to Mr Barney he desired to make an explanation.
The report In the Republican of this city of the

Judge Merrick, was erroneous In stating that
Judge Merrick went nut of his wsy to compllu.eot

Judge Merrick .-poke of tbe Inaccuracy of tbe

the local editor of that paper aa'd to him that the

and distinctly that h? baa credited the ertate with
an aggregate of H5K 20, received of the aaid Robert
J. Marahall for rent of the premlaea occupied
by hiic.
The replicationa to theaecond, third and fourth |
exception* are or trie tame nature as tbe answer
to tbe flrat: showing that Dr. L- has charged

he has credited the estate with <35. received at
various tiroes from Mrs Burch or her husband;
and that his receipts to Mrs. Burch will show
that he received 940, an 1 the reason why the
whole amoant :s not credited is that be found It '
necessary to distrain for the rent, and bad to pay
the offleer for his services, and he credited tbe
amount he actnall> received; also, that Mrs.
Burch la In arrears for rent due a portion of l^st
year, but *he alleges that those arrears were caused
, by tbe ofictous Interference of Samuel C. Barney,
who served a written notice on her not to pay
Dr. L., otherwise she Wculd be liable to pay the
rent a second time >
That tbe sixth exception, which states that bis
accounts " show that be has onlv received *1-1 T\>
from Anthony Pollok, for tbe period of one yenr,
without accounting for tbe default of *ald Pollok
In paying the fall amount of rent due," 1* not

of Mr*. DeKraft, (formerly Barney ) and is credited

tbe residue (f 164 25) is credited to tbe estate of
tbe children. That tbe ssid Everett Is still in
srrers lot rent, and tbe legs! remedy for the collection
of rent was resorted to, and that he has
not been sble to collect more than the amount
above stated on account of Everett having entered
tbe military service.

that be has set forth the name of each tenant and
tbe amount paid by tbe same, in bia account, so
that all persons can at once see the amount he has

except In the case of Joseph Anthony, who
did, on the 27th day of that month, pay hts
month'* rent to Dr Webster Lindslev, Mr* Barney's
agent, she being then living.
Mr. Winder said that the rent being due and
payable on the first of October, the collector
ought to have credited the children with It.
The Court overruled thia exception, and Mid
that D* Hsrvey Llndsley never having received
that month's rent, waa not chargeable with It.

Mr- Winder raised the point In reference to

ATTwrr to Bilil Jail?On thursday lMt
the guards at the jail discovered that a daipnilr
prisoner, known as Win. L Fleming *li*s Norton,
had made preparations for an escape. The
prisoner, who is a vary unruly character, had boen .
placed in irons some time since for making |
threats to hill different person* la the prison, sad '
while thus can lined he had made from the majnsprtn
t of a watch, a piece of hoop from a slopbacket
in his cell, snd s stick, s saw, with which
he sawrd off his irons; but before be had aa ?p- |
portualty to use his Instrument on thsbar ha was i
again secured by tbe guard*, who bad been laformed
of what wss going on The saw Is one
of tbe most Ingenious tools of tbe kind we have
ever seen, and it Is bard to comprehend bow be
managed to make It, be having no file with which
to cut the teeth. It Is probable, however, that
thla part of the work vu done with an old knife
which had been found secreted In a boot-lag In
me ceil tome days since.
Fleming was sentenced bj the Criminal Court,
In January laat, to alx months In jail and one year
In the penitentiary?the II rat .'"ran assault and

for robbing a teamxter, named Charles

In December last; for which latter offense
he wi? sentenced to the penitentiary.
He ww srrested some four year* Mince, on snsp'.cioa
of having murdered a man In Tennessee;
but no proof of the fact being attainable, he waa
released While in the prlaon, Mr. Calhoun,
Surveyor General of Kanaaa. and a Mr. Robinson
of the *ame place, informed the magistrate that
he (F ) bad been hired in Kansas to come to
Washington to murder them. Since then he haa
been occasionally about the city, hanging round
the taverns, and when the States-Ho<e party waa
in existence he was one of tneir leaders. The Jail
guards, however, will keep a sharp eye on him
now until his sit months are up,when be will be
transferred to the Custody of Warden King, at the
penitentiary.

been occaatooed by their groat anxiety to make as
heavy a haul of priaoarra there as may t>e po??lbl*

moat of which were formerly, parte of A. Pidaey
Johnson's panic stricken Bowling Green rareea.
No apprehenaion concerning the result of a
collision between those forcea ia entertained here.
If, aa we anticipate. Beauregard ia uaed up, tbe
way to the rear of Mempbia will be entirely claar
for the further progreaa of Grant and Pmlth, together
with the command of tbe last railroad connection
