They left the cham er, and, after a short absence, returned, accompanied by the Mayor elect, who made the following address My friends and fellow-citizens:“I am here for the purpose of complying with that provi- sion of the charter which requires the Mayor to take an oath “lawfully to execute the du- ties of his office to the best of his skill and judgment without fear or partiality.’ But before doing so I desire to make a few obser- vations relative to our mutual obligations to each other. You have, by your suffrages, made it my duty to see that the laws enacted for your sovernment are enforced ; that the peace of the city is preserved and its best in- terests are promoted; and it is my purpose to do all this as far asthe means at my command willenable me. It is, on the other hand, your duty as good citizens, not only to respect and obey the laws, but to aid the authorities in maintsining them without regard to persons. Punishments are not ordained merely to show that the law is See or to resent a wrong done, or to deter the detected culprit from the repetition of wrong, but for the still higher purpose of exercising a moral influence by the foree of example, and the more exalted the subject of the example the more salutary nfluence will be. i trust, therefore, my tellow-citizens, that you will ay preciate the motive which will induce me to fea the well informed and the affluent to @ stricter and higher accountability than the ignorant and hun ble. I desire to call your particular attention to Le condition of the youth of our city, and to Tnestly entreat every father, mother, and guardian to aid by the sternest exercise of all Property authority in checking those demor alizing practices which now so generally pre- vail Children can bave no proper employ- ment in the streets after night, and when they are allowed, as they now too generally are, to remain out until late hours, the inevitable ensequerce is that they fall into bad com- t soy, and are taught the habits of the vicious. ires and scenes of excitement generally, are bot proper places for boys, and the law posi- tively probibits minors running with the fire apparatus I shall feel it to be my solemn daty to exert myself to correct these evils, and in doing sv I shall confidently rely on receivin; the suppe d countenance of eve; ps citizen. I am now prepared to take t prescribed by law.

Tue Forrser Hearine.—On vr two more witnesses in the case of Justice Hoilings- head were examined by Justice Clark. Thos. W. Maires was sworn, and gave testi- mony similar to that given by him at the trial of Wilson before Justice Goddard, and pub- lished in the Star. Thos. Eckert sworn —Saw no act of conni- vance on the part of Justice Hollingshead; Wilson told him the prisoner had eseaped ten minutes before it was announced to Justice Hollingshead; told Parham the prisoner (Es- sex) had escaped; Parham said he knew it Mr. Hollingshead asked for a dismissal of the case, as he had appeared three times, and there was no evidence against him. Justice Clark refused, stating as his reason that before he could do so he must hear all the witnesses for the prosecution. The subpenas had been issued on the 5th, and no returned had yet been made. He did not know that the officer had intentionally neglected his duty ; but if such was the fact, he (the Justice) would report the officer to the court, he having no control over him. The case was again postponed. Tarp District Ponice Urrice.—The fol- lowing cases were disposed of by Justice Hol- lingshead: John and Samuel Runnels, fight- ing and cago security for peace; J.

Fouxp Dzap.—A handsome white male in- fant was found on Saturday evening on Tenth street in the Seventh Ward, in a spot where it is supposed to have been placed the night previous. It was tind ea in a coarse bag, which had been noticed during the day by various persons. A colored man passing acci- dentally stepped upon it and uncovered the head and face of the child. The coroner was sent for to hold an inquest. Serious Cuarce.—Last Friday, the police firm of Kimball and Norwood arrested Pat- tick Barret, who was charged with the suspi- cion of malicious mischief in various ways, te the use of vitriol. The charges are that he attempted to administer the vitriol to a colored boy; put a quantity ona valuable dog, &c. Justice Offutt committed him to jail for a’ hearing. — Essex.—It was reported yesterday, and generally believed that Officers Cox, Keese, and King, who were sent in pursuit of John Essex, had captured him in Montgomery. We are informed to-day by one of these offi- cers that such is not the case They came upon his track at a house where he had stopped, but not until after he had left. TRE RAIN yesterday, is said, by those who have kept the run of such events, to have been the heaviest that has fallen for two years. A measurement last night showed a fall of 34 inches.

F —— [communicatED Tue Nationa, Taezatre axp Mrs Far- nex —Mr. Editor: I see this morning by the bills posted at the corners of our streets, that the popular actress and accomplished lady named at the head of this article, will com- mence a short engagement at the National this evening. I am not in the habit of writing articles for the press for the purpose of puffing small fry actors, but having visited the Na- tional several times this winter with much satisfaction, I crave your patience while Isay & few words in favor of one who is a particu- lar favorite with me, and [ believe with the people of Washington. Mrs. Farren appears this evening in “Jane Shore,’ and in the character of Peg Woffington, in the play of ‘‘ Masks and Faces ’’ To those who have had the opportunity of seeing Mrs Farren in the character of Jane Shore, no further induce- ment is necessary for them to witness it again. But to thoge who have not had that leasure, permit me to say go and see a performance not often enjoyed in this city. The character of Peg Woffington is one in which Mra Farren will display all that talent for which she is so justly celebrated, and I hope that the play- going citizens of Washington will show by their presence that they can appreciate good acting. { need not say to this people that apart from her celebrity as an actress, Mrs. Farren is worthy of their patronage and favor, and deserves to be, as she really is, a favorite in the Capitol of the Union. at some future time say something about the management of the National, but [ have no more time at present than merely to say that I know of no place of ths kind where those who patronize the stage are more secure from rodyism, and, judging from the past, the like results may be relied on for the future, June 9th B.

BROADDUB, To the Editor of the Evening Star: Westminster, Carroll Co.,Md., )} June 2, 1856 { Str :—Influenced by a sense of duty I owe to mankind, I would repectfully uest the insertion in your paper of the following state- ment of my illness and recovery from con- sumption: During the fall of 1854 I was violently affected with oold, followed by a disagreeable cough, which continued some months, being increased by each additional cold. Towards the last of January, 1855, a Severe pain commenced in the right side below the collar bone, accompanied with severe cough night and day. had great difficulty in breathing and coughed up thick yellow matter, cecasionally mixed with blood. My strength and flesh wasted away, and I suffer- ed with night eweats. chills, and all the symp- toms of confirmed hectic fever Under these circumstances [ could not doubt but my lungs were very much affected, and I had no hope of recovery. Upon an examination of my chest at this time, a large cavity was detected in the right lung underneath the collar bone. Sach was the state of my case on the Ist of June, 1855, with the symptoms increasing in violence, when | was advised by my physician to try the virtue of inhalation under the di- rection of Doctor Hunter, of No. 52 North Charles street, Baltimore. I had not long to wait for evidence of improvement. The cough soon became less severe, the matter was raised from the lungs without much effort, sleep be- came sweet and refreshing, appetite returned, flesh increased, and I soon had the evidence that I wason the road to improvement. My friends also discovered the improvement, and would remark, ‘‘ Evans will get well.’’ It is now about ten months since I was put under treatment by Dr. Hunter, I have been grad- ually improving ever since ; so much so that I consider myself cured. I am able to discon- tinue treatment, and do my regular day’s work. I should have said that the fact of a cavity having beenin my lungs ismade evident by my cheat being considerably sunken where it existed. Under these circumstances I feel it my duty to earnestly recommend all persons afflicted in the same manner as myself, to apply at once to Drs. Hunter & Williams, 52 North Charles street, Baltimore, where, I feel assured, they will be perfectly satisfied. Yours, respectfully, Levi Evans. References—Wm A. Mathias, M. D., Jesee L. Warfield, M.
