and trod on the very threshold of justice will unparallclled impunity at last he was ci 1s09 in robbing the stratford and avon notes to the value of 100000 the robbery was effected by jostling the cashier in a very similar way to that put in force when the notes were stolen from the office of the providence steam boat hi this city he was detected by a broker to whom he repeat edly offered some of the notes to be changed and he was then tried under the name of vyse and again sentenced to be transported for life a second lime he contrived to escape from bota ny bay and in less than a twelve

superior court which decided against him hi has been in prison six month and was sentenced on saturday to be imprisoned at sing sing for four year and six months making in all a period of live years
