Eunoan, whose drain occurred in this city on Wednesday, was one of our most prominent and esteemed dozens. He hid h*en rnauy years a resi dent of Philadelphia. H-- was a warm iriend of Eobert Morrik; : the Revolutionary tli.aaoier, and on one occasion obtained the relume of that patriot Iron imprisonment for a very heavy den; by ad vancing the amount. lu the war of 1812, with Great Britain, General Duooau was superintendent of the United States a>mtar\ stores. *nd stationed at the arsenal in Philadelphia. He was also briga dier general Of Pennsylvania volunteers. He was one of Governor Snyder's 8;r*?oi«i aids, anil com.' manded a brigade at Uacnp Dupont, near Wilming ton* Delaware, when Philadelphia was threatened by the approach of the British, before their defeat under Dora Ross, at Btlrimorc. Appointed by President Madison as collector of direct tax for (he Second district of Philadelphia, he discharged the duties of that office without de riving any pecuniary beueflt, dividing the commis sion among bis clerks. General Duncan was for many years a member of the Legislature of Pena* eylvanla. He was one of tbo Inlanders of the Jeffer son Medical College, and f>om its commencement has been a trustee of that icstiruuon. and always evinced a deep interest in its success. For a number of years largely ensageo as an importing merchant, be relinquished business whpu commissioned by President Jackson, Jr 1829. as surveyor *»f ibe Cus toms for the port of PiiUadeipMt, a postwmoh he held durii g the two terms of General Jaokion r s Admin titration. His funeral will take place this afternoon, from bis residence, at Seventh and Wood streets. The S9th Veterans and the Bounty. —The difficulty existing among the veterans of the 29th Regiment P. V., in regard to the Philadelphia bounty, has been settled through the efforts of Co lonel William Rickards, Jr., who so uallantly«and successfully led the regiment on to victory above the clouds on Lookout Mountain. The Colonel arrived in this city yesterday, from Washington, with the necessary documents to have the u boys” accredited to the quota under the next draft in Phi ladelphia. The result is the companies will receive the bounty—three of them to-day, and the remainder, probably, tomorrow. Tne regiment will remain in this city to take part in the great parade on the 22d instant. There are now, all told, about 700 in the regiment, 35301 d veterans, 63 who have s?eu|two year’s service, and about 300 new recruit*—but many of .them hav ing seen more or less service at various times during the rebellion. The regiment will proceed to the enoampment at or near Chester, on Tuesday next, and there remain until early in March. Colonel Rickards, we learn* is in the enjoyment of excellent health. And bis many friends say that hia obanoes for the appointment to the position of a brigadier general are riecic* a-y good.

Rtsolvedt That a copy ol the above be forwarded to our representatives at Washington. Tne resolution warvgreed to. Mr. Abmutromg (O ), on leave, said this, of all other matters, is the most important tnat nai ucoun red wi hln the last fifty years. A navy yard that will cost not less than $30,000,000, and will employ not less than 10 000 men per year, la to be located somewhere, and being aware of this fact, knowing that it would be the building up of their town, a lew citizens or Chester have sought, waea this mat ter had been agreed upon by the Secretary of the Navy and others, to obtain the location of the navy yard at that place, and this while we have beeu asleep, He leu the more anxious in regard to it, because be thought there was treachery among some ot those persons who should look to tne interests of Philadelphia. On laat Friday evening tne House Committee on Naval Affairs were brought to tnis city by a member of Congress. Tney ai rived at League Island when the tide was at lower vrater mark. They started down, and arrived at Chester when the tide was high. The Senate Naval Com mittee was also taken down when the tide was La favor of the latter place. Was this management] There are some persons behind this screen deter mining to ruin our project. When tne Oouiinitcee oi Councils visited Washington they were lutormed by a ceitain member of Congress that it was in> jnring the interests of Philadelphia by their being present. We were discouraged in our efforts by some parties on last Saturday. While we were at the Continental we were informed that only a cer tain number of persons would be allowed to go on the visit to League Island, say three members of Councils, three oi the Board of Trade, ana otaers, but we were not to be fraugnt in our purposes. Put all these laots together, and can any candid man deny that there is not a league of persons uuited together to deprive Philadelpnis from this navy yard? Let the people of Philadelphia rise* io their strength and might. Let them form their commit tees. Let the Board of T/ade and the Corn Exchange send their delegations. Let the City Councils send their committees to the hslls of Congress, with a de termination to have this navy yard at League Island. This can be done. In a short time we will hear the news that the navy yard is located there. There is no use of wasting time any lunger. We have a location that is equal and will vie with any other place in the country* We should demand it as a right. We have a claim upon the Government. We should have this navy yard here, aad we will have It* If we all work together in the right manner, Mr. Genmodo (U.) said: *As chairman of the com mittee* he would not say anything about it at pre sent. He was alive in the matter, and was doing ail he could.

Marco Debenediua* alias Louis Bebofs* was ar raigeeu at the Central Statioa, yesterday, on the charge ot the larceny of a couple of diamond rintife, alleged to have been stolen from the store of Mr. Garrett, on Chestnut street, on the Uth Inst. Toe only light tniown upon this affair is slightly circum stantial. The prisoner was arrested betweea four and five years since by detectives Geo. Oallsoan aud Howard Oaritn, who now have him. ta custody. Ha was sentenced to lour years’ imprisonment, aad was liberated on the first of last September. Siaoe that time he has been in WASblngtoo, D. U., and Balti more, in both of which places valuable jewelry dis appeared within a short time past. The prisoner Is a» Italian by birth, dark hair, and a tittle bald; he is lame in one leg, ana walks with a oaue, waea tnkeu into custody he had, besides a large amount of moLey, the following articles: A goiU dog.head whistJe, with garnet eyes. 8 (ii&mond rings, cluster and single* l garnet and pearl nog. 1 plain-gold ring, 18 karats. 1 gold pencil. 1 gold toothpick. 1 ciatoond stud, single stone. Whether the prisooer obtained any of these or all of them in Washington, Baltimore, or Philadelphia, or how he came by them, whether legally or illegal ly, the future alone may dett-nnlne. He is kno wain the police vocabulary as a kk diamond sharp.” On Thursday <ff last wetk he entered the jewelry store of Mr. Garretr, on Chestnut street, under pre tence of wishing to purchase a couple of diamond rings. Two were shown him, valued at $BO aad upwards, He did not mike any purchase, aad finally took his departure. It waa subsequently ascertained that the two riogs that had been shown him were replaced by others of sosreely any value* Informa tion of the affair was left at the deteotive office, and Messrs. Calianan and Carlin at once recognized the individual Irom description. They adopted the ne cessary measures to secure the individual, and yes terday success crowned their efforts. The history of the two rings that were left at the store of Mr. Garrett have been traced somewhat. Tney were made by a manufacturer oooupylng the upper part of the buildir g in whieh Mr. Garrett’s store is located. He sold them to a Mr. Fitzpatrick, who, in turn, sold them to ihe prisoner. The only difficulty in the way of fastening con viction on the defendant, is the fact that nobody can positively assert they are precisely the same rings that passed from Mr. Fitzpatrick to the pri soner This la the legal point upon which the case rests. Mr. Lewis C. Cassiday appearedfor the defendant, ■and suggested his discharge, as there was no evi dence to hold him. Mr. Calianan stated that he had merely introduced ihe prisoner to be held for another hearing, at such time when he thought he would be able to procure some evidence. Under this state of the case, the defendant was committed in default of $1,600 to await a hearing to take Diace at 2 o’clock on next Tuesday afternoon. Storekeepers in Washington or Baltimore who may have missed such articles as found upon the person of the defendant, as enumerated above, should confer by letter or otherwise, with Messrs. Calianan and Carlin, of the detective force. [Before Mr. Alderman Hutchinson.} Assault with Intent to Tftil, A young man giving the name of Andrew Toland wm arraigned yesterday on the charge of commit ting an assault and battery upon Police Officer Ste phenson, with intent to Hill* This affair, it is al iened, took place on the night of January 24th, The officer received a severe blow on the head, over the eye, with a black jack, by which a gash was indicted two or three inches in length, and from which he has not yet fully recovered. The accused was bound over in the sum of $i,500 to answer. [Before Mr. Alderman Welding. ] Breach of Ordinance.
