' Upon examination of the record of the trial, we find there really was a juror, named Thos. Barrett, who was the second one sworn, and AVID) is described as a printer. Of course the letter-writer's theory is refuted bythe fact that previon.s.to the execution of Prof. - Webster he made a confession in which every detail of the mime was carefully related. He also followed this tip with a letter to the brother of the tiler tiered man, delivered after the crime had been expiated, in which the utmost contrition was Itetrayed and forgiveness besought. .Theietter which we have g iven above, writ ten by a person who claints to have been one of the jurors by whom Professor Webster was eonvicted, is certainly a strange one, whether written under the goadings of conscience or the promptings of insaitity. No impostor or friend of the family could hope by such a con fession to overturn a verdict' which has had the full sanction of popular opinion for nearly a quarter of a century. The letter is written with a firm hand, is carefully punctuated, and betrays no signs of madness. It will be per ceived that the writer's theory is that the re mains found in the Medical College were not those of Parkman, and that he alone is a ens tOtiitill of the terrible secret which is not even yet betrayed., THE •ROBBERY OF THE FIRST NA TIONAL BANK. CLEARFIELD, PA. Arrest of One of the Robbers in St. Louis From time St. Louis Republican. June 5.1 On May 12, the First! National Bank at Clearfield, Pa., was entered and robbed of about !.20,000. The bank was broken into during the night. the door of the sate was ripped open and the money taken out. Next morning the burglars were pursued and two of them were caught, one of them. hieing the notorious safe-blower known as Jack Nelson, alias "Califcr•nia Jack." The third man, named Jeddie E. Lamnoine, made his escape, and arrived in this city on Tuesday last. :Meanwhile a requisition was procured from Governor Geary, of Pennsyl vania, an Governor McClurg, and armed with this document the cashier of the Clearfield Bank, Mr. Daniel W. Moore, came on to Mis souri, and, going up to Jefferson City, procured a warrant for the arrest of Lantoine. Yester dayAhe matter was placed in the hands of the Chief of Police, and. the latter detailed officers Harrigan and Tracy to make the arrest. Lamellae was arrested by therii about four o'clock, at his ' residence on Franklin, near Garrison avenue. He ()Mired no resistance. The prisimer was delivered over to 31r.Moore, who, accompanied by officer Tracy, left last evening, for Clearfield, Pa., where tho rob bery was committed. Lameme was arrested some time since, on suspicion of having been connect of with the safe robbery of the Frank lin county (Mo.) treasury of some 510,000, but was acquitted. He has been engaged in the liquor lonsiness..oii the ,northeaSt . corner. of :, Fourth• and Green streets, Muter the tirM of Lamoino & Co.

But the Government was known to be especially-desirous of getting rid of M. Thiers, and that fact greatly assisted his re-election; just as the faVor,showii, to M. Emile Olivier produced the precisely contrary effect. Both are strong instances. therefore of the utter and uncompromising hostility of the Paris constituencies to the personal rule of the Emperor. And in all the great towns of France the same feelings have been displayed. At Bordeaux, -3larseilles, Lyons, Nantes, the vOte,' whether suct!ess- Ad-or—not the—first-instanceTints—lieelil such as to demonstrate beyond all paksibility of doubt the spirit of the urban population; and if the result has not been at once final, it is owing entirely to that system, which I have formerly described,of "tacking" on large rural db.tricts to sections of towns, so as to swamp the votes of the latter. '• The result of the elections in the Department, are now also pretty nearly ascertained, and may he' briefly sit - tinned up as follows: In 230 ciretunSeriptionS the elections have been final and in . 5.5 there must be a second poll. Out - Of - the (Above . 0 ...10 tlie.tioveniMent has alriady. — gained ono, ...I th.. opposition tint- 30—a result frilly justifying isaiti in my knit letter, to the effect that a vast majority - of the rural districts must, go for the , government, and ,that the Opposition' could only 1160; to be .4uccessful here and there. The above, however, repre sents, I think, the full amount of thfe GoVern - -' meat success, which is certainly large enough, in all conscience, but is not likely, to,, be extended further. Of the fifty-tive elec tions whkh remain to he decided, the Govern ment, judging from the state of the polls, can expect to win very few, if, any. At least, it must be entirely the fault of the Opposition if such should be the ease. In every instance; I think, without exceptida, even where the official candidate already stands at the head of the poll, the votes given to him are exceeded by the combined votes given to the several Opposition candidates.. If the latter agree to unite their forces they are certain to win. In several eiremnserip tions an Opposition candidate already heads. the lift, and in a few the contest only lies between liberals, or between a liberal and a democrat. I scarcely* thinkit,is too much to calclate, that ' out- of. the fifty-five decided eleelons, fifty will go for the Opposition. If to them we add the thirty votes already secured in the Provinces, with the nine votes which may be considered safe in Paris, we arrive at a minority of about ninety, or just short "of one-third in . a Chamber estimated, in round numbers, say at 300. I give these figures not as being precisely . exact, but as representing pretty accurately the relative numerical force of the two parties—lsay the "two" parties advisedly, for if there be one thing made . more plain than another by the experience of theSe electiwis, it„*. is that. all intermediate differences are thrown into the shade, and that the struggle hence forth is to be between those who would up hold the Empire and those who seek to over throW it. But the above is only a numerical view of the relative position of the Government and the OpPosition; and is very far, in my opinion, t'ronr tfTpresenting either their real compara tive strength or the perils of the situation. A really free and constitutional government, un der monarchical form, which commands a ma jority of one hundred in the House of Repre sentatives, would, no doubt, be strong enough, and have nothing to fear. Ilut the question is, what do the two hundred imperialist depnties really represent? The country or the Government? The opinions, feelings, ardor, prejudices even, of the , _stititensiesho nro mitpposod to roforn them; or only the opinion's and pressure of , the local adniinistrations? The liberal Provincial papers, as well as the Paris press, as I before re marked, teem with exposures of thhi corrupt influence, and with _threatening letters from Prefec't and 'Siib-Prefeet§ to :Layers and schoolmasters, and every class of officials, as ;as to themselves, upon the consequence of giving, sup port to :the, pppop t ente of. the :.Government.' The subordinate officials have been every Where threatened - With dismissal, and the rural electors • told ~ that they must expect nothing for their &nnmime—neither now bridges, nor roads, fior school-house, nor church, nor mar ketoutir anything-unless the official midi= date be returned: -.NoW ; Under these eiretun stances, the question undoubtedly arises, what is a majority, obtained , by, such practices worth,?.. ~ The Eniperor may cortaiuly boast of linviiiW2orsdiVittieVitt 'hiSliabY'litit; the "couuOy `,l", We : aWknOw what the ninety or ono' hundred opposition dopu. ties 'reriresent.

Its provisions, unless we are misinformed, are of a nature to edify all right-minded persons. It appears that a little wholesome pressure is to be brought to bear on the sick and dying for the benefit Of their souls; all physicians are ac cordingly forbidden, tinder pain of excommu- Mention, to continue visiting such of their pa tients as may be dangerously ill, unless such patients shall have confessed their sins within three days after the doctors have been 'called in, and unless they shall have declared their readiness to re ceive the 'extreme unction. This coercive measure is intended to preient the recurrence of deplorable cases, in which, owing to acci dent, inadVertence, or nonsensical scruples on the part of the sick, they have .died without receiving the consolations of religion. It is, we are.told,bv no means of recent contrivance, being_ founded on the provisions of a bull is suedlp.l72l-4 which.had lapsed, and was itself • only a repetition of an older immiction to the same effect.

A woman has been here for some flue past who goes by the name of nosita Fer nandez.

She is exceedinglypretty, and resides nt flue Paste of Charles 1.11. Well, the Super intendent of the prison (Cabanas) recently no ticed that this woman bore a sulen-conduclu (permit) to see any and all the prisonerS, es pecially those of them who had means, and she went in and out of the fortress whenever she pleased. The Superintendent was advisee by a very wealthy man, called Hernandez, that Rosita, had been to see him and had told him that for $2,000 paid into her hands, he would be re leased. The Inspector of Police was 1110tifikl of this, and in order to test the matter thor oughly, put into the hands of Hernandez 2,000 in bills, which had been, however, pre viously marked. On the following day, Ito- Nita, when going out of the Cabanas, was searched, and the identical $2,000 in bank notes was found upon her person. She was taken to the Case tie recogidas and put in coniniuniendo (prevented from talking with any one), by or tier of Gen. Duke. Now, according to the report of the matter given by persons entitled to the fullest credit, it was fully proved, upon examination, that Eosita, Perez Calvo, and the Director of the Administration, P.

Proceedings or the Armed Mob. HAVANA, June 2.—The population is alarmed, and a perfect commotion is feared. Last night we bad the prelude that always leads to violent attioll. Gen. Pelaez arrived here last Thurs day quite unexpectedly, the cause not being known as to wherefore he had given up the u•ommand of the troops which are operating in the Chico Villas: He went to the Hotel Tele grail, and at this plate last evening the volun teers took it upon themselves to give him what is called a clarrcari. Pelaez managed to es cape; no one saw him as he did Su,but it is now ascertained that he got away through a back door, aS his retreat by any other route would have been impossible. Had he not succeeded in this movement his head would most as suredly have been lost. The clamor and cries launched forth by the 500 mensurrounding . the hotel struck dumb all our organs of sensation. "Death to Pelaez " ''Death to the traitor," "He who gives ate conducts," "Let us have his head!" An infinite number qt' cries went, up front this crowd of semi-barbarous men, and the tumult was terrible. There reigns now the most complete discord among the Span iards: Vint this was not all.
