To BE TRIED AGAIN.-We have
hitherto given publication to what
has been known as the celebrated
cow case" and had supposed that we
were done with it. Tho ease was
heard before Squire Emory and a
jury Of twelve men, and a verdict rem
dered against the defendant. But
owing to some new points being rails
ed, Squire Emory granted anew trial,
and it will be heard at Justice David
sons office to-day at 8 o'clock. The
costs alone, so far, amount to $57.
REooRDER's CoURT.-A gentleman
who formerly taught school in this
city, and also occasionally contributed
to the newspapers, was brought before
the Recorder yesterday charged with
being drunk. He was assessed in the
sum of S18, and in default of payment
will have to work it out. The ease of
this man is a sad one, and points a
moral hat it would be we'll for every
young man to heed. Being the pos
SCISSOR of a fine education, and having
a pleasant manner aud polite address,
he could have made a reputation for
himself in almost any of the walks
Of life. But he had his fault, a d
that fault has proved TO BE- his curse.
He INDUCED in the use of intoxicat-
ing liquors, until his appetite for
strong drink has become almost un-
appeaseable. He has tried several
times to conquer his worst enemy, but
liz every trial has failed. He has now
become an habitual drunkard. Let
our young men take warning Of all
such eases.
