inga magnificent spévtacie—more brilliant in tichuess of display and phceets 1r beauty, than the visiters had_ if ever, before enjoyed. . On Friday morning, at the solicitation of the Board of Visiters, we attended an artillery target exercise, under the charge of Lieut. Clark, of Ponn., late of Col. Dunean’s command in Mexico. The distance of th target was 1360 feet, and, notwithstanding the preva- lonce of high wind at the time, the target was shatter- ed three times in twenty discharges—while shells, thrown from a mortar, und calculated toexplodeat a great and definite distance, did so with wonderful ac curacy. The cadets are expected to go into encampment in course of a week or ten days, when they will be re- lieved from their studies until the first of September.

Arrest of a Burglar in the sAct.—Sergeant Good- now, belonging to the 3d ward police, arrested Friday night a man calling himself John Thompson, on a charge of te to commit a burglary on the tai- lor’s store, No.1] West Broadway, occupied by Thomas Coburn, It appears from the circumstances in this case, that about three weeks since, the above named remises were entered with a false key by some bur- jars, and a lot of sating, yelvets and silk handkerchiefs, valued in all at $160, stolen since which time ne trace has been obtained of the robbers, nor the where- about of the hole peste: On Wednesday night, between the hours of one and two o'clock, a woman who resides over the tailor’s store, heard some one on the stoop. She pushed up the window, and there she saw two men standing at the tailor’s door, and one ‘appeared to be fingering at the lock. The noise occa- sioned by her pushing up the window, alarmed the men below, and off they both started. Knowing that Mr. Coburn had been robbed some short time before, she related the suspicious circumstances to him the next morning when hecame to business, This infor- mation alarmed Mr. Coburn, and he concluded to keep ® watch on the store ani to affect that object he made up bed to in. and last night (Thursday), pes ten o'clock, just ss he was taking off his coat to jay down, he heard s noise at the door, as if some one was trying to puta keyin. He at once suspected it was a thief, and stepped softly to the door, took hold of the handle. and opened it suddenly, when he saw two men standing close at the key hole, one of whom drew something from the door, and in a confused manner, they both started off and ran in different directions. Mr. Coburn immediately pursued the it one along Hudson street, calling out, “stop thief,” and after long run, the man was stopped, ‘and the above officer being near at hand, took the accussed into custody. ‘As the rascal ran along Hudson street, by the name of Barnett Connelly, as he ed, saw him throw something from his hand into the street, and heard it jink on the stones; on procuring a light and examining the spot, a brass skeleton key was found. which, on examination, fitted the lock of the door which he was detected in trying toenter. This burglar is evidently an old band, having Wen recog- nised, when taken before the magistrate, as an old of- fender, by the name of Thomas, who, with his bro- ther, bas but a few months been liberated from the State prison. This Thomas and his brother are both considered to be expert burglars. Seme four years ago they arrived in this city from Englaad, and shortly after robbed the hardware store of Mr. Spies, in Pearl street, for which crime they have served out a term in the State prison, at Sing Sing. This is the man, from description, who committed a burglary in Boston. a short time since, ona hardware store, and on being detected by the watchman, in his endeavor to escape, drew a pistol, and shot him in the body, inflict- ing wound through which he died the next day It isto be hoped now, that the authorities will endeavor to bring this villain to a just punishment. Justice Lothrop committed him to the Tombs for a further ex- amination. On his being asked by the Justice where heresided, he said he lived in Madison street, but not at No. 21. We wonder if Bob Sutton knows him? Sagacity of a Dog.—Yesterday morning, at, the rej turn of the watch prisoners before Justice Lothrop, some ten or twelve females were brought in by the 6t! ward officers, from off the Five Points, consistii motley group of loaferesses ornamented with black eyes, bloody faces, cut lips, and tattered dreases; they were all seated along on & bench in order to await the decision of the magistrate. Some of them were still laboring under the effects of that poison which is sold to these poor miserable creatures at three cents a glass, denominated rum, Amongst these beauties was a wo- man by the name of Ellen Luke,.who was resting her head against the rail, apparently in a happy state of insensibility, At this moment the attention of the court was directed to the singular movements of a smart looking black and white dog, with a short tail, who had forced his way into the office, and was busily engaged in smelling the legs of the crowd outside the ratling which is placed across the court-room to keep the prisoners separate from the spectators, after smell- ing all around, the dog suddenly jumped ‘over the rail, and proceeded at once to smell the loafers and loaferesses arranged along on the bench, until he came to the imposing body of Ellen Lake, and getting one sniff of her person, he imme- diately recognised his mistress, sprang on to her lap with his fore paws, wi his little tail, and immediately showing evident signs of great delight by licking with his tongue her face all over, and placing one paw around her neck, as much as to aay, “ How glad I am to see you once more.” It was pleasing sight to witness the faithful animal show so much af- fection at the finding of his mistress, On his rough tongue passing over her face, it somewhat aroused her from her revery; and supposing that the policemen were still holding her, she exclaimed, “ Let me alone, youd——d M. P.! I didn’t do nothing. What do you take me in for? The spectators, who had been quite still, watching the dog’s movements, all this time, were unable to contain themselves any longer; but burst out into immoderate laughter. The poor dog, hearing the laughter and excitement, gave his mistress an extra lick on the nose, which tickled considerably that sensitive organ, thus causing the old woman to open her eyes; and then such a sceno took place between the short tailed dog and the long-nosed ‘woman as was truly amusing, The dog fawned on his mis- tress and she kissed him and patted him with as much fondness as she woulda child. ‘The meeting scemod to be appreciated on both sides, and afforded quite an interesting scene of a dog's sagacity and devotion to its owner. ‘This dog, it appears, from its long experience on the Five Points, and knowing his mistress’ failings, had learned by instinct, on missing his mistress, to run to the police office the first thing in the morning. and there invariably he would always find his mistress. As the go against Ellen was only for being intox- icated an litle noisy in the streets, and through the intercession of her fond dog ereated a sympatl M in the kind heart of the Justice, to go upon a Fe - mand, that she would in future refrain from drinking any more rum, She thankea the magistrate and left the court with her dog close by her side, who looked up in her face,as much as to say, “come along, Nelly, I have got you off once more,” and then wagged his lit- tle short tail. The audience laughed, and thus ended the dogecene. Watch Returns Before Justice Lothrop.—At the re- tura of the watch house prisoners before the above ma- gistrate, oMcer Sauer, of the First ward, brought into court a young man by the name of Henry Brant, who was still laboring under the effects obi nor ; he was charged with having threatened to stab his father and mother witha knife. ‘The father and mother were both in court, ready and willing to testify against their unruly son, ‘ihe father, John Brant, was # little, fun- ny looking Dutchman, speaking very broken English; and when asked by the Justice to state his case, deli- vered himself as follows:—‘:Mine boy here, him werr: Dad, so much bad dat I can’t support wid him; Tarek, night he werry much drank in mine house, and open- eda large knife to take mine life; he bin to Mexico in de army, and he dare killed de Devil and every dings vot she could kill, and now he comed back and she try to kill hima own fodder; larsh night him call me to come down stairs, and she say “you come down stairs you old d—n b—h, (laughter) I stick dis knife into you;” (renewed laughter;) I not please him too much to go down stairs, (laughter,) sol sends mine wife, and she gous a little way down stairs, and him dreatened to stick hims modder wid de knife, too. Mtg wine Maaistrarr—I see from your statement, he must be rather a hard son It would have been better for him to have remained in Mexico, where he would be better entitled to use his knife, than to come home and at tempt to kill his parents, Such conduct will not be al- lowed here; therefore, | shall take the charge against him. and hold him to bail. ‘The young man was called pp: but being so drunk, he was unable te mutter anything more than that he had been to Mexieo, and had been in 16 battles and skirmishes, and at the taking of the city of Mexico, he was wounded in the leg. sent te the hospital,and arrived in this city in April last; but as to killing his father, that, he said, he never intended to do ; but, being drunk, he thought he wasin Mexico again, where, he suid, they were allowed to kill Mexicans. However, this explanation was not sufficient for the Justice, who locked him up in the Tombs to answer to the charge at court, which appeared to relieve the old folks from a great anxiety of mind, to know they were protected from tho attacks of their terrible bowie knife son. Stealing Sovertigns.—OMficer Hickey, of the 1st ward, arrested, yesterday, Daniel McDonald, James McGehe; and Samuel McQuade, alias Cain, on a charge of steal- ing a purse from the pocket of Patrick G. Calchan, con- taining $195 26, in gold sovercigns. It appears that the accused parties were lodging at the house of Mr. Calehan, No, 21 Washington street, and during the night one of them stole the money, and & the others o portion of it, On their arrest, Me ey poknow- ledged tho theft, and on searching their persons the whole of the money was recovered, with the exception of $60, which was, no doubt, carried off by MoQuade, who escaped from the house by jumping out of the back room window, has not yet been retaken, Jus- tice Lothrop committed the two in tody for trial. ovng man TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE, Summary.

Sunnoaare’s Count, June 16—Before Chas.McVeane Esq.—In the Matter of Proving the last Will and Te tament of Catherine Schermerhorn.—This was an ap- plication to the Surrogate on the petition of Mr. Peter Schermerhorn, one of the executors named in the will of Miss Catherine Schermerhorn, to admit said will to | be proven. It appeared the testatrix died in March last, atthe advanced age of 80 years, leaving a very large real and personal estate, and also a large circle of relatives; previous to her death, in the month of De- ember, 1847, she made her will, and thereby devised unto her nephews, Peter and Ab'm Schermerhorn, and to the widow of her nephew John S. Schermerhorn, the whole of her property, both real and personal, subject to the payment of her debts and funeral expenses, and appointed the said Peter and Abraham, her executors. Some timo in April last,the will was brought into court and # citation issued and served on the next of kin; the matter came up on the second instant, and the grant of probate is opposed by Joseph H. and Wm. J. Stewart, two of the next of kin. Several witnesses were examined on behalfof the executors. Messrs. Cuas. KE. and Geo. T. Strona, testified that they wore the witnesses to the will; that they saw the old lady sign and acknowledge it; that she requested them to subscribe their names to it as witnesses, and that hot subscribed itas such in her presence; they also testified that in their opinion her mind was sound. Doctors Joun Netson and Binny were also examined. The former testified that he had been her physician for the last ten years, and went on to detail the state of her health during that period, and particularly during her last illness; he stated that she was several times indisposed during the ent pre eding her death, Di tor Bibby merely testified that he was one of the wit- nesses to a will made by her in 1838 or 1840. Witt ©. Scheamennony was next examined on behalf of the executors. Resides at the corner of Great Jones street and ery hp Place, in the city of New York; is a lawyer, and is 27 years of age; is son of Po- ter Schermerhorn, named as one of tho executors in the will; was acquainted with the testatrix all his life- time; witness drafted and superintended the execution of the will offered for probate; tho testatrix instructed witness; witness read it over to her after it was drawn, and before it was executed; she signified her assent to it; she gave witness instructions during the Iast a tumn, probably in the month of November; she gave them to aed at Mrs. Jeasup’s, in 8th street; the in- structions she gave were to prepare a will precisely simi- lar to one then in his possestion, except that the widow of John 8.
