fig In the Criminal Court yesterday,
William ]. Shaw, youth Of about sixteen
years, was placed upon trial for an assault
with intent to kill boy named Moore. The
affair occurred in Georgetown, and it seems
to have arisen in drunken fracas between
two rival parties, bearing not very elegant
names, who have occasioned much annoy
ance to the peace of our sister city. Much
interest was manifested in the case, and
the Courthouse was crowded with youths of
the acquaintance of both parties. Messrs.
Waters and Darlington are counsel for the
accused.
James Bowie, free negro, was then placed
upon trial for an assault and battery upon
John Lee, free negro, with intent to kill.
Mr. Morgan is counsel for the prisoner.
