POLICE REPORT. -MAYOR's OFFICE. In
connection with the reports Of the doings at the
Mayors Office, especially on Sunday, there is
subject matter for serious consideration. In
many Of the cases brought to the notice of the
Mayor, appear faces familiar and we'll known, and
they naturally cause US to revert to otEcr days,
and ask what has wrought this dreadful change.
The only answer is, the dire effects of the desc
1atng war Here on Sunday, while the bells
arc ringing forth their solemn notes, for the
faithful followers Of the Redeemcr 10 come
to the House Of Worship, may be seen not few
who were once the pride and hope of those
who sleep their last sleep" We look upon
them, and shudder to think that so much has
been blasted Females particularly, who once
had a reputation, are lost Incidentally re
without a hope and men, bloated with deba-
sing habits, stalk around without even the show
Of mode5ty or decency. This is sufficient to
call forth the best energies of the philanthropIst
in this community, in order to stay the hand
of the despoilcr.and to try andreclalm the lost;
or shall 60 on, until the morals of our city are
ruined, and We, like the children of Israel, be
visited with punishment like that mentioned
in the 9th chapter Of Ezekiel. As the prophet
SAYS: rs there no balm in Gilcad, is there
no physician there?'
There was quietocss this morning at the
Mayors Office, inside at least; but single
case, ard that the most miserable, degraded,
and loathsome looking being that ever appear
ed there. He had profusion Of red, knotted
and combined locks, twisted, matted ard I'M
un:ombed for months. He was sent to the
Work House to assist Capt Stephenson in his
agricultural pursuits.
The usual gathering Of idle and dissolute
we're there, occupying the benches in front OF
the door, where free discussion on various
topics took place. Much earnestness was shown
bv nearly every enc present, interlarded with
anpuage, not the most classical or refined. A
regular stenograpber might have produced as
rich a treat as any that has enanated from the
public or private meanings OF the Farrets, Ter
ritorialists or Union Republicans, so-caiIed, as
Bill Arp would say.
