On Friday night of last week a bold
attempt at the robbery of a bank at
ChiIicothe, In this State, was frus-
trated by one of the accomplices be-
coming an informant. At about 4
O'Clock on the night in question four
men went to the house OF Major 8. Nc
Williams, President of the Peoples
Bank Of that place, who lives a little
way outside, the corporation lines, and
attempted to get possession of his per-
son, in order to get the keys of the bank
and rob it. The Major was forewarned
and forearmed. He had a number Of
friends in his house. A brisk fire was
opened between the robbers and the
inmates Of the dwelling. The ringlead-
er of the robbers, Smith Rambo, q farm-
er residing in that county. was killed on
the spot and his followers fled. These
followers have since been arrested.

Suspected Horse Thief in Limbo.
On Wednesday of last week an indi-
vidual passed through Rochester on
horseback, and by certain erratic move
ments excited the suspicion of several
citizens. resulting in Mr.. R. B. Chrystal
swearing a writ against him. He was
brought before Squire Blount at Roch-
ester, where he gave the name of Mike
Bates. JonathanNS nowden accused him
O being John d. Woolry, which he az
forward admitted. After q hearing he
was committed to the Andrew county
jail, in default of five hundred dollars
bail, in which institution he is now rest
ing his limbs. The mare he had in his
possession can be seen at Rochester, and
was doubtless taken in Kansas. It is
described as follows: Sorrel color, blaze
face, three years old, one hind foot

Ksy wsae Telegram gives N acc,ast u the
aarrcndler At tl,s virginius prisoners to
kisut COspsnandcr Brainc of the Juniata.
Il appears that tho Spanish authoritics up
70 the last moment kept the poor wretches
b iGnos~aes Of their prospective rslsass,
and with base inhumanity led them to sup
psse they were to be executed. Priests
were with them, taking their confessions
and dying declasatioas, ard implosing
them 70 look IA God for pardon. They
were taken cut u the prison In despair, but
on their way to the slaughter pen, ~ they
supposed, their eyes fen On the Juniata fly
ing the flag Of the United States. When
they realized the truth, a scene occurred
which beggars description. Their cnthasi-
asn knew NO bounds. They were speedily
transferred to the deck Of the Juniata
and gave vent to the most extravagant
but touching demonstrations Of joy, embra-
cling each other, some crying, some kissing,
and others audibly Offering thanks to Al
mighty God for their deliverance from the
horrors Of an ignominious death.
On the night before the surrender the
officers and crew Of the Juniata were sta
toned at quarters, her guns being turned
on tho city. The Spanish volunteers hav-
ing been excited to open riot by runor
that the surrender was to take place, .
large number Of the volunteers went In .
body to the Governors palace and begged
permission to attempt the capture Of the
Juniata, saying they could do it with
knives alone. The Governor refused to
grant permission. Our officers believe
that the application was made in earnest,
and not few regret it was not favorabyl
entertained, As the Juniata alone, not to
speak of the Kansas and Pinta, would have
been more than match for their assail-
ants. ~s .s.
On the arrival of the Pints at Santiago,
orlcrs came to the ship from Commander
Braine for the paymas.er to issue all the
blankets and pea,jackets in his department
to the prisoners, who were hardly fit to be
seen in their rags. This was speedily done,
but they still were in = great state Of desti-
tuition. Orders came for every man ON board
to give up their own blankets and wearing
apparel in the good cause; and promise
was made that al would be replaced on the
arrival Of the ship at the Key West. The
officers aud men cheerfally complied with
the order, only preferring that it should be
issued ~ request, in which case they
would have obcyed with just as much alac-
rity. Every heart was touched by the pitt
able condition Of the prisoners. 1t was re-
ported in Santiago that when it was found
that the Virginius had been towcd out Of
the harbor Of Havana, . large number Of
naval officers Of high grade rendered their
designations to the homee government by
| telegraph.
