The foliowimg crder was mad It having been represented to this courton authority entitled to confidence that at the June term, 1567. of the. Oriminal Court, held by Mr. Justice Fisher, that on the 10th day of August iast an order was made by the said Justice in the following terms, and -aid order ‘was then entered on the recordsof said court : +On the. 2d day of July last, during the pro- gress of the trial of John H. Surratt for the murder of Abraham Lincoln, immediately aiter the court had taken a recess until the | following morning, as the presiding justice was descending from the bench,” Joseph H. Bradiey, Esq. accosted him in a rade and insulting msnner, charging the judge with having offered him a series | of “imsulis from the bench from the commencement of the trial. The Judge dis- claimed any intention whatever of passing any insult and assured Mr. Bradley that he enter- tained for him no other feelings but those of respect. Mr. Bradley so farfrom accepting th explanation or disciaimer, thereupon threat ened the Judge with personal chastisment, & he unders‘ood bim. No court can administe justice or Ive if i's judges are to be threatened ‘with persona) violence on all occasions when ever the irascibility of counsel may be excited by su imaginary insult. The offence of Mr. Brad +y is one which even his years will no pailiate. It cannot be overlooked nor go un punished as a contempt of Uourt. It is there fore ordered that his name be stricken from the roll of Attorneys practicing in ‘his court.” ‘And it having been aiso credibly represented to the court that immediately after the said order was announced the following language ‘was employed by the said Joseph H. Bradley. in the hearing of and addressed to the said Justice, during the sitting of the said court «Mr. Bradley.—Has the ceurt adjourned ? udge Fisber.—No, sir. -Mr. Bradley.—Then betore it does adjourn, 1 desire to say, m the presence of thisaudience, that the statement you have read is utterly jee, from beginning to end.” And that on the ame dsy, and immediately after the adjourn- ment of said Conrt, the said Joseph Bradley tollowed the said Justice into one of the street cars in this city. and there and then handed to him a note in the following terms, written and signed in the proper hand of the ssid Bradley: “WaAsiiNGoToN,August 6, 1967.—Hon. Grorge P. Fisher—Sir: Tn the aitercation which oc- curred between us, wBea you returned to the court-room after (he adjournment on the 2d of July last, you observed that you were thea sick, and were pleased to add, “You know where to find me, and 1 hold myselt respon- sible in every form tor whatever 1 say or do,” or words to tha: effect, after which yon ap- plied to me the most opprobrious epithets. ‘There is but one interpretation of such an in- timation received among gentlemen. 1 told you 1 could wait, and 1 am gratified to find you have recovered, and that the trial of the then pending case being now closed, we are both at liberty. That no time mey be unnecessarily lost,I beg you wiil let me know, as soon as you conveni- ently can, when it will suit you to meet meout of this District, that we may arrange to our mutual satisfaction the points ot difference be- tween us, without the risk andodigm which ‘might accompany any controversy here or in ublic. Piyiih the same view, Itake the liberty to band you this note in person. And am, Sir, your most obedient servant. Jos. H. BRADLEY.” And said conduct and language requiring, in our opinion, investigation by this court, it tberetore ordered that the said Joseph H. Erediey show cause, on or before the 4th day of November next, why he should not be pun- ished tor contempt of this court, by reason of taid offensive conduct and language towards one of its members, and relating to the ffocial Bets of said justice And itis further ordered that until the final Gisposition of this order the said Joseph H. Hiradiey shall continue suspended from prac- ce im this court. ‘The cases of the property of Dr. Cornelius Boyle and Col. H. B. Tyler, sold under a de- cree of confiscation, were taken up.

The Mill at Aquia Creek To. KELLY AND PARKLNSON. Last evening there was considerable excita. ment about town, in consequence of the arri- val in this city of Tommy Kelly, of Philadel- phia, and Billy Parkinson, of Pottsville, who bis morning, for the third time, met in the ring to decide who was the best man, and to claim the eum of $1,200 put up on the Contest, Yesterday it was given out that the mill would be across the Long Bridge by some, and by otDers that it would be down the river; but during the afternoon nothing definite could be determined. Parkinson arrived here on Sunday afternoon, and last evening, with his triends, was about the depot when his ad- versary, Kelly, arrived Efforts were made during the afternoon to engage @ boat to take the party down, but without success, and this being known at the depot, a consulta- tion was held at the “Shades” near by, which Tesulted in the party leaving for the mail boa! which left at 7 o'clock. Quite a large number of the Sealy nad on their arrival proceeded to the Ram’s Head, (John Roney’s,) corner of 13th and D streets; and word reaching there that the parties had left, considerable excite- ment was caused. «Oyster Jack” was promi- nent in this party, end was loud in hls denun- ciation of the «beats.” it was currently be- lieved that this was the fact; and reporters of the city papers, on making inquiry at the “Shades” and other places, came to the con- clusion that they were “beats,” and about mid- night, wet to the skin, they retired to their homes. It appears, however, that the going to the boat in the evening was a ruse by :he Principals and their friends, and that as soon us they reached the southern mail boat whart they quietly took a carriage and drove to the Kirkwood House, where they stopped last night. This morning about fiv. o'ciock that locality was tolerably lively, and by 6:20, when the mail boat left, ‘there were some forty or fifty on board, includ- ing the principals. Kelley was‘ accom nied by his seconds, Tom Alien and Billy Lain, and Parkingon by Bill Ryall and Billy Edwards. Oyster Jack, Mike alias Eng- lish, Jobn Onarles, Reddy Thomas, Uld Biil Tooce, and others were on board. The crowd is stated to have been an exceedingly hard one, and theirappearance ‘ consternated” the pas- seagers, Who anxiously inquired as to what was out. Before the boat left several of our indefatigable detective officers tuok a look tbrough the boat, and noticed some of the best known charagters on board. (Quite a number of those who came here to witness the fight were left behind, some because they got too drunk and ovyerslept themselves, and others because they couldn't raise the «« spons,” ee ee TEE SToRM.—-One of the heaviest rain storms which has been experienced withla the rec- ollection of the “oldest inhabitants,” passed over this section yesterday and last night. Some damage has been sustained to shipping and city property, though not so much asthe severity Of the gale gave reason to anticipate. ‘The wharves along the Potomac were inun- dated this morning, and pathways leading thereto completely covered for several inches with water. At Fowler’s Wharf the tide rose two feetand upwards above the platform, while Sixth Street Wharf would have been washed away had it pot been for the heavy weight of stone and lumber that kept it firmly imbedded. Between 12th and 14thstreets the river swept over the wharyes, thereby driving from be- neath hundreds of rats that had hitherto besa nye from similar intrnsions. The tright- ened animals, on finding their domicils in- | vaded, scampered away in every direction, in the greatest alarm, effording fine sport for a score or more of coal dealers, cartraen, and others, who chased them about, and bringing r clubs and stenes, caused Many an one to bite the dust. A half torpid reptile, was compelled by the “exigencies of the times” to slowly squirm bis way from beneath an old wood pile.

She was due there at (o'clock this morning. and it is supposed ber detention was in conse- quence of the prevailing storm. Mach injury tocewers and new buildings | occurred in the city. The extensive sewer on joth street, between D and E, ot which Messrs. Robey and King are contractors, gave way for several feeton each side, burying beneath it the iron pipes, brick work, and excayation, to re- pair which it will require an expenditure of several hundred dollars, and the Jabor for sey- eral days of the whole force engaged on the improvement. ‘The handsome and recently fitted up restau- rant of P. Dubant, on the corner of Pennsy!- vania avenue and 6th etreet, was overflowed with water from the street, and sustained elight damage.

George 5S. Gideon. Esq., to present the wishes of the meeting in regard to the subject of restoring the two-horse cats apom the route. A pleas- ant interview of some length took piace, and in reply to the request of the committre, the President of the road stated that he had put these one-horse cars upon the road by direc. tion of the board of directors, and had not power to take them off without their autbvor- ity; but he would take the earliestopportunity to consult them, and be governed by their di- rections. Their charter, he said, required them to run only every 15 minutes on that branch. They were running four cars on fifteen minutes time, when a number of persone residing on 14th street sent a yery respectfni petition, set- ting forth the want of accommodation, where- upon two additional cars were put upon the Toad, muking six: After ronning these six cars seme three months, it was found that the re- ceipts were not increased, hence the Company, to save expenre, and at the sametime to render commodation by more frequent tripe. determined to put eight one horee cars on tbe road, and run in five or six minutes time. T ecommodation of trips every five or six minutes, instead of every fifteen minutes, was thus afforded. In connection with this subject it may be added that at the ratiroad meeting on Friday night, Bir. Ptau siated that the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Company returned a less income to the revenue officers than did the F street line. Were this statement trae, It would be evident that the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Company were ¢ iraud- ing the revenue department. The officers of that company, not being willing to rest under such an imputation, have procured from Col- lector Clephane the following letter, showing the statement to be incorrect: United States Internal Revenue, Collector's ces Districi of Columbia, Washington, Oct. et Geo. S Gideon, President W. and G. -R. Sir: In reply to your note of quiry with reference to the correctness of the statement by Mr. Pfau that your company re- turned a less income than the F street line, I have to state that the statement is incorrect.
