Lavrgt, Mp., Dec. 5.—The Laurel republi- can association this evening celebrated, at the Academy of Music, the result of the presi- dential election, A letter was read from Hon, Sydney E, Mudd, the republican candidate for Congress. Mr, Mudd’s letter contained the following statement: “An effort has becn and is being made to rob me of the seat and a majority of the voters of the district of the ‘epresentative to which we are entitled. That effort shall not succeed.” An address was deliv- ered by Gen. N. Dumont, of this city.

In the Criminal Court to-day a young col- ored man, Jno. Crusenberry, tried on the charge of housebreaking in the night, in enter- ing the house of Senator Stockbridge, 1440 M street, September 18, and stealing therefrom a coat, umbrella, and cane. The testimony of Officer Dyer was that on the morning of Sep+ tember 19 he was looking for Crusenberry, who was suspected of robbing Judge Upton’s and saw him with others. He pursued Crusen- berry, who had the coat in a basket, alsoan um- brelia. Crusenberry said it was a pity he couldn't go fishing without being molested. Fér the defendant it was testified by Isaac Snowden that Will Ford gave Crasenberry the goods, and he thanked Ford for them and took them home and was on his way to sell thei Crusenberry corroborated Snowden, He ai mitted that he had been to prison and had been out of jail but a few weeks.

The Post had no intention of becoming in such a way a pros- ecutor or the vehicle of anybody's malice.
