ft apposed Mnrrierer Arrested.
Yesterday aflerneon man waa committed by
Alderman Redman, In await the requisition of the
Governor or Maryland, under circumstances that
leave no doubt of hii being Adam Horn, the mur
derer of hi wife, in Baltimore county, Md., the
detail of which horrid tragedy were given in the
papera of this city yeiterday morning. He waa
r rested by officers Wolfe and Philips, at the ho
tel of Mr. Zimmerman, In Letitia court, where he
tame on Monday, and remained ever since, under
tin assumed name. From the evid nee before the
Alderman, it appears that on Wednesday he went
a a scrivener wi'h the deed of tract of land, Ac,
Vitus t on the Hanover road, Baltimore county,
Md., which was conveyance by Andrew Gra.
bier to Adam Horn, dated June II, 1842, and de
Sired a deed of conveyance of said tract, made to
John Storch, of Baljimoro county, Md. His re
quest was complied with, when the scriviner took
him to the office of Charles Gilpin, Eaqr, Com.
missioner for the State of Maryland, for the pur
pose of having the paper duty authenticated.
From Horn's manner and unsatisfactory an
swers to Mr. G's enquiries, he declined sttesting
the document, unless Horn would produce a citi
zen to vouch fur the correctness of his story, Ac.
Horn, it appears, afterwards called upon the Rev.
Otho II. Borgess of the Holy Trinity Church,
corner of 8ith snd Spruce streets, who, with
Horn, subsequently waited upon Mr. Gilpin,
when the deed was attested, and witnessed by
Mr. B.
Yesterday morning, Mr. B. upon reading the
account of the murder, was struck with the cir
cumstances above recited, and from the corrcs.
ponding appearance of Horn with the description
of him in the papers, immediately suspected him
to be the perpetrator of the awful deed. He forth
with gave information to Alderman, Redman, who
at once sets his officer after Horn.
When arretted, he asserted that he was a shoe
maker. On the way to the office, he threw away
tailor's t himble, and afterwards a pair of scissors
were found on his person. The clothes he hd on
end coat found at the Hotel, are the same as de
scribed. In his hat there was found a German newspaper
published at Hanover, in York county, upon the
margin of which was written the name of "An
drew Helmes," or "Helmet," which fact sevms to
implicate him in another murder some years since
in Ohio, where the murderer was published by the
name of Afidrew Hellman. The prisoner scemrd
greatly agitated throughout, but more particularly
in relation to being sent back to Baltimore. From
all the circumstances of the case there can be no
doubt that he is the perpetrator of the hoirible act
of butchery. A'orfA American.
Another Supposed Mnrderrr Arrested.
Yesterdy afternoon, upon information given to
the police officer by the mate of the ship Monongj
hela, officers William Young and Bulkley procec
ccd to said ship and arrested a man calling him
self William Mason, on suspicion of being concern
ed in the murder of Mr. and Mrs. Parthemore, near
ntirrisburg, on the morning of the 11th inst. Ma
son, it scemt, during the afternoon made applica
tion to the mate to lake him to Liverpool, being
willing to be stowed away anywhere ; at the same
time giving him a sovereign and some silver, a- '
mounting to $7,50.
Previous to all this, the Recorder had received
an afTid..vit made liefure Justice Betn of Reading,
and a warrant for the arrest of Mason, and officer
Murphy from the knowledge he possessed of the
facts, gave information In the officers of the vessel
to lo.'k nut for such an individual.
This morning Mason was taken before the Re
corder and had a hearing, and committed for a fur
ther bearini;. From the testimony given, it appe irs
that Mason is the individual who was arrested on
Saturday nesr Hants' tup, and after a hearing be
fore Justice Weiss, was dischargad which certifi
cate was found on him.
A Robert MeWlvvrter who is employed at the
Pe iding Railroad depot at Reading, testified, that
on Monday evening he first raw Mason at his
boarding house, the White Horse Hotel, in that
place, that there Mason got into conversation with
him in relation to the murder, and aid that he was
the wood-chopper lint had been arrested and dis
charged. Mason appeared lo labor under considerable ex
citement, and desired to sleep with the witness
which was assented to. They prrceeded to bed in
the dark, snd Mason then said he was In trouble and
wanted to tell him a secret, which he enjoined him
not to disclose. McWhorter agreed to see him safe
out of Reading ; having no idea as he says, that the
fellow was about to confess the commission of a
murder. He then gave McW. a paper which was
the certificate of discharge from Justice Weiss, Mc
W started down stairs lo the light for the pur
pose of reading it, and in a moment found that Ma
son was at his heels, manifestly afiaid to stay a
lone. Subsequently he confessed that he murdered
Mr. snd Mrs. P. with a bludgeon of wood, killing
the man In one room and the wire in another, and
robbed the house of only f 20. He said he wanted
to gat to Ireland, where he would never commit
auch an offVnre again
On Tuesday morning, Mason Was put by Mc
Whorter upon theeara for Philadelphia, and soon
after disclosed the facts to several gentleman con.
nected with the Railioad, when the affidavit waa
made and warrant issued by Justice Ben.
Mason is distressed looking creature, evidently
ignorant and debased, and about lhirtyight yeais
ofsge. His manner waa eonfuaed and his stories
contradictory. Blotches are upon his pantaloons
and .hid which have the appearance of blood. Ms.
on states that he eurne from Ireland in July lat
From all the facta disclosed there is but little doubt
that he is the murderer. The amount of money
found on him here and at other places make about
the amount stolen from the house of Mre. P.

Parody upon Parody
Oh ! no we never talk in French,
For German's all the rage ;
Our lipa are now forbid to read
Of French one single page,
I cannot say -'-Mon cher ami,"
But "J, mein lieber Freund j"
Alas I that ever such a tongue,
Was made to vei mankind.
I dare not sitjh ''Pcnsci moi,"
But nswl"Ach denk an mir;"
Or lisp I, "Soyca vous fidcle,"
I tremble lest they hear.
And if "N'e m'ouhlii 7. pas" slips out,
They say "Verges mich nieht ;"
Such awful words mv jaws will break,
As-Spreicht," and "Slichl" and "Lieht."
And "M'aimet vous" I never hear;
The lime has passed away,
When those sweet accents met my ear ;
Arm' must I "Dcutsch ver steh,"
And if my hand he gently lakes,
My breath I scarce can draw ;
Lest he should say"Sa(r. liebst du mich V
And I should answer "Yaw !"
Katy Old.
Some years ago beneath a vine.
Whose lendrills soft bright roses hid.
I sighed, "dear girl, will you be mine 1"
She said, "yes love !" so Katy did.
I clasped her to my panting hreat,
Nor was the lovet's ardor chid.
She seemed to love to be raressed.
And so returned it 'Katy did !
A blu-h sufficed her pale bloom cheek,
A tear was stsrted to her lid,
Her heart seemed all too full to speak,
She looked a Vssi s Katy did !
Two years were passed in foreign land,
In search of wealth as I was bid.
When I returned lo claim her hand
She proved a jilt so Katy did !
