Tho prosecution in the esse against
Major 0. P. McCalls, accused of cheating
and swindling, was resumed yesterday
before Justice Butt
Mr. K. L. Jones, Cashier of tlie Uoor
gia National Bank testified that McCalls
had done bnsincas with his bank for three
or four mouths, and that he hud always
found him correct, and detected nothing
ir in his dealings. His bank book
was produced, with s lot of paid checks,
which Mr. Jones rend, and stated that
they had been paid out of money receiv
ed on account of McCalln.
G. B. Chamberlin testified that J. A.
Thibodeau gave him a claim of five hun
dred and twenty-five dollars for back pay
due him against the State Road, and told
Chamberlin to satisfy himself for the
amount he (Thibodeau) owed him, and
signed the transfer and receipt in full.—
Witness look the claim and govo it to
George P. Burnett for him to get it pass
ed by the proper officers. Tho account
was signed by all the proper officials of
of tho rood, including the Superintend
ent.
About this time Barnett left for Wash
ing city, and instructed McCulla to do
the best he could with the claim. If he
collected it, tc pay over to Chamberlin
8175, and reserve the balance. The
amount was collected by McCalls. Cham
berlin VOS paid bis claim, and 8350 still
remuined in McCalla's bauds in trust for
Barnett
Witness testified that all lie wanted was
what Thibodeau owed him, aud when
he had been satisfied of his claim against
Thibodean, he signed tho transfer and
receipt in full, just ns Thibodeau bad
done.
J. A. Thibodean testified that the
Western and Atlantio Railroad owed
him 8525 for extra services. That he
owed Chamberlin a claim of nearly or
quite $200. That, thinking his claim
against the road might not be signed up
and passed upon by the Commission to
settle claims against the rood, and being
anxious to pay Chamberlin, be gave him
this claim, aud receipted it in fall, by an
endorsement. That the claim was just,
and lie bad rendered service to tho road
to that amount, aud that if the claim had
been lost or burnt up, or the proceeds
divided between any number of men the
State would not have been defrauded
out of a single oent.
Georgo P. Burnett testified that Chum,
berlin made a proposition to him to
press tho matter through. That nil be
wanted, was ulmt was coming to him,
(8175,) and all would be satisfactory.
Ho saw Blodgett, and be bud signed it.
Ho got tho claim through, mid left it
with McCatla. That ho told McCulla ho
had bought tho claim conditionally, aud
when it was approved to pay over 8350
to himself, and the balance to Chamber-
liu. There was no division, and never
paid MeCalla one cent, nnd that gentle
man never received a cent in considera
tion of that transaction. Was not pres
ent when MeCalla puid Chamberlin.
MeCalla never actually paid me ouo cent
in money. Thinks bo paid a board bill
for me and advanced some money to my
wife during my absence, and in July
gave him a check for about $140.
By Col. Farrow—Did yon and MeCalla
evor have a division of the 8325 ?
Muj. Bumott—No, sir. I told Mnj.
McCalln, on my leaving for Washington,
to do the beet be oould—pay Chamber
lin aud keep the balauee until my return,
and tbs whole matter remains to-ilny un
settled.
The counsel for the prosecution then
wanted to use some witnesses who wore
not present, and suggested an adjourn
ment of tho trial until 8 o'clock thus
morning, whiuh was agreed to, mid tlie
Court adjourned.
The above is a condensed report of the
proceedings. Considerable outside spar
ring was indulged in, by the oounsel on
both sides, but is not deemed of sufficient
importance to report.

MAYOR’S COURT—SATURDAY.
Fur Saturday an unusual crowd of
penitents came forward to receive the
blessing. The first case called was
ED. H AKTSFIELD,
a colored negro, whom, report said, had
been pro fun o and disorderly, but os “re
port” failed to make out a case, he was
dismissed.
ED. DAVIS
is a frequent visitor to the Coart, and
thongh young in years, he is old in sin.
It has been only a short time since he
left the chain-gang. He got off with ten
and costs, with a promise of a whole
year the next time he was up.
CliAJiLES LUCK IE
is first lieutenant in the rock brigade.—
He paid one dollar and costs, and con
sidered himself luckie at that.
THE JENKINSES
came in for a blessing. J. D. of tliat
family belonged to the circus, and so far
forgot himself that he got drunk during
the performances and insutled some gen
tleman. Jenkins gave out complimen
tary tickets to the amount of ten dollars.
“A LITTLE KOBE GRAPE.”
Amanda Bragg, a querrelous, talking
old woman, was arrested and lockd np
for fighting and quarreling with Mrs.
Burt. From all accounts Mrs. Bragg is
a terrible old vixen. She talked, talked,
talked, until the cul interim had to ask
her if that was all. She poured out her
grievances to tho Court in torrents, and
not until she was threatened with im
prisonment for contempt did she cease
her babbling. She paid five dollars and
costs.
MRS. BURT
was the other female for whom Amanda
Bragg had a dislike. The Burt exhibited
sundry wounds which the Bragg had in
dicted, and during the reoitation of the
wrongs which bad been heaped upon her,
she grew livid with excitement, and elo
quent in her own [cause. She was not a
fighting woman, nor was she a bad wo
man, but when her domain was invaded
by a woman like the Bragg, who had the
ungodliest tongue she ever heard, she
took up her hatchet, and giviug the war
w hoop, was going to tomahawk her in
the most approved style. The Bragg had
knocked her down, and she “ris” fight
ing. She asked the Court to put itself in
her place, and see what it would do. The
Court thought it would do pretty much
as the speaker said she did, and he dis
missed her caso upon the payment of
costs.
NIGGER FIGHT.
Jerry Walker and Henry Speer, two
little niggers had been fighting on the
streets, one of them had his neck all
bandaged and tied up as if badly wound-
od, but upon examination, nothing was
found tho matter with him. They each
paid one dollar and costs.
a. n. KINO
was King bee at tho circus, aud when told
to behave “hisself,” ho replied, “Go to
h—1.” This invitation did not please a
policeman, and King was enthroned for
the night on a calabooso spring bottom
chair. For this luxury he paid the city
tho next morning $5.
J. F. WRIGHT
got right drunk Friday night, and was
marched right off to the lock-up, and
when tho Mayor fined him fivo dollars,
Wright said—“correct.”
whafling an imprudent negro woman,
who persisted In insulting him.
MAT ROGERS
belonged to the Roger family, and from
her appearance was one of the first cut
of that numerous tribe. She was drunk
and disorderly, and cursed and kicked up
a terrible row. To all of which Mattie
swore solemnly she was not guilty.—
About fifteen witnesses swore exactly to
the opposite, and the Court "knew. Ten
and costs.
MATILDA STOKES
was tho lady with whom Fanny Talbot
had the riot with over a fellow at the balL
His name was Jerry, and about as hard a
looking case as is in the city. The Court
didn’t see why two women should be
flghtiug over such a looking chap as Jerry
was. He knew several better looking
men in town, and unmarried, too. He
gave Matilda a long lecture on ball eti
quette, and how she onght to conduct
herself at snch places. It was a firstrate
lesson, and he charged ten dollars for in
structing her.
LIZZIE MOSELY
was mixed up in the ball affair too. But
as she exhibited a better claim to Jerry
than any of the others, her caso was dis
missed, aud Jerry got a sound lecture on
the evils attending polygamy.
THE ORIGINAL BILL JONES
offered no excuse for being on a Saturday
night's drunk. He owned up to it, aud
as he had uot exactly acted out the full
ness of his name by creating a disturb
ance, he made the round trix> at half fare.
Several continued cases were put off
till this morning.
Fourth Ward Democratic Meeting.
An enthusiastic meeting was held at
the Medical College, on Saturday night,
for the purpose of organizing the Fourth
Ward Democratic Club.
Judge D;.u. Pittman was called to the
chair, and Miles Turpin requested to act
as Secretary.

OLD TEN AND COSTS HAS COME TO TOWN.
As soon as it was whispered around
that the Mayor had returned on'tho Sun
day morning's train, from his Baltimore
excursion, the “melisli" began to hide
out, for they knew their time was coming.
Consequently the array of dead beats on
hand yesterday morning was not so large
by several as is [usual on Monday. The
Mayor came smiling into Court; looking
precisely like a gentleman from Balti
more. He looked youuger than he did
when he left, and his spirits were of the
first quality. This, in a measure, is ac
counted for by tbe effects of those fat,
luscious oysters tor which the Monu-
meutal City is noted. Oysters, fresh, on
tho half shell, will make a fellow feel
spry, and after embracing Fat Fitxgib-
bona, Jubnsen, and throwing a killing
smilo at a group of calico over in the
oorner, he shook his fist at the reporters
snd called up
JAMES D RISK ILL,
who was charged with being drunk aud
disturbing the citizens. It was proven
tliat Jimmie was too drunk to sit in his
own house, and he fell out of the door.
He crawled to a neighbor's door and pro
posed to tbe landlady to allow him to
help her keep house while her husband
was absent. At this the indignant lady
nailed the police, and Driskill was hauled
off. Ho offered as an excuse that he
knew he was not guilty, because he was
too drank to more. The inevitable 81U
and costs was his portion.
THE SMITHS
were represented this morning by T. M.,
who ahriled out $10 and costs for letting
his tongno loose and saying things for
which he felt sorry.
FANNY TALBOT
n something of a belle in her line. She
sttends all the negro balls in the city, and
ia generally the cock of the walk. If she
sees a fellow she wants to dance
with deliberately walks up to him and
“eoroages” the other gal awsy. Sho tried
that little gome on Tilda Stokes, but Til
wonld’nt scronge abit, nor would the fel
low dance with her. This so exasperated
Fanny that sho knocked Tilda flat on tho
floor, and galled the man s d—n long-
legged son of a female terrier. As she
come ont of this fuss with s black which
she could not explain sway, she got 85
credit and 85 debit, with costs.

Bloilgelt Trial Postponed.
When tho Court met yesterday, Col.
Farrow arose aud moved thnt the case be
continued until Saturday morning.
Mnj. Hargrove then stated to tho
Court thal he did not recognize Attorney
General Farrow in the prosecution of
Foster Blodgett; however, upon con
ference, it was agreed among the counsel
to continue the case until Saturday, with
tho consent of the Court.
Col. Farrow arose again aud retorted
saying, whether or not, he was recogniz
ed by Maj. Hargrove in the prosecution,
it bocame him as Attorney General to
assist, and nothing could deter him from
his duty. The question, ho said, came
within the jurisdiction of the Court.
The Court then continued the case
until Saturday moraiDg next at 10

Ulilors Sun: The clauso in tlie pub
lished regulations in our premium list
relative to entries reads, “ For articles
completing for premiums each 82 00.”
The public will please notice that the
following is the proper construction of
the above clause:
In either department 82 00 pays for as
many entries as the exhibitor may wish
to make. But 82 00 entitles the exhibi
tor to compete for premiums in one de
partment only.
To illustrate: Auy one paying to ex
hibit in tbe department of live stock
would pay 82 00 additional to enter an
article for a premium in the department
of Manufactured nrticlee. Very respect
fully Sam’l A Echols, Secretary.
