Ephraim Halleck and the col- ored fugitive, Allen Mann, the details of which we have alseady given tothe public. The officer met with his late colored prisoner at Franklin, Va., and net knowing of bis release, instant! laid hold of him, to make bim explain how he came there He laughed all over his face, as he turned and pointing to Mr. 9) le, remarked, “Thar’s my master, sir!’ This introduction led to a conversation between Mr. Spruile and Officer Allen, aud it was understood that as soon as Mr. S. got home he would have the necessar pa made out, and have a requisition from the iv ernor for Halleck sent to Officer Allen directly. Officer Allen says the ple with whom he con- versed in North C: are very anxious to see Halleck, believing him to be connected with some of the vessels coming there from te North.

The new buildings nd workshops erected and pat into active use daring the last eighteen months have greatly bet- tered the appearance of things. Of these we may mention the Lotus shope and t the tasteful muster- bouse as amon; most noticeable. Greater neat- ness is observable than formerly; the areas and spaces are kept more cleanly, and free from lum- ber; old unsightly trees have been cut down, and there is a freshness and spruceness that strikes the visiter agreeably, The principal job now on hand in the machine and boller shops seems to be the machi: for the fine new ler Pensa- cola, which is pow at Norfolk lergoing the process of coppering ; when that is fi she will be brought We to the Washington navy yard to receive her boilers, which are nearly finished. ‘These boilers are worth a visit.

MISTAKING A QuaRTER EaGie For a Dime — Last night Mrs. Dant took her little boy to a stand in the Center Market to get a bowl of coffee, they coming to the market from a distance, and want- ing their supper. In Paying for their meal she }, two dimes, but afterward discovered that one was a $2.50 piece. She went to the man, whose name was Keyser, and de- manded the return of the gold Nece; but Keyser denied having received it. warrant was is- sued by Justice Donn for $2.40, which was served and judgment rendered fur the plaintiff. Keyser was directed to pay forthwith, and started away todoso. Such mistakes are of common occur- rence, and care should a be taken to keep gold and silver separate. The nickle cent. the ve centand ten cent pieces are easily mistaken at night for bright goid of corresponding size. Licenses.—The police officers a it to be pay- ing especial attention to the viskebeen oe thelicense laws. It iscertainly a duty which ought to be performed, not by fits and starts, but regularly at all times; and not upon the followers of any par- ticular business, but upon all who come under the provisions of the law. lolatorsof the law are not only those wlio deal in the markets, but there are numerous outsiders trafficking inthe city without license, and are thus competing with our resident dealers, at an advantage of less ex- pense.
