Pickpockets.

--The thieves seem to be making a good thing out of Mr. Douglas' tour through the South, and they follow closely in his wake. The losses in Memphis alone amount to the snug little sum of between two and three thousand dollars. One gentleman, a stranger in the city, was relieved of $1,300 and another of $1,000, and others of sums varying from five to five hundred dollars.
