BOLD ROBBERY. ,

N0 little excitement was caused in New
York zofié’l‘uesday morning, by the discovery
that the iron safe in charge of the Express
Messenger on the night expresstrain from
Boston to New York, was missing, together-
witliits contents. The: safe was at “first re-
ported to.have . contained 3150.000, but the
amount has since been ascertained not to ex-
ceed 316.000. The'robbery was supposed to
have taken place between New Haven and
New .YOrk, inthe temporary absence of the
Messenger-While in the mail car, of which
the 'robberdiwhohad probably been on the
alert, tools-advantage and pitched the safe out
of a side door'to the ground. Locomotives,
messages, and handmrs—were promptly dis
'patched'alOng the route, but no trace of the
robbersor safe were found until , ThirrSday,
when-the safe was discovered beside a stone
wall just beyond the cut, between _ this town
and Westport. On. Monday night' it was
known that one man had got off the Express
train attire Westport draw and another at
the'Norwalk draw, both of whom had pur-
chased tickets through to New York. It is
prObable that the man who got out at our
draw-bridge was the one who threw out the
safe, and then walked back to meet his cons
federate. The safe weighed about 200Vlbs.
when-empty, and it could not have been a
very easy thing to have thrown out, 'yet the
feat uneaceomplished, and that without ar-
resting attention. After it was discovered by
the,,t,hieves, it was taken over" the stOne wall
and the bottom out through with cold chisels
and the money abstracted. The safe was’ ta—
ken up to Westport depot, and from thence
to Bridgeport by the 12.14 P. M. train from
New York,and was thence senttoNew ,York.

The Messenger, Elias Woodward, had been
in the employ of the Co. for along time, and
there was no suspicion as to his integrity.—
He'violated the instructions of the Company
in" leaving his post, and-for this he was imme-
diately discharged. The contents of the safe
arethus described: ,
tén’llenr3500 bills of the Atlantic Bank of Bos-

n~=

$8Jl00 I in bills, newly issued, from the
Iian‘gdon Bank, of Dover, N. H. .

'_ A number of notes of- varrous amounts.
. Three coupons, of $25 each, of the Bank
of 'COmmerce, N. Y.- .
Notes belonging to: Rathbone Brothers,and
some smaller amounts in money.

i— Another safe, containing some 335.000 was
left, undisturbed. It will be difficult for the
robbersto dispose of a good portion of their
spoils without detection, and there may be a
chance yet for the arrest of the perpetra-
tors of this daring crime.

.' The Company promptly cashed all receipts
for lost packages, thus oecasioning neither
loss of. time nor money to those who trusted
them. '

._ .It » is thought the two men who left the
train may be identified, and thus the robbers
may ,be detected, but success does not
look-very promising just at present.

In our notice week before last, of .the new

been long and favorably known to the New

Wood Type bymachinery. He is a reliable,
courteous, liberal and honest man; in fact, we
have seldom, if ever, had so long and so large
a business relationship, with any one, with so
little cause of complaint of inaccuracies or
delays. In his new position, that of supply—
ing Printers with everything they require,
from a sixpcnny bodkin to a forty thousand
dollar cylinder press, we think he cannot
fail to securca large and successful trade, for
if his business relations with .the rest of the

Presidential Candidates.

As it seems lobe tho fashion for the press
to suggest names for Presidential candidates
the staid editor of the Bridgeport Manda-I'll
has taken occasion to present his views on
that. subject, and while doing so has given a
hint to the Republican Conventton to be held
at Chicago, of no trifling import, to avoid the
rock upon which the. party was stranded in
1856. The editor says:

‘: Antone the candidates to be voted for at
Chicago, fudge McLean is spoken of by stirr-
dry papers. Our ticket would be John Mc
Lean for President and Edward Bates for
Vice-President. The latter might well con-
sent. to take the second place under McLean.

If Jud M. had been nominated iii 1 56
he won d have carried Pennsylvania and
New Jersey, with the other States that went
for Fremont. So thought Gov. Marcy. He
would not have had MI. Fillmore as o‘eompet-
itor, and there would have been no ”(’le ticket
at the North. ,

Judge M. is over 70 years of age, but Is not
as old as Gen. Cass—not as old as the British
Premier—and he is eight or time years
younger than Chief Justice Taney. If not
too old for the Bench, he is not. too old for
the White House. -

It would be difficult to persuade anybody
that he wants to destroy the Unron. or that.
he is not sufficiently conservative In. hrs sentr-
mentsL' His eminent ability, tested by_ forty
years of public service, is not to be questioned.
And so we go for McLean and Bates.”

——With regard to the Democratic Presiden-
tial nominee, the impression seems to be that
Senator Douglas will in the end obtain the
nomination. as he is backed, it is said, by 170
positive votes, out of the 303, to begin with
—wlriclr, it is contended, will, on the ‘ second
or third ballot, be _ augmented to 253, or‘52
more than the two-thirds required to nomi-
nate. , This predication may. or may
not be correct, but one thing is certain, that
the partisans of Douglas will leave no stone
unturned to carry out their purpose. Charles-
ton will see such an elephant as was never
before exhibitcd in that latitude.

STEDMANB’ POEMS, LYRICAL AND IanLIc,
are out—a neat little 75 cent volume of .ex-
'tremely graceful and pleasant, reading. A
coternprary bestows a ajudicious word upon
the leading pieces of the book, as follows:

The poems seem to be honest transcripts
of the writer’s moods, and wholly free from
modern ensuousness, forced conceits and
sentimental foolishness. If not great poetry
it is yet healthy, and some of it is graceful in
sentiment as it is in rythm. “Penelope” is
perhaps the. most finished poem, one of the
few that that willcare to read twice, and this
old story of woman’s love and tenderness
has seldom been more felicitously told. The
“ Heliotrope” embalms ‘a very delicate fancy.
The “Protest of Faith” is an earnest plea for
that simple, trusting faith that leans on'Love
The Tribune Lyrics, on “ La er Bier” which
has much quiet humor, the “ iamond Wed-
ding” which owes its reputation to the occa-
sion, and‘a stirring account of old John
Brown’s raid on Harper’s Ferry, which n-
tains some right down manly aud,nerv us
stanzas, are reproduced. '

- the water from 25,000 pounds of sugar in 2 1-2
hours, that is about 50 tons per day.

In refining sugar, the brown material is
dissolved and brought in contact with the
purifying matters in a state of solution, after
which the water in which it is dissolved must
be removed by eva ration, and the sugar
again granulated. . 11 order thattlre evapora-
tion may take place at a lower temperature
than at which water will boil under the pres-
sure of the atmosphere, l-llOSe tight and strong
vessels called vacuum pans are used. The
vapor as it arises is condensed by a jet of cold
water, and the water is drawn away by pumps
by which means the pressure on the surface
of the liquid is reduced,"'a'nd boiling or eva )-
oration goes on at a lower temperature. 11
the vacuum pans of sugar refiners, this tern-
pcrature ranges from 140 deg. to 170 (leg,, in-
stead of 212 deg, the boiling point in the open
air. The heat Is supplied by aicoilof steam
pipe in the bottom of the pan, and a small
circular plate of glass is inserted in the pan
near the top to enable the workmen to watch
the operation. ' - ' -

Mr. Harrison says that 14 years ago, when
he commrnced the manufacture, all the va-
cuum pans were imported from abroad, most-
ly from England and Belgium, but now the
importation has almost wholly ceased, ex-

Another Duel in Sight.

Hon. Robert J. Walker sent a peremptory

challenge to Attorney General Black about
four o‘clock Thursday afternoon last, by the
hauds'of Senator Brown of Mississippi. Mr.
Black verbally declined accepting the invita-
tion without explanation.
‘ The publication of Buchanan’s letter pro-
duced greatex‘citement in Washington. The
occasion of the challenge is the part of Schna-
bcl’s testimony which repeats what Mr-
Black said to him in regard to this letter:

He was in a state of great excitement.—
When I referred a second time to havingsecn
it, he again, in high rage, declared that I was
in gross error; that the President never wrote
such a document ;_ and if Gov. Walker or any
other person pretended to have such a docu-
ment, it was a mere pretense to cover up a
perpetrated or intended treason to the Dem-
ocratic party, or a mere pretext for descrting
to the Black Republican ranks. He further
added, that if any one attacked the adminis-
tration on this ground, (to use his exacts
words) “We will put a shirt upon him from
which he will never escape.” ,

The President charges the publicaiion of
this bomb-shell docrunent .to theimprudent
language of the Attorney General, arrd’a
change in the Cabinet is already spoken (if

it my duty, and made it my business, to make
those articles known wherever I went among.
my friends. A short time ago I became ac-
quainted with the case of a. young girl, who
seemed to be troubled with worms and liver
complaint at the same time, and had been
suffering for some two months. Through
my persuasion she purchased one bottle of
Dr. M’Laiw’s Vernnfuge, and one box of Lie-
er Pills, which she took according to direc-
tions. Tire .result was, she passed a. large
Quantity Of worms, and thinks that one box
more of the Pills will restore her to perfect
health; Her nameand residence can be learn’d
by calling on E. L. Theall, Druggist, corner
of Rutger and Monroe streets. _

Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR.
M’LANE’s CELEBRATED Vnmnvoon, manu-
factured by FLEMING Bnos, of Pittsburgh,

ted Liver Pills, can now be had at all respec-

Home for its guests. Its location and sur.
roundings are not surpassed by any Summer

House thus writes:
“ Our Norwalk Elmsare - not surpassed by ,
even New Raven’s lukuriant forest, but droop
their willowy brmrches as if to send a we].

hours are invariably spent driving ’neath the
fresh green foliage which afi‘Ords such a grate: ' .
ful shade to its quiet sequstered streets. . -
To the pleasure seeker its beautiful Harbor
affords superior facilities for sailing and fish-
mg. . Of its far famed Oysters we can add
nothing to their reputatiOn. Those who have
passed the summer months in this delightful
vrllage can we" endorse its beauties.
The choreest viands of every clime .an
season find their way to our Hotel table, and
our landlord s and landlady’s ready hearts and
wrlhug hands greatly conduce to the comfort
of all our large company of guests. If you
should ever seek a pleasant, a beautiful a ge-
nrnl and delightful Summer ‘ Home” don’t
finl of vrng _the worthy proprietor, of the
Arms oust: your first engagement.”
