. Ctty Court.
Tha Mayor's leVee tbia morniug was
unusually large both .in culpri'a and wit
nesses. The firsfccase called was Susan Jobnsor,
a white girl of some seveuteen summerb
or more,-who when asked where she lived
had forgotten the name of the street.
(But the Chief of Police coming to her
assistance right then told the .Mayor tht
the name of the street was Mulberry, and
the locality Paddy's Hollow,at the foot of
the above namedVstreet, near , the water's
edge. The chargrf against the defendant
was disorderly conduct in that ahe used
Very abusive and profane language to the
police just outside of Cason Vanoson's
ball room at the corner oft Mulbery: and
Nutt streets. The defendant when
arrested by the police was in bloomer ball
costume,' which the pel ice "say alt the
gentle belles of Paddy 8 Hollow ddDj
whenever there is a ball of the. kind
named above given. This particular
costume is said to be a sort of ballet
style, so that their trails will not inter
fere with the shu filing of their feet; it is
1
-rither on the Black Urook order, too, bo
the Day Janitor at the City Hall says,
which is supposed to be for spectacular-
elfact., . Tue defendant, however, having
been arrested on Saturday night had
ample time to change her costume before
appearing before the Mayor this morning
which si e evidentl improved, and when
arra goed this "morning, was in the
modest costume generally worn by her
sex. The Mayor seemed moved to pity
in1this case, from some cause or other,
and released the prisoner with a slight
reprimand and a strong admonition not
to appear there again.
Cason Yanoson, an emigrant from the
Fdderland, who is at present proprietor of
Yaho3onr8 lodging house, barroom and
restaurant, corner of Nutt and Mulberry
streets, in the classic precincts of Pad
dy's Hollow, was arraigned upon the
charge of 'abusing the police officer who
mi la the arrest of Susan Johnson.' Con
si lering it the first offence the Mayor pro
nounced judgment of $10 fine, from which
Mc Yanoson declared he would take an
appeal, whereupon the Mayor ordered him
ti give a justified bond in the sum of $50
for his appearance at the next term of the
Criminal Court, but .Yanoson -afterward
reconsidered, the appeal, when the Mayor
remitted half the fine, and the defendant
ptid$5 and departed. )
A youthful-looking foreign sailor; whose
busby tow head had rather a porcupine
appearance, was the next case, the charge
balng drunk and down, and so beastly
intoxicated that he had to he handed to
the Guard House on a dray. Sen'enct
of the Court was that defendant pay; tha
costs in the case.
Turee. tramps wen the next oq docket,
t wo of whom gave their names respect
ively as Taomas Keiley and James Kelley.
The first name! declare 1 however that he
was not a tramp but was engaged at
work in this city., The charge against
the two defendants was bping asleep in a
vacant lt. Thomas &elley taid the
liquor b6 drank, on Saturday niht over
came him so, that he sank under the
weight of the load he was carrying and
dropped to sleep in the place above nam
ed. James Kelley said he was a seafaring
man and came from Newborn to this
port to ship. The third man, who gave
his name as Joba Hughes claimed to be a
s vdor also,but he was found by ofScerMay
er aeleep iulJMr Jas Dawson's flower gar
den,on the corner of Front and Chestnut
streets. The police tfiicer, it seems, was.
attr cted by the man's loud suoring as
he was passu: g on his beat about '4
o clock in the morning, and went in andl
made the arrest. The Mayor ordered
the two sailors to be locked-up for the
present and dismissed the case of Thomas
Ktlley. '
Thia closed the do:ket and the Comt
adjourned. , -
