| DIsoRDERLY CoNDUCT.-It has been the
habit of some parties who come to town,
especially on Saturday evenings, of acting
in o wanton and disorderly manner, by
firing off pistols, &C., apparently for their
own amusement, but causing alarm among
our citizens, the females especially. The
offences have generally been done on their
departure and before getting out of the
town limits. Complaints having been made
frequently by citizens, the Alderman
instructed the police officers to arrest the
parties at the time if possible, or secure
their names. On Saturday April 18th a
numerous party passed down Main ST.,
firing pistols and behaving in a disorderly
manner, but were not known at the time.
The officers afterwards succeeded in getting
the names OF six, for whom q warrant was
issued and brought before Alderman Budd
on Monday last. John Fowler and Millard
Cantwell were each fined one dollar and
cost; Charles Gibbs, (negro) fined So. so and
cost; James Millaway, SIS and cost; Joseph
Woody, Ia boy) was discharged with rep
. rimand. There is no occasion to carry fire
arms in this country, and it is not often
done except by those who have the spirit
of rowdyism in their heads, and it is graft
