Mayor's Court, October 15th. --Margaret Sullivan, a white female, was called to answer the charge of getting drunk on Tuesday, and while in the vicinity of the Old Market, and in hearing of Officer Baptist, using language shocking for its grossness and profanity. Mrs. Sullivan attempted to excuse herself by saying it was only a little bit of jollification she had indulged in prior to a trip she proposed making to North Carolina the next day.

Daniel Euffin, the negro charged with the larceny of Beverly Robinson's coat, and Tom Wright's gold ring, was proved guilty of sequestering an article of the latter description, belonging to a white man, accidentally left in a bath tub of which Dan had the charge, and he was ordered twenty lashes. The charge about stealing the coat was not susceptible of proof and was dismissed.

Owens, a cute tradesman, deemed the affair one of agreement between the parties and caused Myers to be arrested. Of course Myers, according to his own account, did not know anybody who followed him in the store. He exhibited a pass signed Walker Lucas, aid to General Winder, entitling him to walk the city, which the Mayor said was of no account.
