ANEcDoTE OF SIR FREDERICK BRUCE The
Washington correspondent of tine New York
Commercial Advertiser relates the following
incident of the late British Minister:
The horses of Sir Frederic Bruce are to be-
sold by auction on Tuesday, and his furniture
will soon go under the hammer. Unlike most
of the diplomats, he had not an article of sill
yer ware in his house, and he used to narrate
with great glee how, on going down stairs
one morning, his servants found that burglars
had entered the house during the night, but
had found that all the coveted forks, spoons,
&c. Were plated, and had left them. ~.
