Mayor's Court, Commissioner SUackle- ford, Mayor pro tern., residinfir, August 28th. :i , Commissioner Shackleford's course in dia- peasing with the criminals and disorderly cases that come before him daily, has a good effect in two respects, in the first place it lessons the number of culprits and in the next place it in creases the fund in the city treasury. Two colored boys, James Harris and Bobby tlarlowe were engaged by a dealer in fish jo sell for him ; these precocious youths having an eye to their own advantage, thought proper to confiscate the money theyi received, and were in actual enjoyment of their petium, cum dignitate, when the worthy fish proprietor discovered them. Of course heim mediately dispelled their dreams of stolen happiness by handing them in charge to a policeman. The mayor took pity on the tender ages of the juvenile delinquents1 and con signed them to forty eight hours of repentance iu the cells, after forking over their illy appro priate 1 gai is. A. M. Tilley was arrested for furious riding in the streets. The Quartermaster appeared and certified that he was acting under orders and that his fast trayelling was s military ne cessity. Four young gentlemen were arrested for drunkeness and disorderlyconduct on the streets. One of these individuals has twice made his appearance before ; his honor during the past eek, and has met with lenient treatment. They were severally fined $10 and retained in custody until the amount was paid. . City Provost Court. August 2T. Jane Parker, arrested by order of Capt. Cut ler for insulting language.

George Johnson made a raid on somebody else's property and found himself in a bad box. He is nuw enjoying th. delight of a private loom in the city jail. Dust.. .."From dust we came, to duat we must return," says the principal written authority we know of ; but we decidedly object to becoming a dust hole or a dusty subject, before the end of all things, therefore we would suggest to our city authorities some movement that will have a tendency to keep those in our streets from be ing choaked, blinded and stifled. We think some enterprising individual with a hogshead of water per day and a tin sprinkler attached to the aforesaid, mounted on a cart could make a nice little sum everyweek. We have heard sev eral business gentlemen say they would willing ly give a dollar a week, towards the laying of the dust in our streets and it will undoubtedly be a great advantage to the community to es tablish a watering cart.

Mataiiioros advices of the 18th instant says numerous troops au ariillery trains continue to arrive at Biownsville. The troops are al most exclusivi ty negroes. The Time City of Mexico correspondence, of the 21st ult., says EstafelU, the French organ, declaits but two courses open: that France should assume the protrctora e of Mexico, as it admits it is an entire lailure, and declares it must become one of the Frenuh provinces, or the country must te absorbed by the United States, as Mexican indepen dence, it says, is impossible. The usual fighting Continues, resulting in frequent Imperial disasters. The recall of the Papal Nuncio by the Pope caused a great seusation among the cler gymen, who are also openly opposed to the Emperor. Maximilian has sent General Ameligen as minister to Washington, and hopes to secure, recognition.' i A threatening article appeared in the French papers on the demonstration they say that General Sheridan is making on the Northern frontier. A number of idle Confederate bands in the City of Mexico have lobt all confidence in Maximilian. FROM GEORGIA.

The Augusta Transcript of the 19th says, outrages and robberies iave prevailed exttn sively in the vicinity of Au. u-hi, und were mostly perpetrated by returned rebel soldiers. The efficient measures taken by the military police were causing their subsidence. The Macon correspondent of tbe Transcript 3tates that cotton is being rapidly buught up and shipped. Immense amounts of oods, including pro duct and Hour, were arriving from Cincinnati and Louisviiln, which wero much needed. second dispatch. New York, August 24.

Railroad Disaster in Pennsylvania A Frightful Collision. Erie, Pexx.; August 24. A collision between a passenger and a freight train occurred on the Oil Creek Railroad this morning. Nine persons were killed and from ten to fifteen wounded. j SECONDBESPATCU. The accident on the Oil Cretk Railroad, near Titusville, was caused by ihs engineer of the freight train running upon the main track to get on a switch about th'e time the mail.train was due, and coming around li curve be was not abieto see the engine until he was tsitbin afe' yards of it.

A Terrible Gale -Three Thousand Sea Nrmpht Caugrht in the Surf They Seek Iiefupe t the Hotels-Lndlcrous Scenes -How the Iale Bipeds njoyed the Scene. '' A more naughty than naut otl friend -ends the following description of a storm and stam rxde at Cape Is'and on Saturday, the 13ib, to a Washington piier : Cape Island was visited on Sunday after noon by a sudden and tenifij gale and thun der shower. No dtuuge done,5 except to the feelings of about three thousand person, (most of them when dressed ) said to be "beau tiful young ladies," who at the time were cl icking in the Mtrf, which huhed and toared and foamed as the black storm-clou j ap proached and burn upon the health and pleasure seeker. They " took to their heels,' and, under " close reef," leaving the ' full dress "in the bathing booths, this singular looking hetcrogene cruwd, just emerged from old Neptune's arms, ran promiscuously ut to the sandy beech, over the pebbles and rocks, into and through the public streets of the c ty, to their seveial homes They looked I like so many wild Indiana, only more so. F I . 1 A A . . v;nurcn was just out, ana tne two crowds met . What a contrast! An artist wanted. Ka ture confronted the milliner, hairdresser, and dressmakers. Dressmuket, hairdresser and milliner avaunt ! Nature was herself again. The windows and piazzas bf the United Sates, and other ho els, wi re row 'ed ta witness the wondeiful scene. How plump she is," crie one; "I didn't suppose she wus o finely built," exclaimed another ; She never sports a waterfUI tur wears a liop," exclaimed a third; "She is beauty unadorned," adds a fourth. Just at the same moment a boy (rude boy sitting on the step) was heard to s.ty, 44 Bi'l, see that thing coming ; it looks like two wei stockings on a lathe." 44 Hush ; you rascal," said agentleman 4,that is Miss Pine feather, of Philadelphia." gentlem-in turning asidf to his friend, remarked, "Smith, did you ever see such a transmogrification m your life? Whit deceptive people thesedre s mukers, hairdressers and milliners are. In their hands M ss P. appears to be a true model t-f voluptuous plumpness, when in faci she is a meie waifer.'.'J So the two crowds parsed on, one from church gaily attired in their variegated silks and sa ins at-d muslinsj surrounded by deceptive hoops and waterfalls, and with - painful faces and extravagant bonnets and hat?, the othoi crowd, fresh and green and natural from t!u surf, with just enough upon them to hide tlieir skin, but not t e form just as " Tuey stripped their beauteous limits To taste the lucid coolness of tlio tiood.'- as Thompson (not Doesticks) woull say. Thcs'i two crowds soon mingled and soo- passed way. But the wet dolphins from the sea were flying from the threatening storm which was the.i only venting its spite in wind hurling great c'ouds of dust into the faces of the pedestrians. Tho bathers could ' weath er it very well, but the church people espe cially the ladies had too much 41 sail ou " and were frequently cirried across the str et against the fence or a tree, the wind mani festing very little respect forladi a s gam en'cs Sometimes a lady would rind her petticoats ab ut her head, instead of 'ifotecting her feet. Then crowds upon the piazzas of the hotels woukl clap their hands and" shout and la ugh J and the ladies who were spectators could not help joining in to save their sou's.- During this exciting scene, which we are partially describing, as,one which doea not need coloring, wo young females, neat'y dressed and veiled, wereitrying to " weathei " a corner, but the dust, just before the rain begati to fall, flew su thick and severely into their faces that they had to turn their backs -t. J Al , ... I . ! V. r.1 1. J A I upon it and the crowd, which unfolded tw pairs of finely s .aped legs. I he sDeetatorj on the piazza were delighted. The gentle men laughed and nudged each oth.r, and the lady spectators blushed. "Splendid," re marked Col. M. " Perfect models for an ar tist' was the reply. At this moment, the young ladies mustered ourage, and Wheeled about to mako headway, when the wind re vealed the fact tiia they woie colored and of the ebon)' cist! Such a shout followed this reve:ation can better be imngined than de scribed. Ladies and gentlemen (with the ex ceplion of Col. M and his fri ndf j ined i i a hearty shout, The Colonel disappeared, and the African damsels who had innocently af forded so much fun passed on. Suih were some of the rich and vri gated scenes which the gale and storm furnished the visitor t Cape Island lat bunday.
