Asylum.
The annual report of this institution
for 1S52 informs us that the number of
pupils is larger than at any previous per
iod. During the year 33 puppils 10
boys and 17 girls were admitted; and
25 pupils 11 boys and 14 girls were
dismissed, and one girl died. The pupils
have enjoyed their usual health. At the
close of the year there remained in the
institution 143 pupils 78 boys and 65
girls 97 being supported by the State of
Pennsylvania, 14 by Maryland, 10 by
New Jersey, 4 by Delaware, and 18 by
their friends, or by the institution. Of
those supported by Pennsylvania, 22 are
from Philadelphia; and of those supported
by their friends, or by the institution, ten
are from Pennsylvania. The increased
number of applicants will require an ad
ditional appropriation from the commonwealth.

The Philadelphia Tragedy.
Examination a?id Commitment of Arthur
r Spring to answer the Double Murder.
i We stated in yesterday's News, that
the son of Arthur Spring, the suspected
murderer of Ellen Lynch and Hannah
Shaw, had made disclosures which went
strongly to implicate the father. Wo
. might have said further that the state
i meut of the son, if believed, would fasten
( the crime beyond doubt upon him, and
convict him of perpetrating one of the
i foulest human butcheries that has ever
been recoided. Much as we dislike
to give the character of that statement
with the other facts elicted, lest in
justice should be done to the miserable
accused, who is entitled to a fair and an
impartial trial, we nevertheless deem it
proper that the public should be put in
possession of the truth at once, as such a
course will do more to allay excitement
than would from their concealment. Ar
thur Spring underwent an examination in
the County Prison yesterday afternoon,
before Aid. Isard, and was represented
by J oseph M. Doran, Esq. Mr. Reed rep
resented the Commonwealth. The first
witness examined was Patrick Maguire,
the keeper of the house-in which the ac
cused boarded. He testified in substance,
that on the night of the murder, Spring
went to bed at about eight o'clock ; he
could not say whether he was out after
that or not; the witnesses had seen some
gold pieces in Spring's possession, but
they were small pieces. Maguire admit
ted on the cross-examination that the pri
soner had been speaking of buying him
out, and that $400 had been named as
the sum, which was to be obtained from
a friend. Mrs. Maguire testified in sub
stance to seeing a $5 gold piece in Spring's
possession. She knew nothing more bear
ing upon the case. Jane McKenny, a
girl ten years of age, living with Magurie
testified that she was up in Spring's room
on the night of the murder at about 10
o'clock, and that he was not in bed, she
had no light, and the night was cloudy
but she was satisfied that Spring was not
in bed. Charles Iseman, a Jew boy, was
examined, and satisfied to selling shirts
to the son of the prisoner who gave him
in payment a 8-10 gold piece. Young
Spring told him that he wanted the shirits
for his father, who was sick. Officer Mc
Gee, of the Southwark Police, testified to
arresting Spring at the house of Maguire,
and to finding two bloody shirits of his;
also to seeing blood upon his coat cuff
and knee. He told the prisoner what he
was arrested for, who stoutly protested
his innocence, and said that the blood he
got upon him in a fight with Carroll.
John Carroll and his brother William
were examined, and testified to going to
the ball on the night of the murder, but
they knew nothing bearing upon the pris
oner. Bartholomew Lynch, the husband
of Ellen, one of the victims, was examin
ed and testified to speaking of the money
he had, about $30 in gold, in the presence
of Spring. The money obtained through
young Spring, he thought, was the same.
Arthur Spring the son of the accused, was
now introduced, and disclosed one of the
mostfearful tales of blood that was ever lis
tened to. Young Spring is of rather pre
possessing appearance, and is apparently
sixteen years of age. He manifested but
little repugnance to testifying against his
father, though in so doing he knew he'ws
pronouncing his doom. He first identi
fied the sheath of the dagger which was
found under the arm of Mrs. Lynch, as
his, said that it was a present from a friend
in Washington, and that the father had
borrowed it from him some iwo or three
weeks since. He then said that his fath
er had spoken to him about the money of
Lynch, and that he expressed his deter
mination to get it. He had gone there
for that purpose on Tuesday night, and
had got into a difficulty with Carroll, and
that in going out he had changed hats.
He went again on Wednesday night, but
found that there were too many there for
him to attempt it. He remarked to Mrs.
Shaw that ho would come the next night
and sec them, but she said that he need
not, as Caroll and his wife were going to
the ball, and there would be none home
but herself and Mrs. Lynch. (It was in
this way that he learned the females
would be alone.) Young Spring went on
to say that on the night of the murder,
his father, who had been out, returned at
about 11 o'clock, and told him that he
had murdered the d d b s; that they
were nothing but w s The father had
gone to the front door and knocked, and
was let in by Mrs. Shaw, upon whom he
commenced an attack, and after stabbing
her several times, and when she was near
ly overcome, Mrs. Lynch came down in
her night clothes, and interfered, and
made efforts to prevent him from mur
dering her sister. He then turned upon
her, arid stabbed her a number of times;
but she fought'like a tiger, and it was
difficult to subdue her that he at last
got her under the settee and he thought
ho had killed her but to his surprise she
rose again and resumed the fight. The
attack was first commenced in the entry,
and was continued to the back room.
after he had murdered the women, he
went up stairs and opened the trunk with
the blade of the dirk, and in doing it, the
point broke off. He got the money, came
down stairs, attempted to set fire to the
house. A portion of the money was giv
en to the sou, and one of the pieces (a 10
coin) was passed for the shirts. In tho
course of the narrative, tho son was fre
quently affected to tears, as were many
present. He had several times to suspend
it, so much was he overcome. The pris
oner exhibited great nerve, and denied
.that he had anything to .do with the crime
imputed to him ; he charges his son and
two others with perpetrating it. The tes-
timony of young Spring being concluded,
Mr. Reed askedfor the final commitment. $ 1 .OOO T?1RW iv
of the prisoner to answer, which was done. ; The above reward will be paid for th

Considering that Francesco and Rosa

That Francesco Madiai, availing him

endeavored, though without success, to
detach him from the Catholic religion;
gave him, in concert with his wife, a pro

in Italian
That he has jnade to other persons
proposals tending to show the superiority
of the religion called Evangelical to the
Catholic religion, counseling such persons
not to hear the priests, reproving the
worship of the Virgin Mary and of the
Saints as an idolatry, and especially
turning into derision the pious custom of
burning tapers before the image of the
Holy Virgin rejecting the doctrine of
tho Real Presence in the consecrated
Host, characterising as an insult towards
God intercession by the Virgin and the
Saints, rejecting the authority of the Su

of the feast-days other than Sundays,and
abstinence from certain
inventions of sinful men

Prayer, printed in London by the Socie

trine, in which it is said that Purgatory

Considering that what has been said
by the defense on the subject of libertyof
conscience and of religious tolerance is
foreign to the question, seeing that the
first is not attacked when citizens are
called to answer for their exteanal acts,
and that tho second is protected, instead
of being violated, when one preserves an
other from the danger of seductions and
abandonment of her religion.
The Courts declares that tho crime of
impiety has been committed by the Ma

tevant, the author of the resolutions in
favor of the Broadway Railroad, the 26
Aldermen who voted for it in defiance of
Judge Campbell's injunction were ar
raigned on Saturday. Judge Duer pro

authority, nor one more dangerous to the
existence of Constitutional Government.

garded the most flagrant, ho was senten
ced to 15 days, in the City prison and to
pay a fine of $250 to the City Treasury,
and. to pay to the relators 102 and some
odd cents.
The other Alderman and Assistants,to
the number of the twenty-six, were each
fined $250 and costs, with the exception
of Aid Doherty, who had voted against
the resolutions, and Aid Smith, who made
an apology to the Court. Theso were
