C, City Court The Mayor held an unusually large levee this morning, the Court room beiDg quite crowded, but mostly with citizens of African descent, which is usual on such occasions whenever any case of impor tance K to be tried, and no matter the timsof day, nor the length of time con sumed in the trial, the colored man tefcres always to have ample leisure to enatle him to endure the tediousness of the cae Charles Legeier, charged w.th disorder ly conduct, was the first case calUd acd was disposed of by the defendant paying : he costs . A party for committing a nuisance in the public streets was fined $5 and costs. Toe third and last case on doc Set was the one which excited rrost interest, and when thft name of George Wright, alias Grorge Myers was called, a small man with black skin, kinky bair and with no shoes on bis feet, came out of the prison er's dock and appeared at. the bar of tb Court, the crow I at this time gathering closer to the railing, and all eyes were turned to see the man who was arraigned upon the serious charge of house break ing,! which is classed in .the Criminal Code of this State, where the houne broken in tj is a dwelling, as was the caee in th's instance, as burglary, with the penalty in case of conviction of punishment by death. Mr. Solicitor Moore, as is customary with that gentleman in matters ot this kind, was on hand to examine witnesses for the titato. Mr. D. C. Third, between streets, and. the Davis, who resides on Bladen and Harnett party, whose house was robbed, was the first witness called to the stand, and he testified in substance that early yesterday morning, just before day, he was awakened by bis wife, who arouL ed him and told him that some one was in the house. Leaping up at once he bolted into the outer room, where the bur glar jwas rifling the pockets of his clothes, but the noise of his coming disturbed the thief who darted out of the door closely pursued by Mr. Davis ; reaching the yard Mr. Davis saw the thief dodging in some shrubbery, but before he could leaeh him the villain made good his escape. from the premises, leaving a pair of pan's which he had taken, in the ooreer of the fence. The alarm was given by Mr. Davis, who was joined by his brother-in-law, Mr Turley, and they both continued the chase after; the robber in their night clothes, running him throngh an alley near by, when several policemen, just off duty who were wending their way homeward, heard the alarm and joined the chase. The thief disappeared by jumping fence?, first one way and then another, until he washeaded off by Officer J. L. Williams and' Mr. Eugene C. Allen, who caught him In Love's Alley. j , Mr. Davis stated further that the thief had taken from his breeches pocket a bag containing coin, mostly silver to the amount of $11 32, besides a gutta percba match box, and a little eather case; that in the bag mentioned was seven half doUars and one silver dollar, besides other small coin, including a good many Jsi'ver threej cent pieces. The witness stated also that his ve3t had been rifled and among other things of an old copper coin of the -date of 1790 or 179 1. The bag taken therefrom was found in posses sion of the prisoner when he jwas caught and was produced and i opened by the Solicitor acd the contents emptied upon a table, including seven silver half dollars - j i : aud one silver dollar and also numerous three cent pieces, all as described by the witness before the Ronton ts of the bag were: shown in Court; a gutta pdrcha match box and a small leather ease were also produced, which Mr. Davis identified as bis property. The witness was then aiked if the prisoner at the bar was the man i whom he give chase to on his pre raises ye$erday morning audhe said that ha was. ' Officer J.L William 3 and Mr Eugene O. Allen both testified th tt tLe prisoner at the bar vaa U3 man they arretted in Love's ! alley yesieriay morning abgnt ive ramn i i i: es p?st 6 o'clock. Officer Wil testified that they took from his liams also i I v person when be ws searched at the iiil i . i r Guard House a' bag containing silver coin,' a gntta percha match box, a little leather case and an old copper coin :hich was !oci.iA the, bag wUb,the other money; also one shoe, which was stack in the prisoner's left coat pocket. Other wiu nesses were called bat the evidence dSered wis of raiser lapcrlancx ccapircd; with MONDAY - MARCH ncer Williams and Mr. Allen. Harriett Hubbard, a light colored wo man, was examined as a witness, and tea tificd in effect that the defendant mar ried her dang ter, and that be and hi wife occupy the name building with. her self, though their rijoras are divided off from each other. Witness beicg asked whit lime the defendant left home yes terday mnrninjj, said she got up before day aud looked out, when Fhe beard George, th' defendant, up in his room talking with bis wife, saying that be was going after some wood Also beard h s Wife say to him, 'Ma has some wood acd she will let you have tome adding 'don t yu go out of this house to-day, for if you do you will repent it the longest day you live;' cou!d not identify the shoe, though George had new shoes at home which he had worn just like that. Officer Kendrick,who serve 1 the warrai t on defendant, testified that when he ask ed the prisoner what his name was he res plied that he registered and voted as George Myers. When asked if he didn't register and vote as George Wright a'so he replied in the affirmative. The de fendant, who had no counsel, was always asked by the Mayor before the witness quitted the stand if he wished to ask any questions. Sometimes he availed himself and at other times he did not, but inev ery instance whenever he speke he tried to make a statement to clear himself though he acknowledged being on Mr. Davis' premises, but said he went in to fasten the gate, and that in jumping the fence he lost his shoes (this was the way he happeaed to be barefooted) and on the fence he found the one shoe then in Court with the bag and money in it. Thepris. oner was frequently warned by the So licitor that it would be best not to make a statement as it might be used against him at the trial, but through ignorance we suppose, whenever he went to ask questions of a witness the prisoner invar iably said something which would crimi nate himself. , i After the examination of all the wit nesses His Honor ordered the defendant to be committed into the custody of the Sher iff without bail for his appearance at tl next term of the Criminal Court. This finished the docket and the Court ad journed. 1 We neglected to say in the proper place that Mr. Davis stated, while en the witness 8tand,that the entrance to his dwelling on the night or morning of the burglary was made by a bolt bon a lattice door .'being forced back with some sharp instrument, leaving the print of the instrument on the door. A screwdriver which was found on the person of George Wright, alias George Myers, was then produced in Court aud Mr. Davis testified that in all probability that was the very tool used as be described.
