CHIEF OF POLICE ITENs.-John Johns, a

Mr.. Goddin.
Henry Roanes, negro, was charged with
stealing lot of shoes, clothes, and boots, the
property of Nathan Bowles and Gabriel Hen
merry, both negroes.
Annie OKeefe was charged with assaulting
and beating Bridget O'Keefe.
William Anderson, negro, was charged Win
stealing twenty dollars in notes and one dollar

THE RICHMOND RELIEF AssoCIATION.-We
are gratifed to learn that dramatic per-
formance will be given at the Theatre during
the present week in aid of the Richmond Asso-
citation for the relief of the poor. The pro-
gramme will be probably issued tomorrow,
and no appeal on our part should be necessary
to insure a full house upon the occasion. The
Rev. Mr. Grew is about to start on trip
through the northern and western States TO
obtain Subscriptions and there Is every reason
to believe that his efforts will be crowned with
substantial success. 1t will not do, however,
to depend upon the generosity OF others, ana
our own citizens must be prepared to reneve
their own Door. If the visitors and directors
of the association will work, they will obtain
abundant donations, but they cannot expect
that money will be given generally which
is not particularly asked for. Contribu-
tions of clothing in aid of the association Will
be received by Messrs. Martin Cordozo, at
the corner of Twelfth and Cary. The City
Council has appropriated one thousand dollars
in aid of the association, and it Is hoped that
their affairs will soon be placed upon hrm
and substantial footing.

cause we fully appreciate the value of our re-
claimed lands, and how advantageous it would be
for our city if all our vegetable productions re-
quired for home consumption could be raised
within our own locality. Nay, by obtaining in the
course of time proper number of able cultirators
of our vacant lands around our suburbs, we might
be enabled to supply the great many sea-going
vessels which again shall visit our port as IN
former years, and for whom the green market pro-
Visions procurable in our harbor, to last them on
board such steamers are plying to Liverpool or
Havre, would indeed be most inappreclable ad-
vantage. This feature, the procuring OF tresn
market provisions for such outward bound pas
senger packet would not little add to the credit
and renown of our Louisiana farmers, and although
seemingly very trifing circumstance, would add
immensely to the idea which practically we must
try to impress foreign population with, that is to
saw. the infinite resources Of our country and eli
mate and the spirit and industry of our residents.
Let u.s. then, by all means encourage the local I'M
proyements around our city, one of which not to
be lost sight of is the keeping in good repair the
thoroughfares surrounding the city farm regions,
which latter enterprise is become of easy execu-
ton now that the wear and tear of the pavement
and shell roads has so sensibly diminished.

INsuRANCE.--We think that in these times every
man ought to insure his life not only against acct
dent, but death from any cause; .and we take
pleasure in commencing the Globe Mutual Life In
surance Company of New York as worthy of the
confidence and patronage of our citizens. 1t offers
the most abundant security, and presents rare in
ducements to those insurng. Owing to the great
experience of its managers, the prosperity and
rapid increase of the company has never been
equaled. Parties desiring insurance will further
their own interests by taking policy in the Globe
Mutual James B. Guthrie, No s Story building,
corner camp and common streets, will give all me-
eessary information in regard to the matter.

A RUSH ON GuDIG's SroRE.-We believe that
everybody will go to Mr.. John A. Gidig's store,
No. 1877 Canal street, to-day. The reason we think
is that he advertses that he will sell fine goods
at low prices, and he always does what he says.
As everybody wants fine goods at low prices, of
Course it follows that everybody will go to his
store,

@ GREAT SouTHERN LIFE AND ACCIDENT In
suRAScE coMPANY. The subject of insurance is
one which has long claimed the attention of COM
mercia men, and has, through series of years,
won al almost universal adoption in the business
COMMUNITIES Of the world. The prudent, dscarding
the doubtful wisdom Of those who practice the
"peDny wise and pound foolish system, have
discovered that they can better spare a little
from their gains ID the hour Of their prosperity
than the loss Of their all when misfortune over
fakes them. And yet, although the vast majority
have reached this sensible conclusion in the ad-
ministration Of their property real and personal,
but comparatively few hive followed it to its
Legitimate sequence in the more important rela-
tons of life, when the welfare Of those whom we
love best depends on our security from accident,
~ the support and maintenance of our families
hang on the fragile thread Of our existence. The
reason for this inconsistency in the conduct of
their Affairs is hard TO divine it may be want of
moral courage to contemplate misfortune and
death like the dotard who trembles to make will
i6st 40 die; but, whatever It be, the rational
mind cannot but smile at the merchant or me-
chanic who seeks with ayidity an insurance upon
nis property, while his life--the ship that is
frsighted with more than the wealth Of the Indies
pursues It's risky course, unsecured and exposed
g every passing storm and hidden rock. We in

The Confederate Dead.
Crucis''

"a. Crescent-I have noticed in your paper sew
era times, honors being paid to the Confederate
dead, The Confederate army was, as every one
knows, composed of the first blood of the South.
How many went forth to battle for their
native South-what hardships did they endure for
the cause that was deemed by them SIS just end
holy one.
We, ex-Confederates, who have escaped the
dangers Of the battle field, are compelled to ac-
knowledge the total defeat of Southern arms, but
our dead brethren, who were more unfortunate,
have given up their lives and should never be for
gotten.
Let as show to the radical fanatics of the North
that, though we are willing to acquiesce in the
decree of war, and are willing to give up our
cherished hopes of separate nationality, we will
never give up the memory of our glorious Confed-
crate soldiers many of whom sleep their last sleep
on the field of many hard fought battle. Let us
renter our dead, and then let us faithfully stand
by the generous and magnanimous President, and
sustain him in his position against his radical enc
mics. &'G0fFEDERAFR.
The best way to retain ones health is to be care
full about the quality of the food we eat. Many
poor fellow has been put under the sod
who would be among the living now, had
he been careful in this respect. 1t is
the eommonest thing in the world to see man
who prides himself about his Judgment in drink
ing nothing but the best Yet he is not obliged
to drink, and perhaps only acquired his facility il
judging the quality of liquors by long practice ant
many bitter experiences. With eating the cas-
is different. We have it to do, we like to do it
and have done it and liked doing it since infancy
There is also as much danger from eating bad foot
as in drinking bad liquor, nay, more; but few per
sons turn their attention to becoming expert
discovering faults in it. We hope to note chahs
in this matter, and see such grocers at +. name
