Coroner Chalmers was summoned and proceeded to bold an inquest over the remains, and there being no evidence direct as to the shooting, a t mortem examination was made by Drs. Smithand Johnson. They found that the slug had struck the middle of the left temple passing obliquely through the skull backwards and towards the other side, making & breach through the substance of the part of the left hemisphere of the brain, perforating the dura matis of the cerebrum and lodging under it, against the inner surface of the skull where it was found. This wound, in their opinion, caused his death. The jury thereupon rendered a verdict that his death was caused by a ball from fire arms by some party to them unknown. At 4 o’clock in the afternoon the remains were removed to the depot attended by his relatives and @ number of friends, who left for Washington with them in the five o'clock Hie faneral will take place from the e of his parents, No 500 Peansylvania This resi avenue, Washington, during to-day. makes the fifth victim of the disgraceful and inhuman riots of Wednesday last.

Avaru —The alarm of fire, caused by 8 bonfire on Seventh [coMMUNICATED Mr. Editor: I was much delighted to sce in your columns, a few days since, a commu- nication in regard to the measures used in ourmarkets. Your correspondent has touched upon the matter nearest the hearts of # large m-jority of the citizens of Washington. It is @ notorious fact that the measures in our mar kew are continually crowing “ beautifully less.”” I presume there is not one person in ten (excepting those interested in small meas- ures) but would be much gratified to havea law passed by the corporation, bringing into use scales for the purpose of weighing such last night, was street. articles as apples, peaches, acd is fact everything that is not at present sold by the dozen orin this manner I sincerely hope and trust that our good Mayor, or some patri- otic Councilman. will teke the matter in charge, October 13, 1856, A Famity Man. he more Clipper mornin, black over the death of Y. 4 Throop of this city = in the en timore election riots, characterising as a“ and promising American ” and pbeniog ee for- eign-born citizens in its well known way, of course, in the same connection. The citizens of this city, many of whom knew the lawless and otherwise isreputable character of this young man well, will be sar- prised to see the Clipper’s statements Now, we have to say that the deceased was a = asone of most desperate of a gang youn; ies, Claves ad desperadoes, and had himself not unfrequently been in the hands of Officers of justice under charges of stealing. Towing, &c. On the day before the Baltimore election, he applied to a respectable citizen of Washington, who had been in the habit of hiring to him a gun for hunting, fora revolver, bo: ig that his purpose was to shoot a for- eigner, and saying that he was going to Balti- more He was refused. He then applied to another citizen for one, who slso refused to let him have it on being cautioned by the per- son who had first refased him. Previous to being shot he was seen to fire two shots at the Democrats from behind a grating near the base of the Washington Mon- ument. This we learned yesterday from one of the first citizens of Baltimore There is not a shadow of doubt of the truth of that fact, which will be proved beyond all question when the circumstances of, the fight at the Baltimore election shall be investigated We repeat this city held no more disrepu- table, mischievous and dangerous youth of his age than this ‘‘ young and promising Ameri- can’’ of the Clipper, who was such another as Washington Croggin, Bailey & Co. In view of these facts, our fellow-citizens, hundreds of whom are poeelly aware of their truth, will comprehend that this mis- guided young man, who had been a nuisance and a terror here for years, has simply met the fate that is apt to overtake such evildoers. — Bav Pavements —Mr. Editor: Allow me through the columns of your widely circulated and universally read paper, to call the atten- tion of the proper authorities to the wretched condition of the footway on each side of Thir- teenth, between E and ¥ streets. There are but few etreets in the city of Washington more handsomely built up than it, and there cer- tainly is not one where the pavements are so bad. The footways alluded to are rugged and worn out, and on the east side of the Street in some places there is none at all. retty much ailor, Ray, A Youne GuxtLeman of this city, called at an oyster stand a day or two since, and order- eda ‘dozen im the shell.” The order was attended to in a moment, and when he at tempted to swallow the first oyster, he felt some hard substance in his mouth, which he took out and placed on the stand beside him After the whole were disposed of, he examined the hard substance, which he supposed to be @ pebble, and discovered that it was a large and valuable pearl.

PuiILapetputa, Oct. 13.—The investigation into the case of the Shiffler Hose Company, to Cay, at the Mayor's Office, has attracted a large crowd. No coaclusive ence wae elicited One officer testified that he believed that John English, of Baltimore, was the one that fired the pistol, bat the slug taken from the body of the deceased was entirely too large for the pistol found on English, disprov- ing that charge. On the conclusion of the evidence a motion to discharge a portion of the prisoners on bail was ar; , but District Attorney Reed contended shat they should be remanded for trial on the charge cf murder and riot. The whole party—thirty-three in number—were then cofmmitted to jail. This decision has created much angry feeling among the friends of the prisoners. Application will be made to-morrow to Jud, Thompson for a writ of habeas corpus, in the eace of the Shiffer Hose Company. The ap- plication could not be made sooner because the primary investigation was not completed. As twenty-four hours must elapse after grant- ing the writ before the investigation can be made, the prisoners cannct be liberated on bail before Wednesday.
