The case OF Joseph Robinson (colored),
indicted for fraudulentiy converting to his
own use the funds OF several OF the colored
Masonic and Odd.Fcllows' societies OF this
city held by him As treasurer. was given 10
the Jury last night between . and 10 clock.
To-day about II O'Clock the jury rendered
a verdict OF guilty and fixed his term OF
imprisonment in the pcnitcntary at three
wears. Robinson has long held prominent
position in colorcd society here, ana by
reason Of that fact his trial has excited
grc.: interest. From the moment OF his
arrest. however, he lost nj irlendS among
his race. and not one could be found to go
on his bond to take him out OF jail. Had
his case been in the hands OF q coored jury
there is no doubt as to quick verdict and
the longest sentence under the law. r..
The Commonwealth docket is finished,
and only two parties 90 to the pcnitcntiary.
The Commissioner OF the Revenue to-day
forwarded 10 the Auditor OF Public Ac-
counts his report OF the receipts for the

Total OF malt registrations, 1854; tax,
S54.9-. Total tax on alcoholic liquors sold
to consumers in quantities over one gallon,
5000; on malt, St.JI.
The largest number OF alcoholic registrl-
tionS reported at any one place was 1854
the smallest 81. Largest number OF malt
registrations, LASS. Petersburg will coll
tribute its fair share Of tax on drinks.
Ii is reported OF one OF the citizens OF n
ncighboring county that he recently took
the benefit OF the bankrupt law with view
to settling up his affairs and relieving HIM
self OF the burthcn OF his debts. When the
matter was settled it was found, TO the sur
prise OF himself and others, that he owned
more property than he believed he pos
scSscd, and that after paving his creditors
one hundred cents iii the dollar he had 1air
balance left for his own use. a somewhat
rare case in bankruptcy settlements.
4 number OF our merchants will send
articles OF exhibition TO the Weldon Fair,
which commences on Tuesday next.

1t frequently happens that fine en-
cravings, despite the care taken of
them, will in some unaccountable man
ner become stained and dirty to such
an extent as to seriously impair their
beauty. TO those of our readers who
own engravings that have been injur.
ed in this way a simple recipe for
cleaning them will prove of value.
Put the engraving on a small board
and cover it with thin layer Of com.
mon salt finely pulverized squeeze
lemon juice upon the salt until a con-
siderable portion of it is dissolved.
After every part of the picture has
been subjected to this treatment, ele-
vate one end Of the board so that it
will form an angle of about forty-five
degrees with the horizon. From a
tea kettle or other suitable vessel pour
on the engraving boiling water until
the salt and lemon juice be all washed
of. The engraving will then be per-
fectly clean and free from stain, 1t
must be dried on the board. or on
some smooth surface gradually. If
dried by the fire or sun it will be ting
ed with dingy yellowish color.
