Local Odds and Ends. Another godsend to the street contractors the rain of yesterday and last night. Lieutenant Pritchard is still on the police force. Whlttier and Lowell edited the old Pennsyl vania Freeman. Collector W. H. Barnes, of the First district, is dangerously ill. The bathing-house question will be decided to-morrow in Select Council. Our truthful friend Sam Josephs 8 ays he never made a cent at the Legislature. Ilenszey is anxious to be a participant in the next United States Senatorial fight. The anti-slavery folks will have a grand time at their final meeting to-morrow night. The Democracy were decidedly jubilant yesterday over the decision ousting Gibbons. Ghegan, Congressman O'Nell's right bower, was defeated last night. It is all up with O'Neil. The agent of the Reading Railroad at the Legislature was one of our city representatives. "Send the cattle along to get their slop" is a vulgarism well understood by our legislators. ''Lish" Davis, it Is said, is already packing tip his traps for an emigration to Venango county. Mayor Fox haB not yet signed the bill approving the sureties of the Delinquent Tax Collector. The Fairmount Park Commission are about roofing in the circle from which the Park car riages start. What are our nigh Constables paid for ? Surely onr citizens should not be taxed to keep tip sinecures. The Twenty-second ward Republican meet ing, on Monday evening, turned Into an anti liong association. Hong's majority last year was 427, In a dis trict which gave a Republican majority of 1000 lor every other candidate. The journeymen slipper-makers have struck, and the employers, with the exception of two, are ready to accede to their demands. Why don't the "figure head" appoint the negro policeman ? Is he afraid of the unterrl fied of the Fourth and Seventeenth wards ? Auditor-General Hartranft spent a few days in the city recently. He will be a prominent candidate for the next Gubernatorial contest. One of Sam Joseph's pets enjoys a soft berth as clerk of one of our High Constables. In former days these officials could all read and write. One of the city Senators received five hun dred shares of the Sewage Utilization Company for services rendered at the last Legislature. Who was it? Now that an error has been righted in the case of the District Attorney, would it not be well to inquire if there was not a mistake made in favor of Daniel ? The Legislative mill on South Fourth street is visited daily by the late members. Are they all so sure of re-election that they ar? commenc ing thus early to "set up" matters for next winter? No less than eight bills passed the late Legislature with precisely the same names as corporators. Rumor has it that these charters were disposed of at the legislative junk shop on South Dourth street. We are asked "by what authority do police men arrest pea-nuts and send them below ?" We really can t answer, but would refer our correspondent to the ornamental head of the department. Perhaps he can tell. The Commissioners of Fairmount Park de clare that no person shall be permitted to brln led horses within the limits of Fairmount Park, and any person bringing any horse into the park grounds that is not harnessed and attached to a vehicle or mounted Dy an equestrian, euau be guilty of a misdemeanor, and liable to a fine not exceeding five dollars.

We give the following statement as we our selves received it: Early this morning, whilst the Hibernla Fire Company was proceeding to the fire at fliteentn ana Walnut streets, they were met at Eighth and Walnut by a large crowd of the members and adherents of the Moyamen- sine Hose Company, who had evidently been lying in wait for them. Not being prepared for battle, the Hibernla halted, and for a time both companies refused to move. At length the Mora started off and turned up Tenth street; the Hi bernla then started out Walnut street, but on reaching Tenth street they were attacked by the Moya roughs (who had returned") and severely bandied. Andrew o. uascy. ot tne iiioernia. was badly beaten, as well as several others. The Mayor should at once investigate this matter. The Hibernla members, after returning home, fathered together a iarpe crowd and proceeded with their carriage to Eighth and Fitzwater streets, where they raised a cry which was soon responded to by tne Mova. Another row en sued, and the carriage of the Hiberniawas taken from tne members. many the tumult subsided, and the carriage being recovered . the Hibernla returned home. Richmond and York River Route to the South. The large steamer State of Virginia, on the Richmond and York River line, made her first trip from Baltimore to West Point, Va., on Friday. She is 250 feet long, and fitted up In a style of magninceece surpassing anything run ning on the Chesapeake Bay, and equalling in all respects the famous Sound and North river boats from New York. The State of Virginia Is commanded by Captain L. W. Freeman, a very popular and agreeable gentlemaa, who has bad years of experience on the Bay steamers, as sisted by the clever and amiable James W. Biddle, clerk. Next week the fast steamer Ad miral will be placed on the same line, under the command of Captain Phil. Reybold, son of Anthony Reybold, of Delaware City, and his clerk. Mr. V. B. Cavender. The Admiral is being fitted np in the same splendid style as her consort, and the two will supply a want long felt by the travelling community, under charge of ercntlemcn of acknowledged ability and per sonal worth. The boats leave No. 90 Light street, Baltimore, at 4 P. M., on the arrival of the noon train from Philadelphia, and arrive in Richmond at 9 40 the following morning. By this route passengers are insured a comtortabie night's refit in wide, new, and clean berths, and they reach the capital ot Virginia early next day, and it is the only route to the same point by which tne rest is undisturbed, ine State of Virginia was built at Cleveland, Ohio, and ran on toe lakes as the Northerner. In 18b3 she was brought east, and for some time was favorably known on Long Island Sound. Recently she has been completely overhauled, and received new eneino and boners irom iNeaue s Levy a 6hops of this city, and now is first-class in every particular. Ibis line IB Decoming quite popular inrougn the energy ot tne general agent, iteuoen foster, Esq., No. 90 Light street, Baltimore, and the elcirant accommodations furnished the travel ling community. Arrangements are now being made to extend the Richmond and York River Railroad from West Point to Chesapeake Bay, and when the extension is carried out it will shorten the time from this city to Richmond via Baltimore to iourteen hours.

The Mississippi Abduction Case Some weeks ago we published the facts relative to the abduction of a little girl by her uncle from her home in Mississippi. The uncle was captured in Manavunk by Lieutenant Kelley, and the father of the child notified. A telegraphic reply was received stating that the father would at once visit this city, ine prisoner, wnose name was Cessna, was given several bearings, ana the father (bis brother) not appearing, be was discharged. Yesterday a Mr. E. A. Arrison, a prominent merchant and manufacturer of Crys tal springs, Mississippi, arrived In this city lu search of the little girl. He stated that after receiving word of the arrest of his brother the girl s father was taken suddenly ill, and re mained so for some time. Recovering, he rode thirty-five miles to Mr. G.'s residence, and re quested him to come on here. After Mr. G. fully satisfied the authorities that he was the right party the child was produced, when she immediately rushed np to him and hugged and kissed him for joy. She then turned round and asked If she might not go home. Both left for Mississippi last night. On the kampaoe. Yesterday afternoon a colored Individual named John Cook, fired with Nick Brown s poison whisky, visited the bouse of another colored man, in Gillls' alley, and in sulted his wife. The husband, who was at work on the pavement, remonstrated, as did also a white man. lo silence the latter John seized a brick and, hurling It at him, inflicted a serious wound on his head. John then fled, pursued by several parties. Stopping, he drew a knife and threatened to kill any one that dared approach him. At this juncture Reserve Officer O'Grady chanced to pass, and seeing John's threatening attitude took him into custody. Alderman Colgan sent him below in default of 500 bail. Fire. About quarter of 2 o'clock this morn ing a fire broke out in the stable situated in the rear oi tne residence ot cuanes J. reterson, northwest corner of Fifteenth and Walnut streets. The alarm was at once sounded, and owing to the prompt arrival of the firemen the flames were confined to the upper story, where tney ongiuatea. ine norses, wagon, aarness, etc., were all saved. The fire Is supposed to have been caused by sparks falling from the pipe of one of the two stablemen wko had bue.n sitting up reading. Mr. Peterson cannot at pre sent estimate his loss, but the supposition is that it will not exceed 1500. A pet poodle dog pensnea in tae names. Accidint.

It has now extended to Ilurst street, Lisbon street and Alfred street, and is fast making its way north ward towards Pine street. The Almshouse is full of patients and the Small-pox Hospital has been rented ior tneir accommodation. Two ambu lance loads of sick are sent out to the last named establishment daily. In consequence of the prevalence of the fever Rev. J. D. Long, the Bedford street niisstonary, was compelled to close his day school yesterday. For the Information of those who may be stricken with the fever and who may not know where to sppiy, we state on the authority of Mr. Long that the ambulance starts irom the Mission, No. 619 Bed ford street, at 10 A. M. and 3 P. M. each day for the hospital, and that medical attendance can be bad by applying to him at the Mission. At the request of Mr. Long, the Board of Health has put on twelve whitewashes, ana the cellars will be closea to-day Three houses have been closed, and are being thoroughly cleaned and whitewashed. Tne Hoard oi ucaitn complain mat it is aencient in the funds necessary to carry on the cleanBlng ope rations In a proper manner, and if this Is the case Councils ought to appropriate any sum that may be needed without further delay. This Is a matter that concerns the welfare of the city, and it should re ceive immediate attention. Mr. Long has been urgent in calling attention to the condition of the Bedford street neighborhood, and he ought to be supported oy ine city aumoruies ana ine puono generally, we cannot afford to run the risk of having this city de vastated by a pestilence during the coming saminer, when by a little prompt action now such a calamity may bo averted, and a neglect to take the proper precautions will be nothing less than criminal. Mebtixo of the Agricultural Society. A regular monthly meeting of the Pennsylvania Agricultural Society was held in the hall, Ninth and Walnut streets, this morning, the President in the chair, ine minutes ot the previous meeting were read and approved. Mr. Austin, of Montgomery, was unanimously elected a member of the society. Mr. Job Jackson, from the Pennsylvania Experi mental Farm in Chester county, made a statement to the society concerning the present condition of the farm. The kitchen and otnee accommodations are very deficient, the kitchen in particular. This is so bad that no family can be found to occupy It. It has been thought nest to use the greater part oi ine recent Slate appropriation of 13000 In the rebuilding of the kitchen and the erection of a small omoe Duuoiog aoout ten feet square. A treat dlillculty is experienced In stocking the farm on account of the great want of means, me siock is not sumcieni to cuusume mo provender that Is raised. The farm might be ren dered lnlinltely more useful by the addition of fifty five acres of land adjoining the present larm, which Is offered for sale at a very reasonable figure. This is not to be done at present. The farm Is of little or no value as regards to stock for the purposes for which It was founded.
