Such rare qualifications, presented in a

Discovery OF DRY GooDs.--WM.
Brown, of East Village, while about his
barn, just at evening on Thursday night
last, had his attention called by the per-
siste Mt barking ofhis dog, 10 portion Of
the adjoining cOrn6eld Going TO see
what was up he found some fourteen un-
bro ken bolts of new wooden cloths, which
had been thrown down rather carelesSly
into pile upon the ground, with nu-
merous tracks in the immediate vicinity.
Though no one was seen, il is not impTOb-
able the barking of the dog might have
been provoked as much by some one in

CLOTH The first idea was the removal
and security of the goods, and the next
to make the matter known. The place
was watched by night, but there WAS
probably an in terested witness TO the re-
moval of the go DDS, and no one therefore,
showed himself The opinion is, that the
package containing the goods was shcy-
ed out of q car of some passing freight
train, and its contents deposited in the

next night for removal The quantity of
