THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN-PHILADELPHIA. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 28.1866
CITY BULLETIN.
THE BAYARD ROBBERY.
BBCOVEHV OF HOST OF THE STOLEN
PBOPsarr.
; The bold robbeiy committed yesterday at
the office of Mr. C. P, Bayard, No. 209
Chestnut street, waß the chief topic of dis
cussion among bankers, brokers and others,
during yesterday afternoon and this morn
ing. Circulars, containg descriptions and
numbers of tbe bonds and securities in the
box were sent around' yesterday afternoon,
and it was not likely that any of the stolen
property conld be negotiated. .
; Tbis morning the box was returned to Mr.
Bayard by a Mrs. Hens, who keeps a lager
be»r saloon at No. 405 Callowhill street.
In tbe rear of the houße of Mrs. Hens,
there is an alley running in from York
avenue. This alley way is not mnoh used.
Tbis morning the sister of Mrs. Hens and
a servant were about leaving the house, and.
discovered a tin box in the alley. It was
locked and had the key in the look. The
box was taken into the honse, and Mrs.
Hens at first supposed that it belonged to
some peddler whom the police were after,
and who had deposited it in the alley for
safety,
i Mrs. Hens read an account of the robbery
of Mr. Bayard in the papers, and then
thought that the box might do the stolen
one. She proceeded to Mr. Bayard’s place,
and that gentleman immediately identified
the box as the one which had been ab
stracted yesterday. .
An examination of the box was made and
it was found to contain nearly all tbe secu
rities which wore in it yesterday. Only a
few government bonds are missing. About
$3,000.; in bonds which conld have been
negotiated with little or no difficulty, were
overlooked by the thieves, and were left in
tbe box.
; There is yet no cine to the rasoals who
committed this bold and adroit robbery.
I Professor Blot’s Lectures. —As was to
be expected, after the heavy gale last bight,
Professor Blot come ont this morning with
increased effect, as was manifested by a
considerable accession to bis class, at bis
second lecture. The programme for to
day’s lecture was as follows:
Boned Turkey, Z6phlrs,
Fish d la vinaigrette, Croque en bouche,
Beef a la mode, Steaks broiled,
M&ringues.
The of preparing a
boned turkey, commenced at yesterday’s
lecture, was completed in beantifol style,
and judging from the intelligent questions
and the attentive interest of the fair audi
ence, it may be assumed that tbis “capital
operation”'in gastronomy will be repeated
during the coming week in many a private
kitchen, where such an attempt would have
been scouted at, bet yesterday, as ridiculous
in tbe extreme. The remainder of to-day’s
programme was gone through with the
same careful particularity which marked
yesterday’s lecture, the constant variety of
the instructions kept up the interest of the
-audience without the slightest appearance
of restlessness or fatigue.
The announcement of the fifth article of
the programme, Ztphirs, was apparently
received by the fair audience as a subtle
joke of Professor Blot’s, and a peep into the
private note-books would probably reveal
the fact that point was not lost upon the
quick wits of the lively class. The lectures
of tbe course will be resumed on the 3d of
January, and proceed daily, until com
pleted.
Fire in a Tenement House—Narrow
Escape op a Child.— This morning, about
half-past eight o’olock, a fire was discovered
in a three-storied brick honse, in Quigg’s
court, on Quarry street, below Third, occu
pied by Aug net Dufner, a shoemaker. The
third siory was rented to a Mrs. Kauffman,
who goes ont to do work. Tbis morning
she went out as nsual, and left a little boy
six years of sage, locked up in the room.
There was a-hot stove in the apartment.and
it was pretty well surrounded by inflam
mable material. Mr. Dufner heard screams
from the child, and rnshed up to the room.
He burst open the door, and found the
loft in flames. The alarm was given, and
the firemen were soon on the ground. Be
fore the fire was extinguished, the roof was
burned off, and the roofs of two adjoining
similar buildings were badly damaged: All
three buildings were flooded with water.
There was a family living on every floor,
and the household effects of all were pretty
well ruined. Women and children were
obliged to get into tbe street as quick as
possible, and they bad to seek shelter from
tbe cold in houses in the neighborhood.
The structures damaged are owned by
Messrs. W. D. and E. H. Frishmuth, and
are insured'in the Fire Association.
It wilL be seen by an advertisement in
another column, that the leases of the Dock
street wharf and Bonth street wharf, Dela
ware, and Arch street wharf, Sahuylkill,
will be disposed of at public sale, ou Mon
day, Dec. 31st, at 12 o’clock, noon, at the

Petition Against Curtailing the
Currency.-—Petitions are circulating
throughout the country for signatures pray
ing Congress to refrain from the passage of
any act authorizing the curtailment of the
National currency, or having in view the
return within a limited time to specie pay
ments. This movement, it is known, is in
opposition to the policy of Secretary Mo-
Cnlloob, who maintained that the country
wants more labor instead of more currency.
The Secretary has returned to Washington
to-day from a visit to Western Virginia.
He has given up the intention to proceed
North, not having any business to call him
thither at present
Aged Suicides.—Three persons, the
youngest of whom was fifty-seven years of
age, destroyed themselves in the west of
England during one: week in November.
Two of these events occurred in ■ Cornwall,
where one James Shakerley, fifty-seven
years old, hung himself on tbe farm pre
mises of his brother-in-law, and where a wo
man named Hill, aged fifty-nine, of Bodin
nieb, threw herself into the river Fowey.
Both had for some time been in a despond
ing condition; so, also, had a widow, in good
circumstances, named Bastin, aged sixty,
who hung herself: at her farm-house near
Rockear, South Devon.

Washington, Deo. 28.— Andrew John
son, President of the United States of
America. 2b all whom it may concern: An
exequatur bearing date 22d day of March,
1866, having been issued to Gerhard Jans
sen, recognizing him as consul of Olden
burg, for New York, and declaring him free
to exercise and enjoy such functions,powers
and privileges as are allowed to consols by
the law of nations or by the laws of
the United States and existing treaty
stipulations between the governments
of Oldenburg and the United States,
and the said Janssen having refused to ap
pear in the Supreme Court of the State of
New York, to answer in a suit there pend
ing against himself and others on, the plea
that he is a consular officer of Oldenburg,
thus seeking to use his official position to
defeat the; ends of justice, it is deemed that
the said Gerhard Janssen should no longer
be permitted to continue in the exercise
of said functions, powers and privileges.
These are, therefore, to declare that I no
longer recognize the said Gerhard Janssen
as Consul of Oldenburg for New York, and
will not permit him to exercise or enjoy
any of the functions, favors or privileges al
lowed to Consuls of that nation; and I do
hereby wholly revoke and annul the said
exequatur heretofore given, and do declare
the same to be absolutely null and void
from this day forward.
In testimony thereof I have caused these
letters to be made patent and the seal of the
United States of America to be hereunto
affixed. Given under my hand at Washing
ton, this 26th day of December, in the year
of our Lord one thousand eight hundred
and sixty-six,and of theindependence of the
United States of America the ninety-first,
[Signed] Andrew Johnson.
By the President: i
Wm. H. Seward, Secretary of State.

Boston, Dec. 28.—Schooner Pulaski, of
Jonesport, was driven against the counting
room of the New York Commercial Line of
Steamers, on India’s wharf, and "the bow
sprit punched a hole through a side of the
building;
' The steamer, with the Boston passengers
of last night, destined for New York
did not sail and will not leave until
to-night for New York. The regu
lar boat, of the Stoningtou line left
Stonington last night for New York, bat
came to anchor in the New London harbor,
where she now lies. She will probably
leave for New York this afternoon. -*-! *£§
The passage of the ferry boats was inter
rupted for several hours. ;
The partitions of walls of two new build
ings at the corner of Chelsea and Decatur
streets in East Boston was blown down*
The flag-staff in Chelsea was blown across
the street, enly aj moment after a horse car
had passed.
The roof of a building on Federal street,
in this city, occupied by a fire-brick com
pany, was taken off bodily and carried some
distance, a portion of it narrowly escaping
the Quincy horse car.
The tin roof of a large building on. Pur
chase street was rolled up by the wind, and
dumped in the street.
Jenkins's Glass Works, in ’South Boston
were flooded, and much damage was done.
The track of the Boston, Hartford and
Erie Railroad was washed away in several
places, and the evening trains werajiuable
to run. The damage has been repaired and
the trains are running again this morning.
The damage to the Eastern, Old Colony
and Ne wport Railroad was also repaired du
rjpg the night, and the trains are running
with their usual regularity to-day.
