THE STATE ARMs.--The residium OF
cannon and small arms belonging to the
State latter the Confederacy appropri-
ated and used whatever could be of use)
was stored in tobacco factory, corner
of Cary and Seventh streets, which at
forwards was known as the Virginia ~
senal. Since the evacuation of the city,
the contents of the factory have been
seized by agents of the United States as
"trophies Of war;" and removed. We
understand that the attention of Govern
or Pierpoint was called to the matter
while the removal was in progress, and
we presume he took the necessary steps
to cause President Johnson to be in
formed as to the ownership of the arms,
with view have them restored to their
proper place at an early day. Amongst
the contents of the factory on Seventh
street were one or two of the old French
cannon made present to the State by
Gilbert Mottier, Marquis de Lafayette.
These cannon were highly embellished
with engraving and gotten up in the
best style of ancient art. There were
six. but the "so-called" Confederacy,
with total disregard of old associations,
converted four into Napoleon guns. ~
The old bell used in the Episcopal
Church at Yorktown, sent from Eng
land two hundred and fifty years ago,
was also deposited in the factory, being
highly valued as relic. When Crom-
we'll was deposed (the Virginians being
in those days very loyalD the old bell
was cracked ringing joyful peal
The old Virginia fiint-lock rifles,
isome of them used at the battle Of
New Orleans also in the factory, were
regarded as curiosities in their way,
which was very different from these
DAYS of percussion-locks and hair-trig-
gers. At the beginning of the war Wiz.
Sinia had over two hundred cannon, all
of which were appropriately the Con.
federacy. Doubtless these arms could
also be recovered, belonging, as they
did and do, to the State, whose disloyal
agents could not ALLEVIATE them by any
pretended legislation. All these arms,
and much other valuable plHnder, seized
by United States officers as trophies OF
war, must berestored, if President john
sons theory be correct, that no man, or
set of men by whatever name they may
call themselves, can take a State out 81
the Union. If they could not take heI
out. they certainly had no rightfui au.
thority to pass her property to parties
inimical to the Union.-Rschnao'aa ne

A WOMAN COMPOSING THE MURDER
OF HER CHILD.--Ann Barry, arrested
on charge of drowning her child, six
weeks old, in canal at Rochester, N.
", has confessed thatshe threw the in
FAINT into the water on Monday morning
the 10th inst, after she was discharged
from the penitentiary. She declared she
was prompted to destroy tho child be-
cause she was friendlcss, and without
means to support herself and offspring.
With purpose to relieve herself as she
thought, from the full weight of the
crime by making liquor share the curse,
she stopped at q grocery and procured q
glass. Thus stimulated, she went to the
river to drown her child there, but hel
courage did not support her, and she
| crossed Clarissa street bridge and went
to the Gennessee Valley Canal, walked
up the bank to q somewhat retired place
near Peart's slaughter houses, and there
proceeded to carry out her purpose
She seated herself upon the ground ant
nursed the infant to quiet it, stripped of
its clothing, tied stone to its neck ant
threw it into the water. AS it struggled
going down, drawn by the weight at
tached, she felt sorry, and would have
rescued it If she could have done so a
that moment. Alarmed by the appear
ance of some men at distance, she wa
deferred from making an effort, and tn
child was then out of sight and at tn
bottom of the muddy water. Wander
ing up and down the bank few min
utes, She turned and left the scene OF he
crime.
She was away when the body was ia
ken from the water an hour or so later
and had taken refuge at house in th
west part of the city, where she was ac
quainted. She carried the child's cloth
ing thither-the same that had beel
given her at the penitentiary by Mrs
Fulton, wife of the Superintendent. Sh
made herself an apron of long gowl
worn by the child, and retained othe
articles which the police have recovered
The magistrate could do nothing full
Their than commit the accused to answe
for murder.
