lf-denial, cannot spare a small amount for the relief of their suffering brethren. Over two thousand persons in this city will be left in absolute want by the withdrawal of the Government rations, and unless something is done for their relief, freezing and starvation are their horrible fate. There are others, not included in this calculation, who are living in the most straitened circumstances, not knowing one day where they are to look the next for bread, and destitute of the common comforts of life. A good many of these sufferers are the widows and orphans of soldiers who have perished on the battle-fields or in hospitals, and not a few have been reduced from competency, and, in some cases, from affluence, to their present miserable condition. We are sure that, reduced in fortune as many of our community are, they will freely give of their little to mitigate such distress, and will avail themselves of this Christmas season to exercise the essential Christian virtue of Charity.

Southern Baptist Convention. --The Board of Foreign Missions, at a meeting held in this city on Wednesday, determined that the next meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention shall be held at Russellville, Ky., on Tuesday, May 22d, 1867. The last meeting of this body was not held in consequence of the condition of the country during the war, and the important questions which are to come up for discussion at its approaching session will draw together a large number of delegates from all the Southern States, and probably representatives from the principal Boards of Missions of the Northern Baptist Churches.

The news from Mexico, via England, warrants a different conclusion.--The London Observer undertakes to say that Napoleon has Napoleon has prevailed upon the Mexican Minister at Paris to proceed to Mexico and endeavor to dissuade Maximilian from abdicating. If the public expect any cue from journalists which of the conflicting stories from Mexico to believe, we have only to say, in the words of the showman, when asked by the lady which was the zebra and which the lady which was the zebra and which the giraffe, "Whichever you please, my dear." The ways of potentates and politicians are unfathomable. We are inclined to suspect, however, that if Napoleon intends to withdraw the French troops, it will be at such a time and in such a manner as will avoid a compromise of the national pride.

satisfied that he would not lend his aid to a fraudulent transaction. The signature of Captain Girard he was not so well acquainted with, but believed it to be his handwriting. Captain Sampson was a Federal officer, and came from near Boston. Witness was also in the Federal army. He did not know G. H. Bates — another witness who attested to the paper — but thought he was a wagonmaster in the Twenty-fourth Army Corps. Mr. D. S. Wooldridge, father of the accused, testified that, on the 13th of July, his son was in town, and he told him that he would pay for a horse which he had bargained for. Went out and heard a conversation between his son and the man who pretended to be the owner. His son afterwards returned to his office, and he gave him a check to pay for the horse. The animal was taken to Chesterfield, where it had been ever since. It had never been there before. He thought the price paid for the horse was high.

ity with him on the morning of the 3d of April. Slept with him every night, and was with him every day until the day of the surrender. During the trying scenes of the war he conducted himself with extraordinary gallantry, and was promoted for his bravery and probity. He returned with Dr. Wooldridge to Manchester, and there they parted. His cream-colored horse was stolen at High Bridge, and afterwards he got a sorrel horse, which he rode back to Manchester, where they arrived about the 16th of April. Benjamin H. Finney, Esq., counsel for the accused, here presented a paper, given to Dr. Wooldridge by certain parties, showing that the transaction was a matter of fair bargain and sale, and that they had a perfect right to part with the horse. Dr. Merritt, of the Eighteenth Mississippi regiment, gave and signed the paper, which was attested to by three witnesses. Captain Sinton testified that he was acquainted with the handwriting of Captain Sampson, one of the witnesses. This was hi
Charge of stealing a horse. --Dr. B. S. Wooldridge, a young man from the country, was arraigned before the Mayor yesterday on the charge of stealing a horse from B. A. Cocke. Isaac N. Cocke testified that the horse belonged to his brother, and he had ridden the animal frequently up to the time of the evacuation. The horse was stolen on the occasion of General Lee's retreat, at the High Bridge, in Prince Edward county. He never saw the horse again until Wednesday last, when he met Dr. Wooldridge coming across Mayo's bridge with the horse, which he immediately identified. Mr. Cocke claimed the horse, and Dr. Wooldridge went to the father of the accused, and he told him to take the case before the Provost Judge, and that he would stick to or back him up. He seemed anxious to have the matter settled. Judge McEntee declined to have anything to do with the case, and it was referred to the Mayor. After this, the warrant was gotten out upon the advice of witness, and Dr. Wooldridge
