LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. ‘A Lavewaste Occurrence.—About 5 o’clock yesterday afternoon, an amusing affair occurred on K, between Third and Four-and-a-half streets, the Island, which attracted a large crowd of bemeg and occasioned more than one. heart ‘augh. Itappears that an apparently demente, vmleman, who is acquainted with a new! *acried lady residing in that vicinity, took um- cae because he understood that she was not rried in accordance with the discipline of the pe m which she was reared We are in- formed, however, that this was a false impres- on. Being in the vicinity of her residence, he sald ber a visit for the purpose of administering rebuke, a pene. her to ‘‘mend her ways,”? “ia finding Héy tc. ily engaged in the vicinity of bet Seretl ir. without any elaborate int juc- ton be Proceeded to give her such a scolding as one have done honor to the veriest virago ever known, both by reason of the loud tone of voice and the use of aa, iy nda are This I chastisement producing no salutary effect wetthe object of hin soticitude, the seit cond: mted mentor oe to brciatmeer eh eo eg ness of bis lesson Becom| tt tha gw blows from a broom handle: This was re- isted by the woman, who disarmed her an- tagonist, and fleeing to her hotse, closed the qoors against him. He soon procured another similar ‘Weapon, however, ‘and proceeded to ~-gorm the castle” in which she had taken refuge. Mesawb the neightors were attracted to their doors 23 windows, and the scene provoked cbeir hearty laughter. This added to the irrita- tien of the attacking party, who nently devated his voice, in an equal degree to the in- cease of bis wrath, and par to and froin ont of the devoted mansion, brandishing his broomstick and vowing vengeance »gainst the uniacky cause of his anger. Several men, who were working near, now interfered, and one of them endeavored to get the unlucky wight into his house, so that he might be beg his at- sempt was, however, unsuccessful, though it had the effect of terrifying the assailant, who became convinced that the object of the parties was to get himin the house, and there murder him se- cretly. He, therefore, broke from them. and ran away with astonishing swiftness, crying ‘+ mur- der ‘”’ at the top of his voice. His oh prevent- ed him from observing a ditch which lay in bis way, and, of course. he pitched into it head fore- most, though happily without sustaining any in- ary of moment. On regaining his feet, he con- tinued bis flight until be was out of hearing of the taunts and laughter of those who had wit- nessed the scene. Tux Rivex.—The bird season has already be- gun, and the slaughter has commenced. On yesterday afternoon, Messrs. Roby and Harris went down to the Four-mile Run on a shooting trip, and succeeded in killing two dozen ortolan, which they brought back with them. T are said to have been remarkably fine ones; and the lucky killers reported large nuznbers of the usual river fowl about the marshes. Several flights of ducks have been observed from the southern draw of the Long Bridge; the opinion prevails among tue sportsmen about the bridye that this |. fall will be remarkable for the large quantities of game which will be taken on the Potomac tiver and Chesapeake bay. Quite a fleet of lumber vessels and wood boats passed up through the north draw of the bridg> yesterday, to the mouth of the city canal A man was badly hurt at the south draw terday evening, on the arrival of the six o’clock train of cars from Alexandria. He was sitting by the side of the omnibus driver, on the top of the coach, and when crossing the draw his head came in contact with the beams above so vio- lently that he was knocked off insensible. Some kind-hearted passenger placed him in a Private carriage and conveyed him to the city Captain Bertzell came up last night from the mouth of Patuxent river with a boat load of one hundred snapping turties. Captains Fonce and Jobnson also arrived up from Cone river with ‘ash, the former bringing six hundred bunches, and the latter eight hundred bunches, which were sold readily at eig:.teen cents per bunch. The Long Bridge is being placed in order to met the storms and ice of winter, under the super- vision of Mr. Mobun, the agent of the Commis- sioner of Public Buildings. At Young & Carter’s wharf, arrived, schooner Aona B. Hays, from Philadelphia, with 114 tons efcoal. At Riley’s wharf, schooner Golden Rule, with 12* tons of ice forC B.Church.

Tue RaitroaD Mextixe at Urrer Maru. sono’, Mo.— To-day, the commissioners named in the act of the Maryland Assembly for the pro- ‘d Baltimore and Potomac Railroad meet at ax Marlboro’, Maryland, all who take an interest in the matter, to devise means to secure the successful prosecution of the work. The route of the road as proposed, it will be remem- bered, commences at the Patapsco, opposite Bal- timore city, and traverses the counties of Aune Arundel, Prince George's and Charles, toa point on the Potomac bs par Aquia Creek. It thus interests the people of Baltimore and of those counties, as well as a considerable portion of St Mary’s county, on which it will border; and consequently, these four counties, as well as Bal- Umore, are represented in the Board of Com- missioners, and it is er 3 no means a matter of indifference to the people of the District of Co- lambia. “The authority of this Board ge the Plan- ters Advocate) ix ample and fully adequate to the adoption and execution of all measures neces- sary to inaugurate the enterprise, organize the company and to secure the requisite amount of capital.

At the scone time Pinkers appeared with Justice Hollingshead, who acted as counsel for the defendant. The principal witness for the Corporatioa (Ann Coogan, who keeps a small store on Ninth street,) testified that defendant called at ber store inthe morning with several boxes of cigars, and she thought, but could not swear, he offered them to her for sale, as he spoke broken English, and she did not perfectly un- derstand what he said. She admitted, however, that he said something about a cent, which she thought meant that the cigars might be retailed for acent each. On the part of the defendant, Mr Hollingshead Produced a license, signed by Mayor Berret, showing that defendant had paid $45 for a shop license, to sell goods, wares and merchandise, in the city of Washington. The magistrate, after reserving his judgment in the case until the fol- lowing day, entered judgment for the defendant; the evidence not being such, the justice thought, as to jastify the conviction of the defendant es- FRicwtyuL Accipent.—Yesterday morning, a man named Jeff.

HicuwarMEn.—For some weeks past, a gang of young men who have degraded themselves to the level of the common vagrant, have infested the roads north of the city, and rob the adjacent farms and dwellings, and also the wagons on the road to the market. Such gangs as these ought to be broken up as soon as they are known to exist; for, if allowed to continue, they will do great injury to our markets as well as to the farm- ers, and tend greatly to demoralize the youth of the city, who are fond of this kind of romance. This is not the inning ef this sort of gypsy- ing in our vicinity. There are several young men now serving terms in the prisons of this Dis- trict, Maryland, and Virginia, who were edu- cated in the road gangs around Washington. Several years ago we were called upon to notice the depredations of a party who infested the roads, and even went so far as to commit acts worthy of the boldest highwaymen. They were a terror to the country 5 paloma, them from attending regularly the ashington mar- kets. That gare ‘Was composed of males and females, and bivouacked in the woods and marsh- es north and east of the city. The gang now out is composed of similar maierials, and, if not soon arrested, may do much mischief to our citi- zens and the farmers of the country. The City Police appear to have an idea of the parties and their haunts; and it is to be hoped that they will be able to catch every one connected with their acts, and bring them to justice.

DiscRacrruL.—Last evening,about 7 o'clock, two men, one of whom was armed with a massive club, proceeded along Four-and a-half streets, on the Island, from the neighborhood of N street towards the city, making use of various profane and abusive remarks in loud tones of voice, and frightening the children from their accus- tomed sports on the pavements One of them loudiy proclaimed kis name, while the other de- clared that he belonged to the “ great American- Know-Nothing-Buchanan-be-d—d party,” and could whip anythiag on the Island. As nobody appeared to oe their right to belong to any Lost they pleased, or to dispute their enormous Pugilistic abilities, they were allowed to pa-s along. They made no demonstration towards any Ecay they met, however; their only offence consisting in their free use of ee and vulgar language. When they reached the corner of I +treet. theemployer of one of them overtook them and deliberately walked his employee home. ‘The other was taken in charge by a rela- tive,and with considerable difficulty was induced to keep quiet. No police oificers appeared to be in the neighborhood at the time, aithongh the proceeding continued for the space of at least fif- teen minutes, and the amenability of the parties to arrest and punishment was beyond doubt = It is needless to add that they both appeared some- what inebriated, and presented fair specimens of men “ spiling for a fight.” Tus Warrenton Homicipg —Tbe fatal recon- tre which resulted in the death of young Carver, continues to be the all engrossing subject at War- renton White Sulphur Springs. Investigations of the matter before two justices and a coroner’s inquest, have served to elicit palliating circum- stances, upon which James Green, at whose hand Carver came to his death, has been discharged Warrenton correspondents to the Alexandria Papers, say: “ The death of Carver, at the hands of young Green, in an affray on Monday night, at the Warrenton Springs, is the engrossing stibject of conversation in this village. An investigation was had on yesterday before two justices of the county, and an inquest was also held upon the body of the deceased, Justice Fant acting as coroner ‘Fhe jury were an divided upon the question of excusable bomicide, the coroner giving the casting vote, whereupon the magis- trate discharged the accused. There was very little conflict in the testimony, and that was upon an immaterial point’ The renains of the de- ceased, who was a nephew of Daniel Radcliff, Esq., were brought to this city yesterday after- hoon.

The two remaining marble columns, on the cen- tral pediment of the north front of the Post Office Department Extension, were raised to their yesterday, on the second story of the edi- ice, by means of the ingenious derricks erected on top of the building.

Mr. Thomas Orme, our gentlemanly and effi- cient chief of police, appears somewhat indig- nant at the account given in our letter of Monday ‘last, of the Vansciver case, and proceeds to give what he calls “a truthfal and unprejudiced” statement of it. He says that ‘Justice Reaver called on Messrs. and Evans of the po- lice to aid constables Gross and Trunnel in the arrest of Vansciver,’’ &c., and the Police, he in- forms us, “arrested Vansciver and son, and car- tied them to the watch-house, while Messrs. Trunnell and Gross went to arrest the other par- ties, which they did, and also lodged them in the watch.house, where every facility was af- forded them for their safe-keeping.”” as phat on keeping be ls should be affo cers for ing robbers in the G watch-house? It strikes us that it ie Property the province of the Police and night-watch, to themselves look to the safe-keeping of prisoners placed in the watch-house, instead of affording others facilities for doing so. But now, for the truthfulness of this statement, Justice Reaver informs us that when he, in company of the po- lice, arrived at the Place where the prisoners were found, officers Trunoell and Gross had them in custody, and were removing the stolen articles from Vansciver’s sloop ; and that, in re- ality, all the parties were arrested by officers Trunnell_and Gross. Again Mr. Orme states, in speaking of the ren- contre with the ‘city party,” that “when near the bridge he heard the clatter of stones, and di- retly afterward the report of Pistols ; and that he immediately ran towards the bridge, and on his way he was joined by four other officers. When there he found Messrs. Craig Thomas, and Robinson, of the police; the rowdies having fled across the bridge.” Thus, by Mr. Orme’s confession, the entire regular police force of the town went to make the arrest of these rowdies, but did not succeed. On the contrary, the police (with a single exception) on bein: attacked by the rowdies, turned and tied headed yy the valiant captain. In conclusion, Mr. Orme says of these rowdies: ‘* Should they hereafter pay us a simi- lar visit, we shall be prepared to give them a much warmer Los tea »” So the Chief of Pc- lice invites the rowdies of Washington to visit the city, and promises them a warmer reception. Query: does he propose to make them warm by running away again and suffering the rowdies to pursue himself and his forces? We would also like to inquire of Mr. Orme where he was between 10 and tt o’clock the same night,wben Officer Gross arrested T Morgan for disorderly conduct in Mrs. Kengla’s restaurant? The officer conveyed his prisoner to the watch- house, when he found the door locked, and spent a considerable time in endeavoring to bring som? of the night watch to the house, ia order to incar cerate the prisoner. Any unprejudiced citizen of Georgetown will agree with us in saying that our independent police are of more value to the town than half a dozen such paid forces as we now have. Business on the wharves and the canal is quite brisk No change in the markets since our last. A large number of ladies and gentlemen will avail themselves of the fine opportunity offered by the moonlight excursion that goes down the river this evening, to pene a delightful time on water by moonlight. From the gentlemen hav- ing it in charge, we can safely perdict a glorious time for all who go down. The engine house of the Vigilant is undergoing a thorough repair. ‘The hall is being papere anew, and many other tasteful improvements going on.
