LOCAL MATTERS.

IScxyprAKrsx John Orrell and Robert Heath
were arraigned before the Mayor, Saturday, on the
charge of setting FIRE to the ice house attached to
the Poor House and VIM Hulcher's stable, on Mon.
day morning last Several boys were examined
who were in the neighborhood OF the stable when
it was set on re Alexis Strausberger and Lawren &c
Pemberton testified to seeing John Orreli, Robert
Heath and Samuel Kershaw ran from the direction
of the stable when the fire frat broke out. They
did net make any alarm, however.
Henry Potter stated that he met John OrreH In
the street, Thursday morning, and that Ore said
he meant to swear that Bob Heath set fire to both
places for if he did not do it he (Orrel) would be
taken up.
VIM Hulcher stated that the stock and contents
were worth about $50 and that Kershaw, a most
important witness for the Commonwealth, was alb
sent. Kershaw, it will be recoected, was seen by
Sususberger and Peuberton running from the fire
in company with Orrell and Heath.
w. H. Stephens deposed that Heath was the only
boy about the ice houce when the fire burst out
there He saw Eeath at the ce-house about quar-
ter of an hour before the fire broke out.
Robert Heath, en- being examined, gave in his
testimony very uuwiingly and betrayed much un-
easiness. He said he was not with Orrell and ker
shaw when the FIRE broke out, and that kashaw
told him that Orrei set FIRE to the stable Orreii,
Oh being Intercepted, charged Heath with setting
fire to both places and said he had told Heath not
TO do SO. These two boys are lads OF VIGOROUSLY
bad character and have been before his Honor seVe
