NEW YORK. Oct 27.-The Manhattan Say
and Bleecker streets, was entered this morn
ing by burglars, who succeeded in carrying
OIL q large amount Of money, iewelry, plate
and other vauables. The robbery was one Of
: iTassssasgnQst daring and complete ever com nit
lad In TaIihns city. From the manner in which
aIl the "details of the robbery were carried
out. The police are of the opinics that the
BURGLARS are first-class operators.
From what can be CLEANED of the way in
which the burglary was committed, it appears
that the bank has two watchmen in their en-
ploy, besides a janitor named Louis WerlSIe,
who resided with his mother-ln-law on the
premises. This morning, shortly after 6
o'clock. Dan Healy, one OF the Watchmen who
had been on duty all night, went up stairs and
called Werkle, The latter immediately got
out of bed and commenced to dress himself
The watchman, after seeing that all was safe,
went down stairs again, and left the premises
by the side door on Beecker street A few
minutes later before Werkle had time TO dress
himself, seven men, all wearing MASKS,
walked into his apartments, and with fevoi-
yers in haRd ordered him to remain quiet
They tho handcufed him and his wife, ana
after tying his mother-in-law to the bedStead
they took Werkle down stairs TO the door OF
the bank and ordered him to give up the keys.
At first Werkle, who is an old man about
sixty years Of age, refused, but on the bur-
glars threatening to kill him he finally handed
over the keys, which led into the banking
room. The burglars opened the door, and by
threats compelled him to give them the COM

GLASGOW. Oct. 27.-The iron is entering the

City of Glasgow Bank. The lists published
yesterday show the liabilities due on the first
call Of $500 on each G100 share to be as fol-
lows: Thos. Matthew, Glasgow, $5C4, ,429

HOLLY SPRINGS, Oct. Give buried Friday
the brave, heroic Holland the ma1l who, for
getting his own interests, his own danger, re-
mained to succor the sick and destitute, and
offered up his own life q holy sacrifice on the
altar OF humanity. His boundless devotion
to his people will never be etfaced. and has
made for him in their hearts O. monument
more lasting than brass. He passed away
giving orders, even in his deltrlum, for the
distribution of delicacies to the sick. So
worked, so lived and SO fell the noblest Ro-
man Of them oil. An ADLER pen than mine
will before long pay O just tribute to his

We are sending the New Orleans nurses

and they widely scattered. Drs. Ross and
Sigur are both In bed Ross, it is feared, with

CHICAGO, Oct. 27-The Times has the fol
lowing special from Camp Robinson, Ne
braslka, October 2G.
A courier just in from Chaderon Greek, the
scene Of the Indian troubles, says the hostile
Cheyennes are still In pits under the banks OF
the creek, and say death is far preferable to
being compelled to go back to their agency In
the indian Territory, Which they we're Uuy forced
to leave this summer, having received little
or no ratioDs for O. long time previous to
taking their flight.
Col. Coulton, with four companies Of the
Third Cavalry, has the hosties closely
penned, and another company is expected
hourly, making it almost impossible for one
Of the Indians to escape. The humane colo
nel Is endeavoring to induce the hostiles to
come forth before he is compelled to open fire
on them, but they are stubborn in their re-
fusal, and say unless they have his word to be
allowed to go and join their red brothers in
the Red Cloud or Spotted Tail Agency every
one OF them will die in their holes, either by
bullets, cold or hunger, The courier, while
in the Cheyenne camp before they took to
the pits, saw over o dozen hostile men and
women, nearly nude, crying bitterly, and VOW
ing they would rather be shot or tomahawked
where they stood than be forced to return
them will leave the Indian Territory reserva-
ton on the first opportunity and come north
The courier says It is heart-rendiDg to see these
naked saVages, the papooses literally without
covering sufficient TO keep them from freez-
Ing, clinging to their mothers breasts, en-
deavoring to obtain warmth, where little can
be found, the poor unprotected mothers
themselves being nearly frozen.
Two large pieces of artillery are now on the
grounds, with g. large supply Of shot and shell.
Should any OF these savages manage to es-
cape and get to the Red Cloud Agency, only
thirty miles distant, and make their griev-
ances known to Red Clouds warriors, who
are themselves ready to take the war path il
any reason be given, 1t Is feared general In
dian war may be tho result.

are of especial value for fa.tening for

perhaps, one OF the most ecOLOmizino
foods for poultry, has the advantage
that, owing 10 the size of the corn, spar
rows are unable TO rob the fowl.
Pieces OF bread an vegetables of all
kinds may be utilized, and scraps of
meat chopped up rather small are of
great value in feeding fowls SHUT up in
the small yards where they are unable to
obtain worms and insects. Potatoes
well boiled and mixed with coarse pol
lard or bran, when scaled TO form a
rather stiff paste, are useful for helping
out the corn. As rule. fowls kept
entirely in enclosed yards should have
three meals a day; the first to consist of
soft food, prerared by the admixture
of boiled potatoes, kitchen scraps, bran
or pollard, and barley CT oatmeal; and
for the other two meals corn of some
kind is decidedly preferable. TIE
soft food will be all the better If it is
mixd over night and placed IN an oven,
so that it ;iay be warm in the morning.
The preparations OF soft food is un-
doubtedly troublesome, and those who
have but little time should feed cn-
tirely with Indian corn. A constant
supply of fresh, clear clean water is
essential, and moderate quantity of
green food, such as caulifiower, cabbage,
lettuce, broccoli leaves, and turnip tops,
should be thrown into the yard daily,
otherwise it will be difficult to keep
the occupants in thoroughly healthy
condition.
