. A Clear fielder Robbed is IIakhisbfbg. '
In the Telegraph of the 24th April, we find the
following in the Court proceedings of that
day : " Com. vs. George G as t rock and Sam
uel Uoupt, indicted for robbery on the oath of
Michael Dinges. Tho defendants are two
young men of our city, and the prosecutor is
a raltsroan. From the evidence it appeared
that be was met by the defendants between
cloven and twelve o'clock on Friday night last,
and after some conversation they enticed him
down to the river under the pretence of tak
ing him home. After they got biiri there they
demanded bis money under the threat that
they would kill him. .They obtained some
6 dollars in cash from him and also a knife and
port monnaie. The offence was clearly pro
ven, and the prisoners had no testimony to
offer. The jury convicted tbeni of the offence
charged."
... Sad Occirresck A Child Drowsed
The Motuer Savet. On last Tnesday, April
24tb, the wife of Mr. Abimelech Alexander,
of Woodward township, returning from a visit
to her mother, Mis. Miles, got a man at Po
sey's sawmill, near Alexander's fording, to
take her across tho creek, in a skiff or flat.
When near the opposite shore, tho man droj
ped a bottle of whisky from bis pocket, and in
endeavoring to recover it, fell and upset the
boat, precipitating JfPs. Alexander and child
as well as himself, into the stream a short dis
tanco above the dam. A person on tLe shoie
saw tbe accident, threw a plank to the toman
and made other exertions to render her assis
tance, but before be could reach her, the wo
man, with one arm over the plank and holding
the child in the other, was carried over the
breast of tbe dam. The man who was trying
to render assistance, hurried with all possible
haste around the mill, and seeing tbe woman
disappearing in tho re-action water, jumped.
in and succeeded, at tho imminent peril of his
own life, in catching hold of her and bringing
her safe to shore. The child, unfortunately,
was drowned, and at lust accounts its body had
not been recovered. The conduct of the per
son'who rescued the woman, is highly praise
worthy, and we are sorry that we have not been
ebio to learn his name. We understand that
the proprietor of the bottle or " Jersey light
Ding " has disappeared. "
Bloodt Mtstert. There is a cave, says the
Pittsbnrg Journalt fn the honey -comb

iue upper cirmingnam bridge, on the
