The Last Hours of Arthur Spring--The Blu
rial of his Body,

rial of his Body.
4 gentleman who had several interviews with
Arthur Spring during the last few weeks of his
life expresses the opinion that he refused to make
confession, from an apprehension of the indig-
nant opinion of mankind, and the hope that in
some minds, belief would still be cherished of
his Innocence. His sou, however, said few days
before his execution, that a confession was with
held under faint hope of reprieve or pardon; ant
that his father had asked him if he could not Sc
cure the interference of the President of the Uni
ted States in his behalf. He manifested surprise
and regret, when told that the matter was not
within the jurisdiction of the President. few
minutes before he was led to the scarold, he asked
permission 10 change his clothes, and substi.
tute those he had at the time of his arrest, for
those which had been provided for him in Prison
Permission was granted, and the change was
made accordingly. He also laced up his boots,
and then said he was ready to be pinioned. The
Individual, to whom the task assigned, made Lis
appearance, when. the prisoner requested that the
duty might be performed by Mr.. Street, who in or
der TO crafty him assisted in the operation. The
cap was then placed upon his head, but to this he
objected. On being informed that it would be bet
ter, he aSSented, and Immediately after moved for
ward in charge of the officers. His step was firm,
and his manner remarkably calm, when his dread
full situation was considered. He was thirty eight
yeats of age, and has left son and three daugh-
tiers, all of whom at Washington. His spirit
ual advisers do not entertain doubt of his guilt
His bod was given to MIR. Street on Saturday, no.
in conformity with the request of his son, had it
buried us privately as poSsibl,.

DARING RoBBERY.-During night before last,
the residence of john Sylvester, grocer, on the
corner Of ohm and Clinton streets, was robbed by
some expert burglar The thief entered the bull
ding through the cellar, and assembled to the first
for; here he forced door and assembled to the
bed room of the family in the second story. In
this room Mr.. and Mrs. Sylvester and their three
children were sleeping. Under the bed Mrs S. had
placed small tin box which contained tie valua-
bles ofthe family, consisting of 5000 in gold, 100
five franc pieces, some 5000 in bank notes, ladys
gold watch and chain, two sets of silver spoons,
several finger rings, breast pins, receipts and other
papers. In Mr.. Sylyesters pantaloons pocket,
which hung on post of the bed, was wallet
containing about $40. After extnguiShlng the
night taper, the robber took the box and wallet,
and descending below, passed through the kitchen
and escaped.
On search being instituted the next morning,
the gou watch aid chain was found in The kitch-
en- near the door, where it had apparently been
carefally laid. In the yard close by the alley
gate, the tin box was found. 1t had been pried
open and IL e money extracted. The remainder of
the contents were unmolested.-Louispiile Jour.

"PRooREssIvE FRrENDs."-This new sect, re-
Gently organized in Chester county, Pa. have pub
lished exposition adopted at their yearly meeting
from which it appears they are composed mostly Of
those mem bers of one branch of the Society of
Friends who have BEN earnestly engaged in the
reformatory movements of the day against slavery,
intemperance, &C., and who conceive that they
were harshly dealt with on that account They
hold that churches merely human organiza-
tons, possessing only such powers as are confer
redupon them by their individual members. They
deem it great mistake in christian churches 10
demand of their members a uniformity of belief
and they denounce the pharasaical spirit which
frowns upon amusement, and which would cover
society with sanctimonious gloom. Their meet
ings are conducted very much like those of the
Society of Friends, except that they are not ruled
by elders, and have no ministers, overseers &c.
As yearly meeting, this body discains all DIS
ciplinary authority over individuals or local soci
cites. Individuals may at any time withdraw
from The Society without being required 10 give
reasons therefor or being censured for SO doing.
