Kealy. When we left the room Judge Crawford was delivering the opening charge to the Grend Jury. The balance of the day will probably be spent in forming a jury upon the Edward's case. Fine on tas Iscanp.—A fire was discov- ered among the wooden buildings on Seventh street (Island) near the corner of F street, about 20’clock this morning, and before it could be checked, a house and cigar shop be- longing to Mr. J. G@. Hall, and a house and tin shop belonging to Mr. Grinnell, were to- tally consumed. By the most strenuous exertions on the part of firemen and neighbors, the fire was pre- vented from crossing the alley and communi- cating with the neighboring wooden building, otherwise there must have resulted one of the most extensive conflagrations ever witnessed on the Island. Luckily the the wind, which was blowing sufficiently hard to convey burn- ing boards and other combustibles, with vio- lence, for some distance, was blowing in the direction of come o; ay und opposite. We learn that Mr. Hall was insured to the amount of four hundred dollars, and Mr. Grin- nell to the amount of seven hundred and fifty dollars. The fire is presumed to have been the work of an incendiary. Poxice IxTeLLicaxcs.—Captain Davis and his officers, having perfected the necessa: a ments, made a descent, about 3 o’cloc’ ose a afternoon, upon the house of Hen- ry Olive, near the National Theatre, and arrested the following colored gentlemen, who were found cn the premises engaged in “‘ fight- ing the tiger,’ (aliasfaro,) and kindred games: Wm. Cooper, Paul Wilson, John West, Rich- ard Knight, Caleb Batson, Wm. Butler, John Barker, Wm. Howard, Robt. Williams, Frank Rounds, Wm. Herbert, Chas. Walker, Henry Thompson, Geo. Barker, Thos. Brown, Wm. Cross, Joseph Whiting, George Coates. Arthur ; Bradner, Robert Seymour, Richard Sandig. g. A haul was made also of a lot of faro appa- tus, checks, sweat cloth, dice, packs of cards, &c. The parties arrested here were fined ten ] veep costs, each, by Justice Hollings- head. On the same afternoon Captain Davis and officers, made a descent upon an establishment at the corner of Sixth street and Pennsylvania Avenue, kept by a white man named Dennis Darden, arresting him for selling “‘ policies” to colored people, and he was fined at the same office fifty dollars and costs. Charles Ellis, James Butler, John Herbert, Thomas Ruasell, Spencer Day, Robert Dick, Charlies H. John- son, and William Pindle, (colored) who were arrested upon the premises, were fined five dollars each and costs. Tagarnica,.—The National Theatre will be re-opened to-night under the management of John T. Ford, who is already the popular conductor of the Holliday street Theatre, Baltimore, and the Marshall Theatre, Rich- mond, Va He has thus an opportunity of engaging eminent talent, which would not be remunerative for a single establishment, and he promises to render the National worthy the of the metropolis. ‘Richelieu,’ which is to be peformed this evening, is Bulwer’s dramatic master-peice. We have never seen Mr. Eddy, but he has been well spoken of where he has performed, aga young American actor, who 5 natural talent, and isa careful student. Of Mrs. Chapman, who appears in “‘ A Husband at Sight,”’ it is unnecessary to speak, for she is one of the most deservedly popular actresses in the country. Miss Maggie Mitchell is to appear on Wed- nesday. Bravo! AxorsER Cuaxce in the weather, and this time for the better; but ob, what a condition are the streets in after the snow of Saturday, the rain that followed the snow, and the freese that came upon the heels of the rain. Pennsylvania avenue is tolerably smooth ; but with this exception, the streets are terribly rough, the wud being frogen in ridges as solid as marble, interspersed with an occasional glacier, or ice crevice. ‘Jordan is a hard road to travel,” espe- cially if you go by the way of Washington directly after a snow, a thaw, and a freeze! We hope now for better things. The blue birds are out to day, and the lingering snow “albiet unused to the melting mood,” has fet & settler by the late rain which must ring on @ speedy dissolution. So mote it be. Fr A fire broke out about eleveno’clock yesterday morning in the house of Mr. Greg- ory, on Tenth street. opposite Col. Force’s. The room in which the fire was discovered was ecoupied by Mr. Smith, the editor of the Sen- tinel. The fire was occasioned by the care- lessness of a colored servant, who, to suppress @ fire in the chimney, hung a blanket across the fire-plaece without taking the precaution to wet it, and who afterwards threw the blanket, which had taken fire, under the bed before it wasentirely —— Considerable dam- age was done to the furniture, books, papers, &o., by fire and water epee, and probably through the rather rapid and unceremonious manner in which the furniture and documents were passed out the windows, over the baloo- nies, and into the street. Foxerat.—The funeral of P. G. Michael Breslin, yas Ty attended yesterday after- noon by Odd Fellows and others, notwith standing the inclemency of the weather and the condition of the streets. In the proces- sion which aceompanied the remains of the deceased from his residence near the Navy Yard to the Congressional Cemetery, were the Grand Lodge I. 0. 0.

Tae W asaixatox Aquepuct —Con, now b fally organized and ready for business, it is important that something shouid speedily be done in the way of an eariy appropriation im the deficiency bill, fer the continuation of the public works now commenced Among all these works none is of such great importance, not only to our own city but to the Govern. ment at large, as that of the water works commenced at the Great Falls a few years since. This is a great national matter, and should be treated and fostered as such. The writer of the communication fiatters himself that he is somowhat of @ connoisseur in mat- ters of this kind, and frsting aaxious to e: ainjne the route and its loca’ ion, undertook to take short trip for the purpose of judging of its merits and its practicabilities. After pre- paring himeelf with the proper data and the estimated cost of the improvement, he started down the line, at the Great Falls, from whence the water is to be supplied and passed along the whole survey to a distance of some fourteen miles, and he was well repaid for his task by the information which he gleaned from his personal examina- tion It is, indeed, a magnificent undertaking, and well worthy of our great and glorious re- public; and not only redects much credit on the liberality of Co: , but also the high- est honor on Captain sigs. the superintend- ent and originator of its sito and the eco- nomical design of its construction.

The fact is, Capt. Meigs will not only be abie to bring the water into Washington (provided Con; appro- priates early in the session) in the course of two years from this time, but he will be able to do it at a less sum than what his original estimate called for. In his report to Congress Jast session, he stated that he would pledge his official character that he would be able to supply the city with a sufficiency of water, at a certain specified time, and at a cost not ex- ceeding $2,300,000. From long experience in such matters, and from a careful and thorough calculation of the work already done and the amount yet to be done, the author of this article has no doubt whatever that Capt will not only make good his pledges. but that he will accomplish his undertaking at a cost consid- erably less than his estimates.

The citizens’ meeting, pursuant to call, con vened on Saturday evening, in the hall at Ex- change Block Though the evening was ex- ecedingly inclement, a large number were present. The meeting have organized by the appointment of F. L. Brocket, Esq., as chair- man. and Wm. F. Carne, as secretary. A committee reported resolutions condemnatory of a partizan spirit in the city government, demanding retrenchment, and protesting against increased salaries; suggesting that the clerks of the City Council and Gas Works should be directly responsible to the people, and inviting all friends of municipal reform to co-operate in an effort on behalf of equal rights, equal laws, and equal justice.

New Yors, Feb. 29, 1856. Advertising has become so intimately inter- woven with our social habits that it is now so customary to advertise for wives and husbands as to excite no surprise. The following, from some impulsive youth, appeared this morn- ing: ‘(I want a wife. Who will accept? Address Anxious,’’ &c. It would excite no wonder if some one advertised “A wife to sell, exchange, or mortgage.” The weather at this season is so precarious that it is not safe to give an opinion upon it. Yesterday we were congratulating ourselves ue stores in OING EVIDKNC than thres yearal have been suffering with rheumatism, nd joints.

In fact, that mythical ladeiauni has lost much prestige the present season The light of the ‘« Live Oak Clubs”’ has be- come extinguished since the nomination of Fillmore for the Presidency. They are now being ch. into ‘‘ National American As- sociations.’ The New Yorkers appear to be in great trouble at this moment, about a proper name for the great central park. It would be an act of charity if some friendly city would come to the rescue. Some are for calling it “Croton Park,”’ but the objection to thisis that we are already delu; with croton. Some propose “Manhattan,” but that isthe name of the island. One or two have been courageous enough to suggest ‘‘ Hiawatha,’’ while not a few are under the impression that a better Bame cannot be givenit than “ Highfalutin.”’ Navigation was resumed upon Long Island Sound, yesterday, after a closure of some weeks, by tho steamer “ Elm City,” which, after battling her way for twelve hours, finall succeeded in reaching New Haven, Connecti- cut. It is reported that she forced her wa: 4 in some | ereny through ice ten feet in thick- ness. L[f this is the cage, it could not have been very solid. After the “ Elm City” had opened a passage, a propeller from Provi- dense, Rhode Island, reached ourcity. Nay- igation on the Sound, may, therefore, be said to be open for the season. The Hudson must soon clear itself of ‘ice, if the present thaw lasts, as it drains a large extent of country, and rises in heavy floods by a small increase in its various tributaries. Large forces of men are employed, daily in clearing away the ice, snow, and refase matter from the streets. The Broadway merchants took the initiatory in the movement by paying for the removal of the matter in front of their: stores, whereupon the Corporation tock the er affering from dyspepais and in- digestion, generally speak volumes tn favor of this great cn- rative agent.
