Mayor's Court.

--Among the cases disposed of by the Mayor yesterday we cite the following:

James M. Munday, member of Ninth Virginia cavalry, charged with disorderly conduct in the street, and drawing a pistol on the watch, was held to security for his good behavior.

’ The case of Ned, slave of Turpin &Yarbrough, charged with conniving at the escape of Lucy Ann, slave of A. Wolff, was called; but, for reasons which actuated previous postponements, the accused was again committed till a future day.

Elizabeth, a slave, charged with receiving a lot of bacon which was stolen from James R. Childs some time last spring, was ordered to be whipped.

Several parties were fined for permitting waste water to escape from their hydrants, thereby creating a nuisance.
