Unexpected Termination. --A charge preferred against James Dunlap and Geo. Hodges, by John Kernan, of assaulting and beating him, throwing stones at his house and breaking the door, was investigated by the Mayor on Saturday and dismissed. As the parties were leaving the Court-House, Dunlap, in the excess of his joy, snapped his fingers in Kernan's face, and his wife uttered some loud threats not exactly in keeping with the sanctity of a hall of justice, whereupon they were called back anKernan's face, and his wife uttered some loud threats not exactly in keeping with the sanctity of a hall of justice, whereupon they were called back and informed that they must give surety for their good behavior, which they had not furnished at the time the Court closed. This result should operate as a warning to others who happen to get into the Mayor's presence.

Stealing newspapers. --At an early hour yesterday morning, watchman R. E. Boze detected a man named John Kernan in the act of purloining a copy of the Dispatch from Mr. Whitlock's door, took him into custody and conducted him to the station-house. The facts were narrated to the Mayor, who remarked that complaints of newspape to the Mayor, who remarked that complaints of newspaper thefts had become so universal, that he would commit Kernan to jail by way of a warning to others who might be disposed thus to deprive honest citizens of the news of the day. Kernan is not very shrewd in his roguery. He was turned out of jail only two or three weeks ago. to the Mayor, who remarked that complaints of newspaper thefts had become so universal, that he would commit Kernan to jail by way of a warning to others who might be disposed thus to deprive honest citizens of the news of the day.
