day to answer for stabbing William Jackson
on Wednesday night. The only evidence
heard was that of officer Tyler, who testi-
fled that the wounded man had admitted to
him that the assault was provoked by him.
The case was continued until the 18th in
stant in order that it may be ascertained
whether the wound is fatal before there
are any further proceedings in the case.
Messrs. Green and Burch, who were the
companions of Jackson in the game of baga-
telle, deny that they we're under the in
fuence of liquor in any degree.
The witnesses in this case are Charles
Green, George Burch, DR.. Waring, Edward
Phelan, James NJ. Tyler, and E. P. Mur-

MAJOR PoE's INPEACHMENT.-The Com
monwealth's attorney, r. T. Daniel, Esq,
.ook occasion yesterday to correct a misap-
jury in regard to the charges preferred
against Major Poe, the Chief of Police. In
one Of the city papers he WAS represented
as recognizing in the Chief of Police power
10 take recognizance, and approving Of that
nficer's releasing person in his custody
on her own recognizance, and as saying that
Major Poe was responsible for the safe
keeping of parties who had been arrested E;
md if they appeared when required to do
20, it was nobody's business where he kept
them" This WAS the reverse Of what he
said. The Chief had the powers of q con-
stable. He is an executive and not a
judicial officer, and cannot exact a recogni-
zance. He is bound to obey the warrant Of
Il Justice. When he makes al arrest, and
until the case can be heard, the accused
-hould be kept in one of the station-houses
or watch houses. But the station house is
not the legal Jail. Cases may occur in
which the condition Of the person arrested
rs such as to make the station-house an un-
fit place of custody. The officer would have
TO use some discretion under such circum-
stances, but the arrested person would be
III his risk as to safe custody. After the
accused person has been examined he is,
If not discharged, to be bailed or commit
Ted by the justice.
Mr.. Daniel further stated that he be-
lieved Justice Powers had acted conscien-
liously in bringing the charges against the
Chief Of Police.

An UNFORTUNATE NEGRO.-In the happy
days of slavery, when every darky was free
10 have as many wives as Prince Bluebeard
Or King Solomon, Tom Clarke, a feld-hand
in Charlotte county, wooed ard won q likely
girl named Caroline. They lived together
until June last without the performance of
a marriage ceremony, when Tom came to
Richmond, and soon, fascinated by the
comely face Of Lettie Brown, took her also
unto himself as wife. With them, too,
all was "merry as marriage bell," Caro-
line, in the mean time, being informed by
letters, a la Phillips, Of the proceedings
of her husband, though never word was
said about his new wife. At last her sus-
picions were aroused. She came to town
in search of her recreant spouse, and then
she learned the truth. She was incensed,
and going before grand jury swore to the
facts as above stated. The grand jury
straightway brought in an Indictment
against Thomas aud Lettie for unlawfully
cohabiting together,
The case was tried yesterday in the
Hastings Court. Thomas's lawyer found
that the first couple had never been married
in due form, and sagely advised his client
to be married at once to his second love,
and thus escape conviction for unlawful CO.
habitation. A license was Immediately
procured, and the parties united in an ad-
joining room. The lawyer rubbed his
hands gleefully, and walking into court
informed the bench when the case was
called that his client and Lettie were now
man and wife, and offered the license and
certificate of minister in proof. The
Commemorative attorney scanned both,
and then quietly gave notice that Thomas
would be held for bigamy, as by an act of
the Legislature passed in February, 1866,
all parties then living together were de-
clared man and wife: ergo, Thomas and
Caroline were man and wife; and Thomas
was now a bigamist.
Thomas and Lettie Clark were then con-
victed and fined $50 each for unlawfully
cohabiting together, and the former was
committed to Jail, whence he will be
brought this morning to answer the more
serious charge, which may send him to the
penitentiary.
