quently arrested him, re-exammed him
and held him a 3 fit for duty. No aiiega
tion of fraud was made, but the reason
given for the re-examination was that the

the women, and it is supposed that
he was under the impression that he

started to run down through Redoubt

Merlons Charge.
Samuel Bixley was held on Friday for

and destroyed on Friday, and by reason
of sundry threats made heretofore he be
heves Bixley to have been the incendiary.
Bixley denies haying made threats against
Gilleland s property, but acknowledges
that he did against hie person because of
the tatter a opposition to Bixley's marriage
wuhhis sietßi*. The case will come up
