THE LATE ROBBERY AT MESSRS. ROGERS AND I 194
Co.'s, IN TILE CITY.—Up to yesterday evening no infer- 24
inetion hal been received by the City police authorities et. it
on the subject of this extraordinary robbery. It is con- al
sidered by those about the banking-house, that the rob-
eper
fiery was committed about the middle of the day on 44
Sunday, and the reasonable inference from that con- 14
jecture is, that the thieves started by railroads to the
several ports from which steamers were speedily to 292'
sail to various parts of the Continent. Messengers were er
sent off by Mr. Hobler to France, Germany, Belgium, p
and other place., and the several telegraphs were set to -
work. It is unnecessary to state that the
greatest exer-

Lions are being made by Mr. liobler, whose experience
and activity I. ad the members of the plundered este- I,2t,i_
blishment to hope that detection may soon follow.— mei.
We are informed that her Majesty has offered a free
128- Ps
pardon to any accomplice concerned in the above affair.
GUERNSBY.—whiIe Jersey is in a state of excite-
ment on account of the proceedings in the Wilson case, the sister island of Guernsey has a little affair of her to io
own to furnish a topic of conversation in parlours and 134
club rooms. Four British gentlemen have fallen into
what is familiarly termed a row. The circumstances
are briefly these :—Mr. M'Donald, who has been a re- toe
sident not many months in the island, became a midi- le'
date for admission into the "Civil and United Service &eel
Club" of Guernsey. Upon bing balloted for, according
to the rules of the club, he was blackballed. He was na- ilas
turally vexed and indignant at the result, and endea-
voured to discover the cause of it. His suspicions at
last rested upon Mr. Armstrong, a member of the club,
who, he believed, had made statements prejudicial to his
character. Mr. M•Doliald, on entering a billiard-room,
was heard to say—" He (alluding, it is supposed, to Mr.
Armstrong) is not here—we must go and find him and
drag him out of the house and give him a licking."
This being mentioned to Major Rybot, Mr. Armstrong's
friend, the Major went to the constable's office and got
Mr. M'Donald bound over to keep the peace towards
Mr. Armstrong. Mr. M'Donald, fired at this interfe-
rence, wrote an offensive letter to the Major, and re-
ceived a similar one in return. Meeting Major Rybot
and Mr. Armstrong in the street,M`Donald asked Major
Rybot what he meant by his letter. The reply was,
that the letter explained itself. Mr. M'Donald then
flourished his stick over Major Rybot, and told him to
consider that it had been laid across his shoulders. The
Major returned the compliment, desiring that Mr.
M‘Donald would entertain a similar agreeable idea.
After a variety of further courteous expressions, the
verbal civility came to more substantial marks of good t
will, and not only Mr. M'Donald, but Mr. Dundas, a
gentleman in his company, fell upon Major Rybot in a
very unsEnglish style—two to one ; the Major, however,
fought so gallantly that he had the best of the battle
until his cane broke. He was then rescued by the inter-
ference of others. We are acquainted with none of the
parties in any way implicated in this affair, with the ex-
ception of Major Rybot, whom we know to be a highly
honourable man and a true gentleman in his manners,
and we think that his conduct in this unhappy matter re-
dounds greatly to his credit. The business was brought
before the Polioe-court of Guernsey on Tuesday last,
when Mr. M'Donald and Mr. Dundas were sentenced to
a fortnight's imprisonment, and to be called upon at the
end of that time to give bail in 501. each; with two sure-
ties of 251. each, to keep the peace towards all her Ma-
jesty's subjects in Guernsey for one year.—Jersey Times. 6per
FATAL ACCIDENT AT WALWORTII.-011 Tuesday jsz

The name of the gentleman who was unfortunately
killed is Slade, aged 27, who resided with his father in r
the Albany-road; the other is named King, from the iper
same neighbourhood. Last night a masquerade took 44 Pe
place in the large room at the rear of the above tavern,
°Per
the staircase leading to which is in the garden, and very
slightly erected. The deceased, Mr. Slade, and several
others, were on the landing at the top of the staircase,
when there was a rush to gain admission into the room.
The doorkeeper, who was at the top of' the stairs, drove e per
the parties back, when the pressure caused the railings 6 per
and a portion of the upper landing to give way. Da- LPer
Ve'r
ceased fell head-foremost on a sharp stone, and literally 7r
smashed his head to pieces. Mr. King fell on his side, Sew
and received several injuries, which are likely to prove 67:
fatal. The police having procured two stretchers,
per
brought the unfortunate gentlemen to Guy v
's Hospital.

Mr. Slade expired on the way. The other wounded
tts pp:
persons were assisted to their residences by the police. _
