The houses and stores of our citizens have been broken open and almost everything of value either taken away or want only destroyed.

J. went to the camp of Col. Duryea to make a statement of his grievance, and had the satisfaction of an assurance that if he would point out the guilty parties they should be severely punished !! To show that these
