They effected their entrance by climbing in through the skylight over the door, which had not been pulled down, and must have been a parly of boys, as the aperture was too narrow to admit ot the passage of a man's body through it. They stole about fifteen dollars in loose ch inge from the till and carried off every cake in the Btore. They bad an easy access to the parlor Igtrora the store, but were evidently deterred from attempting anything lurther by the noise of the bakers at their work.

Mitchell, alias July, the black dwarf, lodged in the Guardhouse on the charge of breaking into and robbing Mr. J. H. Happokll's store at the corner of Meeting street and HoiIbeck'.'i alley, were brought be? fore Trial Jun! ce Levy yesterday morning lor examination. The prisoners had been confined In adjoining cells at the Guard h Otis'?, and while talking had a quarrel, in which they had in? dulged in several hard threats ngainst each other. Mr. Happoklt u-stified as to the robbery and breaking into lils store, and also identified the gun found at Wrigai'; house as the gun Btolen from him. Thomas Wright testified that, previous to Thursday, July had promised to lend him a gun with which to go shooting on Saturday, and that on Thursday night, about 10 o'clock ora little after'bell ring," July had brought him the gua in question and lent it to him. July contradicted himself several times, and in various statements, but at last maintained that he had got the gun from William With? ers, a colored youth, staying lathe yard 01 Mr. D. T. Corbiu, and that he had carried the gun to Wright about 7 or 8 o'clock Thursday evening. Before his Incarceration, July swore that he got the gun ?rom Toby Brown, but now denies this, and says that Toby ls the witness who saw him get it from Wither?. Toby Brown swore roundly that he never saw the gun before; had not met July since the robbery, and knew nothing about the mat? ter. William Withers testified that he knew noth? ing of the gun, and bad not seen July for two months. During the examination, it came out that Withers had two pistols in his possession, which are supposed to have been stolen In a former burglary at Mr. Happoklt's store. Under these circumstances, Toby Brown and William Withers were held for further examlnation,untll this matter could be looked into. July,being the person to whose possession the gun was traced Urst alter it was stolen, aud who told several ilifferent stories about it, was committed to ?all In default ol five hundred dollars bail for irial at the next term of the Court of General Sessions. On his way to the jail July became commu? nicative, and suggested to bis constabulary escort that he would like very much to have private rooms at the hotel. This aversion to company was explained on the arrival of the party at the jail. July was an old "spot-boy for the deicCuves, and many of the prisoners had been caught and sent to Jail by lils aid. They owed him a grudge not to be forgiven or forgotten In a hurry, and would have liked no better fun than to have their diminutive enemy in their midst. With dwarflike cunning July bad foreseen this In all its colors, and hence bis demand lor private rooms, which demand Became more urgent as he surveyed his glaring lellow-lodgers. "July,"' Bays the jailor, "I ;uess there would be troubl'. If I lelt you with the boys;" and much to the chagrin ot the lat? ter, and to Juli's delight, he was taken up to a lonely apartment in the tower.

Werner, it his iron works in Meeting street, and the )leces which will form the lower part of lt. night have been seen yesterday lying in the rard. Hie whole affair will be fifty feet in leight, and weigh twenty-five hundred lounds. At Its juncture with the steeple will >e a heavy cornice, and from this will rise the Irst form of the spire, made of iron, and ihaped like a vase, the outlines being made by ?andsome iron scrolls bulging out at the base, ind sweeping tastefully up to the neck of the rase, and then tailing over. The second form viii be similar to the first but smaller, and hey succeed each other, lessening In Bize, intll the full height is attained. The light? ning rod passes through the centre of these, ind, coming up through the topmost vase, viii sustain the vane. This ls lo consist of a rift arrow ten feet long and beatl fully featber ?d. The whole design is the conception ol' he venerable artificer himsell,and promises to lo Justice to his taste and skill. The Iron icroll work, beaten Into shape by his own lands, ls delicate but strong, and forms an mlline at once handsome and tasteful. It ,vas at first intended to place upon the steeple i heavy carved cornice, but the design, when Inlshed, f proved too cumbrous. The com? mittee have now left the matter with Mr. iVerner, and in good time he will show them jomething worthy ol' the handsome church ind bis own art. Hotel Arrivals-September 19. PAVILION HOTEL. W.
