But somehow it has long been felt by a majority of citizens- without their beine conscious of any par ticular reason for Ihe feeling, perhaps, that the etreet cars would answer verycwelLas a convenience for a very hot or rainy day, but at other times were no of espeqial service td any one not living directly on the iiae-j-rather to be , avoided, indeed and - in no sense to be regarded as a necessity in the daily life of the city. We think we can give a lucid expression to the reason lying back of this state of public freling by simply Tern arking, as Commodore Yiinderbilt;5 think, 'remark ed of some: wild-t road.a while agor" It cannot succeed because, it leads from., no whereto nowhere. . Business men do not use 0 iiecanse It will not carry them from the neigh boi hood of their place of business to others at a distance. Strangers do not u-e it'. because they learn ' that riding over it will not give them so fair a view of any part of the city .as can be had in afew short Wilks. People out .visiting seldom use it, because they can go from, place to place, often, by shorter routes and in less time than " around the block." Church-goers do not use it so much as they would if it was run with reference to the hours of service. Families do not use it for exercise or when it is not convenient to have a carriage, be cause it takes them only through a few familiar streets in the part of the city near their own houses so that they come back scarcely feeling they have been away. , ; Now, we believe that a straight road traversing the city from end to end or from side to side" would draw passengers of every class we have mentioned from-tho parallel and intersecting streets for a long distance. on each side of the road, and growjto be "a public necessity;' and we learn that it is something very like this which Mr. Souther rand and the new Company have now de termined to give us. It is intended, q commence . work early this week in tearing up the track on Seventh street and upper part of Market, and to re lay, the ' same ; (probably., on Fourth street. thought that is not yet determined, from Market to Castle and up Castle to Seventh.

' It appears' that Officer Strode got a glimpse of the fellow the day before and gave chase to him, but failed to effect his capture. On Friday afternoon,- bow ever, be was more lucky, haying discovered Thompson in the woods, in company with two other colored men engaged in playing cards. Thompson ' again 1 attempted ; ! to escape by ; running, but was finally over hauled and captured at a point between Smith's Creek and Union Depot, Jwhep he was taken to jail and locked up until be could be transferred to his bid quarters. 4 Thompson says that his companions in card playing were, Penitentiary "birds and are probably pfjhe party that escaped from the Work House where they were held under contract at the time the prisoner Tom.
