DICK TURpIN IN NEW JERSEY.

About seven o'clock last night, while carriage
belonging to TayloT's stables was returning from
the Pasade Mountain House. near Engle-
wood, N. j., q jumped on tho front
seat and caught tho driver, named Stack.
aged seventeen years, by the wrist and
demanded him to give mp tho horses.
The driver refused but gave the man all the money
he had thirty cents The highwayman then struck
tho driver each side of the face and stabbed him
in the abdomen. The rufiian then jumped of and
attempted to take hold of the traces. Tho
driver whipped the horses aud they broke
away from the grasp of the robber, who wore
black mask. Tho Englewood Protective Association
will by daybreak to-day have pckets guarding every
road within three miles of the OF the at
tempted robbery. The outrage is supposed to DO
the work of q tramp.

liarly pleasing to them. The convention might
declare Ireland legislatively Independents and as
sumo to itself the functions or provisional gov
eminent. In such a moment the Advanced Ma
tonaists would heartily cooperate. and they VIII
doubtless labor to bring IL about This is possi-
bility which the English press has already foreseen
with dread. and the Times has thought 1t well to
point out to the administration the necessity OF
checking such design by strong measures.
There is. however, u large party who hope that.
while the entire project yet in embryo the advent
OF liberal Cabinet to power may take the vino out
of the sails or the Irish national leaders. They believe
that the adoption OF conciliatory policy toward
Ireland and the concession of some minor measures
may prevent the present separatist movement from
ever coming to crisis and may render abortive the
Dungannon Convention of 1882.
