WaaUng their Nweetneas.
On yesterday we beheld the com
plete wreck of a jug and a bottle on
one of our sidewalks. The contents,
as they spread themselves over the
pavement, very much resembled tar;
but a curious freedman sampled them,
and assured us that it was “ sweet,
oli”—can’t say it. The ’ -t we wit
nessed of this scene, a few wide awake
ebony urchins were scooting round
the corners in quest of shingles to
gather up the “ spilt” sweetness.
Stealing from a Wagon.
Dan Williams, otherwise “Gouge,”
(colored), on yesterday afternoon,
gouged rather deep into a country
wagon, taking off with him a bundle
of goods and a new shawl. He was
overhauled in his efforts to get away
with his booty, and had an immediate
hearing before Justice Olin, who gave
him better employment on the Chain
Gang for six months, whcoe ho will
doubless be afforded an excellent op
portunity for trying his hand at
“ gouging” rock.
Fire.
Between 1 and 2 o’clock, yesterday
afternoon, a fire'occurred in a wooden
tenement, No. 55 Washington street.
The promptness of our very efficient
fire department soon subdued the
flames, and prevented what might
otherwise have proved a serious con
flagration, from the adjacent combusti
ble material. The tire evidently origi
nated from a defective stove-pipe in
the second or attic story of the build
ing. But partial damage resulted to
the house, and that mainly to the roof
and the plastering of the upper apart
ments, The premises were occupied
by Eliza Williams (colored), and are
the property of Mvb.Thomas Hopkins,
a widow lady of our city.
Recorder’*! Court.
Two colored individuals, of the
“ female persuasion” Abbey and
Mary Rodgers—had a hearing in
this Court yesterday morning, on a.
charge of a violation of the 18th Sec
tion. They were set at liberty on pay
ment of costs.
The case of Randolph Beverly
(colored) for violation of drumming
ordinance, was called. Notappearing,
the Recorder ordered a warrant for his
arrest.
MiLLEDbs DeLoach and Milakax
DeLoacxi (white), were arraigned for
drunkenness and disorderly conduct.
Having spent Friday night in the
guard-house, they were set at liberty
without fine.
Police Arrests.
In addition to arrests noticed else
where in our paper this morning, the
police yesterday fastened A. S. Clamp,
white, for disorderly conduct.
• Also, Wm. Levy (colored), for steal
ing wearing apparel.
“On to Richmond” they also
went for stealing iron at the Georgia
Railroad.

A Merited Compliment.
Our efficient Chief of Police, J. A.
Christian, Esq., was, yesterday, the
recipient of an appropriate and de
served compliment at the hands of a
limited number of our citizens. This
elegant present consisted of nothing
less than a noble horse, tine bridle and
saddle, with all the essential concomi
tants of a thoroughly equipped eques
trian. The utmost possible delicacy
characterized the presentation, nothing
of a public nature transpiring. The
•generous donors can rest assured that
this gift will be used as doubtless it
was intended—for the good of our
city.
♦ ——
Accidental Burning.
We are pained to learn that, on yes
terday afternoon, Miss Alice Carey
was severely burned from her clothing
accidentally taking tire. This young
lady had recently been ill, and being
convalescent, was reclining on a lounge
near the fire. The excitement conse
quent upon the alarm of fire from the
burning building on Washington
street called oft’ all the male members
us the family, and her aunt was asleep,
leaving Miss C. alone. She arose
from the lounge, and was standing be
fore the tire, when it is supposed her
dress caught tire, unperceived by her
at the moment. The injuries sus
tained, although not severe, are not
considered of a serious nature.

BeatililVil Fancy Goods.
In great variety, at J 92 Bread «tree»
< oantorfritrn ArvOMed.
A brace of worthies, hailing from
parts unknown, were arrested in this
city last Friday night, charged with
passing counterfeit money. They give
their name* as Isaa< C. \\ ilLi xm- and
Frank MgAnai i.y. From their ad
ruissious, aud subsequent c<»rrol>ora
tive testimony of several merchants
and others who have been victimized,
it is evident that several hundred dol
lars of this spurious currency have
been turned loose in our city. The
bills found in their possession were of
a single denomination—s2 —and on
the St. Nicholas National Bank, of
New York. The execution of the
counterfeit is sufficiently good to de
ceive the unskilled in handling money.
The plan upon which they proceeded
to distribute this counterfeit was based
upon the true spirit of economy—•
buying, generally, a pair of socks, or
some other article of small value, ten
dering a $2 bill in payment, and re
ceiving their change in genuine cur
rency. So successful were they in en
trapping the unwary, that they had
amassed quite a huge roll ol fractional
currency by this plan.
Information elicited points to their
connection with other parties, said to
be operating in Savannah, as their im
mediate confederates. They arc sup
posed to be connected with a well or
ganized band of counterfeiters, having
their headquarters in New York,
where these counterfeit bills are man
ufactured on private account by the
bale.
We caution merchants, traders, and
all others, to be careful in their money
transactions, lest they be made vic
tirns of the rascality of the counter
feiters who are abroad in the cities
and counties of our State.
Remember the Orphan.
Os the varied objects ol’ charily
which appeal to the generosity of the
benevolent everywhere, there are none
which have stronger claims upon our
philanthropy than the wail of the
friendless orphan, as it mingles .with
the too often unheeded cries of distress
which pervade our own loved South.
If it were possible to dignify Charity
beyond the position assigned it by the
Apostle Paul—as the greatest of the
cardinal virtues of Christianity—that
additional elevation would be conse
quent upon its operation in behalf of
the fatherless and motherless little
waifs which have been thrown upon
every community by the dispensation
of Providence and the vicissitudes of
the late disastrous war. They are a
part of the “talent” delegated to us for
our improvement. Can we discharge
the duty of Christianity, aye, of At«
inanity— to them, by simply bestow
ing lip-blessings, while wo tighten our
purse stringsand plead a poverty more
fancied than real ? Assuredly not.
Richmond county, in common with
other sections of our State, is not ex
empt from the demands of the indigent
orphan. While we have no data at
hand by which to compute the actual
number of orphans in this county,
thrown upon the charity of its citizens,
we are persuaded that it is sufficiently
large to demand an organized effort in
their behalf. While a few individual
subscriptions would confer but a lim
ited benefit upon this class of our pop
ulation, a combination of the charita
ble and humane, in the development
and execution of a plan to provide
them with a permanent home, could
but result in vast good to the giver
and recipient alike.
We do not see any valid reason why
Richmond county cannot afford as
complete provision for the comfort of
her poor orphan population, as other
sections of the State we wot of, and
we are inclined to the belief that she
will, if an effort be put forth in this
direction by some of her leading citi
zens.
The character of the Home which
we would suggest for the considera
tion of the thoughtful in this matter,
is fashioned upon the model of that
under the auspices of the Union
Society, at Bethesda, near Savannah,
Ga., which is now in the one hundred
and nineteenth year of its existence.
By the system under which this society
operates, the Home which' they have
erected at Bethesda is made partially
self-supporting, the inmates being re
quired .to devote a certain portion of
their time to agricultural and such
other pursuits as may be turned to the
advantage of the Institution. All
matters of detail would be out of
place at the present writing, as we
design merely to concentrate thought
upon the matter as a general proposi
tion. We trust that our suggestions
in this lino may find a lodgment in
the hearts of our citizens, and that
something tangible and real may result
therefrom, to the good of the orphans
with whom we are surrounded.

Troup Hill, nenr Augusta, was fatally bunted
on Wednesday.— Baeannah Adrerliner.

A Had Pietnrc.
A woman, said to have once 1m?-
longed to one of the Iwid faisilioa of
Macon, Ga., was recently iernd by the ’
Cleveland (Ohio) police, itibmoatcd
and freezing to death, lying on tin
ground in a grove of that city, in com
pauy with a man, also dbliviouoly in
toxicated. She was married and lived '
on a tine plantation, it is slated, before
the war, and her father was an officer >
in the Confederate army. The ruin •
wrought hytho war and consequent pov-'
erty caused her to leave her husband,
after removal to Massachusetts, ami
coming West, the sunk into her pres
ent shame ami degradation. She gave
her history iu fragments, on examina
tion, after recovering consciousness,
stopping now and then, as her happier
p ist life came back iu contrast to her
present wretched one, beating her
breast and moaning piteously : “Oh,
me ! What is the use?” She is known
as Fanny Wilson, and, it is stated,
that the name of her father, who died
during the war, was Major Wilson.

of Aurelia ami her f.'nfor
tunale Yvttng Man.
in mark twain.’”'
The fact* in the following ease came
to me by letter from a young lady who I
lives in the beautiful city of San Jose.
She is jwrfectly unknown to me. and
simply signs herself “Aurelia Maria,”
which may possibly be a fictitious
name. But no matter, the poor girl is
almost heart-broken by tho misfor
tunes she has undergone, and so con
fused by the conflicting counsels of
misguided friends and insidious ene
mies* that she does not know what
course to pursue in order to extricate
herself from the web of difficulties in
which she is almost hopelessly involv
ed. In this dilemma slip turns to me
for help, and supplicates for my guid
ance and instruction with a moving
eloquence that would touch the heart
of a statue. Hear her sad story :
She says that when she was sixteen
years old she first met anti loved, with
all the devotion of a passionate nature,
a young man from New Jersey named
Williamson Breckenridge Caruthers,
who was only six years her senior.
They were engaged with the free con
sent of their friends ami relatives, and
for a time it seemed as if their career
was destined to be characterized by an
immunity from sorrow beyond the
usual lot of humanity But at last the
tide of fortune turned ; young Caruth
ers became infected with the small
pox of the most virulent type, and
when he recovered from his illness, his
comeliness gone forever. Amelia
thought to break off the engagement
at first, but pity for her unfortunate
lover caused her to postpone die mar
riage for a season, and give him
another trial.
The very day before the wedding
was to have taken place, Breckenridge,
while absorbed in watching the flight
of a balloon, walked into a well and
fractured one ot bis legs, and it had
to be taken oft’ above the knee. Again
Aurelia was moved to break the en
gagement, but again love triumphed,
and she set the day forward and gave
him another chance to reform.
And again misfortune overtook the
unhappy youth. He lost one arm by
the premature discharge of a Fourth
of July cannon, and within three
months got the other pulled out by a
carding machine. Aurelia’s heart was
almost crushed by these later calami
ties. She could not but be deeply
grieved to sec her lover passing from
her by piecemeal, feeling, as she did,
that he could not Ijxst forever under
the disastrous process of reduction,
yet knowing of no way to stop its
dreadful career, and in her despair she
almost regretted, like brokers who
hold on and lose, that she had not
taken him at first, before he had suf
fered such an alarming depreciation.
Still, her bravery bore her up, and she
resolved to bear with her friend’s
unnatural disposition yet ts little lon
ger.
Again the wedding day approached,
and again disappointment overshad
owed it; Caruthers fell ill with the
erysipelas, and lost the use of one of
his eyes entirely. The friends and
relatives of the bride, considering that
she had already put up with more
than could be reasonably expected of
her, now camo forward and insisted
that the match should be broken oft’;
but after wavering a while, Aurelia,
with that noble mid generous spirit
which did her credit, said that she had
reflected calmly on the matter, and
could not discover that Breckenridge
was to blame.
So she extended tlie time once more,
and he broke his other leg.
It was a sad day for the poor girl
when she saw the surgeons reverently
bear away the saw, whose uses she
had learned by previous experience,
and her heart told i,e»- the bitter truth
that some more of her lover had gone.
She felt that the field of her affections
was growing more and more circum
scribed every day, but once more she
frowned down her relatives, and re
newed her betrothal.
Shortly before the time set for the
nuptials another .disaster occurred.
There was but one man scalped by the
Owens River Indians last year.
That man was Williamson Breckin
ridge Caruthers, of New Jersey- He
was hurrying home with happiness in
his heart, when he lost his hair for
ever, and in that hour of bitterness he
almost cursed the mistaken mercy that
had spared his head.
At last Aurelia is in serious per
plexity as to what she ought to do.
She still loves her Breckenridge ; she
writes with true womanly feeling—
still loves what is left of him—bill her
parents are bitterly opposed to the
match, because he had no property,
and is disabled from working, and she
has no means sufficient to support both
.comfortably. “Now what shall she
do?” she asks with painful and •anxious
solicitude.
It is a delicate question ;• it is one
which involves the lifelong happiness
of a woman and that of nearly two
thirds of a man, and I feel that it
would be assuming too great a respon
sibility to do more than make a mere
suggestion in the case. How would
it do to build to him ? If Aurelia can
afford the expense, let her furnish her
multilated lover with a wooden leg
and a glass eye and a wig, and give
him another show; give him ninety
days without grace, and if he does not
break his neck in the meantime, marry
him and take the chances. It does
not seem to me that there is much
risk, anyway, Aurelia, because if he
sticks to his’ propensity for damaging
hims\'lf every time he sees a good op
portunity, his next experiment is
bound to finish him, and then you are
all right, you know, married or sin
gle.
If married, the wooden legs and
such other valuables as he may possess
revert to the widow, and you see you
sustain no actual loss save the cherished
fragmuntofn noble but most unfortu
nate husband, who honestly strived to
du right, bui whoa* evtraordinnrv
instinct* wert again*! him. Try ltd
Maria. I hare thought the mattar
over carefully mid well; It k the only .
chance I m*c for you. It would have
I'oeii a happy' iwoeil <<u the part of
Ca rut her* if he had atarted with hi* '
neck and broken that first; but since i
he has seen fit to choose a diflcrctit i
policy and string himself out M long i
a« possible, I do not think we ought i
t<> upbraid him for it if he liked it. ,
We must do the best we can under the !
circumstances, ami try not to feel ex-1
asperated at him
