Stealing Jewelry. --A youth named George Sullivan, who said that he had no relatives living, nor any friends upon whom he could call in a case of emergency, was before Mayor Saunders yesterday on the charge of stealing a breastpin from the store of Mitchell & Tyler, on Main street. No witnesses being in attendance, the investigation of the case was postponed until to-day.

as made for the arrest of the man, and he was arrested; he said he was badly wounded, and was carried to Dr. White's office. Mrs. Ould had a pistol in her hand at the time she was arrested. Believed that Mrs. Ould was in a state of frenzy, and did not know what she was doing. The shooting at that time was all over. He had seen Mrs. Ould every night on his beat, and she knew him well. Meade, being recalled, stated that he was confined to his bed some twelve or fourteen days on account of the wound. Andrew J. Ford stated that he knew nothing about the case. Dr. White gave a description of the wound. It was about an inch and a half from the spine, and being so near the muscles of the back, it was impossible to probe it. At this point, Mr. Saunders adjourned the further investigation of the case until to-day at 11 o'clock. Witnesses were recognized to appear. Marmaduke Johnson, Esq., and Colonel D. G. McIntosh are the counsel in this most extraordinary case.

Fighting in the Market. --George W. Duncan, a young man apparently not twenty-one years of age, was before Mayor Saunders yesterday on the charge of fighting with a negro in the Second Market. Mr. Howard testified that he was in the market on Thursday morning and heard an altercation between the accused and a negro, the latter applying to Duncan a profane and vulgar epithet. Could not say which struck the first blow. Mr. H. H. Starr testified to facts almost similar. The Mayor required Duncan to give surety in the sum of $100 to keep the peace towards all the citizens of the Commonwealth for twelve months.

ly to be shown where their good works are needed Here, then, they have an opportunity for charitable deeds. Some of the sources of support have been suddenly withdrawn, and these good ladies are now much straitened to keep their noble work in operation. The Female Asylum has thirty orphans, and it is with much difficulty that they can be fed and clothed. They have energetic matrons to take care of them who express a determination to persevere in their efforts, although the funds of the Association are too low to pay their salaries. Let our citizens come forward and do all in their power to relieve them from their embarrassments. Let them remember, also, that some of these orphans are the children of soldiers, who gave up their lives for Virginia, and left their little ones to the charities of the country for which they were sacrificed. Contributions will be thankfully received by Mrs. Lipscomb, Directress of the Female Asylum, and Mrs. Saunders, of the Male Asylum.

Another Fight in an Auction-House, &c. Yesterday morning, Isaac Cohen and Ezekiel Myers, Israelites, made their appearance before Mayor Saunders to answer the charge of fighting in Messrs. Digges & Apperson's auction house. From the evidence, it seems that a competition arose between the parties about who should have a lot of shoes that were put up for sale. Cohen led off and Myers followed, whereupon Cohen got angry and threatened Myers with castigation if he persisted in running up the goods. This admonition increased Myers's estimate of the value of the articles, and up went another bid; but hardly had he given the wink to the inimitable Digges before "down went his building," which demonstration was considered by the book-keeper as a "knock down and goner," and was so recorded on the ledger. Forthwith Myers procured a warrant and had Cohen arrested, in order that the whole matter might be referred to the arbitrament of his Honor. Cohen denied the assault upon Myers,

Another report about Stephens — he is said to be in Ireland.[Drogheda correspondence Saunders' News Letter.] There are strong grounds for believing that James Stephens is still on Irish soil. No sensible person would doubt this who had the opportunity of frequently passing through the rural districts, and entering into conversation with young men of the peasant class, who are evidently connected with the Fenian Society, and who assert that Stephens, even at the risk of his life, must remain in Ireland as the "Head Centre" of his country. When asked, a few days ago, why it was
