"Fthike" Kkvokted in the Heart of tu Citv.
As the (act that oil has been stracit on the banks
of the Wissabnkon has slowly dawned upon the
ninda of our citizens, it has affocted some ol them
in a mannor that is altogether unaccountable. We
have been unable ai yet to discover, it is true, any
cases ot the genuine mmia a oleo; but now and
then we have encountered one in which the symp
toms were of a very alarming, though not altogether
Of a serious cbaraottr.
Such a case tell undor our observation this morn
ing. A gcntlt man rushed into our olllco in a very
bewildored condition. His lace was flushed with
excitement; great beads ot perspiration stood upon
bis brow; bis breath came at short and hurried
catches; u.s speech vas wild and incoherent. Brand-by
we pat heied tne burden of bis mission. It
was to tho effect that, in tae very heart ol t o city,
in the cellar ol uu humble nioobanic, whilo
laborers were engaged in nidkmx RJinu al
terations recently ordered by the Heath
authorities, oil oil had been strut:' 1 Ibe
cellar bed been complete y overflowed by the
oxaginous compound, the laborers had been driven
from their work, the proprietor had gouo ha f wild
over bis great good loriune, the ueigubordood had
bo en entirely upset by the announcement. Such
wa the marvellous stoiy to wlnca we were lorced
to libten.

without diflictiltv, and a reconnoissauce made in
full lorce. But, alas lor the resu.t ! I he proprietor
was fojnd seated canity at his accustomed labor;
two lazy shop girls were lounging in fiout of the
door, whilo within tho cellar l.alt-a-dozon loose

composed of n.ud, water, and soap fat in about

tne four-n count ol the miormat on, to wit: The
light of the doiondanu to nso thestreets of the o.ly
for the purio-csot their railway, without the oon

Court wry : "We aro ol opinion that tho pica shows

toads, to wit, graded and paved streets in the city of
I'lmade phia, for purposes other than the purpose of
crofsinr tho some, without fi st obtaining the con
sent ot ihe parties owning the same"
The eitv of 1'hiladelphia wo hold o oe such party
withlu the meaning oi the Act of Asemhly. Judg-
ment wnl tliereloi he given lor the Commonwea th
on the diminrer to the deendaut's fourth plea"
"J he demurrer to the sixth plea is sustained. Be
yond doubt the dclendants were incorporated as
l'assenger Hallway Company, and uothiug mjro.
Aotbingin any act of Aisembly indcate an inten
tion to con ler ut ou them general railroad privileges
and a distinction ha boon recognized between rail
losds as a class, and pawenci-r ranways " Tne aot
of lh68, incorporat ng the rimad-lpi la Plank Uotd
Company now bv change of name and additional
legia ation, tho Con pany defendant aud tne sub-e-qoeut
aois are here rescinded Ihe act ot lioS
enacted, that it should be u?od exclusively witn
torse power, aud for passenger travel.
"It nave them 'power to convey passengers' over
their improvements, and to puroliaso equipniuuts lor
said railways, and it enacted that ' no ireight or
burden trains or locomotives shou'd be permit ed to
rass over the same." But uowhore has the prohibi
tion against freight or burden trains boon takon off.
Throughout all the acts lroin 1853 down to the last
tho deleudantn aro treated as a railway company tor
the aocomiuotlation ot paKscngor travel alone.
"if tl e prohibition again nusiug locomotives lias
been removed, it was by tho act presouted to tho
bevernor on the ti'b of April 1861, aud that otny
authorized the use of s earn passenger cars. VVhether
the oetendan's are entitled to the privileges ot that
act wc sbail see hereatter. Conceding tor the pre.
sent that they aro, it noes not give permission to
run freii'ht or burden trains, or tetiaiii-pon any
thing Imt passengers. It does not ohaiige tne pur
poses of their creation, and convert them into a
ra road company.
"At mutt the steam pnonpcr cars which they may
use, lnu-t be such as can be used upon what are
commonly undoi stood to be passenger rati vay.
ll.eie is still no authority lo construct a railroad.
It iollows that with powers to ouiid pason
gcr roilwas only, thiy must uso a rail appropriate
to fcuch structures. It is uotonoos that a rail suita
ble lor ti e transport of freight, or for the pas
sage of burden trains, is a much greator publio
inconvenience in a street than is a railway
utiialiy employed for passenger transportation on
street railways A powor to suhject the publ o to a
slight inconvenience cannot be ued to cause greater.
N e find nothing in t'.o uctt of Assembly, roierrad to
in this plea, which gives to the deloudaut tno right
to coi.sliuct a lailroad suitublo tor burdou and
ficight trains drawn by locomotive, or to lay down
rails suited lor such ftrucitires. or ti lay down any
rail except i-uch as is suited to what la commonly

t'e defendant, to use steam passeugcr cars, and de

4r KsssIoun-Judges Pierce aud Ludlow. l'he
first thing before the court was an application re
questing tho Court to nx a day for tho hearing of
the arguments lor a new trial iu the case of Maurice
Abrams, convicted of a charge of murder, in tua
first degree at the last Oyer and terminer term of
this Court.
There are papers of tho greatest importance to
thedtleudantin the hands of the captuin ot a Bri
tish vessel now out on a cruise iu the Mediter
ranean. Tho captain was ordered to leave a copy of
tl.ese documents at th" Custom House at St. John's,
Kew Brunswick, but this he tailed to do. Hs was
also ordered to leave a copy with our British Con
sul; but in tins he also failed. The captain ot the
vessel, it seems, is dead, and the whureabouts of tho
et-sel which contains these dooumuuts is un
known. The Court said that as these papers wore of yital
importance to tho defendant, ti.ov had (seriously oon-.
tidored the matter, and had continued it thus tur;
but that they would not yet tlx tny day until tua
Commonwealth shon d look further into the matter.
tnthe part ol the Commonwealth there was an
application made lor the continuance ot the ease of
W illiam Leary, on plea ot tke absence of an import
ant w.tnesf, a physician.
The defense stated that defendant has been in
pribon lor about two and a half months aud that ho
basa wiio and chi dren dependent upon him tor
support, and that be is, therefore, anxious for tho
trial of bis cause.
Tho Court continued tho case until such a time ag
the presence of the Commonwealth's witnesses QOUtol
be procured.
'li e Commonwealth also applied for a continu
ance of ihe case of James MeLiioau, upon a plea
of the absence ot the sume physician whose ahsouoe
caused the connnuauoeof noase of Wt I am Leary.
There being no homicide cases reauy lor tnal to
day, the Court of Ojer and Terminer adjourned at
II o'clock ; and the Court ol Quarter Soasiouc beaiol
several ca-es of uo moie than ordinary importance.
George W. Ashton and William Vincent pleaded!
guilty to a charge ol burglary, in entering the houso
ol Mary l.itel, and ot the larceny of goods to th
value ot 223.
A witness te-tified that he arrested these two wor
thies on last Friday evening; (hut he louud upon
tbotr persons pawnbrokers' tickets by whioh he
recovered goods belonging to Vrs. Litel to the value
of about twelve hundred dollars; goods belonging
to a Mr. AlcUralb to tho value of seven hundred
dollars; and goods belonging to anotti r lauy to the,
value of one hundred aud twenty-five dollars. M.
AlcUraih's residence was. at tio. 1016 .North Tenth

two weeks, and when he returned he found ail the
inner doors broken open, bis bureau drawurj, thrown
around, were rautucked, and canned truits aud pre
serves daubed all over the wal's.
A similar, it not worse scene, was presented in tho
houro of Mrs Lilol.
I he burglars stale that they weie born and raisod
in Philadeli hta, and that they are respectively aged
twenty aud tweuly-ono years.
Ihe Court gave them a severe reprimand, and
sentenced them to the l.asiern Penitentiary lor the
penod ol Bevori years.
After the wmtiing-np of this aflair the Court
adjourned until to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock.
