The house was cccupied by a family named Bernard, A youn‘g girl of that family had instituted a suit for damazes against Dobbs, who was her uncle, on a charge of outrage while living in his family about a year ago. The motive of Dobbs in desir« mg to blow up the house was to avoid this second suit, he having been compelied to pay four. thousand dollars© dam ages as ‘the result of a suit previously brought by the girl‘s parent. The plot to destroy the house and its inmates was beâ€" trayed by one of the men hired by Dobbs to assist in it, and the authoritiese were enabled to catch the parties in the very t of firing the gunpowder. Dobbs kd during the night, but was retaken noinmomm' , Taken to Mans, field he strangely enough, allowed to go, enter the bail for his appearance in the sum ot $500, b:?tb another was permitted to go on a barff of $400. It is thought that Dobbs, who is a rick man, his fortune being var ously estimated at from $50,0 °0 to $250,000, will never appear for trial. The citizens of Mansfield were talking of a vigilar ce committee to punish him at last accounts. 7 Forkâ€"Quiet and steady at â€"$18.12} to $18.25 for new mess, _ x > % Lardâ€"Dull and unchanged at 8}¢ for steem, and 87]¢ for kettle.
