SARDINIA No one can cross ts frontier
without being struck with the contrast II
presents the other Italian States. While
they are decaying like corpse, it is -four
ishing like the chestnut tree Of its own
mountains. The very faces Of the people
may tell you that the country is free and
prosperous. Its citizens walk about with
the cheerful, active air OF men who have
something TO do and to ENJOY, and not with
listless, responding, heart-sick look which
marks the inhabitants of the other States OF
Italy. Here, too, you miss that universal
beggary and yagabondism that disfgure and
pollute all the other countries Of the Pen
insula. What rich loan the ploughmun
turns up! What magnificent vines shade

Singular cass OF Robbery and Recovery OF Prop

glary having occurred in their district on
the evening of the lst instant. A number
of thieve. brok. into the furnishing store o
Meeley, Beatty & Helfor, No. 1872 Fulton
street, and packed with gentlemen's crayats,
robes, ltaliaa silks and other articles, eight
large sacks, in all goods to the value OF
about 900. This much having been per-
formed. the burglars watched an opportunl-
ty, while the police were ont ofthe immedi-
ate vicinity, to nail one OF Their number
who had charge of horse and wagon at
short distance from the store, The driver
brought horse to the door, and in q moment,
it is supposed the sacks were thrown in the
wagon, and the party started up Broadway
at as rapids rate as possible. They had
not, however, proceeded far, when the wag-
on came into violent collision with six
horse sleigh. The wagon shafts were bro
ken by the accident, and the burglars ss-
hcle rendered perfect wreck, The horse
kicked until he got clear, and ran of with
the shafts, leaving the thieves in most
painful condition, and fearing the police
would overtake :hem, they abandoned the
goods in the middle OF the street, and made
hssty escape. In few minates, officers
Gilmore and Beam of the Third Ward, dis
covered the wagon aud the goods, and had
the property taken 10 the station house
The burglars had managed the job so well,
that il was not till 9 o'clock the netx morn
ing, when the porter went TO the store, that
the scene Of their operations was discover
ed. Three empty bags remained in the
store, and it is probable the rascals intend
