| CIRCUIT COURT.-Ine Crlmlnal OOCReI
OF this Court Is being rapidly disposed
Of Judge Caldwell and all the officers
| OF the court have gone to work as II
| they meant business, and we will be
much mistaken If there is not a tery
large reduction in the number OF causes
on the docket at the close or the term.
The trial OF Sidney Shey for house,
breaking was set for yesterday, but he
forfeited his recognizance, and thus
contributed a considerable sum to the
general school fund.
Cornelius alias 'Toby" Vance, in
dicted for petit larceny, was brought
into court, plead guilty, and sentenced
to confinement in the county Jail for
sixty days.
James Richards, alias Ross, plead
guilty to the charge OF attempt to COM
NIT burglary and was sentenced to two
months confinement in the county Jail.
In the case of the State Us. John Ma
son, charged with grand larceny, ajury
was empannelled and number of wit
nesses examined for the prosecution
and defence. The larceny of coat
from the bar-room of the Pemberton
House, In January last, was clearly es-
tablished. The defendants counsel
virtually acknowledged the guilt OF his
client, and confined his remarks main-
~ 10 the point that the article stolen
WAS not of the value of twenty dollars,
and he was not, consequently, guilty of
grand larceny. The case was given to
the jury, who brought in the verdict,
guilty of petit larceny" The Court
thereupon sentenced the prisoner to
confinement in the county Jail for four
months.
Good for the State; Parker for the
prisoner.
The only case fixed for trial to-day
was that of.William Fredericks, indict-
ed for grand larceny.

HELD TO BAIL.-Henry BreBOck has
been claiming good share OF public
attention during the last three or four
days. First he was brought before
Esq. Hammer on State warrant for
disorderly conduct on the street cars,
and fined ten dollars and costs. Then
he was up before Judge Good for the
same offence and fined n like sum
under the city ordinance. This trial
came off yesterday morning, and was
only just closed when the officers came
down on him with a State warrant for
stabbIn9 Louis Kline, the same even
ing the difficulty occurred on the car.
Ho was taken before Esq. Hammer and
a partial investigation of the case had
1t was shown that he had inflicted a
deep flesh wound on one of Kline's
limbs, disabling him from walking and
imperiling his life. The ARRAY hap
pened at or near Bingle's alley in
Centre Wheeling. After having the
evidence, Esq. X. required Bresock to
give bond In the sum of three hundred
dollars for his appearance before him

FUHERAL.-The funeral of the late
w. G. Bsttelle took place from his form
or residence on the Island, yesterday
afternoon at o'clock. Notwithstand-
ing the intense cold large number
united in paying this last tribute of res
pect to the memory of the deceased. We
heard the remark made by one who has
lived in the city for many years that on
no similar occasion had he ever seen
SO full delegation of the Masonic Or
der in procession. During the progress
of the cortege through the streets the
bells on the steamboats, lying at the
wharf were tolled, and their flags
were displayed at half mast. Mr.. Bat
telIe at the time of his death was Worthy
Master, we believe, OF Masonic Lodge,
and was held in high esteem by the
mem bers of the fraternity. The inter-
ment was made in Mt. Wood Cemetery
and an eloquent and appropriate adj
dress was delivered at the grave by DR..
Bates, who fills a prominent position
in the order.
In the death of Mr.. Battelle our city
loses an active, useful and enterprisiDg
citizen. Peace to his memory.
