A DIsTURBER.

Terrence Flanagan had an audience with
Justice Chopper this morning, on account
of charge which had been preferred
against his good name by his better halt.
The story as told by Mrs. Flanagan is in
substance that Terrence is in the habit of
beating, kicking and threatening TO kill
his wife whenever at suits his manly fancy.
His conduct does not meet with that
hearty approval, on the part of his wife,
which is necessary for domestic bliss and
contentment She is sufficiently unreason-
able to object to his treatment. as she has
become tired ofbeing abused by the partner
of her joys and sorrows. She accordingly
had peace warrant taken out, and Elan
agan had the opportunity, if he so desired,
of proving that he was the pink of hus-
bands, the ideal of sobriety and propriety.
The court held him in $500 bail, and in
default of that sum the prisoner was sen
fenced to serve term of six months in the
county Jail.

THE CHIMES.

Last evening the c. D. Hess Opera Com
pany presented THE Chimes of Normandy
at Harper's theatre to only fair sized
audience. The opera was very creditabiy
rendered, and its Interpretation merited q
much larger audience. A few OF the ar
lists in the cast scored signal success IN
their respective parts. and their efforts were
duly appreciated by those in attendance.
The Gasp0d of Henry c. Peakes, was
the character of the play. He possesses
not only very fine voice, but also enters
into the spirit of the lines, and portrays the
miser in a most artistic and life-like man
ner. His actions after the return of the
Marquis Of Halleroi to claim the castle, was
very clever and merited call before the
curtain which he received after the second
act.
Mark Smith as the Marquis has most
powerful voice He dressed the character
in most exquisite manner, and his vocal
efforts elected frequent applause
The Mgnonette of Miss Adelaide Randall
was not so happy as the male characters.
She gave the musical numbers in a pains
taking, careful manner, but her interpreta-
ton of the part did not excite general en-
thusiasm, as has been the case with the
same character in the hands OF. Emily Mel
vile or Marie Stone
Miss Emma Elsner as Gerndir, present
ed very fine stage presence, but her
vocalizations were not of the highest order

THE GYPSY CASE.

The assault case of Uriah Wharton, who
cut his foster parent with razor, on the
Milan road, on the 5th of the present
month, was taken up yesterday afternoon.
The jury was secured, and all the evidence
submitted, which tended to show that the boy
had good reasons tor assaulting the elder
gypsy, as the cutting was a species of self
defense. Just before the arguments were
commenced, the prosecuting attorney
and the counsel for the defense,
Adair Peasants, had private consultation
and this resulted in Withdrawing the plea
of mot guilty" and substituting therefore
the plea of guilty.
The court stated that he felt there were
many extenusting circumstances in the
case, which would cause him to place the
fine at nominal figure. The court asses
sed fine of 49, but suspended judg
ment on condition that the prisoner would
take his departure. The young gypsy was
very delighted at the turn affairs had
taken, and was shaking hands with his
counsel and the sheriff's force generally.
1t is understood that he took his departure
at a late hour last evening.
