FROM MANCHESTER.
From our Reporter in that Town.

BOARD or TRUsTEEs.-This body met at
the Town Hall on Wednesday night. Pre-
sent: All the members. 1t is the duty Of
the secretary to furnish the reporter with
an official copy of the proceedings. This
has not been done, and we are compelled
to give only sketch from memory, as we
took no report and depended on the OFF,
cial copy. The committee to whom was
referred the claim of A. Montgomery for
liquor destroyed on the Sd of April, 1865,
by order of the Town Trustees, reported
to allow him sixty dollars. An amend
ment increasing it to eighty dollars was
lost.
The Committee on Public Improvements
reported that the Town Hall had been re-
paired under their direction, and that the
Job, though uncompleted, was far enough
advanced for the committee to have an
ocular demonstration of its utility. Scve-
raj bills were referred to the Committee
on Finance.
The Committee on Ways and Means,
through Mr.. Webb, chairman, reported a
tax bill for the ensuing year, which in
crsases the poll tax and the tax on real
estate, and puts tax upon all manufactu-
fers, merchants, &C., doing business in
town.
The FEsTIvAL.-The ladies' festival will
close tonight. 1t has been, despite the
unfavorable weather, very literally patron
lied, and may be called decided success.
We advise all who have not attended not
to fail to do 50, as they viii scarcely miss
the amount expended, and II they do they
will have the pleasing consolation Of know
ing that it has been spent in righteous
cause.
AT the request of the ladies' committee
of the Methodist festival, Thomas blount
was appointed to take charge q tnsis
effects during the continuance o. sno Iss :
A full and official report Of the psVcssN'
ings win appear on Monday

AFFECTING SCENE IN CoURT.-What vo-
lumes an attendant upon criminal court
might write from the scenes which daily
PASS there. What must strike an observer
above everything else that he sees there
is the greatness of woman's heart and the
depth of her love, even midst scenes jof
crime and wickedness. The mother mhy
often be seen leaning over the prisoneks
box whispering kind words into the ear OF
son who, by evil deeds, has almost drag
ged her to the grave; the sister may be
seen weeping at her brothers side when
he has almost broken her heart; and the
wife often caresses seedy-looking hus-
band while her person shows marks of his
brutality. We have heard the wife give
evidence of the cruelty Of her husband,
and in moment afterwards weep and
plead for him when he was about to be
sent to Jail.
Yesterday morning there was brought
before the Mayor woman charged with
being drunk and abusing man named
Gerding. The man expressed . wish to
get her away from his house. The mans
daughter--a little girl of about fifteen

at is said that the indictment under
which jeff. Davis will be tried has been
drawn to meet the provisions Of the act TO
punish treason, passed July II, 1851, tho
second section Of which provides that any
person who shall hereafter set on foot, Or
engage in any rebellion against the authc-
rity Of the United States, shall be impri:
soncd not exceeding ten years, or be lined
not exceeding $4,000 and the liberation o.
all his slaves "a tremendous method Of
making treason odious. 1t is also said that
Justice Field, Of the Supreme Court, has
expressed the opinion thst this section
repeats all previous provisions Of the Nv
for the punishment Of treason. Johnsons
plan for the trial of JEFF. is regarded here
