Mr. Boyd, from the Committee on Canals, made s report The repor: states that during the past two months the Committee have had freqaent ses- stons, at which various plans were presented and discussed. To lease the canal to a com- pany would be an admission that the Corpo- Fation is unable to make it a permanent im- provement. Toarch it would require no less than twoanda half millions. The Committee are of the opimion that the Corporation bas no power to pass a bill other than such a bill as Was introduced on the 6th instant. The Commitive ask the passage of the bill for. among others, the following reaso1 1.

KORRIBLE DOUBLE MORDER. A Man Kills his Wife and her Mother. He Uses a Hatchet A Kuife, and a Brick. This morning about 7 o'clock, a colored man named Albert Nicholas, killed his wife and ber | Mother in house No. 47 Mai venue, between | 3d and 43 street west. The house is a two story irame stractare, the lower part of which * | 18 occupied by a woman named Maggie | Allen, and the two upper rooms were occupied by the murderer and his victims. It appears that the parties were quarreting last.night and this morning, probably because Nicholas wa* @rnnk. About 7 o'clock this morning, the | quarreling and general disorder iacreased, and | Mrs. Mathews, a white woman, residing next door thinking that the police should intertere sent after Officer U. A. Owens, at bis house on | Maryland avenue, and to the station, $4 andG streets, when the disturbance was going on. | Officers Hit! and Owens reached the house | about the same time, and on entering found the prisoner with his pants bloody, as also the Side of the bed in the front room, under which the hatchet had been placed which had been | used in committing the crime. Officer Hill took hum to the station-house, where he was locked | up for a hesring. Officer Owens on going up stairs found the wile of the prisoner, Lucinda, lying on the bed. She was not tben dead, although umable to speak, She had eleven wounds on her head, her skull being horribly cut and battered, and brains and blood oozing from the wounds. Drs. J. R. Riley and Brookheimer were | Sentforand wereearly on the spot, but they could do nothing for Lucinda, who died about 9.45 o'clock. The wifes’ mother, Ellen Smith, was found lymg on the floor with blood flowing from Seven wounds on the head. Five wounds were on the frontot the head, one in the left | cheek and one on the right cheek, breaking the bone. The wound directly over the eyes was apparently made with the blade of a hatchet. © Was speechless when found and continund until her death, which occurred at fifteen minutes past 11 0 clock, Nicholas at first denied that he had struck his | wife or her taother, but subsequent!y admitted he did it, that they had had a little fight. so stated that the weapons he used were | a knite, hatchet and brick. Subsequently, at the station, ne said that he had done the deed because last night the mother had advised her daughter not to sleep ‘with him, becanse he was drunk; that he went to the room this morning, and the mother ore | dered him out, at the same time picking up a hatohet; that he seized the hatchet, wrested it from her, and knocked his wife down and then his mother-in-law, and beat her with the hatchet until he broke the handle, and then | used a brick; and that he did not use the kuite | at all. He appears to be very cool about the matter, and converses yery freely. From statements made by the neighbors, it appears that last night he threatened to kill bis wife, and that she was about to jamp out of the window, and that it was in consequence of these threats that the two women refused to allow him to stay in the same room with them. The affair created intense excitement in the neighborhood where it occurred, especially s among the colored people, and, as the news spread, a very large Lumber gathered about the bouee, all anxious to see the victims and to learn the particulars, and among these were several relatives of tne deceased. Nicholas and his | Victims were originally from North Carolina, | and have been lying in this city several years. The two women have borne excellent charac. ters since they have been here, and before, as far Hatton insisted that his motion was in order, ; 281s known. They were brought up as house seTvaats, and were well educated. Nicholas is a very large man, between 35 and 40, and bas been ‘regarded as @ quiet, inoffensive person until now. For several years he worked asa fireman at the United States Hotel, and since then has been in the employ of Mr.C. W. EME bricklayer, as a hod-carrier. Nicholas as married but about ten months, aod bis wife was confined about three weeks since, (the child being stillborn,) and yesterday was her first day ont. A small child, between four and five years of age, (tssue of the Wife by a former marriage,) was found ima barrel in the back shed, where it had run or had been hidden for safety. Sergeant S. B. Ulements states that be called on Dr. Joseph Waish, who was near by at the time, aud he retused to attend, but Drs. Brookhet and J. R. Riley came promptly when notified. It appears that the child above referred to as baving been found in the yard has been the cause ef quarreling in the family, Nich- Olas charging tuat it The coronor, Dr. Todd and Adams. (of the Navy,) a short time after the death of Ellen Smit! th Drs. Todd, Riley and Hartigan, proceeded to make a post Mortem examination of the bodies. The px lice sammoned the following jury of inquest: Ww. Hinlein, Cbaries H. Parker, James Ka- cord, John Corrigan, Joseph Mabrar, Simon Joseph, A. McDermott, J. P. Harmon, H. H. Lemon, Wm. Webster, Nicholas White and George O. Noyes: Dr. James Kacord as fore. man, and the jurors were sworn over the bodies; after whicb, they were discharged until 11 o'clock a. m. to-morrow. ‘Scme of the colored people were quite ex- cited about the mater, particularly some of the relatives, one of whom very excitedly asked if they were going to try sach a man, and said that he ought to be strung up the first thing, because this wae & double firet degree murder. ——— THE PoToMAc ERONT.—The steamer W.

The Charges Against Mayor Bowen. THE INVRSTIGATING COMMITTER—REPORTs As TO THE RVIDENOE BEFORE THEN. The special committee of the Uity Councils to which was referred the charges of Mr. J. H. Crane against Mayor Bowen is steadily pursu- ing its investigations. The committee deliber- ates with closed doors, but @ portion of the tes- timony, given om Tuesday evening, has leaked out it seems, and the following is said to be Purport of it: M of the work on of K street was placed in G and ist streets. He corroborated the statement of Mr. Crane with Teference to the quantity of dirt taken out of K street and put in said G and Ist streets. He testified tha: he had not been paid by Messrs. U'Beirne and Gleason, contractors for said Work, since the Ist of July Jast, and there is still Owing to him about $40. The first time he contractors paid their hands off, the pay~ ounted to about $1.71), and they re- dat that th bout $2,700 from the Mayor, out of which sam Mr. John B. Fr; received 3450, Witne: ce. Wit ness said he considered the work not done in & workmanlike manmer, as the contract re- depth of gravel being deficient, and that this matter was talked over with Mr. Gleason at tne lime the work was being done. The next witness was Mr. John F. Qook. City Register, who stated that for =6,000 of the amount paid sud contractors no vouchers appear in the Register’s office. That the law requires all moneys shall be rant, signed py the Mayor and countersigued by the Register. Witness did not know of $5,000 being paid to the contractors about the last of July, but if paid it was done without his signature and in Violation of law. Wm. 8. Huntington, casbier of the First National Bank, was next examined, who stated that on or about the 23d of July ne received an order from the Mayer for $3,000, on account of an estimate made by the City Surveyor, for 212,000 for work done on K and (; streets north and First street, said 33,4 to be deducted from. the first taxes paid in this year. Toe Mayor, io the above order, showed that $3,745 had pre- viously been paid on account of the above con- tract, and that the 3.000 was receipted for by Messrs. U’Beirne, Fry and Gleason, on the back of the estimate, The next witness was Charles H. Bliss, former Vity Surveyor, who testified that there ‘Was no surplus earth on K street at thetime | the work was measured; that the embiukment | and excavation nearly balanced each other. It is snid that he and Mr. Crane had a sharp con. | troversy in the presence of the commities. | Mr. Jonn B. Fry was next calied to the stand, who testified that he had an equal inter- est in the contract with Messrs.

Sterrett, who was charged with having presented and received payment on a forged check at the Treasury Department. purported to be signed by Major Brooks, pay- master United Siates army. He could not be identified, so he was about to be released, when it was concluded to hold him a while longer to investigate his connection with a case com- mencing in Chicago during last month and ending in this city. It appears that in the jatter part of last month in Chicago, Sterrett Advertised in the newspapers of that city for a governess or lady attendant, and a lady, whose name we omil, having answered and been accepted, came to this city at the request | of Sterrett, who had in the meanwhile |rriyed here. Being directed by his letter to repair to Willard’s Hotel, she did so, but found no such man as Sterrettthere. She was kindly taken care of by the family of one of the clerks of the hotel. About a week since this man Sterrett took rooms with a friend at the house ofa lady on 15th street, paying $75 per month in advance, and has been rooming there since with a young lady, to whom he states he was Tecently married. He has passed himself off 48 An “official reporter United States Senate,” and has been quite lavish in bis expenditur, no litte of which went tor wines and liqaors. —_———— A Steamer Rey IxTo.—Last night, about nine o'clock, while the steamer Arrow was lymg at her wharf, she was run into by the schooner Sophia Godfrey, ladem with coal for H.
