Tue Bankrurtcy Vourr.—This court, es- tablished under the act of last Congress, known as the bankrupt law, of which Mr. J Sayles Brown is register, is now in sion daily, And as it appears that many miscon- Strue the law, it may not be amiss fer us to Publish the following: The law is for the pur- pose of giving an honest debtor, who is unable to dliquidate the elaims agaimss him, every reasonable facility for obtaining a discharge trom his debts if he is willing to surrender his property for the benefit of his creditors—that as, all he owns not exempt by law. To claim the benefits of the act the petitioner must have resided or carried on business in the District for six months immediately pioceding the date of filimg the petition, and his debts must not exceed $300. Under the act $500 ‘worth of property is exempted, and under an- other act $300 worth of property is also ex- empt, both of which exemptions a bankrupt may avail himself of. In cases where there is no property above what is exempted, and creditors do not come forward to oppose the proceedings, the petitioner may, in sixty days trom the cemmencement ef tl his discharge, and where there are asse dividends he may do so after six months. it is generally supposed that the costs in tbese cases are heavy, but whatever may be said in regard to costs in other portions of the country, the costs in this District are light, in but few cases running up to $50, and in the large majority the fees range from $30 to $50. ‘The law authorizes the register to receiv Geposit of $50 for costs, but as that officer is disposed to conduct the business as economi- caily as possible, he is requiring but $30 de- posit in cases where there are no assets. It should be remembered that under the pro- yisions of the law, after one year from the date of its passage no one can obtain a discharge from his debts whose estate will not pay cents on the dollar unless all bis creditors con- sent to his discharge. tis generally supposed, that many now in the District neede the ben- efits of this act, but comparatively few have commenced proceedings, being deterred, doubt: . Mr. Brown has es- tablished his oMce in the upper story of the east wing of the City Hall, where he can be found during business hours eaeb day. a, ASE BALL.—The Jefferson Base Ball Oiub, ‘his city, returned lust evening in the late ain, highly pleased with their trip, and loud in their praises of the Philadelphia base- ball Arrangements had been made to play a mateh game with the Quaker City Club, of Philacelphia, yesterday morning, but for some unexplained Teason that club declined play- ire. ‘The game yesterday between the Olympic and Union, in the White Lot, resulted ina score of 22 to 15, in favor of the former, at the nd of the sixth mnings, with the following score OLYMPIC.

Early in the evening the East Washington Zouaves held their regular meet- ing at Odd Fellows’ Hali, Capt. McCathran in the chair, and Alex. Cook secretary, at which several new members were elected, and a ma- jority of the members subscribed for the new uniforms, which they expect to receive ina few weeks. The uniform will be loose blue trowsers and jacket trimmed with silver cord, and white leggings, and it presents a very neat appearance. Wednesday and Friday evenings were fixed for drill. After some minor busi- Bess had been transacted the company fell in line for drill. Tne Washington Zouaves, in fall uniform, beaded by martial music, ap- peared about this time, and some time wus Spent in social imtercourse. Capt. Harrover and Lieuts. Abbott and Baxter, of the new company of National Guards, were also pres- ent to assure the companies that the Nationals would unite with them in any way tending to promote the interests of the militay. The two panies then proceeded to the neighborhood of the Wallach Schoo! House, where they went through the “school of the company,” after which they separated, the companies cheering esch other. There is but little doubt, from the spirit shown, that soon we will have some crack companies of citizen soldiery here. =e imPROVEMENTS.—Dr. P. J.

This extraor- dinary performance is alone worth more than the price of admission, but in addition, Pro- fessor Macalister gives away one bundred presents every evening.

Every in- quiry and search has been made for him, but without avail,and the impression now pre- vails in the minds of some that, while in a fit of mental aberration, (with which he was sometimes afficted,)he must have wandered along the wharves at night, and, unobserved, either fallen or thrown himself overboard. “Russian John,” although almost leading the life of confirmed misantbrope, and a man of the most eccentric habits, yet still potsessed many noble and generous traits. n personal attire he was exceedingly neg- lectful, and scarcely ever thonght it worth while to buy clothing, unless it was necessary to cover bis person or keep himself protected trom the cold. It has not been unusual for him to attend church on Sunday in his tattered garments and brimless hat. where he generally remained an attentive listener throughout the services, and if a collection should be t:ken up, (a thing by no means unusual on such oc- casions,) he invariably emptied his pockets of (heir entre contents for the cause. It is said that be always made it a point to give at least a dollar, and sometimes he would contribute a much greater sum. The week succeeding thece couations, “Russian Jobn” ob:erved the most Tigid economy of food, it not unfrequently being the casé that he has gone adty or two without anything to eat. He was widely known in Washington, and should the worst surmises be realized, there will be much regret at his fate. Re cee repent Manners aT THE OPERA.—It is very doubtful whether persons who annoy others by their rudeness at public places of amuse- ment evcr read, but inthe hope that this par- agraph may meet the eye of some ottenders, snd cause them to see their conduct in the same light itis viewed by otbers, we propose to saya word as to the behavior of certain young people at the opera. In the first place the innocent dalliance of levers who because they occupy a private box seem to think they are beyond the observation of others, may cre- ate some amusement, and injure no one but themselves, but whenjthey laugh and talk co loudly as to drown the most beantifal notes of Miss Ricbings or Mrs. Seguin, the audience bas a right to complain. in the next place “pea-nuts" have no connection with theatri- cals, and the complacense with which certain well-dressed young men, will sitand munch them to the annoyance of every one in their Vicinity is simply disgusting, and we are sur- prised ‘to find any one in a Washington audi- ence, making any pretensions to reapectability, who ean be guilty of such apractice. To the very large number who annoy their neighbors and spoil the music by remarks on the per- formers, the musie, the audience, &c., &c., we have nothing to say, as they are incorrigible and exist in every cliy. ‘The cries of the ven- ers of “‘orp-p-ples.” (apples!) “op-p-p-pra books,” &c., during the playing of ‘ihe Sere tnree and at other times, is another intolerable nuisance, which should be abated, butit is one over which the audience has no control. —_—__ Orgnine or Dry Goops.—Mesers. William R. Riley & Bros. are now opening a large and splendid ascortment of new and fasbionable goods just received from the New York im- porters. Ladies will do well to call at No. 36, Central Stores, and examine their stock, which they edvertiseat the lowest cash prices. They are enterprising and accommodaiing dealers, and their representations as to their goods can be relied on. Merchants like Riley & Bros., who are doing so much to build up ihe business interests of our city, ehould be encouraged in their efforts. It fs to the interest of our citizens to build up first-class houses in this city, so that they wiil no longer bave to go to Baltimore and the North for bargaing, as was the case afew years since. It only needs a visit to some of our best establishments here, and then to the same class of houses in the Northern cities, to cone vince purchasers that nothing is to be gained in the quality of geods or saving of money by buying elsewhere. gs Ruwaway.—Yesterday evening. about five o’clock, a span of black horses attached to a light carriage, the property of Dr. Phillips, while standing in front of his door, corner of 12th and F streets, became frightened at one of the new F street cars, and immediately turned around the corner, and dashed at a furious treet. The driver, James Kaiph, saw the horses starting. sprang and caught the rear one by the bridle but the horses dragged him around the corner, when the bridle came off the horse's head, and the man was run over, sustaining a cut on the left side of bis head, and several bruises on the side and ribs, which, together, were very painfol. When near the Treasury vepari- Ment the horses ran over a quantity of stone and iron, breaking the carriage badly, and becoming detached from it, they continued up Joth street and Vermont avenue, stopping at the Government stables on K street, —_o—_—_.

Walsh took cut the note from his pocket, and presenting it to Goleman, asked hfm if he could deny that. Coleman took hold of one corner, and turnmg to Crow- Jey, Who was silting oa the hub of a wagon wheel, asked Crowley if he wrote the note. Crowley took hold ofa corner of it,and “they made aenap at it and took it.” Crowley gave the note to Walsh in the first place, and Cole- man did not bays the note in his hands till the time when it was torn. The prosecutor had previously asked Crowley to give bim a deed of trust to secure the note, and Crowley told him they had nothing buta horse. The prosecutor said he immediately went to the ststion-house to complain, and did not think that the note coulu have oeen torn in so many pieces, when he left Crowley and Cole- man at the wagon. Upon the advice of some oue he went back and picked up the pleces, @und returned to have a warrant issned. Tue justice decided that he could sce no evidence of malice or @ felonious intent on the part of Mr. Coleman. Certainly. the mere fact of bis taking hold of the note when presentsd, and his inquiry for information from Crowley, do not indicate malice, althongh ss soon as Crow- ley laid hold of it a sudden saap was made and the note was torn; and the prosecuting witness himself testified that Voleman had not previously had the note in his hands.
