Afteithey had been committed, and before it was lumen who they were, (as they had given lifictitious names ,) an examination of the keys n their possession led to very importfint dis coveries. Some of the : keys had- been stolen from the residence of James Blackmore, Esq., n Wylie street, on Monday evening last, and at the same time the house was robbed of a - f numbero spoons, and other silver ware, dur ing the 'absence of the family on a visit.

We learn by the last steamer that the Lon don Sufferance Wharf, whose premises are to be erected on the north bank of the Thames, in connection with the Victoria Desks and all the principal railways, propose to meet the difficulty - lately raised with regard to the storage of the quantities of petroleum (or "well oil" as it is called in London) now in course of importation from America, and the trade in which promises rapidly to atumme singular proportions. The danger of such an article being kept in the midst of the various decks of London has attracted general atten tion, and the .Sufferance Wharf Company in tend to erect a series of buildings, entirely apart from ell other premises, to be. devoted exclusively to this purs.. The Legislature of Kentucky passed an set, which requires an inspection of burning oils refined from petroleum and crude coal-oil. It imposes a tine of twenty dollars for each sale of such burning oil without inspection. It requires that the oil shall be tested, on as not to give out an explosive vapor at a tempera ture less than 150° Fahrenheit. A Skillful Operation. On Monday last, a dolman named James Mclntyre was dangerously injured by being pinned against a height car on Liberty street—the shaft of the dray having struck him on the breast and crushed in several of his_ ribs. The right, lung was seriously af fected, and IC was faired that the man would die. In eighteen hours after the accident, Dr. Pollock, assisted by Drs. Shaw and Me- Meal, opined the chest and extracted several small pieces of ' the fractured ribs, which bad been driven into the right lung under the arm pit. Two of these splinters were [roman inch and a half to two inches in length, and had canoed great pain and irritation to the lung. The operation was necessary to save the life of the patient, and was very okillftilly per formed. For some time afterward the case seemed to be hopeless, bat he gradually began to grew better, and this morning hopes are entertained for his ultimata recovery.

Lieut. Gillis landed with a party of men to destroy it. The work was about 350 yards from the river bank, and mounted' two fine, long - 24-pounders, on excellent field carriages. One of the guns, so rapid was the flight of the rebels, was left loaded and primed. The Hale returned to her anchorage with out having a man injured.

Shortly after he landed in his boats, covered by the guns of the Onward. The rebels fired upon the party, but not 'wait ing an attack, escaped from the island to the mainland.

Nicholson, of the Isaac Smith, than stationed at St. Augus tine, having heard that a schooner had come in over Matanzas for some thirteen miles to the southward, dispatched three armed boats, together with a detachment of twenty-five men, from Col. Boll's command, to capture her, which was done, and the schooner brought to St. Augustine. The schooner was called the Empire City. She had an English regis ter, and cleared from Nassau for - St. John, N. B. Her cargo consists' of provisions, dry goods, medicines, etc. In consideration of the fait that the citizens of St. Augustine were without the necessaries of life, and with no means of getting them, Lieut. Nicholson sold the cargo ' or a portion of it, at auction, considering the overruling necessity. The gudboat limiter/a, on the let ult., off Mobile, captured the R. C. Files, which was attempting to run• the blockade. She was loaded with cotton, and has been sent to Key West.
