ICobbery of the County National
Hank, of Clcariieltl
On Thursday morning, May 15th, our citi
zens were somewhat startled by the announce
ment, that the County National Bank, in
this borough, had been entered by burglars
and robbed of a large amount of money nnd
bonds. A crowd soon gathered at the bank
ing house to view the debris of the demolish
ed vault nnd safe. Upon examination it ap
peared that the burglars had gained access
to the building at tho flout entrance, having
by means of wedges and a bar, wrenched oft
the hasp iuto which the bolts of the lock
enter upon beiug sprung by the key. The
burglars having provided themselves with
a largo supply of tools at three of tho black
smith shops iu town, they next attacked tho
vault door. The vault is constructed of
hf:avy boiler iron, firmly rivited together,
and enclosed within brick walls. The door

knob, by means of which the outer door of
tho vault is locked, with a cold-chisol, and
then, with a heavy sledge-hammer drove in
the iron centre pieco which operates tho bolls,
and smashed tho lock to fragments. Still not
beiug able to get into tho vault, on account
of tho top uud bottoln bolts remaining in
their position, they dug nway a portion of
the brick wall, end then, with an iron wedge,
forced off the clasp that holds the lower
bolt to tho inside of the door, lhe nexj
obstruction, was the inner door of the fire
proof, fastened with a heavy padlock; which
was knocked oil by a blow lrora the sledge-
ainmor. llaviug now gained access to tho
ault, tho next obsticle in the way of tho
burgulars securing their booty, was tho Lil-
ey Uuigiar proot-suio with combination lock.
First they pulled the Lilley safe about two
thirds of its length outsido of the other door,
knocked off the combination knob, aud then
uttempted to drive in and cut to pieces tho
conical-shaped chilled iron centre block iu
which the combination operates. Evidently,
having found this a fruitless effort, they then
plied the heaivsledge-haminer with great
force aud j vunous portions ot tho
front edgesVsafe and door, but succeed
ed only in kuocking off some small scales.
Finally, however, it seems, they found a
weak spot a tluw, more than an inch m
width and about five inches iu length, in tho
ron ot the door, to the left ot the combina
tion, lhe iron covering this defect in tho
door was only about a quarter of an inch in
thicUuess, aud the inside aoout bait an inch.
The outside portion over the flaw having
een brokou in with the sledge-hammer, they
next drove a heavy steel punch through tho
niter part ami into the combination, brenk
ng the lock iuto pieces. From appearances,
the burgulars evideutly had a hard job ou
baud, and oue which must have taken them
perhaps more than an hour to accomplish,
us the iron through which they forced their
way, is literally covered with dents and
marks; and tho great wonder is that they
did not alarm the whole town by the. great
number of heavy blows tbey struck to secure
their end. The xobbery must have been com
mitted between miduight and morning, and
the amount secured by the burgulars was
815,000 in money and S t. 500 in government
hoods. I he Hircctors met at once, and offer
ed a reward of 5,000 for the apprehension
of tho burglars aud the recoyery of the
money and bonds. Persons were speedily
sent in various directions but the robbers
have not, asyet, been apprehended. Ital'ts-

Pacific Railroad Income The an
nual income of the Paoifio Hail road frou
its through trade it is e&tiniatsd, will
amount to $00,000,000. Tbus, in 18G8,
the goods transported both ways, between
San Francisco and the Atlantio ports,
amounted to 500,000 tons, including 30,
000 tons sent over tho incomplete railway.
The passengers in 1867 amounted to over
150,000 persons, and this number, it is be
lieved, will be trebled in 1870. On tho
supposition that the Pacific Hailroad ob
tains 150,000 tons of freight, at $35 a ton,
and 331,000 passengers, at $150 each, the
returns will eruouut to Dearly sixty millions
of dollars, as stated. In this calculation,
no account is taken of the way business.
