Prof. Bailey bas been most favorably known as a distinguished elocutionist for some time in the northern cities, and we are happy to find that the reading in our public schools is to receive Rew impetus from bis hands, as well as the fact that our citizens will bave an opporta- nity of hearing some of his masterpieces at Wesley Chapei on Friday night. SSS S GARROTING AN Orricer.—Saturday night, about mine o'clock, three discharged soldiers, somewhat drunk, were inclined to be disor- derly on 7th, near H street, when officemHig- gins, of the Third Ward, went to them, and advised them to be quiet. One of the soldiers seized the officer around the neck and tried to pull bim back ward to the ground: another tried to strike him. Higgius gave the one in front a blow with his club that ended his fighting for the time,but the other would not let go his hold, and Higgins struck over his shoulder with the club, and touched the garroter in the tace, and be let go and run. Higgins caught him, and carried him to the Central Guard- house. He guve his name as Stephen Fay, and Justice Thompson sent him to the workhouse. - ° »% Case.—Yesterday morning, a mn suffe © with small-pox. pre- sented himself in front of the police headguar- ters, and asked to be sentto the hospital.

There were at the date of nder ist,) 227 inmates of the cessity of anew jailis earnestly commended, and the vicinity of the asylum suggesied as a most proper site. ——-- Sate or Money.—At the regular monthly meeting of the Mechanics’ Butiding Associa- tion, on last Wednesday night, the money brought the unprecedentedly high premium of 66% per cent.

Donly spewk for myself, and I pronounce the whole statement as false; and if the Chief of Police, or any of the Board of Police, knows of apy such magistrate, and fails to rale him before tbe Supreme Court, they themselves are unworthy of holding the position they do, and shoald béremoved. Why don’t the board name those magistrates? or are they afraid! They Will refiect op some of their own appointments. 1 would like for the board to name those mag- ne public will have a chance to see that t ard means to do what is best for all. I sball huve more to say, probably, in fature, on this subject. Your servant, ” F. A. Boswetr, Justice of the Peace. between E aud F streets. 5S.
