Kearney, who had expected to get Oh VITA

the case to the Supreme court.
LArxR-Kearncy received his sentence In
silence, but his features expressed the utmost
surprise and indignation. He had previously
stated that he expected to get Oh with .
small fine and after leaving the court room
freely expressed his anger aud chaerin, de-
nouncing the penalty as outrageous. and say

neglected to demand jury trial, and having
no recourse in that direction, at once hled .
appeal to the Superior court. Expressions Of

About eight o'clock Monday evening, as
Mr.. Sewell Fuller, who resides on Chestnut
ST., was driving up from Hallowell, and when
on the Plains he saw team approaching at
a rapid gait, with two young men on board.
Mr.. Fuller turned to one side to give them a
passage; but, either owing to his not being
quick enough or the horse attached to the
other carriage, being unmanageable, the two
vehicles collded. The young men were
thrown out; their horse cleared himself from
the wagon. and ran towards Hallowell at a
rapid pace. Mr.. Fuller was thrown out by
the shock, and his shoulder injured quite bad
": but his wife, who was with him at the
time, fortunately escape unhurt. Mr.. Full
ler's horse also cleared himself, and ran away.
The wheel shaft, and part of harness were
broken. One of the young fellows gave his
name as Gardner, and said that he was res
ident of Gardiner.

humpty Dumpty, the ever fresh and well

glory in Granite Hall, on Monday evening
next by Tony Denier's inimitable troupe.
speaking of their rendition of this perenni-
"ily popular pantomime, the "Daily True
American" of Trenton, n. j., says: "The
performance at Taylor Opera House, last
evening. was one of the best pantomime per-
'ormances we have seen for years. 1t was
'humpty Dumpty,' the late lamented Geo.
Ia Foxs great success, and it was equally as
successful in the hands Of Geo. IL. Adams
Nufmaldi, as clown. In many respects MIR.
"dams is superior to Fox, being younger
more agile. and has greater control OF his
FEATURES. Many new tricks and scenes were
Presented, which brought down the house
Inc company is a first-class one, the mem-
oers being well up in their parts. The
variety entertainment called 'Humpty's Ma
'eidoscope,' is unexceptionally fine, and re-
eeived warm applause from the large audi
ence. Mr.. Denier. whose reputation as
Clown is well known, presented Grimaidi with
available gold medal, this year, at Savannah
Ia, in token of his superiority, and, from
MS acting last night, we are constrained to ad-
init that he was entitled to it. Taken alto
gether, Grimaldi is, we believe, the besttrick
cicwn on the American stage, and the per-
iormance is everything that is claimed FOR
it,"
