in Berlin part of the time, an interested and
careful observer of the events of the wonderful
campaign which transferred the hegemony of
the German confederation from Austria to Prus-

special advantages for the study of this notable
passage in contemporary history, through the
Kindness of the American Minister, and the
attaches of the legation at Berlin At any

for obtaining information about very inter-

MIR EDIToR:--Allow one who formerly twas
resident of your city, and is at present con-
slant reader of the papers published there, to
say word or two in reference to the new
Square to be laid out between Pearl and
Franklin and Congress and Federal Streets
Judging from several articles which have ap-
peared in print, and from one in particular
published in the Argus of the 31st ult., and
signed elder Berry" should say that the
great aim was to ridicule every attempt put
forth to improve the city since the fire. Why
not discuss the question in regard to name
for the Square just as you would any other
and let people both at home and abroad see
that self respect is not utterly extinct? If the
course already commenced shall be persisted
in, new instance will be afforded in verifca-
ton of the old proverb, that those who do not
respect themselves can presume upon no re-
spect from others.
But to the name. Phenix was appropriate
and significant, and as the land is in the Oldest
part of the city can hardly be improved. Phe-
nix Square how euphoneous and fitting! If
it be named from some individual, mistakes
will arise as to the design and origin; and you
may expect some miserable Turnkey will busy
himself with it to the disgust of every decent
citizen. There was enough of this in the at.
tempt to change the name of Congress and
Middle streets. If old fogies must rule, call
Congress, Back street; India, King street; and
Exchange, Fish street; and then do as old Mr..
Randall did, who would heed no alarm of fire
until the First Parish bell rung, deeming all
others false.
Perhaps you will say am interfering. 1t
may be proper to add however, that passed
the best portion of my life in Portland and
have felt deep interest in its welfare ever
since my removal ara u TO d.

ORGAN CoNCERT--Some of the lovers of
good music were highly gratified yesterday at
terday afternoon in listening to an impromptu
concert on the sweet toned organ Of the First
Parish. DIR. Walter, organist of Trinity Chap
ell, New York, and Prof Kotzschmar, organist
of the First Parish, were the performers. The
music was splendid. DR.. Walters proved him
self to be an eminent and. skilful player. But,
to our taste, there was more expression in
Kotzschmar's playing, and, we think, most of
those present agree in our opinion 1t might
be, because Kotzschmar was much better ac-
quainted with the instrument than was DR..

The CHECK CAsE--The examination IN the
case of Edward Walsh, Jr, who is charged
with the larceny of the check for $3.50, that
Messrs. Bailey & Noyes gave Mr.. Theodore
johnson, and which the latter lost as stated in
the Press of Monday, came off yesterday in
the Municipal Court. The prosecution was
conducted by A A. Strout, ESQ.,, of the firm of
Messrs Shepley & Strout, and w. W. Thomas,
DR., Esq, appeared for the respondent.
MI. johnson testified as to receiving the
check on the 31st of January and put it in his
wallet; saw it at o'clock that evening; missed
1t at half past z O'Clock when he got home;
never sold or disposed of the check.
MI. Walsh was placed on the stand and I'M
derwent long examination. He said he had
closed hs store on Thursday night, but after
ward went back to put on his patent leather
poots when stranger came in and, after look
ing at some boots, purchased two pair for
which he engaged to pay $40. This stranger
handed him the check for $3.50 and he asked him
if it was good. He said he guessed it was
Walsh then asked him where he got it, But
the stranger did not tell him, but said if the
check was not good he did not want him to
take it. Walsh then told him he would take
it and gave him the balance over the price OF
the boots, but made mistake and gave him
$545; being five dollars too much. ua t'
The cross examination by Mr.. Strout was
very'searching and elected the various places
in which Mr.. Walsh was after he closed his
store the first time, and that it was about hall
past nine when he returned to the store and
sold the boots He did not go to Bailey &
Noyes to see if the check was good before tax
| ing it to the Bank.
Evidence was then introduced on the part Of
the State to show that Walsh's store was moi
reopened that night after it was closed at Z l.;
o'clock. The testimony came from three OF
four policemen who are stationed ON the beat
in which is the store of Walsh. r.. ...
At o'clock the evidence was all out and, a,

Court adjourned to 8 o'clock, "Wednesday
morning, when the arguments will take place

ties, in the sum Of 81 900 for bis appearance.
