The ceifmorrles connected with the celebration ofte-day the celebration of "Holy Wednea tey".malnly consist in the singing of the firs Miserere, a service which is frequently known as the Tenebrw, from the dirkneas wuich prevaUes the sanctuary during Us colo- Tt ls'done by chantluR at the close of the snr- vices theyuljtate version of the 60th Psalm, ommenolng with the verge "Miserere mci, Den, secundum magnam misericordiam tuam" Have mercy on me, O Utttil according to Thy great meroy." Its first performance takes Slace this afternoon, at about 4 o'clock, and it i then repeated successively on Maundy Thurs day and Uooa Friday, the two following days. As performed at the great Cathedral of St. Peter's at Home, this is an exquisite musical own position, the accompaniment of the organ tvad the voices of one of the finest choirs In the irorld rendering It extremely graud and lm urouiivft. At ml. Peter's alone has It ever beon presented In a manner that was saocosslul without any qualification. The present rendi tion of It oricinated on Holy Wednesday, In the vear 1619. when the customary service was chanted In a new and entirely unusual saanner, the verses being sung alternately in symphony, Vsrlnnn eomnoKem afterwards esayert fresh adaptations of the Mhercre, but for a long time tha mml. nrppKHlnl wan that of Urntorlo Alle- erl, a lUman who entered the i'-pal College of inirTs lniltt29. It wns Anally ecllnsed by the Mimnoslilon of Bal: but since 1821 those of Bainl, Bal, and Allegil have been snug snc oesslvely on the three days of Tenebrw, the i.i.inrt.no. at times, bolna: blended together. The different verses are sung alternately in jumntK' nnrl ninin r.hant from the beziimlniz to'heeuu. The performance or the Miserere Is accompa nied by the following ceremonial: la addition 'to the six lights which are always to be found on the altar, the triangular caudelabrnm sup porting fifteen tapers is placed upon the epistle alde.tbe three branohes;of the candlestick being typical of the Holy Trinity, and the fifteen lights of our Saviour and the Prophets who 'preceded Him. At the oouolnslon of the reoltal of each Psalm, one of the fifteen lights Is ex tinguished: and, finally, during the singing of 'the EenetUctus,he lights on the altar and tnose Above the rail are also extinguished, that at tbe top of the triangular stand alone remain- ' Ing, to typify our Havlour as the light of the ''World. The Bmedictu conoiuded, t he only re maining light Is bidden beueathlthe altar for a time, and durlog the Bloom which ' then pervades the sanctuary tbe solemn service of the MUervre is performed. A short prayer follows, and then is heard a mmbllnsc ' noise, to represent the commotion which all nature underwent at the crucifixion of the ' Bon of God. The extinguishing of the fourteen lights represents tbe death of t tie prophets, and that of the other lights on the altar the moral darkness Into which the Jews were plunged by 'the death of Christ; while tbe candle which typifies our Saviour is not extinguished, but merely bidden for a time, in token of the toot that although His humanity underwent the pains of death, Ills divinity was not thereby objected to a similar penalty, but enabled Him to rise again from the dead to typify Which resurrection the hlddsn candle 13 re stored to Us place on the altar at the end of the In order to declare more appropriately her concern for the sufferings of the Havlour and Abe sins of the huaian race, in the office of the SVc6rte tbeOburcti lays aside every expression of Joy and festivity. Those impressive Invoca tions In which the Lord is sought to open tbe Hps of His people to sing His praise are omit ted, as Is also the doxoiogy, Gloria Patri. The blessing of God upon His people, In the DomU nut vobUaim, is not asked; nor are the people Invited to nnite In tbe penitential prayers, or to express their assent thereto by the custom- ary acclamation of Amen. In this city, although the Tcnebrm will bn celebrated, especially at the Cathedral, with f reat solemnity, no attempt is made to chant ho version of the Miserere in use at St. Peter's, ' Kome. Neither does tbe choir participate In tbe ceremony, as Is there done, the entire office being performed at the allar by tbe students of the Theological Seminary. A Swisdleb. Officer Dun lap, of the Eighth ' District, arrested a man name i Samuel Wat son, at Ninth and Green streets, yesterday, upon the charge of swindling. The prisoner nod a bearing before Alderman Massey, and was held in $1000 ball to answer. His mode of oDeratlne was as follows: He would enter a store, and, purchasing goods, order tbe same to be sent to a railway station, where be alleged payment would be made on delivery. He would be on band to receive the messenger, and in every Instance Instructed him to return to the store to get him change for a twenty dollar bill, but was very particular to take the change from him on Ms return, saying that he would step Into the office or an adjoinlug store and get the larue money for him. The result -would be that Watson would decamp with the money, and leave the messenger in charge of the goods, awaiting bis promised return.

Suddards was called to prove that tbe firm of which ho was a member bad uo wheat ia their house, and it was not likely that the porter could sweep up three boss of such property.

A Terrible TrtKC1y Recently Enacted Three aien itllieo. yrom the St. Louis Jiepublicun, March20. In tbe telegrams yesterday a brief account wa' frlvcn of a terrible deei ol blood perpetrated on board tbe steamer Bene oi Aiemphis, at laiaaa A'o. 10. Additional particulars have reached us. which we hasten to lay oeiore our readers. About lour o'clock on Wednesday afternoon three men came oa board at Stuart's lauding. and stated that tbev wished couvejanc9 to Crsig's Landing, some distance above. Two of them are Drotnere iameu uarneu; toe tnira is as vet tmknowD. Ail were armed with shot guns aud pistol?, but as this is a common prac tice in that section of the couutry, nothing was thought of the circumstance, and it occasioned no remark. Onno&ite Watson's Landioe the Belle was hailed and took on bourd a Captain Lane, his wife, and two children. A brother of tae gen tleman and a Iriend bv the name of Edward, who accompauisd bim as far as the stage plank. witnessed and t bared his late. The Darnells ar-d their comrade appear to have besn on tbe loreeastle of the boat, and while Lane and his family were going up the siairg, one of them shot bim in tbe bick, iuflictiiiR a niorti l wound. The other Darnell, standing on tbe other side ot tbe gangway, oeuius two passengers, immediately levelled his gun and shot Lane's brother, who whs slill on the banlc, killing bim Instantly. The third member of tbe gant completed the triple murder by shooting Ed wards, then forty yaras airtani and running for his life. The latter fell. to the ground, writhing with agouy, wben tho miscreant deliberately went ashore, walked up to his victim, shot him again, and thus finished the work of death. Captain Lane, In a dying conditicu, was carried on shore by the crew of the steamer, and left iu tbe midst of his horror-stricken family. Tho anguish of the widow and father less children, thus rohbed in an instant of busbanilj and parent, may be immagined.but not described. Alter this wholesale slaughter, one of the &'t assiiiB quietly told the Captain of the Belle to "take good care of the lady and chil dren ts they were nice people, and he would nay all tbe expense?." He aud his companious then depaited unmolested, tbe passengers being apparently so paraly xe d by the scene as to be unable tojeven attempt their arrpst. It is supposed that the fatal affray originated in a family feud of long standing, as we learn that Capta"n Lane was about leaving the neigh borhood permanently when butchered in tbe mauuer we have described. Tbe DarnelU pro bably knew of his luteudod departure, and boarded the steamer below in order to wreak their vengeance. The w hole thing was evidently carefully planned and systematically executed, and, in fiendish atrocity, cannot be t urpaseed in the aim a la ot crime. Korrlssey's fhllanthronr, Mromth$N.T. Courier. On Saturday night, pome weeks ago, a gontle man was walking leisurely down Broadway, apparently very much occupied with his thoughts, when he was interrupted by an appeal for cbaiity. On turning to see who had accosted him, he saw a woman about thirty-five years of age, wan and thin, but who still retained traces of former beauty, and who, from her manner hud evidently mixed with the more reflued" classes of society, She said that her husband was bedridden, ber children sick andfamUhlug as well as suffering from the cold. Tuo gentleman thought a moment, and came to the conclusion to accompany the woman to her homo, and, if her story proved true, to re lieve ber. Having Informed her of his inten tions, she willingly led the way, and upon their arrival at a tenement-house In Baxter street her staUment was folly and fearfully corrobo rated. The sick busbsnd and three children, scarcely covered by their rags, were cuddle! together m a corner, trying to keep from freezing by combining the warmth ol their bodies, anu their pinched countenance plainly showed tb at cold was not the only thlni? they suffered from. The gentleman promptly sent for a tibjs'clan, and then gave tho woman a roll ' K.blSr-Mr Ivnad tO a-ilddfit I to u . ..j -w.,ttr8. He waited nntil the I physician arrived, when he ordered blm to attend to the suffering family and send his bill to blm. The humanitarian relused to give the woman his name, but her husband recoguized in their vlfltor no olber than John Morrlssey, member ot ConRres. Ia speaking of their good fortune to the boine agent who nad charge of the tenement, he confirmed this statement, as did also the physician, for Mr. Morrissey had plvcn him his card. This incident was com mnnica'ed to us direct Iroru the houe ageut alluded to, and is undoubtedly correct. BON. Tf. A. RICH AIID SON.

He was for several jears Commis sioner of Insolvency, and has held the import ant r flice of Judge of Probate for the county of Middlesex for the past thirteen years, of which be Is tbe present incumbent.

The number of White Pine companies organ ized lor operations on Montgomery aud Call lornia streets Is Ift't getting up into tbe hun dreds. In tbe White Pine district it-elf practical mlnlnK aud prospecting are only excep tionully possible, by reason ot the extreme coll and snow, but tbe business of forming corpora tions 1n this city goes on with increasing energy, and there is likely soon to be a very heavy production oi metal from snug bank accounts and old purges, ecding in the develop ment of a huge wild cat. Tuat some of the mines placed on the market, and bringing prices already raoglng from $10 to $100 a share, arc really valuable, is a fact that may not be disputed; but it is impossible thit three fourths of the "locations" will realize what is reported of tbem lo credulous buyers. A Pyramid of Ice. From Vie Concord (N.H.) Patriot, March 22. Henry Gardner, of Franklin, has a fountain upon his land which is supplied by so powerful a si ring that its stream has not frozeu duriusr tbe winter. It is located on the brow of a bill.

It is thirty feet iu circumference, twelve feet from the ground, twenty at the height of eighteen feet, eight at twenty, and t ivo and a hnlf at the height of twenty-two and a haif feet. At Ibe height of ten feet it Is twelve and a half feet in diameter. In one side is a cave sutliciently large for a child to hide in.

We are often asked why are sot other reme dies in the market for Consumption, Coughs,' Colds, and other Pulmonary affeotiona equal to Dr. L. Q. C. WISHART'S PINB TEES TAR CORDIAL f We answer 1. It enrcs not by stopping oough, but by loosening and assisting nature to throw off the unhealthy matter collected about the throat and bronchial tubes, causing irritation aad oough. 2. Most Throat and Lnng Kemefiles are oompoEed of anodynes, which allay the oough for awhile, but by their oonstringent effects, the fibres beoome hardened, and the unhealthy fluids coagulate and are retained in the sys tem, causing disease beyond the control of our most eminent physicians. 3. Tho Tine Tree Tar Cordial, with ita Assistants, are preferable, because they re move the causb of irritation of the muooua membrane and bronchial tubes, assist the lungs to aot and throw off the unhealthy se cretions, and purify the blood, thus sc'untiJkaUg making the cure perfect. The truth of whioh we have living witnesses who were onoe given up to die. Bead the certificates subjoined, and call at Dr. WISHART'S GREAT FAMILY MEDI CINE BTORB, and examine our file, and go and consult living testimonies, which are more satisfactory than reading or hearing of the wonderful onres of Dr. L. Q. C. Wlafl ART'S MEDICINES: Reading, Pa Da. Wisbabt Dear Sir: I have been cured, as I believe, of Consumption, by the use of your Pine Tree Tar Cordial, and I was so very low, and had been sick so long when I commenced to use it, that I had but little confidence in anything. I had tried many of the advertised medicines, as well as the prescriptions of several eminent physicians. My symptoms were a dry, hacking oough, "J whioh I had had for several years, with night sweats and frequent severe bleeding of the lUDgs. x was so very weas mat 1 oould attend to no business, and had pain almost constantly through my breast and shoulders. About four years ago my brother, who resides in Philadelphia, told me he believed your medioine would care me, and I commenoed its use. I was aware that my disease had cone so far that I could not expect to be oured in a few days; but in a short time I felt muoh letter so muoh so that I was able to attend tt my business; and, after continuing its use for several months, I reoovered mv health and strength perfectly. I am oonvinoed that this Is not a mere cure, as I have been gradually growing stronger ever since, and I attribute it solely to your Pine Tree Tar Cordial, for I know that I must bave gone to my grave years ago, if I had not used your great medioine. 1 would say to 4 inose who are Bimuariy amiotea, especially in cases like mine, where the disease has run for a long time, that although one bottle wll relieve, it will not effect a cure; but by perse vering in its use, I believe it will restore yon to health, if you are not beyond the power meaicme. ubs. l,. b. ballads. No. 658 Penn street, Reading, Pa. DYSPEPSIA I DYSPETSIA I Db. Wkhabt: I have been a oonstant sufferer with dyspepsia for the last eighteen years, during whioh time I cannot say I ever enjoyed a perfectly well day. There were limes wnen tne symptoms were more aggra vated than at others, and then It seemed it would be a great relief to die. I had at all times an unpleasant feeling in my head, but latterly my sufferings so much increased that I became almost unfit for business of any kind; my mind was continually filled with gloomy thoughts and forebodings, and if I attempted to change their current by reading, at onoe a sensation of ioy coldness, in oonneotion with a dead weight, as it were, rested upon my brain; also a feeling of sickness would ooour at tha stomach, and great pain in my eyes, accom panied with which was the continual fear of losing my reason. I also experienced great lassitude, debility, and nervousness, whioh made it diffioult to walk by day or sleep by night. I became averse to society, ana dis posed only to seolusion, and having tried the skill of a number of eminent physicians of various schools, finally oame te the oonolusioa that for the disease at my present age (forty five years) there was no cure in exlstenoe. But, through the interference of Divine Provi dence, to whom I devoutly offer my thanks, I at last found a sovereign remedy In your Dys pepsia Pills and Tar Cordial, which seem to have effeotually removed almost the last trace of my long list of ailments and bad feelings, and in their plaoe health, pleasure, and oon tentment are my every-day companions.
