7AFomaIe Pickpocket.

i
Elizabeth McCarty, recognized by de-
tectiyes as notorious thief and pickpock-
ct, was before the Mayor yesterday morn
ing, charged with picking the pockets OF
two women in market, from one of whom
she took three dollars and from the other
five. 1t appeared also that the defendant
had some time since taken from lady in
the Messrs. Fay's store pocket book con-
tanning ten dollars. The pocket book was
foq1dan her possession and identified. Mrs.
McCarty, for she said she was the mother
of six children residing in, or near Phila-
delphia, could give no satisfactory account
Of herself, or wherefore she was lettering
about the city. She was fined $50 and
costs, and sent to the county jail for thirty
days,

We gave a brief account in Thursday
mornings issue OF six burglaries committed
in the city on Tuesday night, and the arrest
of two of the culprits-William Meyers
and William Miller. Yesterday their cases
came up before the Mayor on preliminary
examination. Meyers acknowledged his
participation in three burglaries, and was
required to find bail in the sum Of 1900
$500 for each offense. Miller waived an ex-
animation, and bail was required of him in
sum Of $1,000 $500 for each of two distinct
burglaries. Both, in default Of bail, were
sent to the county Jail, to await the actor
OF the Court of Common Pleas in theil
respective cases.

Orficor Huffman and the Burglars.

OFFICER Huffman and the Burglars
The burglars, of whom we gave some ac-
count in our last paper, commenced their
operations on North High street. then went
to Long, and thence to Rich street. The
firing that occurred, on the corner of High
and Gay streets, after the arrest of one of
their number "a boy), was between the two
other burglars on one side, and officer
W. B. Huffman on the other. On the cor
ner four shots were fired at Huffman, three
of which made holes in his coat. Without
tlinching, having worevolvers, he returned
their fire. They fled down Gay to Water
street, Huffman pursuing, and he and the
fugitives alternately firing at each other.
He succeeded in pretty severely wOunding
in the hip the rogue who was afterward
captured at the North Grave Yard. For
his GOODNESS and intrepidity, Officer Huff
man deserves high praise. -.t -

The Wheeling Register gives an account of
the stabbing, on Tuesday last, of white
boy named William Wilson, of that city, by
negro named Charley Morris. The boy
was engaged washing himself at his home,
when the negro approached and struck him
blow with billy, knocking him down.
Wilson attempted to escape into the
house, but before he could do so, the ne
gro pulled knife from his coat pocket,
with which he cut the boy, inhicting a
severe if not dangerous wound. The negro,
Morris, fled to Bridgeport, but was arrested,
brought back to Wheeling, and placed in
jail. This is the third time, the Register
says, this same blackguard has attempted
to cut and kill white persons. No cause is
assigned for this assault on young Wilson,
who is quiet and peaceable boy. -

An Argument That Strikes the

Especial TO the New York Daily NeTsl
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The leading Re-
publicans here are getting somewhat
alarmed at the recent preeipitate action OF
the House in choking down Mr.. Maynard
ofTennessee, a Thoroughly loyal man and
a strong personal friend of the President.
1t is understood that Mr.. johnson has de-
clared that he will not confer the offices at
his disposal upon those who oppose his pol
icy Of reconstruction, nor will he appoint
the friends of those opposing him in this
policy. n .u1g $50. N.Yls- -tf..eiJ a...I.
The Republican leaders are therefore
comforted with the loss OF all Executive
patronage, and itstaggers them prodigiousr
iy, as there is scarcely member who has
not some favors to ask for his political
friends. Already many of the members be-
gin to manifest u change Of front, aud de-
Sire to be considered in any other attitude
than that of hostility to the President.
1t is to be hoped that this timely hint
from the President may yet result In a co,
alition of the conservative Republicans and
Democrats, sufficiently powerful to check
the malignant spirit Of the Radicals.

old customs that were INDUCED in when

our country to prosperity, and the high
position she held among the nations of the
