four years of age, were brought into the Second
Municipality Court Room, for being found in an

they were found, and there she left them. The Re-
corder very humanely sent the poor little ones ito

BAD NEGRoEs.-The slave negroes of this city
are sometimes allowed entirely 100 much latitude
in the way of vice and amusement. although they
know perfectly well that they have no right to enter
GROCERY still they persist in breaking the law
and the commandments On Saturday night last,
Captain Winters and Lieut.. Van Buren,, of the
Second Municipality police, arrested thirty of
these sooty personages, for holding unlawful assem-
blies. They were found in bar-rooms and cabarets
of the lowest description, carousing and gambling
to their hearts content. Most of them were releas-
ed upon the payment of a fine, but those who had
obdurate masters had to submit to twenty-five
lashes EACH We are informed by the heads Of the
police, that one-haf of the robberies committed in
this city, are planned and carried out by the ne
groes who infest the lowest order of cabarets 1t is
in such dens that they concoct their measures and
make designations for nefarious purposes We are
glad to see that the police are alive upon this
subject.
