VANDALIsM.-On Monday night
some contemplate villain applied his
knife to a couple of young maple
trees in front OF Furry &Son's carriage
works, stripping the bark from them,
he then used his cutlery upon the
leather top ofa carriage in front OF the
works, cutting several long Sits and
nearly running it. Several gates OH
the street were taken from their fast
enings and removed to other lots. A
fellow who can take pleasure in such
exhibitions OF vandalism has enjoyed
his liberty quite long enough.

OF Trinity Methodist church gathered at
the church last night, and having provided
themselves with an abundant supply OF the
good things OF this life proceeded to the
residence Of Mr.. Jacob Hare, on Twenty

surprised the aged couple with substantial
tokens Of appreciation Of their Christian life
and character. The occasion also celebrated
their fifty-fifth wedding anniversary.
The party was led by Rev. A. c. Bledsoe,
pastor of the church, who presented the tes-
timonials in an address, referring to their
long life of Christian integrity, which had
spread such holy influence throughout the
entire church, leaving such bright exam
pie for the young. Mr.. Hare and his wife
have been members Of the Methodist Church
for fifty-four years.
After spending short time in prayer and
singing the party returned, followed by the
blessings OF this worthy gentleman and his
lady.

Hillary Page, you have been three times

Independent Mouement.-A small meet
ing OF disaffected citizens met at the Old
Tavern Monday night for the purpose OF
endeavoring to find out some white citizen
who would oppose the Conservative nomi-
nee for the Office of Mayor.
After considerable talk, which was in
dulged in by their two chairmen, J. c. Rob-
insOn and William P. Kidd, Il resolution was
adopted endorsing Mr.. Robert Beattie for
the office in question. A committee was ap-
pointed to wait upon Mr.. Beattie and inform
him of the action Of the meeting. lie de-
clined the compliment. Yesterday some OF
the most prominent participants in the meet
ing were still on the hunt for candidate,
and it was surmised that Mr.. John Taylor
would accept the nomination, but many OF
bis friends doubt it.

City Council-Street InproUen,ents.-An
adjourned meeting OF the City Council was
held Monday night to consider the report OF
the Committee on Streets. 1t recommends
that Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, and Ele-
venth streets be graded from Stockton to
Perry; Twelfth from Stockton to Semmes;
Decatur, cambridge, Porter, and Perry,
from Seventh to Twelfth the cut in Stock
ton to be filled rs far as practicable with
surplus earth taken from the streets named,
and Stockton to be graded between said
streets (the city hands to do the work). 1t
also recommends that the work be begun by
the 1st of June, and completed blythe 1st Of
December, 1876
They also ask to be allowed to change the
streets, or the lines Of streets, as they may
deem best; that the work be extended to
other streets as they may deem expedient
until the present appropriation Of $4,000
shall have been used for that purpose. In
conclusion, they ask to be allowed to pro-
cure the services Of an engineer. The re-
port was adopted.

Election Set ASide.-Yesterday Judge
Weisiger, of the Circuit Court, in the con-
tested-election case OF Hey and others Us.
Colonel Ambers, Commonwealth's attorney,
set aside the order made by Judge Clopton,
of the County Court, authorizing an elee-
ton to be held to ill said Office on the 25th
instant.
1t is understood that @ writ of prohibi-
ton will be applied FOR from the Court OF
Appeals to stop the execution Of the order
Of Judge Weisiger upon the ground that
Judge Clopton's decision in regard to time
was coram non judicies, and therefore the
order Of the Judge of the Circuit Court is a
nullity.

Hatcher Will Case Decided.-The long
contested Hatcher will-case was yesterday
decided in the Circuit Court in favor OF the
defendants-that is, that the decedent, Mrs.
Hatcher, died intestate. This cause has
been pending for several years in the
court, and has awakened considerable in
terest owing to the number Of parties in.
terested and the peculiar feature Of the suit.
The petitioners were represented by Messrs.
McRae e. Christian and Brooks, and the
defendants by Messrs. Taylor, Nash, and
Hunter. The petitioners will probably ap-
peal to the Supreme Court, as they gave no
tice Of their desire to file bills Of exceptions.

REPAIRS TO THE BRoAD-STREET ENGINE
HousE.-The repairs contemplated to the
Broad-Street engine-house embrace new
floor and one or two changes which will in
crease the facility Of getting out with the
apparatus. The present floor, which Is
rapidly decaying, will be taken up, the
ground laid with cinders, and new hoor
put in. 1t was at one time contemplated TO
change the doors Of the house so that the
horses might be hitched to the apparatus
inside, but the City Engineer finds that it
will not be expedient to make that change.
