= LOCAL _INTELLIGEN A Naw Ractmment—Quite a large number (some 200) of citizens met at the Armory of the Washington Light Infantry. to discuss the pro- priety of inaugerating a new and independent military organigation for the District of Colum- bia Those present consisted of a good sprink- ling of the members of the District Volunteers, sot @ large number of autsiders, who have not e« yetasplred to the bigh position of membership wth tha, warlike, jovial, and enthusiastic corps The meeting was cailed to order by Captain Doris, of the Light lafantry. V. Eo King was «alled to preside, and L. DP. Williams was ap- pointed secretary Capt. Davis then stated, primarily, that there had been a misconception ou the part of the sec- retary who bad called the meeting. The mem- bers of the Infantry bad, for some time, been discussing the idea among themselves of an in- pendent regiment of Infantry. At the last mpany meetiug a cotumittes bad been ap- pointed to canvass the city, so far 2s they could, in the interim, and see how many names they could obtain among them as subscribers te the Proposed regiment, who were to report progress at the next adjou dmeeting. It bad been the Intention, in case the committee met with favor- able encouragement, to bave then called a gene- tal meeting at sonw ntral location, in order to discuss the 1 where all coald have a voice, and express and interchange views. As, however, thix meeting bad been called, and there Was a pretty general attendance, be would Ike to hear the views of auy persons present ax te the fosmation aregiment of ten utry—to con smpanies, uniformed al ozen'7el on the plan of the Seventh Regiment ef New York, and no officers of whom should 1 chosen nutil the regiment was formed uniformed. ‘Then let them choose from a their own men the officers who should command them in that way they would be sure not only to have ofticers who would be interested in its success, but would prevent that bane to military ardor wherevgr ic exists—the joining of the regiment by any man for the purpose of being an officer in it ‘That very spirit was one of the secrets of the Dresent disunited condition of the military of this District; end nothing could prevent it from ruin- ing every movement at giilitary enterprise, wher- ever it showed itself, Captain D wished to hear the views of these present on the subject, and Propesed to consider this a preliminary meeting, pad suggested the appointment of a committee of *Lree persons from those present, whose duty it should be to draft such committees of three from each Ward In the city, to canvass the city with lists, with a view to ascertaining what numberof subscribers they could obtain who would pledge themselves to join in this movement, and become members of anew Regiment of Infantry. He had ne doubt but that it was the wish of every citizen ef Washington that the District sb -uld raise a regiment whi 2 would vie in time with the tine Seveoth New York Regiment, woich all persons had seen and admired dusing thel, late visit to the Metropolis. That thts could be brought about, there was no doubt. The Chair stated the proposition of the appeint- ment ef a committee to the meeting; which was seconded and carried. Tue Chair appointed Messrs James Y. Davis, James Fletcher, and T. J. Galt; who were ac- cepted After consultation, the committee reported the followius committees for the several wards First Ward—James Kelly, Jobn E. Turton, S. S Parker; Second Ward Thomas I Fisher, Wa. E Spalding, 8. E Owens; Third Ward— VE King, Dr W. B. Butt, Hiram Ritenie; Fourth Ward—Mojor P_ Bacon, J F. Coyle, T J ig: ala Ward—Joha Boblayer, George x nas Robinson; Sixth Ward—William O'Donnel! B Bryan, N Hilyard; Seventh War Thomas E Lioyd, Charles Bishop, E.S Allen The committees were approved by the meetin: Col Bacon, formerly a member of the Seventh New York regiment, who was present, was bere ied upon to make some remarks. Col. Bacon stated that, from 17 years of age to the Present me, bis mn t had been set upon the militia of the country as being the great stay and bulwark of the American Government. This fact was full deme ustrated oy the history of the late war with Mexico, where it was well known the volunteers bore Iuavely the brunt of battle. True military nen alweys spring from the people.

He contended that in all legal presum; tion the prisoners were not to be sup, to gnilty by the evidence of s0 base cowardly a creatare as the witness Carrico, and displayed considerable tact in his attacks upon the incon- sistency of the testimony given by bim, insinu- ating that he was in all likelihood a particeps crimanis with those who had made the attack on Lewis and Entwistle. In conclusion, be con- tended that there was room for a reasonable doubt of the guilt of the prisoners, and that they ~“ to be acquitted. 5 je was followed on the same side by Mr. Chil- ton, who weut through the whole evidence which had been adduced, on which re seater at considerable length ticularly on portions ot the testimony of the witness Carrico, which, he argued, were irreconcilable with consistency. When be concluded, the court adjourned FOURTH Dar. To-day, after the prisoners were brought into court and the jury called, Mr Ould begun his closing address to the jury on the part of the Gov by stating that a considerable portion ime had been taken up by the counsel on the other side in discussing the Pavlowe ey of jo criminal law — It was not his purpose to follow them in that line of argument. He should speak of the great Divine law—* thon shalt do no mur- der A portion of their time lad been devoted to tc Hing the jury of their duties as jurors. The. grand jury bad found In their investigation suili- vient ground upon which to find a true bill of murder against the Prisoners at the bar, and it only remained with the jury to try the fact whether they are yuilty or innocent. “It was not the purpose of the grand jury, nor of this court, to persecute any man. Much had been said, also, as to reasonable doubt All technicalities taken away from the case, the jury were bound by their oaths to believe that these parties are guilty. ‘There were no perplexing doubts to solve. The counsel bad stated that his (the speakers) epening bad been a vindictiveone. He could lay his hand on his heart, and say his mind was free entirely from every vestige of vindictiveness or ill-feeling; God knew he harbored no ill-feel- ing toward the prisoners. The jury, in looking at this ry hada sa to look atall the enormi ties of the crime, and to follow them to their re- mote consequences. W hat was the proof in this case? Iese the speaker followed the two pris overs from their starting place to the scene of the assassination, and dwelt with great force upon each circumstance tnat occurred, up to the final act of cowardly desperation, whiuh resulted in the death of Lewis. How was this appalling weight of evidence to be impeached? By attack- ing the charicterof Carco © -lytwometh 8 weve resorted to, and both had proved im i- fectual. Their waves of attack were broken into ineffectual foam around the rock of evidence, which remained unshaken. Why did they nt attempt by bringing witnesses to oreak the char- acter of the witness Carrico? Because they cou'd not do it. His testimony is as unimpeachable asx that of the learned counsel on the other side would have been. He may be a coward, and hve consi zned himself to infamy by his failure to act; but he is at least honest. He has spoken the suth. Gentlemen on the other side complained of the greaing ef the prox cut'o —complaired of tneir cailing the prisoners crituinals—au calling it vindictive! They. in their argument to the Jury, assailed the witness Carrico, and even bad gone so far as to insinuate that he was an accom- Plice with these assassins. If the prisoners were. under such circumstances, to have the protection ef the Court, so also was the witness At the time of this transaction. the city was full of terror, by reason of the disorderly ant mud rous gangs which then inf-sted it. Lo the Jury not believe that bad the witness, Varrice, gone over the street at the time Reve Lewis was shot, and fell to the pavement, that his iife would have been also sacrificed by these prisoners? His fear was well founded. He valued his life, which was also valuable to his wife and littleones. His conduct in coneealing the matter was obviously proper under the peculiar circumstances. His anxiety to have both the prisoners arrested, was manifest. He accordingly, knowing that if Wil- liams was arrested before Barrett, that fact would necessarily involve the flight of Barrett, waited until hecould bave them both in the city at once, and then gave the information which led to their arrest As to Carrico’s identification of the prisoners, there could have been no difficulty in that. The cire ances under which he saw them was suificient to be entirely sure as to their identifica- tion. He saw Barrett first at Beveridge’s ceilar. Again, soon after, he met Barrett and Williams walking together. He saw them, face to face. at the corner of First street, and followed them from thence—no one intervening—for several squares, never letting them go out of sight, and iu the fall ylare of the street lamps, up to the very spot where he saw them commit the deed. ‘Phe counsel bad dwelt with great st-ess upon the fact that Carrico was a coward. They must yet some intervening proposition with which tocou- nect bis cowardice, or it was a non sequiter—a sort of logical Adame; if it had a relative it had no antecedent They spoke of cowardice. Wherecould there ud at iman, where walked, or crept a man so aid asthe man Barrett? Why did not ve the information as to what he saw on that Saturday might? Because the next Mon- day morning pers stated that Mr. Carrico fonnd Messis vistic and Lewis at the north east corner of the Capitol grounds. What was the inference on the part of the prisoner? ‘That Carrice had followed their guilty steps up to the y erand possessed of the fa What was ve, and Why did be not communicate the information’ It was be-aus he did not want to be a dead mean on Tuesd That is why he did notdo it. Ax to the discre- Pauces between the evidence of Entwistle and Car » that did not teud in the least to lessen the hed to Carrico’sevidence. For while ever: hess called to the stand on the part of the prosecution corroberated the evidence of Carrico as to the discrepancy between them inthe time of the occurrence, not one of them agreed with Mr. Entwistle as to that point, and the only inferenceSwas that Carrico was right, and Ent- wistle mistaken. ‘The chain of proof was complete; there was nocontiict. If the prisoners had been any where vise than there on that night, why could they not have proven the fact to the jury? They are found on the Avenue at a late hour; they are followed up to the fatal corner, and seen to do the infa- mous deed. Is it probable that two persons cowid b= placed for one hour and a haif at any time of the day or night in a position where they could not bave shown that they were bent upon some honest motive, had such been the case? It would be possible with one man alone, who might find bimself in circumstances where it would be impossible to have cleared himself, but it would be impossible with two men together ‘They must have had the means to explain their whereabouts, bad they been any where else than Where they are proved to have been After leaving this branch of the argument, Mr. Oald stated, in behalf of the Prisoner Williams, that there was no evidence to show that he fired a pistol at Lewis, who was killed; but if the jury believed that he was there, aiding and abetting Barrett in bis acts, Le was yuiltyof murder. He was proved to have been there; to have scrutt- nized the parties narrowly, as they passed by; to have stopped with Barrett, when be stopped; to have thrown a stone at, and afterwards shot, En- twiste. Ifthe jury believed he wes there and not acting in coucert with Barrett, in any respect, then Se was innocent. Iu closing, Mr. Quid cold the jury that he was through his duty, aud that theirs now begun He cautioned them to thrust forth from their minds every vestige of prejudice or outside feel- ing, if any was there, and to discharge their duty as faithful and true men. ‘The case was then yiven to the jury, twelve o'clock, m., and they retired. it being A Sreciat.

Editor of the Star: The getter-up of the paragraph in last even- ing’s Star, headed ‘‘ The Antiquity of Ladies’ Hoops,”’ is barking up the wrong tree.’? In his zeal against the ** jnstitution,’’ he has sought to turn against it the batteries of Scripture, but has overshot the mark. The pasxage cited by him from Isaiah il. 18: ‘In that day the Lord willtake away * * * * their rownd tires like the moon,” which, be says, proves that hoops were an abomination in the sight of the Lord, have nothing more to do with cope than with the man in the moon, or the Mormon religion, or Billy Bowlegs. The tire, as applied to wagons, is indeed a circumference about the feliows, and this is probably the idea that misled our com- mentator; but women are not wagons; and they wore the ‘tire’’ about the head, as he will be satisfied after examining Scripture a little fur- ther. For instance, that charm ng, gentle crea- tof Jehu, “paint- id looked ont at ber window :”’ 2 Kings ix 30; and, again, Eze- kiel xxiv. 23: ‘ Your tires shall be upon your heads, and your xboes upon er feet.’ &c. Jobnson’s Dictionary would have told him that a tire—(besides the iron for a wheel, &c )—siyni- fied a Aead-dr+ ss, being acorruption or anglici-m fom tiara, “The glorions institution” which spreads.and spreads, and never stops spreading — (Esto Perpetwa!)—is also unmistakable defined. * Hoop—the whalebone with which womea extend their petticoats—a farthingale;”? Fur- thingale—“cireles of whalebone used to xpread the petticoat to a wide clreumfreuce—a hoop.’* ‘That ix, a hoop isa farthingale, anda farthingale is a hoop; and it is commonly made of whalebone; though not always, it seems, for | hear that some of the western girls have made shift without whalebone, by using grape rines, and the grape crop ix materfally shortened in consequence. If this raises the prlee of drinks, the old topers may well join me in saying, vire hoops '—* let her rip!” J.W.H. P.S. [forgot tosay that I think the Good Book is silent on the hoop question. Addison, Swift, Steele, &c., are not; but they satirized the article in vain—the cycles of fashion make areas it. 5 HEALTH oF THE City.—The report of deaths in the city of Washington for the month of Juve 1s as follows: Accident.
