Patriotism of a Colored man. A day or two ago a letter was received at the Treasury Department from a negro man, named Henry Jones, the property of Mr. E. Cannon, of Clarksville, in this State, which is worthy of the highest commendation, and justly entitled to be imitated by those who have been hoarding their treasure during the troubles which at present afflict the country. Henry places at the disposal of the Secretary of the Treasury $465 in gold, which he hopes will be of some service to the Government. In his letter he speaks of "our glorious cause," and declares that the slaves of the South have a deeper interest in the establishment of Southern independence than the white population. He thinks if the Yankees are successful the negroes are destined to the most cruel treatment at their hands.

t. --The Mayor had a large docket to dispose of last Saturday, but most of the cases were too trivial to notice, up, as they were of drunken men, slaves, and worthless free negroes from all sections of the State. The first were fined or held to bail for better behavior; the second were generally whipped and chained, and the third were looked up or ordered to return to their respective counties. There were two felony cases, which were heard and sent on; Christopher Russell and Henry Jones, for stealing boots, shoes, and leather; and Thomas Hayes, a slave, for stealing cloth and clothing. These parties are to be heard at the next term of the Hustings Court, which meets on Monday next. On Saturday night the police arrested, in a house on the gas works lot, forty-four negroes, who had assembled there for a grand frolic.
