THE sorghum crop of 1857 is said to be
failure, when compared with the yield of
former years. From most of the cane
growing regions of the West the reports
upon the condition of the crop are gloomy.
Excepting few favored localities, heavy
rains have prevented the canes from ma
turing in season to escape the frost.

AN EXCELLENT IDEA.-By authority Of o
statute Of 1866 the Corporations Of Washington and
Georgetown and the Levy Court are directed to
provide suitable adjoining rooms and hre-proof
vault for the use Of the Orphans Court and tho
Office of the Register Of Wills. Col. james r.
0Beirne, Register of Wills, has conceived excel
lent idea-that Of fixing up suite Of rooms over
the Circuit Court room, the vacuum being Of the
same area and about fifteen feet high. This matter
has been introduced into the City Councils of this
city and the Levy Court have appointed a commit
tee to take the matter into consideration The
matter will be brought before the Councils Of George
town for their action, and If prompt action is taken
by each of the bodies named, this suite of rooms
can be completed, ready for use, by the middle Of
May next. The office Of the Register of Wills Is a
very important one-one through which the entire
wealth Of this District passes it is estimated once
in every fourteen years. The rents for the rooms
now occupied by the Orphans Court and the Regis,
ter Of Wills cost the citizens of this District about
So, 900 annually. By the arrangement proposed
this amount Of money will DO saved for other pur,
poses and the Orphans Court and Register Of Wilt
will have rooms suitable for ladies to enter and rs
main in few hours, which Is now, We are sorry tc
say, not the case.

CHARGED WITH ASSAULT AND BATTERY AND
MALICIOUS MIsoHEP.-0n Friday evening last,
alteration occurred on board the schooner Gold
finch near Sixth street wharf, which led to tho ar
rest, by the police, Of Captains Martin Raynor and
Lucius b. Hanie, and Mr. Charles T. Barnes q sail
maker.
It appears, from all that we have learned, that
some time since the Goldfnch sank In the Potomac
river, and the owner Capt. L. D. Hanie) engaged
Capt. Martin Raynor to raise the vessel and place
II In good condition. This he did, and claims that
Capt. Hane left the vicinity without settling his
BILL put down at $50. When, finally, the vessel
and owner returned to the District Of Columbia,
Capt. Raynor had the Marshal issue q libel which
was DONE and q colored man named Benjamin
Clomus was put on board to see that the vessel,
tackle, or sails were not removed from within the
Jurisdiction Of the District until granted such priv
ilege. Hanie appeared on the boat, Clomus says,
and threatened that II he did not 90 Of Of the boat
he would take him to Maryland and have him put
In Jail.
clOmus called Capt. Raynor and Mr., Barnes to
aid him in holding the boat, and after they boarded
the vessel, and when they were in the act Of run.
ming II In TO the shore for greater security, Hane
resisted, when, he claims, Capt. Raynor pitched
him overheard into the Potomac. Hanie was res.
cued, and the boat brought ashore, and during the
night the sails were removed, so that they would
be more secure, and In 20 doing the ropes holding
them were cut. This was charged as malicious
mischief
At 10 q. m. yesterday the case was taken before
Justice Boswell, and W. T. Fendall. Esq, appeared
for the prosecution and r. s. Davis, Esq, for the
defendants. Having hoard the evidence Of several
witnesses, Justice Boswell dismissed the charges,
and the accused were set at liberty.
