A Burglarious Operation A Larob Safe Blown oien and Robbed of $5000 Worth of Jkwklry. This morning Messrs. C. it A. Pcqulgnot, the proprietors of a watch-case manu facturing establishment on the third floor of the building no. zj, south Finn street, were startled on entering the place to find thut bur glars had Deen operating mere during tue night. From the result of an investigation, we learn that about IH5 o'clock last nignt, some persons, by means of a trap-door in the roof, made an entrance Into the building. b rom the fourth story they passed into tne third, occupied by Messrs. Pequignot. They then commenced their operations upon the safe. In the door of this they drilled a hole and filled it with powder, laying a long train of the same explosive material along the floor, and connected with the hole by a fuHe. To prevent any disastrous effects ot tne ex plosion, the safe was held by some ropes bound over it and fixed down to the floor bymems of large screw; and before the door was planed a smaller safe, in order that the concussion shop Id not make too much racket. The train was fired, and the lock was blown open with noise to be plainly beard In the next house, but the Inmates entertained no suspicions, and, consequently, gave no alarm. After blowing open the lock, a large bar, shsrp pointed, was forced into the aperture, and the Interior ranched. From the safe wa taken silver and gold watches and watch-cases, newly manufactured, with gold and stiver flUnics, and pieces of each of the precious metals In solid lumps, all valued at about $0000. After this operation the burglars made their way out of the trap-door with so much alarm and haste, that they dropped quite an amount of gold filings upon the trap-door steps, as well as watches and otter valuables, to the amount of about $10,C00. The establishment did not pre sent a very satisfactory appearance this morn ing, as everything whs overuauled and rum maged, In order to aid the burglars, of whom nothing has been heard. Bit an Ear Off. Christian Eberly and Jacob Belter got into some difficulty yesterday noon, in the "Dutch Row." on Trenton avenue near the Reading Railroad.

In con sequence of the advertisement that has ap peared In the rapeis for some days past, In accordance with the law made and provided In sucn canes, a large assemblage of Individuals of a speculative turn of mind gathered at the auo t Ion siore, No. i02 Market street, to witness the sale of parcels that have accumulated at the Adams Express Company's ofllce, whose right ful owners could not be found. There were those persons present who go in on ground floors" (when tney can, but failing thai, take the next story); those who make strenuous efforts to have opera houses of their own; those who buy envelopes, big with pro mise and sealing wax, for tweuty-flve cents; all of those, probably, who are In tho habit of buy ing their pigs In a poke, which latter remark we hardly understand ourselves, though we can conceive very clearly how, after you buy a pig, you use many a poke before .von get it home, and here were gathered those disposed to be funny, not intent on pur chase; and close beside wns Israel Isaacs and Isaac Jacob and their friends, who only manl tested an Interest of two percent, a month In every object around them; here were women bidders and men bidders; aud,tndeed, could the Internal mind be known, their varieties could not bo excelled by the Ingredients of the parcels they were there to buy; and spectators were there, and reporters too, to witness the great "sell." All gathered like eagles around the carcass, which was wrapped up in the fol lowing words: MT ADAMS' EXrilESS COMPANY'! AUCTION Pale of Unclaimed Packages, by II. P. Wolliert, Auc tioneer, No. 'Ml Market street, Philadelphia. Trevlous to putting In some of his knocks, the auctioneer spoiled a little of the game by first knocking the expectations of idlers, by the announcement that all packages purchased must be left on the shelves till to-morrow, and a little deposit left with the clerk to-day. It was raining quite bard out of doors at that time, but thedamper this put on those indoors fur ex ceeded the heaviest wel; but as It was impos sible for those well wedged In to retlre.they had to keep their feelings of disgust likewise "wedged." and to complete their ignominious defeat the auctioneer went on to say that those who rould not leave the articles must not open them in the store! This was too much. Aery of tire In the street might have started some out, but such a shot as this, fired over the empty bends and pockets of so many, brought a com plete surrender of all tlielr day's hones. With these conditions of sale the auction began. Punctually to the hour the auctioneer raised himself and hammer on the rostrum, toknock down more hopes for less money than Is gene rally done at one time, even in this day of oil strikes and late frosts. The first article brought under the hammer, figuratively speaking, for the article Itself was more than Philip, tne colored porter, could move, was advertised as "Bx, Avery V. C, Hollldaysburg." "Gentlemen, what have I bid for this box? shall I say fifty dollars forty thirty make a bid, gentlemen ten dollars have I bid. Philip, what do you think the box contains?" "I don't know, sir, Il's heavy and pretty much bruised." "A barouche!

Very well, ten cents, ceuts. cents: and so on until It was knocked down to the fair and original bidder, whose name was already on the boo us with an advance paid up, and this parcel was charged against It and laid on the shelf. The auctioneer now bad got into a strata of parcels or an lusignincant size, and notwitn standing his Hashes of wit, and his many new and original observations about valuable goods always coming in smau pacuages, it was evi dent that this crowd was after bulk, notquallty, and he was too glad, as were the agents of the Express Company, who were sprinkled around, to take to some of the weightier matters or tne law. and oarreis seemed to be especial favorites, perhaps many thought tney contained m naiiKsgiving dinners tnat uad started for the "Boys" in camp, and were switched off here, or they might contain dishes or kitchen rurniture, or stolen silks, and other valuables nut up in this rough manner pur posely to deceive as to their true contents; bow- ever mat, may ue, wie rougner.me uux or bar rel, more lively was the bidding. The sale concluded, no oouDt, to tne satisiao tlon of the company and the auctioneer.

The flames spread wlln tue greatest rapiuliy. Boon enveloping the whole building; but they were soon hid by the dense black siik ke which rolled up in huge columns.

During our Investigations In the treatment of dis ease In Its various forms by the agency of electricity. we ba obtained very many valuable and startling facts, which, added to the previous though limited Information possessed by other and less fortunate operators, place us beyond all previous knowledge of this mysterious agent. During the course of our prao lice we bave treated and cured, through the know ledge thus gained, many thousands, and by means of our new discoveries bave established ourselves as the most successiul Medical Electricians In this country or Europe. Electrical Investigation has proved that the human body acts on the principle of the galvanic battery. The brain, mucous and serous membranes, the skin tissues, and fluids, constitute the negative and posi tive lorces, and every action, whether mental or phy sical, Is the result of these antagonistic forces. Diges tion, respiration, circulation, secretion, and excretion are due solely to electrical inllueuce. There Is a polar action established throughout the nervous system which connects with every part of the body. establishi ng and preserving a proper balance of the olectrtcal element wblch constitutes health, and a disturbance of which causes disease.' There are strictly but twa conditions ot disease one of Inflammation or posi tive; the oiber, weak, debilitated, negative and aa electricity contains these two conditions In the action of the positive and negative currents, all we bave to do Is 10 neutralise the disease aud restore proper healthy actloa. Among tne cnronic diseases in wnicn electricity nas been and Is dally being, by our agency, ot the greatest utility, a cure being rapidly etlecleU after the failure ot all other means, are: 1.
