POLICE COURT.
A larceny Ca.e-SeveraI Drunk.

A larceny Case-Seversi Drunk
Kate Murray, a woman whose name
often appears on the police record, wal
arraigned on the charge of the larceny
Of a shawl from Jane Hicks, colored
From the evidence given it appears
that the shawl did not belong to Jane
but had been loaned to her. As Kate
had worn the shawl on several occa-
sisns and returned it, his honor in
formed her that she must be careful,
that while he was not fully satisfied
that she stole the shawl yet it was
right on the verge Of larceny, and he
therefore did not believe it worth
while to send the case to Court. Kate
was discharged.
One drunk completed the hearings
last evening.
At the hearings this morning young
man who says his name is William
John Wiley was arraigned on the charge
of being drunk. The prisoner pleaded
hard to get of, stating that he would
not remain in this town but would
start at oncs for Philadelphia, and re-
turn back TO the old country. Officer
Chambers testified that he arrested the
man yesterday afternoon on Madison
street, very drunk. William replied
that he guessed he had kind of q fit
and could rot get up. The Mayor re-
piled that he believed IL was drunken
6t. The prisoner thought 1t was
drunken fit or something else. Will
liam was fined so cents and costs.

it would be good time to pay visit

About ten o'clock they began to ar

while the kitchen presented a sight
wonderful to behold, and as inviting
and attractive to lovers of goNd living
as could be desired by any reasSnable
person.-Chickens, ham, beef, pies,
cakes, jellies, honey, pickles, preserved
fruits, nc.

might say very enviable frame of

better than gold or silver. Neither was
the material things neglected for they
left behind them evidence of their
kindness and appreciation in enough
of provisions to last for many days.
The finances also came up finely so
that the prospect is very good that by
