the Recorder yesterday, and the eash
receipts were very good.
NJ. Kelley was first on the list
charged with being drunk, and was
fined SIS 10. which he paid. When
first arrested be said he was an Odd
Fellow, and hailed from Princeton,
but afterwards acknowledged that he |
lived in this city, and was not MEM
Der of the Order. We suppose he
thought the police would let him 60
when he gave the first account of
himself, but the dodge would not
work.
A grocer, who was ignorant of the
ordinances. was brought before His
Honor, charged with buying vegeta-
bles in market to be sold again. He
was fined S. 10, which he paid.

withhold on account of his business,

likewise. to s. 10.
Martin Rice was next on the dock
ct aad be was charged with being
drunk and disorderly.. The Recorder
figured up the damages to the peace

as security for payment within thirty
days. His offer was accepted, and 1t

some time under an attack of chronic
impecuniosity," and had not the
money on deposit to meet the check.
The note went TO protest, and Taylor
went to Castle Royston," which is a
very good place as . roast pig is an
