A Worthless Flower.

--An individual bearing the charming cognomen of Robert Flower, was taken into custody yesterday by officer Seal, on a charge of stealing a coat from a negro. It is strongly suspected that Bob is the author of some other roguish transactions, of which the police have lately been on the scent — though we cannot say that it was through the agency of their olfactories that this crushed fragment of a bouquet yesterday came to be incarcerated.
