WASHINGTON, JUNE "a, 1854.
To-day visited the Capitol, and took seat in the
rotundo fronting the painting of the Sgners of the
Declaration Of Independence The emotions OF Anne

gazed that group of venerable and time honored
with reverence and admiration bordering on DEVOTION
and orcby struck with their truly patriarcha
Some of their heads covered with locks Of
silver white, others were without the adornments Of
ture but in the countenance Of each there beamed the
holy efulgence of almost exclusive patriotism g. The
will to do and soul to dare depicted in every feature
And such mentally exclaimed is sold fogyism - such
the heroes that Ioung America" would draw the paint
ers brush the features Of and shout hurra for
progress left the place with feelings Of melancholy
and started for the tomb Of Washington.

MURDER WILL OFT

Our readers will recollect the burning Of Jenningss
clothing store, in Broadway few weeks ago. at which
about dozen persons mostly fremen, lost their lives.
1t was supposed to be the work of ncendaries and some
insurance companies offered FIVE thousand dollars reward
for their detection The whole affair is likely to be
unrayeled Shortly after that fire young man named
Lyman Barr was arrested charged with having perperat
ed burglary upon the tailoring establishment Of Wyman
Co., and also upon the store Of HUMPHREYS, both in
Broadway. Upon being arrested he at acknowledge
ed his guilt and stated that he had obtained access in
both by going up stairs in stores adjoining and
tering through the roof He convicted and is
in Sing Sing The facts in these cases attracted the at
tenton Of Mr. Charles s. Spencer member Of the Bar
of this city who, upon the appearance Of the offer OF
$4,000 reward in the public prints for the detection Of
the authors Of the FIRE at Jennng Co.'s store, commu-
ncated with Justice Osborne and Others and then pro-
ceeded in company with Mr. Crosby, Of the City Prison,
and Officer bowling to the state Prison at Sing Sing
Messrs Spencer and Crosby, when the former abruptly
said to him. who with you when you robbed Jen-
nngs?" "Tll hang before I'll tell" was the answer
Then you engaged in that matter; now tell the
whole story and if you wish to conceal any names do
Then don't care DAMN said he. When was ten
years Of age commenced alone and I'd as leave be in
prison OUT The prisoner then made statement, Of
which the following is the substance:
aOn the evening Of April 25th he three thieves at the
Jenny Lind saloon Centre street He then alone
the adjoining JenniDg assembled the sarsnto the loft
past six o'clock In quarter of hosr the others
After waiting short time they all went upon the roof
and entered the store OF Jennings Co. through the scue
They hid themselves by of drum
ed with furnace whom after staying until they thought all
sa they proceeded to the third story and took about
three hundred dollars worth Of property With covered
camphene lamp they then set FIRE the third story then
up the fourth story set fire to that with matches and
escaped into the street In the why they They then
separated and the prisoner went to the Bowery where he
heard the alarm OF fire."
The property stolen found in Poughkeepsie Other
facts said to have been ascertaned other disclosures
to have been made by the parties and other proceedings
taken, which viii be made public the ends Of
justice win warrant The probability is that the guilty
parties will oil be brought to justice and this hitherto
mysterious affair explained The rewards offered by the
insurance companies and city authorities amounting to
S6000 win doubtless be cheerfuy paid upon the con-
viction of the guilty partesNep York Weekly Journal
