informed Of what he had been doing the
day before, said he didn't remember any,
thing about it. We understand he has just
finished serving his time in the penitentiary,

The discipline of that house of correction
seems to have had but little effect in reform
ing him. His two accomplices were, phys
ically, the worse for wear and tear. Their
visual organs were in such condition, they
could not look any one in the face. His
Honor fined all three of them, and we pre-
sumo they are working out their fine by ly-
ing in jail at the citys expense.

BRIBERY IN ENGLISH ELECTIoNs.-Inves-

system of bribery in many of the boroughs

sides, was some 5000, 900. In smaller con-

Pleas Court charged with stealing money.

derstand that the whole family have been
reared to a course of crime, some one of them
being brought before almost every session Of
the Court for some o(fense. The little fellow
seemed hardly conscious of the position he
was in. He denied the charge of stealing
money. Counsel was furnished him by the

By The contractor for bordering Main
street began his work yesterday by tearing
up the paving Ia front eff the Washington
House, preliminary to laying the boulders.
We suppose he will raise the centre of the
street, and so arrange the cutters that the
surface drainage will be much superior to
what it has been. 1t will require some care
to prevent the boulders from starting to
hunt the gravel that was placed on the street
a few years ago, but which has long since
disappeared.

made considerable havoc on Division street.
1t has been washing away, little by little,
until there is barely space sufficient to ad-
nit of a wagons passing from Seventh to
Eighth without upsetting. Large quantities
of brick are already deposited on the street,
and we presume but a short time will elapse
until the culvert is finished to Eighth street.
This will furnish an outlet to the water and
effectually stop the caving in of the street.

ministry, and suspended from the privileges
of the church, by the Presbytery of St.

conduct. Mr.. Tempieton, it will be remem-
bered, was once member of the Synod of
Kentucky.
