Some unprincipled scoundrel has stolen eve ry cooking utensil in the kitchen, only leaving the stove because it could not be conveniently carried away, and oth er necessary -artcles, including two bibles and a, large dictionary. It is difficult to say-'wbich is the worse, to steal from such an institution as the Home, or to take the Book that com mands "Thou shalt not steal," by stealth; "A few mornings since the lady who has charge of the Home was startled by the announcement of the servant, who ' said that the evergreens and flow bad been stolen from the yard! V We, consider this one of the most unparalleled specimens of heart less, detestable'rbguery on record. The Home is supported by the generosity of t Jame congregation, and the chil- ren of the parish who are unable to obtain an education elsewhere! receive both secular and religious instruction there. ,'(- j , . ,; ..,. We are assured that it is no easy matter in times like these to keep np the Home, and the midnight robber, if his eye should fall on this paragraph, should not only make every possible reparation for his sin, but beg to be allowed to keep one vt the bibles in or der to .Warn bipw to do better jn the future. . -r , , Yesterday officer Nick Carr went up to the Home and 'examined the foot prints of the scoundrel who dug up the evergreens. His feet were in some way deformed and his tracks different from any others. Aided by this officer Carr followed the footprints to the house of a negro by the name of Henry. Boon. He immediately ' procured a search warrant and succeeded in finding the kitchen tensils, which the cook at the Home, identified 1 their .property. Boon was arrested sad carried to jail.
