Impbovementb ox Eighth Street.
We resume our running commentary on the
new and valuable lmpioveu.cnts on our great
centre of the retail dry eoocls iralc. We can
only hope to give a description of the most
notable places.
About toe most noteworthy of the Improve
ments tbat are in the square between Market
and Chesnut streets, is toe large store occu
pied by Mr. J. A. South iclt, No. 17 Souto.
Eighth street, nt tiiecrmcrot Shoemaker street.
This place was loimerlv occupied by a small toy
shop, Vupt by a Air. r'razier. Most ot our cltl
pns can ipmeuiber the pIhco as it was. The
whole buildintr, compriBiug tour stones, has
been renovated, at an exiieit-e ot over $;ll)ui), by
the proprietor, Mr. J. A. Southwi k, who -has
occupied the entire bulletins since last August.
The owner, Mr. James Harvey, is aocrut to buy
out the saloon in the rear ot tlie store. Hnd will
knock it into one store, lorming one of tbe
latges-t and finest slire in the street. Atpre
sent the hccommodations in the tirst 3tory are
not as extensive as could be desire I.
Mr. Southwick, it may net be improper to
Ktate, bas improved more properties along
Eighth strpet tban any other man in it. In
business in the street for the past ten or t elve
years, during thai t ine he hm tmprovod four
or five stores, modernizing them, and adapting
them to the advancement of business. In th.s
he has indeed len ot great beuelit to the street,
and has earned well deserved reputation lor
enterprise and business tact that bas placed
him high in the confidence of the people. In
the upper part or the establishment a large
wholesale business is canied on.
Strolling along thro wn Kighth street, from
Market towards Arch, our attention isatonoe
directed to tbe extensive repairs that are being
made in tbe building occupied by William T.
Keed & Co., No. 46. The whole front has been
torn out, and is being rapdly put up in the
most elegant st v ie of v. hite marble. When it is
finished, it will make a vetj beautiful contrast
to tbe splendid brown-stoue eo'iace alongside of
it. Reed & Co. are the successors in business of
the film of Owen, Evans 4 Co., and do a very ex
tensive busme.-s in s.lks, tancy dress goods, and
staple dry goods ot all kinds. The improve
ments will cost at least, $15,u00, and have only
been commenced within the past four months.
The front is well lighted by beauti'ul French
plate class windows, which ot themselves are an
ornament to the street, even if we cast aside all
mention of the gay and brilliant array of rich
and staple goods that are exposed for sale. The
tore intade is very attractive. It is one hundred
and two leet in depth, and lrom twenty to thirty
feet wide. A beaulif il dome and ekyliaht cans
a very clear and mellowed light over the entire
store. The wall? inside are colored ot a light
bluish prey, that adds greatly to the appearance.
The improvements were commenced about lour
months since, and efforts will be made to effect
their completion be ore winter Etta in. It will
then be a most beautiful uod valuable addition
to the many attractions on rbestr?et. The only
drawback that there appears to be in all the
buildings aioug the entire square is tbe want of
beighth that is" so ob ervable on every, side.
We want more ot the high sta'cly buildings that
make crtain squares on Clicnut and other
business streets look so imposing. True, there
aTe ma".y verv elegant places, such as we have
described, which are bighlj pleasing to a criti
cal eye, but thev need the ereat desideratum
size. It is a quet.on, if it were not better
economy to bui.d a hve-dtory bivldinginastrpet
so rapidly improving as Eighth street, rather
than the most elnbora ely nniaheil three-storied
structure. The owners of the building occupied
by Eeed & Co., who were the lormer proprietors,
under the name ot O wen Evans A Co., wi 1 spare
no pains to make the building a model, as far as
the architectural beauty and symmetry of their
place is concerned.
A Novel Banquet. Last night the dele
gations lrom the virions wards couiprwinar the
Filth Congressional District met by appoint
ment at tbe bouse of the Hon. Caleb M. Taylor,
the member ot Concrress elect from that Dis
trict, about one and a half miles from Schenck'a
Station. Each delegation had its own spokes
man to address a congratulatory speech to the
member elect, who responded in each case with
happv effect. After tbe speeches had been made
the company sat down to a noble banquet on
' tbe laun betide of tbe mansion. The most novel
feature of tbe banquet was ilie entire absence of
all kiuds ot liquor, a material tnac is always
considered essential to the hilarity of any assem
blage ot the kind, liut the company present
needed nothing to enliven their spirits, and
everything went off as pleasantly and as happily
as any oue could desire, and tbe company
separated at a late hour.
ADakgkbous Charactkb. The people
in the neighborhood of Tenth and Filbert streets
were alarmed by the sound of a pistol shot at an
early hour this morning. Patrick Lynch and
another companion ol his had cone into the
drinking saloou Vept by a Mr. Miller, in Filbert
street, above Eleventh, about two o'clock this
niorninp. Being in a btate of glorious Intoxica
tion, tbe j got into a disturbance, and Lynch, it
is said, to put a summary end to the dispute,
drew a pistol and discharged it at the landlord.
Fortunately it missed its aim, aid shortly after
wards Lynch was arrested. He had a hearing
before Alderman Jones, who held him in $1001)
bail for assault and battery with Intent to kill.
Cobner Lotjngino. Any ono going
through our city cannot fail to see the immense
number of young men who ate to be seen hang
ing around the corners of the strests. Espe
cially is this the cise In front of the earner
tavern?, and in some t.t those places a lady can
hardly pass by without being in danger of in
sult. There have been several arrests every
day for this offense. At Front and Canal streets
yesterday t o were arrested for being disorderly.
Case of Embezzli me.xt. J. W. Briggs
was aneited at Second and Market streets, on
the above charge, yesterday morning. It Is
alleged that be has aopropriated property to his
own use to v hich he hat no rizhtrul claim. He
was arreted on a warrant from Alderman Wil
liams, b ''ore whom the prisoner had har'n"
and was held to ball n tne sum ot $3J0 to
answer.

Confiscation" or Apparkl. Mary
Ann Roylo, who is an operative In one of the
mills at Franklord, got into trouble the other
evening. She paid a visit to a drinking-saloon
called the Mechanics' Hall, kept bv John Tat
btrt. In Factory street, and imbibed freely and
generously. Owing to her general h'larlous
condition she not only saw things doublj, but,
it is said, she went even so far as to make a mis
take in regard to the identity of objects. She
mistook a shawl, belonging to the wife of the
proprietor of the "Hotel," for herown property,
and made off with it. Being ashamed to take it
back acain, she left it in chartre of a pawn
broker lor a Iciflinir consideration from him, and
availed hersell of that triile. She was, however,
arrested in ber short career ol prosperity, and
brought to trial belore Alderman Holmes, who,
alter a fatient investigation ot tbe laets of the
ease, held her In $500 bail to answer the charge
oflarct-nj.
Convictiox of Bubolabs. Yesterday, in
the (Quarter Sessions, John Mason and (teoree
S. Itoberts were convicted ot a charge of the
larceny of shoes, boots, etc., valued at $300, the
property ot Joseph Ballard, Elirhth and Filbert
streets. One of their former colloagues turned
State's evidence, and tes'ide l that these men
took tbe measure of the key-hole of the street
door when the store was under repairs. Thy
went to New York and manufactured a key to
fit the door; then came back, entered the store
about 6 o'clock one aifernoon, took out several
bngs full ol shoes and hoots, and took tbem to a
board ins-house on Ninth and Filbert streets.
The goods were then sent to Now York to the
house ot witness, where part were recovered.
TheBe same parties were convicted last week
of a charge of robb ps a storo on Cliesnut street.
Sentence was deterred.
A Reckless Jehu. Jacob Albright let
bis horses outfit a reckless rate ol speed i yester
day ni' ruing. As he turned the corner' of Fif
teentn and Coate streets, his team came in col-ll-iou
with another, Injuring it to a considera
ble extent. The affair created quite a stir, a'id
the war of words waxed hitrh an t furious. uuUl
an otlicerot the rol ce quietly took Mr.Albriuht
into custody aud escorted him to the olfice of
Alderman ilutchinon. After n hearing before
tbat pentlemnu, be was coiumitto.1 to answer
for reckless drivng, and to rellect on the truth
ot tne old maxim, xue more baste the less
speed."

at Market street, on the Philadelphia aide of the
