8 LETTER FROM PITTSBURG. jc.ratllalle Tb CosmailawiMe Rail. ! Again Thi Welters Trade-Bol-lers' plr-Mrdoeh' Reading, Ktc. toClAL CO01'Dn, T1 TMJWBAFH. PniBBUBO, March 1. la my lAt, I mentioned that tho Evening Journal had breathed Its last. It now rpears Hat "It was not dead, brat Bleeping." After two days had elapsed, the paper asjair Made its appearance on the btreet, and it bdg lair to occupy a place among the Journals of rittsburf for come time to come. My brier mention of the feeling herein regard to the defeat of the Conncllsvllle Railroad bill .has created gome 6tir among oar business men, nd the Tkikokaph was In demand, with none a ban J at any price. I speancimply the troth, when I bt tbat the whole of the matter Is laid t the bands of the Pennsylvania Central Rail road Company. Thii corporation, wielding mien a tremendous influence as it does, abso Jutely Koverns the internal improvement, and commerce of the Slate, and what it says shall ot b or wba'ever interferes with the monopoly which they hold in their bauds, generally comes o nothing. , . .. . A. . ' .. Men frequently wonder how it is that the city f riiiladtlphla, yenr after year, gradually out trorelv loses thetradeot the Western merchants. The solution is, that goods can be bou?ht and Jorwarded to almost any point West for less money than they can be transported oyer the Pennsylvania Railroad. They regulate the "prices, and do abjut as they please, and so tar ha Philadelphia is concerned, there is no hope '"you now have the Kastern travellers passing round your beau'ifut city without deizning to say so much as "How do you do?" And it will mot be long ere you will have Western meu doing the same thing. The Allegheny Valley Bnilroad Is being extended over the mountains at a grade of twenty-five feet to the mile, and as Boon as this is accomplished, Western men, instead of visiting Philadelphia Via the Penn sylvania road, will go direct by the new route to the city of New York. There is a deter nina tion on the part of the business men in this sec tion of the country to break up the Pennsyl vania Central monopoly, and they will let no opportunity pass wherein there is a mito of Bubrtance tbat will assitt in theconsummation of their object. This all comes of the efforts of the Central aeainst tbe Connellsville extension, a measure that was eminently just, and of the utmost importance to the business interests of the great Northwest. The great Fair to be held at the City Hall, commencing on tbe 18th instant, is fast be coming a matter of considerable interest among the people. Contributions are being banded in, and a magnificent new bos carriage has been purchased at a cost of $2000, which will be presented to the company having the highest number of votes cast in Its favor. Tbe concern is styled ''The Allegheny County Monument Association.'' The officers are: Presideut, Major-General James 8. Neeley; Vice-President, General A. L. Pearson ;" Secretary, Horace Snowden, Esq., of the Associated Press; Trea surer, James Park, Esq., Jr. The day on which the great boat races are to come off is not yet definitely known. The first takes place between the celebrated oarsmen "Hani ill and Brown; the second between Messrs. Chambers and Kelley. As botn parties are well known to the "sporting" community as gentle men ot'I considerable endurance and ability, T suppose the race will be an exciting one. Of COlir.-e THE TELEGRAPH Will guOW ail UDOUt it in due time. I attended Murdoch's first lecture last night. His subject was "Shakespeare and the Bible." The house was crowded to its ereatest capacity y wealth and beauty, and the gentleman was listened to with the greatest attention. He insisted that the 'immortal bard" obtained most of his beautiful ideas from the Bible, and quoted numerous passages from it and the plays f Shakespeare to bear him out in his asser tions. The idea, although not a new one, was novel in this section, and numerous Church people, including ministers, were preent. Many of them never having been inside of the walls of a theatre, appeared astonished at the ledum's del neations of the different charae leis of Shakespeare's creation, and the passion and tenderness which he alternately threw into the different parts of his discourse, were marked by a sort of electricity which ran through the audience, and awoke a feeling of sympathy for the charncter which it was almost impossible to resist. In every particular tbe lecture was a success, and the thanks of the community are certainly due the Mercantile Library for these -refilling and dellehtful entertainments. To-night Mr. Murdoch gives "An Evening witn Sir Wal ter Scott;" to-morrow night is devoted to "Prose and Poetry." Business continues dull, and so does the weather. AMUSEMENTS. Tbe "Japs" at the Academy. Risley & Viaguire's great Imperial Japanese Troupe will begin a brief engagement to morrow (Tuesday) evening. The performances of this troupe Lave been very successful in Man f ranctsco, and the feats performed are said to be original. Bingular, and startling. Everybody should secure seats to-day to avoid tbe rush to-morrow. Tickets and seats can be purchased at Hlsley's Hews Exchange In the Continental Hotel. New Chesnut Street Theatre. This even ing Miss Kate Relgnolds, a very pleasing actress, commences an engagement, and she 'will produce a new play translated and arranged from the Italian expressly for her, called The (Jueenof the Silver Ivy. Klie will be supported by Mr. Frank Lawler, the new "leading man" of tills establishment, and also by the entire company. Walhut Street Theatre. True to the Core wan produced on Saturday night to a very flue bouse, and it was observed with creat atten tion. The piece is one of considerable, merit, being carefully and pleasantly written; is lull of bright and beautiful thoughts and line situa tions, and has a very explicit plot. The onlv regret expressed was that the "prize drama" uuould liuve been produced without new and appropriate scenery. True to the Care is an his torical picture of the failure of the Kpanlsh Amaua to conquer England. It is founded on very respectable probabilities, but not upon fact. The bluff bravery of " Ixrd Howard," of Effingham," and the graelous toleration of "Queen Hess," are BtrikiuKly portrayed in the jiiay, and the stubborn patriotism of an Kug. IlKli coast and river pilot is truthfully and stri kingly drawn. Mr. Uayenport, Mr. and Mrs. Walcot, Mr. Chapman. Mr. Hen. Young. MIhs Oraham, and Miss Lec-nle Arltngtou are all admirable in their roles, and with a Utile better acquaintance with the new piece, will make it entirely acceptable. True to the Core will be repeated to-night. Mr Davenport will also appear as"8ir Edward Mor timer" in the Iron Chest, a role that Edmund Keau has made immortal. Auch Street Theatre. Ours hasjbeen very Bueeesslul during the past week, and will be performed every evening this week. It Is one of the most popular novelties that Mrs. John lrewhos ever broiiRtit out.

The Judgment wis T founded upon SJAIi w'rHwhUn0 lsWsu VfocLTan original Snd am wrii wuicn Issued SKalnxi ih mortgagor ana true tenants. A lemri juciSJ il upon the judgment, and lb. pr.Jue. were sold, and conveyed by the Sheriff, lo the mort- gugee, hut to a purchaser who had no notice that tbe mortgager was a uiarrl"d w "nan. Neither tbe ludunient nor the uriii....: " ouesiioned by a will of error, a Uioiii,u " to open or set . . uin uiauoer whatever, aua j ueatiou upon the tiiai m uile cause was whether thev conld be Impeached collaterally; not only Is It agnral doctrine of law lhat the judir m nts or tuiru having jurisdiction of the subject niHtler cannoi he Intpilred into In a collateral proceed ing except for frand In the manner or obtaining the judgment writ. Several points have been noted that i re specially applicable t ludgmentsupon scire facias si r mortgage. For example. In Nace vs. Hailenbaok. IS. It , ;ui, the assignee of a Binrtgaee having ob tained Judgment aitainst the mortgagor and terre tenants In a suit by scire facias, and afterwards be come the purchaser of the premises at the SherlrTe sale, brought ejertment ngainst a terre tenant who oflered on the trial to prove that the mortgage Had been fstlsfled before tbe Judgment, but bis evidence was l? i" b Inadmissible. In lllythe v. Illcharils, 10 S. A U. 21 . which was ejectment br a n ortuagee who bad ri nhhsed at the Sheriffs sale, tbedefendent was net permitted to show that the scire faceas bad not been served, nor that the mortgage money for which judemeut had been recovered by default had been ps d. In Cassev vs. Latimer 5S. A Tt. Ill, we hare the point fllr.-rtly ruled, that the validity of a Judgment rounded upon two nihils to successive scire laciases sot n ortgage cannot be Impeached on a subsequent eiectmenU '1 bo ofTer there was to show that lhe DMirtgHgnr Was tn rjoSAPealnn nflh. i Imn Ih. sche fiiclHsee Issued, and therefore was entitled to per sonal svrvii e; but, said this Court, If the Judgment of tbe Court of Common I'leas whs erroneous, it should have been reversed, on a writ of error, but remaining In full force tbot Court cannot now ln oulre Into any errors which are alleged to exist. The act of I7(v which gives the scire fnru,, doos not fix lhe eflect of two nthiis. but in practice they are considered equivalent a garnishment or a rt-turn ol sr.iiv ftci by the Sherlll; and In Warder vs. 'fainter, 4 U aits, 270, a mortgagor, dead belore tho first scire fac.tti issued, was held to he alive fur the purposes ot lhe Judgment, and well secured alter two Mtols and judgment there upon. These cases are all striking illustrations or the con clusive eflect of the proceedings uoon mortgages under the act of 17(i, The scire fartas is iio further a proceed ing in personam than as it Is directed against the mort gagor or others claiming under him, which entities tliem to the notice prescribed by the act of Assembly or Its equivalent, which two nihil are, and for the ret It Is a proceeding In rem to foreclose the equity of redemption, and to convert the pledge Into money. And the ell eel of the pro ceeding says the act shall be that the purchaxer "shall and inny hold and enjoy the lands, with their appur tensnc.s. lor such estate or estates as they were sold, clearly discharged ana freed from all equity and benellt of redemption, and all other Incumbrances made or suthred by the mortgagors, or thwlr heirs or aBgnees." The writ must Issue against the morigngor. or his heirs, execu tors, or administrators, and its effect when followed out lo a sale. Is to extinguish tho equity of redemption, and to transfer to the purchaser as fully as It existed In the mortgagor at tbe date of the mortKiige. And this transfer, be It observed, Is made by the jugdmenl and tho sale thereon, and not bv virtue of the mortgage. What avails the objection then, that the mortgage was null and void, or tor any reason was Inadequate as an Instrument ot transfer? The Inadequacy of the mortgage might well have been argued by the suit by scire, jitciax, but alter that has been permitted to rise into an un queftioned Judgment, the mortgage is merged Into it, and is no longer open to attack. These proceedings upon mortgages under the act of ITPft areto be distinguished from Judgments on bond against married women, which was the case of Dona hue vs. Scolt, 3 Wharton, 3o9. and of Caldwell vs. Wal ters, 6 II. , 7ii, and also Irom cases of which Knox. vs. l lach, 10 II.. 8.1", Is a type. These were proceedings purely fn personam, where the disability appeared of record, and In Caldwell vs. Wallers the purchaser had notice ot tbe disability, hut here the proceeding was principally fn rem, and the record Imputed no disability of tbe only person sued. Mary Aun Coleman was the mortgager, and tbe purchaser had no notice that she w as a married woman when she made the mortgage. She was properly sued, hecuuse she was tbe mortgagor. The process was accoiding to the act of Assembly, aud the ell'ect of two nthiis was to subject her estate to Sheriff's sale. As to this record she is Mary Ann Coleman still unmarried and mil juris, just as the dead mortgagor in 'fainter vs, Warden was made alive for the purposes of their writ, A wilt ot error to the Judgment oh the mortgage would have made the death lu the one Instance, aud tbe marriage In the other, at) unavailable defect, but without that the judgment stands as It was rendered. The judgment Is atlirmed. I'MThll STATKS DISTRICT COURT-Judcre Cndwnladcr. The Uuited states vs, Distilling Ma chinery, tin which John McC'uilen was claimant. .Before reported. Verdict for claimant.

MotloiiB lor new trials were argued this COUKT OF QUARTER SESsIOXS.-Judge Ludlow. As might have been expected, tho new Court House was very much crowded this morning. Every seat wsb lllled In those parts of the room that are intendeu lor spectators and witnesses; and the bar, literally speaking, was Jammed. Every member of lhe bar entered with a smile of satisfaction, showing plainly thut he appieclated thechumie fr.un tho old Quarter teessloiiy to this large and commodious room. Belore proceeding with the business, Judge Ludlow requested every one lo he silent, saying gl the same time that an oilicer had been directed lo enforce und preserve strict order throughout the room. TUK FIRST CASE OF AS ACQUITTAL. James C. McElroy and Thomas Mc.Mauus, were ac quitted of a charge of the larceuy of a bam belonging to Sellers & Co. The two boys when arraigned plead giiiltv. Hut they afterwards withdrew tiieir plea, and the District Attorney, sayiug that tne prosecutors had expressed a wish that tiie boys should not be pro secuted, submitted the hill without evidence. The boys were not seen to commit the then, but were arrested ou suspicion. Mary McOiunls was clCrffed with the larceny of belonging to I'atrtck Mctiinuls. The defend ant who was not formerly Mrs. McCilnnis, kept a grocery store In Melv in street, and did a very pretty, neat little busluness. Mr. McUluis.an old gentleman, was a good customer of the grocery store. He got his groceries from her, aud would by weekly lusial muuts give her money, until tiuolly he had placed in her bands tlt& But he was still iu her debt. About this time the defendant mar ried Mr. McOiiiDis' son; and the old gentleman, thinking the grocer had also married In the family, said that as n was all In the family, he should not he charged for his groceries, and therefore deiuauded his mouey back again. But the money was gone. The lady bad considered that the money was paid for the goods she had let the old gentleman have; and as her own. she bad used us her business or plea sure' required. But the prosecution said he did not one tne defendants, having paid lor every item of goods as he received It. On trial. Philada. Stock Exchange Sales, Mar. 4 Reported by Be Haven fc Bro,, No. 40 H.
