port, was arrested on Thursday morn
ing and taken before Esq. Henry Boy

store of Augustus Oswald, of that
place, on the previous night. Before

made by him, that he was not from

until 6 next morning, whereupon he
was discharged. The boy Wilson then
acknowledged that he was not with

accused as an aceomplice, had told him
to break into the store. Wilson, in de

COL. JOSEPH JOHNSTON.

There are few of the habitues of the Phoenix
Saloon, adjoining the Academy of Music, who
do not remember the pleasant and ever smll-
ing9 face of Col Joseph Johnston, and they
will be panied to learn that yesterday at noon
he breathed his last.
Col Johns ton, as he was most familiarly
known, first came to this city in the year
1S47 from Charleston, at which place he had
arrived short time before from his native
land.
He was first employed in the ship chand-
lery store of H. Bidwell & Co., where he re-
NAMED until 1854.
An engagement then being rendered him
with the Buckley Serenaders, he visited
Europe as their agent.
Previous to his departure, he was for some
time engaged at the Academy of Music in its
early days as general superintendent. Sever
ing his connection in England with the Buck
leys he was at once employed by Howe's
American Circus as their confidential agent.
and remained with them, pending their stay
there.
Being offered responsible position in q
large house in London he accepted it, and
between that place and Liverpool was &C
lively engaged in commerce for some years.
Whilst on visit to Great Britain David
Bidwell, ESQ, focnd him suffering from
severe attack of the asthma, and offered him
q home in the Crescent City.
He arrived here in 1868 for the second time,
and took the general supervision of the Ph@-
nix House, since which time he has been &C
lively engaged in advancing the interests OF
that popular place of resort
A man endowed with the most generous
impulse and enjoying q popularity seldom
realized by stranger, his demise will cause
blank in the community which will long
remain untitled.

A SENSIBLE RECALL.

The telegram from the Naval Department
ordering the United States steamer Dispatch
to Washington, and the consequent disband-
ing of the contemplated excursion party to
Mexico, is an exceedingly healthy and signi-
ficant exhibition Of the power of popular
opinion put forth through the medium of the
public press. Of course, Senator Cameron
and his friends obtained the vessel by the
formal permission OF Secretary Robson, and
there is not the slightest doubt that they
would have been allowed to continue their
voyage in her, had not the newspapers taken
hold of the matter and virtually compelled a
not specially needed at Washington, but she
is recalled there because her real owners,
the people, have, through their only efficient
organ, demanded return to her legitimate
avocation. The Secretary is entitled to
thanks for his prompt obedience to the popu-
lar mandate
Oar New Orleans special states that Cam
eron says che pays the entire expense Of the
steamer while in his service, even to coal and
salaries of men; and that he will, if there be
no war with Mexico, get up another e1cur-
sion in the fall" Now, while we are certainly
glad to know that the Pennsylvania Senator
will foot all the bills contracted during the
trip just brought to such sudden aud suita-

the case. There is principle involved in it
entirely beyond the mere pecuniary consid-
Grafton. The Dispatch, like all other Govern
ment ships, was built and commissioned ex-
clusively for Government service. Neither
the Secretary OF the Navy, nor the President,
nor Congress, has a right to use her, or allow
her to be used, under any pretext whatever
for private purposes
II Mr.. Robson wants to send his family
and equipages to Portsmouth by sea, let him
charter q merchant steamer, as any private
citizen would have to do. If the President
desires to reach Long Branch by the ocean
route, let him do so by similar conveyance
If members of Congress wish to take a
pleasure excursion, let them employ the
ordinary facilities for travel. If the govern
ment or Congress deem it necessary to send
commissioners anywhere on public business,
and that business can be best accomplished
by employing vessel belonging to the navy,
let it be so ordered. This latter service is
strictly leg ultimate; the others are altogether
illegitimate, and whenever practiced merit
sharp condemnation.
Such is the view the people take of the
matter, and which they insist shall be faith
fully and impartially enforced. Therefore we
trust if Cameron gets up another Mexican
pleasure party in the fall he will be prohib-
tied from using either the Dispatch or any
other ship attachedto the navy, on any terms.
The people do not construct and maintain a
navy for such works.. Louis Republican,
