GREAT BANKING HOUSE ROBBERY. One of the
greatest robberles ever perpetrated, occurred on
the night Of Sunday last. at the London Banking
house OF Messrs Rogers Il Co. Whether con-

navigation render the robbers craft comparatively


sasy IN distant parts of the world, it is the duty Of


every man in buslness--of every honest man, to


intercept the purloined booty, and bring if possible
the perpetrators TO justice. 1t is customary
