Cuance or Rarz.—Yesterday, the case of the United States agaiast Charles Kapp, charged with committing a rape upon Juliana Dilman,wastaken up for trial before Justice Walter—Mr. Morgan appearing for the defense. The warrant upon which Captain Kapp was arrested by Patrolman Frazier was issued by Justice Walter on the 15th instant, vpon the following affidavit: City of Philadelphia, s s.:—Personaliyappeared before me, an alderman in and for said city, Julia Dilman, who, being duly sworn, deposes and says, that Chas. Kapp had carnal connection with her on the 2ist day of December, 1861, at the hotel of a Mr. Schonell, in the city of Washington, eight times or more. wLiaNa DILLMAN. Sworn and subscribed to before me, this 3d day of February, 1562 Cuas. F. Hevirricu?, Alderman. Mr. Uttermeble appeared for the prosecution. The complainant isa slender, light-complee- ted, yellow-baired, blue-eyed woman, apparen about 28 or 30 years of age, not remarkably hand- some, but and clean. The counsel baving arrived, the Justice called Juliana Diliman, who was sworn and testified that she knowsCaptain Kapp. She was in this city In December last; came to see her husband on the Sth; left bim to return on the 16th; stayed all night om K street, between 4th and Sth, it being too late for the cars. Her busbant is Ser- geant Major in the 35th Pennsylvania regiment; Captain Kapp is captain in the same regiment, encamped at Hunter’s Chapel, Va When she went to the depot on the 17th to return home she ‘was too early; met Captain Kapp there, and he invited her to go tothe Turner Halland get some. thing toest. Sergeant Anspaugh was there and another soldier; Captain K. treated them; Capt. K. told Sergeant Anspaugh to get a carriage and bedid so. Witness thought they were going to the depot or another depot; but they carried her to Schneli’s hotel on Fifteenth street. Witness got into the carriage and Capt. K.rodea horse. He took a room, and witness did not want to go it, but thinking he was her husband’s friend she went in, and ~~ had something toest. After awhile sbe went down into the yard and be went down also; the dishes were removed. She had a young child ebout two and a half years old with her, !t being sleepy she put it to bed In the room, there being two beds there. After a while the Captain undressed to go to bed, and made her go to bed with him. Heteok hold of her, end began to abuse her. She begged bim for God’ssake to let her alone, as sLe was five months in the fam- ly way, and her child would die He abused her so thatthe next day she suffered with violent pains in her stomach. The next day, the 18th, he was afraid ber husband would hear of it, and he gota hack and told her to go to Baltimore to a hotel, and stay till became. She went directly home to Philadelphia, and wrote immediately te — husband, informing him of what had oc- curred. Cross-examined by Mr. Morgan —Kapp accom- lished bis purpose without her will and consent. le coaxed her from the depot, and she drank a glass of lager beer at Turner Hall, in the bar- room. There aretwo beds in the room at Schnell’s. She was in the act of undressing to goto bed with her child, when es 4 seized her. She resisted, but he accomplished his purpose rightaway. He had connection with her eight times; the second time about half an hour from the first. She then went to sleep; hewokeherup. She resisted ev time—tbe last time awhile before they got tip, j at daylight. She attempted to get up; did up twice. Didn’t go out of the room; ne made her 0 back. To Justice Walter —The door was locked; the key was in the door. The child awoke, and she went toit. She tried to get in the other bed, but Kapp would not let her. To Mr. Morgan.—The sffair did not occur on the 2ist, as the aff thes it; that wasa mistake of the Alderman. Never knew Kipp before my vi: to her husband. Took breakfast with Capt. Ka) the next morning at Schnell’s, down stairs. Ste made no complaint to anybody there. There no door communicating with other rooms from the room they occupled—it is No 8. He wanted ber to pess for hie wife. She didn’t speak to any one in the house—didn’t know any one. She knows it was the 17th, because on the 16th they were on the a AE and the 16th she went to Philadelphia. jhe undressed before him be- cause she bad no thought that he intended her any harm; believed him a friend of her husbend. Knew he was a married man, and she a married ‘woman, and the lights were put out. Major Hamm and severai officers being present, and anxious to return to camp, they were '~ mitted to testify before the mination of Mrs. Dillman was concl: It amounted simply to proof that on the 2ist — Kapp was on picket duty, and the 17th er 15th he was away from camp from nine or ten o’clock a. m., which was corsented to by the prosecution. Mr. Uttermuble. ir the Government, claimed that he had exhibited a prima facie case, and asked that it be sent for trial to the Criminal Court. He characterized the perpetrator of the act as a brute rather than an officer and gentle- man Mr. Morg»n, for defense, argued to show from tne testimony that there was no rape, and read from a charge of Judge Brownson, of New York, in © similar case, to substantiate the position he assumed. Justice Walter did not consider that other evidence for the defense would be necessary, reserved his decision until five o’clock p. m. AtSp. m. the parties appeared before Justice er, and he announ bis decision to dis- the case for the following reasons: Ist, on st of December the parties were not at ‘bnell’s hotel. 2d, the woman went willingly to the hotel. 34,Sbe undressed herself in the presence ef Kapp. 4th, she did not resist, as she made noalarm, which she could hare done easi- ly the key was in the deor and not locked he dfd not complain after she came she took breakfast with Kapp accepted a carriage to go to the depot, at the expense of the Captain. 9th, she delayed the complaint until the 34 of Febru- ary, 1662 10th. po ber letter to her husband, nor the affidavit corresponds with ber testimony lith, by her own testimony, that she did not sleep any all night, and made no effort to escape while be was asleep. — husband takes It with phlegmatic philose- 7. Littts Wittig Lincotn —It will be a source of gratification to friends of the President to Jearn that the remains of the little favorite of the 'W bite House have been embalmed be har Brown and Alexander, assisted by Dr. Charles A. Wood; and in presence of the went A physicians, Drs. ne, Senator Browning, Isaac Newton, Esq ,2od others. The embalmment was a complete success, and gave great satisfaction toall pres-nt. The body will be deposited in a vault on next a a os poeay to = nols,to be deposited in the family burying grou: of the President. Yesterday wo members of the Cabi- net with their families called on the resident and Mrs. Lincoln, to tender their condolence. No others were admitted to the Presidential man- sion. The foreign Ministers, Senators, and other leading citizens sent cards and letters of cendo- lence. Senator Browniag has entire charge of the funeral arrangements. ApiovanzD Mestine oy ResTavratevrs.— An adjourned meeting of Hotel and Restaurant keepers was held at Franklin Hall, corner D and th streeets, afternoon, Mr. Herman ites =a the that they had an interview with his Honor, who informed them that Judge Keyes had ised i Marshal Lamon has, we beeen hg cp ope Mr. M: county jail ta place of ae H. Wise, oa Not THs Max.—We are informed by Justice Baraacio that it Moran and not James Morsn who was fined for oa teogen evidence the ju case of Wm. Nixon, the so! on Capitol Hill, Sunday night, might have upon his mind, invited Justice Giberson to sit with him in the hearing of the evidence, and the par- ties charged, James Marshall and Mary Marshall, appea: at Justice Johnson’s office for trial, r. Bradley, jr., appearing for the defence. The ‘witnesses were those examined at the inquest, together with the jurors, and some soldiers. The testimony differed in seme points trom that elic- ited before the inquest. Mrs Goodin testified substantially as before the inquest. She retired to bed about ten o'rlovk, leaving Mr. and Mrs Marshall down stairs. she was aroused in the night by the report of a gun or pistol, and smelled what she presumed was —— in the house immediately after. She new nothing of the killing until she was told of it next morning by Mrs. Marshall. Miss Mary Magee, danghter of Mrs. Marsball, said she went to before Mrs Goodin. She ‘was aroused in the night by a loud nolse—the re- port of agun she supposed. She did not smell powder, and denied having said so before the in- vest. She knew nothing of the homicide till e next morning. James Magee, (son of Mrs. Marshall, 13 years old.) sald be went to bed between seven and eight o’clock; was followed soon after by his younger brother. They were aroused by the re- port of a gun or pistol, and by bis mother coming up out of the cellar pore 3 Mrs. Goodin. He smelled powder, bvt could not say if the guo ‘was fired in or out of the house. The next witnesses (there were eighteen in all) testified sap rare | to the following facts: They found the body lying outside of Marshall’s premi- ses, near the street; they found a pool of blood under the window, in the yard, a blood stain on the shutter, a hand print, a ng Ce pane, and fresh powder on the inside sash. Surgeon A. C. Willams, 5th U 8 artillery, tes- tified that death must bave ensued instantly from the wound, and the body was probably d from the pool of blood inthe yard to the street outside. One of the inquest jurors—Mr. W. Readdy— when about to be qualified, refused to be sworn according to law, saying that it was contrary to his religious belief, and cited Matthew, 5th chap- ter, verses 33 to 37, in justification. He wou! not use the name of God, nor swear by the uplifted hand Mr. Bradley, jr., for defence, objected, on the ground that he was an unbeliever. The Justice asked Readdy if he believed the Scriptures, and the doctrine of future rewards and punishment. He said he did. He wes declared competent, and proceeded with his evidence, substantiating enerally the statements cf the other witnesses. The character of Marsball was shown to be excel- lent. The deceased had the character of being intemperate and quarrelsome. The certificate of marriage of Marsball and Mrs. Magee was pro- duced, it being given under her maiden name of Mary McCarty, Her business bas been conducted under the name of Magee, simply because estab- lished in that name. The case was fully dismissed by Justices John- son and Giberson, who couid discover nothing in the evidence to justify a commitment of either of the parties for trial at court.

Quartermaster General Meigs was present A repert from the committee to confer with the Government authorities was then submitted. and it was unanimously adopted by the convention.

It is noticeable that the observances in bonor of the natal day of Washington, 2 day which it seems was to have been equally honored in the capital of the loyal and the rebellious States, should in both cities be clouded by calamity. — While loyal citizens here rejoice in the successes which bave attended the Federal arms both tn the East and West, they recognized with sub- mission the chastening hand of Providence, which has brought effliction in the family of our chief magistrate In Richmond, the inaugura- tion of the ruler they have set up, will necessari- ly be of a gloomy character, for those who com- menced, aud have carried on the unholy war against the Government must, in the reverses which they have recent! sustained, see “+ the be- ginning of the end.” The day was ushered in bere by the ringing of bells, and the firing of salutes from the navy yard and arsenal, and the guns in the fortifications about Washington ec ani re-echoed the booming throughout the day. The national fing was displayed from ail the public buildings end most of the private residences in and nbout Washington. The filumination, which would have been a general one throughout the District’ if it had not been for the Jeath in the President’s family, will be only partial. This is in conse- quence of the action of the authorities in suspend. ing the order of an illumination of the public buildin: A great many bad perfected their arrangements before the order was iseued,: nd these will probably illuminate.

JEFF PAVIS HUNG IN EFFIGY In the grey of the morning pedestrians were horrified by ine sppciasaoe of a body, evidently lifeless, suspended by the neck from 8 pole out of the second story of the building corner of Tenth streetand Louisiana avenue.

By walf past ‘clock, Pennsylvania avenue and the streets leading to {t were throaged with parties of ladies and yentlemen oa their way to the Capitol to witne=s the ceremonies in the House of Representati vee. At noon the bells were agein rung, and salutes fired. EXERCISES AT THE CAPITOL. Atan early hour this morning, 2 c-cseless tide of humanity began to stream up the avenue and through the grounds surrounding the Capitol, beseizing the entrances, ard patiently lingering around the porticos in the vain bope thet some- thing migbt “tarn up” by which they could effect an entr. to Hali of Reps tives, where the interesting exercises arranged for the day were to take place Asthe hours wore awry, and the courtecus but firm janitors proved inflexible, intezral parts of the thrung dropped of, an i se nter current down from the Capltol, whi apidly filled up with new comers. 3 to the Cap- itol were closed save the north and east doors of the north wing ard the ea nd west doors of the south win: Officers were stationed con iguous to each other throughout the densely crowded p2ssages, and upon the stairea: to preserve decorum and point out the respective portions of the galleries assigned to families of Senatocs, members, and invited guests, di atte corys. ladies, and gen- tlemen. Alls aches to the floor of the House were closed save the private staircase of the mem- bers. ‘The galleries were crowded beyond com- fort, aud no iittle amusement was occasioned by the protestations of the occuyac’s of the yentle- men’s gallery against the “pressure”? brought to bear by those in the aisles and doorways, one individual persistently shouting, “police, police, send upa policeman,” &c At the fight of the Speaker the heavy oaken chairs, with their green upholstery, formed an agreeable contrast to the light maple cane-seated chairs upon the left, and in addition to the flags over the Speaker’s desk, a beautiful banner was suspended from the reporters? gallery. At [2 o’clock the House was called to order by the Speaker, as usual. = Mr. Crittenden regarded the presentation of rebel flags as inappropiate, and moved that that portion of the orders of exercises be dispensed with. Mr. Lovejoy demanded the yeas and nays Mr. Dawes opposed the presentation, and ob- jected to magnifying the character of the flags by such a disposition of them. After considerable excited discussion, a resolu- tion carrying out the motion of Mr Grittenden wes adopted—yeas 70, nays 61. ‘The Clerk of the House wes directed by resolu- tion te inform the Senate that the House was ready to receive that body with the invited guests, for the purpose of participating in the anniversary exercisss, and at one o’clock the im- posing procession entered the Hal’. At the head, escorted by the Secretary of the Senate, walked Vice President Ham}in, followed by the Chaplata of the Senate, Rev. Dr. Sunder- land, Senators, Cabinet, Count de Paris and Duc de Chartres, Judges of the Supreme Court (with the exception of Chief Justice Taney), foreign ministers, officers of the army and navy, headed by aged General McCleilan, (in neat shoulder straps,) and invited guests. No sooner was the young Commander recog- nized than the galleries broke out into vociferous applause, the ladies forming well their part by the nimble use of their hands. Among the iavited guests upon the floor were Mayor Wallach, N. P. Willis (accompanied by Geo. Boker the poet), Rev. Dr. Channing, Leutze the artist, Bigelow Lawrence, Henry C. Carey, and otber notabilities. The judges of the Supreme Court, officers of the army end cet foreign ministers and invited guests occupied the seats at the right of the speak- er’s desk, and the Representatives, with a num- ber of ladies, the seats upon the left The Cabi- net and Senators occupied the three front rows of seats, with the Vice Presideat at the left of the speaker's chair. A most impressive prayer was then offered by the ye of tite House of Representatives, Rev. T. H. Stockton, and the farewell address of Gen. Washington read by the Secretary of the Senate, Mr. Forney.
