We have enjoyed tor the past two nights a temporary relief from the ravages of sneak-thieves. Wo trust that the relief may be permanent. There has seldom been known in the history of tills eity so much stealing from private premises us has taken place in the last six months. Nearly every night depredations wore committed In some part of the elty. It re minded one of the fearful times which fol lowed immediately after the war, when chickens were safe only when tied to the bed poets, and it was necessary to make a pillow of a ham which you wished to pre serve for the noxt day's food. Perhaps the change in the disposition of the police may have contributed towards this diminution of rascality. Nine policemen are now on duty every night, and they are able to keep a sharp watch over the different parts of the elty. You can buy Whiter Dress Goods cheaper at J. J.

It lb strange tliat aomo people will in sist that the reporta of want and suffering In our community originate solely in the excited brains of philanthropic fanaticism- They suppose that because all the iioople }hcy meet on the streets seem to be gay and happy and everything bears a thrifty appearance that there can be no real buf fering. Because they do not see it they laugh at the idea of its existence. There is a capital reason why this class disbe lieve in the presence of real suffering in the city. They never trouble themselves to find it out. Some of them care not whether it exists or not. These people never visit the scenes of want and distress. Suffering docs not expose itself to the pub lic gaze. It does not place a placard on its buck to parade the streets aud cry for help. It is found in the alleys far from the public gaze. It can bo seen in garrets by the dim, dirty light which creeps through the cracks. It often lies alone in damp cellars where foul air and water has ten the coming of the only relief it looks for—death. That charity is almost w>rth lesa which requires its objects to present themselves and beg assistance. The truest, the noblest, tho only Christ like charity is that sympathy for suffering which earnestly searches for it, and whose ear catches the weakest wail of miferyand turns not away. On yesterday we saw a scene of misery j which should not be found in any Chris tian community. We visited a man named < W. C. Clegg who is in the very extremity of want and suffering. He is in the Factory Boarding House, and is attended by no body but a faithful wife. He has been an invalid for the past two years, during which time he has not been able to work more than throe weeks. His whole frame is covered and eaten with scrofula. A wife j and two children, the oldest of whom is j only four, are the only companions of his misery. This man is absolutely without any means of support, and is as near to perfect destitution as he could be aud live There is scarcely a morsel of bread in liis house, and he has not enjoyed the comfort of a Are for many a day. He says that he has never lived on charity, and only asks it now because it is his only chance to es cape starvation. We make no comment on this case. If facts like these cannot move the hearts of those who are able to help the suffering, they would not respond if an angel from Heaven made the appeal.

Avery largo crowd of all descriptions assembled to hoar the highly interesting proceedings of the Mayor’s tribunal yes terday morning. The old ease against John Davis and! Newton Slides, who were concerned in that famous shooting frolic of the lGth in stant, was called, but no response came from the accused parties. It appears that these two parties are visiting Girard just now, and are likely to remain there for some time to come. They had as well come over and meet angry justice with open and manly breasts, for the memory of their evil doing is engraven deep upon the minds of twelve vigilant policemen, and the moment they set foot ui>on the soil of Georgia, the sword of vengeance will find them out. Nora liishop celebrated the 22d, by thrashing a young lady much frailer than herself, and then had the impudence to toil the Court that she didn’t care If she did, and that she would repeat the opera tion at her earliest convenience. She seemed i>erfeetly willing to pay $5 for her offense and impudence combined, and she departed singing a pretty little Sun day school hymn. In response to the chorus, the Court adjourned.

We publish this morning a communica tion from Dr. W. W. Flewellen, city physi cian, asking the help of the public towards the accomplishment of his design to help the poor of this city. We are glad that he has received such generous encourage ment from those whom he has consulted. He seemsj to be very sanguine of success and lias arranged all of his committees. The plan seems about to be put into execution, and an honest, earnest effort made to relievo those who are suffering in the city. We see no reason why this plan should not prove as successful xus similar endeavors made by other eiti<>s. The committees are composed of sterling men and energetic ladles, and we are con fident that they will not fail. The committees are requested to meet at the residence of Mr. H. S. Estes, on Broad street, at 3.30 p. m. A full attend ance is earnestly requested at this moot ing. Matters of importance wiil come up for consideration. Those who have taken an interest in the formation of a plan for the relief of poverty and want in the city deserve great credit for their energetic ef forts, which seem likely to prove success ful. The main objection to public relief is that it will attract and encourage idleness. No one who has read the plan proposed by Dr. Flewellen, can fear any such result from it. The thing has been done without increasing idleness and it can be done again. God speed the Association to the attainment of its noble end.

The Uatiering encouragement given me, through the press and by the citizens, in spires the hopo that a practical plan of relief can bo adopted. The lady who, a few days since, sought through my feeble efforts, to secure employment, obtained it within twenty-four hours. Her appeal touched one of the most generous hearts , in Columbus, and nobly did he respond. It is the “unwillingly idle” I would most; heartily commend for relief, while tho sick . aud destitute I would not have neglected.; The ladies and gentlemen composing the j Committee of Belief are well known to tho j citizens of Columbus. Their past histories j I arc replete with noble deeds of charity, j And their activity, intelligence arid perso-. nal w'orth is a sufficient guarantee that I every trust committed to their keeping will be sacredly guarded and faithfully executed. It will require some time to perfect a plan of relief; and until then, the j indulgence of tho community is Invoked, j No enterprise of a public character should | be entered into hastily, lest it fail of ulti- j mate success. In all our plans let wisdom 1 guide and time perfect. Then may we in- 1 dulge the hope that, os the bud of charity j begins to unfold its leaves, we shall be J able daily to discover new beauties in its j bloom, and ever keep our souls refreshed j with its heavenly fragrance.

Yesterday morning, about seven o’clock, Marshal Itobinson met policeman Me- Eaehron in front of the Central Hotel, when the latter told him that ho was watching two negroes who bore a suspi cious appearance. Marshal Robinson then watched the two men until thoy went into a jewelry store on Broad street, when lie and McEaeliren went after them. They soon came out and started down the street. Mai*shal Robinson motioned to a police man whom they were meeting to stop them. The officer did not understand the signal and stopped only one; the other start/nl to run, when he was brought to a halt by a very peremptory order. Police man MeEachem told Robinson that he had just read of the robbery of a store at Forsyth, and that he suspected those two negroes of being implicated in the affair. Their behavior had been such as to arouse his suspicions. Accordingly, these two darkies were arrested. They gave their names as Guy Cheney ami Sandy Nealy. The latter is a particularly bail looking negro. A Colt's revolver was taken from his person. The negroes were carried down to the jail, and a telegram sent to the authorities of Forsyth, describing them and asking if there was any suspicion against them. Meanwhile Guy Cheney confessed his guilt to Marshal Ilubinson, Sandy remain ing sullen. After some delay, a telegram was received from Forsyth, requesting the authorities here to keep these negroes In safe confinement until a bench warrant for their arrest should come, and stating that officers would leave for Columbus on the next train. It appears that the storoof Mr. J. Dumas was robbed in Forsyth, on the night of the 13th instant, of a very large quantity of g kxls. It is pretty certain that these two negroes are the guilty parties. Our po licemen deserve especial credit for their vigilance and skill in the capture of these robbers. It Is supposed that the negroes have not been in this city long, and it is foil unate that they did not have an op lM>rtimity to practice their rascality here. If our officers continue to be so .vigilant and successful in overtaking offenders against the law, Columbus will soon be the last place to which a villain will fly for safety.

The beauty of Brook lyn, Talbotton, Madison, Opelika, and Eastern Alabama is enlivening the city, and stealing away the hearts of unsus- I pectin# youths. j The gypsies still continue to burn their caiup llres and tell fortunes on the south I commons. Several prominent English journals are howling about the passage of the Civil Rights bill by our House of Reprosenta | tives. England is the great abolition I land of the world, but this morsel is most j too bitter for fastidious John Bull. I W. P.

City taxes seem to be coming in pretty fast. People are acting wisely; they pay early in the year and save a large per cent. A Columbus hen actually laid two eggs at once, yesterday; one with a hard shell, the other was soft. The “Mirror of Ireland’' is booked for our Opera House on Friday night, but there are as vet no signs of its corning. Can a financial crank have broken the "Mirror” ? There is a man in Chattahoochee county who has not washed his face in six months. He has a strange kind of hydrophobia. Eighty-one genuine Charley Ross*s hav< • been found, and still the parents mourn for their lost boy. Two of our high-minded young men came near having a little personal “un pleasantness” tlie other day. Six notes passed, and weapons had been chosen, when the affair was referred to a board of honor, and was peaceably adjusted. An excursion “down the river” has thus l>een indefinitely postponed. The affair was kept remarkably quiet, and as it reached us accidentally, we suppress the Mann'S of all the parties concerned. There are said to be very few foreign laborers in the State now. The number of Swedes is less than it once was. The only “heathen Chinee” that we know of, are at work on tin* Augusta Canal. The African still plants our cotton and corn, anti sings his melodious ditties in our fields. The ghost seems to have come to life again. He will perform to-night. Can a young gentleman properly be said to be smitten, when he calls three times a day to see a lady ? Editors say some terribly rough tilings about each other at times. A Western quill-driver, speaking of his rival, says: “He is young yet, but he can sit at his desk and brush the cobwebs from the ceil ing with his ears.” Imagine that man’s feelings. A corn extractor that has n*t been patented—the crow. Miss-construction- whalebone, paper, paint, and wadding. Some people hope a long time. A Co lumbus man has just begun to burn up his Confederate money. He has several millions. Vico President Wilson Is now in the con- ] dition of Job—sorely tormented with bolls. Mad dogs are growing scarcer. They say that a U. S. Senator is ashamed to carry his wife to Washington because she is so ugly, and she is ashamed to go with him because he is so mean. Macon complains of an abundance of dead beats. We are glad that we cannot sympathize with her. Amerieus wants gas that will burn. She has plenty of the old sort. The inhabitants of a Georgia village forgot that George Washington was born on the 22(1 until after that day had passed. The cry of hard times rises from every quarter of the State.
