It was a rather hard-looking but exceed- ingly chivalvous crowd that gathered in the police court at the 5 o'clock session last even- ing. They were the witnesses and principals and interested parties in a cutting affray that oceurred on the island a few days ago. The principal was a carpenter named King, who assaulted a fellow workman named Jones with a knife on unday afternoon. Jones stood up before the court with his coat but- toned upto the hem and showing several long and ugly looking rents where King's knife had parted the fabric. One cut was on the breast, and another on the shoulder, while several smaller ounes on var- fous parts of the garment showed that King bad a knife that would cut and he knew how to use it. Jones' right hand was in asling and he moved like he was in pain whenever he stir but he looked at the owering form of his assailapt and difdently asked the judge to dismiss the case, stating that Le did not desire to prosecute King, for the reason that he felt sure the assault’ was un utentional, or, at least, was not committed with malicious intent, and would never have been made if King had not been drunk, King timidly raised his voice and told the judge that it was his first offense and if let off it would be his last; that he loved Jones like a brother, and would fight for him hereafter to the bitter end, There was gen- erally a good veport given concerning King, and his friends raised the plea that he was & poor carpenter with a prospect of a good steady winter's job before him if he was let Off ut once, but which would be lost if he was sent w jail. Judge McGee finally consented 1o dismiss the cuse without prejudice and tax the costs to the defendant, 'This was quickly l agreed to, wud thon all the wituesses showed ptany Court trouble their magnanimity by refusing to wituess fees, King left assuring that he o would make any more for city oficers.

Yesterday, between 12 and 1 o'clock, Theo- dore Bray, the woll known livery man, suf- fered a severe accident, which for a time gave his friends a great deal of uneasiness. He had dined with Dr. Seybert at the Ogden house and the physician had returned to his office and had left his herse and buggy ut the hotel to be driven down by Mr. Bray and taken tohis stable, where the animal was to be fed and cared for. Mr. Bray drove down Washington avenue and turned up Scott street on the way to the stable, On the corner of Scott street and Washington avenue the animal took fright at something and started to mun away. Mr Bray is oue of the best horsemen in the city and had gotten the excited animal about under control when he reached Broadway. There the animal took another fright at some imaginary object and dashed across the street at full speed. He was headed straight for Lonie & Metzgar's reswurant and was run- ning at fult speed, and Mr. Bray got his head turned up Broadway just as he reached the curb, Tuhe turn was too she The bugey was overturned and Bray was thrown vio- lently out.

Nothing 18 move certain than that the age at which sheep can be fattened is being constantly lessened. During re- centy the fat stock clubs have been compelled to entively recast their pr lists. Classes of lambs have been insti- tuted, and they have become the leading feature among the sheep class These illustrations of early ave too strong logic for old feede hold the opinion that an animal must have completed its growth of frame be- fore it can be profi ned, Al- ternate fatting and starving will no lon- ger pay in the process of making a cor- tain weight of meat from a certain quan- tity of fo0d, and the system of carrying on animals to certain age on merely sustenance diet before com- mencing to fatten them, is also proven to be unprofituble feeding.
