DESTRUCTION OF THE PoPE,s OFFERING
TO THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT.


About IL o'clock last night the seniine,
near the Monument became conscious of the
rubbing Of something against the side of his
watch box, he at first thought !, was his
faithful dog but on attempting 10 open the
door, he found il secured by a rope, which
had been drawn tightly around the box
Immediately after, he perceived that some
persons were pasling paper over the win.
dows. He called 10 them, and asked what
was meant, and was told 10 hush. He asked
If they intended TO injure him and received
the same reply as he did TO all other ques.
tions.
He then heated an iron poker in his stove,
and pressing it through the door, burned the
rope in two, and made his way out, He
soon found that his dog had been poisoned,
and was dead and on examining the ground
carefully, he discovered that the beautiful
pieces Of marble that had been presented to
the Monument Association by the Pope, had
been broken into thousand fragments.
We have no information of whom suspi-
cion rests upon in connection with this deed.
We are informed that very large number
Of persons visited the Monument yesterday,
and not one-,hird of them registered :heir
names. We have no doubt large reward
will be offered for the apprehension and con-
viction of the high handed depreda,ors.-
