Upen the parties being taken before Justice Donn for examination, the wit- nesses were heard for the Government, and con- firmed the statements formerly made by them, as already given in the Star.

The officer—Keese— testified that the amount found on Strobel was 77. A watch and several articies of smail were also found upon him John Lanfret, a workman in the employ of Freidenberg, iden- titted the watch and a fob chain as his property. ‘The money and watch and chain were missed by the owners Saturday afternoon and night.

The of the young were highly enjoyed by many of riper years who were present; and the vocal performances of the excellent choir, assisted by‘eeveral talented amateurs of this city and Georgetown, added greatly to the pleasure of the company.

A Quzstion Decipsp —On Tuesday, a case in- volving the relative rights of oases end con- tractors connected with buildings came up before Justice J. H.

Pouics Matrens—Before Justice Barnétlo — Mrs. Kate Feeny, Mrs. Margaret Clancy and Mrs Catharine Griffin reside id a locality known to the ice as ‘Hog alley”’—a romantic: neighborhood n the rear of Shreeve’s stable. Yesterday, aques- tion arose between these three females, which no discussion was uate to settle eati: ly to all parties. Infact, tbe more vigorous the argu- ment (conducted altogether in the irish language) the farther the three seemed to be from an ami- cable a@justment; so the worst finaliv came to the Worst, and the question, which, so far as it could ‘bé understood, involved the ownersb i piece of tin water spout, took the form of a mill,” in which not only the three above mentioned were cipators, but some fifty or sixty others, inhabitants of the same locality, were drawn into the affair, either as makers. umpires, or belligerents. In the fight, several unfortunate women sustained severe capillary dan:ag nd in the midst of the hubbub a poli it poe the riotous females, and having captured the three above named, bore them off in ‘triumph to the office of Justice Barnaclo.

Heavy Storm—Rai_roap InzurED—FLoop.— A terrible storm took place in the neighborhood of Warrenton Jnnction, between 5 and 9 o'clock on Tuesday night last. The thunder and light- ning werequite severe, and for the space of an hour the rain poured in torrents—“‘the drops being so big,’ says an eye witness, “that men had to dodge them to keep from being drowned.” Though the size of the drops is undoubtedly ex- aggerated, the rain was exceedingly" heavy and delaged for awhile the region lyin: tween Beal- ton and Warrenton Junction. The Orange and Alexandria Railroad track was badly washed in many. places. The up-night train was compelled to stop at several points on the road, until the road bed could be placed in order, and the track tem- porarily arranged s@ as to admit a safe passage over. Licking Run, which is usuatly a small stream, at 11 o’clock had swollen to foaming torrent rushing under the railroad bri 130 feet wide, with tremendous force, and tlood ng all the jJow landsadjacent. ‘The crops in the line of the storm were much damaged, and we shall, doubt- oon bear estimates of great losses. A Worp For tue Birps —Mr. Editor—Dear Sir: Are we to be cheere\no more by the sweet notes of the dear little birds that generally fre- quent the Capitol grounds at this season on account of the bad and thoughtless boys who are allowed to throw stones and chase them for hours together without any one to say a word in their favor or forbid this cruel treatment? This morning, I saw five boys, between the ages of seven and twelve years, chasing the birds for more than an hour, which sport would have been continued much lopger, no doubt, bad the game remained eager to give encouragement to it. Now, I think that you, and many readers of the Star, will agree with me in saying this is not as it should be, and anything that so many will agree is wrong we should use our efforts to put right. Begging your assistance and indulgence, I remain, yours truly, Sunscaipes. Passinc Counrerreit Money IN ALEXANDRIA.
