POLICE CoURT.-The gloominess OF the
weather and the muddy condition of the
streets tended, no doubt, to keep. many
a spectator from being present at this
court yesterday morning.
Charles Carter, (colored,) who mis-
took the Second Ward Market house for
q spacious and airy bedroom, and who
had selected one of the. benches for o
bed Of down, was arraigned for being
found asleep in this public place contra
ry to the ordinance for such cases made
and provided. He was fined 81 and cost,
lodging included.
John Waterhouse, charged with
creating disorder and tumult, was fined
S. and cost, and not having the "spons,'
was sent around on Fifth street. John
has become o strong advocate to the
claims of Capt. Whisky. IT,.

RIVER NEws.--The river was rising
slowly, last night, with five feet nine
inches by the marks. The probability
lis that there will be fine boating stage
of water. Many tow boats are passing
up with their squads of coal bargcs,
and, should the river come up two or
three feet more, We shall expect to see
q large quantity Of coal pass down for
the lower market. The Arrowline and
several other little boats are at the
wharf.
The New State left for Parkersburg,
yesterday, at IL A. NJ, the James Rees
for Suufsh at P. NJ, and the Forest
City for Steubenville ut 81 P. N.
Boats leaving to-day: The Express
for Parkersburg at II A. NJ, the james
Rees for Sunfsh at 3 P. NJ, and the
Forest City for Steubenville at 81 2. NJ.
The J. w. Carrot dropped down by
the "River Side Mills" last night, but
whether she got off we do not know.

Is 1T RIGHT.-There is considerable
annoyance to pedestrians, especially to
the lady portion, experienced from the
hauling of little wagons filled with
garbage on the sidewalks. Where the
sidewalks are broad, and the travel
limited, this annoyance is not so great;
but where the travel is great and the
side walks narrow it is extremely an
noying. We noticed, day OF two ago
that as one of the little garbage wagons
was crossing the stone bridge, the side
walk was we'll filled with ladies
going the contrary direction, and
when they met it was almost i'm
possible for the ladies to get
past. Some had to step off the board
platform. Now it seems Twill the as
tute linguist of the Intelligencer allow
MS to use the word to US that this is
not exactly as it should be. 1t is true
all persons have right to the side
walks. But We doubt whether the
trundling of these wagons comes with
in the parrie,c (pardon us Mr.. Intelligen'
cer,) of the ordinance describing the
manner in which the sidewalks shall
be occupied. This is only suggestive.

ATTENTION, DEMoCRATs.-The Cen.
trail Democratic Club meets at their
Hall tonight, in the OFT building. Let
there be general turnout. We have a
willy foe to contend with, who, havin &
had the prestige of success for some six
or seven years, and having become ex-
perts in oil kinds Of political chicanery
will have to be watched with vigilance.
Now is the time to act. Every day
strengthens the probable success of our
Democratic and Conservative friends.
Be at your posts, then, lovers of law
and order, and dive back the enemies
of Liberty who cry" Peace" when their
swords are unsheathed and are prepared
for war.

ceivable pitch. Mr.. Crnmbacker keeps

Is 1T OMrNoUs THE local OF the
Intelligencer cackles quite loudly over
the uufor tunate occurrence of the
breaking of the hickory pole at Ritch-

the malignity Of the spirit (unseen
agent) which pervades the party. In
the vicinity of the place where the pole
was to have been raised, a few houses
exhibited the charitable scene of shouts
and the waving of handkerchiefs when
the splice gave way. This is q

MASQUERADE BALL.-There was q

night. T. T. Cocayne furnished the
music. We learn they had pleasant

to find out the "Veiled Prophecies" or
the Concealed Knight" These par
ties become interesting, as all claims to
etiquette are discarded and Chester
fields rules laid aside.
