True Bills Found. James Kelley, indicted
for the murder of Mary Il. Elrles, on the morn
ing of the 24th Of September, was arragned in
the City Court yesterday morning. The youth
Kelley, is quite good looking lad of about Is
years Of age, but is one Of the boldest offenders
we have seen placed in the bar for long
time. He plead not guilty to the indictment
in clear, bold voice, and seemed more uncon.
cerned than any pe@on in the Court House.
His trial was postponed until Monday next.
The young man John Evans, who stabbed
another youth, named Charles Barker, on the
4th Of July last, has also had a true bill found
against him, for an assault with intent to kill
Barker still lies in a very precarious situation
in the Washington Hospital, from the effects
of the wound. VI trial will also take place
during the term.

The Campaign. Both the democrats aud
wings, are holding ward meetings nightly, Or
ganizing and preparing for the election, which
comes off next Wednesday. The meetings of
both parties have been quite large, considering
the apparent apathy among the great majority
of politicians, and quite spirited contest may
be anticipated on the days of the election. The .
Judges Of election we published yesterday, and
as soon as we can ascertain the places desgna-
ted by the Judges in the different wards, for
the holding of the polls, we will lay before our
readers a correct list.
Overheard. A drunken loafer, named Wa
ters, tumbled into Spears wharf, yesterday
and but for the exertions of colored .
drayman, would have been drowned. This
way some fellows have, of upsettng their walk
ing stand casks into such large quantities of
water, is very dangerous business.
