We have of late been called upon to chronicle a num-of daring burglaries, but in point of rare skill in ihla villainous profession one perpetrated during Wednesday nicht last, though rather unsuccessful, stands foremost, the scene of the nefarious exploit being the new depot buildinw of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, on Camden street, between Howard and Eutaw streets. From the appearance of the premises when the affair was discovered it is supposed that the perpetrators had secreted themselves in the building during the day and commenced operations as soon as the premises were closed and all engaged there had departed. By means of a false key they had, after obtaining an entrance to the room occupied by J. I.Atkinson. thetreas- a stated amount of salary to be paid them at alL times referred.

Mr. Ford presented the petition of S. Cleveland and others, asking the re- moyal or abatement of a nuisance on aa alley at Ilillen and Exeter streets, in the shape of a steam engine referred. Mr. Handy presented the pe- tition of Col.

J. A. Weston, of the 53d regiment. remonstrating against an appropriation bei a given to any delinquent military corps. Tw companies he states now applying for the anaual appropriation have failed to parade as the law re- Suires and are in effort disbanded referred.

Ir. Harvey called up the resolution approprlat- ing 51,500 to tunnel Chatsworth run at Hambnrg- adopted. Mr. Forrest, from the commit- tee on claims, reported a resolution to pay Peter Son S50 Ci to reimburse them for repairing the wall of Chatsworth ran. binding iiicii piuprnv, auvjueu.

Mr. Wilson, from the committee on claims. reported a resolution adverse to the pe--: J-tition of the trustees of the North Baltimore SU- i tion, Methodist Episcopal Church, asking pay.

ment for damages to their property. Mr. Forrest, from the minority of the same committee, re- ported a resolution to pay the trustees of tha North Baltimore Station M. E. Church $1 ,009 for damages to their chapel at Bond and Chew streets, caused by the alteration of tho grade of thestroet laid on tke table.

The resolution making provision for the removal of the of fice of the mayor and tho bureaus of the several city officers in the present city hall yesterday passed both branches of the City Council, and will doubtless receive the sanction of the mayor. It proposes that the buildings on Holliday street some time since purchased by the city as a location for a city hall, and now occupied by Messrs. George Brown and Hugh Gelston as dwellings, be prepared for the accommodation of the mayor's oflice and the offices of the register, collector, comptroller, appeal tax court, city commissioner, board of health, Ac. In fact, it is proposed, we believe, to-make preparations for the accommodation of the entire corporation except the members of the City Council. We regard this as the entering wedge for the erection of a new city hall as originally contemplated.

The City Council cannot be so far separated from the officers of the corporation when in session. The Extra Dividend Case. The petition of certain scocanoiaers or tbe B. a O. R.

The present is only a preliminary inquiry as to the legal right, at this stage of the proceedings, to admit the petitioners as defendants.

The Reorganization of the Water Board. The committee of conference of the city council last evening reported an ordinance in the first branch to reorganize the water board, almost identical with the one previously acted upon, and on which the two branches differed relative to amendments. The ordinance reported last evening was passed by ayes 14. nays 5. It retains the present water board till March, 1853.

The second branch have yet to act on it. Inqv.esu Coroner Stevens was called on Wednesday to hold an inquest on the body of a white female infant, apparently two or three days old, which was found in a segar box in Eastern Potter's Field. The body was clothed. There was a cord around the neck, leaving the inference that it had been choked to death. The jury rendered a verdict of death from maltreatment at the hands of some person or persons unknown.

Another Telegraph. On the application of Mr. J. Ilopkinson Smith, the city council, on certain conditions, have given him the privilege of pla-cin? a telegraph wire from his iron works on Whetstone Point to his oflice in this city.

The steamer Asia arrived on the 16th. The Indian, from Portland, arrived the same day. The political news is unimportant. The Paris correspondent of tha London Times sap that the King of Prussia had sent new instructions to the Neufchatel conference to the effect that the re cognition of his rights to sovereignty in Neuf- cnaicuis tne express conauuu oi ms renuncia tion of that sovereignty.

Large numbers of war junks -were collecting for the purpose of attacking Hong Kong, and some tears were entertained Dy me en account of the smallness of their land forces; and an application was made to the Governor-General of India for a reffiment, which was refused.

3Ir. Kalloeh. Boston, April 1. The trial of the Rev. Mr.

Kalloch for adultury was continued to-day at Cambridge. E. B. Bailey, one of the proprietors of the Lechmere House, resumed his testimony from yesterday and occupied the stand for several hours. The gist of the testimony was, that suspecting something he took measures to have a peep in the private room engaged by Mr.

Kalloch, when he and his female companion returned from the lecture. This was accomplished bv a large key forcing an aperture at the top of the door, through which could be seen the bed in the room ar.d a portion of the floor. The bed was not disturbed by the defendant, except to take from it a pillow, when the witness says the parties laid down on the floor together, but in a part of the room rather put of the range of his peeping hole. The witness could not testify to the direct act cf criminality, but repeated the disgusting conversation, which he alleges the parties indulged in while on the floor, with other Incidents which he thought injurious to the reputation of his house When Mr. Kalloch called for his bill witness charged him five dollars, which was paid -without grumbling.

Samuel R. Giddings, an omnibus fare-taker, who alternated with Mr. Bailey in peeping into tbe room on this interesting occasion, corroborated the preceding witness. Mr. Steen, of Brattleboro', Vermont, said to be the husband of the lady implicated with Mr.

Kalloch, was in court very near to that gentleman, and occasionally -conversed with bim-r- It would seesn that the crentleman is satisfied that his wife is blameless, and the testimony relating iu nucgcu ui imiiuuriy appeared to niaxe no unfavorable impression upon him. Those portions of the evidence describing the alleged endearments of the loving couple seemed rather to excite merriment than otherwise. It is stated that Mr. Steen volunteers his presence to testify that were it not for severe sickness his wife wok 14 add her testimony to that for the de- xeiise. The trial will occupy several days.

It certainly is "important if true." It says tbe schooner E. Brooks, Capt. Robertsi which sailed from Oreytown on the 19th for New York, put into the mouth of the Cape Fear on Tuesday evening, in a leaking condition. Among her passengers are Edward Carter, David Williams and Michael Riley, three of Walker's men. The news they bring is somewhat later than that received by the Illinois, at New Yorki a few days ago, and is to the following effect: On the 14th ult.

the'Costa RicaRs having been reinforced by the addition of a thousand troops from Leon, and a considerable force of Salva-derians under Gen. Cabanas, ex-president of Honduras, determined upon attempting to force Walker's position at Rivas. Attack after attack was made and repulsed with great loss on the part of the assailants, who seemed to have struggled with unusual energy, rendered confident, no doubt, by their overwhelming superiority in numbers, and animated by the hope of being able to put an end to the war, Although successful in repelling the attacks made upon them, the already feeble ranks of Walker's army were rapidly becoming thinned, and the physical energies of the men sinking under fatigues and privations unrelieved by rest or refreshment; and it was felt that this state of things could not much longer continue. To add to the difficulties of their position, their ammunition began to fail. It was finally determined to retreat from a position no longer tenable, and endeavor to reach the port of San Juan del Snr, on the Pacific, by Way of Rosario.

During the night of the 16tb, with the main body, now reduced to soane three hundred effective men, boldly pressed forward in that Either by accident-or design our. informant does not know, bnt somehow, simultaneous with the evacuation of Rivas by Walker, and the entrance of the allies, that city was found to be on fire in a great many places. The chief point, however, frora which the conflagration spread, was a narrow calle or street, leading into the main plaza or public square. The houses, composed of a sort of frame-work of reeds, thinly daubed over with a species of mud, and covered with thatched roofs, dried to tinder by a climate in which rafn Is almost unknown, burned with great rapidity, and large bodies of the assailants, becoming involved in the narrow and tortuous streets, stifled with smoke and enveloped in flames, lost their way, and numbers perished. It is probable that this circumstance favored "Walker's bold movement.

At any rate his march to Rosario was unmolested. He had before taken the precaution to send bis sick and wounded to that place in advance. Our informant, with some others, in the melee and confusion became separated from the main body, and instead of making their way to Rosario, and thence to the Pacific coast, started for San Jorge, distant some four miles, and thence alonsr the lake shore, about fifteen miles, to Virgin Bay, where they seized upon a boat and passed over to San Carlos, the outlet of the San Juan river, on the southeastern extremity of the lake. From this point they made their way, partly on foot and partly by canoes on the river, to the Atlantic. A rumor had reached them that Walker had succeeded in getting safely to San Juan del Sur, on the Pacific, where he had seized some shipping, whether with a view of awaiting reinforcements from San Francisco, of making a descent on some other point of the coast or of returning to California is not known.

"It would seem that the policy of the allies has lately been to interpose no obstacles to such of Walker's men as desired to leave the country. At least the party who came down to San Juan can account in no other way for the ease with which they effected their retreat from Rivas to that point. The MrsBEE in Washirgtoj? Couktt, Pa. Further Particulars. We yesterday announced that a cold blooded murder had been committed in Washington county, on Sunday night' evidently for the purpose of obtaining a large sum of money supposed to be In possession of th victim, who was a respectable farmer.

The Pittsburg Post has the following additional par" ticulars: It seems that Samuel H. -White, of Chartiers township, who formerly resided within two or three miles of the village of Venice, had recently, purchased a farm from Mr. James Allison for tliat he had removed his wife and two children to their new home about a month since; tfcat ne was to mate a payment to Mr. Allison about the first of April; that Mrs. White, being unwell on Sunday night, got up about 2 o'clock, leit ner nusbana asleep, ana went into tne iaclc yard; that he heard a noise, ran into the kitchen, and soon after saw two men come into the room where her husband slept; that -she, filled with terror, flea to Mr.

Allison's, about nan a mue distant; that she soon returned, with two of the Allisons, aud found her husband dead in his bed, his bend having been literally crushed in with an axe taken from their own wood pile: that about $700 were taken from a drawer, and 850 left un touched in Mr. White's eoat: and that the chil d-en-remained-unhurt in a little bed in their father's room. Intense excitement followed the announcement of the murder and armed men rode in all directions on Monday. About seven-o'clock Monday mornlns. a man named Baldwin, who fhad left Washington on 'Sunday, night at eleven o'clock, and who was seen to flee from a house 'in Mid-dletown.

about eight miles distant from the scene of the murder, was pursued and arrested. He preved an alibi and was- discharged. When asked why he fled at the sight of the officers, he said that he had whipped "his wifeon Sunday "evening, and thought that they were after him for that. His story was "found to be correct Although diligent searcH was made, no trace of the heartless assassins dciild be found up to the time our informant A correspondent of the Washington Tribuna who visited the scene of the nrurder, gays: i The murdered man was lying on his bed in the same position was when he received the fatal blows, either of which was sufficient toeause almost instant death. He seemed not to haveeve moved or been conscious of pain; the deed was executed with dispatch and terrible certainty The pillow of fSe'bed on which his head rested, ar.d tbe sheets and the bed-clothes around, were literally covered with clotted gore.

-The blood spurted around in all directions, bespattering the head, posts of the bed, ceilings and walls, and was even traced to a bureau four or five feet distant from the bed. On the floor at the foot of the bed laid the fatal axe. besmeared with blood intermixed wilh tufts of hair from the poll to the tip of the handle. Along the handle could be seen impressions of the murderer's fingers where he held it while he dealt the diabolical blows. Mr.

White was a young man, much esteemed in the neighborhood where be came from, and his untimely end will be regretted by a large, number of friends. He leaves a young wife and two small children to deplore their loss. Proposed Sbttlxmeht in ViaoixiA The proposed plan of Mr. Thayer, of Massachu-setts, for colonizing the waste lands of Virginia by free State men is ridiculed by the Richmond papers. The Whig says: "It is an amusing project at- present, but if it should be attempted to be carried out which it never will it may become decidedly tragical.

At all events. rt are ready to wager a fine suit of black that the notorious Thayer never sets foot upon, our soil himself for any such purpose. if he should, we expect to meet him at Phil-lippi."

This lock was broken, as if with a hammer, which secured them full possession of the vault, and in which they doubtless anticipated finding store sufficient to remunerate them largely for the risk they ran and their trouble in gaining admission. In this they were, however, sadly deceived, as after overhauling and turning out the contents of all the drawers, they secured only a roll of bills which they, at the time, no uouoi inougiit valuable, but which, in fact, contained only some $60 upon the Millington bank and some $25 on the Havre de Grace bank, both exploded institutions.

The discovery- of the building having been burglariously entered was made by the private watchman between two and three o'clock this morning, as he was returning from having aroused one of the baggage masters, who usually went on the road at this time. Seeinar the window of the treasurer's room open bethought it somewhat and immediately went into this building and passed uptotha room, which he found in the greatest dirorder. A rope was attached to the knob of the vault door and leading out the window, and by made their escape, but the watchman was unable to say whether the rope was hanging from the window-when be first discovered it open or not. In their hurry to get away the parties left behind a brace, oil can, feather, articles, we believe, generally used by burglars in their depredations.

Mount Washington Female College. On Wednesday last the winter session of this insti--tntionwas closed with appropriate exercises. The two previous days were occuoied with the usual examinations, and Wednesday, the 1st was set apart exclusively for music and the reading of compositions. Notwithstanding the unpropitiousness of the day, the hall was well filled with spectators, who seemed to be delight ed with the entertainment. The music was equal to anvthinjr of the kind we have heard on a simi lar occasion.

Among the performances were the overture from Allesar.dro Stradello, by four performers on two pianos, Misses Shriver, Hook, Shiiley and Colliflower, and the song of "The origin oi me narp," a duett, arranged by Prof. Hubert, and accompanied on harps by Misses Pettlbone, Pyfer, Gambrill, Timanus. Gibbons and Skinner; together with "Hear Me, Norma," duett, sung by Misses Harper and Zacharias. The parts, too, assigned to Misses Michael, Cramp-ton, Troupe, Davis.
