CITY INTELLIGENCE.

TTtslera Mail Agent. We understand that
Mr.. James S. Watt, Of Cumberland, has been
appointed mail agent between that place and
this city, vice Mr.. Wm. Neil, removed. We
can truly say, from our own personal know
ledge, that a more efficient, honest, polite and
gentlemlnly officer than Mr.. NELL, cannot be
found, and we deeply regret that his removal
has taken place. His many acts of attention
in behalf of the press Of this city, in communi-
eating matters ofpublic interest, have laid them
under deep obligations to him. We trust his
successor may prove as efficient and popular
Distinguished ,A,rivaIs. Mr.. Pageot, the
French Minister, and suite, and M. Mason
Attorney General of the U. States, arrived in
this city on Tuesday evening, and took rooms
at the Exchange Hotel,
Diciding The City into Yards. We learn that
the Commissioners who had the duty in charge
of dividing the city Of Baltimore into twenty
wards, in accordance with a recent act Of the
Legislature, have completed their task. The
specifications, sc. will be ready for publication
in day or two.
Furious Drifting. William Barringer and
Dennis MEG loan were arrested late on Tues
day evening by officers Barnard and Merchant,
on a charge of driving at furious rate through
the public streets. They were taken before
Justice Wright, and made to pay fine of s.
each, and costs. Dear sport that!
Firemen's Visit to Lancaster The Columbian
Fire Company of this city left in the 9 o'csck
train of cars yesterday morning, on a visit to
Lancaster, Pa. They numbered about seventy
members, aud were accompanied by an excel
lent band of music.
Baltimore City Court. Very little was done
in this Court yesterday. George Coming, in
dicted for felony, was found guilty, and sen,
fenced to the Penitentiary for three years
Alex. DeMerritt, indicted for obtaining goods
under false pfetenses, was declared not guilty.
4. Yates Walsh, ESQ, for the defence. The
Court adjourned till ten O'Clock on Saturday
morning.
Lukin's Washing Machine. We stepped into
the establishment of Mr.. Z. Lukns, No. IA
Front-st. on Monday last, and while there, had
the pleasure Of witnessing an exhibition Of his
Patent Family Washing Machine, which is GER
talnly one Of the most labor saving inventions
OF the age. No housekeeper should be with
out one. The washing is done by the action
and reaction of the water (by means of pres
sure) In connection with the soap, without any
rubbing whatever, consequently the clothes are
not only uninjur by the operation, but as Mr..
Lukins assures US, made to last t,oice as long as
when washed by hands. The exhibitions take
place every Monday morning and Friday after
noon, and we advise all who are creduous on
the subject to pay visit to he establishment
when they will be satisfied e its great utility.
