the horse and carriage AS the property of
that gentleman. The team was taken from
the stable of Mr. Vernon, at 9TH and NJ adj

parties of this neighborhood, but AS there is |

be done. The borrowers appeared TO have
taken good care of the horse supplying
themselves with liberal amount OF oats
from the bin of Mr.. Vernon before starting.

Wilmington road, about 5 o'clock in the

Lewis Cass, while Senator, was

sound judgment forbade him thus
voting. But he Immediately resign

that while he could not vote as they
wished he would willingly give them
an opportunity to eject a man who
would carry out their wishes. This
course stands to the credit OF Cass
