AN INJURED ROMAN. Mow NE FELL AMONG THIEVES, Tothosoof our readers who remember tho Ppecutiarly painful misadventure with no sedan chair which bofell Mr. Winklo of tho Pickwick Club one unhappy night, tho mlsfortones of an anguat Roman, Aurelio Arcigoni by name, who recently arrived in this ctty, sud who is omployed in Gontilo’s photographic cxtablishmont, will prove interesting. ‘I'in child of sunny Italy ar- rived in Chicago but a few weeks ago, ant, consequently, had not hat timo to loarn of tho darkwomne wayo that too many of its inhabitants practice upon tho uninitiated for- eignor, 80 when o now aequaintanco directed him to No, 94 Sonth Clinton stroot aan desira- blo house at which to sojourn until better know!- edge of tho city might induce him to move olae- whore, io made the placo his home, paid his Sirrt week's board in advanco, and awaited do- yelopmonts. ‘Chey arrived sumewhat sooucr and in difforent guise than ho hat oxpected, Without alluding to Mihuinoceant dotalla, siflico it to way that Tuesday Aurelio went to bed nnd droamod ull night Jong of tho beautiful bine skics of his native land, and the no Jean beautiful greentacks of the conntry of hia adoption, Dream joys are of all joys tlio most evanescent, and at about 6 o'clock in tho morning Aurelio woke, yawned, rubned his eyes. and couclided to jet up, take broak- fast, and go off to work. Leaping gaily from hia bed, he want to the chair wheroon before retir- ing he had placed, neatly folded, tho bifureated garment which his nocestors dignified by the namo of brace. Thoy wero not thero. Ifo ooked to the head of tho bed where ho had hung his vest, and to tho foot of tho bed where ho had hung his coat, but both bed-posts wero empty. Ifia bat and bocts wero mixaing too, and, in fact, the only garment remaining was the shirt which ho lad retained on gaing to hed. At first blush it sooned to him that somebody had played a practical Joko upon him, but, whon he fngen to consider that dua left panta pocket contained all lua wealth, connisting of 203, the suspicion arose that ho had been robbed. Ho immediately eummoned his landlady, and held an animated parley with her through the yory I open space which bis servo of Propriety permitted him to leavo botween tho door and the wall. Of course, the Iaudlady was. astonished and much grisved at tho occurrence, but to help hor boarder in his misfortune was outirely out of her power. Left alone, the Mo- man was forced to 8 full sppreciation of his mis- erable condition, Tobbed of all he had in the world but ashirt, sud burning for vengeance, yothis stato waa such that to movo from his room was impossible, For three mortal hours ho ondured tho agony of hia position, but at layt m Good Samaritan offerad to tako a letter from him to his employer, wlio, on hearing of his assistant’s plight, immediatoly proceeded to bis relief with a cuange of raiment, which, though a couple of inches sliort oach way, still enabled Aurelio to go to lus work and oarn ouough money to bny another suit.

A few days ago ho had occasion tochango a largo bill in te City ‘Treasurer's oflice. As he was coming out anteepy Teuton from across tho Rhino inauired of him whero ho got so mutch money.

Furthermore tho Law Dopattmont was roqueeted to prepare fuch ameudmonts, In accoidanco with these Tequesta Judge Dickey prepared tho bill, and Mr, Hayos isof tho opinion that ib is all right. At ‘all oyents he considers that he has done hie duty in applying to tho Law Departmont to draft proper anicndinents to the oxiating laws. If the laws aro imperfect ho ix opposed to jeopardizing the interests of the city by failing to apply for prop- oramendments, If thoroare any valid objec- tions to the laws os they sto, it is a reason that thoy should bo amended. Fonionaliy, he claims to havo no objection to any amendment however radical, or even tho substitution of an entirely now charter, if it be cortaln that no compheation or danger to the city’s important intoroaty would bo the reeult. ‘ho authorities cannot wait for popular votes and a roorganiza- tion of a city before collecting tha taxes, They cannot tnke any chances on futuro contingencies, und, if tho Inve of tho Stato can be amended now to facilitate the collection of tnxos, Lo hopes it svill bo dono at onca; and furthormore ho earoostly hopes that all questions of puroly political character will bo left entirely to tho cueral Assembly aud to tho pooplo of the city. —pa LOCAL LETTERS, THY BOUNTY LAW, To the fiditor of The Chicago Tribune Cutcaco, March 5.—As au old soldier whom tho Bounty bill (which bas just boon Irillod by the Senate) would have given what was justly lis due, I would like to make a simplo statement of my caso, which is that of hundreds of othora, On tho day that Fort Sumter feil, I enlixted a9 a private in the Stato of Now York for two years, or, ag wo then supposed, for the War.

Spear thought his partner, Gobel, would sell his half interest for $25,000, and he himself was willing to sacri- fico his own portion for a like awount. Jones, the complainant, thought the prico was reasonsble, an stated that, if the mattor was woll managed, it conld be sold for more than $65,000. Upon this, Spear Proposed that if Jones, Hull, and Matheney would heip him to ell the mine for &50,000 ho would divide with thom tho oxcesa recoived over the price asked.. Of courgo nobody dissented, and Spear immedistely started for Colorado to get & powor of attoruoy from his partner to sell, Attera fow days ho returucd with tho intetli- Genco that Gove! would not sell for less than 240,000.

How. ever, thoy now determined to be just, aud ac- cordingly offered complainant $1,250 ay his share of the excess over $59,000, But Jones was eus- picions, and rofiusod to give any receipt in full until Spear offered to make tho shure 61,600, shen ho submitted and recolved that amount, Ho did not, however, give a receipt in full, and, atill ungatiatied, took & trip to Erio, whore ho learned tho true state of affairs, and now brings suit to compel his confreres to pollub up their knowlodgo of arithmetic, and seo if 31,250 is one-fourth of $170,000, the Iattor being the excosy received over the amount domandod.
