DARING BURGLART.—SI:III.E'S COtrea•hOUSP,
Carey-street, Lincoln's Inn was on Sunday night broken into
by some daring burglars, who gained an entrance into the cel-
lar by forcing the area Hap, thence they ascended to the attic,
in which four men servants slept, and in which the plate was
deposited, the whole of which they removed without disturb-

made their escape by the street-door, which they left open.—
The watchman on going his rounds finding the door open,

the plate was deposited, it is supposed that he must have been
some person well acquainted with the premises.
