A HEAVY ROBBERY.
SIS. 900 in Bonds AbStracted from
the Office of a Well Known
Law Firm.

The Office of Messrs Semmes & Mott, at
torneys-at-law, was on Thursday evening en-
tered and despoiled of eighteen bonds Of the
city Of New Orleans, for one thousand dol
lars each, issued to the New Orleans, Jackson
and Great Northern Railroad Company.
The bonds are all payable in twenty years
from date, and are now over due They are
the property Of Mr.. W. S. Peterkin, o client
OF Messrs. Semmes & Mott, and are sued on
in the case Of W. S. Peterkin vs.. the city Of
New Orleans, No. 1897, United States Circuit
Court.
The case was to have been tried on Thurs
day, and the bonds were taken to court to be
used as evidence, but as the case was not
called, they we're returned to the Office Of
these attorneys, and care!essly thrown upon
the table. 1t is supposed that some one en-
tering the Office during the afternoon caught
sight Of the bonds, and thinking them to be
of great value, either slyly purloinel them at
the time, or returned after the office was
closed for the night and stole them.
The Office presented no indications Of hav-
ing been forc;bly entered, and no confusion
was noticeable about the papers Or books
lying upon the desk. The loss has been ad-
vertised and small reward offered for their
return. 1t is expected tia. when the thief
discovers the fact the. they are to him value
less, he will return them and claim the reward
IL the meantime all persons are cautioned
against purchasing them.

HONE AGA1N.-The many friends Of
A. W. Pratt were pleased to welcome
him home again on Wednesday last,
from brief trip to Europe.
He left here July 18th, in company
with MIR. P. B. Mann, and proceeding
to Quebec, via the Grand Trunk rail-
road and St. Lawrence river, took pas
sage from that city in the steamer Pc
ruvian, Of the Allan line, for London
derry, Ireland. From there he went
by rail to Belfast. He describes the
trip through this part of Ireland as de-
lightful. He was next conveyed to
Glasgow, Scotland, by steamer. Pass
ing thence through the trossachs, with
opportunities to see and admire lochs
Lomond and Katherine, and a days
rest at Stirling, he reached Edinburgh,
where he saw all the sights. He was
fortunately possessed Of letter intro
ducing him to resident Of that city,
by whom he was most Hospitality re-
ceived.
From Edinburgh he proceeded to
London, where three days we're spent.
Hence he went to Paris, and remained
five days.
On his return he came first to Lon
don, then to Manchester and Staley
Bridge. Proceeding next to Liverpool,
he made a days halt, and then shipped
on the steamer Moravian for Quebec.
The voyage was fair until they came
within 100 miles of Belle Isle straits,
when, in the fog and darkness, they COL
lided with an iceberg which damaged
the steamer sadly, and for two hours
they expected to finish the voyagein the
ships boats. Fortunately, however,
the damage was repaired and they
reached Quebec and home afterwards
in safety, and much improved by the
journey.

JoHssoN's UNIVERSAL cYclopED1A.-We

JoHNsoN's UNIVERSAL CYCLoPEDIA.-We
have had but little opportunity to examine
this work, the FIRST volume Of which has
been placed on our table by the canvassirg
agent, Mr.. Craighead, but from hasty
glances through its pages which we have
been able to give, are satisfied that it is very
superior. The first volume contains about
1000 pages, closely printed, in fine type.
but as the paper is good and the press~work
we'll done, it is easily read even by those
whose eye-sight is impaired. The styles
Of binding are, also, durable and popular.
OF the N after Of the book our examina-
ton Of it convinces US that it is fa1 ahead
Of any other work Of the kind, and that it
must become standard auth GRITTY. It en-
braces the widest possible range Of subjects,
from the most ancient to the most modern,
and the information respecting each is as
full as can be desired. Indeed, it is, of it.
self, perfect reference library, and will be
found pre-eminent]y useful to all classes Of
persons. To people in ordinary walks Of
life, it will prove ready means of educat-
ing themselves upon subjects which would
require months of research, were it not for
works of this character while to scholars
and pr OCCASIONAL men it will be invaluable
as a convenient reference book, the consul
tation of which will not be likely to disap-
point them, no matter what may be the in
formation they seek. The several classes
of subjects are treated of by the ablest
thinkers and writer's of the age, whose e1.
tensive inforn alton in their respective de-
paztments has made their opinions authors
tative.
Mr.. Craighead informs us that the pub
fishing house has made arrangements to
have the various townships canvassed as
thoroughly as the cities and villages, thus
afford;ng opportunity to those who live in
the country to secure the work. It is too
apt to be the opinion that country people
have no need of book of this character,
but that idea is an error. 1t is Of especial
interest to them, because their isolated po-
sition renders it hardly possible for them to
have convenient access to libraries. With
work OF this kind in their possession, they
are as well off, for q source of instruction,
as if they possessed a whole room Of books.
To the rising generation it is especially use
full. and every family that can possibly spare
the price Of the work should seize the pres
ent opportunity to obtain copy.
