PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 1.
Fire Rioter Conuicted-The Manning Case
Horses Burnt, &c.
The jury in the case OF James Stevenson, tried
on Wednesday last, for participation in re-
cent conflict between the Paramount and Good
Will fire companies, this morning returned a
verdict of guilty, after having been in delibera.
ton two days. His counsel made the most of
bad cause, and but tor the circumstance that he
was arrested with his hand raised, and stone
in it, and store of the same kind of ammunition
IN his pockets, he would have been cleared. The
ingenious course pursued by his counsel greatly
perplexed the jury, as is evidenced by the long
time taken in making up their verdict.
Judge Parsons settled the Rushworth case
this morning, the defendant In which, you read.

guire, bit of portion OF his tongue IN an eating
house in tn, Arcade. Mcguire was present
this morning, and gave his evidence in relation
had not affected his capacity for talking; and
some Of those who know him best do say that II
has improved his delivery, which always was
thick and indistinct; The Judge took into con-
Rushworth to Mcguire as damages Tor The IN
Jury inflicted, but at the same time he could n OF
permit such act Of brutality to 60 unnoticed
or unpublished by the court He gave no opinion
as to whether the obligations 6 ven by Rush
worth for the payment, Of aportion Of the sum
mentioned above, could be binding, inasmuch
as one of the conditions that no criminal
suit should be instituted by the commonwealth
had failed; but in pronouncing the sentence he
would view the whole sum as aid, and in con-
sequence of that consideration beng all evidence
Of repentance for the brutality committed, he
sentenc ed Rushworth to ay fine OF $780, and
costs, to suffer an Imprisonment for six months,
aud ut the expiration OF his sentence to give
bonds in $500 for his future good behavior.
Eight houses in Thirteenth, near Poplar street,
were burned this morning about five o'clock ;
the flames having as usual been kindlcd by an
lncendiary. Six Of the buildings were unoccu-
pied, being scarcely completed, and the other
two were tenanted by their owners, Mr. Marson,
and Mr. Roberts, who had moved IN on their
completion but a short time since; Inc nre
commenced in one of the untenan,ed buildings.
