The building will be set back from the street
fifteen feet, and will be 40 by i8 feet in dimen
sions, with a small wing on either side, to con
tain the stairways aud closets. This will give
the entire space of the main building for sohool
purposes, and eaoh floor will be divided into
four handsome recitation rooms, 22 by 25 feet in
dimensions. The bonding will be three stories
In height, the first Btory 13 feet high in the
clear, and the other two stories 12 feet each.
The outer walls will be faced with stone, so
that the structure when completed will be quite
ornamental, as .well as useful. It will be sur

will be given In its construction to the neces
sity for heat and thorough ventilation, the
latter to be provided for by a large chimney
stack and hollow floors. The building is to be
completed by the 1st of January, 18GS, when it
will be ready for occupation, as soon as the
heater, gas fixtures, and furniture can be placed

Secondary schools for boy g and girls.
Inter-StatbFaib at Norristown. Arrange
ment have beet completed for opening to
morrow, at Norrlstowu, the great Inter-State
Fair. It wll! remain open for one week, and
wlilbi one of the largest and most attractive)
fairs ever held in this State. One of the best
features of the Fair will be an exhibition of a
number of valuable inventions of labor-saving
machines, of which a large number will be
placed for Inspection. Another prominent fea
ture will be the trotting matohes of blooded
horses. Lady Thorn and Mountain Maid will
run for a purse of 81000. The Fair is to be under
the control of the East Pennsylvania Society,
and will be co-operated with by the soeletles of
New York, Delaware, and Maryland. The
grounds of the East Pennsylvania State Agri
cultural Society, upon which the Fair will be
held, are situated npon the banks of the Schuyl
kill, about sixteen miles above this city, and
contain thirty acres, with suitable buildings
and a well-graded half-mile raoe-track. It is
easy of access from this city, aud during the
continuance of the Fair excursion tickets will
be Issued at a reduced rate.
Over four hundred stalls and pens will be
filled with live slock, and the great Floral Tent
and Immense hall for the exhibition of domestic
articles will be very attractive resorts.
The great trials of steam ploughs and fire ex
tinguishers will take place on Thursday and
Friday. A feature of the Fair will consist In
the burning of seven fire-proof safes, for the
championship of the world.
An Old Trick at Forgery. Last Saturday
a respectable looking man called at the carpel
Store of J. M. Evans, No. 817 N. Second street,
and after looking at some carpets, selected one
pattern which came to 925, At the same time
lie pulled out about $80 from his pocket-book,
and said that as he did not want to carry so
much money with him, and he was a stranger
In the city, he would be obliged to Mr. Evans
to keep possession ol it for a short time. That
gentleman did so, and yesterday morning a
man named Lewis Botherton was sent to the
store to get the carpet, and after payment of
$25 out of the $80 left with Mr. Evans, ne asked
that gentleman to give lilm a check for the
balanoe, A check for $55 was L'ven to him on
the Northern Liberties Bank. The same after
noon a check was presented to the teller of the
bank of the Northern Liberties for $270. It was
Immediately detected as a forgery and payment
refused. Shortly afterwards Botherton was
arrested. He has been stopping at the tavern
at Fortieth and Market streets, West Phlladel-
rihla, and it is supposed that the objector his
eaving the money and obtaining the check
was to obtain the signature or Mr. Evans.
Botherton had a bearing before Alderman
Toland, and was oommilted in default of $2000
bail. lie is not known as a professional, and
It is doubtless a first attempt, although the for
gery was pronounced by Mr. Evans as a very
good Imitation.
tjNKEiaHBORLT Fracas. Thomas SoMlvely
Is the name of a valiant and pugnacious Teuton.
Whose castle Is In Litbgow street, near Uiraid
avenue. II err Sohllvely was sitting upon the
front portals of his abode, when an Inconside
rate German woman, who occupied the neigh

bot, and he defied the woman. Not content to
express his feelings in words and threatening
to kill her. he went Into his abode, and procur
ing a hatchet he sallied forth, and pursued the
ouendlng German female with the Intention ot
decapitating her. He caught her and made a
furious blow at her head with the hatoket, but
It missed its mark and struck her in the hand.
Herr Sehllvely's courage cooled down at the
slgtkel blood, and the police being attraoted to
the spot by the noise of the combat, took the
Irate German into custody. He was taken
before Alderman Shoemaker, who, after bear
ing the faois of the ease, held him in $1000 ball,
to answer the charge of assault and battery

James H. Bailey was also oharged with em
bezzlement. Ills modus operandi of extracting
money has already beeu given in detail in The

default of SWOP bail to answer.
Breach of Orbinakck. It i9 a too prevalent
custom for drivers of carts and drays to drive
close to one another while passing along the
streets, especially in those thorough fares in
which car-tracks are laid. It is almost impos
sible at some of the crossings to pass, owing to
this practice. Most of the Jehus are not aware
that they are violating the law; If they are, they
pay no respect to the decrees or the Legislature.
Frequent arrests a re made of offending parties,
but tbls does not tend to abate the nuisance
for nuisance it is. Imagine a man In a terrible
hurry to catch a train ouly Ave minutes to
reach the wharf he comes to a crossing, and
finds a long line of drays and carts so close
to each other that the nose of the hor,e
touches the tailboard of the wagon in front,
lie may be apt to indulge In the use of language
not polite, but very expressive; but of what
avail is it? He is compelled to remain stand
ing until the vehicles pass, or go a square out
of the way, and thus misses the train. The at
tempts of the policemen to prevent close drlv
in are of little avail: the craniums of the
drivers are either so thick that they cannot
understand what is told them, or they have an
utter Indifference lor law or good order. At
Third and Chesnut this nuisance is carried on to
an unlimited extent, as many as four arrests In
a dny have been made there. Every one ar
rested pleads entire ignoranoe ef the law. They
are fined, aud In default of the amount are
committed to prison. It would be well for those
who are pOBsesKed of horses and carts, and those
who employ men to drive them, to oautlon
them in regard to the matter. In this way, and
thus only, can the nuisance be abated.
Stealing Spool Silk. Andrew Garrison, a
colored man, was arrested at Seventh and Ship
pen streets, upon a charge of laroeny, yesterday
afternoon, when taken into custody he was
trying to sell a dozen spools of sewlng-sllk to a
second-hand dealer in that neighborhood for
Jl-50. As the market value of that article is
about 16 00 per dozen, suspicious was at once
aroused that he had not come by them
honestly, and he was arrested. He had a hear
ing before Alderman Tittermary and was com
mitted to answer. Heave his residence as No.

Malicious Mischibf. John Walker was

noon, on the arrival of the train from Wilming
ton, on a charge of malicious mischief. It

doing other damage. He had a hearing before
Alderman Mink, and was committed to answer,-

bad received on the back part of her head with
an axe from the band of her murderer. Hhe

the sand. Her sun-bonnet was tied tightly
about her neck, and so completely covered with
blood that the material of which it was made
could not be told. Near her lay a slick of wood
about two feet along.
She was removed to her bouse where an In

The Massachusetts Republican State
Convention Senator Wilson and the
Liquor Question.
Bouton, Sept. 0. There Is an increased In
terest evinced In State politics as the time of
the meeting of the Republican Convention ap
proaches, Wednesday next. There will be a
strong delegation present who will press a
liquor license platform, and another clique will
endeavor to force prohibition resolutions, while
the straight Kepublleans will resort to every
means to silence the guns of both the license
and prohibition men, and- keep the rum ques
tion out of the Convention altogether; and In
doing this there will probably be u pretty lively
time.
lion. Henry Wilson will preside, and In his
opening speech he will counsel the party to
support the Congressional polloy of reconstruc
tion, charge the present condition of the country
upon the President, and compliment Hecretary
Btanton for the course be has taken. Mr. Wil
son and bis more intimate friends will insist
that, in the presnnt condition of national
affairs, local differences should not disturb
them, while there are those of both the prohi
bition and license parties who will claim that
the long agitated question should be now
settled.

nails valued at 00 ceuls. Tim prosecutor, conslitorinc
the fnct that lhe prisoner had already been confined
five days, thom bl he bad been sutliclently punlnlie ,
and expressed his willingness to abandon the prose
cution, if permitted to do so hr the Court. Ttierafore
the bill was submitted without evidence.
P. II. Jsrvls was acquitted of a charge of larceny as
bailee. At the Institution of proceedings asalnst the
defendant, the prosecutor did honestly believe that
an ollense against the law had been committed, as
well m an Inlury done himself: but after mscure de
liberation be became convinced tbat the defendant
bud not really done a criminal act. and therefore the
charge preferred against him was unfounded. He
therefore declined to prosecute the case, and the bill
was suDmltted wltbeut evidence.
Charles Hiss was acnultte'l ot a charge of larceny.
The prisoner had for some time been in Movamea
slug prison, and has, day after day, been brought to
Court, but all this time the prosecutor has railed to
appear to show that be hud Just grounds for sending
llils man lo !allami for accusing him of the base
crime of larceny. To give at least the defendant his
dues, the bill was submitted without evidence, la tlie
absence ol the prosecumr.
Patrick ( uhill. a boy ol eleven years, was charged
with the larceny of tn apples togel her value 1 at ten
cents. He was seen by tillicer tsamuel Hassle to

operations tend largely to tbe loss of tbe tarinsrs
anil produce d filers who hsve goods lylmr there.
Howevr, tbe boy's tender axe was pleaded, and the
want In the law of a presumption of guilt against oie
so young, even though the act be proven, and tbe
Jury rendered avtrdlctof not guilty.
Patrick Donahue was convicted of a chargs of the
larceny of goods belonging lo Oeorne Tress lor. The
defendant, one day, under tne Influence or spirits
n d and fiery, aid firmly believe that he was the true
and lew in I owner of all the prooerty In the unl
veibf; he had lived long enough to know tuat he was
muster of the world.
Acting under tbls belief he look a roll of musHn
from the door of Tressler's store, at Bcond and Hea
ver streets, and was nhout to start off when Tressler
c.'irue out and offered the first practical onposltlon to
his new-born but strange faith. Nor would be be con
vinced that his study of a lifetime hart led him into
deep error, until the powerful argument of a police
ninu was brought to benr upon him; but tbea he
surruiuoed.
He mated to the jury that the evil spirits he had
communed with had made him happily oblivious, and
that nt the present time be knew nothing of the
n; fitter.
Henry Dledrlck was charged with assault and
buttery upon William bplcer The evidence was that

The li'll was submitted without evidence,
reter Ilowen was acnultted of a charge o' assault
and battery upon Ann Kowen. I he prosecutrix did
not appear, and tin bill was submitted without evi
dence. This man's face Is well known in this Court,
lie has been before tbe C .urt repeatedly, one time
upon a charge ot assault and battery upon his wile,
and sometimes tbe same upon his daughter, and in
several instances tbe evidence offered in support of
these charges have shown tho most barbarous aud
0 net conduct on hlspurt
But his wife and daughter always seemed to relent
and lake pity uern htm. and he bai often got off;
and mnnv times before s.x weeks bad passed he
would appear In tbe dock, charged with the same

tery upon Mary Oantz. Mrs. Uants teslilied that she

Fieh Loss About $20,000. About half-past
one o'clock to day a fire broke oat In the cellar
of George Oriflitha' Ironware manufactory, in
Fetter lane, between Arch and Race s: reels
and Second and Third.
About twenty minutes expired before the
alarm was given. The workmen attempted to
smoulder tbe flames. But they made headway
so fast tbat it was impossible to impede their
progiess. In a snort spaoe of time
tlie wbole of the inside of the building ws a
mass of fire. A large quantity of shovels,
pokeia, etc., were carried Into the adjoining
house. Tbe fire communicated to the back
buildings of tbe stores fronting on Third street,
and Is still raging. Mr. Griffiths oannot approxi
mate bis lots, but It will be at least (20,000, upon
which there Is an insurance of $14,000.
Tbe building adjoining on the east was oc
cupied by Mr. UrlfUlhs as a storehouse for iron.
This building was deluged with water. The
engine-room back of tbls was also flooded. One
the workmen, named Lllllgore, was engaged In
drawing varnish from a barrel, when bis apron
took fire from a lamp. He endeavored to
smother tbe flames, but In doing so a piece of
tbe burning apron fell into tbe varnish. In a
moment the wboleoellar was in ilames, and
Lllligore with great difficulty made bis escape.
Tbe main building was live stories in height,
and was filled with flulshed goods.
The inside is a complete wreck. The finished
work was stored in the second story of the
building next door. It Is damaged to a great
extent by water. The safe ooutalnlug the
books, papers, etc, of Mr- Griffith, was recov

North Third street, are damaged by water con
siderably. The back office was burned out. The cellar
contained a large amount of sulphur, soda, oils,
etc. TbtBe were damaged to a large extent by
the aqueous element. The first floor was also
deluged, and a large quantity of goods d rim
aged. No. 135. occupied by C. H. Rrutlh,
dealers in machinery, was likewise flooded,
though not to suoU an extent as the bulldlug
adjoining.
The Ore raged for about one hour with un
ceasing violence. It wus dually subdued by
tbe indefatigable eirorts of tbe firemen, and the
proprietors have commenced to oouut up their
losses at the hour of this writing, and of oourte
it Is impossible to furnish the oorrect amount,
but it will be considerable

The Cabinet met punctually at half-past IS
o'clock to-day, all the membcis present, In

this It is inferred that tho amnesty proclama

General Banks.
General Banks had a short lntervlow with the
President this morning before the Cabinet meet
ing. There Is no significance tn this. The report
that Banks will be tendered a seat In the Cabinet
are absurd. Banks Is a member of tho Ord
nance Committee, and is here on public basl
nees.
The Antl-Mllitarjr Proclamation.
It Is estimated that it will require 25,000 copies
of the President's civil-supremacy proclamation
to supply the Treasury Department alone. AU
custom-house officers, mint employes, internal
revenue collectors and assessors, their assistants
and deputies, are to be suppliod. The order has'
also been sent to General Grant to supply all
his subordinates with the precious document.
It excites much ridicule, aad will cause a brisk
trade In the waste paper market.
