POLICE CouRT.-Business at the Police Court,
for some days past, has been remarkably dull,
and, although the number Of cases has been
generally quite as large as usual, those which
seemed to be worthy of notice have been few
and far between. Yesterday Judge Lowe dis
posed of twenty-one cases, but their lack OF
interest would hardly entitle them to q single
paragraph. We mention the following for
reasons that are apparent.
The eight men, who, as our readers doubt
less remember, were arrested . day or two ago
upon suspicion OF having been connected with
O gang OF thieves in Cleveland, were disoharg-
ed, no evidence Of their guilt having been
made manifest.
Andrew Sarver, who, few months ago,
gained o somewhat unenviable notoriety by
shooting Theodore Petit, in little difficulty
on Sycamore-street, near Third, visited a
bagnio on Home-street, night before last, and
abused some of the inmates to such an extent
that they were induced to seek protection at
the hands of the law. He was arrested upon
two separate charges, and, in default of bail,
committed to jail to await final examination
before Judge Lowe on Friday next.
The two confidence men, William Davis
and John @. Watson, arrested day before yes
terday, while in On attempt to swindle trav-
eler whom they happened to meet on the
levee, were sent to the City Prison for term
Of twenty days each, for vsgrancy.
A woman named Ann Baker, nearly sixty
years of age, residing at the corner Of Poplar
and Linn-streets, was yesterday sent to the
City Prison for ten days, upon charge Of
disorderly conduct. ...., r

rington, residing on Kossuth-street, a short
distance from Court, was very seriously burnt
day before yesterday, by pulling over @ ket-
tie of boiling water, during temporary alb.
sence of her mother. The child climbed
upon stool, in the pursuit Of material to sat-
isfy her curiosity, and at the time of the ac-
cidsnt was evidently attempting to discover
the contents of the vessel. Her injuries con-
sist Of broken arm received by the fall from
the stool, and severe confusion of tho head,
together with the burns received from the
heated liquid, which extend from her head +,
literally, to her feet. The child is still suf-
fering the intensest pain, and no one but her
mother entertains the slightest hope of her
recovery.

ACCIDENT TO THE DRIVER OF AN EXPRESS
WAGoN-A horse attached to an express
wagon ran away, up Smith street, yesterday
afternoon, at speed which would have
startled "Flora Tsmple;" but its career was
brought suddenly to an end at the corner Of
Longworth- -street, by coming in contact with
treo. The driver, who had kept his seat
until this instant, was thrown out upon the
pavement and quite seriously injured. His
left shoulder was dislocated and his collar
bone broken, while confusion which no re-.
ceived upon the head it is feared will amount
to fracture Of the skull. We we're unable to
learn his name or residence, but his wounds
were carefully attended to by some persons
who reside in the neighborhood where the
accident occurred. ..,'r
