BOARDING HOUSE ROBBERY. = The
petty thieving negroes are on the ramp
age, and snatch clothing at every oppor-
tunity to provide themselves against the
cold blasts of winter. They also take
money, jewelry, or any other little thing
that is not too hot or two heavy. Several
boarding houses have suffered lately, and
people who leave their doors open should
sleep with one eye open. Last night raid
was made on Mrs. Baxters boarding
house, on Poplar street. Morris Roberts
was robbed of silver watch, and his
bed fellow lost his pocket book and sew
eral other things. They did not discover
the robbery until morning.

business will soon be settled so that
something can be done to improve our
streets, many of which are in wretched
condition, the rain during the last few
days giving US foretaste of what we
may expect during the winter if left in
their present state. The Street Commits
sioner, or "any other man " whose BUSH
ness it may be, should keep his eye on
parties who dig up our streets, and see
that they leave things as they found them.

MAN SHoT-QUITE SUSPICIOUS. Yes
terday morning policeman found man
lying on the pavement near the Gayoso
House bleeding profusely. The man
stated that he had been shot in the right
leg at late hour on Saturday night by
some person on a steamboat just as it
backed out and passed down the river.
He was taken to the hospital and proper
ly cared for, but refused to give his name.
There are several suspicious circum-
stances connected with the affair, and it
is thought by some that he was wounded
while trying to break into house.

WONDERFUL ExcITENENT.-This cap
ton of itself is sufficient to arouse all to
immediate action, and when they see the
full import of its meaning, doubtless
many will awake to their interest, as
nothing can move the community sooner
than King Money, and sometimes King
Cotton, but now King Real Estate seems
to be in advance, and if there is not suf-
6cient inducements under consideration
to arouse all to action, nothing can be
done. The invitation, as well as the in
terest involved, is quite an incentive to
move the most obdurate, as their fortune
can be obtained without money. Who
can or will neglect this chance, and be
left without an excuse. We say, only
read the invitation as advertised ard act
in accordance with your wise decision,
