TRAIN ROBBERIEs.- The Baltimore
american says the Philadelphia, Whining
ton and Baltimore Railroad Company have
been at late frequently the victims of the
ravages of tramps, who seem to haunt the
line of the road, and to whose effrontery and
disregard of law there seems to be no limit.
A little over week ago dastardly attempt
was made to wreck a passenger train at
Gunpowder river bridge, which only failed
in being successful by the lucky choice on
the part of the perpetrators of locality
urfavorable to their designs. AS it was,
the engine collided with loaded car showed
from side track. Wednesday night of
last week three masked men, presumably
tramps, entered the Office of the telegraph
operator at Bayview and forced him to
hand over all the money he had about him.
I'VE have been informed, whether correctly
or not, that the operator was son Of
James Denny, Esq, formerly of Elkton.
On Friday night some tramps boarded the
milk train bound to Baltimore and took by
force $32 from drover on board, and now
these acts of violence are supplemented by
another scarcely less daring, and certainly
no less alarming, as evincing the character
of the men with whom railroad companies
and others have to deal. The freight train

"SoLD" BY DoG.-On Wednesday, a
party of three gentlemen left town for an
all day excursion upon the majestic water S
of the noble Elk. They were provided with
all things necessary to the pleasure of such
a trip, and the whole affair may be recorded
as a success. A little occurrence took place.
however, which, though seriously interfer-
ing with their grabbing prospects, yet only
added to the renown of the trip.
Longing to indulge in some lemonade,
they landed at Plum Point to secure water.
Not by the warm and pressing invitations
of kind hearted human beings were they
received, but a solitary cur, lank and lean,
came to the waters edge to welcome them.
Notwithstanding previous bad reports re-
garding his character, which made the
medicine man" little cautious, he
proved an agreeable companion, and ac-
companied them to the pump. After the
lapse of little while, he was missed, but
soon returned to the pump, IN more joy
full mood than before. Like the parting of
loving friends, was the separation of the
dog and his visitors. He waded out into
the water after the receding boat, and his
piteous bowling could be heard far up the
river.
AT a selected SPOT on their way ur, the y
Grounded to-" anchor was cast, and prepa-
rations made for grabbing. But 10! and
behold! when they come to cast their lines,
the meat had dsappeared.-the dog had
taken it! All efforts to borrow from neigh.
boring boats proved fruitless, and they
were compelled to use salt meat. The
"medicine man." who had expressed the
greatest sympathy for the "poor fellow, ="
now fell into melancholy regret at having
wasted SO many kind words on such a
worthless cur, and the candy man" and
newspaper mar" joined in denouncing
him. Since returning home, however, the
party has learned that this is only an old
trick with the dog, the same having been
performed on other parties visiting the
Point, and hence their regret and mortifi-
cation has been greatly mitigated
