STOLEN GOODS RECOVERED.
After Being Hidden Fifteen Years.

ANCE hCiuS Ihustoh f1tCch
About fifteen years ago the residence OF
Rev. DR.. J. W. Nevin, CHrnarvOn Place,
was entered by thieves, who blew open the
safe, with gunpowder, and robbed it of all
the silver and silver plated ware. Rev. Il.
J. Ncvin, d. d., now preaching in Rome,
on the hight of the robbery, occupied 4
room above that in which the thieves
were operating, and heard the explosion
of the safe, but supposins it to have been
the blowing up Of a powder house, miles
away, he did not raise an alarm, and the
thieves were enabled to get away with their
booty, and nothing more was heard oftho
stolen goods by the owners until a few
days ago, when they learned that some of
the stolen goods had been buried in u
small barn on property recently pur-
chased by John Kamm, at the head of
North Prince street. The thieves had no
doubt carried their plumber to this barn,
and there examined and assorted it, car
rying away with them the solid silver and
burying the plated ware. The thieves
had tested the gcnuincncss Of the metal
by breaking the spoons, forks and other
table ware.
1t is said the first discovery of the buried
plumber was made last spring by some
children whose curiosity led them to un-
cover a mound of earth which attracted
their attention in the ground floor of the
shed or stable. Discovering some pieces
of broken forks Or spoons they were in
duced to rebury them 'for luck" News
of the finding recently incidentally
reached the victims of the Nevin robbery
and the marking of the ware fixed its
identity. The thieves were no doubt har-
T.
Facglcysvillc, and buried the evidences of
their guilt which they could not melt nor
negotiate. Nothing Of much value was

at such an act, who will coldly look upon
fellow-being SO basely treated, in whom
is lacking that delicate chord Of human
affection, which responds to the appeals
of suffering man.
This is severe, and it is more severe III
that the most advanced of fprcscnt nations

barous or uncivilized people that thus we

AS nation from our very origin on ac-
count of treatment Of the Indian and our

with deeds most dastardly, with crimes
most Infamous.
What shall VIC say OF the Indians con

excuse for our actions toward him, for his
ill-treatmcnt. His dcpredatiOns and out
RACES, the massacres, of which he was the
perpetratOr, can in every instance be
traced to causes which, hover around the
threshold Of the white, who was tho first
to offend. The Indian did not forget his
cruel treatment. Ever did he hold wildly
in mind tho kidnappers and pillagers Of
whose crimes the whole Atlantic coast was
the scene. Nay, his barbarous soul was
rOused-that tender sympathy i'll his breast
which in the white was blunted by his
avarico was the principle and worthy motor
of his deeds. His acts were to avengc
those of tho white were excited by gain.
In avcnging he rcsorted to that most ma
tural to one of his condition. Did VIC COM
nara the motives of the Indian. in all his
conduct, with those of white, how sad
would be the contrast We should then

Can these wrongs and injuries be ap-
