BOLD BANK RoBBERIEs.-TheP equonnock
Bank robbery recently, which was so pro-
found mystery for the time, it is believed,
was effected in this wise On the day Of the
robbery, while the cashier vas alone, q
stranger entered, called the cashier to the
counter, and engaged him in conversation
relative to obtaining loan on Government
securities. Il now seems not at all impro-
bable that while the cashier was engaged
at the counter confederate slipped in at
the rear door and passed into the vault,
secured the first box that he found handy,
which CHANGED to be that Of Mr.. Hotchkiss,
containing 100000 in securities, and made
off. To do this would not require two
minutes to person practiced in such ex-
PLOTS, and the heavy carpet and mating on
the floor of the bank would tell no tale were
the thief lightly shod. This was bold, but
not more bold than common. A year or
two ago a person entered the Importers
and Traders Bank, New York, in broad
daylight, took off his coat, put on buster,
stuck pen behind his ear, and then walked
deliberately past clerks, tellers, and cashier,
and pushing the president aside, who stood
talking with some of the directors, entered
the vault and helped himself to the largest
trunk he could find, and walked out uDmo-
Tested, no one suspecting that anything was
wrong until he was off and out of sight.

1,poRrAST MOVEMENT IN VIRGINIA.

IMPORTANT MOVEMENT IN VIRGINIA.
washington letter in the Baltimore Gazette
says:
IA very important reconstruction move
.no,t 10 reported here as going on in Vir
Ma 1t being regarded as settled thing
shSt Congress will inevitably give universal
,,araee to the colored people, the white
n,rnlation have come to the conclusion
hat the best thing they can do is to con-
,c5e universal suffrage to the negroes, pro-
vi1cd the same privilege be accorded to the
rb,,e race, thus putting the two races. as
:, suffrage, On the came footing. 1t is
therefore proposed that the Conservative
State Executive Committee designate two
~.n,lemen from each congressional district,
r meet in Richmond about the middle
# January, TO frame new constitution,
selecting the best parts Of all its predeces-
so-s. and embodying universal suffrage for
10Th whites and blacks--in other words, to
sIopt Judge Chase's and Mr.. Greelcy's no
ton of universal suffrage and universal
smnesty-this compound constitution to be
submitted, with the consent Of Congress,
along with the pending negro-supremacy
constitution, TO the people and the one
adopted by the people to be the Constitution
Of Virginia. John B. Baldwin, Esq,
heads this new movement, but it is under
stood that many other prominent men
hitherto opposed to universal negro-suffrage
will now cooperate with Mr.. Baldwin in the
movement, which will probably be success
iul on y popular vote.'
This is not true as to MIR. Baldwin's part
in the movement. He is not at the "head -

LET Us HAVE PEACE."-A few days
ago respectfully dressed lady appeared at
General Grants headquarters and asked
his influence to secure an office under the
Government, enforcing her application upon
the plea that she had two sons killed in the
late war. General Grant heard her story,
and then turned her over to General Dent,
instructing him to further inquire into the
matter, and if the case was a really worthy
one 10 use his (Grant's) name in recon-
mending her for position in one of the
Departments. General Dent, in turn, lis
tened to her story, and finally asked her
under what general her sons were serving
when they lost their lives. The lady hest
tated, and finally replied: Well, to tell
the truth, sir, one was serving under Gene
raj Ewell and the other under Colonel Mos
by" The interview terminated at once,
and General Grant did not endorse the ap-
rlic4tion for observation-disclosures San.

CLAIMS ABASDoNED.-The Government
has abandoned the claims against Peru in
the Georgiana and Lizzie Thompson case.
4 convention was made with Peru for the
submission of the case to the decision Of
the King Of Belgium. That monarch, in
January, 1864, declined to act as umpire,
intinating an opinion that if he did so he
would be obliged to decide against the
claims. The principles which this Govern
ment asserted and adhered TO during the
late rebellion in respect to its rightful
power TO close ports in the possession of in
surgents TO foreign commerce would natu-
rally lead US to expect rejection Of these
claims. Their further prosecution has
therefore been indefinitely suspended

a LAMENTABLE HOMICIDE IN THE WEST
The St. Joseph (Mo.) correspondent of the
St. Louis Republican gives the following
particulars of the tragedy, resulting in the
death of Baltimorean, heretofore briefly
mentioned ,',.@
"Our city was thrown into the greatest
agitation this evening at the announcement
of the killing of Mr.. Joseph l.. EARLY, a
well-known lawyer and prominent citizen,
by Mr.. T. A. Green, also lawyer. The
difficulty originated from newspaper cor
respondence. On the I'D instant an anony-
nous communication was published in the
Herald Of this city ridiculing Mr.. Green
but not characterized by especial bitterness.
This morning reply appeared in the same
paper over the signature of Mr.. Green, of the
greatest bitterness. Very opprobrious cpl
thets were applied to Mr.. EARLY. Every
body, especially the members Of the bar,
expected difficulty. About o'clock this
afternoon Green and Early met near the
corner Of Fourth and Francis streets, where
an encounter occurred. Both gentlemen
had pistols, but they were not used except
to strike with in the onset; but after their
separation Mr.. Green drew his and fired,
the ball taking effect near-:he heart of Mr..
Early, causing almost instant death. Mr..
Green was Immediately taken il custody
by the sheriff, and is now in Jail. Mr..
Early is from Baltimore, having been only
some four years in the West, the last eigh-
teen months of which he has resided in this
city. He leaves wife. Mr.. Green is from
Galena, H., and has been in this city less
than year. He has wife and four chill
dren."

REFRIGERATING RAILROAD CAns.-Cnthe
track of the Hudson River railroad, New
York, there is at present railroad cor de-
signed for the transportation Of fruit, feb
flesh, and other perishable productions ct
the animal and vegetable kingdoms, long
distances at moderate cost and without de-
terioration. The car is so constructed that
any degree of cold from zero upwards cen
be obtained, and in such manner that
while the most delicate fruits may be pre-
served for weeks they will not be frosted.
The car is, in fact, a huge fruit or meat
preserver, acting on the principle of the
preserving jar or can, the only difference
being that one obtains by the introduction
of cold what the other secures by heat
namely, the expulsion Of the atmosphere.
