The floor was all trodden over around the safe, as if the thieves had been at it for many hours, after which they got it out into the back yard, and as it could not be picked or broken open, they then filled the key-hole with gunpowder, thinking to gain admission by explosion but in which they were again foiled.

To carry this into effect a new Wing is in course of erec tion, with other improvements ; and it is the wish of the Committee, and of several kind friends of the institution, that the expense shall not fall in any great degree on the regular income of the Society (required for the support of Four Hun dred Orphans), but that a separate fund be raised to defray the cost—about 4800.
