An old Game.

--A young female, genteelly dressed, called on a Main street merchant yesterday morning, and solicited and received money to buy refreshments for wounded soldiers in a private hospital. The gentleman afterwards learned that there were no wounded soldiers in the hospital of which the lady spoke, and that no lady had been authorized to beg for any of its patients.
