SALOON KREPE1.--NotWithsta the
wholesome effect Of the war in wedding cut
oi The garden Of vagabOnds which has grown
up in our city many Of the most notorious
characters, there seem 10 be ystsnough re-
manning 70 keep the ball Of crime rolling
snd indeed We doubt ifin any equal period
before thers has been 90 much Of the higher
{Psrhapa We should say loWsr) order oi vii
lainy in our city as has tTsnspired within
dhe past tkrss months. BurFlaries have
been particularly numerous, and there can
Be no doubt that organised bands for the
preparation Of this crime exist among rs,
Most Of the members Of which, we aPpre-
hend, come from other cities. These scoun-
drels were are work on Saturday night, and
several houses were entered and rsnsacked
By them. oue Of the houses entered was
ahs residences Of Mrs.. +. C. Hoyt, no. sls
Ferry stress, 70 which they gained admis-
sion through The front doer, unlocking the
door by turning the key, which was left in
chs lock, on the inside, with pair Of nip
psrs- They probably vent Immediately up
atairs, and entering room occupied BY
couple Of young gentlemen boGrdsrB, took
from q stand 81 The head Of the bed a gold
WsteR and chain Of considerable value, and
losrrisd OG de pantalOOns Of one Of the
young men, in whioh we're the keys 70 his
employers (A[r. Joseph Perkins, Office and
aafs, The latter containing large sum of
money. With this booty they LEFT, it Is
supposed from fright, Is much that is val
noble, and the garments of other parties
oOntainiDg money, we're unmOlested, though
perfectly acclssibIs. Upon their departure
4hsy leftths front door wide open.
The residence Of John A. FOote, Esq,
No. 12l Kinsman street, wss also entered
and ranHaeked, and pair of silver butter
knives and two dozen silver spoons taken.
Admission was gained 70 the house through
q wing on the east part, which is unOceupi-
e, and the door Of which had been left
1aloaksd. From this wing they forcibly
entered che parlor, and thence proceeded to
othar para Of the house. Fortunately, the
greater porsioz Of the silver ware belong
ting to Mr. F. was secured beyond their
reach. Il is probable that they were also
fishtsnsd aEhy from here By The moving
about Of . memhaz Of the family Ia attend
anes upon sick child. A silver pen-hold-
er. belonging to lady visitor, was found
sunday morning upon the front stairs,
which renders the inference reasonable that
their exit was hasty and caused by fright.
A house o. Erie street, which We were un-
abls 70 Learn, Is also reported to have been
entered ths sams wight, a1d watch taken.
Early Sunday moSping she Marshal was
Informed Of the depreS otiOnS, and instruct

suspect that the burglars were to be fnund ct

they could. fhsy want to the house, and
going to an Sp-StsirS bedroom, found IN

whom was The L, ,viorfOua Long Shore Bill

down stairs. The Of hScers, after short con
sultation, determined % Errest the tW'
others, bat as they were about 70 proceed al

oaths and threats, refusin. = to let them pass
and locked the door Of the bedroom. IN
omeers then conferred ss 10 whether or no
they should break in the daor, and u th

through 6 window, and no knowledge has =
yst been gained Of their whereabouts. The
arrested man vas taken to thsstation, where

Ihe dsapieabIe conduct Of siddOns, IN thul
interfering with The Ohlcsrs Of the law in the
prosecution Of their duty, should not be per-
