LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

Der of our citizens who generally take
stroll after dinner, we're yesterday after
noon witnesses of very loving scene
that occurred on the point of rocks out
Lacour street. in the rear of Jno. Craig's
residence. A gentleman and lady (who
they were deponent sayeth noD were
standing on the pinnacle of this mount,
he having her encirced with one arm
whilst with the other he was engaged in
pointing out the magnificent scenery
surrounding Phoebe. To make affairs
more charming the he-male would every
once in o while stoop and kiss the She
male. The scene was witnessed by the
entire population of Chinatown and nu-
merous pedestrians. The denizens of
Chinatown seemed to enjoy the affair
hugely, judging by their ordinations
and laughter. 1t was very prominent
spot for scene like the one witnessed.
ATTEMPT TO FIRE CHrNArowN. "A fire
was discovered yesterday at Sam Sing 8
house in Chinatown at about four o'clock
and was extipguishe1 by some of the
Cinnamon. After it was put out, the
premises were examined and it was
found that coal oil had been spread on
the premises and it had then been set
fire to, evidently the work of an incen.
diary. Officer Mckee and several others
visited the place yesterday. to see if any
thing could be found out about it, but
they were not successful.
