UNFORTUNATE CAsUALTY,-We learn
with great regret that a son of Mr.. George
Pritchard, a promising youth, was drowned
yesterday in Mr.. Bensick's Floating Bath,
at the foot ofCanal street. He was accom-
panied, as Is customary with The pupils q the
Public Shoots, by a police officer, and Ben
sic himself employs a man for the purpose of
preventing accidents.
1t seems, that shortly after Young Pritehard
entered the bath. a cry was rsised that he
was sinking; but although an attempt was
immediately made to rescue hh lie was not
from the water until life was extinct

EXTENSIVE RoBBERY,-A Carpet bag,
containing $1,000, in gold, in two bags equal
" divided, was sent BY the American Ex.
change Bank of New York to the Meriden
Bank of Connecticut, and deposited in the
mates state room on board the steamer
Champion.-During The passage through
the sound to New Haven, some one effected
an entrance to the room, forced open the car
pet bag and stole one OF the bags, containing
$4,000, with which he managed to escape,
leaving the bag behind him, with the amount
marked upon it. From the fact that the thief
left the other bag, as also a package Of So,
$50 in bills for the Phoenix Bank Of Hartford,
undisturbed, 1t is supposed that the robbery
was effected by some green hand at the
business-probably by some one employed
upon the boat. A special messenger from
Hartford met the boat at New Haven and
received the carpet bag, but did not discover
his loss till in the cars some twenty miles
from New Haven. Information was speedi-
Iy conveyed to New York, and two of the
hands on board the Champion were arresl ed
but as yet no clue has been discovered to the
burgIary.-Bee.
