From the " Keport of the Board of Directors, fcc, of the Penitentiary of Xorth Carolina we glean these facts: Number of persons confined Nov. 1, '72, 36(5, classified as follows white males, 59; white females 1; colored males, 291: colored females, 15. Of the 493 confined daring the year, 318 were sentenced, for f larceny;,; 82 for hurglary, 17 for-liorscatcalin.ifl . for- manslaughter, 14 for murder, 14 for arson, 12 for robbery,. 14 forrape.and attempt to commit same. These fig- tires show that mens nnhallowed creed of gain leads them to. commit more crimes than any other cause. - As to counties the convicts am dis tributed: .2 from! Wake, 21" "from Craven, 18 from New ' Hanover,' 10 from lieaufort, etc., showing a pre jnderance of crime in the great ne- 'ro counties.

We have not heretofore taken the slightest no nce 01 tnese evu-disposed creatures, and we only do so now to prevent fair-minded, honorable persons from being deceived, and lost our continued sileaire; be'eonstrued' into' I an admission of the truth of these infamous iulnehoods, v .-therefore earnestly invite the General Assembly by such mode they tleern proper tp make an investiga- on ot the management 01 the penitentiary J' on ihe disbursement ot the public Hinds. nvniAL qp jiB. gqeeley.

Goodness 1 what a currency I We are requested to call ' attention to the crossing over the street railway at the corner of Red Cross and mcnae streets.

" A Tblne of Beauty.' That grand old specimen of Gothic archi tecture, the city Market-house, still stands in the centre of Market street, the pride and glory of every appreciative Wilmingtonian, and the admiration of every stranger who gazes at its majestic proportions. And not only is the building, the .great attraction of modern times; but the location strikes every beholder with a feeling bordering on adora tion for the City Fathers who selected it, as well as for' those who refuse now to permit the ruthless hand of Progress to undo the splendid work of the past Long may this enduring monument of municipal enterprise stand, a tribute to its founders and a rebuke to 'that fanatical spirit of progress which would mar the beau ty of our great thoroughfare by robbing it of its greatest attraction. City Fathers of Wilmingtoni hearken not to the siren voice of the destroyer. Let that Market-house stand, if you would have fu ture generations rise up and call you blessed. In the language of "old Witt," " Wood man spare that tree." Ttae Grab-Game. A case occurred on our streets yesterday which should be a warning to our friends from the rural districts to be careful what sort of company they suffer themselves to fall into when visiting the city and of the all-important duty of keeping a sharp look out for the safety of the hard-earned pro ceeds of their labor from the clutches of the sharpers who infest the community. One of our country friends happened to be passing on Second, between Market and Dock streets, when he was halted by a col ored individual, who pretended to be able to. perform some astonishing trick and tried to secure a bet from our friend on the strengthof.it. Finally the sharper asked the countryman for a chew of tobacco. The latter, deciding to comply, with the request, drew from his pocket, with his piece of to bacco, a ten dollar greenback, which no sooner saw the light than it was eagerly snatched from his grasp by bis dusky com panion, who bolted through an alley close at hand and quickly disappeared. The victim of this specimen of the grab-game immediately put the police upon the alert, but at last accounts the scoundrel had not been captured. The Kate Putnam Troupe It will be seen by an advertisement in our paper this morning- that Katie Putnam's theatrical troupe will give a series of enter tainments in the Opera House, beginning on Monday night nexti AWe have heretofore referred to what the critics have said of her admirable gifts and graces, and we now re produce the following flattering notice from the Richmond Enquirer: "Decidedly the most pleasing and entertaining performance we have witnessed in Richmond for a long time, was given last night at Virginia Hall by that little prodigy, Katie Putnam, and her excellent troupe. ' She is the spright liest, most intensely natural, and perfectly artless little creature that has ever appeared before a Richmond audience. Herf versa tility is wonderful, and her style most fasci nating and graceful. " We assure our theatre-goers that if they miss seeing her 'Little Nell. and,' Marchio ness,' they will never forgive themselves. Mr: Brown, as 'Dick Swiviller,' gave us a fine rendition of that peculiar and fascinat ing character one of the cleverest ever by Dickens. The other performers were an gooo. Tbleves Among: tne Chickens. Mr. James Bagley, residing on Fourth be tween Harnett and Swann streets, seems to be so unfortunate as to have attracted the particular attention of robbers and thieves, judging' from the frequency with which they have paid their respects to him lately. It was only sa few days since that we chron icled the fact that a sneak-thief had entered his store and abstracted his money drawer and its contents, and now we hear that an attempt has been made to deprive him of his stock of poultry. Fortunately, he was too quick for the would-be plunderers in this Instance, as he.heard them -under his house in tne aci ot-uatciung wk- wucKens, when he hastened out and the thief dropped the handful which he had secured and beat a hasty retreat The constant .dread and apprehension which he is under at nigbt,'! however, is not very wholesome to hlsneryt J oaa gygtem. ; &r:to,ithhti.T. m "' ' " ' ' . ?-The large numberof jses n WaterJ rstreet yesterday was nuns, 1 indication of the rapid disappearance 01 tne 'YJfii x ;.V.-. .... - - .

Its pu rity and properties having been thas ascertained. samples or tne article were forwarded to ten thou sand physicians, including all the leading practition ers in the United States, for the parnose of experi ment A circular, requesting a trial of the prepara tion and report of the result, accompanied each spec imen. Four thousand of the most eminent medical men in the Union promptly responded. Their opin ions of the article were unanimously favorable. Such a preparation, they said, had long been wanted by the profession, as no reliance could be nlaced on the ordinary liquors of commerce, all of which were more or less adulterated, and therefore unlit for me dicinal purposes.
