BIRD STEALISG.-Many of our colored
population have acquired new tastes with
their freedom which are very hard to
crafty. Some of them have strong
passion to be the owner of mule, acanaIy
or a moeking bird, and take the first OPP
portunity to possess one, honestly If
they can, rascally if they must. As a
natural consequence, many people suffer
by the loss Of their pets A colored lady
known as Molie Hyatt took a fancy to a
mocking bird, hanging in front of a
house on Washington street yesterday,
and Immediately took possession of the
cage, bird, etc, and proceeded to march
home in triumph. The owner of the
bird was a witness to the con6scation,
and knowing that Stevens bill, giving
the property Of white persons to negroes
had not become law, called a police
man and had Mollie put in the station
house to answer the charge Of conhsea'
ton or stealing.
