DARING AND AUDACIous BrRG1Any-
CHLoRoroRM AT WoRK.-One Of the mos,
daring and audacous robberies was nerpc-
trated in this city some time during The
hours OF night before last that wo have re-
corded for long time. The residence OF
Captain James 0. Burruss, on Bart street
near Dinw;ddic, was forciblv entered BY
thieves through the rear, and by the liberal
distribution OF chloroform in rendering the
sleeping inmates unconscious the premises
were thorouchly ransacked and every trunk,
bureau, and wardrobe, robbed of whatever
money or light valuablcs they contained. The
thieves got into The house by ascending to q
porch in the rear of the building, and then
forcing the back door from its three heavy
fastcnings. Previous to this, however, q
large quantity Of chloroform, or some other
powerful an@sthctic, must have been intro
duced into the house, as neither Mrs. Bur-
russ nor her daughter heard anything what
ever of the efforts of the burglars. After
getting into the house tie thieves went into
Mrs. BIS room, and deliberately lit the
lamps and oycrhaulcd oil the trunks
and bureaus in the room, throwing the
various clothing in confused heaps ali over
tho floor, and seemingly only searched for
money or jcwclry. After this they went
to the room Of Mr.. Peterson and performed
the same ceremony, breaking open his
trunk and throwing his clothing around
generally, only bent on obtaining money
Tie burglars then visited the lower part of
the house. and took their departure. leavin

A dispatch from the agent of the Associated
Press, at Washington, ays:-"It is known
that the only Official dispatch sent abroad re-
lating to the war was on Friday, when Presi-
dent Grant was in Washington, addressed to
Minister Bancroft but copies of which were
also transmitted to Ministers Washburne and
Motley to the effect, as ascertained at the time
from an altogether reliable source, that while
We cannot act in connection with other nations,
yet if our good Offices should be requested by
both the belligerents, We should be happy to
extend them with view of bringing about q
peace between the two Great Powers with
which we have traditional friendship. Our
Government will scrupulously abstain from in.
terfering with the affairs of foreign nations, if
for no other reason, because it woul d set an
example or afford pretext for foreign Gov
ernmcns hereafter to interfere with our own,
and hence it expresses no opinion as to the
merits of the war. The telegram to Minister
Bancroft was cautiously worded, so as not to
give any ground Tor doubt as to our actual po-
sition OF carefully abstsining from foreign ALI
ances as to the belligerents, while always ready
to exercise the Offices of friendship when they
shall be specifically desired by the nations at
