ARREST OF ONE OF THR ACCUSED PARTIES
10 will be remembered that in January last
one OF the rooms OF the Internal Revenue de-
paTtmeDt was robbed OF Treasury warrants to
the amount Of s12 600, and that James K Moore
and r. a. Williams were arrested ION the
charge OF being the perpetrators of the theft)
several days afterwards IN New York, and were
delivered to Detectives Miller and McDeyitt
Who brought them to this city. Ga the 10th of
January they had a hearing before Commits
1Oner John j. johnson, who committed them
% all ID default of IS 900 bail each. ON the eth
OF February they were indicted but before the
day set for the trial arrived a requislJiOn was
the prisoners having been indicted in Philsdel-
some OF the EsTTRnts-and they were surren-
deTed TO the Philadelphia officers. Last
sum- eT, when being taken to court IN PhiIs-
delphia, they by some means managed to
escape, and up &c this morning both had been
at large. For some time past the officers Of the
secret service OF the Treasury have been en-
deavOTiDg TO re-srrest the accused, and this
morning Assistant Chief Benson received in
formation that Moore had arrived in town and
going TO No. 1901 G. street. where Mrs Moore
resides, took him into custody. Moore states
that be has been about New York since his
escape from Philadelphia, and having been in
formed that a nOlle prOsequi had been entered
in the Indictment here he came home under the
impression that he would not be mOlested. Mr.
Benson took his prisoner TO the Treasury de-
paTtment, and after informing District AttOr-
ney Fisher OF the fact, as also the marshal, de-
hveTed the prisoner to the latter, who commit
ted him 70 jail on bench warrant.

listers in this city proposition to include stem
perance " az usual elsewhere, among the topics
ior the week OF prayer, was voted down-and
that on motion Of q clergyman occupying a
prominent civil as well as ecclesiastical posi-
tor? And ts the further statement true, that
this same Christian pastor had previously op-
posed in ublic the ordinary efforts against this
great scouTge Of the land, saying that prayer is
the proper weapon? L ask these questions not
only in the interests Of Temperance but OF reli-
giOn, more cruelty wounded in the house of its
friends by such means than by any assaults
from its enemies. Such action should be denied,
or, If possible, explained.

The Lord has only called his own,
To dwell with him around the throne
Prepare us, Lord, to ask in prayer,
To meet our dearest father there.
Dcdr HnOlncr sat All Udtucu III tcdrs,
And watched his bed for many years;
Sons, daughters, too, had watched his bed
And tried to soothe his restless head.
With aching heart, night after night;
We all have set till morning light,
Aud tried 10 soothe away his pain,
But all our efforts were in vain.
We hope one day TO meet
Our dearest father in the heavenly street;
Where we shall join in hand and heart,
And never, never part.
oh, what happy time it Aili be,
When We each others face shall see,
On Canaan's bright and happy shore,
Where VIC shall part no more.
We should not weep, but dry our tears;
In pain he suffered many years
He suffered hard, he suffered long,
But now he sings an angels song.
In yonder graveyard on the hill,
Our father lies so cold and still;
His body buried beneath the sod,
His spirit by angels conveyed to his God.
