HopEwELL SPRINGS, Tenn,
Nov. n, 1873.
Sheriff GoSScH:
see in the Knoxville CHRONICLE of the
Goth inst, that when Mangrum was cap
tured there was a United States mail key
found in his possession and some postage
stamps. Ny store was robbed of $500 or
S400 worth of goods on Friday night, l4th
inst, also at the same time the mail key
and a lot of postage stamps were taken
from the postotlice at this place, OF which
l am postmaster The key, presume, Is
in your possession, and / expect belongs 10
this office.
Deputy Sheriff Lindsay is at my store to-
night and we are now going in pursuit OF
my goods and Loudermilk, whom we have
good information about. My mail key is
No. 3657O, and If the one captured is mine
| want it when it can be obtained legally.
There were several dollars worth OF stamps
taken from my postoffice when the Key
was taken.
If Loudermlk can be found in this
country we will get him before we quit
him. If you get any information of Lou
dermilk IF we fail this trip letus Know
l refer you to Cowan, McClung & Co., or
. Coffin, Martin q Co., for my standing.
Yours in haste,
EDWIN HALL.
The number of the mail key given i'll the
letter corresponds with the number of the
key in Sheriff Gossett's possession, and of
course there is 10 doubt but that the
stamps found on the person of Mynatt are
the same mentioned in the letter. The
Sheriff also received the following letter,
which explains itself:
HOOPS LANDING, Tenn, Dec. l, 1873.
V. +. GOssETT-SIR: wish TO get some
information concerning stolen horse, If
there be any in your vicinity. He is bay
horse with very crooked hind legs, and had
a lump on each side of his shoulders when
stolen, Yours, &c, W.F. JACKSON.
Another letter, dated December 1st, was
received from w. H. Gentry, Triune, Ten
nessee in which full description is given
of a horse stolen from him some time since.
Seeing an account in the papers of the ar
rest of Mangrum and Mynatt and the cap
ture of several horses, he thought, per-
haps, one of them might be his. The de-
scription does not correspond with that of
the bay mare in Sheriff Gossett's posses
sion, nor was there any such horse as
above described found in the possession of
the gang. There is no doubt but what
both the above named animals were sto-
len by this gang, but they have both
doubtless been sold by their confederates
in the South. We trust the expedition
above spoken of will prove successful, and
that ere long Loudermilk will keep Man
grum and Mynatt company.
Mangrum's wounds are doing well, and
there is not much doubt of his recovery, if
he does not become too much alarmed.

The New Attorney General.

The COurier-JOurndl, a Democratic pa
per published at the home OF the newly
appointed Attorney General, speaks Of him
in the following high terms:
The new Attorney General will fill the
place TO its measure. Colonel Bristow is
in all respects capable man. He possesses
ready and copious resources is fair-mind-
ed and temperate is not merely lawyer,
out a,large-minded politician and man of
business. The high talents and extensive
legal requirements which had marked Col.
BristOw as one Of the foremost lawyers OF
this State soon made for him very en-
yiable reputation at the National capital.
The new dignity, however, will not add
20 the estimation in which Gen. Bristow
is held by his friends and admirers in this
city and State. 1t has been remarked by
a gentleman who has been most init
nately associated with him, That TO be
in Gen. Bristow's presence i 10 in
stinctively recognize that one is brought
in contact with great man." He is
doubtless the most popular man i'll his
party in this section, and the appoint
ment will give entire satisfaction TO the
Republicans Of Kentucky ana the South.
Gen. Bristow is Of very striking and
handsome presence, man OF culture and
a thorough gentleman. He is genial III
mis- manners, a firm friend and (thoss
who know him best say pretty good en-
envy. He will dignity and elevate the Of
fee which he is called upon TO MI, ana Will
bring into the social life OF the natlona
ranital personal and family relations which
will adOrn that society.

were some fellows Just in his rear looking
for him, so he fed, and Jack went on his
way rejoicing. The night fuliowing,. as
Jack was returning from labor, Louder
milk attacked him again, but this time
about half mile west of the place OF the
former attack, and in Mr. Foute's field,
near his residence. Loudermilk demand
ed Jacks shoes, but Jack not being OF so
liberal a disposition as to pull off his shoes,
and thereby expose his "lttle" feet to the
cold, especially to satisfy the wants OF such
a villain as Loudermilk, emphatically told
him, "YoR can't get them" whereupon
Loudermilk seized him, and violent
struggle ensued for a short time, when
Jack succeeded in knocking him down,
and then called for help from the house,
and for. them to "bring the gun !" but
when Jack began to get the best of him, he
took with a leaving. Notwithstanding all
Jacks efforts to keep him there few min
utes only, he left. 1t was but very short
time until the arrival of six or eight other
hands, led and commanded by young Mr..
Foute. Jack told about his trouble, and
they instantly and eagerly pursued the
villain, and doubtless would have caught
him but for neighboring thicket, into
which he made his escape, and which
served him as good place of refuge"
The writer of the communication fur
Their states that the cause of Mangrum' S
and Louudermilk's appearance in that
part of the country, was their desire to
Kill Mr.. 5. A. Taylor, of the firm of Smith
& Taylor, who had prosecuted son'of the
lewd woman near whose residence Man
grum was captured, for forgery. The boy
was sentenced to the penitentiary, and 1t
is supposed that she persuaded Mangrum
and Loudermilk to thus avenge her. He
thinks that they will yet capture Louder
milk.
We clip the following from the Kingston
East TcEneSSeedT, under the head OF
"ANoTHER HEAVY ROBBERY"
Although Maugrum and Mynatt, who
for so long time deprecated in this and
neighboring counties, are at last safe in
limbo, thanks to the gallant and intrepid
Love- the redoubtable Loudermilk, who
figured so conspicuously in our local re-
port of the several recent robberies in this
county is still at large, and, it is said, was
seen by divers persons, or some one re-
sembling him, in this immediate neigh
borhood on Wednesday and Thursday of
last week. At any fate, a robbery took
place on the highway, somewhere between
James Ferry and town, the victim. being
little boy by the name of Ore, whom the
unconscionable robber relieved of ten
cents and several squirrels, which the lit
tie fellow was bringing to market in order
to raise money to buy some indigo. From
the little fellows description of the robber,
the knowing one asserts with much posi-
tiveness that the daring robber was none
other than the redoubtable Louder
milk. II true, it was a small business for
Clinton to engage in, and calculated to de-
tract somewhat from the unenviable re-
nown achieved by his more daring ex-
PLOTS.

News from Ganum Mynatt has been
looked for with deep anxiety, and for days
J. X. Love has been in search Of him, but
without any satisfactory result, and it
seemed that his re-arrest would not be ac-
complished, and we presume that Love
gave up the hunt. Thursday, however
Sheriff Gossett received the following
cheering letter, which explains itself:
BARBoURsvILLE, KNOX Co., KY,
Dec. /, 1873.
Sheriff OF RnoI County, Tennessee.
On the 9th Of November We arrested
Ganum Mynatt at this place. We saw
an account Of his depredations in the
Louisville COurier-JOurndL, this account
was copied in full from the CHRoSICLE,)
| and arrested him on suspicion. He has
| since confessed that he is the man. If
there is a reward already offered, Of
| course We expect it. If none has been of
! fered, we will deliver him at Jacksboro'
or Tazewell for a sufficient reward. At
any rate, We ought to be paid something
! for catching him. II there he a'reward we
will resist by law all efforts he may make
| through lawyers 10 effect his release. If
we are sufficiently paid, we can deliver
| him at either of the places suggested
/ without the trouble of a requisition, but
expect it will be safer for you to get one, IL
you desire. respectfully,

p. S.-We HAD the Police Judge to write
yOu few days ago.
Sheriff Gossett left on the o'clock train
for JacksbOro' from whence he will pro-
coed on horseback 10 Barboursville, KY,
and take charge of the gentleman. He is
determined TO bring him at all hazards,
and should he have secured his release by
law, he will at once re-aTest him, and get
into Tennessee before proceedings for his
second release can be instituted. So, in
due course of time we may look
for Mynatt 70 take his place with
his comrades in crime in the county
Jail, and the hearts desire OF Mangrum
will be gratfied. Mynatt once in Jail, and
only one of the gang will be at large, viz
Loudermilk. Some time since it was
stated through the papers that he crossed
the river into what Is called the "piniee. u
A correspondent from near Muddy Greek
writes that this is all mistake, and thai
the information had perhaps been purpose
ly furnished the papers incorrectly in or
der to mislead the pursuers. He says they
are confident that Loudermilk Is still In
that neighborhood. The letter was writ.

take the following extract:
