which was published in Tun Panes of yesterday,
Mr. PRYOR sent a towage to Mr. Porno, inviting
him to a coireeptindenee outside of the District of
Columbia, 'Ur which Mr. Porten responded that,
inasmuch , ae the invitation contemplated a hos
'file meeting, and also Showed that Mr. PRYOR
INNS anxious 'to evade the penalties against
duelling in the District, he, (Mr. Porria,) as a Re
presentatiie frem Wisconsin, who would be dis
franchised by the Constitution of his State if he
received or sent a challenge, would prefer that any
correspondence should take place in Washington.
Es referred Mr. PRYOR to F. W. LANDER, as
hie friend. After two other letters Mr. PRYOR
sent an unconditional challenge through his friend,
Mr. Citistrsx, of Vitginia, in which no door was
left open for explanation. The challenge was
accepted by Mr. Porran, who, having the right to
name the weapons, chose the , ordinary bowie
knife. Before his acceptance was presented to
Mr. PRYOR'S second, Mr. POTTER addressed a let
ter to Mr., Lemont, in which he stated that be had
no hostility to Mr. PRYOR, and intended no - insult
to, him in debate. That he was opposed to the
Strident of but, inasmuch as freedom
of speeeh was threatened on the floor of the
Howe of Representatives, he was willing to
do'all in his powerto vindicate it. He added th'et
his life was Sought, and that he was ready to offer it
up, if by doing eo he could prevent a bloody eolli-
Mon in the House.
Aboitt midnight on, Thunday, Mr. Outman cal
led on Mi. LANDZs andpreeented a letter, in which
he declined the terms proposed, on the ground that
the bowie knife was an unnatural and savage man
ner'of settling a imilsonal difficulty; and he stated
that he wciid refuse to allow hip principal to ac
cept these terms, and that be bad taken the re
aponsibility of doing so without consulting him or
showing him the acceptanee of his challenge.
This letter of Mr; Catsmart was couched in very
indignant language. Mr. LANDLIt replied to RI"
a muterly manner. After admitting that the
bowie knife was a barbarous method to settle
personal 'quarrel, 'he proceeded to denounee the
.whole system , of duelling as a barbarous one, but
said ho•bed no eompunctione in regard to it, and
was ready to meet either Mr. PRYOR. or Mr. Curs
saisinttie'place 'of his friend Mr. Parrs'', without
restrictions. Mr. Onuses responded that neither
be nor his principalhad any q'uarrel with Mr: Lk"-
use, and he indulged in severe retentions on Mr.
POTTIIII, to Whbh Mr. LANDMR again replied in s
closing letter,' denying 'that Mr. Ponca intended
to evade Any responsibility in the premises, and
stating that it attacked he would defend his honor
t'd the honor of hie State and section from what
ever quarter attack might come, mid adding that
Mr: Lumen himself kad no conscientious scruples,
and was ready to Meet Mr. Pavos or Mr. Minium
with any weapon they might designate. ,
Here oorrospondence between the parties
seems to have closed, but it is rumored that on ac
count of letters which, have passed between the
two seconds ether Meanies may \ be appre
hended.
I give you this resume as I gather it from va
rious sources, without vouching for Its entire cor
rectness. There is great belies in this community,
and I will not be surprised if serious complications
Nem in aonsetliente of this unfortunate affair.
Notwithstanding the constant vigilance of the
Washington polloe;assisted 'by the Vnite4 States
marshal, none of the movements of the" friends of
MUM. POTTER and PRYOR were disoovered.

of John °epic, wait commenced. Thom e on was in
the dook, as well is James Miller and Washington
Radix, one of whom has been found guilty of mur
der in the first and the other In the second degree.
Messrs. Cassidy and V. o.,lirewster represented the
prisoner ; Distrlot Attorney 'Mann and C. 11. T.
Collis, Esq., the Commonwealth. The principal
reasons for the new trial offered by Mr. Cassidy
arc : The alienage of Mr. Aaron Israel, one of
the jurors; the separation of the jury before the
verdlot had been rendered, and after-discovered
evidenoe
The deposition of Aaron Israel was offered by
Mr. Cassid. The deponent testifies that ho was
one of the jurors engaged in the trial of the cense ;
that he is an alien, having never been naturalised,
never having paid a tax, and never having voted;
that he was born in London, England, and came
here in 1848; that he did not and does not know
the Rrisoner t and never spoke about his alienage
in hie presence. The Bletrict Attorney objected
to the reception of this deposition on the ground
that a juror who has been engaged. in the rendition
of a verdict in which he agreed cannot afterwaide
be permitted to testify to any matter to impeach
that verdict.
After argon:ten/of counsel on this point, Judge
Thompson said that the ease being one of such
greatmoment, the court, although not satisfied as
to the propriety of admitting the deposition, wqald
yet, reserving the right to treat it as having never
been read, if they thought proper on a further in
vestigation of the matter, permit it at present to
be read. The deposition was then road.
Mr. Cassidy . then read the deposition of Messrs.
JaILUME. Dave and Others Mr. Dovir, who is a
shoemaker, residing No. 1118 Anita street, de posed .
'that he was at the O ro the night Jelin Came was
shot; he said a man with a light.oolored coat fired
two shots - ' and then ran away ; the deponent than
followed t he man who fired, with his eye, sums dia
. tame, and upon Corning around in a low minutes
and looking in the direction from which the man
had run, he saw some one being attacked with a
fire horn; deponent has known Thompson six or
seven 'years, and ho is positive it wee not he who
fired the shots and run away.
James Gillingham being duly sworn according
to law, deposes and says: //reside at No. 241 Comb
knot; I am a carrier of one of the daily piping;
I do not know Robert Thompson, or auy of his fa
roily; I never taw him, to my knowledge; I am
in no way, either as runner or member,.conneattid
with the Moyamensing Rose Company ; I am the
janitor of the Public Law Building, in Fifth etreet,
and have been so from the fi rst of April, 1859; I
was attending to my duties as janitor clueing the
time of this trial; the jury occupied rooms in the
' upper portion of the building; I- generally got to
the building from 6 to 7* o'olook in the morning;
on ono of these occasions, while the jury woe there,
1 I sew a person whom I have every reason to he
rileve wee a juryman in the case of the Common
wealth vs. Robt. Thompson ; it was either en the 2d
or 3d of February, in the morning ; I saw the per
son in the vestibule of the ground floor of the build
iug ; moist his colleagues were near him ; nor of
ficer; he was in conversation with a lady near the
inner green door leading into the street ; one side
of the main door of the streetwas }vide open ; the
only - tart of the conversation I heard was ps saluta
tion of "how do you do?" or something of that
kind; I ain't toll how long they were iu conversa
tion; white they wore conversin g I passed into th e .
survey department, an d remained there a couple
of minutes, and passed back into the law depart
ment; they wore still there conversing; I re
mained in the law department some three quar
ters of an hour; when I came out they wore
gone ; where they went to I do not know ;
this was before• the verdict was rendered;
but I believe after the case had been given to, the
jury; I saw the same woman on Monday morn
ing, the oth of February, standing on the front
step; she not been in the building; I believe
I would know the juror 111 wore to see him again ;
I did not communicate this fact until the Saturday
night after the verdiot.; the juror thet I speak of
wpm not In custody or charge of any Ober ; there
wee 00 otHoer in sight ; the juryman canto from the
stairs leading to the part of the building where the
other jurors were.
- -In another deposition; Mr. Gillingham deposes
that he bee since seen Mr. Edward Borgeshenner,
one a the jurors in'the case, and he is the indi
vidual referred to as having a conversation with a
14 1 .,
Mr; Cassidy argued the various reasons for the
new trial as here assigned, at some length.
' During the progress of the argument, Judge
Timeopeen Old that in the opinion of the court, if
theleota,set forth in the deposition Were true,
tbeviieres no necessity for further argument. lie
untreed that it would be better to hoer counter
teettuliv on the part of the prosecution, for the
PuTowslinvalielating, if possible, the effect of the
evaerle,..e' tiered for the defendant. '

Con. The national 'debt ii stated to amount to .£3.3,-

it to at least .X4E4000,000. The revenue for 1803-9 was
£1.048,160, which would leave for current expenditure,
after paling interest on the existing debt, £1,113460
But the actual expenditure for the same year was £3,-
973,131. Assuming that the annual interest was in
cluded in this expenditure, there remains for current
expenses £4,983,131, showing a dofioit of 1:1,829,470,. or
almost one-half the revenue.

CITY„ ITEMS. •
THE BUILDING BILLSON.—We are reminded, by
.the fair weather of the past few days. end the work of
demolition whieh a progreaeinainvarious parte of the
city, that the building season is neon us. -We will take
the liberty. in this connection, of suggesting the import
ance of supplying new dwellings with the best cooking
and beating facilities. There have been vast improve
ments made in these' departments within a few years,
and so important have these features ,become in dwell
ings; that the renting and - sale of them now, depend
largely upon their being " up to tke times" In thine gar
tinnier*. We hive one former ocesaion spoken in sP
proVing terms of the celebrated patent gas-burning
ranges of Mr. James Spear, No. 11.16 Market street, as
being in all respects the moat desirable, Cooking-
Ranges en use. Recent testimonials in their behalf,
from a multitude of sources, which have route
under our notice, have strengthened our conviction
of the truth of this estimate. We have Ourselves read
a number of letters recently received by Mr.. Spear.

an object, we are safe in saying that the articling here

and general convenience.
An ITER' you ran LADIES.—We hive already
endeavored to advise the ladies of our city, through the
columns of The Press, of the fact that the Messrs. Oak
ford, under the Continental" Hotel, have_lllll.lo. dad
in preeentintr an establishment in all remnants worthV of
their attention and patronage. In addition to their hat
anti for branches, in both of which their reputation is
unrivalled, they have introduced into their s'egant new
emporium three distinctive ladies' departmental, 'which
for completeness and novelty must very soon become
the most attractive shopping centre in our beautiful
atty. Of these we may amnia first their branch. (which,
in keeping with all the others, is elegantly fitted up.)
devoted to the sale of Ladies' and Misses' shoe'. In
this they have achieved, in fact; what on our bonding
fashionable business avenue hai bang been - ts nubile
want.hTo meet this most successfully, they have spared
no pains in presenting to the ladies what we believe to
be the meet oomplete arsortment of the finer grades of
ladies' and misses' shoe. to be found in this country.
their entire stock being either of their own importa
tion. or manufactured eipressli for them by the most
experienced and competent workmen in the United
States. It is already conceded that their shoes are the
hest wearing and neatest-fitting made.
Another department; In which mothers. we are cure,
will be particularly interested, is that devoted to
Misses' and Children's Penny Hate, Boys' Cape, Ladles'
Riding Hats, Gloves, BuflniWhiCe, et, cetera; .In this
we may safely ear, that all the aboiCest articles that the
markets of either this country orEuropertflbed,May be
toned in greatest 'variety. Then, again, Parasols and
Silo Umbrellas also, constitute with them a speciality, in
which is embraced a rare variety of rich and beautiful
things. Taking this great Emporium as a whole, it is
indeed a most unique establishment, and it is not cur
prising, therefore, that thousands of ladies should now
be flocking there daily to inspect the new goods in their
several departments. We may state, before elating.
that the superior facilities of this firm for transiting
business on an extensive scale, being their own menu
falterers and importers, enable then), to sell at prices
much lower than many others in the trade l and upon
the whole, we feel that we Gould scarcely do a greater
favor, or confer ,a more real benefit upon our lady
readers in want of any of the articles we have here re
ferred to, than'by honestly advising them of the pro
priety of visiting - Oalifords.. We may add, in concha
mon, that the encouragement of an enterprise of this
mat nitude is really a matter of public interest, as it is
to men of Mr, Oakford's class that Philadelphia is
mainly indebted for her position as a manufacturing
and mercantile city. .

ing. southwest corner of Tenth and Chestnut streets.
This unique and, as we are happy to know, highly sun
,nessful establishment, has had an existence of several
years, and has, in fact, beonme an indispensable institu
tion. As their energies are entirely directed to the ma
nufacture and sale of &ovate', goodi, they have ef
fected a revolution in this branch of the AO/114 depart
ment an many of our first families, who In former yearn
were obliged to shop for materiels, and then Inn the
risk of having them spoiled in meting. The anocetig
which these gentlemen have achieved is hence well de
served. and we presume it Is no unfair inference that
they now " net off" more juveniles in gracefully-fitting
suite annually than any other establishment in the coun
try. , .

Safe vu platted vim SO •by M feet, far stories, beside

the wind drove the flames, during the conflagration,
from the front thready to the rear. When the Safe fell
to the basement, a large amount of large burning tim

the brick wall fell upon the timbers. The heat of the
hot bricks and burning lumbers was so intense that no
effort could remove the Safe for sixteen hours. We can
conceive of no severer test than the one thui Rafe
pained through. All its contests tem voltirely "rotated.
