The Richmond Enquirer says,
unfortunately for the Southern
States, the supremacy of certain
party at the North depends on the
odium in which the Southern peo-
pie are there held. Whatever
adds to the bitterness against us,
adds to the Republican strength.
Every injurious allegation has its
value in votes. Under these cir
cumstances we may as we'll make
up our minds to be traduced and
villifed, as business and by sys-
tenn. The demand for tales of hor-
ror will create a market and supply.
The trade is especially diligent
whenever a WEAKNESS of disuuiet
inclines the Northern people to
candid views, and thus imperils
the Radical supremacy"

n I RECORDERS CoURT.-There were a
few cases before the Recorder yester-
day. A branch of the case in which
some parties were fined for creating a
disturbance at Simon Kohn's saloon on
Third Street, was tried by His Honor.
An, appropriate fine, with the usual
amount of costs, was imposed, after
which the accused was released from
custody.
Il There was also case for obstruct-
ing the sidewalk with beer barrels.
The ordinary fine and costs were i'm
posed. Such negligence as that de-
serves, and will, at the hands of the
Recorder, receive the severest penalty
of the law. = K

A CHASE AND CAPTURE.-When
the steamer McCombs arrived at
our city, yesterday, she was boarded
by a lady, who asked the captain
if he could overtake the Charmer,
which was just rounding the point be-
low the city, on her way to Henderson.
She informed the captain that her
husband was on board the Charmer,
with the intention Of running off with
another woman, and she was very
anxious to overtake the delinquents,
The captain of the McCombs pledged
the lady that her wishes should be
gratifed, and at once put out after
the fast disappearing steamer After
sharp run the McCombs got to
Henderson just as the Charmer was
backing out, and at once sig
nailed the steamer to hold on.
Running along side the Charmar,
the truant husband was discovered
seated on the, hurricane roof with his
arm thrown CALAMITY around the fair
but frail creature for whom he had
abandoned the illegal partner of all
his joys and sorrows. " A plank was
thrown out, and the wife, aecompa
MED by the captain Of. the McCombs,
went on board the Charmer, called for
the captain; and all then at once
marched to the roof, and the indig-
nant and outraged wife stood face to
face with her guilty husband and his
param6tiuir, the three in the center of a
large group of passengers, on both
steamers besides many of the citizens
of Henderson. The wife first Of all
gave the absconding gentleman piece
of her mind.aoNext he was informed
by theieaptain of the Charmer that he
could 60 no farther on that boat, and
lastly he was arrested by some officers
from Henderson, his wife remaining
to see the thing through. When, the
McCombs left all the parties were ON
