We learn from Mr. Rogers, of this oily,
who wee at Lawrenoevilla night before
last, that the Coart Houao at that place,
together with all the Oounty Records,
wen destroyed. The fire occurred
about 1 o'clock, and before the town was
aroused it bad-made such beau]way that
it wav impossible to save anything of
value.
This was undoubtedly the act of an
incendiary. A man was arrested on
suspicion. He was under bond to answer
for some criminal offense. He had a box
of matches an£ a pistol on bis perso^
Several men left town on horseback os
Boon as the alarm was given, and went
off shouting and firing off pistols. It is
believed that they are the gang which
did the work.
The Superior Court was to have open

would have been brought up.
Considerable excitement prevails, and
strong efforts will be made to capture

OBOltOZ JAMES
plead guilty, and said he was slightly in
ebriated. He had such an honest, straight
forward look about him that he was let
off with $6 and costa.
SKVCUIi or THU SMITHS,
including Amos and William, were up for
raising old Harry—all about a woman.
Amos had requested William to stay away
from this woman’s house, and when Wil
liam paid no attention to Amos’ request
and went there on Saturday evening,
Amos proposed to put a sky-light in him
with a big stick. Willie cursed out the
whole plantation—woman and all. He
bad been engaged to many the woman
and she had aoted so “skanderlusly" he
broke it oft. She cried and took on over
it and begged him to come back, and he
said to the Mayor—
I found her thu* one a’ternoon,
And I wu eore astonished.
••Whet ie the matter, liauuaL f Hay I

Your mother sick? Or father dead?
Your chickeua got the cholera?

That lan't worth a dollar, eh?'*

Ucr tear* but aript tho faeter. ,
I asked her if ahe’d loot her knife—
If any one had aaeet her—
If ehe wae elck—or waen’t well—
And more lntorrygaahlna;
She ahook her head and on she went
With her wild lementashin*.
But William knew that the cause of the
wild lamentations, whb, she wasu’t able
to run two husbands at one and the some
time. Amos was fined five and costs, and
William for his abnndnte use of cuss
words, paid ten and costs.
JOHN JETT
was accused of selling whiskey in less
quantities titan one quart, without the
necessary license, which could not be
proved, and the case was dismissed.
BATTLE BBOWN
went to battle with Jennie Smith. He
sent Jennie a love letter, the purport of
which wits for her to take a walk with him,
and wound up tho note with
‘•The eweoteet thing in life.
Which no one cau aay nay.
On a Saturday afternoon,
la waulklog down Broadway*'—
Jennie couldn't sec it with Battle by
her aide, and sent him a flat rofusial; so
wheu he met her that eveniDg he procedcd
to choke her a little for refusing and then
cursed her blue. Battle got €25 and
costs for bis bravery.
JOHN DODO INS
was accused of trying to dodge tbo mu
nicipal law in selling in less quantities
than one quart. Tho testimony was
given in by an old man, and sounded
so much liko the old title of “Cap’ll Goe,
he gin a treat, ” that tho Court got wearied
out and told Dodgins to dodge out tho
door and taku himself homo.
THOMAS F. LACKEY
was up for tlio same offence. The same
old spectacled man and his son wero up
as witnesses. Wheu he commenced the
“Cap'n Gee” talc over, the Court thought
he and bis son lmd tried to drink up nil
tlio whisky in tho neighborhood, and as
ho had failed thus fur to make out a case,
he wont under on this; tho evidence was
lacking, and Lackey left like lightning.
FHBDKHICK ULACKSTOCK
was an old man, who had been hauled up
for doing just like any other man would
havo dono under the circumstances. One
of the hundreds of careless hackmen ran
his horse nearly over tho old man while
he was crossing tho street, and punohed
him in the sido with the end of a shaft.
The old gentleman very naturally reached
after a rock with which to put a head on
the driver, when a policeman took hold
of him. The old fellow, indignant, jerked
looso from the officer, and proposed to
parloy. For this ho was fined tho costs.
AMK1U0UH VBsrUCIUS HUTCHENS
was black and tan, and when another
negro called him a d—u liar, lie gave him
a very severe chunk under the chiu.—
Discovering that tbo other negro had a
pistol, lie attempted to wrench it out of
his {locket, and succeeded. Tho negro
went for n rock, and while lio was stoop
ing over Americus took tho pistol and
hit him a blow on tho bock of tlio head
cutting through tho skin, and shattering
tlio pistol to piocos. He was docked for
ton dollars and costa.
ED. HKABN
bad hearn of a fight between two fellows,
and when lie repeated the results to
Americus Hutchens, that gentleman dis
puted it, whereupon Ed. gave the lie,
whioh resulted as above, with a fine and
costa attached.
F. M. IUBANK8
pleaded guilty to being drunk and dis
orderly, and got off with the usual 810
and oosts.
B. W. ULACKDUBN
was up for bieng drunk and disorderly.
Ha was too drunk to know where ho was
or what be wae doing; this much he did
know, and he was supposed to be only
plain drnnk, which is worth 85.
mat. m'abdlk
is the gayost boy on the canal Mat
made a grand mistake Saturday night—
He accidentally cursed the wrong man in
the dark. Mat thought it was an ac
quaintance, was the reason he used the
familiar expressions. The darkly abused
party had Mat arrested, and the Court
filled him 85 and coats, to break him from
the ugly habit of swearing and drinking
mean whisky.
After a short secret session the Court
took its flight .
for every-day working frocks. Two of
them claimed the same husband, and the
third was one of the professional wit
nesses who can be seen almost any morn
ing before the Mayor in some capacity.
The Court listened long and patiently to
the tales of wrongs each one hod memo
rized, and then opened his battery. He
thought in their eases that wbat men
oarn their wives won’t save. He made one
pay the costs in her case, and the other
one ho charged 85 and costs.
“OENTLY THE DEWS AilE o'EB ME STEAL

was what a celebrated Dentist of this city
said on Friday evening as Jennie Floyd,
a little negro girl, threw a basin of warm
water from the second floor window, and
re-baptizing onr Doctor. It made him
awful mad (and it will moke anybody so)
to have liia new hat aDd good clothes
soaked by the carelessness of a negro in
throwing slops on the sidewalks. The
girl did not know any one was passing,
or that it was against the law. His Honor
hod rather find tlio person who put her
there to clean up without proper instruc
tions than to panish the girl. He thought
it would be nearer doing right. He let
her pay the costs, with a small lecture.
WILLIAM HABHI8,
colored, was drunk and riding a tall
horse Friday evening. He stays in a
butcher shop, and says a little boy bought
beef and broagbt it buck, sayiDg it waa
tough; that he conld not make it tender,
and asked the Court if it could. The
Court could not This was foreign to
the subject, and William, after flounder

his debauch of the previous evening.—
Only 810 and costs.

Friday evening on horseback and under

than liis horse could tote. He began
riding fast and foster down WhiteliaU
street, never looking nor caring whether
lie was ou tliu sidewalks or not. He ran
into two policemen, who took him to the
lock up. The next morning he wus full.
He saluted the Court in true military
style, and attempted to explain how it

plained for him. and the Sergeant was ex-
plained out of 810.

for sweariDg a chum of his into the chain

LEVI WALLACE
borrowed one quarter from another ne

Tke Hap To-NI*ht.
To-night inaugurates, proper, the first
of a series of those delightful Hops, for
whioh the Kimball House and Professor
Robinson have become so noted. These
entertainments are given strictly for the
benefit of the gnests and their friends.
This arrangement secures to those who
may attend the society of the very best
people of the city, and none others.—
The doors are not open to any one who
may choose to purchase a ticket, but they
most first secure an invitation before that
privilege is granted them. This is a
happy stroke of the Proprietors to pre
vent the gnests of their House from be
ing intruded upon by strangers and per
sons of questionable social standing.
To-night promises to be a grand affair.
