4 senator's Pocket Picked.

Several weeks since Hon. r. +. Withers
was invited to speak at Il grand democratic
rally i'm New York He accepted the inyi-
tation. and the crowd numbered one hun
bred thousand men. Ten speakers were
occupying rs many different stands, and the
rally went on swimmingly. In the jam IN
cideut upon this great asScmblage plckpock-
cts were afforded a splendid opportunity OF
PLYING their vocation, and Col. WitherS fell
a victim to one of them. His purse was
extracted from his pocket, containing $50 or
$40 i'm bills, several blank checks on the
Farmers Bank al this place, and Cancelled
note bearing on its back the Colonies sigma
ture Soon after the Colonel returned here
a check for 81 $50 was forwarded by the
German Exchange Bank of New York city,
10 the Farmers Bank at this place, sign
cashier, believed the signature to be genuine,
so well was the forgery executed, but at the
same time suspected that something was
rotten in Denmark" and mentioned the
matter to Colonel Withers, who stated his
robbery as above mentioned. DIR. HUFF then
had the check protested and returned 1t to
the cashier of the German Bank, inqulrlng
if it had been paid by that bank, and ask
lnT the name OF the party VINO presented H.
&c. The bank wrote that the check was
presented by one of their customers, who
pleaded innocence, and the indorsation on
the back of the check showed that it had
passed through the hands of several parties
as far as names could Indicate The check
had not been paid by the bank, and upon
its return protested it was turned over to
the party who presented ii. Next came a
letter TO Col. Withers from a law firm in
New York, stating that the check had been
placed i'm their hands for collection; that
they had compared the signature with lis
name rs signed by himself on the hotel
register, and moreover that they were pre-
pared to prove by two witnesses that they
saw the check executed by him, and the
money paid to him on it, and that unless
the matter was adjusted at once they would
pursue a course OF law to make the amount.
The Colonel wrote the lawyers the particu-
lars OF his robbery, and stated to them that
they might proceed to prosecute for the
recovery of the amount if they SAW proper,
during which prosecution he might possibly
bc enabled % arrive at the parties who had
robbed his person. lIWhcrUc Enterprise.
