the place the appearance of a fancy fair, or
something ot a similar description. Tho foun

Marivk Basd.?The Marina Band played
on Saturday evenir.g. at the White House,
and attracted a large throng of well dres.?ed
people, to bear their harmonious strains. The
selection of pieces was good, being chosen from
tbe aost fashionable operas, aud consisting ol
other popular airs. '? Young America" was
rery fully represented, and appeared to erjoy
the amusement as much as and even more than
their elder relations, dencin? and jumping

were reaped up in a mass outside the enclosure,

Mr. Savage appeared rather taken aback at
this piece of intelligence, and said that he was

last Friday night at Temperance Hall, which
was executed by tbfr-pupils of Professor Kein

we understand to-morrow evening: Ccnsider
?gA .1 ?? that lhe PuPils had been
under the Professor's tuition, their perfor
mances were highly creditable, and gave
much satisfaction to tho?e who were present.
Several duets, trios, and quartetts, were ex
ecuted, but the mam excellence of the singing
consisted in the manner in which over two
hundred pupils, girls and boys, were made to
sing m chorus. The principle pieces were a
TT executed by all, entMed
the Sailor Boy,'^'the Old House at Home/'
* trio, several Temperance songs, Ac., Ac
and particularly Uncle Sam s Arm. which
was capitally sung by Master Castle.

GEORGETOWN CORRESPONDENCE.
Q*0R6KT0Wir, May 15,1854.
After our letter of Saturday last, warrants
were issued by Justice Reaver, against Henry
Eyrie, alias Ilenry Murphy, and Geo. Goings.
free negroes, charging them with robbing and
setting fire to the premises of Jos. N. Feaison.
They were arrested by officers Thomas and
Kitchen, and taken before the above named
Justice yesterday morning, who committed
th&ni to jail, to answer the chage before the
crin;?ral court. The evidence against them,
though partially circumstantial, we learn is
very strong Several pieces of harness, sup
Eused to belong to Government, and to have
ecu taken from one of the house, which was,
at the time of the fire, in tbe occupancy of
Lieutenant Meig?. was found ou the premises
ot the mother of Murphy, where it had been
placed by him. Tbe parties themselves let the
affair out. It appears that on Saturday last
a quarrel occurred between them, about a
young lady of the sable race, whieh resulted
in criminations and re-criminations between
them, sufficient tojustify Mr. Fearsop in,having
the parties arrested. From all we can learn
there is but little doubt that they will be con
victed of the charges, if the whole trujj) can be
drawn from the parties present at the time of
the quarrel. ABby Bjrle was alto hold to
bail, tor having on hoc premises goods supposed
to bo stolen.

From every direction we continue to receive
the most flittering reports of thf growing,

Georgetown and Washington of meeting at the
Rock Creek Bridges for the pirpo?e of fight
iug stone battles, vas on yesterday revived by
? large party meeting at the Paper Mill
B'idge, and having p. regular fight, to the
great annoyance and danger of passers by.?
