WE clip the following sad tale of
suffering from the Nashville Banner
of the 10Th inst: 'd'7J L.ih - bilt

D. |
People are too apt to consider suffering in
the abstract. II IL difficult apparently for
many to recognize want and distress when
they are brought fice to face with II. Times
are hard now and money scarce, and poy-
crty pinches the poor of Nashville as 1t has
not before in a long, long time. A few days
ago poor woman with one child applied
to merchant tailor for work. He gave
her pair Of pants TO make, and told her
he would pay her twenty cents for the job
He further cautioned her that If she soiled
the garment he could pay her nothing
She took home the cloth with a sad heart
and completed the work after ~ hard days
toll. 5iThemerchant tailor graci sly hand
cd her out tho stipulated twenty cents for n
Job for which he received So. This kept to-
gether soul and body of mother and child
fortwo days and then the poor woman got
the making of ehild's suit, for which she
was to be paid 81. s'he begged II little OF the
money IN advance, but II was refused. Our
readers know how cold IL WAS a woclt ago.
She had no fire to sew byand was compelled
TO wrap herself up IN the bed clothes with
her pinched and famished cliild and sew
away in her cold and cheerlcss room. A
Christian minister of Nashville, one of
those noble men who delight to do good
among tho lowly, found her at this june
ture and succeeded in finding her more re-
munerative employment. This good peo-
Pile Of Nashville, IL but a single instance.

HIGHWAY RoBBERY. About twelve o o'clock
on Saturday night, q man named Henry
Clay, from Poolesyille, Nd, was found by
officers Hess and Mastin lying In Cherry
alley, Georgetown, entirely destitute OF cloth
ing. The officers took Clay 70 the station
house, where he told Lieut.. Essex that he
had been robbed, aud described the robbers.
From the description OF the villains the
lieutenant caused warrants 10 be Issued for
the arrest Of Seth Lunsford and II. II. Jones,
two wcll-known characters Of the town.
From the statement Of Clay II appears that
the men approached him while passing
through Cherry alley, and rendering him
helpless, proceeded 70 divest him Of every
stitch Of clothing, excepting portion Of his
shirt, with which they departed, leaving him
lying In tho alley, where he was found shortly
amer by the officers. In his coat pocket was
a wallet continuing about $50.
The warrants wcrc placed In the hands Of
Ohicer Miles, who arrested Lunsford and
Jones yesterday morning, the latter wearing
at the time the pants and vest OF the victim
Subsequently the coat containing the pocket
book, rincd Of Its contents, was found at the
house of an aunt OF Jones', on High street,
and Clay's hat was found In house In
Cisscl alley, where Il had been taken by
Lunsford. AMER hearing before Justice
Buckley the accused were committed to jail
to await the action Of the grand Jury. Luns
ford is an old offender, and has Just served
term In the Albany pcnitentiary, where u
Is likely he and his accomplish will agar
resume a bench for tho outrage Of which
they now stand accused.
