Placards appeared in the windows OF
most Of the retail houses in town this morn
ing announcing that the stores would close
at 6 O'Clock until September 1st, except on
Saturdays.
This step meets with the approval Of
nearly all business men. and shows gen.
erosity on the part of those who have
agreed to give their employees spare hour
in the afternoon, which will be certain to
gain them patronage. We may complain
in gloomy moments that the public fails to
notice acLs OF this character, but naturally
there is a disposition on the part OF the
good people OF Richmond generally to see
fair play, and we predict that in less than
one week those merchants who think they
can capture a late dollar by trapping it in
the dark will find that it is the early bird
only who gets away with the prize. A list
OF merchants who close at will be found
in another column. Doubtless purchasers
will make point of finding the merchants
themselves before o'clock, and those who
keep open later will find themselves wanting.

HABEAS CORPUS CASE OF CLARENC
WEST-IHE Boy REMANDED TO THE AsY-
LuM.-On Saturday morning the hd0eaS cor
lJuS case OF young West was tried by Judge
Christian Of the Hastings Court. The boy
Clarence West appeared in court with his
counsel. The writ was sworn out by DR..
W. W. Parker, the president of the Male
Orphan Asylum, TO regain the custody OF
the boy from his mother, who refused to
deliver him up, on account OF maltreatment
and unnecessary severity OF punishment in
tiic;ed on her son. Counsel, in his argu-
lAent to the court, commented on the man.
ner in which the boy had been treated.
One lady (NrS. Mayo testified that
she had seen marks upon the boy
that showed brutal - punishment,
such as none but severe and cruel master
would have inflicted upon a negro boy in
slave times. This was corroborated by Mr..
Mayo and others. In reply to the attack on
lhe boys character, counsel read note
from Mr.. Carr. his Sunday-school teacher,
speaking OF him in the highest terms as a
polite, obedient, and remarkably good boy.
IN warm terms Of commentator.
The Judge said that while he thought it
better for the boys interest that he should
he renanded TO the asylum, yet it was evil
ptnt that there was mismanagement-too
many masters and mistresses-that no one
had right to punish Il boy but Mr. Gill,
and admonished him not to give any Cause
lor future complaint. He also recommend
cd that the boy be given to Mr.. Flournoy,
Il gentleman selected by his mother.

THE CENTENARY EXCUEsIOS.-On Thurs
day next the ladies Of the Centenary Meth
odist Episcopal church will make their eX-
cursion to Old Point. Norfolk, and Ports
mouth. They are using every endeavor to
make this one OF the most delightful trips
they have ever gotten up. At Old Point

enliven the evening for those who stop at
the Hygeia Hotel. A special committee OF
ladies has been appointed to chaperon those
who may not have escorts and are desirous
Of going. 49,,

sufficient experience in such matters to
make them perfectly au fatt in their man
agement, and those who participate in this .s
one may feel sure that nothing will be left
undone to insure their comfort.
