JACK on a BESDER.--John II. Rose-not
our ALain-street friend, but nautical and
exceedingly naughty chap from over the
scas-came ashore on Friday night last, and
becoming surcharged with whiskey, pro-
ceeded to certain establishment down town,
where, by his wild and dcmonstratiye man
ner, he soon caused general stampede Of all
the inmates. The police being loudly called
for, Policemen Tyler and Poiteaux fastened
to the spot and attempted to take him to the
lookup; but Jack being very stalwart fel-
low, and not liking the idea of being deprived
OF his liberty during the Christmas, offered a
fierce resistance, and it was not until he had
utterly demolished several window-panes and
received many blows from the locust "bil-
lies" in the hands Of the policemen that he
could be prevailed upon to give over his
frantic freaks. lie was finally lodged in the
watch-house, and appeared before the Police
Justice on Saturday morning looking very
pcn'tent and badly used-up. The Justice, in
consideration of his suffering and on his pro-
mise to leave the city Immediately, babe him
go and sin no more.

REWARD FOR RASCAL.-Mayor Kelley
offers reward of fifty dollars for the arrest
and conviction of the person who turned in
a false alarm OF fire at Rockets on Friday
night. Apart from all other considerations,
the expense Of a false alarm to the city is 10
small matter. In New York each alarm takes
$1,000 out of the treasury. Here the Mayor
is allowed to offer reward Of 500 for the
apprehension oil q person who gives false
alarm, and the penalty for conviction is I'M
prisonment ior one month and fine Of not
less than 500 nor more than $500, at the op-
ton Of the Police Justice.

MYsTERIoUs DISArPEARANCE OF 4 IOUSG
CITIZEN OF RlCHMoND.--About ten days ago
Alf. Lcmuel Powers. n commission merchant,
at No. l540 east Main street, sent his son to
New York to attend to some business for
him. Mr. Powers started for New York
with a handsome gold llunting-case watch
and an amount of money upon bis person.
Upon his arrival in that city he drew upon
his father for $400; the draft was paid, and
though Mr.. Powers the iather) has written
several times to his son, and been to New
York once or twice in search Of him, yet it
seems that his visits have been fruitless, and
rs vet there is 10 clue to his whereabouts.
The parents of the young man, as well as bis
many friends here, are extremely anxious to
know what has been his fate.

GAMING CASES BEFORE TIE Police COURT
On Saturday morning Justice White disposed
of the last Of the victims OF Major Poc'>
midnight raid upon tho faro hanks. The
cases Of John y. Morsham and Frank Allen,
charged with exhibiting tile tiger" ut the
corner Of Fourteenth and Franklin streets,
were first taken up. The testimony elected
was to the effect that the usual paraphcrrAlia
of gaming-house was found, but that no
gambling was going on at the time the peace
Of the "cIub-rGons" was disturbed. There
seemed doubt, too, about the proprictorship
of the establishment, and Captain Tyler testi-
ned that neither Worsham nor the butler
claimed the contiscated property. Both OF
the accused were therefore discharged.
Messrs. Muller and Roganni, who were
arrested on the corner Of Eighth and Main
streets hy Captain Disney, were next ar
raigned. 1t appeared that number Of gen.
tlemen wcrs sitting around Il table covered
with cards and checks, and behind which
Roganni was standing. Captain Disney saw
Roganni put something into the drawer.
Muller did not claim proprictorship of the
establishment, and there was no proof that
lie occupied that relation. lie was discharged,
and Roganni was sent Oh for indictment.

DECISION OF JUSTICE WHITE AGAINST SAM
PIE MERCHANTS the Police Court on 81
turday Justice White decided several sample
cases, in which Il late ruling OF the Supreme
Court had been urged III favor Of the accused.
rhe following is M abstract Of The decision
lnasmuch is the Supreme Court decided, III
the case OF Ward US. The State Of Maryland
that the revenue laws Of that State are iincon-
stitutonal, because q The fact that dscriini-
nation aCdS made against tnoli-rcSdcntS land aS
the city ordinance Of Richmond failed TO make
any such discrimination, the court holds that
the ordinance Is not in conflict with the Con-
stitlItion Of the United Suites. The Supreme
Court admitted the right Of the several States
10 regulate taxes to provide for the current
expenses of their governments. The court
held there was q material difference between
the terms "merchants," commission mcrch-
ants aud sample merchants" The pro-
visions Of the State law apply alike ~ reSi-
dents and non-residcnts. The decision Of the
Supreme Court applies ~ tie laws of Mary
land. which differ materially from those o!
Eirgimi;l--1he one seemingly discriminating
between residents and non-reSidents, while
the other fails to do 50.
In the several cases heard ly the Justice
the minimum penalty Of 500 was imposed in
each case, and the parties sent Oh to the Hus-
tings Court for Indictment.
