Michael Sullivan, proprietor of Noah's Ark and other chattels, was put on trial for buying a lot of old iron, supposed to have been stolen from Joseph R. Anderson and others.--The impossibility of identifying the iron led to the conclusion that the accused did not commit the crime, and he was let off. Eleven cases of issuing small notes against Thos. J. Starke; fourteen cases against John F. Regnault, and eleven cases against J. P. Swords, were dismissed on payment of costs by the defendants.
