Wei expense incurred.
Mr. Whitlock considered that the Council were in-
debted to the Festival Committee forth. offer they had
now made. The question had been broached some time
previously, when it was referred to the General Pur-
poses Committee. Each member of that committee
was convinced of the desirability of the object; but

The Finance Committee's report was than read by the ,

011 Thursday morning, the premien occupied by Mr.
Dipper, in St. Martin's Church-street, were broken
open, and various articles of wearing apparel '
were stolen. The burglars appear to have effected
an entrance at the back window, having previously
carefully removed the dents, so as not to moues the
inmates. They appear then in the most cool and
deliberate manner to have searched the room. A
coat, two pairs of boots, and a shawl, were carried
off, and the larder was visited, from which a quantity
of meat, bread, and cheese was taken. There was a
double-barreled gun over the flre-pleos, but this
they declined meddle!! with. Several tools were
deo tikes pommies of, and the depredators got
dear off without dneerbiag the aeighbosrbood.
Immediately the robbery we. dissoversd, informa-
tios was given to the pollee, but their efforts to
trace the thieves have as yet proved unesoomadul. '
