 Judge Martin, of Killingly, holds the Au- gust term of the Superior Court which sits in Bridgeport next Tuesday. In view of the fact that the new jury law does not make the jurors selected under it legal jurymen until on and after September l, the criminal side of the court must of necessity be adjourned until that date to meet the requirements of the law.
 A Bridgeport man refused to eat meat or any other dish containing meat when he was baby of two years, and has held steadfastly to the same platform nearly forty years. His appetite is invariably good-for anything in the way of vegetables, and he has never suf- fered days sickness, but he says with seem- ing sincerity that he believes he would allow himself to starve rather than eat meat.

 In So Manchester Tuesday evening 8 barn belonging to D. F. & H. G. Ingalls, took fire and was totally destroyed, together with 6 fine horse, harness and buggy. No insur- ance. The fire was probably the work of an incendiary, as about 9 o'clock the barn was visited by Mir. Ingalls, and found locked, and when again visited, at the time of the fire, the door was broken open. The fire origi- mated from inside, and every effort to save the horse proved of no avail. This is the sec ond time within year that the Messrs. In- gals have met loss by fire, both by incendi- arism.
 The Hartford Fire Commissioners made 8 close inspection of the new steamer, Wednesday, comparing carefully the machine with the specifications. Then they had another test of the engine, taking it down to the river bank again This time it worked even better than the day before, and sent two streams simultaneously further than it had then sent a single stream. It proved it. self capable of maintaining 120 pounds of steam and at the same time working to full capacity. Action upon the formal accept ance of the engine will be taken as soon as 8 full meeting of the board can be had.

ADishonest Guest.

From the San Francisco Call.
 Mrs. De Long, widow of the late Charles De Long, Minister to Japan, appeared before the Police Judge yesterday to lay claim to an ornamental cup and saucer, which had been stolen from her house during the latter part of last month and which had been recovered from the store of Sam Yuen Mrs. De Long identified by private mark the property, which is of jade, a stone of dark green color, hard, compact, capable of very high polish, and used for ornamental purposes. She tes- tiied that the articles were presented to her husband while he was in Japan, by the Mika- do, seven years ago, and that their value had been estimated at from $500 to $1 200. My China boy" said the lady, told me that the cup and saucer are very valuable. The Chi nese, he said, sincerly believe that if any one is sick and takes medicine from cup of this kind he will be cured as if by magic. He al- so told me that if I should send my son to China with that cup, he could, upon exhibit ing it, obtain anything he desired" :" The la- dy then said that last month man who had been friend of the family in Japan and moved in the best society there, called at her house., announced that he had just returned from Leadville, where he had made great deal of money, soon would sail for Japan, and would esteem it a very great favor if she would let him to be her guest during his stay here, as he would be proud to be able to say when he returned among his friends in Japan that he had been the ''guest in San Francisco of Mrs. De Long," She granted his request, and during his stay he was shown this cup and saucer, praised it, and remarked that of all the valuable pieces of jade he had ever seen this was the largest and most valuable, and, according to his idea of the worth of such articles of bric-a-brac, $500 would be a low price for it. Suddenly, one morning, the guest disappeared without having said any thing about his intention of going, and sub- sequent to his departure the present from the Mikado was missed. An effort to find the guest proved unsuccessful, and all that could be learned was that he had paid his bill at a hotel, and taken his departure for Virginia City. Sam Yuen stated that man, whose description he gave, and which answered that of the man who had been the guest of the widow, called at his store with the proer- ty exhibited, and sold it for four dollars. Yuen stated that he had no objection to an order being made restoring it to Mrs. De Long. Such an order was accordingly made.

In the City Court yesterday morning, Michael Daley was arraigned on charge of drunkenness and resistance to the officer who arrested him. Thomas J. Dillon, who fol lowed the accused into police headquarters, was also arraigned for interfering with the officers while they were arresting Daley. Both were found guilty, Dillon being sent to jail for two months and Daley being fined $1o and costs. After sentence had been pro- nounced Judge Pardes told the policemen in court that hereafter when they made an ar rest and crowd followed them up, interfer- ing to warn them away first, and then if they did not immediately disperse, to single out few of the ringleaders, report their names to the Prosecuting Attorney and have them prosecuted. By such step the court hopes to be able to break up the nuisance of a crowd following up an arrest crowd was only an incentive for the prisoner to resist
