The time for presents Is Almost come, and the time for their selection is Ike present. We would refer our readers to the pieal Uducements oflered, by that well-known ft m. established at tho northeast corner of Ninth and Chesnut streets, which firm hns come Into such goad repute from the nnsur passed block of silver-plated ware whloh they have ulways on hand. Tho great demand, by reason of the holiday season, has led them to so lncreo.se their excellent stock, embracing every Imaginable variety of silver-plated ware, from the smallest mustard spoon to the most elabo. rately wrought tea set, as to make It without an equal In the country. Its assortment of holi day presents Is large and beautiful, erabraolug 611 the latest styles, and representing the full catalogue of elegant designs. Tl o articles are of the finest white metal that can be manufactured, and the heavy plating upon them Is void of that tarnish whloh other ware Is liable to., Thus, at a very moderate rate, buyers can fully satisfy themselves with plated ware as beautiful, and more durable, than the tolld silver. Messrs. Mead & Co. have, for many years, made this business a strict speolalty with them, and therefore oan produce a finer article, at a lesser rate, than can other nianu- J facta re rs and dealers.

Pinkerton's National Police Agency bas lust succeeded in arresting a robber of the Mer chants' Union Express Company, recovering tbe amount stolen, $0170, and seouring the con viction aud punishment of the perpetrator. Tbe facts In the case are as follows: On the 27th of September last, lbe National Bank of Commerce of this city snipped a puciiuge, con sisting ot 85 and S10 bills amounting to 0170, by tbe Merchants' Union Express Company, to the .National liana; oi missoun, ot. ijouis, On that day a bag was made up by the Express Company for St. Louis, supposed to have con tained, among other packages, tbe oue alluded to. Tbis bag passed tbrougu the bands of seven or eight messengers, and on the route laid over at Indianapolis ou ttunday, the 2Uih of Sep tember. Inside of the bag was a way-bill for each package, descriptive of tbe contents. On tbe ai rival ot tbe bag atHt. Louis It was dis covert d to contain one package more than the way-bills called for. a ciicumslance wtilou sometimes does occur In tbe course ot the Ex press business, but is always easily aeoounted lor by the advices of tbe consignees. In due course, the letter from the National Bank of Commerce here, advising the National Bank of Missouri, was received by the latter, setting forth that a package containing Sbl70 had been shipped on the 27th of September. Tue bank at bi. Louts soon apprized the bank here that no such package bad arrived. It was at this point that the Merchants' Union Express Company dlsoovered that the package supposed to bave been shipped was lofct. It bad gone through tbe handsof seven or eigbtdlflerent messengers, any one of whom might bave taken IU Here tbe Investigation by tbe detectives was ordered lo begin. The clerks In the office of tbe Express Company In this city were examined, tiieu each of the ines seugeis, all giving etraigblforward and business-like statements but one, Henry U. Warrl ner, lbe messenger between Indianapolis and Bt. Louie. His memory appeared altogether too s cute relative to the particular bug which con ttlced tbe package which was lost, although hundreds of bags had passed through his bands during the Interval between September 28 and tbe time of tbe Investigation. (Suspicion ultimately fell on Warriner, and his operations were watched with great care. At length, on the 1st lust., be was arretted and locked up at Indianapolis, He Immediately conieesed the robbery, end told the detectives lhal he bad tbe money burled near his resi dence, a place named Bboals, Indiana. His story proved to be true, and the money was found there. Last Thursday Warriner was brought up for trial In Indianapolis, convicted, end sentenced to tbe Penitentiary lor live years. The course of Justice following closely upon ai rest In this ease shows commendable prompt ness on lbe pnrtof the Indianapolis Court. Tue Merchants' Union Express Company-has been in operation for about a year, and this is the first robbery of any consequence which bas been perpetrated upon them, and It is their de termination to follow un all such cases with Immediate and thorough Investigation, and, if pos.ibie, to bring onenuers to justice..
