Court commenced Monday.
The residence of Mr.. J. G.
Stafford, on Africa street, was en-.
tered burglario1sly and his store
room robbed of its conteuts. The
guilty parties have not yet been
detected.
Taylor Brown and Joe Jannings,
two colored rowdies, were brought
up before the Mayors Court for
disorderly conduct, during reli-
eious service, in one of the colored
churches of our city. Jailed fol
four days.
The entire gang of negroes en-
gagged in the Leblanc robbery, on
Main street, have been arrested.
The last one was arrested on the
Voolfolk plantation on Crosse
Tete, aad is now in jail With his
confederates.
We call the attention of the
property authorities to the condi-
ton of the wharf. A few spikes
and ten minutes work now on the
wood work of the dirt mold, will
save no small amount of money
and labor in few weeks hence.
The river is still rising at this
point, renewing apprehensions OF
high water. The latest advices,
however, report the river on a
stand at Memphis and falling above
that point. The river men GEN
orally express the opinion that we
will not have an overflow this
season.
The premises Of Eliza Smith, q
colored woman living on Front
street, was forcibly entered by her
sister and robbed Of some dressing
apparel. The sister claimed that
Eliza owed her q small sum of
money-too small to go to law
about-and that she had only Sc
questered the goods and would
return them when Liza paid her.
Ju default of bail she was remanded
to jail.
