POLICE CoURT.-There was but little
of interest in the dress parade of fusi-
leers before Judge Good yesterday
morning. There were but two subjects
waiting hearing.
William Alex. Burkhart was standing
on Sunday night near the corner on the
Island known as "the store and a boy
named James Deters came along and
said to him chow are you, Alex I" This
salutation seemed to get Burkhart
where his hair was short, although he is
a man grown, and the other boy of
fifteen or sixteen, he whaled away at
Deiters and struck him in the back,
making him think mule had kicked
him. Burkhart was fined IS and costs,
or geology for twenty days.
James Templeton was up on charge
Of having been drunk aud disorderly.
An officer captured james night before
last near Squire Clohan's office, pretty
full of fusil and leaning up against a
house, all alone, swearing at mark
James was the queerest looking bird we
have seen in the Police Court for some
time. His face was striped with black,
as if he was warrior in war paint;
from his coat hung miners lamp, and
his clothing was fastened around him in
some mysterious manner, so that one
single single nail would hold them all
on him. He would have made splen-
did picture. Brown & Higgins should
get hold of James. He was fined 81 and
costs and promised to sin no more.

TRoTTING NEXT SATURDAY.-Ift there
be good day and good track on Satur-
day next, we are to have one of the most
exciting trots, on the Fair Grounds,
ever had in this city. A match has
been made between Thomas A. Nit
chell's bay mare, Trim, J. F. Reynolds
& Co. 3 sorrel gelding, No Name, and j.
F. Raynold's bay mare, Little Queen
Bess, for purse of $500. The race is to
be one of mile heats, best three in FIVE,
the Mitchell mare to go to saddle and
the other animals to harness. The
horses are all speedy, all have made the
mile "insids of fifty" and they are so
evenly matched as to leave it matter
of doubt which will prove the winner.
The event is causing considerable ex-
element in sporting circles, and we
have heard that there was likelihood
of pools being sold on the race.

WANT TO KNOW, You KNow.-The op-
pouents of the "let up" movement COM
plain that they were euchered by the
'rlet uppers" in Madison township at
the primary meeting on last Saturday
night. It's none of our funeral, gentle
men. We are satisfied that if the half
dozen gentlemen who are now CON-
planning about being left out in the cold
had been sharp enough they would have
fixed the ticket instead of those wha
did. There is good deal of dog eat
dog in Republican meetings. Still,
those who were not selected are anxious
to know when, where aud by whom the
Madison township ticket was selected
If they find ont, we hope they'll let us
know. AS the thing stands now il
seems as if the "let up" advocates had
been too smart for the other chaps.

A NEW ARTIoLE.-From a notice which
we publish below, copied from the Lynchburg
Republican, it will be seen that the firm Of
Faulkner & Craighill of that city, have COM
pounded, aud are now manufacturing horse
powder which meets the object for which it
was designed. Mr.. Ed. Chaghill, the junior
member of the firm, is one of the sons of our
fellow citizen, VIM. N. Craighill, Esq, and
we are glad to learn that he is doing well in
his new home. The Republican says:--
The horse and cattle powders prepared by
Faulkner L. Craighill, and elsewhere adver-
tised in this paper, are highly recommended
by all who have tried them. They improve
the appetite, loosen the hide, and in every way
improve the animals to which they are given.
Many certificates can be furnished, in which
broken down and disabled animals were en-
tirely transformed into health and strength by
the use of this remedy.
In addition to the above, we have seen
other notices of this article, of most fatter-
ing character.

CHURCH DINNER d SUpPER.-On Monday
last, tic ladies Of Bcrryville and vicinity,
connected with the NJ. L. Church, South,
gave dinner and supper, the proceeds of
Wholesome FIVE hundred dollars-arc to be
applied to the repair of their house of worship.
It was our good fortune to partake of the
delicious fare provided on the occasion, and
can cheerfully testify to its abundance and
excellence, as we'll as to the superior manage
rncnt of the entire affair. The greatest inter
est was manifested over the disposition to be
made Of nu elegant saddle and bride, and the
contest was warm one. 1t finally resulted
in awarding the articles to Rev. VIM. e.
EggIeston, the senior preacher of the circuit.
The junior preacher, Rev Mr.. llighley. who
seems to enjoy deserved popularity with his
people, received a very flatterug vote, and his
friends at once made up "a purse aud presented
him with fine saddle, in appreciation of his
merits as u minister and a clever gentleman.

REMOVING DIS .BILITIEs.-The present
Legislature, we are pleased to state, seems
disposed to manifest some Ebcraiity towards
those attorneys who are unable TO take the
test oath. In the Scrate last week, bills for
exemptiug our t"wn>men, Messrs. VIM. ii.
Travers and Joseph Trannell, were passed to
an engrossment. In the House of Delegates,
ON the same day, Mr.. Harrison, of this county,
presented the petition Of D. w. Potterfeld
and other citizens CT the county, asking that
r. f. Cooke, esq, be permitted to practice
without taking the test oath. We sincerely
hope that these bills will receive the favor-
able action of the Legislature, but confess
we should prefer to see repeal Of the law
which makes these special bills necessary.
Siuce writing the above, we learn that the
ac,ion of the Senate was favorable TO the ad
mission of Mr.. Trapnel to the bar, but that
the case of Mr.. Travers was laid Oh the ta
lie for the present.
