In his charge to tTae jar:, Judge Dena, iu
substance, it:strut:led is regard to the
legality of the arrest that, W i t i;e or di n a r dy,
under the Hill of kights, no citizen may he
arrested without a warrant, yet there was ex
ceptions to this rule, miniely
- . -
Any citizen can arrest at si:;ht,for felony.

tore the ',cares': nlitg6trate. . . .

mitting a Ipvach o! . ia,tev, or any other
act of an indiviiinl a public nai:.
sauce, which tei,ik to v.. 0 immediate breach of
the peace.
Public drunkenness is a public nuisance, so
(lodated over and over tuain. In many States
it is a ent.j..- ) ct i f thdiettrnait. In this State it
is a subject of prosecutiee and so:ewers con
viction before a nrogistrate, en the theory that
it is a public nuis.ineo, not tending to injure
any individual specially, but. an outrage upon
the decency of one., Ali public nuisances
which tend to art immediate breach of the
peace may be abated at sight by a peace offi
cer without a warrant. For drunkenness,
which is shown by complete stupor of the in
dividual, and which cannot result iu a breach
of the peace, the proper remedy is summary
conviction and fine, is default of which the
prisoner ni-ey be imprisoned. But that s t a t e
of partail madness and delerium Witie i °flea
is the result of Minx:cation, may amt often
does tend to breeches of the peace. Thie, the
must frequent state of drunkenness, -is a. curt
start menace to the peace and gout order of
a community, trod it' the subject of driiirhelt
ness is round at the public depot of a railr,id
town, at the tin-e et the arrival and (lepertuee
of trains, as in this case, on a public holiday,
in a large crowd, and trout liar condition and
conduct the officer has re.as‘inable apprehea
sion of a breach of the peac9, he is justified in
arresting him when in that condition to pre—
vent an immrilii(te tireacii of the peace A vig—
ilant officer will not,rait until the horse is stolen
before locking the door, he will lock the door
first. If a man voluntarily puts himself in a
state of insanity by the use of liquor and then
places himself in a public place where in his
insane condition he is rianeerous to the peace
and order of a coram unity, lie cannot complain
if the law takes hold of hint and saves him
from harm to himself and harin to others.
lf, however, in this case,MeNinstry was not
drunk, or was not is a condition tending to a
breach of the peace, his arrest would be ille
gal and the eich , ndants would not be
bie for obstructing an of:iccr in !Le
of his duty.
Upon the question of :be anieenr., of love
necessary to make the arrest, the Court in
structed that: An of f icer has a right to use
such reasonable force its is necessary to ac
cornpilsh the arrest and proper detention of
the prisoner. It' he uses excessive force he is
committing an assault and battery, and his
acts are unlawful. His acts become unlawful
in so far as they are in excess of his authority,
and it he uses unnecessary violence or cruelty
he may be resisted by the prisoner, or inter
feied with b . y others to the extent of relieving
the prisoner from the excessive farce or cruelty
and sect. resistance or interference would not
be unlawful. The amount of force necessary
to make the arrest and condo et it to a suc
cessful issue is a question to be determined
by the jury ; and itt jalging of this they are
to put themselves in the situation of the offi
cer at the time and place of the arrest as near
ly as they can, and view the surroundings as
they appeared to the officer. In the hot of
fragmentary evidence, brought from a dis
tance, on another day, in the quiet of a court
room, these surroun (ing may seem altogether
difLrent from what they appeared to the officer
at the time of the arrest. The excitement or
sobriety of the crowd, the relative physical
powers of the officer his prisoner, the ap
prehensions of the officer in view of the stir
roundings, are ail to be taken itco considera
tion ill determining this - question.
In concluding Lis charge, his Honor re
maeked to the jury that ihe duty which they
Thad to perform iu this case was one of more
than oruinary gravity. The growth of popu
lation in towns and cities necessarily brings
together at public places, on holidays, large
crowds. The use of intoxicating drinks, prey
alent to a greater or less extent among th se
crowds, has a tendency to make the crowd law
less and turbulent. There seems to be really,
and especially of late years, in towns and
small municipalities, and even in the larger
towns (lid cities, a growing strife between
the law abiding element and the vicious and
lawless, a constant struggle on the one side
and on the other for supremacy, and this is a
snuggle which is not felt or duly appreciate('
in the rural districts of the State where there
:arc no considerable towns and where all are
law abiding, so that it is hard sometimes for
those who do not witness this contest to real
ize the imminent end constant daneer which
it threatens,

against Samuel and Creorge 'limes, and not
guilty as to George Miller. Tim experience
of this gentleman, tt ho it tippers is an lion

setting fire to the flour mill of Edmund B.
Orbison, eoq., at Orbisouia, causing a contl:.-
gration which entailed a loss of between four
and five thousand dollars worth of property.
The evidence against the defendant consisted
mainly of his own admissions, which seems to
show that he had taken shelter while on a
tramp, in the wheel house of Mr. Orbison's
mill, and during the night, feeling cold he lit
his pipe, and by accident set fire to the straw

A FATAL AFFRAY AT CONEMALTGIT.
—Two colored men, named Joseph Gibbs and
Andrew Mahttt, with other workmen were en
gaged in digging a trench in Conemaugh,
Calabria county, up to ‘Vednesday afternoon
a week. ago, e Len Gibbs left his work and

turned to the trench from the tavern in a very
quarrelsome mood, and finding his shovel
gene irons the place where he had left it, ac
cused M.ilatt of having taken it. Malatt de,
nied the accusation, and pointed out a shovel
to him as his own. Gibbs then became more
boisterous and reiterated the assertion that
Maiatt had it, when a scuffle ensued, but the
men were separated. Again, Gibirs made
a grab fur the shovel held by Malan, when the

A 1: RACE or ITEMS Fon. FABMERS.—
V:c• publish the foilowint; items for the benefit
of the litrincr readers of the JOURNAL :
The Middletown, Pa., Journal of January 8,
states that the other day Junes Young, jr.,
exhibited in that office "about half a pint of
corn that came all the way from the Andes
mountains iu Peru. It was sent to Colonel
James Young by Dr. D. B. Jackson, of
Sin Francisco, who obtained it from Messrs.
Parrott & Cu., of that city. The latter party
were twelve years in securing it. It was
ceeried a distance of eleren hundred miles on
the back of a mule, and the lack of facilities
fur transportation in that slow country, with
numerous detentions, from different causes,
allowed twelve years to pass away before it
reached its destination. The grain is enor
mous in size as compared with our own Indian
corn, measuring 14 inches. If it will grow
as large and produce as well on the farms of
Colonel Young, as it does in Peru, it will prove
one of the most valuable cereals ever brought
in the country. The Colonel will give it a
fair trial, and we shall watch his experiments
with interest, fir the benefit of our agricultu
ral friends.
A Centre county I:traler bas been experi
me:;hing in the ninnut%cture of a machine for
the cutting of corn toddin., and the o,litor of
the :3:•llefonte Repuldieln, who has exAcined
the machine, sacs this or it :
L!‘fr. John I. Thompson, of Martha, has a
way of preparing his corn fodder that, to us.
is quite new. (in a recent visit to his pleasant
place we found Mr. Thompson in the Kara
ilzre , sAind his corn fodder. Ile used one of the
old-fashioned little Slialilar threshers by
taking out the teeth from the front concave
and in their place inserting knives (made
from old scythe Itityles,) then feels in the
stalks. Toe result is that the fodder is cut
up tine and may he more conveniently stored,
tua cattle eat more of it and waste lest, and
it makes excellent manure, being rulied
and free from the stringy stocks so ol , jectiona
ble in corufodder compost. Mr. Thompson
says this is tile only satisfactory fodder-cutter
he has ever tried. It Is entirely his own idea,
but as he has not pttteUted the machine, we
give those who may profit by it the bcactit
of ibis description."
THE OLD POI TAUE RAILROAD —The
Fist Boat that was Transported Over the
.Atleyhehy ..71ountains..—Sherwan Day, in his
history of Cambria comity, printed about
forty years ago, gives this accouut of the first
boat taken over the Allegheny mountains, in
October, 1834, on the Portage railroad: Jesse
Chrisman, from the Lackawanna, a tributary
of the north branch of the I73nsquehanna,
loaded his boat named "flit or Miss," with his
wi'e, children, beds and family accommoda
tions, with pigeons and other live stock, and
started for Illinois. At Holliday - br where
he expected to sell his boat, it was suggested
by John Dougherty, of the Reliance Trans
portatiou line, that the whole concern could
be safely hoisted over the mountain and set
afloat ag,ain in the canal. Mr. Dougherty
prepared a railroad car calculated to bear the
novel burden. The boat was taken from its
proper element and placed on wheels, and
under the superintendence of Major C. Wil
liams, (who, be it remembered, was the first
man who ran a boat over the Allegheny
mountain.) the boat and cargo at noon on the
same day begin their progress over the rugged
Allegheny. All this was done without dis
Curbing the family arrangements of cookin7,
sleeping, Sc,:. They rested a night on the top
of the mountain, like Noah's ark on Ararat.
and descended next tnorninp: into the valley
of the Mississippi and for St. Louis.—

T HE sEcoND ME I SAW HER.
Fire part of thi,r poen+, entitled "Love at First
Siyht," can be had on application at Tower Halt)
P . 7 fit, Ilerrd i f Tow, 11.711,
Tin's lay last I had a toothache—
fiorribie beyond description—
And cold steel was recommended
As the very best prescription.
Sleep I wooed, hut, fickle moddesx,
Opium could not cajole her;
I must on some dental altar
Sacrifice the achkg molar.
So, I hurried to a dentist;
Reached his office in despair ;
Entered—Lo! before me sitting,
In the cushioned dental ch a i r ,
Was the maid with golden ringlets
I on Chestnut Street had seen,
She who stole away and left me
In the car at "Twelfth and Green."
Still upon her snowy shoulders
Felt the same bewitching curls;
But, alas! her "lips of coral"
Were no longer "couched on pearl.."
Not a tooth had they to rest on,
And I saw, to my dismay,
That the pearls which ble-sed my vision
Then upon the table lay.
She had had a tooth extracted,
And the pain had made her faint;
From her cheek the rose had vanished (?)
On the towel was some point!
She was from the swoon reviving,
When, oh ! horror ! Shall I tell?
Through an effort made in sneezing
To the floor her ringlets fell!
On the bead, by curls forsakea.
Hair was starting, coarse and thick,
But the shade was far from golden,
'Twas the color of a brick,
From my tooth, the pain departing,
Settled in my head end beart,
As no dentist could extract it,
I made up my mind to start,
And I also made my mind up
That when I again did write,
I would caution fellow creatures
'Gainst the drafts of Lore on Sight.
Trusting that no one will mention
"Priceless Jewel," "Beauty's Queen,"
I can bear to hear of" Twelfa Street,"
But let no one utter—" Gree n!"
It may be by some remembered,
And, perhaps, it may by all,
That the "ocean of my passion
Swallowed up the Tower Hall."
But the "traces of admiration"
Swell no more the ocean's dry !
Tower Hall is still existing,
Where you can your clothing buy—
Where, unlike the bard, you will ho
Si) re although you chose on sight,
For the prices are the lowest,
And the garments always right.
