CAPTURE OF RAILROAD THIEVES, How the Hudson River Railroad Trains Are ebbed=Two of the Tilcves and Their Booty Captured. For several years past the Hudson River Railroad Company have lost yearly a vast deal of money by tho systematic operations of a gang of thieves, who rob the freight trains while on the road between this city and Albany. Previous to the last six or elzht months these gangs have defied every effort of the oMcials which looked towards olther their de tection or suppression; but during this time several ot them have been captured, together with thelr plunder, and are now doing the State some service at Sing Sing or Auburn, The mode of ope- rations was to put one of their number on @ train bound up the river, whose business it was to ‘tap’? @ car and throw out whatever he coald while pass- ing a given pot on the road, whicn had been pre- viously agreed upon. Of course others of the gang are in waiting ready to hustle the packages intoa boat and pull off to a point of safety, whilo their “pal” who had unloaded the goods avails himself of the frst opportunity to Jump off and rejoin them to share in @ division of the spoils, Last Monday night this gang threw from a train, when OPPOSITE WASHINGTON URIGHTS, eight barrels and ene large case of merchandise, ail OF Wiltcu they succeeded In getting safely away with, althongn they wee detected by one of t road’s employés, who, however, was atraid to di turb them, ag they are known to be a shooting party.

When they reached Washington Heights they found two large cases—one containing toys, the otner dry goods—anu a box of raisins lying beside the track. Each of the three packages bore unmis takabie signa of having been thrown from a passing train, as did also @ rougi-lookmg customer, who gave his name as Jon Dougherty, and = who was, in company with another individual of the same ilk, within s few yards of the boxes, Dougherty had evidently thrown the pack- ages from the train and then jumped off, as his face was considerably scratched, his hair full of fresh dirt, and his pants badly torn near the knees and soiled with grave!. The two interesting individuals were taken in by the officers, who yesterday alter- Doon conveyed them to the Tombs, where they are detained, awaiting more evidence against them.

It was rumored that these bills had been made against the negotiation of a loun of £1,000,000 | bushels a. bay any bond: in London by the Pennsylvania Railroad. THE NEW LOAN AND THE CALLED BONDS, Telegrams from Washington received this witer- noon state that Treasury checks for six mullions of gold, payable December, have been mailed to parties in New York in payment of an equivalent amount of the five-twentles of 1862 sent in for redemption. Subsequent despatches state that, so far, Treasury checks for eight millions of coin have been sent to various parts of the country, inclusive of New York, This isthe Grst development of the progress made by the Treasury Department in cancellation of the $100,009,009 of flve-twenties named for redemption on the 1st prox. The bonds are thongit to be largely in the possession of the Syndicate, but nu- merous bankers and private parues have seen fit to send their bonds to Washington direct, and the eight millions above specitied 19 doubtless the amount so far examined, found correct and redeemed. The exact result of the complicated movement into and ou! of the ‘Treasury of coin and bonds ts apparently beyond the Ken of the shrewdeat in Wail street, Whether the whole thing wili eventuate in a simple exchange ot old six per cents for the new fives or in a large transfer of Treasury gold to the strect in exchange for an excess of bonds cancelled over those sub- acrived for remains to be toid in the future, Noone isabdle to predict anything now. ‘rhe Wall street markets are keeping step by step with such develop- ments as transpire with re‘erence to this important Movement, and hence we find, as a first result, GOLD WEAK—I11 4 110%. ‘rhe early feeling in the Gold Room had been steady, bus became firm when the government, by refusing to buy bonds, implied a possibility that there would be no sale of gold to-morrow, tue price advancing from 110% to 111. But the market here became weak on sales by parties who had the Washington news 1a advance of others, and eventue ally went off to 110 9-16, especially as it was also pressed with sales of gold agains: the reported negotiation of a foreign loan by the Pennsylvania Ratiroad and with still other sales in yew of vague rumors that & number of subscribers to the new fives would forfelt their two per cent deposit and default on thé balance of the payment, tnd eifect being to compel the government to disburse coin for the redeemed bonds without recelving any return from the new five per cents. We give the rumors for what they are worth, Doubtless they are greatly exaggerated; but should here and there a stray subseriver fall to make his remaining payment, the ‘Treasury would be so much less rich in coin, neces- sitated as it would be to Keep tts promise to redeem the full amount of “called’? 62's, The course of the market is shown in the table:— seve 110% In the gold loan market the rates ranzed from five per cent for carrying to fat for porrowing. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as fol- lows:— Gold cleare Gold balances, Currency bait GOVERNMENTS LOWER, ‘The Assistant Treasurer opened proposals at noon for the sale w the government of one million of five- twenties and found tenders of $2,252,590, at prices ranging from 110.77 to 111,05, Gold, at tweive orcluck, was Ml, yet Mr. Boutwell saw fit to take me later quotation of 110% a8 a basis of calculation, and accordingly rejected the whule amount, The government list, which had been firm on the noon price of gold, gave way on the announcement of NO TREASURY PURCHASE OF BONDS, and with the subsequent lower ruling of the gold market prices settled 4 @ 3; per cent, the closing sireet quotations being as follows:—United States currency sixes, 113 @ 113';; do. do., 1881, regis- tered, 116/4 @ 116%; do. do, coupon, 11734 @ 117 do, five-twenties, registered, May and November, 110% 111345 Ao, do., 1862, coupon, do,, 11144 @ 11134; do, d0., 1864, 0, do., 111 a i114g; do. do., 1865, do, do., 111% @ 1114; do. do,, registered, January and July, 113% @ 11434; do, do., 1865, conpon, do,, 11334 11344; do. do., 1867, do. do., 11435 @ 1143¢; do. do., 1863, do, do, 11 ® 114%; do, ten-forties, regis- tered, 109% a 109%; do, do,, coupon, 109%; a 109%.
