Funeral of De. : Willi ah Darlington, of Wjist Gh KSTKH.—The funeral of Dr. William. Darlington took place at two o’clock last Sunday afternoon. The character of the late deceased, and hiß eminent worth, were sufficient to make the cere monies of deeply, sorrowful and widely-extended in terest. The, following testimonial will,’- perhaps, give a better idea of thiß than any mere descriptive wording: * : At a meeting of the-vcßtry of the Ohurchof the Holy Trinity, West Cheater, Pa., April 25,18G3, the following testimonial was ordered to be placed upon the minutes: The Ves*ry oftlie Church of'the Holy Trinity,'West ' ■Chester, Pennsylvania, desire to place upon choir,mi nutes a record 'commemorative:of their 1o v e andjr eue ra tio n. for the life and character of Dr.' William Darling *. ton, who form arly twenty-five years has been a mem ber of their body, and for a longer period one of the moat •'devoted amPfaHliful friends of this church:- The death of this eminent Christian geutleman occurred at his resi 'dnnnrv jn this borough, on Thursday morning last, April .■‘23; 1863. He was born in the township of Birmingham, ■ Chester county, on the 2Stli darof April, 1752, and, con-, seauently, would have completed ms'Blstyear,in a few days, fie bad passed the -measure of time divinely - -allotted to man, and.likea sheaf fully ripe, wa&ready to he gathered Into ,the garners of. the treasure-house of God.

His servant, who having , vanished his course in faith, does now rest from, his la- : bora. ; ResoTke; That . this Chnrch has lost one of its earliest and^mdst 1 constant friends; one whose generous and : hearty support of all its interests continued' to the last of ills life. . • • • ‘ Resolve* That.as testimonial ,of high regard for our ; distinguished friend and brother, that portion ofthe church-within thechancol be draped in mourning for the : space of thirtv days v f : ' Resolve, That a copy of these resolutions be placed in the hands of bis family, by the secretary, and that they be publi- hid. : The funeral services were very short and simple, . being restricted to the reading of a portion of the regular Episcopal burial service. This was read by Bev. Mr. Newton, pastor of the West Chester Epis copal Ohrnoh.. The funeral cortege then proceeded to Oakland Cemetery, where the last sad ceremonies were performed. The death of Dr. Darlington Is one whose effect, will be widely anil severely■ felt. His friends in this city, at West Cheater,:and clsc where. have deep occasion to lament the lobs of one so useful and so good. Iktebestikg Scene-at the Corn 'Ex chanok.*—Yesterday, at the Corn Exchange,'Mr. John Patterson, a pronoinentmember of the Liver pool Corn Trade,*was introduced by Mr. A. G-.

Mr. Ofcttellsaiil that Mr. Patterson was the first mairto' convince the people of Liverpool that Jame 3 Spence, was .an/accredited agent of the rebels. He was one' of the committee to,, welcome the American contri bution for: the retief of Lancashire, and' he had al ways taken the deepest interest in the progress of liberty in America. . .. Mr. Patterson then rose, and was received with 'cheers/ He expressed;his grateful feelings at re ceiving so formal yet'hearty a reception. He did not come here to.seek applause, but-in liis heart of hearts he felt he must support -the cause of liberty which*was at stake. -If he had acted otherwise than he had done, hewould have proved recreant to the cause of his fellow-men. He.uid not come with any intehtion to take part in American politics ; the Amerioan'peopleknew how to manage their own aflairsTjest. But' he would say that, eince the Pre sident’s Proclamation of he had taken the deepest intei est in the course of-public opinion in - England. Since his arrival in America-he had felt . the deepest satisfaction at eeeing the unanimity of the people in support of liberty and the Union, und he declared that the people oi-England were .with •the North. * He had never seen ;a man who would dare to stand up and boldly advocate negro slavery. In England everybody was opposed to slavery. Some opposedit with a “but.” but the majority were agaiDßt'it without any _‘‘buts. n , , In closing, Mr. Patterson spoke ofthe gratitude of the Lancashire people ; not alone for the flour which had been sent, but for the heartfelt sympathy manifested in the generous gift. The address was'frequently interrupted by np , plnuaCj and at the close three hearty cheers were given forthe speaker. A, -OAR.

Disappointed? Robbers.— At an early hour, yesterday morning, the banking-house of Jay Cooke &. Co. was entered by forcing out a panel in a door opening upon the stairway leading to the upper part of the building. Ab nothing very valuable is kept upon the premises over night, the robbers only got a few cigars for their trouble. TU 33 POLICE. [Before Mr.' Alderman White.] Juvenile Thieves—A Hearing and aLccturc* Four little boys had ahearing last evening, before Mr Alderman White* on the charge of stealing four sheep . from the. stall of Mrs. Jane Maheiv No: 76 South Second street Market. The sheep were taken about four o’clock ; on Saturday , afternoon; and was so boldly done that persons passing by did not scarcely suppose the young sters were stealing the meat:-' The lads, gave the names of Joseph Lloyd, Mark Silverthorn, Michael Harrington,' and M. Deboss; The average age ofiheseboys was only ■ about eight or line years; one of them had not yet reach led the. age of seven. . The meat.thus stolen was sold to a woman calling herself Bridget McAllister, who keeps a soft of boarding house on Penn street, below Lombard. ISte gavefbe cliDdren seventy*fi,ve cents - for it, though it cost Mrs. Maher fifteen dollars. With the money . ;thuB obtained, tickets were purchased for admission into one or ;two of the concert saloons, on Saturday evening. ■ Mrs. Maher, tbo lady who:had: been, “testified • that she left the market-house shortly after two o’clock on Saturday:afternoon, having locked :all her meat in the stall, with her scales, weights, moneydrawer, &c. Every now and then, for five months past, her stall had been robbed. On one occasion her account-book was taken, which was a loss of fifty dollars to her. The little hoys told a plain story about the whole af fair. They Baid that an older boy had what he called a : v **jimmy,“ withwliich-ihe pried th,e lock off in a mi nute. The mtat was then taken in bags, or carried openly, and sold .to Mrs:, McAllister. The robbery was made known to Mrs. Maher on Saturday eye . ning, and she-had a warrant issued .by the-worthy "magistrate .of the Fifth; ward, who placed- it into theshanda. of Officer Miller. The young scamps lived in Belief alley, and the officer not finding them at home, thought the; be?-t thing he could do was to watch for them. ' About midnight they approached their'homes, when ho ti ok tfiern into custody. These are about all The facts that developed at the hearing. Theoflice was filled to suffocation with. parties and parents. • One of the mothers claimed that her boy was not seven years old, and, therefore, did not know.it was a crime to steal. ‘ The alderman pronounped a severe though just lecture .to the parents of the juvenile prisoners. What kind of parents are you, that you could quietly stay in your houses, and go to sleep when you were aware of the absence'of your little children? Abroad after night-- fall; going to concert saloons that might well make mo-- rality shudder, and coning home at late hours, after - revelling in sin and iniquity ;upon means obtained ,hy thieving. Shame ought to Crimson the faces of every oneofytiu. Society has rights, and one of those rights. . Is, that parents should pay proper attention to their chil dren; for certain it is, that if you do not use proper re . straining inllaences over y our children, they- will, when iheygrow a little older, become burglars and murder ers,and end their lives in the prison or on the gallows. Society must be protected. The boys, except Deboss. ; must enter bail iu $BOO each, to answer. As for you, Mre. : McAllister, yon must enter bail in the sum of $l,OOO, to answer the charge of receiving stolen goods. The case ' of Deboss will be held under-advisement. He seems to be entirely too youug to comprehend what thieviugis. ..Thus the case was broughfto a close. The remark of the-Alderman were timely, and may do some good. ' There are other parents in this city.who seem to let their chi drea.iunloose about the streets: They would profit somewhat, if'they give heed to the remarks of Mr. -Al derman White. .

Clearly the v Tight to'rmovo dues not depend upon the extent.ofpvd jfress which the raiise has made in the State Court when the removal is attempted. - To my mind, it is plalu that - Congress intended, 1 at the instance of a defendant, to transfer from the State to the Circuit Court, any'sult or prosecution of the nature described, at any stage o e its progress.' No matter In what condition it may have been when ths ac.tbf Coniii'esfc w»s passed, ii cjmmenced be fore, an Jan appearance had been entered, a petition fa/ its removal-was authorised at the next se sion court, or if judgment had been obtained, an appeal was - allowed during the term at which it was Big- ed, or a writ of error within six months sifter its r 6 edition.' Buoh‘ * 'is the letter of the act, as well as its clear spirit, and' like every other act, it must be construed so as to darry out its spirit. One mode of removal was prescribed be fore judgment Two other modes were pointed out fora removal after jndgmonfc;•' But when removed, the. cause is to proceed in the Circuit Court in the same man ner as if it had been brought therein by origi nal process. And the act contemplates that, in the cases-of . which it the trial of both the. law'and • the * , facts' i thall be couducted in the Circuit-' Court, untiammelled by anything the State Court may , have done. If,the suit between the present parties,' then, \ wns pending when this 'petition was fiU'd, as it unques .tionaoly'was, and-if it belongs to the cases, which Congress had in view.'it is no sufficient reas6u for my.refusing to allow the removal.prayed for. and to stay procecdirgs hero, that there has been a verdict of a jary, ; but no judgment. Not* is it part of mv duty to; inquire how the Circuit Courtis to proceed in the performance of the'dutiee imposed upon if by’the act'of Congress. Yet, : if the facts and thelaw cm be tried thereafter judgment in a dtato Court, I do not sec why they may not?be tried ' as well after .verdiot. and before;judgment.Au appeal from one court to another is certainly as effective before as it is after an.adjudication. But. without invading the' province of the Federal Court, it is enough for ine now to say that, m my opinion, there is nothing in the state .of the record-in this coUrt. which 'prevents a removal of the casein its present condition after verdict and before judgment. The' time and the mode of removal are pro vided for in the act of. Congress. .. • - It isiiextinrged that the case sought to be removed' does not belong to the class of cases for which provision was made byUheact of March 3, 1863. It is said no act of Cmeaningofthis provision ’ " Not in which a - plaintiff comes into court to. demand something conferred ’upon* him by law." When a defendant- seeks protection undersuch a law, it is a case, arising under itl/Tnis was the construction adopted, in the infancy of the Constitu tion, if the.2sth section of thej'udiciary act, and without 'it the main object of this.clause would-be defeated.
