MALICE OR STUPIDITY.-When the
FIRE bells rang on Saturday evening, a
couple of draymen, either stupidity or
malioiously impeded the progress of
the fireman in reaching the FIRE. In
one case no harm was done, but had
it not been for the skill and vigilance
of the driver of the hose cart, the re-
suit might have been broken neck.
When about to turR the corner of
Third and Carpenter Streets, dray-
man drove directly in the path of the
hose cart, the horse attached to
which, was of course running at the
highest speed. and unable to check
himself, but by a skillfull turn of the
driver, the collision was avoided.
Bystanders report that instead of try
ing to get out of the way the drayman
smiled maliciously at the apparent
prospect Of serious accident.
Another CaSe.-When the Eclipse
Hook and Ladder truck was being
driven down Third Street, another
drayman. with hogshead of tobacco
on his dray, drove leisurely across
Third Street, at the intersection Of
Sycamore, in spite of the shouts of
the driver and the bystanders. warn
ing him to keep out of the way.
The horse being blind anG unable
to avoid a collision. and the speed
being so great that it could not be
slackened, the poor horse struck
violently against the hogshead, knock
ing the poor beast insensible. AS
quickly as possible the truck was de.
tached and run by hand to the fire
and the horse taken up. A loDe
cash under his right eye, a badly
bruised fore shoulder and knee, anG
several minor cuts and bruises showed
how severely he was hurt.
The drayman was arrested later il
the evening and brought before
Esquire Emery. but Mr.. Bullen, tn,
owner of the horse. declined to prose
cute him, leaving the prosecution tt
the city authorities to whom he vii
look for his indemnity.
The horse and dray is said to be
long to George Klink & Bro. and tn,
driver merely a hired laborer TO
them.

A COMPETENT TREASURER. - A
friend from the interior relates the
following aneedote of the Democratic
treasurer of a city not very far re-
moved from this metropolis:
During the canvass, an enthusiastic
Democrat. who had heard much of
the "eminent qualifications" of the
treasurer, then candidate, warmly
supported him, repeating the story of
his qualifications with great earnest
ness.
After the election the jealous Dem
ocrat became the possessor Of certain
city orders. which he took to the
treasurer to have endorsed.
The Treasurer took them, and hold
ing one of them wrong side up. en-
deavored to study out its meaning.
when suddenly he discovered by the
vignette that it was not right, and re-
versing it, beheld the number 4,749
in one corner, and slowly studying on
it, said: -Four thousand dollars an
more. Wall, / reckon you better
wait wait till my uncle comes in; he
keeps the books an the money. l
don't guess we got so much in the
treshry as that are"
The Democrat explained that this
was only a sort of due bill requiring
his acceptance, and not cash order.
"OhI" exclaimed the Treasurer,
that's it. Ell; you want me I should
sign it. Well, you just wait till my
uncle comes in; he'll sign it for you.
He does all that business"
"And that's the chap they towld w
was seoh a scollard, and was SO we'll
qualified; an he don't know an ord
her for twinty dollars from wan for
four thousand, and has to wait for his
uncle to pay, or his uncle to sign an
ordher. Small blame to the raddikles
for sayin' be was an ignoramus."

CRIMINAL CoURT.-George r. Ell
lott. the thief who at first refused to
rive any name, was tried by the
Court, found guilty of robbing G. w.
Hoover of $3.50. Judge johnson sem
fenced him to five years in the Peni-
tertiary.
Philip Hill was tried for robbing a
drunken man from Spencer County,
of ninety dollars in cash and a note
for four hundred and fifty dollars.
Hills confession Of the theft was
in evidence, as well as the finding of
the note by Marshal Wunderlich; yet,
3 Judge johnson in his charge to the
iurv. said that whatever moral wrong
Hill had done, there was no evidence
that larceny had been committed.
Prosecuting Attorney, Hargrave,
took occasion to protest against the
instructions, claiming that the evil
dence of the crime was clear; when
Judge johnson, resumiDg, said, that
should the jury bring in the verdict
of guilty, he would set it aside.
The jury retired, and, after short
absence, returned, saying they could
not agree, and that they stood ten to
two.
The Judge intimate d to them that it
was their duty to agree; that he was
presumed to know the law he ex-
nounded; and that those who dis
scented from his views claimed to
know the law better than he. The
Jury retired again, and, after remain
ing outesome hours, were discharged,
being unable to agree.
