In this note we first give a summary that on property of a remainder of a non-locally compact topological group $G$ in a compactification $bG$ makes the remainder and the topological group $G$ all separable and metrizable. If a non-locally compact topological group $G$ has a compactification $bG$ such that the remainder $bG\setminus G$ of $G$ belongs to $\mathcal {P}$, then $G$ and $bG\setminus G$ are separable and metrizable, where $\mathcal {P}$ is a class of spaces which satisfies the following conditions: (1) if $X\in \mathcal {P}$, then every compact subset of the space $X$ is a $G_\delta $-set of $X$; (2) if $X\in \mathcal {P}$ and $X$ is not locally compact, then $X$ is not locally countably compact; (3) if $X\in \mathcal {P}$ and $X$ is a Lindelöf $p$-space, then $X$ is metrizable. Some known conclusions on topological groups and their remainders can be obtained from this conclusion. As a corollary, we have that if a non-locally compact topological group $G$ has a compactification $bG$ such that compact subsets of $bG\setminus G$ are $G_{\delta }$-sets in a uniform way (i.e., $bG\setminus G$ is CSS), then $G$ and $bG\setminus G$ are separable and metrizable spaces. In the last part of this note, we prove that if a non-locally compact topological group $G$ has a compactification $bG$ such that the remainder $bG\setminus G$ has a point-countable weak base and has a dense subset $D$ such that every point of the set $D$ has countable pseudo-character in the remainder $bG\setminus G$ (or the subspace $D$ has countable $\pi $-character), then $G$ and $bG\setminus G$ are both separable and metrizable.
