BALTIMORE SOUTHERN RELIEF FAR.--Among
the most pleasing features of this most generous
and most successful of the efforts to contribute to
the relief of the sufferers of the late war, stands
high that Of the noble and kindhearted A. E., table
number fifty. Her benevolent soul rose to the
very highest demands of the occasion, and in all
respects accomplished a glorous success. She
imbued all with whom she came in contact with
her own earnest feelings and commanded couf-
dencethat attracted all to herin whom the spirit Of
true liberality existed. AS one of those whomunif
Gently supported her in her endeavors we have
great pleasure in recognizing the able and worthy
pianofoete manufacturers, Messrs Stef & Bros,
who have never been found wanting when a gem
utne claim upon their kindness was presented to
them. They sent as their contribution one Of their
excellent pianos, 50 well and iayorably known for
excellence Of tone and durability of construction.
1t is needless to say how high y twas appreciated
and how handsomely it contributed to the sacred
object to which it was devoted. Those who have
used the instruments made by these gentlemen
will understand how much this slight notice of the
contribution really conveys.

BOLD ROBBERY Saturday forenoon Mrs.
William Evans and Mrs. Senter went to ono
Of the banks and drew out about S182, which
Mrs. Evans placed in leather reticule. On
their way home, when near the foot of Centrs
Street, they were accosted by fellow who en-
quired where Danforth Street was They gavs
him the information, and proceeded on thei.
way In high Street they were again acs ostel
by the same fellow, who exclaimed; this is
not Danforth Street" and then snatched ths
retcule, the chain breaking, and made off with
I il. Mrs. Senter gave an alarm, and pursued
the scoundrel down High Street Mr. Henry
Gallison and William HI. Kalor, who were in
awagon, with another gentleman, also joinedii
the pursuit. The fellow turned into court
and jumped over fence into yard, but Gal
lison and Krlor were hard after him, and
succeeded in arresting him. He had thrown
away the reticule during the chase, but it was
subsequently recovered, with the contents all
safe. i- i.' ''' LnA I-e4 ti1-N
The fellow appears to be about twenty years
old. He gave his name as James Kelley; says
he was born in Ireland, has no parents living,
has been in Baltimore and Philadelphia, and
that he had an accomphce in this transaction
whose acquaintance he made here about two
i weeks since. He was locked up for examin.-
