IlufcBAKDS Beware An Interesting Sckke m a Bkating Park. The lords nud mas teis should.bear in mind that their better halves have as great a desiie to skate as they, aud, therefore, when tbey come to the conclusion to vibit a skating park lor the purpose of indulging in the healthiul exercise, they should kindly extend an invitation to said better halves. If not, they may have occasion to regret it, and be the victims of an incident which happened upon one of our skating parks on Wednesday, in this wise: A gentleman, accompanied by two ladies, came to the park, and after adjusting the ladies' aud his own skates, with one on each arm pro ceeded to perambulate the smooth surface. ; He had visited almost' every portion of the park, and 110 doubt being tired, stopped to have a chat with the friends accompanyiusr him. He had not remained standing long before a lady was observed upproaching the trio. Having reached them, she immediately caught the gentleman by the coat collar and led him otf to the platform, and there bid him stay until she returned. She then started after the ladies, who, not under standing what It all nicafit, were very much frightened. As they saw Uio lady coming towards them in a menacing manner, they im mediately left the vicinity of the spot, and started off as fat ns they were able. One of them being rather verdant in the skating line, tumbled down several times,- but having the advantage of being on skutes, kept out of the reach bt her pursuer. The chase continued for some time, much to the amuse ment of the spectators, but was finally given up, and the lady returned to where the cap tured man stood, took him by the arm, and marched him out of the inclosure. It turned . out, on Inquiry, that the gentleman was the lady's husband; and she, not relishing the idea of Ills "skating with other women," was deter mined tojspoil his alternoon's sport. The whole affair was ludicrous in the extreme; and after the couple had departed, the crowd turned its attention to the two ladies, but they, not being disposed to be the centre of attraction, left the eene shortly alter. COSIPANT "G," OF THE " KEPUBLICAN Invincibleb," having elected General Geary an honorary member of their organization, have Erepared a certificate of this fact ot a very ela orate and beautiful character. Tho heavy gilt frame In whicht is contained is about two feet wide by four feet In height. The certificate has been written by an accomplished penman, and surrounding and surmounting it is an arch, supported b.v a column on either side, asrainst which stand 'the figures of a "Boy in Blue" and nu "Invincible." This portion is executed in crayon, and is the production ot a member of the Company. Company "G" goes to Hartisbure on Monday to attend the Inauguration, on which occasiou It Is their Intention to present to the new Gov-, ernor of the Commonwealth the above certifi cate of his election. To-morrow evening, at 7i o'clock, a meeting will be held at Casselberry Ilall, on Coates street, below Eleventh, to com plete the arrangements for tho journey to the State capital. Books for Presents. The New York Express, discussing the subject of holiday gifts, senbibly remarks: "There is no gift so utilita rian in character as a book. The mcane.it volume may give ns much instruction as it extends pleasure, and the richer ones are a j')y aud a glory forever. Fancy articles soon tar nish, and are easily broken, "aud then cast aside as unsightly and valueless; but the last leaf ot a book we have seen preserved as a precious memento of the time and the friend who gave - it when it was rare and radiant in complete ness. Articles of dress, of the toilet, of wear of any kind, are all of short-lived favor; they pass out of memory with the brief life of a iashion but a book never grows old. It is a . pi eseut, too, which suits every age and every condition, and echoes respectful recognition, or warm friendship, or ardent affection, and can never offend." Hook Catalogues sent on appli cation by T. B. Peterson & Brother, Philadel phia. La Coterie Carnival. With the return of the season comes tho reappearance of that most popular oi all our winter enjoyments. The names of Abel and Risley have become so famous as to render it almost superfluous to say that the management of this most elegant affair is still intrusted to their hands, and, like the Hen rietta in the recent ocean yacht race, they bid lair to carry off the coveted prize. (Nothing that either art or ingenuity can devihe has been over looked in the preparations thus far made. From all we can learn, we have reason to believe that every nationality upon the civilized portion of the earth will be renresented in proper costume, while there will be' no perceptible diminution of earnest representatives of cosmopolites as well as theatricals. A Belligerent Female. Bridget Moss, a woman of remarkable combative powers, and of an excitable organization general It, got into a difficulty on Wednesday evening with a man in Frankford. Not being able to silence him with her tongue, she tried the virtues of a brick applied to lils head. The result was a contused lump on the man's head and an aetlon for assault aiid battery agalnttt Bridget. She had a hearing before Alderman Holme, and was held Jn $12Q0 tail to answer. Nor to b Tbiflfi YVrrn. Marr O Brie was anvHled for committing an assault and bat tery upon one of the wnfrkored balf of humanity l.vt Vt ednesdaT. Mary lives in Hann-a street, C'crmantown, arid is said to be a quiet person when not disturbed. She has got some neigh bors, however, wbce form are an abomination in her eves. One ot these went to her domicile Inst Wednesday, and sat down for a long call. Mary gently hinted that the space- b occupied was far more pleasant than himself. He did nrt tnke it. She then pointed to the door, and sa'd "lavc;" but he. did not see that either. Evi dently it was a case In which the suaviJer in irtodo H6fortiter in re did not answer. She then tried the argiimentum al knock-downum upon him, and set her seal upon one of his eyes, and ejected him lnglonouslv from her door. He bioi:ght an action against her for asnult aud battery before Alderman Good, wht held her to answer. Illicit Distilling.

Tho charge was brought n calnst him by t 'man named John KMey, who is employed by L Levy as a coachman. He asserts that the uoy Farrel was in the stable while he was doing some work, and that havina; dropped his pocket-book, containing $40 in five dollar notes, the boy picked it up aud kept it. As soon as he missed It he had Farrel arrested. He was taken before Alderman Allen, and said he pave the money to his mother, who was ar reted for receiving stolen goos, but she denied It. Both were hH for further hearing. Sneak Thieves. George Wellington and James Hayes were arrested at Third and Arch streets, last evening, on a charge of larceny. It appears that they have been in the habit of going around just at dark, before the store keepers take in their goods, and, watching their chances, take what they can lay their hands on and make off with it. 'Lest evening they stole a box of tea from in front of a store in Second street, below Arch, valued at $30. They were observed and arrested, and had a hearine before Alderman Godbou, who, after hearing the facts ot the case, committed them for a furtnor hearing. A Large IIaul of Butieb.

He took it home in his wagon, aud left the latter stand out in his yard over nierht. Some person or persons attracted to it (by scent pro bably), removed twenty-five pounds and ma le away with It and themselves. This morning he iourid but sis pounds, which the thieves were evidently not strong euough to carry. St. Michael's Church Fair.
