AN INGENIOUS SCHEME OF VtbLAtNY.-
The most barefaced and artful specimen Of
villainous schemeing that has come under
our observation for a long time, was acct
dentally discovered, in consequence Of a
large wagon laden with heavy blocks Of
granite passing down Jackson street, and
when near the corner of Drum, disappear
ing suddenly through the street, no open
ing being visible prior to the occurrence
taking place. On examination, after the
horses had been rescued and the wagon
withdrawn, the discovery was made that
the supports of the street planking under.
meath for about 10 feet square, had been
bored through for the purpose of weakening
them in several places, evidently to occas-
ion the falling through of some heavily Ia,
den vehicle. The street underneath at this
portion of it is accessible by water.
The general opinion seems to be that The
perpetrators Of this plot designed robbing
the specimen cart on its way to the steamer
from one of the banking establishments in thi'
city and their scheme was not quite com
pleted, evidently leaving the finishing
stroke until a few moments before the arri
val of the cart, intending there is not tn
slightest doubt to be fully prepared with
conveyance underwriting nd immediately
the cart fell to grab their booty and decdml
with all possible speedi it is a pity tina
the inventive genius of the scoundrel
| could not be made to subserve some worth
Ter purpose.-San Francisco Herald.

Ez-The EUeHiaS Post in speaking Of
the erection of an Essay Office in New
York, says:
An ingenious continuance is employed
to protect the treasare in the vaults from
the attacks Of burglars. A space is hollow
ed out in the granite blocks before they are
put together, large enough to admit a six
pound ball, which, when inserted in the
cavity, will move very readily to the touch.
Should a thief attempt to drill a hole
thrdugh the mortar between the blocks,
his drill in som part of the passage will
come in contact with one of the balls and
it cannot proceed any further but will
merely turn the ball round in the socket.
This arrangement will also have the eff
feet of keeping the blocks in their places,
should the mortar be taken from the inter-
stices. We believe this is the first time
this method of building vaults has been
tried in this country, although it has been
in use soihe time in Europe.
