a Bold Deed.

KEwANNE, ILLs.. August 15.-Yesterday
afternoon two men called at the First Ma
tional bank in this city and asked permis-
sion to leave their satchels there siIorE
time. About O'Clock, while Cashier Pratt
and Miss Palmer, his lady assistant, Were
closing up, the men knocked at the door
and asked for their satchels. Miss Palmer
opened the door and was seized by
the neck by one of the men who then kick
ed her nearly insensible. The other man
rushed by her toward the vault near which
Pratt was standing and struck him on the
head with a revolver, knocking him
sense,ess. Pratt and Miss Palm
cr were then forced into the
vault. The burglars secured about
$50, 900, of which $4,000 was gold, and left
town. Miss Palmer and the cashier, after
remaining imprisoned over an hour, sue
ceeded in breaking the lock and releasing
themselves. They are both badly in
jured. Parties are securing the country
in every direction, but without result up to
midnight.
The bank robbers were seen this morning
near Mineral, Illinois. Parties were in hot
pursuit, with every prospect of arresting
both men before night. Over 800 men are
scouting in every direction. Mr.. Pratt and
Miss Palmer are in bad ondition to-day.
Miss Palmer is badly bruised, feverish and
prostrated by excitement. Business houses
and shops are oil closed, their owners join
ing in the chase.

Though we seem grieved at the short
ness of life in general, we are Wishing
every period Of it at an end The minor
longs to be of age, then to be q man Of
business, then to make up m estate, then
to retire. Thus, although the whole life
is allowed by every one to be short, the
several divisions of it appear long and
tedious. We are for Iengthening our
span in general, but would fain contract
the parts CT which it is composed. The
usurer would be very we'll satisfied to
have all the time annihilated that lies be-
tween the present moment and The next
quarter day. The politician would be
conteDted to lose three years of his life,
could he place things in the posture,
which he fancies they will stand in, after
such q revolution of time The lover
would be glad to strike out of his exis-
tence all the moments that are to pass
before the next meeting.
Thus, as fast as our time runs, we
should be very glad in most parts OF our
lives, that it ran much faster than it
does. Several hours of the day hang
upon our hands; nay, we wish away
whole years; and travel through time as
though o country filed with many wild
and empty wastes, which we would fain
hurry over, that we may arrive at these
several little settlements or imaginary
