Another Robbery.

After they had given their performance
at Heuck's Hall last Thursday evening
and retired to the Boswell House for the
night, the Royce Swiss Bell Ringers were
robbed of from fifty to sixty dollars in
cash, n silver watch. valued at $4,000,
and fine scissors case and contents. The
thief entered the rooms of the sleepers OH
the second floor, by climbing into win
overlooking shed-roof.
The members of the Company were
greatly chagriued next morning on aris-
ing, to find the fruits of their evening S
entertainment thus spirited away and sew
eral bills unpaid; the more so, because
they were strangers, and some were sus-
piciOus enough to believe the robbery a
hoax-a sllarper's trick to beat their cred
tors. We are glad to Know, however,
that but few were so uncharitable. That
all such surlnises were wholly unfounded,
was soon proved by the fact that Nr. Lam
sing, member of the troupe, though ml-
known to but few, left valuable gold
watch in trust with MIR. Z. NJ. Bee, to be
held by him until money was returned to
cover all bills,-;ls we'll as the capture of
thief, which WAS accomplished by Mar
shall McClendon the succeeding
night. The culprit turned out to be Tom
Anderson, IL young negro convict, who
has been employed about town by Capt.
Hoskins as "trusty." When caught he
had Oh his person about $500 of the
money nd the watch, which was identl-
fed by Mr.. Royce, who returned here
Sunday. On preliminary trial before
Justice Baggett Monday, he confessed his
guilt and was bound over to answer al
the Circuit Court with Capt. Hoskns as
surety. He also implicated a negro ex'
convict named Isaac Sutton, rs an accom-
plice, and talked knowingly about 9th
or robbcries committed here within the
last few weeks.
! The mere statement above that the
robbery in question was committed by &
conrict is significant enough, but wher
it is still further remembered that thi,
same Tom Anderson was convicted at the
January term of the Lincoln Circui
Court for robbing Rankin's bakery, il
this city, and since that time has been EN-
ployed as a ''trusty" by one of the Peni
Tertiary lessess and allowed to frequent
his old haunts without so much as con
vict's garb to designate his real character
far more vivid idea is presented of thu
farcical nature of our present State con
Wet system.

Here is O fact for you TO think over viz: Medi-
cal science proves that diseases no matter how
great variety they seem to have proceed from
comparatively few causes. Il is for this reason
that some single medicines relieve or cure so
wide a range of c0mplaints-some of them ap-
pearing almost directly opposite in their natures.
when 4 medical preparation acts at once upon
the digestive and urinary organs, aud Also puri-
control are astonishing. But. while many things

ally do exert IL. are very rare

DIR. johnson tells of country man who
brought eggs to the College to sell for
four other women besides his own wife.
On being asked for an explanation, he
said the husbands of these four women
were addicted to drink, and their wives
had discovered by experience that when
they sent their eggs to market by them tc
raise money to buy a few little home com
forts, they would spend the money in the
Brookhaven saloons and get drunk. This
is only another illustration of how whisk,
may draw trade to town. that is, draw
it from the legitimate branches of mer
ehandise into the tills of the saloons.

"Oh, yes" was General .Gordon's

the back Of the settee upon which he
was sitting. 81 was very much i'm
pressed with the modesty and unpre-
tending character of the man. He wore
no uniform except the blue blouse,
overcoat, and breeches--not even a
sword TO betoken his rank. His man
ner was most gracious and courteous.
Not a word escaped him which did not
give evidence Of his purpose Of treating
the defeated Confederates with every
mark of respect and consideration. In
deed, this spirit seemed to actuate all
the Federal officers, with one exception.
They made constant reference to the
battles in which the Confederates had
been victorious, and avoided those in
which the Fedcrals had been successful.
With all their courtesy, however,
and all their kindness, the trial to the Of
ficers and the men was one oft the greatest
through which a brave army has ever
had 10 pass. Men kissed their arms as
they stacked them to be delivered up.

they folded their battle-fags, and in
