Frustration of an Attempt atAksox.
Shortly alter one o'clock this morning, smoke
was seen rising: irom the cracks in the cellar
door ot the saloon at the northwest corner of
Twellih aud Brown streets, and was aiso slowly
forcing its way through the bulk window and the
doorway. A person who was parsing at the
time went up to the door, ami found all fast
ened, and everything Wi.s as still hs death. He
then rapped at the door ot the principal en
trance on Brown street, und awoke the inmates,
and then ran around to the Lincoln Hose house
and gave them the alarm. They immediately
got out tbeir apparatus and proceeded to the
scene ot operations. On opening the pluce the
cellar was discovered to be in Humes. The fire
had caught the joist and the under part of the
flooring, and had just succeeded in burning
through In three or four spots in the bar-room
floor. It was soon extinguished, and then,
tinder the superintendence of Fire Marshal
Blackburn, a thorough investieution was made.
The building itself is a tnree-story brick. The
cellar aud first floor were occupied by Charles
Uhiner as a latrer beer saloon, and the rest of the
buildine, except one or two rooms lor himself
and family, was sub-let to two other families.
On lookiDg over the reraises. It was found
that a deliberate attempt had been made by
some party or parties to tire tbe place. A large
quantity of ury stlsks of wool had been piled
' upon a table, and a number of bundles of kindling-wood
had been placed, upon the table,
and the backs ot cba'rs arranged around the
table, so as to support them. A log cabin of
dry sticks of wood had been built in the cellar,
which reached almost to the joist.
Between the piecrs of wood a quantity of
cedar shingle shavings had been placed, and a
bundle was put in the centre of tbe cabin work.
Not having much of a draft, the wood had
not blazed very freely, but had smouldered lor
some time. The heat, nevertheless, was very
great, and had melted the supply-pipe to the
gas-meter, so as to alio m of a profuse escape of
aae. Mr. Harrison McManus, a member of the
tiood Intent Enaine Company, at the imminent
risk of bis life, weDt down and shut otr the ens,
i tbuB preventing the disastrous effects that
would bave ensued if much more gas had
escaped.
When the fire was discovered the two sub
i tenants, with their lamiliefl, were in the house
buried in (dumber. The proprietor, Charles
Uhing, with his wi'e and infant child, tbe latter
only hve months old, had gone to a ball at
Musical Fund Hall at 10 o'clock, where the
police found hira. Officer Matthews arrested
I him. and he was examined by Fire Marshal
Blackburn. He accounted for the origin
of the fire by saying that some one who
had owed him a grudge had broken into his
place durinz bis absence and tried to burn him
out. But there were no indications whatever
ot any violent entry. In the snloon there was
a verv small stock of goods, and he is alleged to
huve been trying to sell out bis place lor some
time past,
He had an insurance of $1000 on his stock in
the Germanta Insurance Company, of New York,
of which Mr. John Wilson is the agent in this
city. When Mr. Blackburn asked him for his
policy he was confused, stammered, aud finally
drew it out of the breast pocket ot his coat.
Chine will have a hearing on the charge of
arson this afternoon.
Feejury. Thomas Tolls was before
Alderman White yesterday, upon the charge of
perjury. The facts ot the caEt are substantially
these: A man named Edward Hodges died at
the house ot the prosecutor (William J. Ualligcr),
rjobsessed ot considerable money. Galliger be

(an Englishman) bavins no relations in this
country. Tolis. no doubt, thought he had "a
very good thlug," and determined, if possible,
to have his letters of administration set aside.
In order to do that, it was necessary for hira to
make oath that he had some legal right to the
claim himself.
He had an affidavit drawn up and sworn to
before Alderman Delaney. and tiled it in the
OrDbana' Court, getting forth that he was
-"attorney in fact" for Hodges' sister, who re
sided in England. At the hearing the Court
Hiamlssed his rule and sustained Gallieer. wit
nessea having been examined and testified that
the tacts set lortu in tne atnaavit were false,
T.n Alderman considered the evidence sutti
cient to bind him over in the sum of $1000 bail
lor his appearaoc at me next term or court,

A Mosr Vai.uablk Inventio.n A Nkw Piano.
The superiority, In compactness and elegance, f tho
tipriptu piano, has lon been conceded: but, lor
reasons which we shall namo, this boautlful Instru
ment has teen tabooed bv the musical prolession, as
well as by those who are at all cultured in musio. It
lacked i,enny all the essentials of a-food piano,
viz.: power, resonnnee, brilliancy, quality, and
I soil i ty of touch. This arose from tho cramped
ectiou and the method of attaching the rest piank.
I lie nprifrht pianos were also constantly getnnir out
ol tune, and required continual attention, t'outit ess
experimtn's were aiado, both bv eminent European
nil tiircan mai.utacmrers, to overcome these
patent tin; ertetteiis, but with little result; and the
up'irlit pieiio was condemned as a torlorn hooo
tliouuh lo li manufacturers and purchasers longod
to see achieved the dosideratum of a perloot nprlirht,
ii strtiment, a piano which, In every essential, would
take it place alongside the best squares and grands.
1 he eminent New York tnanuiactnrers, Mosr.t.
Stelnway ft 8on, whose many and varied im
provements in tho construction of plano-lortes
have rained them a world wide reputation, have
devoted years of experimental study to tlio pcr
leotion ol the upright piano. Tha patient eflort
and untiring perseverance of thee gentlomon have
been rewarded as they deserved. Their new in
vention which must entirely snporsedo the old
methods ot oinstiuciing upriirht pianos Is styled
"the patent resonator and double iron tramo," and
wa patented on the 6th ot June last.
J Ms new and marvellous invention may be briefly
detenbod as follows i The instrument Is provided,
in addition to the u-ual iron frame containing the
strii.es in fiontof tho sound-board, with an iron
t iace fiame in the rear oi it, instead ot oonstruc'ing
that portion ol the tnstrtirm nt, as heretofore, of
heavy p'eces of timber. Both the front and rear
Iron frames are cast in one solid piece, by which
means a solidity of construction and quahtv ! stand
ing in lune unsurpassed In the histoiyot plano
loi to manufacture, are insured. A novel disposition
ot the houna-board i also made. This moi import
ant portion ot the instrument, which has beon aptly
di scribed as "the lung ot the piano," is by a simple
contrivance supported in its position and held in
tension between tho two iron fraraos; capable of
snch mco regulation that the greatest possiblo do
gree of vibiatory power and sound-produoiog capa
city are obtained, which can be infallibly registered
at any desirable point.
In a I the taulty o il styles of upright pianos manu
factured, the action stood upon posts, the lower
ends ol which rented upon tho keys, rendering tho
mechanism both cramped and complicated, whilo
the pianos were constantly liablo to got out of
order. In the now patent uptight piano of Stoin
way which, like tdcir square and grand piauod, is
overstrung-tho action werks directly upon ana
from the keys exactly as In the other description of
instruments, and tho touch is just as prompt, facile,
light, and agreeable. Another great and remark
able impiovement is the application of their newly
invented soft pedal to these instruments. By a
most ingenious, vot snnp e contrivance, the whole
range ot hammers cau be moved either In cloe
nroxinntv to the strings, or tj aav desirable, point
of their sinking distance; thus enabling the player
at will to elicit the full cower ol the instrument,
or the softest whisper of its tone, to give any
gradation of crescendo or diminuen lo with unerring
certainty.
Taken altogether, thee new upright pianos are
the most perloct instruments of thuir c aas ever
constructed. Their non-liabi.iiv to cot out of
order, aud the certainty of their remaining in tunc
for a succession ot years, together Wit'i their com
pact beau iv of lorm, render them tbn most desira
ble instrument for all persons with waom eoouomy
of room a a leading consideration.

Waphinoton, January 17.
National t'tlo3 Republican Kecutlve
Committee.
The National Union Committee, appointed at
the I'altiniore Union Convention, and which
was reconstructed last year, trlcets at Willard's
Hotel to night for general consultation.
The Impeachment Movement.
The tumult in regard to the impeachment
movement is increasing. The extreme men of
the Republican party express their determina
tion to push the matter to its bitter end, and
they expect to bring a majority of Congres
to their support by a party vole. The reports,
however, put in circulation iu regard to the
serious nature of the evidence takcu by the.
House Judiciary Committee are untrue, and
are so pronounced by Mr. Wilson, Chairman of
the Committee.
The Committee have given time to Mr. Ashley
to produce evidence, and the matter rests there
at present, so far as the Committee la concerned.
It is charged that many of the reports sent away

would be rejected.

Mr. Kimmell offered the following reo'utlou :
Firt. That we bave learned with indignation that
the President Ol the United Stutc has nominated
Fdgar Cowan as Minister to Austria, to take, the
place ot the accomplished statesman and historian
bow holding thnt position. That br nominating a
man who has betrayed hi constituents, and disre
garded bis pledges to the people of his native State,
and whose eouise in the Senate has teceived tholr
maiked condemnation. Mr. Johnson seem to have
contemplated a direct miu't to the freemen ot Pen
svlvama, and show his persistent puroose to plaoe
the (government in the hands ot men who are op
posed to the inteiests ot this, nation, foreign aod
domestic.
Second, That we fully approve of tbe action of
the .Republican member ol Congress in opposing
the confirmation ot Mr. Cowan, and we unite our
protest with theirs, and cad on the Senate to reiect
tbe said nomination, and tnerobv save onr country
from tha shame of being represented abroad by one
who in no particular would be a true exponent of
Amoiican ideas or prinoiple. .
Mr. Bovd protested on b 'liall of the Democratic

THK BQITAI. RIGHTS CONVENTION.
Continued from ur Third Edition,
lhe third resolution, referring and tendering
thanks to Senator Cowan, was spiritedly combatod
in toe discussion. Inasmuch a he was actuated by
an evil motive in making that movement, hence he
should not be thanked.
Hon. George Thompson, of England, spoke at
length ou tbe subject. If he would enter into tho
delineation of the wants and rights of women, it
would necessarily require bis being a woman, in
order to thoroughly understand the feelings and
the nature of woman. Surely they saould have
their rights, ii we would elevate thorn into a higher
sphere of society
lie would av, be not bastv, be icsoluto.be firm,
be. steady, assert your rights constantly, and in
t ine you must sncceed. Woman should share in all
tne political right oi tho nation. I would give to
evcrv man and woman the opportunities ot making
lor themselves a station whioh would cause the tor
nmtion ol all noble influences through the whole
population ol tbe nation, re mlting from such ele
vation. Mrs. Stanton believed that Mr. Cowan should
receive the thank of the wom-n of America, for
while he pledeed himself to aid in verv manner,
Scna'or Sumner, when this reolution to enfran
chise women was pending, sat still and said nothing,
(iballaman not be thanked lor attempting to aid
those women, thousands ot thousands, in the cities
who are working at starving prices, and counte
nancing, as others did aot, the enfranchisement ot
wroen, trying ta elevate the lower grade ot
society, in which many, nianv women are moving
iu an-sipation, vice, and degradation ?
Mrs France D. lage said that intimation had
heen made not to be bastv, but wait in patience,
vt omen in this particular bad been waiting for
more than six tboasand years, and she, almost
nxtr years of age, waited to b liberated before be
oied ' Two million oi black women and liftesa
millions ot white women of the North are waiting
lor 1 1 bo ation. aad it was time that strong measure
should be instituted looking to this great end.
It was ordered that the resolution thanking
Mmator Cowan lx reconsidered and laid on the
table
M' M.A.Thompson, of Vermont, rose to ask
that ah. their brother and iriends, shoild stand

1 discovered a bruise npon the wrist, a it from a
ball; it was on the right wrist; the ball passed along
the rye-ball, on an upper stir face through the
oibital plate of the frontal bono; this plate forma
the root part of the cavity that contains the eve-ball ;
the bail then passed through the left hem sphere of
the brain, and was fonnd immediately opponto ta
the back port of the head, near the ocoimtal bone;
the latter was not larger than a buckshot. Joha
Malonoy came to his doath in consequ mo9 of this

We sat down and smoked a cigar; then three
otheis. wlioni 1 do not know, came In; Pnul stopped
out from where he was sitting, and one ol the thru
men looked, at him pretty hard; Pau1 said "You
need not look so bard t is me;" alter that th"y had
some words and quarreled ; 1 do not remember what
was said: the smaller one ot the partv caught Paul
by the neck, and the othT two fork him away ;
Paul didn't strike; I believe Paui said then he could
whip any one ot them, and would bot lifty dol'ara oa
It; if they would fix tiie place tuoy oould have tbe
fieht out ; one of the party said there was no uso in
talking lo him, because he wasn't worth It, as ha
had a Hti'e brother at home who oould whin him;
Paul, I think, said he didn't want any words wita
him.
Une of them picked np a bottle from the bar, ana
made a strike at Paul; Mr Cawson took the bo U
away, saying be wouldn't hove fighting id his house;
betore these parties lett. Paul said if he ere s
