AN EXTENSIVE ROBBEST. BBOUGHT TO LIGHT THE THIEVES ABBESTED AND THE PLUNDER RB OOVEBED.-Early yesterday morning a gentle? man passing the crockery store of Mr. W. L. Webb, on Hasel-street, saw a negro named James Sanders emerge with a large bag filled with crockery. Sandera waa pursued, captured, and taken to the guardhouse. The policeman also made the arrest of John Simons, the por? ter, who was suspected of being an accomplice. The case was heard by the Mayor, who turned the prisoners over to a magistrate, by whom the matter was transferred to Lieutenant Hea drioks, of the detective force, to investigate the robbery. He detailed officers Coates and Gray to assist him, and the trio wont to the house of Simons, who was em? ployed as porter by both Mr. W. L. Webb and Messrs. Strauss & Yance. A trank containing a large quantity of fine china, glass and crock? ery ware was - discovered. Certain articles of dry goods, found on the premises, induced a further search, sud alarse assortment of dry goods, notions, &c, were discovered in the possession of Simons' wife. It appears that a systematic robbery had been progressing for some time. Simons, the porter, having ac? cess io both stores, used Sanders as hts " pigeon " to convey them to his house. Both Mr. Webb and Messrs. Strauss & Yance have lost heavily by these depredations, SB the goods recovered are but a small portion of those taken from time to time. Six pieces of black cloth, one piece gray doth, four pieoes homespun, one piece iOngcloth, one piece Irish linen, one piece linea cambric, besides stockings, soap', tooth-brushes and other arti? cles, were taken from Messrs. Strauss & Yance. Mr. Webb also lost a considerable assortment bf crockery. .The prisoners are both in ens tody, and will no d?rbt receive the reward of their misdeeds.

CHAELESTON AnvEBTisrNo AGENCY.-The mer? chants and business men generally have long felt the want of a properly conducted newspa? per advertising agency in this' city. Efforts haye been made from time to time by parties, samo of them irresponsible, to carry on thia branch of business, but they have, in nearly every case, failed to give satisfaction either to the advertiser or the newspaper publisher, and after a abort existence have ceased operations, very often leaving the publisher mious bis pay and the advertiser's contract unfulfilled. Our enterprising neighbors, Messrs. Walker, Evans Sc Cogswell, have determined to add such an agency to their already extensive busi? ness, and the very mention of such a business house having taken this matter in charge, is sufficient guarantee, both to the advertiser in Charleston, and the newspaper publishers in the*country, that the business will be prompt? ly and correctly managed. The advertiser will feel that he may hereafter safely entrust all his advertising out of the city to this house, know? ing that they will faithfully perform every con? tract they aiiy assume, while, ou the other band,, tjr? country publishers, who have so often Ba?bred heavy, lasses from irresponsible adrertiatrig agents, will feel assured that they are dealing jvUh those who will promptly meet all engagements they may enter into, rj As the'tund?s now ai hand for our Charles? ton-business men to commence their fall ad? vertising, wo would earnestly recommend them tc entrust it entirely to tiie management of MeSAraL>Walkor1',' Evans & Cogswell/believing, as we. do, that they will thereby save not only much trouble-,, correspondence and annoyance, but .alsOj.Baye alargo percentage of the amount expended; in advertising through the advanta? ges and facilities which such an agency pos? sesses. They will then have but one firm to deal with, and that firm one in which they can place entire confidence. We learn also that Messrs. Walker. Evans & Cogswell intend appropriating the second floor of their building in Broad-street to the pur p ses of a Newspaper Readiug Room and Ex? change, where every paper published in this sind the neighboring States, together with many other valuable publications, will be kept regularly on nie for tho inspection of any one who may so desire. This will prove a great advantage to our business community, and wdl soon become ? very popular place of resort. We wish the m abundant success iu their new enterprise. .

Tne Recent Difficulty IM the Mayor's Court-Statt me nt from Col. Brown ' To the Editors of the Daily News : GENTLEMEN-The report contained in your paper of the 26th instant, purporting to state the particulars of an occurrence at the Mayor's Court, in which my name la connected, ia sub? ject to the objection ol being erroneous in ma? terial details. With the intent of correcting these errors, I have prepared the subjoined statement, and request that you will give the same a place in your columns. : It is my wish that this statement be conMd ered as a reply also to a>i article in the Courier, of the 271h, which seemingly has the endorse? ment of the Mayor and chief of Police. That article is equally subject to the objection. Verj respectfully, ALEX. H. BROWN. On Monday evening, the 24th August, a message was left at my residence stating that a man named McCain, a laborer on the planta? tion of Messrs. Co uri right & Jackman, had been committed to the House of Correction, and sentenced by the Mayor to pay a fine of ten dollars or endure an imprisonment of ten days. The offence charged against McCain was "being intoxicated in the streets." Mr. Legare, my son-in-law, who is in charge of the planting interests ol Messrs. Courtright & Jackman, being absent from the city, I, on the morning of the 23th, went to the Guard? house to effect, if I could, the release of Mc? Cain and a modification of the flue. I wont representing Mr. Legare, who was absent, and not as the counsel of McCain. I went lo solicit McCain's release, and not to demand his dis? charge, or in anywise to argue on the lawless? ness of his commitment. I went to conciliatej and not to provoke, the authority that had the matter in charge. In all respects I think the Bubjsined statement hilly establishes that these were exclusively my purposes, and were by me respectfully carried ont. ' 'I attended at the guardhouse on the morn? ing of the 25 th, about 9 o'clock, and when the court was ready to consider my application, 1 said: "I am informed, Mr. Mayor, that yon have cans od a man named McCain to be sent to the House of Correction for being drunk in the streets. I have come to ask you to modify your sentence, ii no circumstances of aggrava? tion marti his case." During this remark the Mayor was engaged in examining the record, I turning over the pages to find tne entry, bat still giving me his attention I think. I con tinned, remarking that "McCain did not lita JU the city, and was only occasionally within it ; that he was a hboring man, in? du s tn o ns, and usually civil and qui.t, and Li?t the fine as it now stood, nominally against him, w^uld infact reach others whom be, the Mayor, could not design it should ef? fect. That the fine m all probability would have to be paid by others who knew the" gener? al harmlessness of McCain. That as he waa seldom 4n the city it was not likely that be would again soon got into trouble, and Ibis was, I behoved, the first time that he had boen brought np." Tbe .Mayor replied somewhat curtly, to this effect, that'ir he, Cain was such a respectable person aa I represented him, ho should have deported himself otherwise, and.considered how others would be affected by his conduct. I replied that McCain was not exactly in the category. he placed him that I only spoke of him as sin industrious la- I boring man, and usually civil and quiet. The Mayor rejoined and said'ho saw do reason for reducing the fine or modifying the1 sentence, when I added, at the same time getting out my pocket book to pay the fine and procure the release, "Perhaps, Mr. Mayor, as a matter of public policy, yon onght to modify your order-the right of fine and commitment in such cases as these being qnestionable. If the penalties are severe, persons efcen approving cf the"wholesome exorcise ot thia power, asl didj'might be induced'to resist1 its use and test tts validity.'1 The Mayor said quickly, "This ia no place for such re marka or auch language." I replied, "I differ with you; this, in my judg? ment, is both the place and the occasion for such remarks," and insisted on hoing heard. The Mayor closed the book before him, and said : "Take that 'man' or 'person' ont." lam not cer? tain which word was used, but am certain that it was either one or the other of these terms. On this beine said, a policeman oame np (o me. and said; "Yon must come ont." I said "I would not," when he seized me by the collar and sooght to pull me ont. I took off my spec? tacles, placed them on the desk near by, and With my left band collared the man and pushed bim from me; he again seized me, and, aided by others, overcame the resistance my lame condition enabled me to interpose, and I was pulled from the room and pushed into an adjoining apartment. 1 remained there ti Q Lieu? tenant Minot informed me that I mght leave the buildine at my pleasure, and handed me my spectacles and nat wh i err had been left in the courtroom. On gome ont I remarked to the Lieutenant that as I desired the speedy re? lease of McCain 1 was ready to pay the fine im? posed, and entered into~the courtroom for that purpose. The Mayor at this time had left, and seeing the policeman who had first been put upon me, I addressed to him some expres? sions which my excitement prompted. Lien tenant Minot reminded me ol the impropriety, and I immediately expressed my regret and eft tbe building. It will bo seen by the foregoing statement, that I did not question the au thon ty, or in anywise alinde to the official tenure Ot the present Mayor, os intimated in your report of the 26th. 1 had no such idea, and felt no special interest in any tuch inquiry. I had determined upon the proper resent? ment, the indignity pat upon me, should have received at my hands, bat the counsel of some friends has diverted me from my purpose, I must ~ontent myself at least for the present, and submit to the disrespect that seems to be eagerly iealt oat to as all, on every occa? sion, by those strolling adventurers, whom these disjointed times have foisted into posi? tions of authority.

SHATTERED CONSTITUTIONS.-OUB constitutions are elastic. They aro not easily shat, tered. In fact, strictly speaking, death alone can shatter them, for they represent tue reserve of vita 1 ity, which enables the enleebled system to react, when tho pressure of disease is removal from it But it is the fashion, when the body ls weak, the cir? culation languid, the nerves tremulonsand the mind depressed, to say that the constitution is ruined, or broken down or shattered.
