EVENING STAR. mbered that at the time of the arrest of ey arties concerned in the late burglarics, that Mr. Euipys. engraver, was robbed of cer- tain jewelry. Yesterday, Mr. M. Ruppel, who owned a ring lost with other goods from shy store, 887 Re ete on the finger of Mr. Jas. Allen, had veya — for his possession of it. pon a hearing be- ae Justice Goddard it was shown that Mr. Allen was a member of the Auxili Guard, and after the arrest of Croggin and Ray, Mr. Allen obtained from them a pawnbrokers ticket describing ring and acknowledging a de- posit of it. He, y means of the ticket, ob- tained the ring, and in order to find the owner, wore it upon bis finger, wheré it was seen by Mr Ruppel. Mr Alien expressed pleasure that the owner had been found, and his ex- planation was satisfactory to the magistrate and all the partiesconcerned. Mr. Allen was acquitted honorably ; the ring placed in the bands of Captain Birch, who upon the evi- dence obtained, committed Sahig and Ray for trial on the charge of robbiog Mr. Phipps. Tae Case Continvep.—At 5 o’clock yes- terday afternoon, Justice Clark’s office was filled with person’s gathered to hear the testi mony in the case of Justice Hollingshead Mr. Hollingshead was there, and said he was ready to proceed. TheJustice stated that it was proper to wait a few moments, and prob- ably some witnesses for the Government would be brought in. Mr. Hollingshead stated that he did not see that the Justice re- uired any other testimony, nor did he see that there was any need of witnesses for his own defence ; the evidence of Mr. Wilson was sufficient for him. After some conversation between Mr. Hollingshead and the Justice, Mr. Goilingshend withdrew—the Justice re markieg that there was no evidence upon which to hold him, but if any should come he would notify him of it. He supposed that the officer had summoned the witnesses to the court room instead of bringing them to the office. Should the witnesses bsin attendance, we learn the examination will be resumed at five o'clock this evening.

Damage sy THE Raw —A large portion of the long arch over the run in the square bounded by Ninth and Tenth streets west, and E and F streets north, was thrown down by the water aicer the heavy rain of Thursday night. Itis a serious loss to some one, but whether to the contractor or owner of the roperty, we are unable tosay. That square i been greatly improved within a year or two, and tne covering of this stream was onl preliminary toother improvements. Our citi- zens can sympathize with any one who has been Iuboring under great disadvantage to ,e property, if their arrangements when completed are suddenly destroyed. nearly Urser —Last evening, as Professor Ruggles was passing along the narrow earriege way from C street to the avena~, near Stott’s drug in a light carriage, acoachman, driving y, entangled the wheels of his coach these of the Professor's carriage, and, ead of stopping his horses, to release the els, he put whip to them, upsetting the ht earrioge and placing the Professor's life in danger. Fortunat the horse in the up- set carriage, by struggling, freed himself from the barnesss, and the Professor ectaped by the side door withort injury. The carriage and harness were considerably damaged. The name of the coachman was not known to those around. Yorse Men's Curistian Assoctation.— The following delegates have been elected to represent the Young Men’s Christian Assucia- tion of Washington at the third annual con- vention of the associations of the United States and British Provinces, to be held on the 19th of June at Montreal: Wm.

Arrangements have been made by which delegates can attend the Convention at reduced fares, and any who wizh to go can obtain particulars at the rooms this evening. ra Centres Marxet.— Notwithstanding the un- favorable appearance of the weather quite a number of farmers and gardeners were inthe market this morning. The south side of Penn- sylvania avenue, between Ninth and Tenth Streets, was occupied a considerable dis by couatry wagons. The hay marke rly supplied ; but the butchers and huck- Ts were all at their posts. The market was rather uncomfortable—the pavements being wet amd muddy. Dealers appeared to be anx- ious to get to their homes, and consequently prices were a little lower than usual.

Every bedy we meet is on the guz vive for the ocra- sion, and from ail the indications, the coth- mittee of arrangements will have to provide two steamboats at least, to convey all who are anxious togo. However, the public may count upen being amply provided for.

Mr. Elliot had a small amount of money and a through ticket to Philadelphia upon his person. He is said to be connected with the Southern Telegraph Company Diswisseo.—All the warrants issued by Justice Hollingshead against certain citizens of the northern portion of the city for threats, assaults, &c., on the day of election, were dis- missed by request of the parties prosecuting, who were anxious to allay excitement and re- tain the friendsbip of their opponents. Most f the aceused have always sustained the rep- tation of good, quict citizens. Tue Amnivacs at the principal hotels have been comparatively small since the sitting of the Ciocinnati Convention.

Cixcurwati, June 6.—At 10 o’civck, 8. m., the President called the Convention to order. The hall was not full when the balloting com- menced. When Maine was called for her vote she east seven for Buchanan and one for Pierce. When Vermont was called, Mr. Hibbard, of N. H., said, that by a unanimous vote the del egation, having thus far supported Mr. Pierce, bad now determined to casi her vote for Ste- phen A. Douglas. [Applause North Carolina then led in the same track, followed by South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, and Texas. Tennessee east her twelve votes for Buchanan, and Mr. Pierce ran down to three votes The New York Softs went over to Mr. las on the sixteenth ballot, and Maine concen- trated her vote on Mr. Buchanan Ohio also gave him two more. Kentucky cast all her votes for Douglas. having previously given him but seven The half votes were rejected by the Chair. After the announcement of the result, Mr. Preston, of Ky , said that his delegation had stood firmty by Mr Douglas to this point, but he now felt confident that the Convention de- manded Mr. Buchanan. He was equally con- fident that the friends of Mr. Douglas would best conform to his wishes by yielding at once, and cheerfully, to the wishes of the Conven- tion. Mr. Richardson said that, without advising with any gentleman as to the wishes of his constituents, he felt that he had a duty to per- form to them and to the State he represented. [Cries of “ Don’t withdraw him.’’| He felt that he could not contribute to the success of the party or carry out the views of Mr. Doug- las by continuing him longer in the contest. {Immense applause.} He had received ades- patch from Mr. Douglas which he desired to read, and afier that he would withdraw his name. Mr. R. then read the despatch from Mr. Douglas, stating that from the telegraphic ac- counts he felt confident that a longer contin- uance of his name before the Convention would tend to disturb the harmony of the Conven- tion, and he desired to withdraw, simply sta- ting that he believed the democracy would do well to unite and vote for one of the candi dates now before the Convention—either Mr. Pierce or Mr. Buchanan. {Immenseapplause | Gov. Seymour endeavored to address the Convention, but was for some time prevented y the uproar and confusion. He said that ew York had, up to this time, been united upon one point, viz : the propriety of adhering to one or the otherof the nominees now before the Convention. They had adhored to Mr. Pieree as long as he had a vote in the Conven- tion. They had then cast their vote for Mr. Douglas. That candidate had now been withdrawn. The Softs desired todo all in their power to harmonize and consolidate the vote of the Convention. | Immense applause. | The seventeenth ballot was then taken. New Hawpshire cast her vote for Buchanan— Mr. Hibbard making a speech in explanation. Every delegation which arose had some- thing to say Mr. Ludlow (for the Softs) said, although the Softs came into the Convention under every disadvantage, they had no desire to do aught to promote the continuance of any fac- tion in the preat State of New York. They, therefore, cast their eighteen votes for Mr. Buchanan. The Convention continued in a state of the wildest excitement, as State after State gave a plumper for Mr. Buchanan. Mr. Avery, of N. C., said that his State loved Buchanan, and reminded the Conyen- tion that four years ago he had been their first choice. They then yielded him cheer. fully as they now yielded Messrs Pierce and Douglas. Qorth Carolina came here with a desire to support the candidate who had proved himself truest to the Union and the constitution. To this end they had cast their vote first for Mr. Pierce, then for Mr. Douglas, and now they gave their entire vote to Mr. Buchanan. Col. Medary congratulated the Convention that Ohio had no longer a fractional vote to cast upon the platform of the Convention. Ohio was willing to fight under the nomine none would yield more cheerfully than hi, self, and he would say the same for the en- tire delegation. As Ohio had been exact hith- erto in mathematically dividing her vote, she would now be quite as exact in casting the entire number for Buchanan. He pledged the State for the favorite of Pennsylvania. Mr. Richardeon, of Iil., said that every mem- ber of the convention had endorsed the politi- cal course of Mr. Douglas, which any man might be proud of, and he could assure the convention that while Illinois’ choice was of, course, her favorite son, yet he yielded bis State in appreciation of tne political character of James Buchanan. Mr ——,, of Ark , pledged the largest com- parative majority in the Union for the nominee, atticularly if the choice of his State for Vice resident should be satisfied—their candidate for that office was Gen. Quitman. Mr. Inge, of Cal., eaid his delegation came here with the choice of every member fixed on the present ncminee; but they came also with instructions to secure the expression of the con- vention in favor of some easy means of com- munication between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Ho believed Mr. Buchanan did not concur in the opposition to the exercise of all constitutional power to secure an easy postal communication between the two oceans. They therefore cast their votes for him. Mr. Dawson, of Pa, expressed the thanks of his State for the honor done her through their endorsement of her favorite son. After he had taken his seat he again arose and said that, in serving the claims of the candidates he had forgotten tc name Franklin Pierce. {Laughter and cheers | He then declared his approval of the course of the administration, which would receive from the people on his re- tirement the endorsement of “Well done, thou good and faithful servant.”’ The vote was then announced, being 296 for Mr. Buchanan. [Immense cheering, which did not cease until three tremendous rounds had been given for the nominee. Three equally enthusiastic cheers were given for r. Douglas, and three more for Mr. Pierce. Col. Black, of Pa , returned thanks for the unanimous vote which had been cast for James Buchanan, in his remarks pledging Pennsyi- vania to constant devotion to the Union. His remarks were well received. The resolution endorsing the present adm‘n- istration was then introduced by Mr. Hallett, of Massachusetts. The resolution being put, some ‘ noes’’ re- sponded, but the President declared the vote unanimous in the affirmative. Mr. Peck, of Mieh , said he protested against such a decision. He would neverconsent that the great Northwest should be slandered and stultified by the supposition that she endorsed the administration of Mr Pierce. Mr. Wright, of Pa . hoped that tho majority report on New York should be stricken from the minutes; and, in order that all differences might be settled, he would offer a resolution recommending both sections to agree upon holding a State convention to settle upon an organization and make preparations for the nomination of a single electoral ticket. Judge Beardsley (on the part of the Hards) assured the Convention that the National Democratic party of New York would work cheerfully ragh egestas 4 for the success of the ticket, for the union of both parties, and healing past difficulties Mr. Ludlow expressed similar views on the part of the Softs. Gov. Seymour rose and made an able and conciliatory speech, alluding to the time when the Democracy of New York was united, and promising to return to those halcyon days. The resolutions were then adopted, and the Convention adjourned till 2 p. m. AFTERNOON SESSION. On peeling, a resolution pledging all the constitutional powers of the government to the construction of a railroad to the Pacific, was adopted by ayes 205, nays 85. The Con- vention then proceeded to ballot for a candi- date for Vice President, with the following result : John C. Breckinridge, of Ky.... John A. Quitman, of Miss. Linn Boyd, of Ky........

It is perfectly harmless, as it does not burn on the surface or generate any explosive gas; but its greatest recommendation is that it costs in the end rearly one half less than any other ofl now used for giving light.
