In a room en the ground-if:or, which is aspirated from hie
office by a glees partition, end one of his waiters steeps in
the aloe :oat a sofa jou opposite him. Happening to be
awake at about 2 o'clock in the night of Tuesday, the land-
lord to his surpriee saw • man enter the office on tiptoe with
a sight-lamp in his hand, and after uoertaining by the
light that the waiter wee asleep, wire the man's clothes,
blow out the light, and turn to leave. The landlord at
Bret fancied that he was dreaming, but his next im-
preesioa was that the men was • lodger in the hones
playing off • joke at the expense of the waiter, end be
mid, 'You are wrong to take the clothes—the man will
think that he has been robbed I Oa that the nocturnal
visitor threw done the clothes, and rushed from the ofiLe
into the street. Perceiving from this that the man must
have entered by the outer door, and that he was °Dam-
quently a thief, the landlord jumped up, and, without stop-
ping to dress, pursued him. After going some little distance
he found a journeyman butcher removing meat from a cart
into a shop, and he cried out to him, ' That man who I. run.
ning there is • thief—go after him cannot, not
being dressed.' The butcher went in pursuit, and
on reaching_ the Carrefour Chilton drew rapidly on the
man; but all at once the latter turned on him, and ex-
claimed, ' Stop, or I will kill you I I am desperate, and
care not what may be the consequences I' at the same time
presenting a pistol at hie !resat. The hitcher, being
startled, stopped short, and the man reamed his light; but
the butcher seeing two police-officers Ix, said,
Pursue him I He is • thief and is armed P One of the
officers overtook the luau la the Rae de la Mlchodlare, and
though threatened by him with his pistol rushed on him
and duped him round the waist. The thief having his
hand free attempted to Ire the pistol, but the other officer
oorniag up wrested it from him; and the two moo, after •
desperate resistance, succeeded, with the assistance of the
butcher, in overpowesing him and in taking him to the lock-
up. There be uses searched. and two loaded pistols, a num-
ber of false keys, and • small candlestick with • malls and
matches ware found on him. It wee afterwards seomtsined
that he lived in the neighbourhood of the Hellas, and in his
lodgings were seized • number of false keys and house-
implements, and • quantity of jewellery, pieces of
lirt= various other objects. Whilst the lei were In

TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION 812 WIEN
AMNIA AND THE UNITED MITES.

Mr. Collins, the United States commercial agent
In to. Assoc., has projected sa overland telegraphic commu-
taicatiou between Russia and the United States through
Northern Europe, Asia, end Americo, by connecting Moscow
with St. Louis, In Missouri, Bebring's Straits. The
length of the telegraph wires would be 14,000 miles, with
only 40 miles of submarine cable. The distances of the
tatervening points between the termini areas follows, via :
Front Moscow to the mouth of the Amcor, 7,000 mike; to
Behring's Straits, 2,600 miles; *cross the Biretta, 40 mites;
to Sea Francisco, 2,600; and to Bt. Louis, 2,000 Wks.
The eel, countries through ;which the telegraph would page
would be Ramie, British America, and the United States.
From Moscow to the month of the Amour the cost
of the line is estimated at 201. per mile, to Behrinsee
Straits 301. per mile, across the Straits (submarine), 1001.
per mile, to San Francisco 601. per mile, and to Sr. Louis
401. • mile. The total mat 500,0001. One thousand men
would be required to maintain the One at an expense of
80,0001. a year, and 100 stations on the line would cost
20,0001. a year. These gams, with the interest on the capi-
tal at 7 per cent., with contingencies, would involve an
annual expenditure of 1360001. 200 ten-word =wages every
week day for the European sad American pram at •dollsr •
word, would yield 126,0001. a year. Basins.. news going met
and west, including Chinese and Japanese news, would, it
is believed, yield 50,0001. a year, so that the telegraph line
would produce an annual income of 176,0001. a year.
The wires would be within a week's reach by
Mew of China and Japan. The line would pass
through Siberia, where there is a population of 8,000,000,
with an annual foreign commerce of 10,000.0001., and through
Tertary, where there Is. Including Mongolia and Manchoo-
' rla, a population of 60,000,000. It may be mentioned that
the Russian government have already commenced a
• telegraphic wire from Moscow to the Amcor, WA=
cameo psi. by the Chinese frontier ; and when It is com-
pleted to the Gulf of Tottery, it will doubtless; not be low
before submarine cables are laid same the seas of Oc.hotsk
and Kamichstka to the Russian possettelmas of North Ame-
rica. Already the land telegraph in the United States lima
extruded from the Atlantic to Aitcheson in Missouri, and had
commenced from the Pada° site to Salt Lake City. The
distance between the latter and Aitcheson is only 1,000
miles.

THE MERSEY DOCK BOARD AND THE LIFE-
NoATs.—The Mersey Dock Beard, at their meeting yesterday,
had a long discussion about lifeboats. The marine committee
proposed tbat two new boats, one known as Peek's—said to
combine the beet qualities of all other lifeboats—end another
built by Messrs. White, of Cowes, should be placed on
Bike* Island. This rozommendstion, so far am regarded
the Cowes boat, was strongly opposed by Mr. Tobin, and
other members of the board, and ultimately the board agreed
to take Peek's boat, rejecting that of Mr. White. Mr.
Tobin eaid that the Liverpool lifeboats were equal to any
in the kingdom, and that since 1840 they had saved 1,786
lives.

THE LIVERPOOL LIFEBOATS AND THE Loss OF

FATAL bTRAH-SHIP COLLISION OFF WAINER.
—Yesterday the Dublin and London steam-ship Foyle,
Captain Higgeneon' arrived in the river, and reported having
been in collieiun on the previous night, in the Downs, with
the brig Campbell, Captain Young, of Maryport, which
went down, and unfortunately one of the crew of the
steamer, in lowering a boat, perished. Between eight sad
nine o'clock the Foyle wee coming through the Downs, with
the wind north east, and on nearing Weimer suet a fleet of
repo la running out of the Dawns. Two were specially
observed by Contain Higeenson on his bow, one exhibiting
the red light sad the other the green. Suddenly the call
showing this red light atarboarded bar halm, and thus
both vessels were brought in close proximity with each
other. A collision appearing inevitable, the order was given
to stop the steamer's engines, but before her progress could
be checked she came in contact with the brig, which imme-
diately tilled and foundered. The boats of the Foyle were
Instantly lowered, and theyaucceeded in picking up the crew,

water. Upon eft:timing to the Foyle considerable oonetertmo
Lion prevailed. It was discovered that the fore compartment
of the vestal had been stove in, and had tilled, end much sp.
prchesskn was felt that she also would go down. Fortu-
nately the bulkheads remained tight, and this preserved the
ship from oinking with all on board. The Campbell had re.
