«ist tat + G STAR. LOCAL INPELLIGENCE. Caaries W. Canntgax, Esq.—We give to our readers the following le‘ter from C. W. Carrigan, Eoq., which appeared inthe Organ of yesterday: Wasaryoron City, Maroh 8, 1855. Editor cf the American Organ : Sim: As you have published to. the world, inthe 1} jog column of your paper of this date, that [ aman ~‘Irich Catholic,” and as such was “imported to arouce the Duteh. Iris, and Catholics of Alexandria to action,” I he va will insert in an equally conspicuous pl. 5 this, my denial of the pro me — Lam uot “Irish,” bet American, in birth and feeling. My erondfsther and father can Doast ‘he same bir-b sight. Lam notan “Irish Cat in the Methodist faith, baptized in the Metho- dist Church, educated in a Methodist institu. tion, and bave the honor t> bear the name of ove of the founders of Methodism. who suffered much in behalt of religous toleration Taman America» Protestant who hates proso:iption, and is willing to allow a// men constitutional rights, the chiefest of which, is the right to worship God according to the dic- tates of conscience I have the honor to be, &c., Cuaries Wester Csraraay, ‘ge WEATHER has not been the subject of much notice of late in the papers. but now has called attention to itself by its boisterdus and even rude conduct of yesterday. Men were stepped by the wind on the street, and all sorts of antics played with their bats, and the Indies were ill treated to such an extent that they had to seek shelter. As if to conceal its conduct, the wind kicked up such a great cloud of dust that it pulled the wool (hate) completely over the eyes of the dear people. But it is an ill wind that blows no one any — This wind bas done more good than id the famous Gennin. with his army of brooms, in Broadway—the Avenue ig as clean as 8 parlor floor this morning. Tas Jait axp its Occupasts.—It is rather mournful for one who has anything of pride left to visit the Jail of this county and look upon the prisoners All colors, ages, sizes, and rexes, sre corfined in that awful place, either waiting punishment or being punished for the crimes they have committed. No com- piaint can be made cf their keeper, for every effort is made to keep the prisoners in com- fortable and bealthy conditions. We noticed some aged men, and soma small children ; some well-raised mev, who nre committed for trial at this court; some for important eases, othera for very small crimes. We believe full stice will be done them, and that appears to = all their ery. “Sam's” Anovut —This evening, that side- splitting clown, Sam Long, is to receive a ben eat. He advertises in a card in another col- umn to deliver a stump speech; if it be like that of the other evening. whon he waa adso- eating his cisime for the Presideaoy, in which he promized to sholisn whipping in the army and to introduce it into Congress, we think it ing grand. Then he is going eomio songs He ia to be sus- by the whole troups, among which the great fest of the day, the Perche de la Giube, wiil sppoar for the first time in Washingtun A number of volunteer songs, &c.. from gen- clemen of the city will be sung, and Bob Han- dy will give @ banjo solo. New Misses Cavrcz.—The Wealey Chapel congregation EET - — or Capiscl Hill come time sgo. which hes uired such streng h. tha: with the aid of peep mir congregaticn, they have been enabled to erect a@haodacme church. Key Messrs Brown and Dashiels officiated alternately during the year jast finished, with great success. We sxvpose that the mission will become a church, and that the conference no in session in Balti- more wil! ylace a pastor in charge. Against THe Ovvicer+—Ths cazez of the boye who were taken from the National Thea tr tre, tr obgtructing the pavement, has caxsed anattempt by a yougg ma whoconsiders him- self injured, to prosecute an cfficer for false arrest He went to Ju Ciark to obtain a warrant; but the Migistrate being unwilling toisene under the circumstances the yuunz man bas determined to lay his wrong belore the grand jury. Justice Clark was right in the course he pursued, because it not oniy saves himself from biame, but is s saving of expense to the Government. Repair or Pripées.—The Civil and Dip! Matic Appropriation bill conta‘ns an appro- Priation of $10,000, for the repair of the Poo. mac, Navy Yard, and upper bridges, and to refund to the Commissioner of Public Buitd- ings $3.000, advanced to him by the Corpora- tion of Washington, in 1453, and expended by him on the Potomac bridge, to repair tho damage by fre. 0 Feserar —The Columbia Ledge, I 0.0 F , having lost another one cf its members, Mr Donald Stewart, have made arrangements, we learn, to atiend bis fane to morrow stternoon, ut 2 o'clock. from late residence, corner of Eleventh and H sts , the procession to be preceded by a band of music, to Hc!mead’s burial ground, where the body ig to be interred. Crrmusat Court —Yesterdcy. after we left, the Court zentenced negroes Thomas Pratt, Peter Douglas: and Wm (ibbs; the first two to one year esch in jail, acd the third to nine months in jail. Tho court then adjourned until Monday. Low Warer.—As u-ual after a heavy north west gale, the water in the canal has disap- peared and leftthe mud, sand, and drainage of the gas works exposed to view. Of cour-e the boats in the river wil! have to vemain where they are until another opportunity ar Tives, if the ownera wish to bring them to the canal wharves. Dismissep —David Warner, colored, who was charged with obtainin:; under false pretences, was arr: by Stewart and taken before Justice Clark yesterdsy. Aft an examination of the faets, the Justice dis missed the ease, there being no evidence to sustain the charge Tuat Barver —We have not yet noticed the falling in of the iron bridge over tbe canal at Tenth street, though we havo before called the attentiva of the authorities to its cocdi- tion. Some folks think it perfect!y safe, and it may be, but we thiak the strengtbeniog of the stone steps leading to it wil! add to its safety, and secure the Carparstion from a suit for damages. Sorex Dassaxtre —Ure of thoee popular entertainments of Mons Cocl.eu is announced totake placeon Monday wight at Carusi’s Saloon. As there can be nothing more innocent in the line of amusements, than these Soirzer, we suppese the annouscement of one will bring a number of young persons. - Prcxpockets —We noticed last night the arrival in this city of a number of ‘fascy”’ boys, who are well known tothe police of other cities. They sre here ne doubt to practice Bpen thoes wae hav> money to be stolen. It would Le well fur the officere to be on the IooKvat. MuiiTary Parape —The new rifle company, Capt. Shekell, make their first paradeon Mon. day morning. They assemble st the Ci'y Hail at 9 o'clock, and will bs accompanied by the Nations! Greys as an escort. Tar Mancers.—Plenty for sale; customers pumerous; stock in exegilent order; prices as heretofore, and money scarce. Wares Returxs.—All that appears on the doeket is the nawesof eight lodgers, who were driven in by the wind Jast nigiut. GEORGETOWN CORRES PONDERCY. City Cowncils— Markets, &e.
