point of numbers. If the company ever
gets tn possession of the Armory which
rightfully belongs to them, and which wo
think ex-Mayor Dawson is willing to testify-
was given to them by the then town
corporation of which be was the head at
the time, it will be a considerable saving
to tbe company in a pecuniary way.

A Religious Craze.
A colored woman, whose name we
could not ascertain, visited yesterday
afternoon a number of houses in tbe
Eastern part of the city , ben t, as she seemed
to think, on a special mission of grace.
She would go up to a house and knock
at the door and when some one appeared
in response would insist upon it that
they must leave the doors and front
gate open; that the Savoir would appear
presently in mortal guise and that He
would eater each house where he found
the door open. The poor woman should
be cared for but we have not yet heard of
her being apprehended.
Magistrate's Court.
William Thomas, a colored youth, ha'd
L. B. Hart, arrested and carried
before J. C. Hill, J. P., for assault and
battery. Tbe defendant was required
to pay a fine ot $5 and costs.
Mr. L. B. Hart then had William
Thomas arrested for trespass and carried
before another Justice for trial, the re
sult of which was that the defendant was
required to pay one penny and costs.
Jennie Rhodes, colored, arrested yes
terday for larceny of a valuable gold
ring and other articles, had a preliminary
trial this morning before a J. P , and was
bound over to the Criminal Court in the
sum of $100.
Br. Mendelsohn and His Bride.
The Rev. Samuel Mendelsohn, Rabbi
of tbe congregation of the Temple
of Israel, in this city, was married in
Philadelphia, on Sunday last, to Miss
Esther, daughter of Rev. Dr. Jastrsw, of
that city. The happy couple are ex-,
pected here next Thursday night, by the
9:63 train from the North. They will
be met and welcomed at the depot by a
large number of friends and will then re
pair to the pretty little residence pre par
ei for thorn on Chestnut street, between
Fourth and Fifth, where it is probable
that many others will call and tender
their congratulations.
Gene After Him.
A colored individual by the name of
Albert Jessnp is charged with having
stolen last Friday, at Sloop Point, the
urn of $31 from Mr. Dugald .McMillan.
He was supposed to have fled to this city
and Chief of Police Brock was on Sat
urday notified of tbe occurrence and re
quested to arrest Jessnp, if be could be
fjund. On Sunday morning Mr. H. J.
McMillan arrived bere, arrived with a
warrant for Jessup's arrest, but he could
net be found. Capt. Brock, having rea
son to suppose that be had gone to
Fayetteville, telegraphed to that point for
his capture and to day received a dispatch
trom that place eaying that the man
answering to Jessup's description had been
caught there and was a waiting identifica
tion. Mr. McMillan left for Fayetteville
on one of the boats this afternoon, having
been sworn in previous to bis departure by
Justice Hall as a special deputy for tbe
purpose of claiming and bringing the pris
oner back to this place.

Signs or the Chin.
The character of a man, it is said, can
be read in bis chin.
A pointed or round chin indicates a
congenial love. A person with such a
chin will have a beau ideal, and will not
be easily satisfied with real men or women.
The indented chin indicates a great
desire to be loved; ahunger and thirst for
affection. When large in women, she
may overstep tbe bounds of etiquette and
mase love to the one that pleases her.
A narrow, square chin indicates a desiie
to love, and is more common among
women.
The broad, square chin indicates ardent
love, combined with great ste adfastness
and permanence of affection.
The retreating chin is indicative of tbe
want of attachment, and but little ardor
in love.
The chin, in its length and breadth,
indicates self. control, telf-will, resolution,
decision, etc.
Carnivorous animals have the upper
jaw projecting, while those of tbe grami
nivorous nature have the lower jaw prc
.ecticg. Id a man with a projecting upper jaw
will be found large destructiveness and
love of animal food; when the lower jaw
projects then the love for vegetable food.
