MAYORS Couar-TuEsDAY.-Isa,

MAYORS COURT TUEsDA Y.- Isaac
Goode and William Il. Bibb (negroes),
charged with breaking into the store OF
J Harveys & Williams and taking therefrom
thirteen boxes Of tobacco valued at $500,
two boxes of cheese valued at $40, and
two pieces of bacon valued at 81. The
burglary was committed on Monday night.
Policeman Smither testified that at
about quarter before IL o'clock on Mon
day night he discovered two men in the
alley in rear of Harveys g. Williams, and
hailed them. They immediately ran off.
He fred at them, and followed them
around the square. He returned to the
alley again, and examined the side door.
He found that it gave away, the top bolt
alone being fastened. He saw through the
crack of the door that there was man IN
side. He gave the distress rap, and be-
fore he could get assistance, the man on
the inside slipped the bar across the door
and got out of the back window. He went
inside the warehouse, and found at the
rear door the plunder all piled up and
ready to be carried off. -.----.--.--.....
Policeman Southall testified that he
passed by Harveys & Williams at O'Clock,
and seeing Goode standing at the corner of
the Tobacco Exchange in rather sus-
picious manner, he chased him off. He
identified the prisoner (Goode) as the one
he chased off.
The circumstances attending the arrest
were brought out in evidence as follows !:
Captain Jinkins, Sergeant Burlington, and
Policeman White, upon warrant gotten
out by Messrs. Harveys & Williams upon
the description of the negroes, proceeded
to Messrs. Harveys & Williams to make
an examination. They found pair of
shoes in the door of Fitzpatrick's saloon.
They also found tracks Of bare feet, Of
which they took close measurement. They
proceeded to arrest Goode and Bibb. The
latter they found safely ensconced between
two feminines. These latter appeared to
testify to the alleged aIbi.l When they
got Goode to the station-house they made
him try on the shoes found in rear of Har-
veys & Williams, and they fitted him ex-
actly. The measurement of the tracks
was also found to correspond exactly
with his feet. The testimony of party
of countrymen near by at the time of the
robbery also went to prove that Goode and
Bibb were the chief parties engaged in the
robbery.
Additional witnesses being wanted, the
case was continued until Friday.
Bibb has been in the employ of Messrs.
Harveys & Williams for several years.

The BIGAMY CAsE.-The continued case
of James Lawrence (mulatto), charged
with bigamy, was called before the Mayor
yesterday. -
Judge Crump appeared as counsel for
the accused, and contended that the
grounds for the arrest for bigamy were not
sufficient. The certificate of the clerk Of
the County Court of New Hanover county,
N. c., to the effect that the parties had
lived together in state of concubinage,
might have been sufficient for legitimiziDg
offspring, but it would not be considered
sufficient to prove charge of bigamy.
He also contended that the Freedmen's
Bureau had no right to decide what con-
stituted legal marriage either in this State
or in North Carolina.
The further hearing of the case was
continued until Monday.
