This balloon business is one of the chicf at- tractions at River View just now, but it would be a very charming place without it. It is new and it presents the features of newness. Most of the trees are small, but they are growing well, and there is an atmosphere of prosperity about the resort that always makes folks feel ‘There can be no more delightful place for a Lot evening, situated as it is on the eastern bank of the river, so as to getall the air that may happen to be stirring. 1¢ is high and free from mosquitoes—who pleasure resort thet was not?

Lillie Johnson could not complain of being in s crowded cell at the Police Court Sat- urday, for she was the only female among the two dozen prisoners, and Prison Keeper Madigan gave her a celi all to herself. The twenty-three men and boys were put in two ceils. Being the only female in the motley crowd, Lillie was placed at the head of the Procession, although she had no banner to carry into court. Policeman McNeely com- plained against her and charged that she was guilty of bad conduct on 26th street. Lillie told her side of the case and Judge Harper gave her thirty days in default of bonds. ALLOWED TO Go. Sam Wood was drunk and Policemen Russell Dean and Si Lewis arrested him. Sam is a resident of Norfolk, and would have been home Legros had he not indulged in the habit of bending his elbow too often. “Lonly intended to lock bim up until boat time,” said Officer Lewis, “but when placed tinder arrest he used auch profanelanguage that charged bim with being drunk and disorderly.” The officers were satisfied to let him go and the judge took his personal bonds. Edward Fields stated that be wanted to go to Norfolk, but the court had no assurance that he would fulfill the promise and a fine of $5 was imposed. He was char, with being disorderly. a TRE JOBNSONS MIXED UP. When the Georgetown contingent arrived Policemen Passeno and Upperman were re- quired to take the oath several times. Among their victims wero two members of the Johnson family, aud Deputy Clerk Harper had trouble to tell *"tother from which.” Each was charged with being a vagrant as well as being divorderly on the street. When Jim Johnson was called his friend, William, alias “Nonny” Johnson, responded and after some difficulty they were separated and tried, Bonds or twenty days and $5 or fifteen days cach were their sentences, and they went down ether. "Yeznes: itley,.conraet’ uniec the ‘name 6 “Mickey” Hicks, was another member of the Georgetown party, and he was accused of being a“vag.” He was tolerably weil dressed, but his appearance indicated that he had been drinking liquor. ‘The ofticers said that they had found dim on Washington street. Lawyer Law- ton had the prisoner make # statement, but Judge Harper thought that twenty days woulddo him good, and that was the sentence of the court. George Levenberry, another prisoner from across the creek, was tried on milar charge. He was found asleep in a lumber yard, so the otiicers said, und his personal bonds were taken. TOOK THE THIRTY DAYS. “T'm guilty of the charge,” was Sam Dong- lass’ plea to a charge of vagrancy, and the judge added: “Bonds or thirty days.” Ho took the thirty days because he could not get the bonds. Whisky was the cause of John Lanahan's be- ing in the procession, and after hearing his statement the courtrequired him to give bonds or go down for thirty days. James Robertson plead guilty to a charge of being disorderly and he stepped back because he could not settle the bill of $5 charged against him. Samuel Holly, a little colored orphan who lives ia Garfiel i, was in court on a charge of throwing stone.’ He had good friends and they had put up collateral for him. Sammy admitted nis guilt, but he stated that be threw the stone to defend himself against a dog and the stone accidentally went through a window. “You violated the law,” said the judge, “but I guess you had @ right to do it.” His col- lateral was returned. When the next case was called Judge Harper handed over a piece of paper for the prisoner to stand on so that he could be seen. The Prisoner was a colored boy who was not tall enough f> be seen over the prison rail, and the judge, calling him “Jack,” asked him his age. He aid not know, and the judge after some dis- cussion told him 'to go home. —_—_ GEORGETOWN, A HORSE WITH A HISTORY. It has been stated that the last horse that sniffed the powder of the great rebellion died a short time ago, but Mr. George Mortimor, a farmer, who resides near Arlington, Va., says he can bring reliable neighbors to prove that the old bay horse which he owns and every two weeks drives into town not only followed the Union army for some time over the hills and through the valleys of Virginia, but was captured und branded by the confederates and remained in their possession until the battle of Berkeley Springs was fought, when the invol- untary renegade was recaptured by the northern boys. Then the four-footed warrior went throug the remainder of the struggle with the stamp of two armies on his hide. His owner states that when he was purchased in ‘61 he was ten y old, #0 that forty summers and forty Winters have passed over his now toothless head. Of course he is un- able to pull heavy loads, and he is not as plump now as he was, but all pronounce him a wonderful animal. His partne: in harness is reputed to be thirty-five years cld, but his life lias been only an ordinary one, and in personal appearance be is far below the war horse. Every other Saturday this ancient team may be seen on M street in the neighborhood of the market, and there is always some one ready and wilimg to listen to their histories, which ‘their owner is more than anxious to tell.
