Wnt reve evans at «i OCAL INTELLIGENCE Cetarnay Covrnr—The case of Gerhardt, charged with mauslaughter, was given to the jury yesterday afternoon The next case taktn up was that of John Joy, charged with assaulting and beating Wesley Bal- lenger at the restaurant of Messrs. Keese and Gib- son. Case was submitted, and Joy fined $1 and costs. The case of Robert King, for assault and bat- tery on Willi: Mastin at Fasby’s ship-yard was also submitted, and King was fined $5 a1 costs. William Rawlins, free colored. was next ht u with the larceny of a pair of Sohal the of Samuel Furguson. The acensing party, Ferguson, white laborer, Was called to the stand and stated, that he went home to his house, and his beard needing to be reaped. he asked bis wife to go up stairs and bring him the said razors out of his carpet bag, whieh hung at the foot of his bed; that she went for them and returned, ost bet ey were not there; that he felt very bad abont {t, as he was acenstomed to shave twice per week. and must do it; that he had much rather lose the coat off his back than those razors; as he had purchased them with his own money, and when he bought a thing with his own money, be considered it his pro ty that he bought the razors of a Yankee in Baltimore, and could go to Baltimore and show the court the very man from whom he pur- ebased them for five dollars, and he was a Yan- kee and kept a livery stable and that he, witness. was in his employ at the time he made the pur- chase, and that if was necessary for him to shave twiee per week. or lis beard wonld get down in his mouth. and bother him when be wanted to eat; and that he would not take five dollars for the razors to-day, 2!thongh he had used them for | twelve months, and that he must have the razors, for some times he had no fip to go to the barbers. and was then Shy Spats to go with his beard rowing all over his face; he always kept the ra- zors in the carpet bag before mentioned, and that— Counsel. Never mind, Mr. Ferguson, you can stand aside. Call the other witness. ‘The other witness was a free colored man, named Wiggins, who deposed that he went to Ferguson’s house and saw Rawlins standing at Ferguson's door, witb the razor case in bis hand; he averred that the razors must have been in the case then, for they were always kept there; he went away then, and the witness never saw the tazors again. ‘The case was given to the jury, who retired. and ina few minutes returned with a verdict of not guilty. His honor called Rawlins up, and told him that be bad got clear by the chance fact that the witness only saw the case. and did not see the tazors. He gave him a lecture, in which he told him that he must never steal any more razors; to this Rawlins made answer that he never would; and went on his way rejoicing. The next case was submitted to the Court, it being one of assault and battery by Rob’t Brown on his brother-in-law, A. Rives; fined $10 and costs The jurors were here discharged for the day. The Court waited some time for the jury to re- turn in thecase of Gerhardt. and, they not Coming in, the Court was adjourned. The jury in the Gerhardt homicide case are un- able to agree on a verdict. having now been out since two o'clock p. m. yesterday. They see no chance to come to an agreement at all, and will probably be discharged and a new trial entered upon The Court to-day took up the case of Charles Barker, charged with assault and battery on >. C. Larkin; submitted; fined &1 and costs. The next case was that of James M. Miner for assault and battery on Eli Lake, submitted by Mr. Carrington counsel! for the defence. No de- cision given. The next case was that of Thomas Donelson, brought up on charge of assault and battery on his wife, Mary Donelson, who was called to tes- tify against her lord and thaster, and stated that Thomas got drunk and beat her over the head with his fists and a shoe, and that he was now very sorry he had done so, and that sbe had for- given him on his solemn promise not to do so j again; but she hoped that he would be punished if he ever shonld break his promise. She had forgiven him for this offence, and was willing to take him back to her bosom. The Court called Thomas up, and lectured him about getting drunk, and tined him fifty cents and let him off. warning him that if he came up again on such 4 | charge, he would be more severely dealt with. Thomasand Mary left the Court together leoking su, remely happy. next case was that of Patrick Cahill, charged with assauit and battery on Bridget Hig- gins, on the first day of July, 1657. Radcliffe for defence. The case was in progress when this report closed. Petty Larcenies.—Lately, it se2ms as if a new gang of children are banded together tocom- mit depredations upon stores, dwellings, &c.,and who escape punishment by reason of their youth. Many will remember what trouble was occa- stoned a few years ago by a yang this description walled by the police the « Forty Thieves,”* an who, though ey. arres' Were jet off on account of their youthfulness; and the ery was- then for a house of correction. At the present time there are lads passing about the city pilfer- ing small articles from the ata stores, never taking rauch at a time, but so shes ape that their dep- redations ake a considerable aggregate amount. If these littie chaps are taken, their youth excites pity, and the losers decline to prosecute, and they are set at liberty to reaew their depredations. As these pilferers appear to be ineteasiny in numbers and boldness. our eftizens will tad it necessary in self-defence to prosecute every case. OF Rich Promise isthe announced excurston og the Still Club to Leonardtown on Wednesday next. We have often wondered that the getters up of excursion parties have overlooked the great attractions in the neighborhood of Leonardtown, Md., in selecting their 2 era of visit, and we think the Still Club will do good service to the ublic as well as procure much enjoyment to Themseives by opening rE to public notice this enticing locality. The fishing at this point is said to be superb; and this fact, we fancy, has something to do with its selection by the Still Ctub, some of whose members are known to be most devoted foliowers of Isaac Walton and the gentle artof angling. ‘The Powhatan has been engaged for the excursion, and will leave the 6th street wharf at eight o'clock on Wednesday morning next. and return to this city on Thurs- day night. The price of tickets. adinitting one gentleman and two ladies, bas been fixed at two dollars, which is low indeed. Tus Pic Nicat ARLINGTON SPRING —Mr. Ed- ator: Permit me to call the attention of your nu- merous readers to the notice of the pic nic to be given on the 22d instant, at Arlington Spring by the English Lutheran Sunday School. Now that crime ix on the increase in our midst, and confined almost exclusively to the young, every effort which may be made to reclaim such and to tuculcate religious principles in the hearts of the young, who are soon to assume the responsible duties of an active life, and thus to lend its aid in forming and moulding correct sentiments in the community, is certainly worthy of patronage. Such ts the object of this pic nie, to enable the school to extend its operatious, and place it upon a more durable and solid foundation. Piney Point Pavition.—Inarecent trip down the Potomac we had occasion to compare the ad- vantages offered at the different bathing places, and ean say that we saw no place which impressed us so favorably as Piney Point, with itsadmirable beach, sheltered harbor, pleasant surroundings of islands and mainland, and, moreover, its well kept hotel, so satisfactorily managed by Col Dix. The veteran local editor of the Intelligencer (who visited Piney Point lately.) we notice pays this establishment and its proprietor a deservedly handsome compliment Harp Case —Last night, a colored individual, vamed Bill Galloway, went to the guard house and made a statement to the Captain and Justice Smith of the wrongs iuflicted upon him by a white man, whose name he did not know. Bill, it seems. went to Lis home last evening, after his daily toil, and there found the individual referred to in close conversation with his (Bill's) wife. Bi requested him to leave forthwith; but the otruder did not feel so inclined, and walked into Bill with a stick. and beat Lim severely, ehasin: bim out of his own house.

Davis and MeKim and Prof. Pen. dieton. The school room was crowded to suffo- cation with an audience of parents, teachers and friends. The exercises were conducted as fol- lows: Opening Round—“ School is open.’ Chant From the recesses of a lowly spirit.’ 1. General exercises in Rrogral hy. 2. Second class in reading and spelling. Song—*' See the shades.” 3. Hint class in written arithmetic and algebra. 4. Third class in reading and spelling. Song—* Echo chorus.’’ Recess. Round—* Indian Drom.’ 5. General exercises in spelling. 6. Firstclass in general analysis and hand-book. Song. ** What are the wild waves saying.”” 7. bes, readittg and spelli " 8. General exercises in mental arithmetic. 9. Second and third: clnsse . Second and third classes English 10. Dictation (school) i ta Song— Fareweil."* —— Old Hundred.” The time consumed in the above exercises va- ried from five to twenty minutes to each exercise. some few of them occupying thirty minutes, such as reading and spelling ; and in mental arithme- tic and algebra, the examination occupied nearl: anbour. The classes were generally cxmnined. by their teacher, Miss Myrick: The classes showed a remarkable degree of roficiency, and of such uniformity that it would pe difficult to say in which branches the pupils mostexcelled. Theclasses in mental and written arithmetic, grammar, and dictation perhaps ex- hibited the most marked proficiency. We wish our city fathers could have listened to the beautiful devotional chant sung by fifty- two sweet le girls: ‘From the recesses of a lowly spirit my humble prayer ascends: Oh father hear it; Borne on the trembling wings of fear and meekness, forgive its weakness.’ ‘This Prayer, expressive of the most childtike reliance on the Great lather above, and expressive of the utter helplessness and unworthiness of the peti- tioner, went up from those little ones with all the feeling and expressiveness which the union of so many innocent voices, trained by their teacher to the perfection of jnvenile excellence. could give to it, and drew from the crowd of persons who listened manifestations the most demonstrative of gratification At the close of the exercises the school was ad- dressed by Mr. %. Richards, prineipal of the Union Academy, who spoke at some ength and in words of strong commendation of the exami- nation Which had just passed, complimenting the pupils on their readiness and correctness in re- plying to the ditticult questions put, and remark- ing that they had worked hard to accomplish this proficiency, and at the sume time they could not tell how much they owed to the paticut kind- ness of their teacher in having attained this high position before their parents and friends; that they had only began to ascend the ladder of hu- man Enowlcore and usefulness which they would be climbing all their lives and then fail fo reach the summit; that the longer they studied and the harder, the more they would see to be acquired : but that they must ge in their efforts, for it was this striving this constant application to their studies in their young days which fitted them to take positions. iu the world when they grew up, which Would afford them the opportu- nity of using the ka@wledge thus attained fer the edornment of the different spheres in which they would be called upon to move. Mr. Pendleton followed the first speaker in a short addres<, in which he spoke of the progress of the school during the past year, and compli- mented the teacher on the proficiency which she had caused the pupils toattain, and not forgetting the praiseworthy efforts of Mr. Mirick, the Brother of the teacher, Who had while she had been ill for some time, kindly lent bis assistance tothe school, that they might not fail to progress continually in the great cause of education. Mr. P. sat down, and the school was dismissed. We must not forget to mention the closing sor of the pupils, the + Farewell,’ the burthen o} which was borne by two sweet little girls, named. Maggie Mundel and Susie MeConnell. who sang as we hardly ever heard little girls sing before, and at the end of each verse were joined in chorus by the whole school ; it was enchanting. [comMMUNIcATED. Tur Marine Baxp axp Yanxex Doopir.— * Yankee Doodle"’ is a great institution. It be- longs to “ the universal Yankee nation.*? It has been whistled by school boys, sung by milk maids, and played upon fife and drum every ‘training day*’ and Fourth of July time imine- moriat. By long uw: it has become stereotyped in the memories and hearts of the American peo- ple. Wo to the ruthless hand that would alter a single note! Alter Yankee Doodle? Talk of altering the Declaration of Independence or the Fourth of July, but let that good old tune remain. Having heard the Marine Band on several oc- casions attempt to play Yankee Doodle, and inva- tiably play several notes of the last strain wrong, the writer thought he would respectfully suggest to the talented Professor who conducts the per- formances of the band the propriety of giving the public in future good, nusophisticated, old- fashioned Yankee Doodle. Do, Prof. Scala, give us the genuine article. JONATHAN [cOMMUNTCATED. Tur Starve to PRaNKLIN.—Mr. Editor: i was much pleased with ‘‘(Quod’s”’ suggestion, mnmade a few weeks ago, that a bronze statue of Ben. Franklin be erected in this city. and Lam somewhat surprised that something of the kind has not been leas heretofore by the craft in this locality. 1 would suyyesi, however, if the project receives favorable consideration, that the statue be a mixture of type metal and copper instead of the other metals used in bronze. [Lave no doubt the type metal would be soon and. weit con- tributed in old type, &e., by the employers fn this city and neighborhood, and money would tuen be only needed for copper and other necessary expenses besides the pay of the artist who might be employed. My idea is that it would not be necessary to yo out of the city for either the funds or the artist, and that the project, if once under- taken, can be successfully carried through in a few months. M. Dasu. Nove. Cuarce —This morning, a stout young man went to the office of Justice Donn and asked for a warrant against his wife. He charged her with thrashing him, and driving him out of the house. The Justice gave hima lecture on the subject, but would not give him a warrant. He then applied to Justice Goddard, with no better SUCCESS, begs obtaining a AISsie prod advice The young man had evidently been drinking, and was not really in a condition to make the oath. It is not usual to hear complaints of this kind from strong, able-bodied imen—the complaints gener- ally come from the weaker sex. Tue Porice oF tHE Sixrn DistRict.—Incon- sequence of the recent wounding of Thomas Robinson, police officer of the Sixth Ward, there has been but one officer on duty in that district for several days, and that one is Police Officer Edelin. lately appointed to that position in place of W. iarper, transferred to the Auxiliary Guard. This district is remarkable for its quiet and or- der, and being provided with good and competent officers, peace is easily preserved.
