Effects ok thk Storm Detention
of the New York Lines Low Tide in tiie
Delaware. The wind storm which commenced
yesterday morning continues throughout the
whole day and night. Its effect on our river
front was remarkable. The prevalence of north
west winds always produces, in our river, a
diminution in the tide, but the unusual power
caused its reduotiou several feet, literally emp
tying all the docks, and leaving oyster-shallops,
sloops, and tug-bouts liitrb tiud dry. The United
States' Rights, conveying the New York passen
certi, wa aeround, arid oulv gafi-euiled in reach
' ing this side aiter a ttvo hours' pn'sase, mct
ine the 8 o'clock tralu of New York passengers
mid-stream, conveyed arj-o.-s, as they were, by
the Market htreet l'erry line", in the absence of
the rcfinliir boat. Tne pyssenaers were com
pelled to walk ud loMuvket street, while tUir
hucpace was called up in trucks. It was then
alt-past t, inakins a detention, therefore, of an
hour and a half, aud which would probably ex
tend to two hours. It was flood tide about half
pnt 7, but at halt-past 8 there was no apparent
rise. The wind was literally blowing the water
out of the river. There is, of course, vast quan
tities of floating ice in the river, but this does
not seriously impede navigation.
Death of an Estimable Citizkn.
Thnmns Allen. Eso.. lonir and favorably known
in the Northern Liberties, died ou the 15th, of
paralysis. Fewpersots have been called away ny
ieath who will be so sincerely mourned as Mr.
Allen. For some months past Mr. Allen has tilled
the post of Assessor of the Third Collection Di6
iriet In t.hla citv. and bv his unitorm kind and
wptitlenionlv dcDortinent. had made, himself
hosts ol iriends as an otlicer. Thi assistants in
hi fiennrtnient held a meeting yesterday after-
nnnn. -lames J. Francis, was called to the
rliBir. The usual resolutions were pased,
eulopies upon the memory of the deceased were
pronounced bv Captain John M. Carson and
Sbttiph .1. Francis. Eso.. and the meeting re
.nlvMl to attend the ob3P(inies as a mark of
tbpir pstppm. It is seldom that we have to re
-ord a mertinsr of this kind at which so much
feeling and sympathy were exhibited.
A Thievish Son. Robert M. Dore, who is
Yprtortcd to be a voune man whose covetous
desires are infinitely ttronger than his conscien
tious rfgard lor nonesty, was arrested at, siiiu
find South strePts yesterday afternoon, on
rharsre of larceny. It appear that Robert
has cot quite a penchant lor appearing a larger
nmn iiian nc n iiiiv is iu u jiiiaucmi umui ui
vipw. He likewise has a nassion for hi
trionic studies, and loves to caze upon the fair
mies who appear upon the boards ol our
thRAtrea. In order to make a better appearance
be borrowed his mother's cold watch and pair
of opera-glasses, in her absence from her home,
No. i;)25 Vine street, without asking be''
. Yievmission. In order to bring him to it du
f ense ct what he had done, she had hnn arretted
and taken before Alderman Beitler, who held
Mm In $1000 bail to auser.
Death fbom Exposure. Yesterday a -tcruoon
an old woman, who goes by the name
ef Mrs. Countryman, and resides in Passyunk
road, below Christian street, started out to
do some little work in Second street. She
walked some distutice, and got tired and cold.
She managed to get as iar as Fourth aud
Christian stieets at 5'3(l in the evening, when
t-he felt herself getting drowsy. Not knowing
the fatal effects of setting asleep in that condi
tion, fcbe sat down upon a door-step, and, lying
over, went to sleeD. Officer r'lemming passing
by at that time, saw her reeliuintr on the step,
Hud walking up to her, found the 3tate she was
in He had her taken into the Iiousp, but she
died soon after getting inside. The Coronet
was notified to hold an inquest.
The Stokm. The storm that raged during
pait of yesterday and last night had the ellect
of retarding travl to no inconsiderable decree.
The New York train that was due yesterday at
10-30 A. M., did not arrive until three hours
later. The train that wa" due at the Pennsyl
vania Ktulroad depot, ut Thirty-fir and Market
streets, lust evening, did not arrive until 8
o'clock this morniusi. At KelleyviUe tho loco
motive "Kelleyville" was found to have been
upset, and was lying at the side of the track
with tlie wheels uppermost. As a general
thine, travel was retarded everywhere where
the storm spent its force. Last night in the
itv the wind was very heavy, und awning1,
Hifiiie, and shutter guttered,
Stkamno Swfeth. James Sloa, wh.lfit
sujiumg hiras-'lf In the classic shades of I'enn
siid Tine Plreets yesterday afternnop, was
strotisly altrac t'd to the corner of thoevtwo
flreets, where a rurtitlenian bad locotedihiniself
. a grocer. In front of that establishment
.lames beheld a sweet spectacle. It was no
more nor less than a barrel of sugar. He
drew near unto it and abstracted about fifty
pounds, more or lea, and walked off. Ollicer
Kearney saw the little transaction, and walked
after him, and catching him by the collar, told
him be was wanted. As they were going along
to the Station House, Frank Chnnley, a chum
of Sloan's. Interfered with Ollicer Kearney, and
tried to pet his prisoner released. The re-mlt
was that both were marched to Alderman lleit
ler's oflice. and Sloan was hold In $400 bail to
answer for larceny, whilst Clianlcy was held in
$.r)00 to anwer the charge of interfering with
an officer In the d'selmrorp of his duty.
Inciting to Kiot. Loat Monday morning
a man named Issue D.iwaon went into Duffy's
liquor store in Frnnkford. with several com
panions, and tindertook to raise a rumpus and a
riot. He talked largely to Mr. Duffy, and gently
insinuated that he intended to tear his esta
blishment out, with the help of his aforesaid
companions. Duffy did not exactly like the
idea ot such a radical house-cleaning scheme,
and procrcded forthwith to tell the Mayor of
his grievous experience. The Mayor issued a
warrant for the arrest of Dawson, and ho was
forth collared at Whitehall bv Officer Johnson,
and eicorted to Alderman Holme's office. After1
a hearing, he was hdd in $500 bail to answer.
NrMrns Sent Below. Last night, shortly
after midnight, a couple of street-walker", who
had been practising their siren arts all to no
purpose, were pacins their wearv rounds in the
neisihborbood of Sixth and Lombard streets. Up
and down they travelled their weary way,
their spirits sustained by the old remedy of
pouring spirits down, until they got noisy. They
were both arrested, and had a hearing before
Alderman Butler. They cave the names of
Josephine Gilbert and Kllcn Clark. The result
of tho heariner was, that they were furnUhed
board and lodging for a month ut the expense of
the city.
Burglars Scared Off. About lialf
pust two o'clock this morning, Mr. Ueatty, re
siding at No. l(:tl South street, heard a noise as
if some one was trying to force an entrance into
his house. He got up and, getting a gun loaded
with large shot, he went to his back window
and looked out. Three men were below, who
had got into the yard by climbing tho fence,
and were then in the act of forcing open a shut
ter. He fired the gun at them, when they pulled
up stakes and fled. On making ,an examination,
it was found that they had forced the bolt back,
but had not been able to effect an entrance.
Stealing Chickens. Joseph Butter
worth and William Liud were before Alderman
Hurley this morning upon the charge of steal
ing four chickens. They visited the place of
Mr. Austin, at Belmont Cottage, under the pre
tense of showing a letter to an old man. They
slipped under the barn, and deposited the
chickens in a hack, and made off. They were
pi rceived, followed, and arrested. Each was
held in $r.OO bjtiU
Selling Liquor to Minors. Thomas
Wallers, who keeps a place in Frankford, on
Church street, was arrested last Monday after
noon, on a charge of t-ell.ng liquor to "minors.
His place is near the Decatur Fneine-house,
and it is allesed that he is in the habit of sell-
me liquor to minors, and also of selling with
out taking out a license. He had a hearinir
before A Idermau Holme, and was held in SHOO
bun to answer.
Carelessness. Last night there were a
great number of str-s found open in the Fifth
Police District. About twelve were reported to
the Mayor. It is worse f'uan carelessness to
leavp such au inducement to thieves and in
cendiaries to practice their avocations. Not-
withstandintr all that has been said upon the
subject by the press generally, the same thing is
reported day after dav.
A Mistake. The paper of yesterday
fated that a thief had attempted to rob the
house of Mr. mlham Miller, at Seventh and
Christian streets, and that when he was chased
from that place he ran into the Moyamensincr
Ho.e Company's House, aud ma le his escape in
that wav. it Is not staled, nor was it Deneveu
that he was a member of that, Company.
Suspicious. Joseph Wilson was dis
covered in the four'.h story of the buildine No.
Kin Chesnut i-treet last evening, Dv a young
lady, who called in OuVpt Souder and had him
taken before Alderman Beitler. He was held in
$1500 bail. It is supposed it was his intention
to rob the place.
fj Fire-Plug Burst. Owing to neglect on
the part ot somebody who ouebt to have had
the lire-plugb properly protected agiinst the
frost, there have been several bursting the late
severe cold weather. Liast mem the plug at
Eighteenth and Spruce streets burt.and flooded
the street with water.
Recovery of Stolen Goods. Another
batch ol the goods stolen by Harrod. from
stores In Chesnut street, has been recovered by
Lieutenant Connelly. The recovered property
consisted of penknives, combs, und fancy arti
cles, It was restored to the owners.
A Toung Rebel. Alderman Hurley
this morning committed a lad, sixteen years old,
named William Hazel, to the House of Kefutre,
for the laTceny of a sum of money from his
mother, and being so unruly that she could not
control him.
Attempted Burglary. The store at. the
corner oi Twelfth and South btreets was broken
into about 3 o'clock this morning. The thieves
bad pried open a window, but were alarmed
bfttore they hnd succeeded in doing anythiug,
and ran off.
Slight Fike. The chimney of James
Cooper's ipiderce, Second and Huntingdon
streets, took ti-p early this morning, but' was
extinguished before any material damage was

OBITUARY.
We are seldom canca upon to rocora tne aeatn ot a
man so universally beloved and respected as THOMAS
ALLI N, the late Assessor o'' the Third Congressional
District. He descended from a stock that has been
known la the District of the old Northern Liberties for
msny years. His lite, until the last ear or two,
has been one ot retirement loved, respected, and
honored bv all who knew him It can be truly paid
that he was a men who had tin eneinina. Ill
acceptance of the AssossorshlD threw great responsL
bllitles upon his mind, his sole aim and coarse
being to do his full duty to the Government and the
tax -pay era. That he was strictly honest and upright.
none doubt; and by bis death his family will loie a

THE REFORM QUWJTIOTT.

An address to Mr. Bright, M. P., wa for
warded to that gentleman lately from the work
in.pmen of Chelmstord, Etnrland, baring b"n
sisrned b7 nearly two hundred aud fifty of thdt
number. Having reviewed hi Pt great ser
vices, tbc address went on to express the confi
dence ol those who hnd alanH it in Mr. Brig.it's
lcadeiship In the agitation for political reform.
Mr. BriRht, n acknowledging the receiptor
the address, any: 1 have received the ad lress,
and I write to express ny thanks to the work
ingmeti who havt J signed it. 1 value their pood
opinion very highly, and were iti not that tbey
tne so Iar oil, and that I have so much to occupy
lue here, I should be glad to have an opportu'
nity of meeting them to discus-" lire.'
question of relorm wilh them. The ques
tion of a wide wxtenMon of the sitilrage
is making way. The address says that "Nearly
100,000,000 in "the United State; and in Germnuy
are in possesion of the franchise," and they
argue from this that fie cause cannot be with
stood here. I believe thev are right in this, and
that tte shull t ome up-with the natious most
advanced in the thoory and practice of repre
hentntive government. The workingmcn tlvrough
out the United Kingdom lire becoming lntre.ted
iu this great ouestion, and their organisation is
becoming more coniplet-x Their power, a Ided
to the potter of the liberal middle class, will be
too great for those who now monopolize the in
fluence of government, and a great change
cannot be lar oil'. In every town and village
the question of workin-class emancipation
should be dif-ctied.
Societies should be forme4,information should
be spread, and thus opinion will be t reated and
con, bitted so a to bear down all opposition.
Do not imagine because you raunot Wring to
gether n vast multitude, fuchas has neon done
In Birmingham, in Manchester, luLetds, and
in Olnsgow, that you have no part in the great
work. Kvery town and village mav do it- part,
aud the ellorts of nil will be needed. But the
cause is great and good, nnd ihe result u
certain.
Thanking you ami your friends for both let

Sutcltte of Perc Clilcnrd.
From ihe Pall Mall Gazette
The Paris papers chronicle the death of one
who was lor some years notorious in a particu
lar section ol Pari-ian society. At break ot day
lollowint; the last opera bal masque a stianire
looking figure was seen to lean lor a moment or
two over trie parapet ot the Pout des Arts, and
then to jump into the river. A fisherman who
witnessed the incident, after loug searching
brought the body to the surface of the water.
Enveloped as il was from head to foot in a lung
hairy covering, it seemed at first sight to be aa
ape, but was soon recognized as a human being.
Attempts were madf to restore animation, but
in vain.. In one of the pockets of the unknown
tho following letter was found, which helped to
clear up the mystery:
"It is useless to attempt to identify me. I am
the descendant of a noble family whom my
follies have dishonored. All my patrimony is
dissipated -and I prefer suicide to misery. To
those who affirm that it Isnecessury tj be brave
to kill oneself. I reply that absinthe gives cour
age. I am drunk: it is thus that I ought to die.
I have been surnamed 'Caoutchouc;' let me
be buried under this name. May my death serve
as an example to youth. Caoutcuouc. '
Caoutchouc, says the Paris papers, was the
old Count Cbicard of modern public balls. His
reputation extended from the Chateau ltouge to
Maoille, and from the casino to the opera.
There was always a crowd to see him dance, and
it was certainly an extraordinary periortuance.
In appearance'he was far from prepossessiug;
he bad a coare, brutal-looking face, pud'ed and
pimpled by debauchery; his dull, lustrelecseyes
bad an odious leer; and his swollen, rickety
fisure also told the tale of excesses; but dull and
listless as he seemed in the intervals of the
dauce, the music no sooner struck up than a srt
of fury seemed to seize him. He writhed and
bounded like a madman. In a quadrille his
stp- were so many convulsions. None of the
clowns ot the 'Cirque'' could dislocate their
limbs alter the fashion of Caoutchouc in the.
rio-ure of "cavalier seul." He had a method of
shortening himself, of flattening himself, of
balancing himself on his hips, of bounding
about a la Quasimodo, whicu thrilled the wild
Bohemians among whom he danced with enthu
siasm aud envy. The cancan is prohibited by
the austere morality of the Empire, but Chicard
managed to introduce snatches of it in defiance
of the police. Altogether this old biilloon old.,
at least, iu looks with his b.ibl bead and pim
pled face, his frenzied contortions, his horrid
drunken leer, aud lewd gesture:-, was one of the
saddest and root disgusting spectacles that
Paris had to oiler.
Thi3 year Caoutchouc was at the head of the
(.f the masked balls ot the opera, where
he excelled himself, so his admirers said, in the
wild" eccentricities of the quudrille. On Sattir
duv the 2-M, tiiscuised us an ourang-ouUng, he
Bvii'ibin d before the crowds in the theatre of.
the Hue Lepelletier the marvellous elasticity tfi
i.,u onriv. 11" leaned on the shoulders of bin.
companions, springing lnonione to the othvr
ith all the eae and more than tho fiiiiserj
vousness otfa Brazilian ape. At 5 o'clock in Vae
morning he was dead..
(in leaving the opera Caoutchouc decimal to
sun with a baud of maskers. After drinking
rive glasses of absinthe in a wife ou the Boulevard-
he betook himself to tho Pout dts Art,
which ho -caled to perforin his last pir.atXittc.
