H1ghwaymen Near GAINESVILLE.

The GAINESVILLE Gazette relates bolC
transactions of highwaymen neal
that city last week. A man named
Joseph Wheeler fell victim TO two
cut-throa!s and robbers. Wheeler
was driving span of horses attached
to an open buggy, and two men &C
costed him, asking for ride. Wheel
er replied that they could ride if the
seat would hold mp three persons
They answered that they could sit
behind, which they did. He had not
driven far when they suddenly
grasped him by the neck, pulling
him over the seat back wards. A
knife was then drawn across his
breast, which, however, being dull,
did not infict any wound 1t cut
through bis coat, vest and shirt, but
did not penetrate his body. He was
then thrown to the ground, while
the two men drove off with the
team. Some time afterwards, but
how long, Mr.. Wheeler cannot say,
bis horses were brought back to the
spot at which he was thrown 10 the
ground, but tho buggy was missing.
Whether either one of the parties
implicated in the assault returned
with the horses, he is not positive,
but he supposes they were of the
gang. GAINESVILLE is on the watch for
scOundrels.

when they found somebody who was
