We hove anchor at six in the morning and got under way. Our boat was in the advance.
We had proceeded about eighteen miles unmolested, when in rounding a point we descried a skiff containing a white man and a negro.

According to an arrangement announced last week, Judge Halyburton will commence calling his docket to-day.--The gaming cases are still pending in the Circuit Court, and it is expected that Judge Meredith will to-day render his decision on the petition of Wm. Burnes for a writ of prohibition to prevent the Mayor from confiscating and destroying a lot of gambling implements now in his possession. --A dry docket was disposed of at the Mayor's Court on Saturday, and as a large number of drunken men have been arrested since, it is likely to be still drier to-day.
The most entertaining case was that of an impetuous son of the Emerald Isle, who appeared to answer a charge of beating his wife. "I'm afraid of me life, your honor," remarked the matron; "he bates me day and night — me, the mother of five children — and kapes a big dirk
