Last Etehmo.-The second annual carnival at the Camden Bkating Park came oil last evening, between two and throe thousand persons were present, including the rMe of Camden. A great many came over, during the evening, from your city, and about S o'clock the Park wai literally crowded. In tbe middle of the enclosure a laree polo had been temporarily rat-ted, to which were sus pended rores leaVilnir to different parts of tlie fence; said ropes belnsr filled with vartejtated Chinese lanterns, which imparted a light almost equal to the moon. Everything was propitious for this great event ol the' season the sky over head bolne clear and bright, the stars sbininsz in all their glory, and the ice -being in splendid condition. An evedllent band ot music was in attendance, and discoursed popular polkas, waltze?, etc. As the band commenced playing, all over the ice could be seen couples automating to keep lime to the tune; many suc ceeded very well, but others, not being used to dancing on skates, found themselves In a very unpleasant position. Nothing daunted, they were up and at it h trnin , and before the eveninir was over bad roa-t'-jrad the first rudiments, and no doubt the 'next lime will be able to avoid the tumblinsr-down step. Muny persons were a'tired in costume Punches, sailors, marines, old men, etc., had many repre sentative. The ladies were Dot behind the aentlemen in regard to fancy dresses, as we saw a tew who were attired in fancy costumes, and you could see an old woman skating with an adolescent marine, or a young lady with a man . ho looked old enough to be her grandlather. CITY INTELLIGENCE. For Additional Local Kerns see TLird Poge, The Tragedy of Testkruay. In our latest edition of yesterday afternoon we cave an account of a tragedy the narration of wli ich has startled the denizens ot our quiet city. The following are tbe particulars: The actor in this fearful crime was a man by the name of James McCormick, aged S2 years, lie was a short, thick-sot man, with smooth fuce aud a quiet man nor. lie had for some time past followed the sea for a living, and bad been in the naval service during the war. At the time ot the murder he was out of employ ment, having been discharged from the Navy Yard, where he hud been employed as a laborer until last Wednesday. For years past McCormick had been in the habit ot ill-using and abusing his wife Elizabeth, who was a delicate and rattier sickly woman, two years his lunior. But it is asserted that it was only wheu in his cups that he did so, and when be was sober he was a kind husband and a good neighbor. Complaints had frequently been made of his conduct to her, and she lias Irequently shown marks of his brutality. But the end of his cruelty culminated yester day in the cruel murder of his wife. A'iout balf-pat 11 o'clock the neiehborhood was alarmed by the sound ot a violent quarrel in. McCormick's house, which is in McLaughlin's court, in the rear ot No. 424 Marriott street. Shortly afterwards one of the neighbors had McCorniick arrested for an assault and battery upon his wile, and h was committed, after a hearing on that charge, by Alderman Lutz. Soon alter his committal on that charge, Alderman Lutz received word that Mrs. McCor niick was dead, and he made out a commitment against McCormick on a charge of murder. On going to tbe scene of the occurrence to leain the real state of affairs, our reporter learned many additional particulars. Tbe murder was Urstdiscovered about 12 o'clock noon, by some blood trickling under the frontdoor way. On going inside a neighbor found Mr. McCormick partially ljing on a settee, with the blood still trickling down from a wound in her leg on to the floor, where a large mass of clotted gore had collected on the ran carpet. The Coroner was notified, and removed the woman, aud the blood was removed aud washed up as tar as could be. The following testimony was given by the next-door neighbor. He says of McCormick That yesterday morning he had been drinking and quarrelled with his wife. A neighbor called in and pacified them, and then McCormick lay down on a settee. The same neighbor after wards heard tbe wite ot McCormick cry out, "Jimmy, don't kick me!" Then all was quiet, until they saw a quantity of blood that had come from Mrs. MeOonn'ck. She had been kicked on the leg, and she bled to death from the wounds made. He had attempted her life, and often threat ened to kill her, and ?he lived in dread of ber lile. When be was charge! with the murder, McCormick made a defense that she had fallen, aud cut her leg over a bucket. A Broker Missing Fears of Foul Plat. On Saturday evening last, about nine o'clock, Mr. Isaac Rowe, a broker doing business in the office of Mr. Thoma9 A. Truetitt, on Gold street, arrived at his residence, No. 611 South Eleventh street, in this city. He placed his wallet on the mantel, and shortly after left the house, since which time nothing whatever has been seen or heard of him. The family are in itreat distress on account of bis disappearance, and have placed the detectives on bis track, but as yet without any avail. Mr. Rowe was fre quently in the habit of carrying considerable money with him, a vl although he leit his wallet in the house previous to his disappearance, it is not known but that he had other money about his person at the time. It is greatly feared that he has been waj laid by some desperadoes, and foully dealt with. ' Mr. Rowe is a ir an of middle height, stoutly built, with a full, fresb face and prominent nose. His hair Is slichtlv tinged with grev: beard worn only under the chin. He dresses usually In black. If any person can furnish his family with any information concerning his where abouts or fate, they will afford great relief to u stricken family. Lehigh University. During the year lwti5, by the niumticence of tne Hon, Asa Packer, arrangements were periected for the founding aud erection ol an educational institu tion at South Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, which -hould be designated as the Lehith University, since which time one large building has been completed, and Packer Hall is being rapidly erected. The object of this institution Is to provide opportunities for imparting to young men a complete pro'esbional education, which . chould not only supply tbeir seneral wants, but tit them for immediate and active partici pation in the practical and professional duties ot the time. Tne educational qualities of this University will be aoparenl when we announce that Henry Coppee, LL. D., President, and Pro fessor of History and English Literature, for merly connected with the United States Military Academy at West Point, aud latterly as presid ing officer of the University of Pennsylvania, located in this city; the Rev. Eliphulet Nott . Potter, M. D.; Charles Mayer Wetherill, Ph.D., M. D.; Edwin Wright Morgan, LL. D.; Alrrei Marshall Mayer, Pb. D.; and Willinni Theo dore Ru'pper. Esq., compos the faculty. Johx Smith in Trouble. Some time uuo, when John committed suicide, we thought that we had done with him. But it was not long afterwards that he was uo for murder aud after that, the last we heard of him he' was arrested as a auspicious character. Ho was last evening arrested at Beach ami Brown streets, on a charee ot interfering with an otlicer in the dNcbarze of his duties. Otllcer hart hud arreted a man for drunkenness aud disorderly conduct, when John Interfered and yot tbe prisoner ort". 1 he consequence was that John was himself arretted, and, after a hearing be I ore Alderman Toland, was held in $500 bail to answer the charge. In the Bucket Business. George Fisher, a young man, was arrested at Eighth and Catharine streets last evening, on a charge of larceny. It appears that he went into a provi sion store at tbe corner of Eighth and Catharine .streets, and picking uo half a dozen buckets, was making off with them, wheu the proprietor of store, seeing the articles disappearing, fol lowed in their wake, and soon brought the thief to, and banded him over to an ollit er. He had a hearing before Alderman I'ottiuger, who .aiPiUted hln on the tnurge. THE DAILY EVENING TELKG It A rmL A Horse Caps Somc Rich Dbvklop mknts How John Lavi and bis 8osj David HODOHT TO RrPLKHIRH THM1 STUD. AbOtlt two months since, three lads, named James Springer, ami eighteen, David Hemphill, aged sixteen, and I'avid Levi, about fifteen, agree! together to go into the country and steil some horses. The evening arrived, but Levi "bucked out." The two others started. They proceeded to Ches ter county, and stole two horses belonging to James and William Fleming, of West Fallow Township, and made off. The owners immediately had posters printed giving a description of the horses, and offered 10o tor the recovery of them and the appre hension of the thieves. Sergeant Crout and Policeman Georgo Dcbaven immediately took the matter in hand, got information piece by piece, and finally restored the property to the owners. John K Gardner, after a difllcult arid tedious journey, captured the two boys. Yester day the quarto James Springer. David Hemp bill, John Levi, and David Levi had a hearing before Alderman Hurley, the two former charg ing the latter with being accessories. From the evidence of James Springer, it appears that the defendants were t'lld by Levi, when they went up to the country, to be careful when they came down with the horses; when they arrived in town they took the horses to Bcrkenstock's stable at Levi's request; in two or three days the money for feeding them was paid by Levi, and they were taken away from the stable. Levi then proposed to Bend one of them algrey horse "over Jersey," so as he could not be seen. With the other horse the two defendants touk a load of glass to Camden. Levi' claimed the horse he had tent to Jersey as his property, as he had paid to feed him. Tbe horse was sent to Jersey and put to pasture with a farmer about two miles out . The bay horse the one the defendants had was to go out to pasture on the Nlcetown lane; but he (Levi) didn't tell them whereabouts. While the horses were in Levi's yard, his eldest fou, Nathan, put some dye on the horse's foot, and on the star in his forehead; his father was standing by his side at the time. He 6aid he would get a bottle of regular dve, and sent bis son down to the birbor's, and offered to give him a dozen bay rum bottles for a bottle of the original hair colorcr. He was to pay defendants $20 lor a suit of clothes and a w atch, for the bay horse. Levi's wife told the lads they ought to present her children with a pair of shoes, alter they had dispoied of the horse. The bay nag was sold to one George Buzzard. The witnesses were cross-questioned by Mr. Levi alter the following fashion, "What for you tells dese thinks ? did ish no auythinks about dish house; yoush told me him was in Bcrken stock's;" witness replied that Levi bad toldhim he had uo room, and that he had told him to take the house where he did. Mr. Levi resumed, "Yoush feelos came to mlsh pla.e and toldish me you al von horish to sell, dat you bah beu keep him for four or five days, and you vanted to swop for von wagon nut harness hay 1 Den I iriveJvou von St tordem borse, and you borrow von wagon for to go mit uxterlng." Witness suid he didn't do any thing of the kind. Tbe witness further stated that Levi's oldc-t son helped to take the horses down to Berkeu stock's stable, aud David Levi was going with him when he went to steal the horses; he wouldn't go the night they started, but under stood they were going-. David Hemphill was examined, and corro borated all the statements of his confederate, and stated that Levi's sou came to bis house and told him be had bett-r clear out as the detec tives were after bun; he told him he would not do anything of tbe kind. John Levi was examined, and acknowledged that he had told them they had better send t lie grey horse to New Jersey, but the reason he did It was because they could board him cheao. fprinaer was recalled, and stated that Levi told him to eo to the corner of Fourth and Berks streets, and he would see a man there; he was to ask bun where he could get good stabling for two horses, and this man was to tell him "ye," and he was to send the horses around to Berkln stock's. Then witness was to make a bargain with him to pay $150 for the bay, and he whs to get $1H0. Levi told us every morning we took the horses out to keep a sharp lookout. The evidence here closed, and Lvi and his son David were held in $1000 bail. The two lads were committed to prison. Burglary Result of Leaving Doors Open. About a quarter of an hour past mU nisht this morniug, Officer Sherret, of tha Fifth District Police, found the door of the store No. Ill S. Eleventh street, occupied by Mrs. Franklin, open. He went in and lighted the gas and fouud that the goods, consisting of dry goods and trim miners, were tumbled about and lying heaped toe-ether in a confused mass. He awoke the family who lived in the dwelling part of the house, and found that a part of the goods had been removed. About daylight this morning Mrs. Franklin, who lives at Tenth and Market street", went to her store, and tound that several articles were . missing, viz.: 2 Persian silk gowns; 2 boxes gents' kid gloves; 1 puffed night dress; 1 dozen ladies' 6tockings; and 1 carriage affghan. Tbu value ot the articles stolen amounted to $160. The thieves had walked in the Iront door, which had been left open, and helped themselves at their leisure. Flacks of Amusement Licensed.

In tbe upper and lower districts of our city there appears to be but little attention paid to the cleanliness of the streets. Ashes aud offal of all descriptions are thrown into the public thoroughfares, to ferment and become a nuisance.

Yett-rday morn ing a man was arrested in WTater street, below South, on a charge of throwing allies into the stieet. He had a hearing before Alderman But ler, and was fined for breaoh ot ordinance.

Ilonae of Representative. WASnrNOTOHf, January S.-Vndor the asrcoinent made yesterday, no business was in order except reneial debate, as if in Committee of the Wnolc on the State ol the Union. Mr. Spauldinir (0'iio) havinr the floor, made some remarks in reply to the observations of Mr. Stevens retteoiing on h'm, made the day before the adjournment over for the ho idays. It so happened tba whenever he (Mr. Spanidinc) made a remark in tho House, lie was subjeoted to the oanstie oritl clem of tbe learned neutleinea from Pennsylvania. So when be undertook, in the most Innocent man ner, to explain bis statements In reference to the lately rebellious (States, and to show that injustice bad been doue him in the Washington Chronicle, tho (rerjtleman(Mr. Stevens) bad declared that his l to th Mmnioi the editor, and that the doo rine implied in the resolu tion on which that artio'e commented, was tbe most ncrnioions that could possibly be got to obstruct the final tree reconstruction of the Government. That retolution aimp y instructed the Judiciary Committee to report what was the view of Conirtess in pairing the Constitutional amendment. His friend bad once ma -e a "ood humored fit at him when be happened lo differ with him In some of his firoposltions.by saying there as a vacant J udr-eshin n North Ohio, lie aoinowl -dged the hit (lauithtor), but he was not a candidate for that Judgeship. He might call his friend's attention, however, to a very eulofristic notice of blm in connection with a sea la the United States St nate. (Laughter.) Let the one oflfcet the other, and let it be under stood tbat neither of them were in muoh dancer of temptation. Heferiinir to the Constitutional Am-nrf. meut. he deiared that his original understanding wa that it was to be taken as a measure of concili ation in part the between loyat and dis oyal states ana that when tbe latter should have signaled their approbation of the Constitutional Amendment, and should have modolled iheir Sta e bovernmeu s so as to pass the ordeal ot Congress, they would he admitted to representation. MISSOURI. Annual Message of Governor Fletcher. St. Louis, January 5. Governor Fletcher's met-sage wan read yesterdav atccrnoon. It recommends to the Legislature the ratification of the Constitutional amendment to the State Constitution, and the founding of additional educational institutions.

Tou have now an opportu nity ol giving our people cause for rejoicing, ex ceeding that afforded by any event since the return of peace, by restoring that credit, and this, too, uuder circumstances which enable you at tbe same time to reduce the heavy burden of taxes to about one-halt of the levy of last year, and yet have a perfect assurance of being able to meet the accruing interest ou our State debt. Twelve months have brought hun dreds of thousands of people with their wealth of property and labor to strengthen our finan cial ability. No parallel enlsta to the rapidity with which wealth has accumulated in rvery avenue of industry w 1th which population bas increased in every part of our State. Within the past year substantial proofs of advancing: prosperity on every hand attest the sudden and unexampled growth of the State. Our taxable wealth nas grown from $1j8,C02,216, In 18G3, and from $262,354,932, in 1865, to a sum which, through tbe means of tbe law establishing a State board for the equaliza tion of taxes. pasBed at the last session, will reach $400,000,000. Assured of your lull and hearty co-operation in the measures herein proposed.it is ample compensation to me for whatever of labor or thought I have put forth or exercised, or for whatever of despondency I have experleuced in the dark and trying hours of the struggle to redeem our financial honor, to be enabled to give vou and to send to our creditors abroad a New-Year's greeting In the announcement which I make, with serious con tinence, that free Missouri will, within tbe year, redeem the plighted faith of slave Missotut.
