The Commissioners of Lancaster county deem it due to the ends of public justice, that every effort should be made to detect and punish the offender, and therefore offer Fifty Dollars reward for his ar rest and conviction. 0 Mrs. Finefrock describes the person who com mitted the outrage, as a foreign German, about 30 years of age, some 5 feet 7 or 8 inches high,rather stout, and full in the face, without whiskers, with long, dark hair, and thinks he was slightly pock marked. The person wore, at the time, a blue sack coat, blueish vest, and light colored striped or flowered pantaloons, a cloth cap. and boots. He spoke rapidly and in a loud tone of voice. He car ried with him from the house 6ome receipts and papers belonging to Emanuel Finefrock, and 87* ceuts in silver. JOHN WITMER, HENRY MUSSELMAN, DAVID STYER, Jan 8-50tf] County Commissioners.
