DESTItf CTIOlf OF Till POPE' OrrRRtNO i TO THE WAaUINdTON MONVMkiNT. About 12 o'clock last night the sentinel near the Monument became conscious of the rubbing of something against the side of his watch box, he at first thought it was bis faithful dog ; but on attempting to open the door, he found it seoured by a rope, which had been drawn tightly around the box. Immediately after, he perceived that some persons were pasting paper over the win' dows. lie sailed to them, and asked what was meant, and was told to hush. He asked if they intended to injure him and received the same reply as be did to all other ques (ions. . He then heated an iron poker in his stove, and pressing it through the door, burned the rope in two, and made his way out. He aoon found that his dog had been poisoned, and was dead, and on examining the ground carefully, he discovered that the beautiful pieces of marble that had been presented to the Monument Association by the Pope, bad been broken into a thousand fragments. ty e nave no iniormanon ot whom suspi cion rests tipon in connection with this deed We aie informed that a very' large number of persona visited the Monument yesterday, and not one-third of them registered '.heir names.
