A Wanderer.

--Yesterday morning, a man calling himself John McAllister, was arraigned before the Mayor to answer the charge of being drunk and asleep in the First Market. When found by the watchmen, he was coiled up on a pile of shavings, his hide filled with bad whiskey, and his eyes resembling burnt holes in a blanket. Mac said he was from Petersburg, and had been in the city but a few hours. In default of security, he was sent to prison.
