DIsoRDERLY.
James A. Barker was arraigned on a
charge of creating tumult and disorder.
1t appeared that on the Goth inst. an
alarm of fire was given, and as the
"Guards" reel was coming up Main
street, Barker stopped them and en-
deayored to ssfool them" as to the loca-
ton of the fire. He then undertook to
take hold of the :eel for the purpose OF
helping "run the machine" when he
was told by man in authority to retire,
which he failed to do. He was then
forced away. Barker was fined five dol
LIARS and costs, With an assurance from
the Judge that if he again appeared in
the Court for disorderly conduct he
would not get off as easy as he did on
this occasion. 49,.
On the charge of Mrs. Hausman,
who lives "behind the HILL" three
young men, named John Rhodes, Mar
tin Neider, and White Powell, were ar
raigned before the Court, charged with
throwing stones at the dwelling of the
complainant. The charges, as far as
understood, not being substantiated,
the case was dismissed at the cost of the
complainant.
II strikes us that in this case there
was an injustice done somewhere. This
Hausman woman, and her husband are
Germans, and it was with great diff
ficulty that they were understood, if
they were understood at all Now, in
such cases, why not have an interpre-
teri There is no doubt but that stones
were thrown at this woman's house,
and we understood her to say that she
was "struck once" Very WELL why
were these young men arraigned on
her complaint if there was not the
shadow of evidence to substantiate the
cbargesf If the case would bedismissed
or if she had no evidence TO suostan-
tiate her charges-she must pay the
costs. Now this woman, Mrs. Hausman,
is poor woman, and is not able to pay
the costs; and there is no doubt but
that she has been grossly misused by
some men who have been stoning her
house. We think had that woman had
an interpreter some additional facts
would have been elected The three
young men who were arraigned may
have been, and probably were, innocent,
but the case did not receive sqfficient
investigation owing to the inipossibility
Of understanding the language of the
witness, difficulty that might have
been avoided If any of the attaches Of the
court spoke German, or ifan interpreter
had been employed. 4 D. 81

THE Courier is thankful forcrumbs.
1t is comforting the Democracy with
the hope that certain members Of the
Republican party hereabouts are
threatening to go over to the enemy.
All such stories are only published to
strengthen the dropping spirits Of the
forlorn party. There is no danger of
any true or influential Republican at
this late day, abandoning the Union
ranks to join himself with the mis-
cradle faction of Copperheadism.

AMERICAN TRAVELLERS IN EUROPE.
Hon.;J. G. BLAINE, who is making the
tour of Europe, thinks the estimates
often made that there are $4,000 to
10000 Americans travelling in Europe
at this time extremely Wild. He has
made a careful estimate from the most
reliable data at his command. and is
satisfied that to-day there are not IF
teen thousand Americans in all Eu-
rope, from Queenstown to CONSTANT
lnople, from Madrid to Moscow. 9th
ers who have better facilities for
judging, put the number as low as ten
thousand. The amount of gold. there
FORE which is. taken out of the coun-
try by tourists is far less, than, has
usually been estimated.
