from fainting. The statement he made was in
substance as follows :
The fit her ani son had been living for about
four weeks at the house of Patrick Maguire, in
Market street. On Tuesday night last, the fath
er took the son to Carroll's house, the former
carrying with him a piece of lead pipe, from Ma
guire's the son accompanying him. as he says,
in order to prevent hiin from committing vio
lence, having some suspicion that he intended
to rob, if he got a chance.
On arriving at Carroll's, the boy was introdu
ced to the females, and Mrs. Shaw took him to
her lap. telling him that she had nurBed him
when a little boy mid kissing him several times.
While there the fight occun ed, and John W.
Carroll give the elder Spring a blow in the eye.
which is still discolored. The son says his fath
er attempted to strike Carroll with the lefid pipe
bat that it fell from his hand, and the sm pick
ed it up aud secreted it about his person. They
then left the house and returned home, the fath
er telling him tkere were too many there to get
the money. The next day his father went again
to the house to get his own hat. which he left
behind him. and afterwards he told his sou that
Carroll and his wife were both going to a party
the next night, nnd there would be nobody in
the house but Mrs. Sluw and Mrs. Lvnch. His
father h id learned the previous night that Mr.
Lynch hail X een discharged from the Navy Yard
aad receive It i & pay. On Thursday evening
young Spring w his father in their room about
eight o'clock, when he went to tell him he was
g'ting out on an errand for Mrs. Maguire. His
father then had his coat off, and h-e thought he
was going to bed. The son went on the errand,
and afterwards met certain comrades in Mor
gan's court, Thirteen street, one of w.' otn was
a boy younger than himself, named Quinn.
After returning home at about a quarter of
eleven o'clock, lie opened the back door, on
hearing a rapp'ng, and saw bis father with his
shoes in hit hand. He came in, and gave his
son a number of twenty and ten dollar gold pie
ces, telling him to put them away. He then
toll hi.s son that he had murdered those two wo
men, an I had taken the money from Mrs. Lynch's
trunk.
In answer to his son's inquiries, the father
told him that he was let in by Mrs. Shaw who
opened the back door for him; that a man and
a girl were in the house, but he kept quiet untii
they had gone. He then talked and drank with
Mrs. Shaw, und at last he got her to go upstairs,
and see if her sister was asleep. She came down
ngain and told him that she was, and soon alter
he commenced his murderous assault upon her.
Uefore she was entirely dead, Mrs. Lynch was J
aroused by the struggles of her sister, and came
down stairs in her night clothes. He attacked j
her. and had a most violent struggle Inst ore lie
succeeded in qutvtir.g her. She crept behind or
beneath the settee, in the back room, and seem
ing to be dead, be went up stairs in his stocking
feet, but hearing a noise, he came down again,
nnd found that she had revived. He again at
tacked her with tiie dirk, and finished her, by,
is he said, twisting her neck. He then went up
etairs. and broke the dirk in forcing open the
lock of the trunk, lie then set fire to the house
stating that he burned the en. Is of his fingers in
kindling it. When his son suggested that th
knife would lead to his detection, he said lie had
thrown away the dirk in Gerre street. The
dirk formerly belonged to his sou, to whom it was
civen by a youth at the time he was livin-r in
Washington, and was taken

for his father and himself. He bought two of
large size for his father, oue for himself, and a
pair of stockings, and out of the change, $5 was
paid to Mrs. Maguire for their board, which was
the only money paid upon that account.
On tin cross-examination. Judge Dran, after
putting searching questions to test the correct
ness of hi previous testimony, without produ
cing the .-lightest varionce, asked the witness in
the most solemn manner whether be had not
himself committed tne murders, assisted by
Qninn, bis associate. A most emphatic dental
was returned, and other qnestiius followed in the
same spirit, prompted by the lather, but noth
ing was gained for the prisoner. The witness
asseverated his innocence in the most solemn
and impressive innnne. The last question ask
ed was whether he was not promise I. if he testi
fied for the prosecution, that he should be liber
ated; he denied this, and said the statement was
nade voluntarily, but be burst into tears as he
xclnimed that he would rather have met pun
i Anient could he have been spared his present
disgrace. . .
At this point Mr. Reed interfered, as he had
done several times previously, and resting the
prosecution on what testimony had been submit
td.'the pri one was remand.-d for trial. The
witnesses were notified to attend this morning
before the Grand Jury, wbo will act at .nce up.
on the case, and the trial will probably take
place earlc next week.
Spring has. during his residence in this and
N'ew York City, been frequently before the
Courts on criminal charges. He was, many
Jears since, tried in this city for obtaining a
cask of liquor tinder false pretences, and served
short term of imprisonment. At one time, he

murder of his wife in New York. This is, how
ever, believed to be an error. lie was kuowi.
to treat his wife with great brutality, and tbe
marks of violence upon her person when she
died, led to a supposition that she had been
foully dealt with, but it is Slid this charge nev
er came to a trial.
Lynch, the husband, widowed by this foul
murder, was present at the hearing, and was
deeply agitated while listening to tile details of
the crime as supplied by the younger Spring.
At the conclusion of the hearing. Lynch shook
the witness by the hand, and expressed himself
satisfied of his innocence.

meteiy. west of the Schuylkill, in a lot owned
by Lynch. The first husband of Mrs. Shaw al
so lies there, having been buried there at the
expense of Mr. Lynch.
In addition to the evidence at the hearing yes
terday, is the fact that the wounds inflicted upon
the deceased were left-handed blows, ami that
the prisoner, for the last twenty years, has been
noted for that peculiarity. The damning fact
may also be mentioned that the fingers of the
prisoner still sdiow the marks of the burns re
ceived, Mccordiue: to his own account, while set
ting fire to the house.
The developments of yesterday, our renders
will no doubt readily admit, are most convin
cing with regard to the guilt of the prisoner;
and amid the congratulations at the prospect of
the violated law being speedily avenged, the
promptitude and vigilance of the Southwark
police in securing the jiuilty man should be
properly appreciated, and the credit awarded
which is so justly their due.

The Double Kurder Trial.
The trial of Arthur Spring, f r the murder of
the two sisters, in Southwark, was commenced
Monday morning, in the Court of Oyer and Ter
miner Philadelphia, before Judges Allison and
Ki lley. The most intense excitement prevailed,
and an immense crow assembled in and about
the Court-house. Th.i keenest enriosity was
felt to get a glimpse at fie murderer. He is a
large, stout man. with small eyes, and by no
means had looking. He was smuggled into the
court room, by a device of the police-ofiicers,
one of whom counterfeited Spring, and took his
place in the ordinary prison van. while the real
murderer was taken up, somewhat in advance
in a hack. When the- bill of indictment was
read, he listened attentively, and answered "Not
guilty." Joseph M. Dor.-n. Esq., officiates as
his counsel, while the prosecution is conducted
by Messrs. W. B. Reel and W. It. Mann. The

Reed, was eloquent, able, and impressive

is a
that
h.-ilof ul fact, and Worthy of
consideration
the Indians of Texas are now in almost a starv
ing condition. Wild game, which nffbrds their
only met ns of subsistance, has disappeared ; ami
they are reduced t the necessity f eating their
horses or starving. Persons who hnv, recently
traveled through their country, say that whole
days may be passed without meeting with game
of any description ; and the Indian, feeling
the neglect of the government towards them,
and impelled by hunger, are of necessity bound
to pass the bounds prescribed by the Govern
ment. Hence the recent incursions into the
settlements, and the necessity of the late call of
the Governor of the State for the companies of
rangers which have just been discharged.
