MAYORS CouRr-Norfolk, Saturday Only one
lodger occupied the watch-house Friday night.
His name did not transpire, but he had been
picked up by the Waterman, while perfectly OBJ
livious from too free use of ardent spirits. He
had not been noisy or troublesome and was dis
charged.
Several warrants were issued by the Executive
but no case was tried. t.h
A tall lady, in black, made her appearance to
complain of what she considered malfeasance by
one of the officers, who had exercised the official
function before the war. His honor regarded the
complaint as trifing but with his usual urbanity
advised her how to proceed in the event that she
desired to prosecute the case and the court ad
journed. ". Z

MAYORS Portsmouth.-On Saturday
morning, His honor, the Mayor of Portsmouth
did not make his appearance up to twelve clock,
probably, because there were cases of sufficient
Importance to justify his presence in his accus-
toned seat. 4
The faces of the police were elongated to an
extent terribly hideous, because of the dry times
localizers were run high and dry, and left the
premises on which the temple of justice is located
in search, with poor prospect of finding them,
of items of some important nature,
such as would interest our readers more than
the bare recital of fisticufs, street corner
rows, meelees, and other affairs that are almost
universally brought about by excessive indul-
gence in alcoholic stimulants. On Sunday, no
court is held, consequently, on Monday morning
the supply of police matter is always decidedly
limited, or at least is not brought to light from
the referred to.

TpR MERCHANTS AND MECHANICS EXCHANGE
We are oratified to learn that the committee who
have in hand the important duty of resuscitating
the Merchants and Mechanics Exchange, are
meeting with great success. Already the MAORI
tv of our business men have responded to the call,
and sufficient number subscribed to organize
which we suppose they will do in few days.
Board of Trade is an institution of much i'm
portance and great influence; and one of the best
evidences of the determination of our merchants
to resuscitate trade with the interior is the pro-
posed organization of this association Every bu-
siness man in the city should join it, and lend his
aid to the development of the resources of the
country accessible to Norfolk; for one of the
principal duties of the organization will be to
procure information as to the productions,
sources and trade of the country and to keep our
merchants well informed on all mercantile and
mechanical interests. The board also will keep a
valuable record of statistics which will be of i'm
mense Importance and incalculable value. And
we venture the assertion that if no other good
was derived from this association, the rec ords
alone would more than compensate for the COST
But there are other considerations which should
influence our business men to join, and not only
to Join, but to enter heartily into the spirit and
aninnus of the institution. CroraWs well known
fable ''in union there is strength" can never be
more clearly verified than by this association
Let our business men meet and take counsel to-
gether frequently let them work together, and
determine together, and their united efforts will
be irresistible. We can, with pride, point to the
grand results of former Board of Trade, and
from those results form some estimate of the i'm
portance of this institution, and congratulate our
people that it is now "hxed fact

Chinquepen season is great carnival for the

sufficiently advanced yet, and the little fellows
were not very successful on Saturday however,

Saturday, and hundreds of them are making

IoE.-For the first time this season there is a
scarcity of ice in our city. The stock had run
down very low, and what was left has, we under
stand, been appropriated by the military for hos
pital purposes. During Saturday and Sunday
the bar-rooms, or at least some of them, were I'M
able to furnish julep or any other beverage re-
curing the presence of ice; the consequence was
that those who INDUCED in fluids were compelled
to take it without the cooling addition of ice.
This want will soon be supplied however. There
will be plenty of ice here in day or two, and
then juleps, sherrya cobbles, &C., will become
fashionable again.
