The store Of II. J. Hads, Esq. at Chest
Springs, this county, was entered bv burglars
a week ago last Saturday night with the ev-
ident intention of getting up a corner in
boots and shoes. At least we Judge so from

which. we presume, would have done the
most good had it been vigorously applied to
the bare hide.

suit and hence see no necessity for publish
ing the card, as requested.
