STREET R. r. Co.'S FAREs,-An ordinance
is pending in the City Council to repeal the
law authorizing the East Cleveland and
Kinsman Street Railroad Companies to
charge seven cents per passenger. The in
creased fare was granted by he Council a
short time ago, because of the greatly in
creased expenses of operating the roads.
The prices of labor, feed and materials
have but slightly declined, yet it is prOpOs-
ed to reduce the fare to the original gold
rate, viz: five cents. .t.e
This seems hardly right, inasmuch as the
companies kept the fares at five cents
through nearly the whole period Of largely
inflated prices. and long. AFTER all other
prices had advanced from one hundred to
two hundred per cent. The STOCKHOLDERS
have never received a dividend. rs
The companies, besides other taxes, pay
two and q half per cent. to the government
upon their gross receipts. The following
amendment to the Internal Revenue Law
was passed by the last Congress
SIC. 10. And DO it further enacted that
whenever, under the provisO to Section 1O3,
the addition to any fares shall amount to a
sum involving the fraction ofOne cent, any
person or company liable TO the duty Of
two and one-half per cent, as in said sec
ton provided shsll be authorized to add 10
such fare one cent in lieu Ofsueh fraction"
By virtue of this amendment the COM
panies lin case the proposed repeating or
dinance shall be passed) will add ono cent
to the original fares, making the fare there
after six cents. Con-.

A CASE AND SCENE IN CoURT.-Judgs FOOte
occupied yesterday with a somewhat
singular case. A man by the name of Levi
j. Chapman, formerly of Newport, married
a woman several years since, and had three
children. But this is not the singular part
of the story. He sailed the lakes, and in
his absence, he claims, his wife neglected
her children, went to balls and parties, and
had a general good time flirting. Things
went by the ears, and he at length fled a
petition for divorce. She fled a counter
petition charging him with personsl cruel
ty and not providing for his children. His
statements proved to have been false, hers
true, and a petition of divorce was decreed
her. But nothing was said as to the chill
dren. One would say, looking at Lewis
face and Uranium, that he didn't care as
much for his progeny as he did tOspitet the
mother of EN-. He appropriated the chill
dren without ceremony, and the evidence
goes to show that he forbade her seeing
them. riuaIly he married again and moved
to Michigan, taking the three OfTsprings.-
She also remarked, but pining for her
children. lately went to Michigan
to see them, and watching her
chance, alt out" with them and
brought her treasures to the house of
an aunt, or grandmother, living OF the
West Side in this city. But Levi wasn't to
be beat any how, and ne posted after
them. Arriving here he procured the issue
Of a writ of ha6eaS corpus, and thus deliver
ed the darlings out of the hands of the
righJrul Uwnor. Lotion is brought for the
recovery of the children. Levi tesnneu
that he "did once jaw his wife for leaving
a pail out in the sun without water in it,"
that he did get mad and kick said dried-up
pail to pieces; that he never tore her dress
off in a passion; that he never did whip
numerically his ten months old child that
he wasn't in the habit of 'swearing at his
wife and splitting in her face" &C., &c. But
the testimony of ga cloud of witnesses" on
the other side, rssps him raw.
C. L. Fish, Esq appears for plaintiff;
and Messrs. H. h. Blackburn, of this city,
and Nevison, of gainesville, for defendant.
The case will be argued g few moments,
commencing at half past eight this morn
ing.

BAD Hay WELTHER.-We imagine tho
farmers have found occasion, the last few
days, to grumble at the weather. The days
have been cloudy, cold and rainy. Farm
ers, as q class, rave a large fund Of patience,
but we nave noticed that a peculiar sensi-
~tiveuess and irritability take possession Of
them if the hours of hay-making time are
not propitious. They can stand bad wealth
or any other time of the year.
