Impudence.

--Smith Moody, slave of John P. Ballard, was carried before the Mayor yesterday, and ordered 39 lashes for using insolent, provoking and incendiary language in presence of Minerva Meredith. The witness in this case stepped into Walter Duke's shop, on Broad street, for some articles, and saw there four Negroes, including Moody, who was discussing, in an energetic style, the value of an Alexandria bank note. In the discussion, after indulging in some forcible expletives, he said that if such notes were not good now, they would be when Lincoln whipped the South, as he would do soon, having ten men to our one, &c.
