that he would settle for it ); and drawing a re

BARNES, who were passing the house entered and

Adephi House, with intent to kill. was bailed by
Justice Mearis, at the direction of Deputy States
Attorney PINKNEY, in the sum of 81 900, to appear
and answer the charge before the Criminal Court"
Here then we have ERASMUS LEVY, shot by
GEORGE NJ. lMHoFF, and ALEXANDER LEVY shooting
twice with intent to kill, " at GEORGE NJ INHoFF.

FROM WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, March 25.-The Senate Committee
on Territories will report at bill for Judi
cal District in Arizona They so decided this morn
ing. Senator Gwin will move his territorial bill as
a substitute, and support it by a strong speech.
During the proceedings in the House to-day, Mr..
Stephens gave notice that he will take up the SEN
ate Kansas Bill on Thursday next. This seemed to
be acceptable to all parties, with the understanding
that nothing shall be done with the question before
that time.
The House Select Committee to investigate the
circumstances attending the sale of the Bank of
Pennsylvania building for the Philadelphia Post
Office had before them to-day witnesses that proved
that John Miller, the then Postmaster of Philade-

agreement for compensation was made previous to
the payment for the property BY the Government

LATER FROM MEyIrp

New ORLEANS, March 25.-The Steamship Ten
nessee, from Vera Cruz, has arrived with dates to
the 2lst instant Her dates from the Capital are to
the 10th.
1t is very difficult to get reliable information of
the events transporting. Several battles have been
fought in which the Zuloago party claimed to have
achieved victories but they do not amount to much.
General Parodi had retreated before Ozzolo
Pronunciamentos were still the order of the day,
but the new Government appears to be gaining
ground.
The State of Vera Cruz was under marshal law
and the Zuloago forces were on the march thither.
A battle will no doubt shortly be fought between
the contending parties on the road between Vera
Cruz and the city of Mexico.

the letter purportng to be from Washington Irving
is forgery! Mr.. Peterson, publisher of the work
has satisfied himself of this fact and subscribes to
the accuracy of the following statement by Mr. Put
nam:
l. That the letter advertised as written by Mr.
| Irving to Maitland dated November l. 1851 is n
forgery from first to last, the original being found
to be clumsy invitation of Mr.. Irving's hand
writing.
! 2. That the second letter, dated December IL, az
/ copied in part by Mr.. Maitland for his publishers
altered and interpolated by said Maitland
3. Maitland's admission that the first letter is
forgery is hereto annexed. The partial forgery of
the second is proved by the original itself-a COPY
| of which is published in advertising columns.
A. That the only interview Maitland ever had with
| Mr.. Irving, of a few minutes in October
last.
5. That the only letters ever written to Maitland
by Mr.. Irving, were (l) short answer in July,
1851 to his earnest request to permit dedication
of forthcoming book and p the letter of Deem
Der II, written in answer repeated requests for
notice of his own book.
6. That the original documents and facts all clear
! ly prove that both Messrs. Fetridge & Co., and T.
B. Peterson of Philadelphia have been the victims
of a gross fraud, of which they could have had no
suspicion.
Mr.. Maitland in his confession, says he was eyre
giously deceived by some person or persons, who
wantonly and wickedy sent him false letter. We
would chartably suppose that this is true, for he
must have known that glazing forgery would
gether, this is the most remarkable literary fraud
| which has recently come to light.
