BEFORE J JUSTICE EMERY.-The case
of difficulty between boarding house
keeper and her boarders, of which
mention was made yesterday was
qmieably adjusted, the baggage being
restored aud the charge Of assault aud
battery being withdrawn. The land
lady denies having treated her board
err rudeIy or insultingly, or of using
any violence towards her. She, very
naturally, desired to secure payment
of the amount due her. We cheer
fully give her the benefit of her de-
NAL. u5-. FrE s.zev
The Justice was tormented with a
duck. case and a pig case during. the
day, but prevailed on the party max
ing complaint iDgthe latter case to let
the matter rest.
4 negro woman complained that a
negro man had wrung the neck of. one
of her ducks and seriously dam
aged another, and demanded justice.
A warrant was issued. but the parties
had not appeared up to late hour
last evening. The truth is, that the
habit the negro population is. falling
into of running to the Justices Courts
with every trifing difficulty that oc-
ours between neighbors, should be
frowned down and discouraged. Most
of the cases in which they figure are
merely the result of malice
RECORDERS CoURT-Our venera-
bic friend, Recorder Nelson, appear
ed again behind the bar of justice, in
the Recorders Office, and dispensed
that article with his usual impartial
ty and even handedness
The first subject was Frank Hughes,
who was found in state of intoxica-
ton, in Henry Huf's back yard He
offered as an excuse that he was in
search of a washer-woman. Henry
doubted the proposition, and Frank,
to enforce the declaration, waded
into Huf, damaging his profile to
some extent. He was arrested and
required to answer the charges of be-
ing drunk and of assault and battery
On the first he was fined 81 with
81 so costs. and on the latter, 81 with
50 % costs. Not having the ready"
Immediately comeatable, he was sent
over to Captain Miller's Rancho.
Next came regiment of Africans,
with case of assault and bat cry, in
which. man and woman were the
parties litigant. The man was fined
50 with So so costs. A woman was
charged with having used obscene
and abusive language towards anoth-
er; but the testimony showing that
the accusing witness had been the
worse of the two. the case was dis
missed, with extra judicial opinion
that both deserved to be sent to Jail.
TRANSFERRED To- GIBSON COUNTY.
The case of Silas Bell u.s. William
Hedges, that was set for trial before
Judge Baker, of Vinceuues, at Leav-
enworth, during this week, did not
come off, on account of the absence
of material witnesses. By agreement
of counsel the case was transferred to
the Gibson County Circuit Court, and
will be tried at the next term.
The members of the bar returned
on Wednesday by the Tarascon, to
Rockport, and thence by the overland
route to this city.

No RACE.-A race had been pro
jected to come off on the Longworth
Track, yesterday, between Posey's
bay mare of Henderson County, Ken
lucky, and Gentry and Hicks bay
mare of New Harmony; single dash
of one mile, for 500 a side-$2OO
forfeit A considerable crowd COL
lected On the ground, but the New
Harmony mare was withdrawn. her
owners paying the forfeit. Another
race was made up, and came off in
order that the crowd might have some
fun for their trouble of going out.
INTERESTING TO CONTRACTORS
1t will be seen by reference to our
advertising columns, that the Board
of School Trustees call for proposals
for building a new High School
house. We believe it is designed to
commence the work as early next
Spring as possible. and have it ready
for occupancy at the opening of the
next school year in September.
THE FEsTIvAL.-The Festival at
Mozart Hall was well attended aga n
last night, but the tax upon the phys
ical endurance of the ladies in attend
ance is becoming manifest, some of
them having been on duty day and
night since the Festival commenced.
The liberality of the people seems to
be undiminished. The receipts con
tinue large. The attendance at the
Lunch yesterday morning was fair,
but not so large as previously. From
ten to two to-day another lunch will
be set, and, as this is the last oppor-
tunity, we expect and recommend
that everybody will go. Remember, it
is for the benefit of the poor.
Tonight will be presented a series
of beautiful tableaux, commencing at
precisely Z o'clock The drawings in
the gift distributions will also take
place, and ticket holders are requested
to be present.
