COURT PROCEEDINGS.

Adjournment Until MOndDy Nert.
Court opened at 10 o'clock Judges Woot
ten and Houston on the bench. The Petit
Jury list was then called. The Court then
took up the case of State VS.. Robert Har-
ris-negro Assault and battery upon Thos.
Empson, with intent to kill. Attorney
General Pennington for State, ]. H. Rod,
ncy, for defense.
The evidence for the State showed that
about O'Clock on the night of March 1ltb,
1876, near Markwell's Hotel at Middletown,
Harris royokedly drew pistol on Emp
son, and lred two shots at him, one Of
which went through his clothes and the
powder of the other burnt his face. The
shooting was done in the open street and in
the direction of number of people. One
of the bullets went through the hotel win
dow and passed through the sitting room
and on till it struck the billiard room wall
Eight or ten persons were in these rooms at
the time, and sorac of them had narrow
escape from being struck. The defense
showed that on that evening some one had
struck Harris just previous to the shooting,
but failed to connect Empson as the man.
The jury found him guilty, and he was sen
fenced to fine If 81 900 and costs, and two
years and six months imprisonment.
The following cases were continued TILL
next term.
State VS. John NJ. Traverse-charged with
Larceny.
State VS. Daniel Collins-charged with as
sault and battery
State VS. Thomas F. Hyde-breaking in
house with the intent to rob.
State VS. Thos. B. Hauser-charged with

| of Daniel Collins. are in Jail suffering for

| victed this term.
State VS.. Edward Frarcis-assault upon
Mrs. Seares, with the intent to commit
rape. This case was called up, and the de-
| tendant who was out on bail failed to ap-
pear. The crier called him and his Sc
curity, j. Marsh Harlan, and both failing
TO make answer, their bond was forfeited.

mistake. In any event new prisons
will be necessary. With those already
in, and those going in because Of de-

The Masonic Supper.-We had

| Inv
room barely to mention the supper got
ten up by the Masons on the occasion
of the installation of officers, in our
last issue. The basement Of the Con-
gregational Church was placed at the
disposal of the brothers" together
with all the appurtenances belonging
to the kitchen. The supper was pre-
pared under the immediate supervision
of the Stewards, Bros Morrill, and
Warner, who did their work well,
The wives of ali the members OF Lodge
No. 12S were invited to furnish a
small modicum of edibles, and by SO
doing. with copious quantities OF oys-
tiers each as big as side saddle, the
supper was made perfect success
The tables were spread as for feast
for Kings suite. After the installa-
tory ceremonies were concluded at the
Lodge, all repaired to the basement
where were gathered the wives and
sweethearts and mothers-in-law and
visitors, and sociality reigned supreme.
We never heard more talking at a
prayer-meeting. Everybody was hap
DIV. What with singing and chatti ng
and laughter an hour or two was Will
ed away, when the announcement that
the feast was prepared seemed to awak-
en- the throng to the fact that some
body was an hungered. We looked
about over the assembly. There was
Chas. Slocum, and Doc. Witter, and
Bro. Nash, and Bro. Jones, and kro-
mer, who had not allowed themselves
to taste of food since Christmas in an
ticipation of this supper. They look
ed thin-attenuated. They had a sort
of lightning rod appearance which
tended to create sympathy, and make
more room for the multitude. The
Stewards had done wisely in inveighling
Bro Grace to sojourn day or two at
the Point, and an arrangement was
made by which Bro. Doc. Witter was
called out to see a patient after he had
put away six copious plates of unadorn-
ed bivalves. The tenets of the order
oblige brother to look after the best
interests Of all the brothers, and in
this instance they were never more
faithful. We, as is our wont ate a
few-very few, and then we ate few
more. We observed that others ex-
ercised like discretion, which is Ma
sonic
The hour Of 1870 found all well
provided for, and after the rendering
Of few choice ballads and congratu-
latlons all around that all were alive,
the party broke up all agreeing that a
good time had been enjoyed. A more
pleasant and wholly agreeable enter
tainment VIC think we never before en-
joyed in our city. The Stewards are
entitled to the thanks of the Order
for the generous manner in which they
provided for the stomachic wants of
the fraternity.

rain pounded down as do the waters at

mud-mud but in nowise were
the ladies of the society discouraged.
They had provided for good time,
and they were bound to have it. Am
pie tables were prepared, and viands
IN unlimited quantities were spread
thereon. As is customary with our
Catholic friends the eight fantastic
toe" was skipped, and we hear of very
few who skipped note. 1t was a

not pecuniarily, a profitable festival.

$3.50 dollars. We hope another time
the weather may be more propltious.
