MATOB'S C??BT, January 18.-Henry Smith, a gay and festive young man of dark complexion, who had been participating in tho "mazy dance" at a splendid ball in Elliott street, and thero salu? ting Sarah Brown, a dusky maiden, by a lick on the head with a club, while she was tripping thc very fantastic heel, was fined $3 for his unrrallant conduct. An individual who had, sans c?r?monie, walked into a boarding houso, and' gono up stairs to bod with all the gravity of an old lodger, but who had boen uncovered and brought ont by the aid of the police, was discharged, as it was supposed an overdose of whiskey had made him get so high. A five dollar bill, which had boen loft to answer for another Bill who had been on a bust, was ex? amined and foimd to be so good that, it waa re? tained and put into tho service of the city. One or two other cases, which are to bo examin? ed into, concluded the business of the day. STREET BEGGARS.-We havo heard, from moro than ono source, that our citizens aro being con? siderably annoyed, at the pro ont time, by men and women knocking nt their doors and ringing their bells, generally at meal times, and when the summons is ?nswored by a servant, a soiled writ? ten paper or greasy book is sont ia from some ons begging for money. These appeals are generally accompanied by certificates, signed with imagi? nary names, giving a doleful account of tho suffer? ings and wants of the petitioner; but as this is an old dodge which, we hope, tho people know too well, wo don't think the presentation of such doc? uments bonofits them much. Wo are af raid, how? ever, that the mistresses of houses stifler most from these interruptions while engaged in domes? tic affairs, and we would hint to the police to keep an eye on tbeso vagrants, and to prevent them as much as possible from disturbing families. While wo know that want does exist in the community, and that a great many persons, as of yore, have hearts filled with charity, still the large means that a number onco possessed, they have no long? er, and tho small amounts they are now able to give are properly bestowed upon those of our own people, whose poverty they are well acquainted with. It will bc a long timo boforo the inhabitants of any southern city will be able to supply visiting beggars either with capital or travelling expenses, and thcrofore wc would advise all such to compli? ment some other portion of the country, with their presence. THE PHCENIX FEBE EHOTHK COMPAFT celebrated their anniversary yesterday. In the afternoon they paraded about fifty strong, their engine gaily and tastefully adorned. The "playing" was high? ly satisfactory, giving a stream of 211 feet, with only 90 lbs. of steam on. In the evening the Company met, and the ballot for officers resulted as follows : W. E. HOLMES.

RACHEL, of the popular No. 119 Moating street Restaurant, and all hands seemed to enjoy them? selves in true, free and easy fireman's style, the Italian Harpers at intervals enlivening the occasion with their dulcet s'rains. Toasts wore offered, and speeches made, anda great degree of enthusiasm, and the very best of feeling pervaded the assem? bly. We secured the toasts, and had ample notes of tho speeches of R. S. DURYEA, Esq., Chief M. H. NATHAN, his Honor the MAYO?, F. J. PORCHES, Esq., BOSWELL T. L IAN, Esq., of the Mercury, axd others,; but tho lateness of the hour, i nd the crowded state of our columns, preclude their pub? lication.

Foll particulars furnished by C W. DENNIS, at the Planters' Hotel. A NEW LIQHT.-We last night teated the virtues of the new burning finid, the "Boone Oil," at THE NEWS Office, and can testify to the entire accuracy of the representation? toade in regard to it in the ^ advertisement, in to-day*? paper, of Messrs. MC? KAY & CAMPBELL, the agent? for this city. The light is bright and clear; neither smoko nor smell; and tho consumption very small. BETTER LATE THAN NEVER_Our old friend, Captain Corm zn, having jr. jt remembered that he did not send nu a Christmas present, marje full atonement yesterday. II? sent us some Ever Eier. It wasn't exactly l*#sr, nor any other hit d we ever before drank, lt wa* hm, sweet, and had eggs and cinnamon in it-and many other ingredients, "too numerous to mention." We aro glad that the Captain thought of us, and more particularly that he did so in such' ? handsome manner. - May his shadow never grow larger! P. S.-Wo neglected to mention that tho Captain still entertains his friends and customers at the old stand in Market street. . . .. THE TABLEAUX of the Prophecies of ST. JOHN and the Miltonian Tableaux open at Hibernian Hall on Monday evening next. Regarding' these celebrated Tableaux the New Orleans Time* says : "This extraordinary exhibition continues to attract admiring thousands to Masonic Hall, who never grow fatigued gazing on the grand and' thrilling scenes presented in all the glow of a glorious art. The poet and artist haye vied with each other in their utmost reach after the .sulilimo, the marvel Iocs, and the terrible. The interest in these mag? nificent Tableaux continues to increase- daily, and we cannot understand how it could be otherwise, when the subject is one that awakens every feel? ing cf a high and holy nature that belongs to ka? manity."

He had nover said anything about killing a man, and those who said that be had lied. Cross-Examined.-Catharine Collins lived at the same bouse with him, and tho statement sho made about his absence the entire day was false, because he broughtJtbo dinner home. Lieutenant CAMPBELL and E. M. Wnrnsa, Esq., both contradicted this statement of Greeley's; ?nd the evidence being closed on both sides, the Court adjourned until to-day at 10 A. M., when the argu? ment will be made, and the caso left to tho Jory. ECONOMICAL SIGHT-SEETNO_Those of our read? ers who design visiting tho Paris Exposition next spring, would do well to go to the College to-night, where they will have a foretaste of the beautiful things in store for them. And those who do not intend to go to Paris have a still greater induce? ment to visit the College Chapel, and BOO Professor HOLMES' beautiful Binopgxic Lantern views, spe? cially selected for this entertainment. Such an economical opportunity of making the grand tour is not often presented to ns. We feel assured a large nambc-r of young travellers, especially, will take passage with tho Professor.
