Mayor's Court.
--The following is a summary of the cases which were before the Mayor on Saturday:
Thomas Kane, John Kane, and John Camp, boys, were charged with bathing in the day time in Shockoe Creek, and exposing their persons to citizens in that neighborhood.
Upon the first hearing of this case, His Honor announced his intention to require security for their good behavior; but after reflection reconsidered his decision, and discharged them with an admonition, --The practice of bathing in the city, and in the neighborhood of public places of resort, was one often indulged in by young men and boys, and one which the Mayor said should be put a stop to. He directed his officers to turn their attention particularly to this nuisance, and whenever they caught any person, no matter who he might be, indulging in the luxury in interdicted places, they must be brought before him. "Take their clothes," he said, "if you can't catch them, and let them go home naked."
