A little bird whispered to us that in the executive session o' Council lasi night James L. hver-iiart and K. Y. Mann were recommended to Judge McKibben as Magistrates, and Joe Dolman asC nstable. We also gleaned other information, which at a future day will be of more interest to tbe public As Bro a Rascal as Ever.

-A writer in the Lit tie Rock Gazette tells a good story. He was formerly the master of a slave known as Crow Sam, a great thief and a worthless fellow generally. The writer says Sam went into the army at the com mencement ol the war, ana lie saw no more of him till it was over. The rest of the story in the writer's own words is as follows: After peace was made I moved over into an adjoining county and went to work try ing lo renair mv broken tortune. Une oay a negro that 1 had working for me knocked down one ot my horses, which so enrngeu me that I struck him several times with a cane, lie went away anu retnrneu witii a constable, who summoned mo to appear next day before a magistrate.

Ollicers were not quite so numer ous then as now, and the magistrate office was several miles away. Well, sir, when I got there, who should I see on the bench but old Crow Sam. He was fat and greasy, and had on an enormous pair of spectacles. When everything had been made ready, Court was opened, and old giving me a searching look, remarked: "Tears that I've seed you afore." "Look here, Sam," I said, "I don't, liketo he mixed up this way; try to settle this affair without malice." "De law is gwine lo hah its direck course," said Sam. "Things hab kinder changed since we was In business together, but de principle ob de nigger haben't revoluted.

Dis nigger is as big a rascal as 1 used to be; so, Mars John, I'll discharge you, Hinging de black ape in de cost." YotJBO Tiiavelkrs. On Saturday of last week two little boys, one ten years of age and the other live, reached Cheraw after a week's travel by themselves from Texas. They were given money lo pay their way on trains. They bad a bag of cooked provisions. To each boy's coat was attached a card giving his name, destination and poiflt of departure, and the eldest, had a letter appealing to conductors for assistance and guidance.

They were orphans, their fa' her and mother having died recently, and had been sent for by a relative residing in Chesterfield County. Charleston News and Courier. A PORK SENSATION. Clmrlesi Forbns Charged with Ex. teisiv Swi lulling.

A transaction by which a broker is charged wiih swindling certain pork dealers out of $20,000 was brought to light yesterday evening, and Charles Forbus, the alleged swindler, arrested. Forbus, in con-nection with his partner, Charles Wheeler, had been acting for some time as purchasing agents for SI. Keck. Day before yesterday they bought a large number of bogs of various dealers and paid for them by giving checks on the Merchants' National Bank. Forbus then sold the hogs to Si.

Keck and took a check on the same bank, but before the men from whom he had purchased could present their checks Forbus called at the bank and drew the money not only on his own clteek but ail that was coming to himself and partner, amounting to $23,000. Consequently when tbe holders of tbe checks presented them for payment they were told the checks were no good. The firm of which Police Commissioner Webber is a member hold a check of $0,100, which they received from Forbus, aud, on complaint of Mr. Webber Forbus was arrested In Cumminsville last evening by Oflij cer Hill on suspicion. This morning Forbus was not brought into Court, and Attor-; ney Johnson, of the firm of Johnson, I load-lev A Colston, who appeared for forbus, demanded that his name be placed on the docket, shice it was simply an attempt of the Police Commissioner to nse the police force in collecting a legal debt, but the Judge refused on the ground that he had no authority so to do.

Mr. Johnson then stated that one detective had told him that Forbus was in the Cumminsville Station-house; another had said he was at the Central Station, and that the Chief had refused to give him any infor-mation concerning him. It was an undcr- handed act, he said to compel Forbus to ay the debt, and to frustrate their plans xised to oitain a writ or habeas which would he served on the corpus Chief.

J7. -The Golden Rule, New Orleans to Cincinnati, passed up at 11:30 last night. The Cherokee passed up yesterday ufternoon. Hout-liaiilK' (iiOMSflit. The river receded 1 foot 6 inches since yesterday, and this morning there was 18 feet 5 inches in the channel.

The ice continues to a cumulate, and has a tendency to crowd the shores and endanger barges and other floating property. TSe Buckeye State and Scioto are laid up at Ashland. The ice Is reported from 3X to 4 inches thick yesterday at I ronton but the Condor, without barges, passed there last evening on her way up tli-' river. The steamer H. C.

Yeager is loading at Belmont from tbe Iron Mountain Railroad, to leave for New Orleans Sunday. The -ilver Cloud, which left here Monday for the Tennessee River, has gone into the Green River. Siie fought heavy ice from Rbckport down, and Capt Harry Gilbert concluded it was not safe to proceed further. Capt Alex. Beck man, the wharfboatman at Lawreneeburg, has bought a wharfhoat in the vicinity of Parkersburg, and will locate it at Lawreneeburg us soon ns the condition of the river will permit it to he towed down.

Capt. W. R. Strict, lect has contracted for a new boat to be put in the Manchester and Portsmout i trade. The machinery will be built at Poits-uioiuh and the hull id Irontou.

One oi the most successful steamboatmen that has ever been i onnected with Mississippi River commerce is dipt. Win. Campbell, Commander and part owner of the famous steamer R. E. Lee.

capt. Campbell is yet in tne prime ol lile, being but a litce past forty, and enjoys a large fortune, which he has accumulated by his own unaided efforts. He has been th Captain Cannon for nearly a quarter of a century, and the two are warmly attached to each other. Personally Captain Gamp bell is vary popular and is known to almost every man, woman and child living between New Orleans and Vickstairg. We picked up uu old newpnper of the year 1852, and ainong the many interesting things We noticed that five boats were advertised to leave this city for Pittsburg on the same day.

Their names were: Editor, Navigator, Allegheny. J. S. chenoweth and Columbian. The river news in the paper was very spicy and spoke of the levee being packed with steamers trying to puck in to puck oil und pack on cargos.

Capt. H. J. Vinton and Clerk M. Deem, of the Andy Baum, arrived lust night from Kentucky River.

The following steamers are harbored in Green River: Cons. Millar, Silver Cloud, Fashion, Maggie Smith, li. H. Cook, Idlewild, Hoi-spur, Sallie Carney mid a wbarfboat. Walter V.

Prutt, freight clerk of the Laura L. Davis, left by rail this momma for Louisville, where he will join his wife and remain until the river opens. Col, Thomas A. Blaekmore returned this morning from Pittsburg, where he spent Christmas. A gentleman from Longreacn is in the city and looking for Frank Richardson.

He is a celebrated conversationalist, but will have to reach a long distance to take held of Capt. Frank Richardson and hold on without being bilked 10 death. The barge Juno, belonging to the Ponieroy Coul Com' any, and containing about 10,000 bushels coal consigned to the Champion Towboat Company, this city, was sunk by the ice early this morning at Montgomery's Landing, just below the Suspension Bridge. The ice Is supposed to be gorged under the barge, nnd there is about five feet of water over It. The loss is estimated at $1,100.

Possibly the barge and coal may be saved. Mrs. Eugene Shiukle, who made the recent trip to New Orleans with her husband. E. L.

Shiukle, clerk of the Golden Crown, was suddenly called home to Covington to the bedside of her father, Mr, Isaac Greenwood, who is lying dangerously ill. Billy Willis, second clerk of the Robert Mitchell, went down to Warsaw, this morning to see his wife, and will remain there until navigation opens. Clerk Henry Shaw, of rhe Cons.
