WASHINGTnN March G lS1i

Tie cars which arrived here at II O'Clock TO
day brought vast number of citizens from
Baltimore and the northern cities, amongst
whom were noticed about twenty members of
the Empire Club, wearing red jackets. The
tram consisted OF not less than fifteen cars that
were all well filled with passengers. The high
wlad OF to-day blows the sharp dust about
pennsylvania Avenue, so as tosmake the walk
ing and promenadng thereon very annoying
to the immense crowd ofpersons who are NOV
ing to and fro, in parties and groups, between
the Capitol and the Presidents House. Great
preparations are making for the splendid Inaup-
uratlon Balls, which will be given tomorrow
night at the National Theatre and Carusi's Sa-
loon. Mr. Lafore who has an excellent Saloon
on the first floor Of the Washington Assembly
Rooms will also give ball tomorrow night,
and be prepared to serve up dinner at 3 o'ck
Tor any number ofvsitors. The arrangements
made by MIR. LAHORE for his ball are very neat.
The Saloon is handsomely testooned and deco
rated with evergreens, &c.
Mr. jenkins of the metropolis, between a.
and Sd streets, on Pennsylvania Avenue, will
be prepared to serve up good dinner to-mor-
row for one thousand persons. There will be
ample provisions at all our refectories and tav-
erns for the relreshment of every visitor. Mr..
Benter at the Third Ward Eating House can
serve up good dinners to all who call upon him
so can all the rest.
There has been long and final examination
to day before Justice Thompson, in the case of
the United States vs. Thomas Tanner, ir., and
John ID. Frizzell alias John w. Frizzell. The
former is charged with burglary and robbery
IN the first ward of this city, by breaking in the
shoe store of Mr.. Benjamin Thompson and
stealing So pair of womens shoes and several
other pairs of boots and shoes, the property of
said Thompson. The latter is charged with
receiving into his possession part of the said
stolen property, knowing 1t to be SUCH After
the examination of a great number of witnesses
in the Guard Room at the county Jail, the JUS
tice decided that it was his duty to commit the
two prisoners Tanner and Frizzel for trial at
the next term of the Court, and they were so
committed.
Tanner was arrested week ago near Rock
vile, Montgomery county, Md, on the infor-
nation Of MIR. Forrest, to whom much credit is
due for his conduct in causing the arrest
Tanner made desperate resistance, but was
finally taken by Sheriff Gambia and his assist
ants. The prisoner was afterwards lodged in
ockvlle Jail, and removed thence on Thurs
day last by officer Burr, under the authority of
an order from the Hon. Judge Heath.

PROPER PUNISHMENT. One evening last
week young lady of Portland, returning
homo, was accosted by young man, who in
sisted on accompanying her. Finding resist
ance useless, she took his arm and walked to
her residence at the extreme end of the city,
pensive one, and would not let him have it
again. She told him that if he wanted it he
might receive it the next day by calling at a
certain shop in Exchange strect-but he has
not yet been after it. The best of the story is,
that his name is in it, and he is of course known.

For the American Republican,
THE WITCHED FIDDLE

BYJ. II. HEWITT.
The EiEking came out from his mountain cave,
Whilst the moon and the stars shining;
the b rds OF the night were tuning save,
Aud the south wind whispering love to the wave
While the fog and the tfee-teld were whining
"Thars unwritten music!" the Eli.k n said,
"Ihey may talk of the wonders OF ART;
IKE TO hear solos by cane reeds playd,
me song Of the leaves when they dance in the shade
While the winds and the waves play their part
A little trim fairy heard all that he said
And she laugh'd outright at his notion;
In full blown primrose she had made her bed
And then she kept shaking her tiny head,
I'LL the flo yer and the stem caught the notion
The fixing LOOKED black at the merry sprite.
But she sung like bird-and lie smiled;
''You laugh at my taste? I'll prove I'm right
The notes that you sing no master can write
They're SO mellow-sO touching-so Wild"
He cut from the dog tcood knotty bough,
And he hew'd il and hoow'd it out;
The mountain dogs howl'd and kicked up row,
And so did the woodruff cannot tell how
For what was the Elf-king about?
Then he kilPd ,rild-cat-its entraiis he drew
Der the breast of the fiddle thus made;
The cat how'd whenever he turn'd a screw,
And its groans resounded the wild woods through,
While the fairy shrunk back sore afraid
Of for- Wood he fashioned bow, whereon
The name Of zebra he fXd;
When it moved per the strings the cat gan to groan
The zebra TO bray and the dog 10
In chorus SO strange and mix'd.
"Ho. this is my fidde,' the Elf-king cried
''Come, fairy and dwell within;
You'll MARBLE your melloWest notes insde.'
The lake waves moan'd, and The south wind sigh'd,
o'Cr her doom for so light sin!
The world stood amazed when the Elf king play'd-
His music was deemd quite riddle;
Till sick of the ecrape, the grim fiddler said
"There's not a Cremona half SO well made
So Ole Bull, here is your iddle.''

THE MINISTRY AT LARCE.

THE MINISTRY AT LARGE.
The Second Annual Report of this noble
Work has been politely handed to us, by our
friend and BROTHER Rev G. Ii. A. Dali; who,
having passed nine years in the public schools
of Boston, and seven at Harvard University,
after having been ordained as an Evangelist, to
preach the gospel to the poor-pledged to no
name but that of Christ, to no creed but the
Word of God after successful opening Of the
Ministry at Large at st. Louis, Mo-, and sub
sequent travel in the United States and in Eu-
rope, visiting and examining prisons and bene-
VIOLENT institutions; comes to labor in his native
city and asks Shall | be encouraged to re-
main?
Did ever any thing look more like Christiani-
ty than this same Ministry at Large? "WoRK
out your Own SALVATION with fear and trem-
bling, forit is Cop that WoRKETH in you to WILL
and to Do, Of his own good pleasure" Behold
the Plan Of Christianity. 1t is not mere aims
giving: it proposes WORK, LABoUR, DoINC;
and as we are unfit, naturally, for this, lo of
his own good pleasure, God worketh in us to
WILL, and to Do; and SO directs US to his Vine
yard, that we many earn our wages, everlast-
ing life What Poor-Scheme! Why do the
wise ones of this world overlook it? Why do
the benevolent overlook it; and content them
selves with aiding in the accumulative ruin of
the poor, by mere alms-givng2
But this wonderful scheme is NOT overlook
ed by our excellent friend, Rev. Mr.. Dali. 1t
is the very system of eyertion which he has Sc
lected: and we wish him with our heart God
speed Why cannot the City Corporation aid
him in his undertaking. Is it cheaper to
punish crime, than to prepent it? Is it more
agreeable? More hnmane' What multitude
OF young candidates for our Jail, our Penlten-
tiary, our Gibbet, might be turned aside from
their fatal course, by this Chrst-minded man,
and persuaded into the paths of virtue, piety,
industry and respectability 1t would be real
economy to support such a Missionary to the
poor and the degraded, as is this worthy Minis
ter at Large. How many thousands of dollars
would it save to the Corporation! How many
pangs would it ward off from human hearts,
But II the Corporation cannot think an ounce
OF prevention to be worth as much as a pound
OF cure; where are the generous and true heart
ed Christians of Baltimore, who take pleasure
in following in their Masters steps? Let them
seek out this devoted Missionary let them read
his trief, but elegant and heart warming Re-
port: let them look in upon his rare and earn
est work: and then, when his heart-full voice
floats to their Christ-full hearts, inquring,
Shall be encouraged to remain? let them.
with shout that shall make the lanes, alleys,
novels, and misery-smitten heart shake and
thrill with joy, answer, Yes, yes, brother yes!

son Just gave ten dollars!'' "Well he may,''
said the old man; 'thc dog has rich father''

TEMPERANCE. Edward G. Delavan publish
es the following "Declaration," the signatures
to which he has himself procured.
Being satisfied from observation and expert
ence, as well as from medical testimony, that
ardent spirits as drink is not only needless,
but hurtful, and that the entire disuse of it
would tend to promote the health, the virtue
and happiness of the community, we hereby
express our conviction that should the citizens
of the United States, and especially the young
men, discontinue entirely the use of it, they
would not only promote their own personal
benefit, but the good of their country and the
world. JAMES MADISON,

MURDER. The Cherokee Advocate, of Fe-
bruary 18th, says that on the 2sth ult, a band
of assassins entered the house of Mr.. Charles
Thornton, near the Arkansas river, in the Hi
nols district, and murdered MIR. T. in his bed.
The morderers shot him four times, inflicted
seventeen stabs upon his person, and cut his

the crime upon Tom Starr and Ellis Starr and
accounts for its preparation on the ground
