• Anecdotes of Probst.
We have been placed, by the same un
questioned and unquestionable authority
just referred to, in possession of a number of
interesting anecdotes concerning the priso
ner at the time of- the murder and subse
quent to it that have never yet been made
public
Greed of Gain at the bottom of the Crime.
Probst expected to realize fully one thou
sand dollars by the robbery of Mr. Dearing.
When asked if the murder was' a sudden
and irresistible impulse, growing out of the
desire for gain, he refused to avail himself
of that plea, and said no, he had determined
on, the murder the evening previous, and
perfected his plans during the night. When
asked if revenge had anything to do with
the motives of the crime,he answered in the
negative. The Dealings had always treated
him tolerably well, and he killed them ,
simply because he wanted to obtain the
money which he thought they possessed.
His Disappointment and Contemplated
• Suicide.
Probst says that after the butchery was
completed he experienced a feeling of
thorough appreciation of his crime while
ke• 'searching the house. He had expected to
obtain a . thousand dollars and he realized
$l7 75, four dollars of which proved to be
conitterfeits! The failure of the reward he
• ' , had hoped for and expected,bronght with it
--- a horror of the deed he had committed. He
felt a conviction :that he would be discovered
and hanged,and he stood lor some time with
Mr. Dearing's revolver poised in his hand,
and hesitating whether or not he should de-
atroy his own life. He finally determined to
brave it out, and he went on with his -pre
arationa for leaving the place. He • said it
i r was when he started away from her desolate
home that the full horror of his situation
came over him.
Why he Billed the Baby.
When it was urged upon the murderer,
by our informant, that the little baby could
not have harmed him or interfered with his
. ; ;Tewrpose of robbery,
,or exposed his guilt
: - 'had he suffered it to live, he replied, "It
nay Kern absurd fora man guilty - of the
crimes which I have committed to say so,
oat I killed the babe from mercifal mo-
77,-:ves! I knew that the Dearings had no
visitors,and that it would probably be Several
days before the murder was discovered, and
I could not bear the thought of the poor
child lying screaming and famishing, so I
thought it best to kill it. It will be remem
bered that before he left the scene of the
murder he gave the cattle a large supply of
hay and fed the c,.hickens. What a strange
compound
Miss Dolan's Money.
When asked if he had told the truth con
cerning the one hundred and twenty dollars
that were said to have been in Miss Dolan's
pocket-book, he reasoned that he would not
have been so foolish as to deny a paltry
theft when he was willing to confess such
terrible crime: He said that after he had
killed her he took the wallet from the pocket,
and found that it contained but three dol
lars and sixty-five cents, which he took.
He saw nothing of the larger sum, and
there is no doubt that he told the truth.
Remorse.
Probst said that when the bloody work
was completed, his horror and remorse be
came almost insupportable. To use his
own words, he "tried to get away from him
self." He plunged into vile dissipation, as
is known, and while he lived in constant
expection of being arrested, he almost
wished for the event. Life had become in
supportable to him.
.) Why He Looked Stolid.
When told that his sullen, stolid demean
o.7. at the trial caused the angry feeling
against him to be increased,he said, "What
sun Ito do? If I weep, they would say I
was a coward,and while I could kill women
and children, I would cry when I was pun
ished. If I was bold and defiant,they would
say it was because I was brutal and hard
ened. If I look blank and impassive, they
find fault with me for that. What am I to
do?"
As an evidence of what he felt daring the
trial he said that when Mr. Mann was clos
ing for the Commonwealth, a_,d was de
scribing the different victims of the mur
der, his heart was wrung with anguish.
He said Judge Allison's language, at the
time of 'the sentence, affected him in the
.same way.
"Little Mary."
The "Little Mary" referred to in the letter
of Probst, is his only sister, a girl of four
teen. A reference to her generally moved
him to tears. He was,by no means incapa
ble of the 'smelting mood" on other (ma-
alone. One day a gentleman Who enjoyed
the confidence of - the prisoner showed him
,':ii *picture representing some ' little
children on a holiday occasion. To
his surprise he found Probst weeping
..over it. He said," Why Anton,what are you
crying about?" He replied that it reminded
him of the time when he too was 'an inno
cent child, exclaiming, with much warmth,
"My God, if I could only bring those days
back again!"
Thus ends the history of one of the bloodiest
.ptectimes and the greatest criminals known in
odr annals, The culprit has paid the penalty
of his offences, the law has been vindicated,
lind we trust that it may belong, verylons,
before the world is shocked by a repetition
4 0f the offence that has rendered the name of
Anton Probst odious to all time.

*°'''
after numerous visits to both "Life" and
""Antique" classes, feel prepared to , give my
impressions in regard thereto.
First, of the "Antique Class"—
Some five or six years ago there • was s
fine working'band of young men who pur
sued their studies in tbe dismal looking
basement where casts of Antinous and the
the Venus of. Milo stand in their glorious
beauty. They were punctual in attendance
and produced drawings of those famous
works rivaling any of a similar character
bound in any school in Europe. Bat these
were soon separated by various causes.. Mr.
McKim, a promising young artist, entered
the army at the commencement of the war
and fell soon after at the battle of Ball's
Bluff. Then Mr. Crepon (painter of 692 in
the present exhibition) went to Europe and
is now there winning . both money and
reputation for himself in the "Gay City of
the Franks." Messrs. D. R. Knight and
J. E. Galvan, but shortly returned
from " the same place, have been
particularly - unfortunate in the renewal
of relations with their "Alma Mater," the
contribution of the first-named artists to
this year's display, being refused by a too
rigorous committee for having. arrived a
day behind the time specified in the regula
tions, and that of the latter being selected
(in t he werds of'one in authority) to rank
among the pictures that-had to be sacrificed.
The Messrs. Bensell, Bispham and Fagan
withdrew ftom the class about the same
time as the above-named gentlemen; since
then it has been gradually dwindling al
most into nothingness. At the period - I
allude to, the "Antique" - room was most
animated, twenty-five or thirty day-scho
lars being an average attendance. How
different now I One or two poor deluded'
youths, who, in the opinion of their amiable
families, are destined to become great ar
tists, sitting melancholy and apart, compose
as a general thing the entire class. They
seem, too, to be slightly timid when you
enter the place, and evince a certaki tre
pidation lest you should examine their
copies, which are as good as can be
expected from boys who have
no instructors but their own feelings to
guide them in studying a "Torso" by
Phidias, or the head of a Daphine by Pra
alleles. (?) With the "Life Class" things are
pretty much the same. Daring a visit last
winter we saw what we will now attempt
to describe. In the middle of a room of
moderate size, and close to the wall, upon an
elevated platform, stood an iudivid nal in the
attitude of the divine Apollo. His figure
was certainly intended to be full of the
spirit of ancient Greeee, but his brogue, for
he wouldapeak,betrayed the modern origin
of the article. A venerable gentleman in
spectacles and shirt sleeves, flanked ,on
each side by a. bluffly looking young
man, who seemed as if they did not
quite understand what it all meant,
together with a "culled pusson," like
wise in spectacles, asleep on a half
tilted chair, completed the "ensemble" of
the Life Claes of the Academy of the Fine
Arts. The skeleton banging by a rope in a
corner of the room, from the ceiling,
seemed to be presiding over the entire af
lair with every appearance of grim hilarity.
Now far be it from me to ascribe this fall
ing off to any unusual neglect of the inter
ests of the schools by the directors. The
war and its all absorbing influences have
no doubt drawn many from the study of the
beautiful to the more exciting pursuit of a
soldier's career. And this reason will ap
ply with equal force as an excuse for the
little attention the honored president of this
institution has of late given to the details
concerning , the managements of these
branches of instruction; the soldiers' fami
lies having claims upon his time and atten
tion that surpassed all minor considera
tions. But peace being again restored, a
new and liberal policy should be inaugu
rated, and I trust, if it be followed out in an
energetic spirit, that the art schools we
were once so proud of, shall again be looked
upon (as formerly) with admiration by our
neighboring cities. In relation to the Li
brary I will say nothing, not considering
that a few volumes of Racine, a stray tome
of Pngin's Gothic Architecture, and a few
others of such incomprehensibility that no
one ever looks into them twice, as worthy
to be dignified by such a title.

THE NAVAL ASYLUM.—The Asylum is
one of the institutions and specialties of
Philadelphia. It is one of the finest build
ings of our naval establishment in all the
country, and is probably to be enlarged be
fore long. Some hundreds of decayed or
superannuated man-o'-war's-men s from Ad-
Iniral to - common salt, have their homes
here; and during the war, thousands of sick
or disabled seamen have been treated and
cured at this establishment. Very recently
a change has been made in the officers of
the Asylum. Commodore Engle has been
replaced by Rear Admiral Paulding a su
perior officer, who won much credit by his
conduct at New York during the war; Cap
tain Turner, a very gentlemanly and com
petent officer, has yielded, in the natural
order of time, to Commander Patten, lately
commanding a receiving ship at Baltimore;
Chaplain Wood has given place to Chaplain
Jones; and Surgeon Harlan is replaced by
Surgeon Manlsby—a gentleman of high
professional attainments. The reputlition
of Rear Admiral Paulding for probity and
ability is a guarantee that the affairs of the
Asylim will be well' adminiatereff. Com
mandef Patten is well qualified to discharge
the duties which have been so well per-.
formed by Captain Turner.
IMPORTANT ARREST OP COUNTERFEITERS.
—Francis Mackey and Joseph Alexander
were arrested yesterday afternoon by Capt.
S. D. Franklin, a GoYernment detective, at

on the charge of being concerned in coun
terfeiting fractional currency. Mackey was
found in the third story front room, in the
act of printing 25-cent notes. A press was
discovered, besides two twenty-five cent
plates and one fifty-cent; also.. a large
amount of notes in an unfinished state. Al
exander was secured as an alder and abettor.
They , were taken before 'Recorder Enen,
who held them to bail to answer—Mackey
in $7,000, and Alexander in $5,000.
