ORGAN GRINDERS AND BEGGARs.-We
notice that the annual visit of organ grim
ders, monkeys and beggars have COM
menced, and large numbers are daily
reaching our city. Our object in penning
these few lines, is to put our citizens on
their guard, and particularly our house
keepers. 1t is fact that denies all CONTRA
diction, that just as soon as the organ grim
ders commence coming, the beggars COM
mence too, which clearly goes to prove
that they are all banded together in their
stealing expedition.
The men take big organ and a mon
key, and strolling through our streets
now and then stopping before some
house and discoursing their music, (which
sounds to our ears like the crying of two
cats tied up in bag,) much to the enjoy
ment of children, niggers, dogs &C., by
this means they get good number of
coppers during the day.
The women. generally call upon our
housekeepers, carrying in their arms an
infant, and with most detected (put on)
countenance ask for something to eat, and
if chance is offered them to steal they
will certainly take advantage of it.
Yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock,
the door bell of gentleman's residence
was rung very violently, and the servant
answering the summons, beheld a wo-
man, having in her arms what she sup
posed to be baby, and in a very pitiful
voice asked the servant to be 80 good as
to give her something to eat The SER
want not suspecting, left the woman stan
ding at the door, while she could go and
get her something to eat. In a about
three or four minutes the servant return
ed with large quantity of victuals, and
two children's frocks. and to her utter
SurprlSe,IOu JnaC Jne woman mao gone.
The servant looked out the door and saw
her masters gloves laying Oh the pave
ment-tlc truth flashed across her mind
in her absence the thief had taken from
off table in the passage, cloak, two
caps and pair of gloves, and in her hur-
ry she had dropped the gloves on the
pavement, but succeeded in carrying of
the other articles We therefore war;
= all our house-keepers, not to leave beg
gars, in their open houses,and more espe
cially these asyn.phs who travel from plac
to place with these organ-grinders.

A POWDER CAsE.-A warrant was is
sued day or two since against Messrs.
Camp, Butler & Co., charging them with
landing Powder inside the city limits
The case was brought up before his Hon
or Mayor Ferguson this morning for ex-
animation. 1t was the opinion of the
Mayor. that the law had been violated by
Messrs. G. B. & Co., not by intention, but
by circumstances over which they had no
control; and as the same thing had been
done often before and no notice taken of

Mark was leaving the Court House. e

ANOTHER SHANGHAI FREAK.-We

with perfect hard shells, and every ordi-
nary appearance Of the egg. The outer
egg being much larger than those of or
binary size, whilst the inner one is about
the size ola common hens egg. The ou-
ter egg contains yelk, the inner one has
not been broken but is believed to have
