'The English authorities have arranged for
Ills prosecution in due form upon his con
fession, the evidence taken at the inquest,
aud the testimony of Burvivors who have

A Spunky Merchant.
A dispatch from Middleton, N. Y., says:
At Jlorsston Station, in Sullivsiu county,
yesterday morning, three masked tuon en
tered the store of Divine, Dubois & Co. to
rob the safe. They wakened Wilbur Deu
man, the junior partner, gagged him, and
with threats of cutting his throat domauded
that he should open the safe, which has a
combination lock. Denman refused, when
they Inflicted Berious injuries upon him ;
during the struggle he tore the masks from
the faces of two of them. Failing in their
attempt, they tied his hands to the stove
and his feot to the safe and loft without
taking anything. lie was unconscious when
released, aud remained so during all day
Sunday. This is the third attempt made
to rob the store within a few years, Mr.
Denman being attacked both time.
