Brsdhjag gp NsSt-A free negro named
John Moore, was arraigned before the Mayor
yesterday on q charge Of retailing ardent spir-
its without a license. II was proved that
Moore kept grogaery in the rear Of The Ex-
change, where gambling was carried and
unlawful assemblies were permitted; in con-
sideration eff which the Mayor decreed SEN
teace of thirty nine iashes, and required Sc
curity for future good behavior. Among other
instruments found in Moore's house by the
officers was q long knife, made OF . rasp and
encased in n leather sheath. The proceedings
in the matter will doubtless break up one OF
the vile places in Exchange alley, bat here are
"a few more left'--probably worse than this
II reports are true, there is nc field in the city
where moral reformers might reap so abun-
daut harvest, unless, indeed, the occupants
are beyond the reach of such influences. in
which case, legal measures could perhaps be
adopted eTac Eually.
Smith, Il negro employed Mt the Exchange
was found in Moores house, without pas :.
but succeeded in making his escape from the
watchmen. Yesterday morning, however. he
was oserliauled and punished. Joe, the pro-
perty Of Hector Davis, was also found there,
and handed over to his master on certain con-
dltions.

that ali they were fiji for was to perform such

without waiting for explanations, the watch
