CRIMINAL NOTES.

In view of the fact that yesterday was
Monday, it was unusually dull and quiet in
the Police Court.
Joe Rucker, negro, was sent to jail by
Justice Baske,te yesterday, on the charges
of larceny and .vagrancy.
William Allen, charged with passing
counterfeit money, was placed in Jail yes
terday by the United States Marshal.
T.. r. Hooper, in Jail on the charge of
selling whisky in Cheatham county with
out license, was released on bond yester-
day, and at once took his departure for
home.
Alice Flanagan, arraisned before justices
Cassetty and Creighton yesterday, on the
charge Of fraudulently apprOpriatiDg a
dress belonging to Mary Handy, was re-
leased, the evidence having been insult
ficient to identify her with the charge.
William Beasly, colOred, in Jail on the
charge Of an assault with an attempt to
commit rape on little cOlored girl eleven
years old, named Katy Bryant, was taken
before Justice Baskette yesterday afternoon.
Two well known attorneys appeared for the
defense and the prosecution and a number
Of witnesses were examined. When the
testimony had been heard the case was dis
missed without hearing any argument. The
case appeared to have been one of unusual
interest to the colored population, as large
number being about the Office during the
progress of the trial.

A MILITARY SCENE.
The "Grant Guards, Make APPIiea-
ton for ShOOtIng.IrOns.

| The "Grant Guards Make APPIlea
ton for ShOOtIng.IrOns.
Adit. Gen. Handy was called upon yes
| terday by a delegation from the "Grani
! Guards"-that cOlOred military company
having a name, but still struggling for q
| local habitatiOn. Horton, an ex-FederaI
| troop, is Captain, and Sam Lowery, Ser.
| geant-Maior. They were along and theil
SQUAD was piloted by Squire Butler, q
civilian. In introducing the party, by a
| slip of the tongue, he dubbed Sam LOwery
"Maior General" The latter, however,
was not so much overcome but that he
kept his balance tall the correction could
be made.
The object of their visit was to ascertain
whether they could obtain arms from the
the State and by what process. They were
told that they could, by complying strictly
with the law, as all other companies are re-
quired to do, viz: to uniform themselves
and give bond for the safe keeping of the
guns and accoutrements.
Capt. Horton said they were having uni
forms made at present, and would give a
grand festival next Monday night at Liber-
ty Hall to raise money TO complete them.
He described the uniform to be, black pants
with yellow stripes, blue jackets, broad
brimmed black hat fastened up at one point
with an eagle pin, and displaying a feather
the hat being a kind Of "ShackOO."
It was suggested that he must mean
"chapeau," since he could not have been
thinking Of the Hungarian "ShakO," which
is a cap. He stood corrected, exhibiting
two long rows of ivory teeth, while his
companion exercised a hearty gItiaw at his
expense,
They retired, promising TO return with
the company in uniform for their guns ere
long. The Sergeant-MaiOr asked the Ad-
iutaut-general's permission for the company
to 90 to the Centennial at Philadelphia in
'76. The privilege was graciOusly accorded,
and the ''cullud troops" bowed themselves
out nObly.
