CAMDEN AFFAIRS. A Nice Little Row Oveb the Kivf.R ''Ktroxc Drink 19 Kaqino" Mayor Budd Puts Down Uowdyibm, and Loses his Jewelry in so Doing Tub Ki'PORre of tub Camden Officials to Kn porch the Sunday Laws. The authorities of Camden are at last making strenuous exertions to enforce obedience to the laws, more especially to those which are in tended to secure quiet on the Sabbath. For this they deserve all praise, and it is only to be regretted that they did not commence their seiious operations at an earlier period. For be it known thut rowdyism for a loufr time was rampant in Camden. This wa particularly the case of Sundays, when Philadelphia was accus tomed 10 pour forth upon the devoted shores of jersey the most disorderly element of its popu lation. the police force of Camden hn3 been, and still is, entirely too small to cope with this rowdy element. They were not too few in numbers. however, to t-trlke uewsiully at the root of the evil, and tLis they have done by eniorcine the law which prohibits the sale of spirituous liquors on Sunday. The eood work commenced a couple of months uao, and the good results which have followed arc mainly due to the zeal and activity ot Justices Cochran and Cassiday. At the present time, we believe, there is not a single baloon in the city to which access can be had on the Sabbath. Since this has been the case, the rowdy element of Philadelphia has found Camden a very dull town on Sunday, and so they have discontinued their visits for the most part. But Camden has a rowdy element of its own, which is fctill disposed to make trouble. Five gentlemen belonging to this free-and-easy fra ternity yesterday afternoon started out iu search of adventure. Between 4 and 5 o'clock they arrived -at a saloon on Market btreet, below Second, kept by Jacob Ilornef. Admittance was demanded and refused. Whereupon the five bold bo. commenced an assault upon the door, which they carried vt et arwis. Ou effecting an entrance within the spiritual precincts, they resolved to vent their wrath upon the pro prietor (or his having kept them out in the cold so lonir. As they were thus aniusinrj themselves, Mayor Budd rea hed the Ectno 01 the conflict, the noise of which had attracted his attention while seated in his pallor, a lew dnors distant. The Mayor, with no gentle grip, laid his hands upon the most demonstrative of the five. This was re sented by the lutier iu an attempt to knock the Mayor down; but his Honor warded oir the blow, and by a discreet rejoinder stretched his assailant upon the floor. The discomfited gen tleman gathered up his prostrate form and be took himself to the street, followed by his four companions. Two ot the latter then set npoa the Mayor, but their attack resulted in their getting into the custody ot the latter, and being marched off to the Station House Tuey there gave the names of Murray and Lober. Having secured his prisoners, Mayor Budd ielt for nis wacch to ascertain the time, but found otily the dandling remnant of the chain. The watch was worth about $2nu, and in addi tion to tin? a valuable ring which had been attached to the watch-chain was also missing. The three desperadoes who escaped from the saloon were then sought out by Marshal Camp bell, in company with several other olUcers. It was BHcertained that two of them were at their boardiua house, ou Front street, above Elm. The hou-e was surrounded, and Marshal Camp bell en'eied the front door just as the fugitive, emerged from the rear. One of them, Seaman by name, stumbled into the arms of Orncer Ayers. ' English, Junior," by which title the other is known, fell into the hands of Officer Gaul. Officers Gilbert and Johntry in the meantime proceeded to Centreville, where the fifth rowdv resided, and iound him safely bestowed in bed for an innocent nap. He made a hasty toilet, and followed the officers to the Station House. This individual's name is George Wiley, and his reputation Is that of being an old otfender. The five have a hearing to-day before Mayor Budd. There is no doubt about their com mittal, and as the Court is now in session, they will be tried at once and receive their just deserts. " The Landloed and Tenant Bill. At a meeting of the citizens ef Camden held a short time since, tne touowing resolutions were adopted iu relerence to the new landlord a .id Tenant bill: To the Members of the Senate and Hoae of Assembly or iheStafot New Jersey. Resolved. That it is the sense of mis meeting that the law approved April t), 18UC, is an oppressive enactment, because it gives tne tenant up to tne tender mercies of the landlord, who. if an unjust wan, bas under this law power arbitrarily to dis possess his tenant in six days, if the said landlord elects thus to receive his rent, or iu one mouth it the tenant rents by the month. Jtesolved, That we are willing to abide by tho old law as It stands upon the statute-book. Resolved, ibat the recent law discriminates for the landlord and ngainat the tenant, in ibis, that the landlord can arbitrarily demand that the tenant shall irive ud possession of his bouse UDon any notice "equal to the number ot days between the days or payment 01 rem; inus nxiug ana umiuiiv the tenant's term 01 Homing possession, as was nerpr atone bv any previous enaotment. jtteotved. that as the stud law was surreptitiously paaed tho last day ot the session, we pray that it may De repealed at wo uci nwuvu 01 our j,egis lutlll-B A rnmm Ittee consisting of James M.

For Additional Local Itemt tet TfJri rage The Wkatiteb. Our city yesterday wore a true winter aspect. Karly in the momin j snow commenced to fall, and Irora that time until noon the flakes fell sifting through the air, an. I now and then, by some little pulf of wind, blustered into faces and Into open doors and turoueh onon blinds, drifting into alleys, and covering all accessible objects with a thin mantle ot purest white. Tbo snow fi ll to a depth which afforded lair sleighing, and the jingling ot nicrrv sleigh bells were olteu heard, from early morn to dusk of eve. The air was mild, but somewhnt chilly, periodi cally striking through the thlckpst ot clothing and'inakinir the bodv shiver with its contact. About 5 o'clock iu the a'ternooii, sirns of rain were apparent, aud a fine mist fell for some time. This morning the aspect of the street was not so inviting. The "snow devils," put into active use bv the railroad workmen, piied snow nnd dirt along the tracks, and salt was freely ued. The walks have been effectually cleaned of their snowy covering on all the principal streets. Sleighers are makins the bet of the present time, by using every manner of vehicle on run ners to bo found; which will be actively en gaged even until the snow has nearly disap peared, and they scrape over the rough pave ment. A Bio Haul at a Disobdkrly IIocsk . For some time past the "Grant House," kept by a man named Alexander Pleifl'er, at No. 125 N. Seventh street, near Cherry, has been com plained of to the authorities as a nuisance. Last Saturday night, about half-past 10 o'clock, a squad of policemen surrounded the place and arrested son;e fourteen or fifteen of the revellers who had been holding an orgie within. The proprietor and four men and ten woman were arrested, and marched off to Alderman God bou's office. After hearing the circumstances ol the case, in which it was alleged that the house was a common resort for street-waikers and disor derly characters, the proprietor was held in $1000 bail to answer for keeping a disorderly house, and the others fined ond held to bail to keep the peace An Elierly Joker. Andrew McBride, aged fifty-five years, was arrested last Saturday night for mistaking somebody else's property for his own. It appears that about 11 o'clock that night he was discovered by a policeman in the act ot removing a sash from one of the windows of old Moyamensing Hall, whenhe was arrested. He was asked what he was doing, when he replied that he had purchased the aforesaid sash, and was taking it away. He furthermore had in his possession a quantity of lead pipe, which had been also obtained from' the building. He accounted for the po sion of the latter verv facetiously: "The Gov ernment watchmen take t he pipe, and I have as much right as they have." Aldermau Lutz di I not see it in that Merit, and pent the funny old fellow to prison, iu4dcfault ot $t00 bail, to reflect on the absurdity ot his positiou. Suspicion of Arson. Fire-Marshal Blackburn made a thorough investigation about the tire in Frankfordon Friday night, in which the mattress factory of Mr. Oliver C. Phillips was burned. Two parties, Frank Reimcr and John Outer, were arrested upon suspicion of hav ing bien the guilty purties who set tire to the place. A short time previous to the breakiug out of the hie they had been seen bumming aiound the neighborhood of the rite and in the engine-house of the Decatur Fire Company. The factory was iu the rear ot the engine house, and Immediately ulter the tire was discovered tbey ran out of the house, each with a fire-born in his hand. After they were arrested they had a heaving before Alderaiau Holmes, who' held them for a further examination. Conjugal Troubles. Peter Held is the name of a man who, it is alleged, treats the wife of his bosom in a most shockingly neglect ful manner. Itcrpears that Peter had a wife and couldn't keep her, or rather wouldn't keep ber. He has been in the habit of leaving her tor months at a time, returning only to beat and abuse her, and without contributing in any way to her support. It is alleged that he went to her residence. No. 417 Everett street, last Saturday evening, and after quarrelling lor some time, he threatened to kill her. She called a policeman and had him arrested and after a hearing before Alderman Toland, he was held in $500 bail to answer. "Hcmmel's Grand Mass." "'Hummel's Grand Mass," in B flat, was very excellently and artistically oerlormed at St. Murv's Church yes rday morning, tne talented choir, under tne directorship of Professor Dos Santos, achieving quite a triumph in it. Mrs. Schimpr. Miss McCartney, Mr. Martinez, aud nr. wmterDoaoru were the soloists on the occasion, and the chorus, which included several distinguished amateurs, was very cuective. Altogether, it was the best performance of "Hummel's Grand Mass" we have had in Philadelphia lor some years, and its repetition would prove moFt ac ceptable to all lovers of good music, capably aud torcihiy executed. SnoPLiJPTEB. Caroline Turner being naturally of a benevolent turn of mind, relieved Mr. McFettrick, who keeps a store at Twelfth and Shippen streets, of a piece ot red flannel, contaioing thirty yards, last Saturday night. It is supposed that she wanted it for the purpose of making drawers for tho natives of Boorraboola Gha, orl for some other beneficent i . v .. . tt . 1 lUNULUllUU 111 lUttt viciuilj. xiuwcvri, vtuunuc could not convince Alderman Tittermary of her purity of motives in taking the flannel, and he sent her Deiow in ueiauit 01 $touu Dan to answer in due time the charge of larceny. A Young Forger. William Hazel, a young colored boy, residing with his mother 8 1 No. 708 Stewart btreet, was arrested last Satur day night, on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. It appears that his mother goes out to work, uud does not collect what is due to her tiutil it amounts to a sum that would make it desirable to do so. William having (more wants than he had money, lorged an order to obtain some ot the money due hia mother, and by that means got about $10, which he appropriated to his own use. He had a hearing before Alderman Tittermary, who committed him to answer. Sneak Thihf. Augustus Fisher was arretted ut Fourth and Lombard streets last mebt, charged with larceny. Augustus is but a young lad, though old in .-in, and has been for some time past eugaged in purloining un considered tiiflea from his father and from other persons. His operations were finally put a stop to and he was escorted to Alderman Hutler, where the case was investigated. The Alderman sent Augustus to the House ot Refuge, where he will have plenty of time to reflect on the error of his ways. A Dishonest Shipmati:. It bas been as-eited that a man who would rob a shipmate is too low a man to be called a thief. Wade Johnnon, who has been employed on a monitor, is charged with the mean offense ot robbing one of his shipmates of $13 and some clothes. The theft was accomplished last Thursday, aud the victim made complaint, and had Johnson arrested on Saturday night. He had a hearing before Alderman Butler, who held him to answer the charge of larceny. Corner Lotnoino. Notwithstanding the Inclemency of the weather yesterday, there was quite a number of these ornamental additions to our street corners arrested. Lleutenart Fuller made a sweep ot about twenty of them, and gave them a chance to obtain an introduction to Alderman Lutz. That gentleman, however, made them pay for It by fining them aud hold ing them to keep the peace.
