ROBBERY ON A STEAMB0AT.--As the
steamer Mary E. Forsyth reached the
wharf yesterday, young man named
James Hslbert came ashore, and seeking
police officer, told him that ne hsd
been robbed the previous night osnearly
Two hundred dollars in specie and eur
rency, and could point out the party VINO
he thought had done it. The officer went
sooard with him and, at his instigsuon,
arrested very respectfully dressed, and
good-looking young man, who gave bis
name, on being brought to the Adams
street station, as Martin Chisweil. The
circumstances of the robbery point very
strongly TO him IS the guilty party. Mr.
Halbert says that after he had retired
Sunday night, his room-mste had occa-
sion to leave the statsroOm, and mo-
ment after he went out, this young man
came in and commenced rummaging
among tAs clothing. Mr.. II. at first
thought that it wss his room-mste, but
soon found out that IL was not, and
asked the stranger what he wanted. He
replied that he had mistakens his
fe-stNAoo4-4 AHu HCAb On'- 0AAs - ~
and examined his clothing to see if
everything was right, and finding his
property all right, again retired. His
room mate soon came in and retired, and
out few minutes elapsed before the
door opened and the stranger again en-
tered. On being spoken to he retired,
zxcusiDg himself by saying that he had
again mistaken his stateroom. The gen.
tlsmea then went TO sleep, and on arising
yesterday morning found that somebody
had succeeded in gaining admittance a
third time, and had gone through their
taking from the p0cket-book OF
ar. Halbert sixty-fiVe dollars in green
backs and hundred and twenty dollars
In gold. Everything pointed to the man
who had twice surTeptitiously entered
the room, and, as related, as SOON as the
steamer reached the landing, they caused
his arrest. Col. Beaumont will give the
matter an Investigation to-day.

The IMPENDING CONFLICT Citizens
On Jefferson street and around the levee,
were somewhat astonished, and their
nerves rendered not little shaky last
night az seeing several squads Of the
Metropolitan Police armed with rifles
and cartridge boxes, and looking as If
jhey were on "deeds of death and dire
destruction dight." In a few minutes
after they appeared thus on the streets
the widest sort OF rumors were rife and
gained credence. By some 1t was stated
that a Kukiux raid was anticipated, and
that Col. Beaumont intended to exter
inmate them. Others had it that Judge
Lewis and Gen. Smith, the five hundred
pound and fifty pound Jumps OF
iniquity, had returned from Nash
vile, and were on the war path, and
with scslpiug knife and tonahawk were
after the great Ku-klux-eatchers, who
had called out his trusty followers to re-
pei them. The secret, however, leaked
out that they were merely to preserve
the peace in case a certain meeting was
held on the bluff, and certain threats OF
the Buzzsrd R5Ost wing Of the Radical
party were carried out. The BuzzArds,
however, finding the game thus stocked
on them, concluded not TO use the r post
and held their meeting In the Chancerv
Court rcom, thus avoiding all chances of
a collision. At writing (Iaidnight1 order
reigns supreme, and no signs OF q ekrin,-
mage.

The first bale of cotton of the new
crop ever received in Memphis was on
the 18Th of this month. This was some
years ago or previous to the war. It was
consigned to E. NJ. Apperson, Esq. The
first bale of the crop of 1866 was re-
ceived by the same gentleman on the
18th of August. On the 3lst of August.
1867, Delap & Co. received the first bale.
1t cIsssed Afiddling and sold for 40c. A
new bale was received to-day consigned
to Mhoon & Co., Of this city, but We can
not consider it legitimate Memphis
bale, 1t was raised on the plantation of
Mr.. E. P. Tyroe, OF Washington county,
Miss, classes barely Low Middling, and
will not weigh 400 pounds. Apart from
its weight we do not think it can be con-
sidered as properly belonging to Mem
phis, but should have been shipped to
New Orleans, where the whole crop of
Washington county seeks a market.
We question whether that county has
sent so bales to this market in the past
wear. With about the same propriety
could the first Texas bale find its way
to Memphis, or those recently received
at New Orleans, Selma, Montgomery or
Mobile be sent here. Cotton COM
ing from the section of country
tributary to Memphis alone should
be entitled TO the consideration due
the "a first bale,p and it only should
receive the reward which custom
has given to the enterprise and energy Of
the shipper. The bale alluded to shove
was unsold lsst evening, though we
learn that 85c was bid for it.
The cotton market for the week has
been irregular, opening in Liverpool at
gid for Uplands, while in New York Up
lands were weak at 29@29lc. There was
no change until Thursday, when Up
