hooting Michael Reardan, and was found guilty by the jury of unlawful shooting. His term of confinement in the city jail was fixed at twelve months, and he was fined one dollar. John and James Berry, two lads, were tried for the murder of Henry Ross, on Byrd street, last February. It appears that John Berry, with other boys were amusing themselves by throwing rocks near Ross's house. He came to the front door of his house and told them to stop, whereupon the elder Berry commanded his brohem to stop, whereupon the elder Berry commanded his brother to cut Rouss's liver out, and made some threats of a sanguinary nature towards that individual. The smaller one of the boys then approached Ross and cut him in the side with a pen-knife. Several months afterwards he died the prosecution claimed, of the wounds inflicted on the occasion. The jury acquitted them of the charge of murder, and they were remanded to jail, to be brought before the Mayor on the charge of unlawful stabbing.
