Alorton, C. E. Thompson and" Den Thompson, who have been lately upon examination before Police Justice, McNabb, charged with robbing the. Alercbariis" Union Express Company on tho 1st erf' May , last, on the lino of the Hudson river railruad. Both of these robberies were of such a nature as to canse a great deal of attention from the Express companies of the United States.

The only evidence to contradict this, is that of Denman Thompson, who was dis charged by Justice McNabb, andxrho then hnblnshingly, and-without an attempt to say that he had any cause other than that of jus tification of the robbery which the prisoners bad committed, testified that be was one of the parties to make up a combination between Putnam Wilson Brown, the messenger, L S.
