He dittered With the District Attoruey as to who the perpe- tr =were. He charged the young man Swyper Johnson, the principal witness for the prosecu- tion, with the mu:der of Stoops. All the circurm- stances of the case, be contended, went to show him in that light, and on him the Prosecution depended to fix the infernal crime, which he had committed. upon the two prisoners at the bar. The prosecution then called— Dr. Duromel, sworn.— Examined the body of the deceased man, Stoops, en the night he was shot; was called up by an officer to go and dress the wound of a man who bad been shot; went to the spot and saw the young man lying bleeding. netierd the wound, and found it was necessarily fatal; found no pulse; held his ear over the heart. but it had ceased to pulsate: the ball had paced throngh the aorta, or great blood vessel leading to the heart; the wound was on the right breast, between the second and third ribs; the wound cansed the young man’s death undoubtedly.

Exttsition.—Yeterday after- noon, the weather being very unfavorable, and showers of frequent occurrence, the exhibition of tbe poblic schools of the Fourth District (Istand) Was not so attrective 28 would otherwise have been the case. Very many of the scholars did not ee in the ceremonies. Yet, notwith- standing ¢ unfortunate circumstances, the affair was highly creditable to the teachers and scholars of the several schools; for those whe did participate evinced a truly praisworthy devotion to the schools band represented. The several primary schools met at their re spective honses, and marched to the district school house on Sixth street, near Virginia ave- nue. There they were joined by the scholars of that school, and formed into a procession in the following order, viz: Fourth District School, male department, John E. Thompson, Teacher; female department, Margaret A. Milbarn, Teacher; primary No. 1, senior department, Annie M. Adams, Teacher ; junior department, Mrs. M. E. Martin, Teacher; primary No. 2, Mary A. Lee, Teacher; primary No. 3, Mra. M.A. Skidmore, Teacher ; primary No. 4, Emma L. Reed, Teacher ; male primary, Mr. A. Edson, Teacher. The procession moved up Sixth street to D, along D te Teath, and up Teath to the Simith- sonian, where they entered and proceeded to the lecture-room. A band of music (Prosperi’x) was to bave accompanied the procession, but, because it had proved so rainy, they supposed the cere- mony would be postponed, end did not come, or even send to ascertain if their ices were required. They were sent after, however, and arrived in time to discourse some flue music to the audience after it had assembled in the lecture- room. The exercises at the Smithsonian were as foliows : Chant—T will lift up mine eyes to the bills,” by the female department of the fourth district school. The annual address was then delivered by the Rev. C. H. Hill, and was a gem of the occasion. ‘The language was plain and easily understood, the illustrations practical, and the burthen of the address most happily apposite. He first pre- sented to the scholars clearly and forcibly the reason why their education is an object of so much solicitude with their parents, friends, and the community generally, that these stop not at trouble or expense to provide for it. The motive to give them oppottunities to acquire knowledge does not arise frem any good that is to enure to their parents, to the community, or to themselves, from their session ef that particular knowl- edge. For instance, it is not to be expected that aay benefit will arise from these boys and girls knowing the locality of any strait, island, or other Place designated in geography. The intention of all this is to awaken thought to lead them toa proper exercise of those mental faculties with which they are gifted by their Creator, and enable them to occupy places of usefulness in the world in mature life. je urged vpn their attention the necessity of developing their minds in early life, thax forming intelieciual habits, instead of such ax tend to degrade and ruin those who contract them After giving a great deal more good advice to the children, Mr. Hail reminded the parents that they had also to perform. **Kuowledge is power,”? he adm’ ut power in the hands of bad men is not c: lated to benefit the world. The children shoutd also be taught their moral ard religious obligations, and these it is the parents duty toteach They cannot divest them- selves of the performance of this duty neither, nor delegate it to anybody else. This theme was dwelt upon at considerable length, aud very earnestly The scholars of Primary School No. | sang a beautiful song, and acquitted themselves very handsomely Geo J. Abbott, Exq.,a firm friend of public education, and formerly, we believe, connected with eur public schools, wax then introduced. He ask d to be excused from making a speec! but before resuming his seat delivered just suc an barangue as the occasion required. Tt was au earnest, readily understood, aud appr priate ap- peal to the scholars to make good use of their present epportunities for acquiring good educa- tions. He introduced several fitting anecdotes, which, together with the other portions of his Temarks, were well received. The scholars of Primary School No. 2 then treated the auditors with a song, very well sung. The following recitations were then delivered by those scholars of the District School ee ‘Thempson’s) whose names are annexed. All of them performed so well that to decide which ex- celled would be a very ditticult matter: ‘Tubal Cain. by P. W. Pearson. Duties of American Citizens, by John W. Clute American Flag, by Samuel Polkinhorn. Kitten Gossip, by James E. Ager. Importance of the Union, by Samuel A. Amery. ‘The premiums (according to the list published in the Star yesterday) were then distributed to the scholars by J.G Berret, Esq » Mayor, who After all the premiums were presented to the scholars, Mayor Berret, on behalf of the scholars of the Female Department of the Fourth District School, presented the teacher thereof (Miss M A. Milburn) witb a handsome work-bvox P_esent was received by Col Randolph, on behalf «f Miss M , who replied to the very happy im- Prompta speech of the Mayor, in one equally suited to the occasion. Mr. Abbott, in behalf of the teacher of the District school, male department, (Wr. Thomp- son.) presented nuel A. Amery with a book asx an award for having, according to Mr. A.‘ de- cision, excelled in the delivery of recitations mentioned above.
