Return of the Committee of Defence from
Washington.
CORRESPONDENCE AND CONGRESSIONAL ACTION.
General Pleasonton, chairman of the joint cum
initiees upon the Delaware defences, boa returned
from Washington, having accomplished in part the
purposes of his visit. It seems that a groat deal of
callousness boa been manifested upon the subject of
our helplessness, particularly by the State authori
ties. So far as known, the efforts of the latter have
been expended in promises. Hendrick B. Wright,
of Lucerne county, a member of the Military Coin
mittee of Congress, desired from Genotal Totten
some warrant for reporting favorably upon the
matter of appropriations for our State defences.
The following is General Pleasonton's
REPLICATION TO THE ENGINEER BUREAU
WILLARD'S HOTEL,
IVA9HINGTON, D C., January 2, 1862.
To Brigadier General JOSEPH G. Torrest, Chief
Engineer U. S. A., Washington, D. C.:
GENERAL: In pursuance of the objects of my
mission, and in accordance with the wishes of the
government of the city of Philadelphia, I have
caused to be presented inthoMouse of Representa
tives a bill making appropriations specially for the
defence of the river Delaware and the harbor of
refuge created by the Delawaro Breakwater.
This bill has been referred to the Committee on
Military Affairs, and to-day, in conversation with
the member of that committal) having this subject
in charge; in explanation of the objects of the bill,
he expressed the wish to be informed if the Engi
neer Department had recommended the construc
tion of defences on the land to cover and protect
the said breakwater and its harbor., As in my con
versation with you on that subject, a few days
since, you expressed yourself in favor of the con
struction of the said land defences for the said
breakwater and harbor, will you, in your reply to
thif note, be so good as to express your opinion -and
recommendation thereof in writing, so that in that
form they may be presented for the consideration
of the Committee on Military Affairs in the Rouse?
Accompanying I submit for year information a
copy of the bill for the above-mentioned and other
objects, as the samehes been referred to the Com
mittee on Military Affairs.
In connection with this subject, may I so far
trouble you as to ask to be informed what number
of guns it is intended to mount on the various har
bor defences in and around Now York harbor and
an . the East river, ne well as the number of guns for
the proteCtion of Boston and its vicinity ?
If it will not incommode yon I will esteem it a
particular favor to receive your answer today.
I have the honor to be, General,
Very respectfully yours,
A. J. PLEASONTON,
Chairman of the Joint Select Committees of the
Councils and of the Board of Trade of the city of
Philadelphia.
REPLY OF GENEOAL TOTTEN
ENGINEER DEPARTMENT,
WASIIINGTON 2 Jan. 3, 1802.
To A. J. Pleasonten, Esq., Chairman, &0.,
Hotel, Washington, D. C.
61R : I have just received your letter of 2d inst.,
and hasten to reply.
The construction of suitable works of defence
for the harbor of refuge made by the Delaware
breakwater, in Delaware bay, is fully approved by
thin Department.
The sum of one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars is a suitable and moderate amount to be ap•
preprinted, as neon as possible, for the commence
ment of such defences.
The defensive works now complete, or under
construction, for the protection of New York, in
cluding the inner harbor, the approach by Long
Island Sound, the approach by the Narrows, and
the anchorage near Sandy Hook, are ready to
mount about pee thousand guns. The number will
be increased us further progress may be made.
The defences of Boston harbor era now ready to
receive three himdred and thirty guns. The num
ber will probably be increased, by spring, to four
hundred and thirty, and further, as labors shall
pro
v the honor to be, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
Jos. G. TOTTEN,
Brevet Brigadier Gen and Chief Engineer.
IMPORTANCE OF A FORT AT THE BREAK
WATER.—Tho following extracts from a letter of
General A. J. Pleesonton, to the Hon. William D.
Kelley, of the House of Representatives, on the de
fences of Delaware ricer and bay, exhibit the great
strategic importance of the breakwater at Lewis
town:
READQUAII.TERR ROME GUARD,
CITY OF PHILADELPHIA,
January 4, 1862.
To the lion. irrnt. D. Kelley, House of Repro
sentattves,Washington, D. C.
Div DEAR SIR: 4 4 Allan' MO hero to ten
der to you my sincere acknowledgments for tho cour
tesy extended to me, personally, and also for the
attentive and respectful consideration bestowod by
you on the objects of my mission to Washington,
(In the defences of Philadelphia, and its river ap
proaches.) In my interview with Mr. --, he
told mo that be would recommend to the Military
Committee to report the bill you had introdueed
for the defences of the river Delaware, &0., in
creasing, however, the appropriation asked for
the fortifications to bo erected for the defence or
the breakwater and its harbor, as (lon. Totten,
in his letter tome on the subject, thought that the
sum of $150.000 was too moderate.
These appropriations, however important to Phi
ladelphia, are of vital consequence to the Govern
ment of the United States in its occupation of
Washington, and in its military and naval opera
tions in Eastern Virginia, and along the Southern
seaboard.
A glance at the map will disclose the fact that a
hostile fleet at the Delaware breakwater, with
another in Lynhaven bay, just inside the Capes of
Virginia. would effectually interrupt all communi
cation from New York, New England, and all other
maritime ports, by ace, with the Potomac river and
the Chesapeake bay.
Philadelphia, at the same time, would bo block
aded in its own river, and if, with a land force put
ashore from this fleet, a coup de maiie upon it
should be successful, the war in the South, east of
the Alleghenies, would be brought to a close at
once; and the Government would also bo forced to
evacuate Waebington forthwith, from the impossi
bility of procuring supplies there, as nothing oould
be got from the West by the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, now greatly injured in many places; as
Maryland furnishes little or nothing ; and as the
resources of New York and New England would bo
cut off by the occupation of the Delaware river and
bay, and the consequent destruction of the Chesa
peake and Delaware Canal, and of the railroad from
Wilmington to the Suequehanna river. A large
supply of powder also would fail by the destruction
of Dupont's powder works, near Wilmington.
• There is no point on this continent, at this time,
of such value to the Government of the United
States, nor whose loss would entail such disastrous
consequences to the whole country, in its civil,
military, and naval operations, as the city of Phila.
dolphin.
The occupation of Lynhaven Bay by a hostile
squadron would blockade the sea approaches to
Washington, Annapolis, and Baltimore, and would
cut off supplies to Fortress Monroe and Hampton
Roads; and the surrender of that important fort
ress would be simply a question of time, and with
out Mix a shot, depending merely on the quantity
of provisions and water with which it might be sup
plied at the moment of thuocoupation of Lynhaven
Bay by an enemy's fleet.
These considerations aro so momentous, that I
conceive that it is only necessary to present them to
Congress to insure the prompt passage of the bill
you have introduced, and relying fully upon yodr
most active co-operation in what so nearly concerns
us all, I remain, my dear sir, your much obliged
and obedient servant, A. J. PLEAsottrost,
Brigadier General, Commanding Home Guard.
CHARGE or Ansm—Yesterday afternoon
George Atkinson was brought before Alderman
Loftier on a charge of arson. Dr. Blackburn, the
Firo Marshal, testified as follows : That Atkinson
lately,. boarded at 1327 Ma.soher street, and was
compiled to leave his boarding-houso on Account
of being suspected of robbing several of his fellow
lodgers. lie left in a bad humor and took lodging
in the neighborhood. Two nights after this, some
person or persons entered a •stable attached to the
first boardinghouse and attempted to destroy it,
lighting fires an four different places,
which were,
however, extinguished before much damage had
been done.
What rendered their attempt more fiendish was
the fact that the boarding-house was partly built
over the stable, and the lives of several persons
were placed in great jeopardy by the flames which
burned up through the floor and filled the room
with smoke, nearly suffocating several persons who
'were there sleeping.
The Fire Marshal proceeded to state that there
was no direct evidence to implicate Atkinson in this
attempt at arson; but, from his having made threats,
be was arrested and held while the matter was be
ing investigated. During this time, it was remora
bored by Mr. Blackburn that a warrant had been
issued for the arrest of a certain George Atkinson
some years since. 'The police 'records wore exa
mined, and the following facts discovered:
About four years since Atkinson was employed
as a bricklayer by Dr. C. F. Jackson, who was then
constructing a now hones in Fourth street, above
Willow. Owing to some trifling dispute in regard to
wages be was discharged, and left in a sullen mood.
' On the afternoon of the Bth of June, 1857, he
was seen to go into the unfinished house and come
out again, and in a few minutes the place was in
ilamee. The property was, however, not entirely
destroyed.
A warrant was immediately issued for the arrest
of Atkinson, but before it could boserved he had en
tered the navy and was off for a three-years cruise.
On being questioned, yesterday, ho admitted frankly
that be was the man in question, and that ho was
also guilty of the crime oe arson, in setting fire to
the premises of Dr. Jackson, as aforesaid. lie was
committed to answer the charge.

DISTRICr Counx—Judge Stroud.--James T. Car
ter vs. Joseph B. Conover and George Dorf, trading,
&c. An action on a promissory note. Untried.
NISI Pnius—Justice Strong.—Josiah G. Jones vs.
Edwin Kirkpatrick. This was an action to recover
damages for an alleged malicious prosecution. The
case grew out of the prosecution instituted by Ed
win Kirkpatrick, in 1858, in the Quarter Sessions,
against Robert B. Kirkpatrick, Sarah Kirkpatrick,
his wife, Mrs Yardley, and Josiah G. Jones,
charging them with a conspiracy to kill and mur
der by means of a poisoned pie. It will be remem
bered that on the trial of that case, Mrs. Yardley
and Mr. Jones were acquitted, Mr. and Mrs. Kirk
patrick were convicted on some of tho counts in
the indictment and acquitted on the other ; and on
a motion to arrest the judgment on the ground that
the counts on which Mr. and Mrs. Kirkpatrick
wore convicted were the same as those on which
they were acquitted, and the court sustained this
position, and the judgment was arrested.
In the present ease the allegation of the plaintiff
is, that Mr. Edwin Kirkpatrick knew him to be in
nocent of the charge preferred against him. In the
Quarter Sessions it was charged that Josiah G.
Jones (colored) carried the pie, which, it was al
leged. was received at the house of Mr. Edwin
Kirkpatrick, and which it was further alleged con
tained poison. The plaintiff, yesterday morning,
introduced the deposition of Margaret Dunagao,
formerly a servant in the house of Mr. Edwin Kirk
patrick, who deposed that she received the pie in
question. There was a light burning in the hall at
the time, and she saw the man who handed tho pie,
and it was a white man, and not colored; after
the prosecution had boon commenced against Mr
and Mrs. Robert Kirkpatrick, Josiah Jones
was brought in frent of the house of Mr.
Edwin Kirkpatrick, and the witness was asked if she
recognized him as the man who had brought the
pie. She replied (to Mr. Edwin Kirkpatrick) that
he was not the man, that it was a white man. Sub
sequently the witness was taken to Judge Kelley's
office for the purpose of identifying two white men
as the party, and she at that place declared that
they 'were not the men. She also denied that Mr.
Robert Kirkpatrick was the man who delivered the
pie ; Rivas after this that Josiah Jones was included
in the bill of indictment, and the allegation on the
part of the plaintiff was, that this was done in order
to prevent him from becoming a witness for Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Kirkpatrick.
Mr. and Mrs Robert Kirkpatrick were examined
yesterday, as witnesses, and they both, in the most
positive manner, denied having over sent, or esused
to be sent, a pie to hip. Edwin Kirkpatrick's house,
by Jones or any other person.
Monica Morris, formerly a servant in the family
of Mr. and Mrs. Robert B. Kirkpatrick, testified
that, in 1858, she resided in New Jersey, and that
before the trial in the Quarter Sessions, she was
waited upon by Judge Kelley and Detective Rustell.
Judge' Kelley produced a pie plate, and asked the
witness if she recognized it as ono belonging to Mrs.
Robert Kirkpatrick. She examined it, and stated
that it was not a plate belonging to Mrs. Robert
Kirkpatrick. The plate was exhibited to her three
times, and she persisted in her statement. While
with Mrs. K., she bad a full opportunity of know
ing the character of the china ware in that house.

of the Fiji group, the mariner is cautionetio pay groat
attention to the lead, and to keep a good lo okout for dis

much intercourse with the Fiji groupgby means of their
largo canoes, state that they are aware of the existence
of many shoals between Tougatabu and the Ono Islands,
but are unable to define their position. The only bank
of which there is any reliable Information, is one of some
extent, having 22 fathoms water on It. It was discovered
in August, 1860, by three American whalers in company,
and the mean of their observations place it in let 22 43 8,
