The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1868-12-29
Epaogue-Uproarious larfter.

The topic of Carondelet street yesterday was
the new city wstch-not the metropolitan police,
which is no city watch at all-but new time piece
just introduced by Mr.. August Bonn, and which is
sold at eleven and fourteen dollars. These watches
are made in Geneva and are said to be good time.
keepers. The cases are of aluminium, gilded so
as to resemble gold. A great many of them were
bought on Csrondelet street yesterday by the
bulls and bears of that thoroughfsre. We believe
that these watches are got up in Geneva at the
suggestion of Mr.. Bonn himself. who will thus
prove to be public benefactor, by putting the
virtue of punctuality within reach of everybody,
at the low rate of eleven dollars. Nobody will
have an excuse for being behind time after that.

An absorbing city topic nowadays. and one that
is exciting vast deal of interest especially amongst
the "fancy," is the approaching mill to come of
between Rev. Parson Newman, D. D., editor of
the Advocate, o paper devoted to Christianity,
literature and the denounoing Of honest men, and
Mr.. bennett, editor of the Planters Banner, pub
lished in ST. Mary parish, and one of the best pa
pers in the State. IL seems that some time ago
Mr.. bennett knowing that barking dogs like New
man are loath TO bite. published jocose chal'
lenge to Newman to quit venting his spleen
against honest men In words and to take to deeds
to prove his assertion, suggesting at the same
time that he would form one of party in a square
stand up fight If the parson editor would be the
other. Here il how the D. d. of the st. Charles
street chapel answers him:

| We presume, of course, that the affair will take
place at the Hallway House, as that is where the
men Of the ring most do congregste, and as Sun
day is usually the day selected for sports Of this
sort, we suppose that on some Sabbath soon to
come. the ST. Charles street chapel will lack a

On Canal street, yesterday, it was noticeable
how many dresses there were consisting of black
underskirts, with colored overskirts, or of black
over colors. Some Of them were very handsome.
Certainly the present style OF walking dresses
short is very sensible and must be convenient to
the ladies', while the fashion now prevalent, Of
looping up the over-skirt is a very pretty one.

1t speaks well for the peace and quietuie Of
New Orleans that yesterday, between the hours Of
three ar d. ten O'Clock P. NJ. not arrest, as we
are informed, was recorded in the Second District,
and that between six and eleven O'Clock P. NJ.
but three arrests were made in the First District.

CITY ITEMS IN BRIEF.-John Williams
takes oath and sets his Y that David Ander-
son did maliciously, with full intent to
murder, stab him in the back at the corner
of Canal and Baronne streets, for which
Judge Becker remanded the accused to the
Parish Prison until the twenty-irst instant,
without bail.
Archy Hinton feels himself swindled
simply because Robert Daniel failed to dis.
pose of $3.50 as directed. The Daniel must
come to judgment on the eighteenth,
Lewis Murray, of Annuneiation street,
may be classed as bad character if it be
true that he committed larceny and a
battery on two of his peace-loving neigh.
bors. Murray will be brought up standing
on the eighteenth.
Charles Mccormack must answer to a Jury
for his bad conduct in assaulting and
cutting Elizabeth Lynn in brutal man
ner.
Ellen Boyd and Mary Jane Reed, being Of
bad stamp, were disposed of by the first
paying a fine of S. and the Reed to the
Workhouse for six months. Lafayette street,
outside, is a gamer but the Workhouse is
loser.
Adolph Reiss committed several bad acts
toward George Ottmann, Grayier street, for
which he was permitted to pay fine of $40.
David Brown is convicted of carrying two
concealed weapons, namely dirk knife in
his pocket and brick in his hat.
G. G. Blodgett, No. 800 Poydras street,
stands charged by three discharged soldiers
with having obtained from them their GER
tifcates for pay and now refuses to account
for the property. The Blodgett must ex-
plain his conduct before the Recorder
Becker on the seventeenth instant.
The case of Mrs. F. Willis, who is accused
of obtaining property from Mrs. F. Rub
through influences of a singularly spiritual
istic nature, is still unfinished, but Record
er Jackson will take it up again this week.

JUSTICE OF THE PEACE CoURTs.-Now that
we have Republican Legislature it is ex-
pected that there will be a thorough reform
worked in these institutions, which, since
the day Louisiana was purchased from
Napoleon, have been engines of tyranny by
which poor people have been ground down
most shamefully. The laws were made by
landowners and landlords, and of course
they made them to read in their favor.
Up until the close Of the war the Legisla-
lures of this State were either entirely con-
