t was commenced with great hilarity over bowls of egg-nog and apple-toddy. It is, therefore, with pride and pleasure that we allude to the barrenness of the Mayor's docket on Saturday. We sincerely hope that this symptom of reform may affect all classes, and that New Year's Day may become the occasion of firm and serious resolves to spend the year of our Lord 1861, in such a manner that its termination will give rise to happy and satisfactory reflections. We entertain no doubt that James Riley wished that he had sworn off a year ago, and stuck to his resolution; nay, we think that when he found himself before the Mayor on Saturday, he regretted that he had not chosen the riley water of the James for a Christmas beverage, in preference to the essence of corn that made him top-heavy, and sent him on a zig zag excursion through the streets.

Horse stealing. --A man named Charles P. Denny was arrested yesterday by the civil police, and placed in confinement, on the charge of stealing a horse valued at $150 from James Riley. The species of amusement noticed above seems to have become very common of late, judging from the large number of advertisements in the papers, offering rewards for lost horses.
Police Court, --A number of cases were heard before the sitting magistrate at this Court yesterday, and disposed of as follows: Charles F. Denny, charged with stealing a horse from James Riley, was sent before the Provost Marshal; Joseph H. Mabry, a free negro, having a box of sugar in his possession, and without a legal register, ordered 15 stripes; Vincent N. O. Dett, a soldier arrested for associating with negroes, was sent to Gen. Winder. His excuse was that, coming to town two weeks since, sick, and being unable to find any other lodgings, the negroes had agreed to take care of him, and he permitted them to do so until his arrest by the police on the above charge.
