Highway Robbery

--On Sunday afternoon, as a youth named H. C. Frayser was going up the Central railroad with a bundle of eatables, &c, for his father, who is a member of Henley's Battalion, he was set upon by three boys named Alexander Clayton, George Kane, and John Kirby, who robbed him of everything he had. They threw the little fellow down and threatened to cut his throat if any resistance was offered. These juvenile robberies have lately been of frequent occurrence, and it is to be hoped that the offenders, if caught, will receive that punishment which their conduct deserves.
