THE STOCK MAN1ET.

The rover of London robbed.

If there is one place in London which
most people would have supposed to be
tolerably safe from all chance of being
broken into it is the Tower. Yet night
or two ago the door of the storeroom of the
Offices belonging to the battalion of guards
was found to have been forced open, and
further research discovered two boys inside,
who had been engaged in ransacking the
boxes. They declared that they found the
door open and walked in. What makes
the incident more comically tragic is the
fact that the youths, both of whom were IA
years old, were sons of warders. The
Thames magistrate merely handed the
culprits over to their fathers, to be brought
up again if called for, and, no doubt, the
stern parents will administer such lesson
on the rights of property as will restore to
the Tower of London its ancient reputa-
ton of being absolutely impreguable.-
