Court Notes.

. In the City court yesterday morning Sher- man J. Guernsey and Nelson c. Welton, of Bethany, were arraigned on a charge of sell ing the meat of diseased COW to c. A. Way1inger, of the firm of Frank Vogt & Go. of this city. Attorney John Q'Neil, of Water bury, appeared for the defense. He stated that he would admit that the COW which the State claimed was diseased was owned, butch cred and sold by his client. He only denied that the animal was diseased. James Rogers, George L. Brownson, Elmer Weed, c. P. Hotchkiss, James Hubbell, Henry Frisbie, Patrick Keefe, Wilbur Lounsbury and Charles Austin, all of Bethany and more or less en- gagged in the farming business, testified to having seen the COW in question and that the animal ,vas afflicted with a sore on her hind onartars Some of the witnesses thought that it was a cancer; othols inclined to the belief that it was a bloody wart.
 The defense called several witnesses, who stated that they thought the sore on the COW was simply bloody wart. Bloody warts, in the opinion of these witnesses, do not damage the flesh of creature. Wslton was placed on the stand next, and he stated that when he helped Guernsey kill the COW he did not notice that there was anything the mat ter with her. He ate portion of the heart, he said, as did others. Guernsey himself stated that the COW had been affected with bloody Wart

magnitude of their debts has become

from following in the same track OF
beaten gold. The city of Auckland re-

although it certainly owed double that
amount, e137, 800 1857 500 were ten

full amount was allotted This was not

pality of about $4,000 inhabitants,

Suspected Burglars.

On Sunday afternoon a white man, a
rather suspicious looking character, was
seen prowling around on the street in
rear of Hon. Sam Parker's residence, on
King street. Some natives noticed him
hanging horse shoe on gate leading
to the street. This led to the impression
that he intended making visit to the
house at night, and a close watch was
kept. However, he was not seen around
that night. Last evening, about half
past O'Clock, two men were seen on
the grounds by the native in charge. He
Immediately went over to Mr.. Hiram's
residence near by and telephoned the
fact to the Police Station. Horace
Crabbe, the Station House Keeper,
quickly dispatched two policemen to the
spot but after long and close search
they were unable to find any trace OF the
two men. Mr. Hiram, who returned
from town in his brake about the time
the police were telephoned for, states
that he passed two men on Piikoi street,
directly opposite the residence of Mr..
Justice Preston. They were attired in
long overcoats, and by the light OF his
lamps he saw that they were white men.
