Ye@rday afternoon Justice Clayton, at the Ace headquarters, heard the case of Brevet Ficacer General W. G. Mank, First Army cTps. and Mary Jones, charged, on a war- mut issued by Superintendent Richards on 2¢ oath of David Jones, with living in adul- ?Tous intercourse with each other,” who had Pep arrested by Detectives McDevitt and Ular- oe on the preceding evening at the corner of The hearmg of the case at- cted quite anomber of spectators, mostly Tmans. conversant with the circumstances cf the affair. Ex-Governor Ford appeared for the prose- cution. The first witness sworn was the complainant, David Jones, who testified that the woman was his wife; (bat they were married on the 17th of February, i+63,and they had lived together for over two years. About 10 weeks ago witness gave & party atthe corner of South Carolina uvenne and Sh street, at which General (then Colonel) Mank was present, and subsequently Witness had his suspicions aroused, but did not Say anything toany one, but made up his mind to make sare before he did anything. After seven or eight days she frequently went out in the evening and did not return til late, and he as- certained she went out to the camp where Mank commanded. She said she went to see the ebancelior of the Swiss Consulate General, but be ascertained that she did not. Witness then moved to the corner of 10th street and the avenue, and the General used to come down and drink a good deal sometimes, spending ten, twenty or thirty dollars (hearing meanwhile of the doings of the General and » wife, but keeping bis thoughts to himself). On one oc- casion there was a ball, and he not being able to go early, and the general agreeing to take his lady over, he agreed to isk it, and they went over. witness getting there about 10% o'clock. When he entered the ball they appeared as if they did not wish to see him, and the General just said “Here's our Iedy.” Every time witness danced with ‘is wife she would say she didn’t teel like dan- cing, but she didn’t seem to tire when she was ‘with the General. The General and his wife kept together, conversing by themselves, and he said that it cid net look nfCe, and she said she wanted togo home. Witness said he would take her home, but told her to wait till he paid his bills, and then he drank a couple of glasses more. The General then came up excited, and said that he bad brought the lady to the ball, and would take her home, and witness said she was his wife, and he would go home with her. ‘They wentont, and witness saw the General pat her in a hack and go off. Witness thought they had gone to his house, and he went there, but they were notthere, and be went back to the ball. He ascertained afterwards that they were driven to East Capitol street, where they got out, and that the General told the driver not to say anything about where they went to, and gave him $5. ‘The General cross-examined the witness, eli- citing the following: Col. Gerhardt intro- duced the General to witness and his wife. ‘Witness did not induce the General to associ- ate with his wife in order to catch him and make money out of him; and did notat the ball say that she was a disreputable wo- man General Mank stated that the woman told bim that she was note wife of Jones, but that ber pame was Mary Beerman. " ga>.A. McDeviit (detective) testified that shout’, M weeks since Mr. Jones called on him in referemce to the case, and yesterday he called again: S#yimg he had information that the parties wait m the house of a Mr. Kaisser, at the corner of 8th and O streets, and he, with bis partner, Mrs {yr ""°. Drogeeded to the house in compsay W. b ae ser said the Geberal w.. ¢ house ‘with his wiie. After knocking at the door the General came out, and witness seryed the war- rant. Witness went in the room after the lady had dressed, and asked if she was not Mrs. Jones. She replied that she was not, when Mr. Claryoe produced a likeness of Jones’ wile, sud she said it was hers. He then served the warrant on her, and told them they could sppear at the office im the morning. There ‘was but one bed in the room, and they ap- peared to occupy but the one room. Tle prosecution bere rested the case@and Geual Mank made a statement to the follow- ing efect —Colonel Gerbardt invited bim to go totagerty at Jones’, and introduced him, and he danced with the lady. The following day a cayriage came to the ks, in which was Mr. Jones and two ladies, (one he didn’t know,) and he invited them to take a seat until dress parade was over. Jones said that his wife was & first-rate rider, and told him that he couid take ber out riding. Witness went to Jones afterwards to pay a dollar he owed, and while there the Isdy came in, when Jones suggested that they take a ride, and they did. She told bim that she was not married to Jones; that he areated her badly, and showed him a bruise on ber arm made by him. When they returned Jones told him he could sleep there if he chose, but be declined. The lady said Jones wanted to catch him and make a couple of thousand oat of him. Jones would always try and shove her up to witness, and he thought from his action= that what she said might betrue. Jones asked him to take ber toa ball, and he did so, and when Jones came in he gave her up to bim. Jones and the lady went off together, and Jones came back witbout her, saying that he bad left her where she ought to be. About twoo’clock in the morning, after witness wentto camp, she came toit, and said that Jones called be? &@ prostitute, and she couldn't stay with bim, and he persuaded her to return to Jones, and she went away. Jones subsequently called on him and invited him te a lunch at his place. Jones toid bim to take his wife to the ball, and they went, and enjoyed themselves talking freely and nicely together, and he danced with her. On the same evening another party danced With her, and said to Jones that he was obliged to him, when Jones replied that she did no belong to bim. Jones called her a prostitute, &c., and be did not act as gentleman, sv he (the General) said to him that if she was his wife he could take her, and she replied that she was not bis wife; so he took ber off and Teated a room for her. Jones did not act like . but as ac mon loafer. . Mank protested that he had rented the Toom for the Indy, but that there was nothing proved against him, and he was guilty of no crime. Mr. Jones here asked that a second warrant be iseved against General Mank, charging him With threats, and it was immediately made out and served by Mr. McDevitt, and General Mank expressing himee!f ready for trial on this charye, Jones testified that on Saturday last bis wife and Mrs. Bowman came to his house, and after calling for drinks, Mrs. Bowman eaid, “To-day is Christmas, here is ee wife, why don’t you make it up and take her back.” When they left they imvited him to come out. Witness went out, and while taking a drink, the Gereral came up and said he would kill him, sboot him, at the same time showing a sevoiver. The General asked if the witness did not pull off his ceat, and if he (Jones) did not threaten tim, which the witness demed. ry Bierman (the woman charged by Jones With adultery) testified that the General did hot touch his pistol. that he had none with him; that Jones pulled off bis coat as soon as the General appeared, and threatened him. Wit- bees’ name is Mary Bierman, but she has gone under the name of Jones. Justice Clayton said that the crime was hard to prove in this District, and for the purpose of getung an expression of opinion by the court, he would send the case to court, and the parties fave bail in the sum of $6u0. The complainant, Jones, is 2 German, some- thing over W ye of age, and formerly was in the wholesale and retail produce business at ‘he corner of sth and D streets.

Several of them left the city immediately on their release, and are now at Richmond, Warrenton, Wash- ington and other points. We learn that appli- cation has been made for a company of cavairy to assist in securing those in this immediate neighborhood.” Tue GvaRpIAN SocteTy—The Gnardian Society are erecting a the Govern- ment farm, near the Chain idge, this side of the reservoir. The materials for the building were presented by the Government, having been taken from Mount Pleasant Hospital. They will doubtless be finished and ready for occupation in a week or two. The Banks have recently been called upon to contribute for this purpose,and have responded liberally. The Society still needs aid, however, to accomplish their aims in other quarters. ————— ATTEMPT TO Ros THE Post OrFice.—At an early hour yesterday morning, one of the night clerks at the City Post Office heard a noise at one of the windows facing 8th street, and on looking out saw two men attempting to pry up the window with a heavy bar of iron, but be- ing unarmed he ran out and gave an alarm, when they decamped. It is supposed that their object was the Treasury safe in the room adjeining the one they attempted to get in. The bar of iron was lefi behind by the miscre- ants. ore OoITy ITEMS.
