PIOKING POCKETS .1T Fu:s;;:mAr.s.—An
interaetieg girl of sixteen years was con
vietel the NeW York Court of Special
&Nieto, of pocket-picking at funerals.
It appeared :Tom the testimony of one
witeeee that a death occurred in his
how., and at the funeral the prisoner
came in, pretending to be a mourner,and
her movements around the room led him
to suspect her motives. While all were
engaged in prayer he noticed the prison
er glide to the side of a wiman, who
was deeply atr.2eted. and insert her hind
in tha . woman's pocket. The week pre
vioue a death had occurred in his broth
er aulaw s tam :Iy, and he saw the pris
ouer there, and after the funeral was
over two hundred dollars was found to
have boon stolen from: one of the mourn-
—The Petersburg, Va., Eepra3s says :
A venerable freedman, passing through
Bank street at an early hour the other
mourning, just in :rout of the Nrriter of
this, planted his foot on a five dollar bill,
and there held it, fearing to stoop and
piek it up, least some one should see him
and claim it. We saw the ajriut trick,
but not having owned as much as a five
dollar for many rmonth , , ptssel the old
dart ey u molei,te I. Hour after hour
elapsed, and there the unfortunate finder
stood, Arm as a rock, the enormous bro
gan entirely covering the five-dollar green
back. At no moment could he see the
surging crowd so abate as to afford him
an opportunity to secure his prize with
out a contest with some disputant. Fin
ally darkness came, to the great relief of
the sable gentleman, and he quietly
transferred the V. from its lowly place,
and exalted it to a position iu the folds
of his capacious pocket.
DISAPPOINTED LOVE.—To a man, the
disappointment of love may occasion some
bitter pang; it wounds some feelings of
tenderness; it blasts some prospects of
felicity, but he is an active being, he can
dissipate his thoughts in the whirl of
varied occupations; or, if the scene of
dis4pointtuent be too full'of painful as
,
somations, he can shift his abode at will
and can fly to the uttermost parts of the
earth, and be at rest. But woman is
comparatively a fix:ed, a secluded, and a
meditative life; she is 'more the compan
ion of her own thoughts and feelings; .
and if they were turned to ministers of
sorrow, where shall she look for consola
tion ? , her lot is to be wooed and won;
and if unhappy in her love, her heart is
like some fortress that has been captured
and abandoumd and left desolate.
FIVE DAllcarrEns.—A gentleman had
five daughter;, all of ivhom he brought
up to some respectable avocation in life.
These daughters married,one after anoth
er, with the conront of their father. The
first married a Mr. Poor, the second a
Mr. Little, the third a Mr. Short, the
fourth a Mr. Brown and the fifth a Mr.
Hogg. At the wediing of the latter,
her sisters, with their husbands were
present. After the ceremonies of the
wedding were over, the old gentleman
said to his guests: I have taken great
pains to educate my daughters, that they
might att well their part in life, and
from their advantages and improvements
I fondly hoped that they would do honor
to the family; and now I find that all my
pains have turned to nothing but a poor,
short,brown,hogg.—
•,LIES LOST By TII;. REBELLION.-
The Department computes the number
