CAPTURED AT LAST.-Tuesday night, officer
Miller, OF the Second Ward, captured the noto-
rlOus negro, Bill Shaw, and locked him IN at
poIlce headquarters, preparatory to delivering
blm TO the u. =. Marshal. Shaw was arrested
some months ago by detectives Kelly and Big
ley. for robblng a huckster in the Northern
Market OF SlOO, was tried and con victed in the
Criminal Court, and when on his way from the
jail 10 the court to receive his sentence he
escaped from the guards. About ten DAYS ago
Oncer Miller got on his trail. and tracked him
10 Murder Bay, and being anxious to secure
nm, went alone among the desperadoes who
Shaw associates with. The result was q des-
perate fight, and gang of colored soldiers
aided Shaw in escaping from the officers, by
severely InJuring Miller's arm. Since then
Miller has been constantly on the lookout for
him, and Tuesday night got information that he
was working his old game of robbery
in the Center Market House. Miller went
after him, and discovered him in the dark
moving about with a cOmrade Miller got In
'front.' OF him, and when near enough, knocked
MN down with billy. He was quickly on
Ter, at the same time drawing a razor. Miller
struck at Shaw's partner, whe ran. Miller
then struck at Shaw with his billy, breaking
the razor in his hand. ana again kno eked him
down and seized HIM. Shaw shed his coat
leaving it in Miilers hands, and started torun,
Miller raised the cry Of stop thiefi' and
SHAW fell down in the street, and was can
tured by two citizens, who turned him over TO
officer Dunn, of the Third Ward, who took
him 10 the Central GuardhouSe. Officer Mil
Ter made application to Sergeant Skippon,
who turned the prisoner over to him, and sent
omcer Dunn 10 accompany Miller and Shaw
TO police headquarters, where Shaw was
lroned and kept till yesterday. Superinten-
dent Richards delivered him to the U. ). Mar

| report: That the Chancellor has re-
fused to dissolve the injunction. and has
given such conclusive reasons for his re
fusal as to satisfy noe that If you desire
to have your streets paved in accordance
with the S22 section Title III of the char
ter, some amendment of your ordinances
in relation to paving streets, is necessa-
nv. The ordinances now in force apply
only to such cases as may be presented
for your action, upon the petition of two
thirds Of the property holders, fronting
on the streets proposed to be paved, and
there is no ordinance which authorizes
the construction Of a pavement, under
the grant Of power contained in the s22,
Title 8, of the charter. Upon the sug-
gestion thrown out, that if the city au-
thorities still desired to pave any of the
streets with the Nicholson pavement, a
new ordinance must be passed, have
felt it my duty to call your attention to
the subject without delay"

police, surrounded Mccarthy s saloon, at
No. 10 Jefferson street, and captured
twenty persons, who were taken to the
stationhouse and required to put up for
feits, which they did with the exception
of three poor devils who were without
funds, and consequently had to pass the
night in Jail. At the same time Captain
Garrett with party entered the famous
Senate establishment, the door
being open, and found nine
persons there, the game having
been closed few minutes previous.
They we're taken to the station-house,
and all put up forfeits, the proprietors
generously paying for those who had no
money. This morning the proprietors
were fined fifty dollars each, and the
others twenty five, with three exceptions,
one case being continued, and two dis
charged, one of the parties being a we'll
known saloon keeper, whose plea was
that his business required him to 90 in
the Senate very often. The police took
the faro boxes, cards, cases and other
tools, which they have at headquarters.
