To Hakrisbuko asd Back How the tiBBY KltSKBVES AND NATIONAL GUARDS WENT TO TbK Inauguration How They Parbd while There How They Came Hack How They Lost Their Pocket-books asd Kan Ofk tub Track How They All Came Home Safe and Tired and Hungry. Sometimes it is pleasant to go to Harrisburg, and sometimes it Is not pleasant. We iniaeine that the two military bodies which left our city on Monday evening, to participate in the Inauguration ceremonies yesterday, found the latter to be the case with them. a. special train, starting just on the heels of the eleven V. 21. through train ot Mon day muht, pronn-ed them a speedy arrival at the Catntal oftheSiate: but the journey occu pied about six hour?, or two hours more than the schedule time. Arriving at Harrisbura, the "boys" were marched to their quarters at the different hotels, not to sleep, out to wash and eat. To eat m Harrisburg, yesterday, was more than n ordinary undertaking. The town was lull ol people; and one who went m search of a meal would imagine that, like himself, all the rest of the multitude wanted something to eat. At dinner time this hungry feature of the crowd was even more manifest than at breakfast. Two companies ol the Reserve stood a full hour in the halls of the Jwe9 House, waiting lor a mere chance to assault the door ot the dining room. The proprietor probably feared some such nianuevre, for his guests were conducted on their way to dinner throweb .a sort ot small i-tnte-room, which could have been easily de fended, thup giviner additional advautage to the system of double doors. Mean while, the hungiy veterans were striving to keep their n1rin nn hv sine ne ana wnisiuus, auu tucce in cr for Governor Geary; and now and then a melancholy voice was heard putting the in- (lutry "Is dinner almost ready r" However, the Reserves and the Guards con trivori in aft something to eat and to have a unnn time eenerallv. tramping through the mnv ni Phontine for the new-made Governor with a lusty vigor that recalled the days of iheir life in rums. And at length, about .-kVioeV in thfi afternoon, thev started on their homeward journey in a stecial train, which one ot thern swears was a mile aud a half long, and which certainly contained near a score of cars. Bnnifl Rtrntwfi coincidence the same special train was destined to convey a hundred or two nf the snnarp-headed and hard-listed fraternity on their wav home from the mill between Collyer McGlade. McGlade himself, the dtscotu- rited bruiser, was a candidate for a seat; but intt us h was about entering the car, the liar rlsburg police made a descent, ana oore him off captive, Many of these bruisers possessed the additional quality of being light lingered. They first experimented npon the pocket ol the gentlemanly conductor, relieving aim of a purse containing $50. Successful in this first venture, a number of ihem made a raid upon the "ooys" in uniform. Some half-dozen ot these latter were successtully manipulated before a Bquare-head was caueht inliagrante delicto. The unfortunate rough was very loughly handled as the result. His face -was pummelleJ into as much of a jelly as was the luce ot McGlade when he received his las; attentions at the hands of Collyer. Tt is also probable that he had a few black and blue spots on the shoulders and under the ribs. And, Uuallv he was about to make aa Involuntary .'xit from the train while in full motion, when the impoverished conductor interfered In his behalf, persuading the Indignant soldiers to release him on the condition that he should return to tho companv of his fellow-chevaliers. Which he did in speedy laHhlou. But the veterans escaped from the thieves only to lall inio a worse peril. The load of iniquity In the bruisers' car was rather more tnan an .ninniH eorrv without an accident. Ho a Hhoit distance east of Parkesburg, at about hall-past 8 o'clock, the axle ot the car in which the National Guards were riding snapped, and down came the whole concern. Three cars i ii.rr.uti fmm tho track, the end ot one was torn out, and the platforms of the others were smashed alter the usual mauuci, iYtutilu rv f jtta tj a a 'huff. It was one o'clock this morning befoie the mlnhfin w sntiirientlv reoalred to permit tbe train to proceed. But on arriving at Downing town the forward car was again thrown from the track, and another vexatious delay ensuea, go that it was not until eight o'clock that they reached their destination, thus making the gjodcTtUc time ot one hundred ami tea mllca la THE DAILY EVENING litteen hours. Alter two nlRhts without sleep, nnd twenty hours without iood, they arc pro bably, at tho present wriiine, slumbering off the eflects of an enormous bienkfuat. Sometimes it is pleasant to go to Harrisburg, and sometimes It Is not. Mercantile Library Meeting.- Last nieht the general meeting of the stockholders ot the Mercantile Library took place at the build ing, and was largely attended. 8. Morris Wain, Ksq., was called to the chair, and James G. Barnwell arted as Secretary. The annual re port of the ulrectots, an abstract of which we publish elsewhere, was read, aud tho existing Board nominated lor re-election. On motion, it was resolved that the By-Laws be so amended as to allow the members who take out two books to return one of them, but have the other charged. Mr. II. V. Ken nedy moved that tho Board of Directors be directed to rescind the rule exclud ing gentlemen irom the Library on Saturday afternoon. This gaye rise to considerable din cii'sion. A motion was made to submit it to a vote of the leading stockholders, which was dc fented. Tellers being appointed, reported a two thirds vote in favor of the repeal, which whs received with applause. A gpntlcman moved thai the high stools in the reading-room be re moved, as the ladies hud complained to him that it was Impossible to climb up on them. As it was replied that no one compelled the Indies to do so, and, further, that no one ever saw more than two ladles in the reading-room at one time, the motion was lost. At the request of the President, a resolution was Introduced lookine towards the requirement, of a ticket from all who frequented the building, which resolution was defeated by an overwhelming majority. At a late hour themectingadjourned. AjMixED-ur Cask. Some days ago.Ofllcer Woll arrested a man giving tho name of Wil liam 8earls, for an assault and battery upon Mr. William Smith. On his way to the Station lIoue he manaced to esctpe from the olliccr, and elude all pursuit. The way in which the escape was made showed considerable cunning on the prisoner's part. When arrested he was driving a berse and wacon, and when they had got about halt-way to the Station House ho told the officer to stop at a house, whilst he went In to eet a gentleman who would go his bail. H3 got out, rang the bell, and went in, and the officer waited outside for him. in the wagon. Thatjwas the last seen of him at that time. He had represented that the horse and wagon belonged to him, but afterwards the keeper of a livery stable on Fortieth street, below Wal nut, said that they belonged to him, and sued out a warrant against William Searls before Alderman Allen on the charge ot stealing the horse, wagon, blankets, etc. The horse itself had betn injured whilst in the charge of Searls. Yesterday morning, Officer Wolf went to Bethlehem with the warrant, and arrested Searls at his place ol business in that town. He had been carrying on a shoe shop under the name of William Johnson. At the hearing before Alderman Allen, it was alleged that he has been going under the names ot William Searls, alias Sm'.tli, alias Stuart, alias Johnson, or almost as muuy as a Spanisliltrrnndec. An Affkctionatk LTcsband. Phillip He?s is, in his own opinion, a model husband. He loves his wife, and loves her "bard as a mule ean kick," toiuse a backwoods expression. Last evening, at half-past 6 o'clock, Phillip get into a slight family disturbance at his home.on Mont gomery avenue, near Seventh street. It was taid to be the old story of the knife and the scissors. Neither party would give in, and he seeing that he was'gettiug the worst of it in the warfare of words, changed tho tone of opera tion, and tried the knock-down arguments with a tolerable amount of success. A police officer, however, stepped in lust at the critical moment, and cseortcd him to Alderman Cloud's office, where he had a hearing. The wife refused to testily against her lord, and he was held in $31)0 bail to keep the peace. Fighting the Tiger. An eager aspi rant after knowledge got a supposed friend to initiate bim into some of the mysteries and miseries of city life. He went around and "saw the elephant,'' and after seeing that large animal be thought ho would -like to seethe Tiger." and have a bit of a scrimmage wlthjthe latter animal. Finding that one of those animals was in a junele near Seventh and Shippen streets, he proceeded thither and saw it. The game that was going on was called three-card nionte, and our areen friend got '"scratched" to the tune of $20 on it. Consider ing that he had paid rather too dear for his little aninf-emenr, ne had recourse to law, ana had William Brown arrested and taken before Alderman MuCloskey. After bearing the tacts of the case, he was committed to answer. An Old Stager. Ellen Costella, who comes under tne denomination ot a street walker, was suddenly brought to a stop in her weary perambulations around Washington Square, at the "wee sma' hour" of half-past 1 o'clock this morning, sne nao oeen pacing ner wearv rounds until she became an eyesore to the policeman on that beat, and he escorted her tn tho wtntinn moiisp. wnere sne naa a te w nours rest and lodgings free, until she appeared betortw Alderman Beitfer. That gentleman, after hear- I ing the facts of the case, sentenced her to thirty days' confinement in Moyamensing. By that time she will have sufficient rest to take another walk. Grosb Carelessness. la spite of all that has been said upon the subject of securinir stores and dwellings properly for the night, and the numerous cases of burglary that happen, storekeepers and their attendants will persist in leaving their doors open. A large number ot cases are reported to the Mayor every morning, showing almost criminal carelessness in expos ing their property to the thief and the Incen diary, thus endangering not only their own property, but that of others.
