A revival of extraordinary interest is nov
IN progress at the NJ. E. Church, in this
town. There have been an exceedingly large
number of penitents at the altar, and many
converts has been the result. The pastor,
Rev. VIM Hutehin, and the members o.
his church are laboring zealously in the
good work of the redemption of souls, anG
their prayers and exhortations have been
answered. May the good work continue.
Late on Tuesday night of last week, as
Mrs. Eliza Jester, housekeeper for VIM. H
Common, was returning home in horsecart.
six negroes attacked her, but she kept her
presence of mind, and courageously battled
against them. From some cause they became
frightened, and left. On Friday warrants
were issued for the arrest of Isaac Nutter,
Or, Edward Elliott, William Adams, James
Fisher, George Robinson and John Lloyd,
all OF whom were taken before Esquire AL
