CITY INTELLIGENCE.

CHARGED WITH ARsoN-Some days ago
a fire occurred at public-house at the S. W.
corner of Eighth and Christian streets, under
circumstances that led to belief that the build
ing was set fire to with a deliberate intention to
deraud the insurance company. The place
was kept by John Faro and Augustus Lastrico.
Yesterday an examination OF the case was held
at the Central Station, during which the follow
ing facts were elicited:-The fire broke out in
the bar-room about midnight and was dis
covered by one OF the police officers, who gave
the alarm, and the flames were eXhnguished by
the Moyamensing Hose Company. When the
fire was first seen an effort was made to enter
the house. but all the doors leading to the bar
room were found to be locked, and one of them
had to be broken open. There were several
families living IN the upper part of the house,
whose retreat by the stairway would have been
cut off had it not been for the prompt eXtinguish-
ment of the fire. An examination of the bar
room led to the belief that the fire was the work
OF design, and suspicion fell upon the defendants
in consequence of the heavy amount of insur-
ance and the large claim made upon the Phoenix
and Metropolitan Insurance Comprehension
in both. Defendants made out q list of the
articles alleged to have been destroyed, which
included large quantity of liquors, Champagne
wine, and a number of cigars, Surveyors and
appraisers, who had made an examination of
the stock damaged, testified that 1t did not eX-
ceed in value from tour to five hundred dollars.
The counsel for Lastrico, d. P. Brown, Jr.,
represented. and said he was prepared to prove
that his client was not in the city at the time of
the fire, and the Fire-Marshal, who had the
matter in charge, said he had been informed
that Lastrico was IN Boston, and had been for
several days, when the fire took place. Faro
was held to answer the charge OF arson, and
Lastrco to answer the charge of conspiring to
defraud the Phoenix and Metropolitan Insurance
COMPANIES,

I'M MEMORY OF JOAN MASON II

The winds and rams have stormed gou..
They wrestled with the struggling trees,
And now weird, wild moan
Watts softly on the breeze.
thousand rain-drops from the leaves
Are trickling to the turf below,
While strange sunlight weaves
Where the pale asters glow.
Wrenched by the fiery, iron arm
OF frowning tempest the young oak
Has felt the fatal harm,
Has fallen with the stroke.
Sad is the green and splntered stem,
And sad the crushed and clustering sprays
In all the grove, gem,
Now corse.l like, it decays.
view the change of outward form
The guiding, master hand beneath
! shudder at the storm
weep its work of death.
Why weep, when every shelving hill,
And every moorland stretching far,
Hath oak and hemiock still,
Hath sun and hower.star?
Why weep? A part of me is dead;
For though the world is thronged with men,
This oak whose lie is fed
Recalls his death again.
For had learned to prize his worth,
His feeling heart and sturdy mlnd
His mild and genial mirth,
His purposes refined.
But they are gone! l feel the wound
Not long knew, but loved him well,
For love is ever found
Where truth and meekness dwell
A sunlight falls within the void
On virtues not so bright before
/ mourn the oak destroyed,
The bloom prize the more.
The yellow soil is loose and bare
That heaped upon his manly breast,
In shower and summer air
Shall yet be freshly dressed,
With raiment of the grassy spire,
Inwoven with the latest flowers,
All early to expire
In autumns frosty hours.
A symbol of his few green years,
That, IN their growing beauty, met
The eath-blight-leaving tears
And many vain regret.
