The OYSTER Wharf.-The mate on vessel
which came up from the lower Potomac said
yesterday hat the oyster war in the Chesa-
peake was creating great excitement near
the Potomac oyster beds. He said that the
men employed on the boats refused TO work
on Wednesday last because areport became
current that the Maryland officers would ar
rest certain parties employed there, who
were said to be implicated in the recent
fight between pirates and officers. The
men finally returned to work, he said, but
munily is expected at any time. He re.
ported that the oysters were III better con-
dition this season than for some time back,
and the catch was good.

CONFIRMATION SERVICES. -Rt. Rev. F.
NJ White, Bishop of the Episcopal Dio-
cese of Virginia, visited this city yesterday
and administered the rite of confirmation at
the three Episcopal churches. At Grace
Church in the morning class of four persons
enlisted under the banner of the Cross; at
ST. Pauls in the evening three, and at
Christ, at night, five. At each of the servi-
ces the Bishop preached able, interest
ing and impressive sermons which were at
tei1ive|y listened to by the congregations
present. Bishop Whittle is looking better
and is apparently stronger than when he
last visited this city and his many friends
here hope that his recent trip TO Europe
has benefited him and that his earthly labors
may have II long course yet to run.

MYSTERY SOLVED AT LAST.-On Friday,
the l4th OF last December, Mr. Hugh Pagan,
whose conduct had been erratic for some
time, started on one of the ferry boats for
Washington accompanied by his father.
When the steamer eutered the dock at the
latter city, Mr. Fagan's father went into
the cabin for Il moment, leaving his charge
out on the deck, but upon returning found
his sou had disappeared. The boat
WAS searched and every effort made to AZ
certain the whereabouts of Mr.. Pagan with
out success, and his father i'll whose
charge he had been placed Was compelled
to return houe without aim. Inc affair
created quite Il sensation, aud various the
Dries were advanced in order 10 Tilt the veil
from the mystery, the most rational one
of which unfortunately time has proved
correct. From the time Of Mr.. rs. unac'
countable disappearance until Saturday his
family had fuctuatcd between nope and
despair as to his real fate, some persons
averring that he had been seen i'll Fairfax
number believed he had jumped Or fallen
from The steamer and been drowned, and
the river was dragged around The Washing
ton wharves for the purpose OF recovering
the body As stated, however, 1T was nci
until last Saturday that the fate OF the I'M
fortunate man Was rendered positive by
persons on one Of the ferry boats discover
ing human body floating in the river near
Geisboro The saline was soon after secured
aud taken ashore. and Identified as the re-
mains OF The missing man. a coroner IN
quest was held yesterday, after which the
body was brought here and this mornln"
Inferred, the funeral services taking place
in ST. Mary's Church Whether Mr.. Pagan
jumped from the boat or accidentally fell III
the river is, Of course, unknown, and VIII
doubtless remain 50 until the day when
that which has been done III secret shall tie
proclaimed upon the housc-tops.
