STRAW BAIL.-Thc Mayor has occasion
almost daily to reject bail offered for the
good behavior of persons charged with
offences against the law, on account of its
utter worthcssness. On yesterday negro
was required to give security to keep the
peace, and straightway his brother came
up and offered himself as bondsman.
"What property have youf' said the
Mayor. "Oh," was the reply, "Ive got
enough to pay hundred dollars; Eve got
4 horse" "That will not do answered
the Mayor: and the unfortunate darkey
was " set back" Presently up comes an
other negro, somewhat stylish in appear
ancc, and rendered himself as bail.
"Well," said the Mayor, "what property
have you got H' "Why, Mr.. Maybe, I've
got t,oo horses" was the answer. "Now,"
said the Mayor, 81 want it understood,
once for all, that l can't take straw bail !;
and horse comes as near straw bail as
anything. A horse may take the bolts,
which is radical disease, and die to-mor-
row. Then where is the security A horse
is here to-day and gone tomorrow ; he is
transitory property; and, in short, / can
can take nothing like that as bail in this
court" Whether any more horses were
offered or not we don't know; but our i'm
preston is that the "accused" went to
iail.

GEORGE KUSKEL AND HIS NIGHTINGALEs
have delighted our citizens for some ten
nights with chastc Ethiopian entertain
ments, and won golden opinions from the
throngs that have heard them. Their
songs are of the highest order of musical
merit, their witticisms brilliant, character
istic, and pure; so that "the American
citizen of African descent" is truly held up
to nature to our delight and the no small
amusement of beholders. In short, these
are the only entertainments of the kind
given in Richmond which deserved the
names of chaste and elegant; and we are
indebted to Mr.. kunkel for them.
In the kindness of his heart he has given
Il benefit to one Of the most laudable of our
public charities, and his name is now pre-
sented as a beneficiary on Friday evening
and we trust his generosity and the cha
racter of his entertainment will cause
crowds to flock to the Metropolitan Hall,
that he may bear from Richmond sub.
stantial token of the appreciation of its
people for the refined and meritorious.
The following graceful acknowledgment
from the ladies of the Relief Association
will be read with pleasure by the many
friends of Mr.. kunkel:
RICHMOND, August %, 1866.
"The lady committee Of the Baltimore
Southern Orphan Relief Association re-
turn sincere thanks to Mr.. Kunkcl for his
noble generosity in having given benefit
in behalf of that Association
"The melody Of the deep-toned voice
who sang Rocked in the Cradle Of the
Deep and The Sexton will not easily be
forgotten, and will watt DER us in future
years as an incense of the past.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.-Last night between
the hours of IL and IL o'clock, dense
volumes of smoke were discovered to bo
issuing from the warehouse OF Messrs.
West & Beardsley, wholesale commission
and grocery merchants, on Pearl street,
between Main and Cary. The alarm was
immediately given, but before anything
could be done to check the fire the whole
building was enveloped in flames.
Inc building was owned by Messrs.
West & Beardslcy, and was for.
merly owned and occupied by Mr.. w.
Ii. Alderdice. The second floor of it was
occupied by Messrs. McClernan s. Blum
as tobacco warehouse. Their stock of
tobacco, amounting to about two thousand
dollars worth, was entirely consumed.
There was no insurance upon this. The
entire stock of Messrs. West & Beardslcy
was consumed. Their building was insured,
but the goods only partially.
The fire is still raging as we 60 to press.
The stores of Messrs. Hill s. Poteat, on
the one side of Messrs. West s. Beardsley,
and Mr.. James j. Foster on the other, have
been considerably damaged and are threat
ened with destruction.
The fremen were promptly on the
ground, and are working hard to extin-
guish the fire.
The fire was undoubtedly the work of
an incendiary, as there was no fire known
to be about the building prior to the dis
covcry.
