Stealing iron. --Daniel Solon, for several days since confined in Castle Thunder, was sent up from that institution to the Mayor yesterday to answer the charge of stealing a quantity of scrap iron from the Confederate Government.

Robb, of the Confederate service — the examination was adjourned until Tuesday nex

Tight place. --Daniel Solon, a man of some police notoriety, appeared before the Recorder yesterday to answer the charge of assaulting and beating Laura, his wife. Mrs. S. testified that she was hungry, that the courageous Dan refused to give her money to buy food with, and that she started to "pawn" some of the household effects in order to raise the wind, whereupon Dan knocked her down and beat her.
