BURGLARY ExTRAORDINARY.-S0
during Friday night burglars entered the
clothing store of Mr.. 4. Sproule. under the
st. Charles Hotel, corner of St. Charles and
Gravier streets, and carried off about $500
worth of goods. The entrance was made on
Gravier street, by removing a door panel,
and it appears that the robbers were well in
with one of the cab drivers who stand III
that neighborhood at night, as the amount
Of goods taken could not possibly have been
carried off by hand. At nine O'Clock last
night Burnt Fingered Burns was arrested
on tho belief that he was in the affair, but
he protested, insisting that he was lnno-
cent. The thief, after taking all the articles
that he desired, departed by a fronS door,
leaving it open. One of the most singular
circumstances connected with the affair was
that two or three policemen were in the
immediate vicinity at the time. and heard
a suspicious noise, but could not learn
where it was or what it meant, although
they were On the alert.

ILLEGAL LoTrERY.-Detective Jules Du-

that they will win very distant dollar.
The rascal was sent before Judge Adams
and remanded to prison in default Of bail.

A VERY SINGULAR CAsE.-Several weeks
ago man was entered on the Charity
Hospital books as wounded in the bowels
and bis injuries appeared such as were
quite incurabe. His bowels protruded, but
the surgeons did their best to save the poor
fellows life. Although his intestines were
severed in two places the doctors tried to ease
his last moments and finally succeeded in
curing him; at least they healed the wounds
and fattered themselves, as well they
might. that they had effected an uncommon
cure. When the intestines were in proper
condition the unfortunate man began to
decline, and to-day is confirmed consump-
tive. past curing.

TOO MANY DoGs.-One of the greatest
nuisances that curses orr city is an uncom.
mon number OF cur dogs, which fact should
be we'll known to the city fathers, but they
seem to be obljvious of the circumstance
that thousands of miserable whelps Iare
travelling around town without owners or
anything else but themselves, NANCY and per-
haps rabid. All night and day these mser-
able creatures wander about without let or
hindrance, liable to perpetrate great misery,
vet the City Council has not taken single
step 20 abate the nuisance; in fact, not even
entertained the subject. Now is the time
TO send out poisoned sausages, and if Mayor
Leeds has particle OF consideration for
his constituents he will make at least one
effort to decrease the number OF bowling
ours that keep us awake at night.

TIE CASE OF HENRIETTA HALL-Oa the
seventh instant this woman was wounded
by a man whose name was unknown at the
time, but as the cut did not amount to more
than a common scratch nothing was
thought of it. After the man departed, the
woman, who lived at No. $50 Burgundy
street, bound up her injured hand with a
bit of cotton cloth and poured spirits of
turpentine on it, BY some unexplained
chance she set fire to the turpentine,
burning her hands, head and face ter
ribly. and she was sent to the Charity
Hospital. The wound On her hand was
easily cured, but the effects of the fire
could not be overcome. The extreme bones
of both hands were laid bare, as if the flesh
had been cut of with knife without touch
ing the nerves or muscles. The man who
wounded her had been arrested; but as the
woman. on'her dying bed, declared that she
could not possibly blame anybody for her
misfortunes, the man was released. She
died quite resigned to her fate.

MRS. MINNIE SHERlIAE-FITcH has
not yet recovered those diamonds from
the New York Custom-house officials.
The first resolution passed by Con-
gress, authorizing her husband as a
naval officer to accept the gift Of the
Khediye, was thought to relieve them
of tariff duty. 1t seems that the sec
ond resolution, expressly declaring
them free of duty, after passing one
House was stopped in the
other by Gen. Sherman who
enterta;ns a Quixotie notion that
none of his family shall receive any
thing from the Government except
what they earn, and says if the dia-
monds owe the United States anything
they must pay it. Meanwhile, Tecum-
sch is not wealthy, Fitch is poor, and
the diamonds remain in the custom.
house. The latest estimate Of their
value is $4,000 gold, and the duty is
SI7,50O. The Khedive Is said to be a
clever fellow, and though he cannot
understand the row, he may perhaps
send over the needed dollars as soon as
he learns the situation.

WHY BROWNLOW LEFT NASH.
WILLIE


WILLIE.
Nashville Correspon ience OF the Chicago Times.
After Brownlow had been elected
Governor of Tennessee the second time,
he had one of the rooms In the capitol
fitted up as a sleeping room, and had
his meals brought to him, thus making
the building his home. Finally the
impetuous old man got into a rumpus
with Fletcher, the Secretary of State,
and Blackburn, the Comptroller, who
revenged themselves upon him by
hunting up an old act Of the Legisla-
ture declaring that no room IN the
Capitol building should ever be used
as a sleeping apartment. where
upon BrownloW ordered his goods
packed, and at once departed
for his home at Knoxville,
explaining to tie Secretary of State
that his salary was too low to warrant
him in renting a house, and, as the
State was too sungy to provide a resi-
dence Tor her Governor, he would use
his own. He directed all business in
tended for the Governors Office to be
forwarded to Knoxville, declaring he
would never return to Nashville again.
Since his election as United States
Senator, he told friend of mine in
Washington from whom I get the
story that he never expected to visit
Nashvilleaga il he should ivea centn-
~ longer. To besure, thisis verysevere
on Nashville, but her people are brave
ly bearing thei, affection, and may
weather through it, especially as there
is a full-sized painting of the "Parson"
hanging in the State Library, which is
an excellent likeness.

THE United States Supreme Court
decided, on Tuesday last, the following
points as to the status of Legislatures
in the Confederacy during the war:
In these cases the question was
whether insurance companies chartered
by the State of Georgia when In re-
belhOn, have any legal existence. The
court holds that as the Legislature was
the law-making power Of a State de
facto, all enactments not In actual hos
tility TO the Constitu; ion and the Union
Of the States, and not prohibited, must
he held to have the force generally &C
corded to the action of de facto public
officers. Any other doctrine, it is said,
would work unnecessary hardship up
on the people of the States IN rebel
lion without corresponding benefit to
the people of the other States, and
without any advantage to the National
Government. The incorporating acts
had no relation to anything else than
the domestic concerns Of the State,
and must be treated as valid.

WE must record a fresh feature and

agents at Chicago Of the various lines
have watched with Ristlui eyes an i'm

signment began to move, and it took
the Baltimore and Ohio route. The
