Mayor's Court.

--Nothing very special occurred yesterday at this popular resort. The officers of the Court, the Mayor, and a crowd of odoriferous spectators, were present as usual John A. Belvin was fined $5 for allowing the pavement in front of his "block," on 12th street, to remain in a dangerous condition. The pavement is composed of square slabs of slate rock, and, like such modes of transit, is liable to get out of repair very easily.--Wm D Bowman, charged with throwing a brick at Geo. Bailey, private in the Davis Light Dragoons, and thereby causing his death, was arraigned, but the case was laid over until this morning. John T. Smith, jointly implicated with John Shirley, in abducting $100, the property of J W. Gravely, a boarder at the Columbian Hotel, was brought up and remanded to jail until the 14th inst.--The summons against J. W. Satterfield for refusing to carry passengers in his hack unless they paid more than the sum prescribed by the ordinance, was partly heard and continued.
