IMPORTANT ARREST. On the first Of July
the firm Of James G. Kings Sons sent to the
sub-Treasury for deposit $4,000 in bonds and
two 81, 900 bonds Of the issue of l848. The
messenger delivered the parcel to the clerk;
and while the latter turned for an:lnstant TO ez,
anime the schedule an adroit thief distracted
the bonds and fed. Since then every effort
has been made to find the bonds, as we'll as the
thief who committed the robbery. A few days
ago Inspector Walling learned that man
claiming to be horse dealer, named John
Spiccr, had attempted to negotiate Mexican
war bond corresponding in number to that one
OF the two stolen ut the Sub. Treasury. A
watch was kept upon the mans movements
and last night he was found at the Aston House
and Immediately taken into custody. One
Of the stolen bonds was found on him and prob
ably some light will be thrown as to the where -

Some time ago the goods of a pensioner
at Hampton Court we're seized by the
sheriffs under a civil process. 1t was
eontended that the sherifs had no right
to seize, and the Attorney General
brought an action against them. He
argued that as the building and grounds,
and the guard OF honor, are kept up by
the Grown, and as the apartments are
exempt from taxation, the palace III a
royal domain. Whereupon a London
paper neatly observes that, on the mere
principle of occasional occupation by
Her Majesty, the London Opera House
and the British Museum might be
claimed as royal palaces.
