BATHING HIS FEET TO KEEP Hrs
HEAD CooL.-An old white headed
man without hat was perambulatiug
the streets yesterday, evidently under
the influence of mean whisky. Late
in the evening he wandered down to
the river at the mouth or the Main
Street Sewer, and laid down close to
the waters edge with his feet 10 the
river and his body lying parallel with
the sluice leading from the mouth of
the sewer to the river. Had he rolled
over once he would have been in the
water in the sluicc, and probably
drowned. Had such been the result,
We do not know that any particular
loss to the community would have
been sustained, except that the county
might have been put to the expense
of burying him. We have noticed
the same man on the streets intoxi-
Gated for two or three days, annoying
every body he met. Why is he not
taken up and sent to the Poor House
or out of the city?

REooRDER's CouRr. The moral
epoch is ended, the dog star
RACES again. The Recorder is again
in the chair of judgment, and Justice
has resumed her sword and scales.
The Recorders Court was again
busy yesterday, and the city lookup,
alias Hotel de Royston. is again do
ing lively business.
James Brown was charged with
having committed an assault and bat
terry on a fellow being, and like the
fellow IN New Orleans who was sent
TO the penitentiary for stealing, " the
suit went agin him." The Recorder
wanted $40 05, but Brown was short.
He wasn't one of the Bulls at the
Gold Room yesterday, and had no
share in the eleven millions realized.
1t was finally agreed that if he would
pay 81 to-day, the balance would be
RENTED.
John Stobbs sampled too much
boomerang whisky and fell from the
ranks. He was picked up as a strag-
gler, and taxed S. 45. He gave Sc
curity, and made a graceful exit by
center.
Frank Dean (no relation of our
friend Bill Dean. Ex- Councilman of
the Second Ward, nor of Dean Rich
mond the famous New York politi-
cian) was not only drunk but dis
orderly, and was required to contribute
to the school fund 81 so, which he
contributed like little man.
A few other cases were continued
until to-day. and it is not altogether
unlikely that Judge Willard will, this
afternoon, deliver an elaborate opinion
on the highly important question !:
Is white man or boy, who goes to
a negro ball and raises disturbance.

CoURr OF COMMON PLEAs.-Tbera
was no case of general public interest
before the Court of Common Pleas
yesterday, and the monotony of the
proceedings were only relieved by a

of an attorney. because of difference
of opinion between himself and tie

PosTPoNED.--It will be remem-
bered that we last week made an
item that Col. Buchanan had gone to
Petersburgh, Ind, for the purpose
of defending Crane, who murdered a
man at Wiuslow last March. The
trial was called up before Judge
Baker, of Vincennes, but it was
found impossible on the first day to
impannel jury, as nearly every one
had formed an opinion on the case.
The Judge then sent out TO the out.
skirts of the county for a special
venture Of forty eight jurors. and the
next day, after the Court had secured
a jury, the defendant fled an affidavit
that he did not believe, ne could gel
justice under Judge Baker. and
asked that the case be tried by an
other Judge. Judge Baker an
nouneed that he would call in Judge
Jas. g. Jones, and the trial was
postponed till next December.

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. - Mr.. A.
Sehwaegerle, the we'll known sign
painter of this city, and his son Philip,
met with a serious accident about 103
o'clock yesterday morning. They
were together on swinging scaffold,
engaged in painting the sign on the
front Of the Union office, in Washing
ton House Block, on Third Street
when the scafold gave way, and they
were precipitated to the pavement, a
distance of nearly twenty feet. Both
sustained serious Injuries, though,
happily, no bones were broken. They
were taken up insensible and conveyed
home in carriage, and DR.. Legler
was called to their aid. IF they are
not injured internally, of which fears
are entertained, they will soon be out
again.
The greatest care should be OBJ
served in rigging swinging scaffolds,
as such accidents are frightfully fire.

settled by compromise yesterday, as
mentioned elsewhere, took a toast or
two in honor of the occasion, and
afterwards fell in with a man who
had been friend of each of the high

arose between them, which resulted
in the man knocking the woman
down. No arrests had been made up
to midnight, so far as we could learn.
This is certainly an interesting cpl
