Main street, Sunday, by engaging in a set-to on the pavement, for which they were prin the cage. The Mayor said their conduct on the occasion constituted a findable nuisance. Each of them was mulled in the sum of $15, and held to bail in $150 not to engage in any more fights for one year from date. John Flinn, a resident of Castle Thunder, was sent up by Captain Alexander for trial, on the charge of stealing $60 and an overcoat from Michael J. Conner, who, one of the witnesses, a North Carolina soldier, testified, was "a dinky old gentleman," having been put in for intoxication. The proof was clear enough that the fellow made way with the funds, and equally clear that he promised, if they would carry him back to the Castle, he would show where he had hid the money. The Mayor saw no reason why Capt. Alexander could not try the case. The prisoner was sent back "unwhipped of justice," and the "dinky old gentleman" left to get his money the best way he could.

the Mayor to-day, but none of such special importance as to call for comment. We subjoin a summary: Pocahontas Kiper and Margaret Parvo, arrested for fighting on Main street Sunday and collecting a large crowd, to the disturbance of the peace, were, in default of ball, sent to prison. The conduct of these women before the Mayor was in marked contrast to their rowdy manifestations during Sunday night, while confined in the lock-up. Columbia Anderson, a mulatto girl, resident of Manchester, was arraigned for drunkenness, a charge fully proved by the oath of one of Major Griswold's detectives. She was ordered to be whipped, and committed for want of security for her good behavior. Thomas Turpin, a lad dressed in uniform, was arraigned for stealing $180 from Thomas T. Emmett, in the First Market, last Wednesday. The testimony was sufficient to warrant the Mayor in committing him for examination before a called Court of Hustings, November 1st. It appears that Turpin enjo

about an hour thereafter they returned into Court with the following verdict: "We, the Jury, find the prisoner, James Slater, guilty of murder in the second degree, and do fix his term of confinement in the Penitentiary at ten years." The same magistrates also examined William S. Conley for feloniously cutting Mary J. McMinn on the arm, on 2d street, and Thomas Dobson and Michael Burns for stealing Julius H. Gantt's horse. All the parties were sent on for trial before Judge Lyons. Henrico Circuit Court, Monday, Oct. 27th.--But little business was transacted in this Court to-day further than some civil cases in chancery. The case of Joseph Bernard, charged with shooting John O. Taylor, will be called up Tuesday, provided a jury can be empaneled. Witnesses will bear the fact in mind and be punctual in attendance. Confederate States Court.--No business of importance was done in this Court yesterday. Adjourned over until Wednesday morning at eleven o'clock A. M.

Robert, slave of Dr. Pollard, were both whipped for being found in possession of pistols by the police. John Myers, arrested for lying down in Locust Alley, "insensibly drunk," was committed for further examination, it being believed that his name is not John Myers, and that he is a deserter from the army. Hustings Court--Hen. Wm. H Lyons, Judge--Monday, Oct. 27th, 1862.--The Court was occupied the entire session of to-day in trying the case of James Slater, charged with shooting Wm. Clarke, in March last, with a pistol, inflicting a mortal wound, of which the said Clarke died. Judge W. W. Crump appeared for the prisoner, and Littleton Tazewell, Esq., for the Commonwealth. About 7 o'clock P. M., the argument of counsel, pre et con, was concluded and the case being submitted to the jury, who immediately retired, and in about an hour thereafter they returned into Court with the following verdict: "We, the Jury, find the prisoner, James Slater, guilty of murder in th

s sufficient to warrant the Mayor in committing him for examination before a called Court of Hustings, November 1st. It appears that Turpin enjoys some notoriety as "a picker-up of unconsidered trifles," as he stands charged on the Mayor's book with picking Thomas J. Stiff's pocket of $19, about one month since, and was on ball to answer that offence when he embarked in the last speculation recorded above. Mary A. and Joseph Thomas, who were summoned to Court at the instigation of Bridget McDonough for an alleged assault, were discharged, the complainant not appearing. Jamison Scott, who required the assistance of two crutches to enable him to get along, was charged with drunkenness and interfering with the marketmen at the First Market. As Scott could give no satisfactory reason for his conduct, he was compelled to subside into the prisoners' box, under the pressure of a demand for $150 bail for his good behavior.

George Needham, who occupies a room in a tenement on Main, between 24th and 25th streets, was charged with keeping "a disorderly and ill governed house" This, interpreted, means that Needham got drunk in his room and made manifestations contrary to law and good manners. He was sent to prison. Francis McNamara was committed, failing to give bail on the charge of mistaking his wife and chi
