TIE JERSEY CRY BANK RoBBERy-The New
York Express OF the eth, gives the following &C.
count of the discovery of the money robbed about
three months since from the Mechanics and Trad.
cas- Bank OF Jersey City:
On the Goth, Dudley J. Gregory, Jr., about to 90
70 u hreman's procession in EliZabethtowp went
IHso the room of young Mr. Fox, the son of the
Cashier of the Bank and took his freman's CAP
The Foxes and the Gregories were SO intimate that
there was nothing thought of taking such liberty
When young Fox had heard that young Gregory
had gone on with his frernan's cap to Elizabetown,
he Immediately started after him in the next train
and meeting the person whom the cap was taken
for, and on whose head it was he forthwith took it
ot-wlfhout any ceremony-and took from it, but
not uhobserved, the amount about $1,000 which
he had secreted in his cap.
tits stated that Mr.. Fox, the cashier. had made
mp the loss some time ago to the bank because the
keysswere taken from his own house-but had no
suspicion of his SON This robbery, occurring
among parties so highly respectable has created
much excitement.
The Express of the 18th states that Mr.. Fox the
younger, denies explicitly that there were $4,000
In the cap-that he only took therefrom $3.50,
which he had placed there for safe keeping. An
examination of the matter was to take place on
Thursday.

ITO THE FRIENDS OF EDUCATION

Il " - 1sAA<ANA/tO VI 1DOSa4lON
Il MISS LYFORD, having recently arrived in
this city, from Baltimore, is DESTROYS of forming
Glars of pupils in MUSIC and FRENCH She is
aware that the time usually chosen by parents and
guardians for selecting the Instructors of their
tiers and wards is past but she does intend to
teach the English branches she believes that her ad.
vertisement will not be considered out of place
Miss b. desires TO call especial attention to her plan
OF teaching French. Instruction In the language is
given IN manner that enables the scholar to com
mence conversation in it almost immediately and
thus to acquire perfect knowledge of it with great
facility. 1t has been the of Miss L. to canse
her pupils TO begin conversation as soon as they ac
quire the rudiments of the language: conseauently
they do not labor under the disadvantage experienced
in many schools of being unable spe ak it or to m
derstand it when spoken; though perhaps perfectly
able to read and write it. Miss L. commenced the
study of the French in early childhood continued it
under native teachers, and completed it ia distin-
Don Calderon de la Barca, late Minister from Spain
to the United States.
Music, Vocal and instrumental is taught according
to the plan pursued by the most eminent Professors
of Baltimore. As the attention of Miss Lyford has
been particularly directed to the study of Music and
teaching these branches of polite education, she
hopes that she may be deemed worthy of the conf
dence of discerning public.
Besides the names appended, which are all it is
thought necessary to publish from an extensive list
Miss refers to the parents of her scholars in Essex
ties: in the two last named she has been teaching
the above branches in conjunction with the English
for the last three years
1t is the wish of Miss Lyford to commence her
course OF instruction early in the month of January
lS5i All whe are DESTROYS of entering the classes
her terms will be made known.

dams not taxed and three-ffths Of all other
persons-that is, three-ifths Of the slaves. This
determines the representative power Of the
States, not shareholders or any particular class.
In determining how many representatives Vir-
ginis for example, is entitled to, the whole
number of free persons and three-ffths Of her
slaves, constitute the basis of calculation.
1t is true, as IgnOtuS says, that the majority
of the voting population Of the South are COM
posed of non.slaveholders, and they have the
power to abolish Slavery; but their views and
prejudices and habits are as adverse to eman-
cipaton as those Of the shareholders. Although
they have no personal interest in maintaining the
system, they are trained to believe otherwise;
they are trained to believe that Slavery ministers
to the wealth and prosperity of the State, and
that the emancipation of the slaves would de-
grade them, iniure directly their interests and
endanger their lives. Besides, the Shareholders,
being generally the landholders and capitalists,
monopoiize the political power of the State.
They have social position, unity of interest and
purpose, the wealth, the intelligence, and the
control of the press so that they WELD, at
their own will, and for their own interests, the
entire representative power of the South.

Reported Flight Of The EmperOr.-A friend
has placed at our disposal letter from Mr.,
Parker, Secretary of the United States Legs-

copy

Gehul, in Tartary and that Prince Wei Chin,
fifth brother of Taou Kwang, was left in charge
of the Empire, and that the insurgent troops
were within six days of Pekin at that date.
This news bears marks of probability, and
the source of my information is as reliable rs
any we can ordinarily get in China.
Gin speaking with the British Consul this
evening he informed mo that he heard the
same news two or three days rince, which cor
RESPONDS with the time my informant states the
intelligence reached this city.
Mr.. Robertson seemed to receive the intel
lgence with some doubt can only say that
! think it very likely to prove true, and that
Prince Wei Chin is the man of all others who
would be most likely to be called upon to take
the reins of Government.
| "He is the man who is said to have written
faou kwangs answer to the Presidents letter,
delivered in 1914 by Mr.. Cushing"
