MARSHAL Lannon's Defence. We refer our
readers to an article on the third page, in dc.
lsnca Of Marshal Lamon. A lar as We know
it Is not written by. or even with, the knowl.
edge of Col Lamon, but is the production of a
friend who believes the Marshal TO be more
siuned against than ginning" Our shafts have
not been directed against the Marshal, but
against the jail and it. internal mana cement
and the slave iaws Of the District, which made
the Jail Hlsvepen and its ksepers slave
catcbers.
The jail has been Indicted by tho grand jury
over and over again, but Congress has never
said, tear it down and build another. Crueltles
within the prison have long been practiced,
but no investigating committee has ever in.
terfered With them. 1t has always been a
loathesome slsve.pen, but Congress has never
attempted to arrest the business of elave.
catching os slave.stealing in the District, nor
tas it ever had the honesty or the courage TO
abolish slavery here although the citizens have
prayed them to do 30. There is an attempt to
do 1t now, aud God grant that II may be done
and thus perfect the humane and noble work
commenced by tbe Secretary of state.

TUX ILLUMINATION on Saturday night will
probably be quite general in all parts Of the
loyal aud rebol States. In the loyal, In honor
OF the Father Of our common country, and In
commemorstioR Of the recent glorious victories
over those who, with fire aud sword, are striving
10 destroy the institutions founded by George
Washington aud his glorious oompatriots; In
the rebel States, ths illumination will be In
honor Of tho inauguration Of their traitor Pres
ident who will that day ill up the measure of
bis infsmy, As Wicked us are biz designs, lher,,
aro those in the Federal capital who strongly
sympatbize with him and biz purposes, and
there will be no means Of distinguishing between
the loyal and the dis0yI by mere illumination,
We therefore suggest, that those who ilumi.
nate in honor Of the day, and our recent victo,
ries, unmistaksbly demonstrate the fact by
displaying In some conspicuous place, the glo
rious old Gag Of the Union They may be had
in abundance, and at a tridiDg cost,
We will make another suggestion, which lie
that, at II o'clock, at noon, the belle upon

ARREST OF COL. D'UrAssky.

We understand that, at the instance of Gen.
Blenker, Col. d'utasssy, Ia now under srrest
and In cloes confinement at the General =
headquarters.
The story OF The arrest as We have heard il,
isas follows: On Sunday last, three regiments
Of Gen. Stabl's brigade. among them, the Gar
ribaldi Guard, were sent towards Annandsle, to
do outpos, duty. Col d'Utassey, thus being
absent, his private papers and letters were
s"'zed by order Of Gen Blenksr, who insti.
tuted an examination, and discovered, what he
supposed TO be unmiatakabe evidence that tho
Colonel was ,deatihed in some way with Ger.
tain articles which recently appeared in the
New York b-"ocrut, German Newspaper,
and which We're very offensive 10 Gen. Blspker
Having made this discovery, the General
sent for the Colonel, who lett his regiment and
reported himself TO General Blsnker, who i'm.
uedistely ordered bis arrest. Doubtless there
will be some rich developments before tbir
matter is ended. There are also some grave
and important questions involved in this affair
as we now understand it, viz: has a superior
right toseizs the private papers OF subordi
nate officer, and violate the sacredness of 8
seaiY In civil life, such an act would oonsigr
tue perpetrator to penitentiary.
Again. has commanding officer right to
order the arrest Of au Inferior because az pri.
yats or personal hostility? And CAN sucb Mr.
rest be made when the officer is performing
duty in front of the enemy.
We have known, for some time past. that
there were private difficulties among certain
officers of Blenkers division, and the arrest
OF Colonel d Utassey is probably one Of ths
results Of this bad feeling.

DEATH OF WILLIE LINCOLN.
A shadow has fallen upon the White House.
Little Willie, the second son Of the President,
fsvorite Of all the visitors Of the presidential
mansion, and child Of unusual promise, died
yesterday evening at five o'clock. His sick
uess, an Intermittent fever assuming typhoid
character, has caused anxiety and alarm to his
family and friends for week past since Mon
day bis afflicted parents have scarcely dared to
hope; Wednesday be seemed sinking; and
yesterday morning it wa. evident that "the
last of earth" to the little sufferer was at hand.
For much Of the time during bis illness he has
been delirious. Drs. Stcne and Hall have been
his attending physicians, and their attentions
have been nnremitting, but unavsiling. The
President. kind and indulgent in health, has
been by his side much Of the time, scarcely
taking rest for ten days past, in his anxiety for
the sfety of the darl ing Of his affections.
Willie was boy Of unusual Intelligence, Of
great mental activity, and Of gentle manners.
His memory was remarkable, and hi, facility Of
acquisition was the frequent remark of bis
tutor. Very inquisitive was he upon subjects
far beyond bis years, and exceedingly apt In
sppropriatipg the results of bis inquiries. So
Ustemstic was be. that hs was accustomed Of
his own accord, Of morning, 10 arrange pro.

its appropriate time, and manifestng much
thoughtfulness and originality in their assign.

ly pursued and various in their range, as wai
proper for cne Of his nervous temperament, he
was especially proficient in map drawing and
very creditahle in composition, which was as
signed by bis tutor every Friday, and which
usually resulted in pleasant specimen Of auto
