Henry Doscher, who resides near Monk's Corner, on the North eastern Railroad, a short time ago took a baie of sea island cotton to Mr. Davis, thc railroad agent ai that station, for shipment, and obtained a receipt for the same. A few days after? wards he went to Mrs. Davis, during the absence of Mr. Davis, and demanded the cotton. Know? ing that lt was his, Mrs. Davis gave up the cotton, but neglected to take back the railroad receipt. Doscher sold the cotton Immediately to a gentle? man who paid bim for lt In full, and then having the receipt of the railroad agent still in his pos? session, he obtained an advance from a merchant of this elly by transferring the receipt to him. Mr. Davis upen being sued on the receipt for the. bale of cotton therein mentioned, had Doscher arrested on Wednesday afternoon. The case came up before Trial Justice John G. Mackey, who, after an examination, decided that Dosoher should give ball for his appearance at the next Court of Gen e ral Sessions. Doscher and a constable were sent out to give the former an opportunity of getting the necessary security, but after an hour's fruitless search returned to the trial justice unsuccessful. It was now dark and growing late, and the trial Justice began to prepare the commitment. While this was going on Doscher quietly made his exit from the crowded office, and when the constable looked for his prisoner to take him to Jail he was nowhere to be found. A strict search was Insti? tuted, but Doscher has not been seen since A constable was sent on yesterday afternoon to Monk's Corner, and by this tune Doscher may be once more lu limbo.

METEOROLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS_Pursuant ! to a joint resolution passed by both Houses of j Congress In February last, authorizing the Secre? tary of War to provide for taking meteorological j observations at military stations and other points j tn the States and Territories, and for giving notice 1 on the Northern lakes and seacoast, by magnetic telegraph and marine signals, of the approach ; and force or Btorms, Mr. J. E. Evans, observer ser- i g?ant In the signal service or the United States, j has been sent to this city, and has now fitted up I ! his offices and instruments in the upper story or the old State Bank building, at the corner or East Bay and Broad street. Mr. Evans has been In this branch of the service for a number or years, and ls thoroughly acquainted with his duties. He is supplied with all the instruments necessary for J his observations. On the tin roof or thc building, whence a fine view or the harbor and *Jie city ls to be had, a enbstantlal stage haa been erected for Instruments. On this stage are, a Robinson's anemometer, a Lord's anemometer, a rain gauge jjwd a wind vane. The two former are very simple and ingenious Instruments, and are used for measuring the velocity and pounds pressure of the wind. They work on dur?rent plans, and the calculation by one corrects that of the other. The rain gauge shows thc exact depth j of the rain that may have fallen, and the wind-1 V8oe the direction of the wind. At one or the I windows In the office there ls a small recess, en- j clo,- ed by lattice work. In this recess, which ls exposed on the sides to the action of the atmos? phere, are a thermometer and a barometer of Grnn'a standard, and a Mason's hygrometer which gives the relative humidity of the atmos? ph?re. These instruments are of the most deli cate workmanship, and the barometer in partlcu lar ls a curiosity of accurate finish. By means of these Instruments, exact observations of the helghth of the barometer and thermometer, and their changes, the relative humidity of the at? mosphere, the direction, velocity and pressure o' the wind, and its force, (reduced to the Beaufort scale) the amount of clond, the depth of the rain fallen since the previous report, and the general state of the weather, wfll be taken three times a day. The weather reports are made up in the morn-1 lng, tn the evening and at night. The morning, evening and night reports, arter this week, will be posted regularly on the bulletin-board in the Chamber or Commerce read? ing-room for the information of merchants and shipmasters. J CKCMB3,-The crowd ia front of the TTnlted States Courthouse is caused by the presence of the offenders against the election laws, to be tried at this court, and the witnesses In those cases. Mr. VT. G. Mazy ck has removed his printing o mee to No. ll Broad street. Tlie big boiler is resting quietly in Wentworth street, between St. Philip and King. WORKING A ' COAL MLNE.-For some time past the coal on Boyce's wharf has been disap? pearing In an unaccountable manner, and a sharp watch yesterday morning discovered the un? known ageney. Special Officer Johnson, of the Detective force, who was on the watch, discovered four boys proceeding lu a stealthy manner to wards the coal, each armed with a large bag. They were rapidly filling these with the coal when the officer surprised and carried them to the Defective's office. Upon being brought before a trial justice, they were Identified as John Robinson, Zachariah Nels?n, Edward Brown and Stephen Kennedy, ?bt one of whom ls over eleven years of age. They were about to be committed when the quartette set up a huge blubbering, and made the most ample promises for the future. This would not have proved of much avail had not the respective fathers of the parties appeared on the scene, and upon gopd security being given by them for the future good behavior of their off? spring, the latter were sent on their way rejoicing. ii JJ a i if s s a NOTICES.
