who was brought into the lower station-house on Wednesday evening in a perfectly helpless condition, was arraigned before Mayor Saunders yesterday for drunkenness. She admitted that she had taken a dram, but was not intoxicated. She made a piteous appeal for a release, stating that she would never be brought before him again if excused this time. The Mayor admonished and dismissed her. J. B. Vaughan, a small man with grey hair and a moustache dyed jet black, was charged with having been drunk in the street. It appeared that he was found by Major Claiborne leaning against a lamp post, and was subsequently arrested. In consideration of the fact that this was his first appearance, the Mayor discharged him, with a warning against a repetition of his offence. R. W. Starke was also charged with getting drunk and laying down to take a nap in the streets. He is a man apparently of about forty years; genteelly dressed, but very muddy. The Mayor admonished and discharged him.

ns of our paper with the particulars of a burglary, we listened with wonder at the marvellous tales of the ubiquitous metropolitan policeman, and wondered why Mr. Mayo did not organize such a force in Richmond. How innocent we were then! But now, since we have been brought within the pale of "civilization," beyond which we were excluded for four years, new institutions and new arts have been introduced amongst us, which have led to the establishment of the long-wished-for police organization, which makes Richmond, beyond all doubt, a "flourishing place." While we regret very much the necessity for establishing such a force as the one we now have, we are glad that the necessity has been promptly met. We have now one hundred and twenty policemen armed and for duty. Major Claiborne, the efficient chief, with the confidence and respect he enjoys from the citizens, needs only the support and co-operation of the authorities to bring our city back to its former peace and quiet.

Garroted. --Michael Hunt, a citizen, while returning home on Thursday night, about 11 o'clock, was set upon by two men, whose purpose it was to rob him; but before the rascals succeeded in their designs, policemen Rhodes and Morris, who happened to hear Mike's cries for help, ran to his assistance just in time to arrest the highwaymen as they were in the act of fleecing his pockets. The names of the robbers are John Carroll and Cyrus McConway, both members of the Twenty-fourth Massachusetts Infantry, Company "C." They were assigned quarters at Major Claiborne's Old Market Inn.
