arrest judgment was then made, upon
which action will be taken this morning.
Sentence was passed upon Mastick.

ness. He was sent to the county Jail thirty
days and fined $500.
Carver, who was arrested on the same
charge, plead guilty, and was fined s25,
and let go.
The important and more notorious case
of Asher Warner came before the Court,
and was speedily disposed of. The case is
too well known to justify recapitulation.
Warner was sentenced to three years.
term in the Ohio Penitentiary and q fine
of $500.
The scene in the Court room, at the time
the sentence was given, and afterwards,
was very melancholy and sad one
Warmers father, brother, wife and daugh-
ter were present, and when the sentence
fell like the blade of a guillotine, Warner
sank and nearly tainted, and his relatives
wept and sobbed aloud.
He will probably not be sent to Colum-

CLEVELAND MERCANTILE CoLLEGE.-As the
season for evening study approa hes, in
dustrious boys and girls should be making
preparations to attend recitations at the
Mercantile College, corner of Superior and
Seneca streets, fourth floor, Northrop and
Harrington's Block. How much more
profitable that you spend your winter eve
nings at this Institution, learning a good
business hand writing or acquiring a knowl-
edge of bookkeeping or telegraphing,
either or all of which are accomplish
ments well worthy your best efforts to pos
sess, than that the time be spent with mere
idle sport, which can be but pastime, at
best. Nor are the youth of the city. only,
interested. Clerks, artisans, mariners and
business men can well afford the time and
money necessary to prepare them for a
better discharge of their respective duties.
The evening sessions open on Monday, De-
tober 3Ist, at O'Clock P NJ.

Visit of British Officers to Our Army
Before Richmond.

From the Washington Chronicle, Nov. 81
Two British officers, who served with high
distinction in the Crimean war, one OF them
now commanding regiment at Quebec, nav
Ing lately returned from q visit to our armies
before Richmond, have given most satiS'ae
tory reports of their Observations. Ihey
speak Of their visst to our armies as the most 20
Instructive in their military experience; me
works Of defense aud attack are regarded rs
constructions Of the highest science, and are
equal to my In the world. These officers
were astonished at the achievements OF such
vast and perfect military organizations BY
people who, four years ago, knew nothing OF
war. The n.orak Of tbs army, as COMPARED
with that Of European. armies, was matter
Of admiration. In those armies, when IN the
field, tue camp followers are more numerous oI
than soldiers, md drunkenness among the
