Iu the Mayor's Court yesterday morning, before Hie Honor Mayor Andereon, there were a number of cue* disposed of. The first was that of a man charged with selling liquor on Sundays, therein violating city ordi nances. This case was continued on account of the absence of a witness, who was reported to be down tho river. The captain of a schooner was charged with vio lating city ordinance in relation to iiiarh.^Hn|, coal from his \ easel without having the necessary tarpau lins attached. The captain contended that no coal was dropped in the river, but might have dropped through the planking on the wharf, as it was broken. The defendant also stated that the Harbor Master had told him it was fixed as well as it could be, but that gentleman being produced stated that he gave the cap tain a copy of the Harbor Master’s rules, and that he did not tell him that the gangway was as well protected as It might be. The Mayor Baid that the captain had offered no reasonable excuse for not doing his duty iu this instance and fined him in the sum of $25. A woman was charged with violation of city ordi Dances iu selling goods in the market without a li cense. The policemen testified that she was selling goods on Saturday in the market when she paid him the market fee, and he told her she could not sell without a license. Shd came hack ou Monday morn ing when he arrested her. The defendant in answer to a question stated that she kept a store and paid her license and went o the market to dispose of some eggs and potatoes ; that she was not a huckster. His Honor then told the policeman he had no right to take the market fee from the woman. The policeman said that the clerk of the market was busy aud had directed him to collect the teus. Mayor Anderson then dismissed the case and told an officer to see tlie clerk aud Inquire into the matter. A man named Murphy was charged with vending goods without a license, contrary to ordinance. The officer testified that he found him with a shawl and an oil cloth table cover, offering them for sale and when he asked him if he had a license, the accused replied that it was • ‘ none of his d—d business, ben arrested him. Richard had been befere His Honor once before, aud on his promise te leave the city was let off, and the Mayor asked him why he had not gone. He said that his friends (naming several of them and assuring His Honor that he was acquainted with them) were about raising funds to send him to New York, and that he thought he might sell these artieles to procure some money for his im mediate wants; but if he would only let him go this time ho would be sure to leave town immediately and never be seen in court again. His Honor having no faith in his protestations, ordered him to be confined for thirty days in jail. A man named Roberts was arraigned on the charge of being a deserter from the revenue cutter Nanse mond. He said that he was not a deserter; that he had been discharged some two months since and had been running on one of the boats in the river; that ha had a mothar and family to support in South Carolina; and that his father had been killed at the battle of Chieka- rnauga, and ho was the only support of the family. Ilia Honor ordered him to be held until the arrival of the cutter and then to be handed over to tile officers. A man named Robinson was charged with driving a wagon through tlie rows of trees on South Broad street, said wagon having no badge an it. His Honor fined the defendant three dollars for driving between the trees and ordered an officer to enquire into the fact of the wagon being without a badge. Tl»c Case of Tow. The case of Henry Tow, who recently shot and killed a man named Oluue, and was acquitted by the verdict of the coroner’s jury but subsequently re arrested by the military authorities, will be brought up for examination before His Honor Mayor Anderson this morning. Shortly after the second arrest of Tow, Mayor Anderson, iu au interview with Col. Kimball, commanding the District, expressed a desire to he permitted to bring him to trial by the proper civil au thorities through the usual course of proceedings. Upon communicating by telegraph with Gen. Bran- nan at Augusta, Col. Kimball was instructed to turn the prisoner over to the civil authorities. Col. Kim ball at once notified Mayor Andersou that the person of Tow would be given iuto his custody at such time as he migh appoint, iu response to which His Honor addressed to Col. Kimball the following letter: Match's Office, Savannah, March 15, 18U6. Col. Wm. K. Kimball, Commanding, *vc., Colonel : Yours of this date is at hand, consenting to turn over to the civil authorities for trial of one Henry Tow, for tlie offence of murder. The alleged offence having been committed in Savannah, the only civil tribunal having jurisdiction is the Superior Court of Chatham county, the next session of which will commence ou the Second Monday in May, but by the code of Georgia the Mayor of Savauuah is vested with the powers of a justice of tho peace, within the city, to suppress riots, etc., arrest, confine, or bind over offenders against the laws of the State, to answer for such offences before the proper tribunal. With your permission, I suggest that Tow be turned over to the -Mayor for examination on Saturday morning next, 17th lust., at eleven o'clock, when the proper course for bringing the ease to a speedy trial can be determined. It shall be my business to see that the prosecution is carried on. I need hurdly assure you that the citizens of Savannah are indignant at the conduct of Tow. and are by no means disposed to screen what so far seems to them to have been a great outrage committed by bim; or to say that it would be a source of mortifica tion to them if it be for a moment supposed that the civil authority is not disposed aud ready to vindicate the laws of peace and good order. Very respectfully your obedient servant, Kdwaiui c, Andekson, Mayor. It will be observed that the Mayor acts as an ex Officio Justieo-of-tlie-peace in the matter, and the promptitude and energy which he lias displayed in providing for the meteing out of justice by the civil authorities and the vindication of peace and order in the community will commend itself to every citizen.
