These frequent detentions interfered greatly with the arrangements by their unexpected consumption of time, and neces- sitated the abandonment of part of the conteimn- . The quiet, bowever, was taken ntage of to procure sleep, and in 2 short the ship presented a scene of somnolence worthy the penci! of an artist, for the variety of costume and itionseftbemen. EKirly Thurs. day morning \t was proposed to secure the anchor and proceed up to Washington, and from there pay a visit to Mount Vernon, and thence proceed eme. The generat chagrin may be imagined when it was found just after daylight that the ship had run aground again. There wer noalter- native but to keep in good humer, and the boys weat to work with a will, at the request of Capt Lowber. to get the ship off. The small boats were lowered and loaded with a heavy anchor, attached to bawser They were rowed a short «distance from the ship, and an attempt made to drop the anchor, when it went over witna splash, taking ene of the boats down with it stera fore- most. aad tossing the men ont as from an upset whaleboat. Fortunately no one wax injured, and the anchor taking a yood hold, the men xtasped the bawser, the line extending the whole leagth of the <bip, and commenced pulling like oid salts. The steamer soon began to move slowly, and by keeping the rope moving, each man maning back and taking bold again when he had reached the bows, the ship was washed off the shoal, ard the beavy ancher lifted br main force out of the water ‘The scene woe je in the extreme, and all sorts of jokes were carried on during the operation. Nota few of the mea stripped and took a bath in the Poto- mae, the vessel being several hours on the rocks. Pre following order Was issued on Thursday mefhiag : Headquarters Seventh Regiment, N.Y Troop ship Ericsson. Potomac River, July 8, 1853-7 4 A.M. The regiment will parade on the arrival of the 1. steamer in full uniform, white trowsers, krapsacks, with gray trowsers, fatigue caps and jackets packed therein, to proceed to Wasbing- ten city. By order: A. Duryea, Colonel. Sinith, Acting Adjotant. As the ship was yet aground, some surprise Won manifested; but it was soon mede known thet a propeller had come alongside and taken eff the Quartermaster aud bis assistants, for the purpose of going to Washington and chartering «steamer. "Various efforts were made to get the suip of the rock in the meantime. COURT MARTIALING THE PILoT. Thongh the indignation at the incompetency of the piiot was universal, it manifested itself xoed natnredty and it was determined by way of veut for this feeling, as well as for the amuse- inent of the company, to try the delinquent by a court martial. The court was constitated as fol- lows Sepreme Court—Steamer Ericsson. — Before lve Win. Halstead, July §, ins? —The people t Joun Doe, the pilot of the Ericsson, for ' ing the boat ashore. Mayor Mayo, of Rich- mond, for tbe prosecution, and Messrs. Charles Bibcock and F. W. King for the defeitce. The court was beld on the quarter deck, the nudge being seated on the wheel house, with a a ick coat on, turned back foremost, and Colonel Duryea’s eyeyiayses. One of the Guard officiated “ws peticeman to keep the crowd in order, and Messrs. E. Jenkins aud J. W Sheppard acted as courtclerks. The prisouer was excused from at- tend. on account of pressing duties. Some person was found tampering with the jury, and it was proposed to call out the Seventh regiment to preserve order. One of the jurors objected to nerve, as he bad formed an opinion, but he was pressed in the service. Another juror was dis- covered taking » bribe, but the court held that the off-nce was too common to disqualify bim. ‘The jary were then sworn to “teil the truth, so help them Bob:'? but on the suggestion of the court that they were not to testify, they were a#worn to hear, if they could Mayor Mayo then opened the case for the prose- vention, stating brieily the acensation that the pilot Lad put the ship on a rock, instead of in Washingtoa harbor, aud that he had wilfully, talsely and fraudulently represented himself io wa pilot. He recommended the confiscation of the pilot's boat, and that he be tied to the end of a line to serve ax a sounding lead. ee yor Ware was the first witness, and swore he did not know anything about the case; and on *foss-examiination expressed his doubts as to whether he was on the Ericsson or not Mr. Brumly was ‘.¢ next witness, and testified tbat he heard the pilot tell the captain that be knew the channel, and could take the ship up lis evidence was, however, objected to on ac- count of bis head being shaved. and also because he acknowledged having been fed on bam. Mr. King opened the case for the prosecution, and moved to dismiss the indictment on the xfound that the offence was not a criminal one, vat Wax the subject of a civil suit; also that there Was no evidence that the ship had been run on the bar or that the pilot would not have kept the bargain if they had given him time Sergeant Dyer and Col. Lefferts were then ex- amined as to their knowledge of the case, bat vothing material was elicited except the fact fbat the officers, as well as the men, bad been ced on ham, which was considered a strony poiut for the defence Sergeant Jenkins testified that the cook was oasible for the mishap, the ship having a m the layer bier bar white he was feedta che dog. He bad been fed on pilot buscuit, and felt capable of speaking as to all marine matters Mayer Mayo and Mr. Babcock summed up respectively for the provecution and defence, making some very strong points.

The sen- ss that he should wait until a collection could be taken up to get him a new coat. EN ROUTE FOR WASHINGT All eiforts to yet the skip o! proved futile, aad it was with no little delight that about half-past three a steamboat was dis- covered coming down the river. She Proved to be the Thomas Collyer, a Mount Vernon boat, which had come down the river to meet the Ericsson, and bad passed the propeller, on board ef which was the Quariermaster, from whom tue position ef the Eriesson had been learned. She was. however, too smati to contain half the regiment, and it was d-cided to send up three companies on her, the rest waiting for the other boat to come down and take them up. The scene cf the depaiture was enlivening The Collyer sailed around the Ericsson, snd amid hearty cheers and music from the band beaded up the river abou: a quarter to 6.

Seceonp District Hich Scnoot—Fimale De- partment; Mrs. Susan P. Randolph, Teacher — This school was examined on last Friday after- noon, in the schoolhouse on Judiciary square; and the occasion was no less interesting than the examinations of the other schools for females in the city. Neither did the scholars show any in- feriority in their attainments to those of other schools generally, although the examination was not conducted with the same regard to system as was observed in several others, and, on this account, a looker-on might be induced to give the highest meed of praise to others. This was not, Lowever, the fault of the teacher, but rather those who condacted the exercises The examination was attended by the follow- nembers of the Board of Trustees: Col. Ran- dolpt; Drs. Ironsides and Willett; Mr. Law- renson; Mr. Ricketts, Secretary ; and Mr. Hat- baugh, Treasurer. Also, by the following visiters: T. J.

That pump at the corner of New York avenue and Ninth street ix out of order, and should be attendence to at once. Aw Invustaiat Hive —Theshirt manufactory of Mr. Menry Noyes, on Ninth street, between Pennsylvania avenue and D street, ix well worth a visit from those disposed to study industrial progress around him. A multitude of female employees will be found there, engaged tn shirt meking in all ite varieties and stages, many of them operating sewing machines whose busy hum may not fnaptly be compared to that of a hive of bees when most industriously jnclined, Mr. Noyes has fnangurated quite a large business in our midst, furnishing employment for many hands and according a great accommodation to bachelors especially, who are not blessed with wives to prepare their undergarments.

Jonn’s Pantin Sexcot—The correspond ent, who sends us the following, has our thanks for supplying our deficiencies; but, to his com- plaint about our omission, we have only to say that probably we knew nothing of the matter, Did the managers send us any invitation or no- tice that the festival was to occur? If so, it has not been received. His report, however, is @ very good one, and nota whit too late to do good. Here it is : Mr. Editor: As your columns bave of late teemed with notices of school examinations, &¢., numbers of us, in this town, have looked for some slight notice of the May Festival celebrated in the Parish School of St. John’s Church. We have been disappointed, however, although I cannot imagine why, for the occasion certainly deserved a lengthy description; and, if you lease, I will endeavor to give you an account of tnow. There were assembled on this occasion about sixty children, many of whom were the offspring of poor parents, who, but for this school, would probably have been abandoned a deleterious influence that would have alway prevented their occupying high positions in so- cial life. These found themselves objects of solicitude with those they bad previously began to regard with animosity; and since their introduction into this school, they have been encouraged with kind words; and many incentives are applied to urge them forward in the path of learning, and enable thean to overcome unfortunate early prejudices. ‘They were all neatly dressed in white, their brows being encircled by wreaths of natural flowers, and their innocent faces lighted up with smiles of delight. Indeed, it was a lively scene, and nowise inferior to similar exbibitions in other schools. The recitations were given with much spirit, and all were quite perfect in their rts Perhe May Qveen was crowned with all due honors, and eg fey ae verses addressed to her by one of the larger girls. They sang several tunes, their voices blending harmoniously, giving proof of the care and attention that bas been de- voted to their training. After the exercises, the pleased and eager throng grouped around tables and partook heartily of the good things thereon. Allow me, in conclusion, to say that this noble charity (the Parish School of St. John’s, George- town) was establixbed about eight years azo, under the afspices of the present Rev. N.P. Til- linghast, and has been ea tee by St. John’s congregation ever since. ay it long continue to send forth its streams of usefulness and happi- ness. OpsERVER. Georgetown, D.C. CriminaL Court.—Trial of Henry Williams and Charles Barrett, for the murder of Reeve Lewis.—To-day, the court room was filled with spectators outside the bar. At 20 minutes to IL o’clock the prisoners were conducted into court and placed in the criminal’s box, and ariaigned by the clerk. Messrs. Cross and Ould appeared on the part of the Government, and Messrs. Chil- ton and Maury for the defence. At quarter to | o’clock the jury was called, as follows: James F. Scott, disqualitied by reason of pre- vionsly-expressed opinions. Alex. M. Smith, sworn, Christopher Cammack, disqualified on account of previous opinions. Samuel Lewis, also disqualified. James Cretcheit, challenged. %.P. Gilman, d’squalitied. Edwin Green, chatlenged. Joseph W. Nairn, chailenged. John W. Martin, disqualitied. Francis Mohon. disqualified. Jobn T.

The Grand Jury here came in and announced that they had transacted all the business before them, and were accordingly finally discharged with the thanks of the Court, etc. Suxpay —The extreme heat and the clouds of dust, which at times fairly blinded the incautious pedestrian who dared to face them, prevented many of our citizens from taking their usual Sab- bath day’s journeys for the pleasure of the yontb- ful members of their families. These were causes also of the slim congregations at many of the churches in the city. But while our quiet citizens were deprived of some of their enjoy- ments, the same causes operated favorably in other respects. The city was quiet, less of the disorderly consequences of intemperate drinking than usual. The usual disturbers of the peace confined themselves to their homes or their an- burban rendervous until after night, and were seen by but few. Altogether the day Was ax quiet as any Sabbath in the past two months. Fiies.—This Summer, the dwellings, stores, offices, and housex generally throughout this city, are more troubled with flies than for many years past. The grocers are much troubled by them, giving the employees in the stores extra labor to keep their gocds clear of them. House- keepers, too, are kept constantly at work to pre- vent their dwellings being overrun by the pests The only inquiry ix, How to get rid of them? Fly brushes, traps, &c., seem to have but little effect. A lady at the fireworks, on the evening of the Sth, compared the brilliant showers trem the exploded shells to immense fly brushes. No doubt our merchants and housekeepers would willingly endure a short bombardment of the city with suck shells, if by that means they could get rid of the pest. AS Act ov THE StH INST —A colored mar, named Wm. Wilson, residing iu the First Ward, gotintoa conflict on the night of the Sth inst.. with two other colored men, named Sam. Wel ster and Wm. Cook, and was dreadfully cut about the head, throat and bedy by them.” One of the wounds, by a very slight turn of the wea- pon, would have proved fatal tu a very short time by severing the carotid artery Wilson is now doing very well, and if no misfortune oc- curs will probably recover. The offenders have not as yet been arrested. They are both slaves ; the wounded man is free. Loexy.—Upon the arrival of the Seventh Regi- ment of the National Guards in Philadelphia, two of them telegraphed to Marshal Brown, Esq , that, in their haste to get off in time forthe train of cars to convey them home, one left a valuable gold watch and chain, the other a pocket book containing about $170 in the rooms they occupied. The rooms were examined and the Property found as they bad left it. It awaits their orders. A Granp Excursion and Pie Nic on Monday, the 26th inst., is being arranged for by Central, Washington and Columbia Lodges, 1. 0. 0. F. Of course it will be a splendid affair, as the com- mittees having the matter ln charge have here- tofore fully satisfied the public of their ability to suecessfully cuter for the comfort and pleasure of the host of friends usually accompanying them in their jaunts from the heat and dust of the chty. ‘Tue Gas Mains. —The work of laying the large mains is still in rapid progress on K street north, and the pipes are laid from the Circle in the First Ward, nearly to Ninth street west.
