Messrs. Cox * Spranger, after n pIoa porous

MAIL ROBBERY-ATTeSt Of The alleged Perpe-
trdtors.-About q month since, MIR. w. 5. SImp-
son, of the Keystone farm, near Fort Washing
ton, found on the shore of his place quantity
of letters. checks, &c. and reported the fact to
Major Richards, Superintendent OF Police
who assigned the case to Detectives McDeyItt
and Thompson. These officers promptly COM
municated the fact TO the Post Office Depart
ment, and called in MIR Frederick Depro, special
agent, to assist them. On close investigation.
these officers became satisfied that a route agent
named w. J. Lee, on the Southern boat, knew
something of the matter, tor the postmarks
OF the letters showed that they arrived
here to 60 down on the boat when Lee
was on duty, and he had been spending
more money than his salary would allow
Yesterday it was arranged that Mr.. McDevitt
should go down and return on the boat. and be
accordingly last night was on the boat, where
he secreted himself in a room adjoining the
mail ROOM and became better satisfied that he
was alter the right man. Accordingly he ar
rested Lee on his arrival here. ana took HIM 10
police headquarters, where he had a hearing
before MAJOR Richards, who holds him in de-
fault of IS, GOO bail. II appears that Lee had a
bras key made with which he opened the
through pouches, and this morning he took out
twelve or more letters, from which he got
about so. These officers have already re-
covered drafts amounting to thirty or forty
thou and dollars, drawn in favor Of southern
firms for cotton. The officers deserve credit
for the manner of working up this case.

cipient of the esteem and confidence and
the magnanimous suffrage Of the people
OF Washington, the place where he was
born, reared, and had resided all his life We
have embarked in great enterprise in a cause
worthy our noblest aspirations, and the only
way we can expect and hope for success is that
every man, every white man, shall feel the
weighty responsibility which rests upon his
own shoulders. To achieve success in this
campaign will require upon the part of MANY
a sacrifice OF time, money, and talent; but is
not the cause worthy OF the efforts Shall We
bow down to the tyranny OF the faction which
SEE ks to rule us; or shall we stand up like men,
and 60 forward nObly TO work for the cause
which we nave espOusedE We have been re-
minded within the last few days that unless
we submit to this rule, unless tn in corrupuble
and unbrlbable faction obtain supremacy, Con.
gress will refuse to grant any appropriations to
aid the city In the work Of improvement. He
deemed such All assertion a libel upon Con-
gress-a libel upon the intelligence and gene.
rosity of that august body. He deemed II the
duty OF the white men Of the city of Washing
ton to prove to Congress and the country that
our citizens have been misrepresented to them
by horde Of miserable tricksters and dema-
gogues. In no city of the nation has there been
purer love OF country developed, or a more
law-abiding community than in Washington.
Mr.. Given counselled concert and harmony
among the citizens If they desired to ACHE We
success. Let us 60 forward a unit, as one
man. to attain the result expected. Little per-
sonal feelings must be sacrificed to the public
good. He made this appeal to the people for the
sake Of the cause in which we are engaged, not
for any personal reasons; but, burying all past
differences, we must strive to conquer. The
white men must come up to the work without
regard TO party; the patriotic and Constitution
loving people Of the country expect every
Washingtonian to do his duty. The sentiment
he would give TO the assembled audience was
"a union Of the citizens of Washington for the
sake Of TIE city" Actuated by these gen
erOus sentiments, our success is certain
beyond peradventure. Let us hope thai
after the first Monday in June next
We will breathe freer than we have for years
past; that we have been saved from the tyranny
OF a base faction.
Mr.. Givens address was listened to with re-
spectful attention by the large audience pres
ent- AT the conclusion of the remarks of MT
HlveI, the convention, having finished its du.
ties, adjourned sine de-
