CITY INTELLIGENCE. Police Court. There was not as much business done in the Recorder's Court yesterday as might have been expected from the number of person on the spree the day before. But these parties appear to have had more discretion than men usually have who go in for a day's sport. They seem to have gone just so far and no farther.

George Wilson, who was brought up the other day in female attire under the assumed name of Mary Washington, was up again yesterday. It appears that the old feud between him and Em Battles (the notorious,) which originated in her jealousy of George while in female apparel, still continues. Em accused him of abusing her and indulging in language unbecoming a gentleman. The charge was sustained, and a fine of five dollars imposed. Michael O'Flaherty was arrested for cursing, abusing, and trying to shoot Mary Nichols.

Mike appeared to codsider this not by any means a punishable offense, and while in the calaboose amused himself with smashing the chairs, tables, indiscriminately. A fine of ten dollars was imposed on him. This excited his indignation to the highest pitch and he affirmed that "be jabers, it was not in ould Ireland a we bit of shport 'ud be luk'd at as an offince. Bad luck to the murhathin that thry for to prevent a therin' poor furriner from enjoyin' the comforts of life. Ye can jist foine an' be d-d, Mishther Recorder, I can lick the best of ye's, ye murtherin' shpalpanes." Edward Murrill it appears, while under the influence of intoxicating drink, entered the shop of a fellow craftsman and got into a fight.

In the melee that ensued he accidentally struck the door of another house with a stone. The owner came out and assisted in punishing the bold Edward for the row he had raised. Edward was taken away by an officer, with many bruises and a swelled head. His wounds were bound up with a No. 10 shinplaster.

Tuft's Patent call the attention of our city readers and those of our country friends who may happen to visit Chattanooga, to the patent fence on exhibition Fourth and Market streets. near the corner It is a good fence and has the advantage of of being easily moved. requiring no posts, and It is equally for a good permanent or temporary enclosure, and may be obtained at the rate of $2 per pannel of twelve feet. The President of the Rankin cultural Society for 1855 states County this fence as beyond all "that he regards comparison the best adapted in all respects of now in any use for the enclosure of public grounds." Those who are in want of fencing would do well to examine it. It can be bought in quantities to suit of Richards and Handman, at the Yard old United States Ship in this city.

AN Thursday, Mr. Brown, who is employed the rolling mill, was struck in the leg by one of the stray bullets that wandered about so plentifully. The wound is not dangerous, but very painful. The ball passed nearly through the leg, lodging just under the skin on the other side, whence it was taken with a knife. MPORTANT TO TRAVELERS, AND SHIPPERS.

were burned in Knoxville on Tuesday night, between the hours of eight and twelve. The first, says the Commercial, was Renshaw's building on Gay street, the second was one of the huts on the other side of the river, and the third, the old Church. These fires occurring at uniform intervals, led the as the cause, who, by dint cendiarism police to suspect of circ*mstances, fixed upon Robert Allison and Robert Flanagan as the gulty parties whom they arrested about one o'clock, and lodged in the calaboose. They were yesterday taken before Magistrates Jourolmon and Morrow for trial. The evidence, though circ*mstantial, clearly sustained the suspicions of the policemen, and the result was, they were committed for trial at the next term of the Circuit Court.

Neither defendant being able to furnish the required bail, ($2,000) they were sent to jail. The buildings that were fired were all unoccupied, but the two that were in the city were adjacent to others that are, and had the flames gotton once under headway, it would be estimatothe amount of life and impossible to property that would have been lost. The act was clearly the result of that heartless abandon of human nature that is consequent to evil associates, late hours, idleness and drink, and should be taken by every young man as a warning to aveid such, and by every parent to use every effort to their children out of the keep street after night. ted. Yesterday The soldiers, was not as iteppears, lively as some have entirely finished their purchases and their carouse of the day before.

All seem to have betaken themselves to work or to the country. It is astonishing with what facility discharged soldiers settle down to the business of everyday life. One day the liberated heroes exult in their new found freedom, and the next they are engaged so much a month, or are gone back at into the by- ways of the country for tens and hundreds of miles in search of relatives or friends whom they left early in the war. In many and many instances, we fear, a sad disappointment awaits them. Where they expect to meet with sympathetic friends to hear their tales of adventure, of suffering or of joy, they may find only a desolated waste.

Ah, well! such griefs last but for a few months. New friends are soon found, old ones are forgotten, and 1 the only trace of the former life is a shade more of seriousness in the deportment, a trifo less of mirthfulness in social intercourse.

A SLIGHT -A case was before the Freedmen's Bureau, yesterday, in which a negro accused another of shooting at him so carelessly that the ball passed through his coat on the top of his shoulder. Being cross-examined, it appeared that the ball did not pass through his coat but distinctly whispered in his ear. Being sworn, it appeared that it did not exactly pass by his head but most unquestionably struck the ground somewhere near him.

If there was any further means of eliciting the truth it would probably appear that the accused was at least intending to buy pistol. We are constantly receiving favors from the Southern Express.
