The settlers of tho village of Epsom have experienced somo alarm in consequence of two houses in tho neighbourhood having been entered by thieves, aud robberies effected. The police havo received a somewhat vague report of tho robberies from which it appears that the houses of Mr Ernest R. Hill, and Mr Head, have been entered, and' what is tho moro remarkable, in broad daylight, and that articles of jewellery were takon from the house of Mr Hill, but nothing of valuo has been missed from the residence of Mr Head, although search had evidently been made. The parties were from homo at the time, and possibly watched away by the intruders. Tho cases arc in the hands of Detective Jeffery, who is diligently making enquiries with the view of discovering the thieves.
