The walls of the Ludy of the church are divided between the windows by fluted pilasters, which support a heavy cor nice, and the ceiling is paneled as are the walls between the pilasters. The pulpit recess, by the magic of perspective, has been deepened fourfold, and by the manage ment of light and shade the Artist has pro duced an effect the admirable deception of which requires a practised eye and a steady gaze for detection. Around the arch above the pulpit, in delicately shaded and appro priately ornamented letters, is the inserip tlon "Wonsuir rue Lone IN TILE BC.tCTY OF IIuLINI:•s." The pulpit has been repainted, a pure white with a delicate touch of gilding on the projecting, ornaments, the effect of which is remarkably chaste. The prevail ing color, or rather tint of the decoration is neutral, and with a subdued light will give an air of quiet and repose particularly appropriate in a church interior. The seats have been repainted in a sober color, and the front of the gallery has been lowered seven inches, giving its occupants an uninterrupted view of the pulpit. The frescoing reflects great credit upon the arti,t, Mr. John J. Selling, of Reading, and the appropriateness of the improve ment is in no stank measure owing to the Pastor of the-church, Rev. J. H. Menges, who,e taste indicated the general character or the decoration. v 4,f di;•inlieritanue :y to have you do though I had nut tune by the way of at the Judge ended gment of his son's itation to come v ineumberance Le ocyl; n roll of notes e , tit4 said !natter of wife has comuni, re Set' p1.11 ,, 11q than refu4ed to 1 I twooliFed to IV C were inarricd -1.:;r1) the ;r:1-1 afar 11.1=. 11111111,1 y, ticitll for roeollo of x:Inl t•uthoning ion ur,oinuci tel hi , lienrt ith and gratitude corre-Tondent the f,illuwing good t ~ f Penn,•cl%ania 1:14 the con fu u I I: 'l,n 1.1,e \V- 111.

The omnibus was filled with lady passengers. who were very much alarmed, but the ve hicle was secured from following the ani mals into the drain, and its freight relieved from a precarious and not very ph,asant berth. Ropes were speedily procured and after considerable exertion the horses were drawn from their perilous situation. The work was not of easy accomplishment, from the confined space iu which the animals were jammed, and but fur their admirable docility would have been possible only at serious risk of injury both to the h.)rses and their rescuers. The wood-work of the bridge, excepting the flooring which was but recently relaid, was, upon examination, found to be almost, and in the case of the fractured timber entirely rotted out, and the whole eulvert in a most dangerous condi tion. The accident came so near proving a serioug, perhaps fatal one, that the borough authorities wisely decided upon securing the sewer from futtire liability to similar mis haps. The council at once ordered the drain to be arched, and our efficient Su per of whom, it may not be out of place here to say, that he is the most active and able officer that has served the borough in at similar capacity for years, had the job under headway at an early hour next morntri, We are grateful to learn that a few scratches were the only injuries sustained i,y Herr's tine horse , .

In a short time we obQerved a crowd had collec ted, and, on inquiry, found that the trav eler had been taken with a fit—whether elide:ale, apoplectic, or superinduced by un wonted contact with water was very uncer tain; the prevailing opinion, however, seemed to be that it was brought on by die appointment in not getting a drink at the Washington. High Constable Derrick was sent fur and a vehicle procured, in which the unfortunate straggler was carried to the Hospital. We have not been able to ascer tain his subsequent fate. If the man was suffering from else than drunkenness he assuredly received every attention from Richard; if, on the other hand, as isprobable, strychnine whisky was at the fAmthttion of the evil he has not failed to obtain his deserts at the same handy. Aottosre POLICE ITEL—.One day this very dull week as Associate Justice Welsh was enjoying his after-dinner nap, in the tepid atmosphere of pleasantly mingled fumes of fried oysters, shaving soap and hair oil, which pervades his temple, he was startled and brought down from the realm of dream-, where he reveled in a celestial game of bil liards, and was in the act of executing his favorite coup, (pocketing the white ball,) to semi-consciousness of an intruding pres ence. With instinctive readiness the 'Squire murmured "with costs of prosecution," and waked to Sind himself holding out hi • hand to a very seedy Greek who announced him self thus: "I'm Jahn Poen, from Moblin! Have ye iver a spare cptather ye emid. lied a boy?" After considerable search the Justice suc ceeded in landing a coin of the required amount on the top of his desk, satisfactorily proving possession of the coveted :+nm. lle then pointed to a sign on the front of the desk immediately under the Spani-h piece, and requested John to read the Fame.

Of this extensive establish ment we can only sneak form hearsay, and form our opinion from the notices of our Baltimore exchanges which are united in commendation of the arrangement of the' premises, the qualiy of tho wares and the dealing of the proprietor. We copy the following from the Baltimore Republican: The furniture establishment of Mr. A. Mathiot, Nos. °0 and 31 North Gay street, between Fayette and Frederick, is one of the largest furniture. warehouses • in the United States. __We very much doubt if there is any similar establishment near as large, unless it is one where the workshops, show rooms, &c., are all comprised in the some building, which is not the ease with this. The building, or rather the two build ings, which aro thrown together by the partition wall being removed have a front of upwarils of 40 feet on Gay street, and extend back 170 feet to Frederick street.— They arc six stories high, and devoted solely to show rooms, except three small apart ment.-:, which are used as a finishing room, an upholstery shop, and a counting room. The lower story is on a level with Freden ick street.

The , eoond floor, that on a level with Gay street, contains a great variety of furni ture, which is placed here, we believe, more as samples of styles and descriptions than for purposes of sale. Ou the third floor is a magnificent dis play of parlor furniture, comprising splen did rose-wood, walnut and mahogany tete a tote-, sofas, arm and parlor elmirs, cov ering-: of richest brocatelle, plush and hair cloth; al-o, every variety of etegere or what nut-.

He accordingly struck for Baltimore, via Harrisburg, reaching York in the ten o'clock train, where he found officer 'Waring on the look&ut, and much to his surprise he ;was :ammo transferred from the Baltimore to the Columbia train, en route fur Lancaster! It will be recollected that Mr. Cadwell had offered it reward of tt , 5U fur his apprehension. Decker says that he can get out of that prison in about four Idace front the time he is re-instated; but badly as the prison was constructed, we judge it will puzzle him to escape the vigilance of the officers a second A B Cos OF Fut:km:v.—A short time ago, a bold act of forgery, displaying much adroitness and cunuing, was perpetrated in this county. The facts of the case as far m they Irate transpired, as we have Leen able to a..certain, are as follows: About too months ago a Jew, residing in Columbia, and generally known as Freder ick A. Miller, came to this city, and in ac cordance midi a preconcerted plot, visited one or two legal gentlemen to sec if they would procure a certified copy of the deed of a property belonging to Mr. Itint. Eckert, Jr., of Paradise township ; ns he wished to purcha-e it, and desired to know_ if he had a clear title—free of all encumbrances,— In company with two legal gentlemen, he had a certill s edeopyof checked taken according to the form., and it is supposed that lip in:- immediately went to Columliiat forged a mort gage by means of this certified deed; for S 3,000; had an accomplice to personate Mr. Eukert; and then went before F. LI. Ebur, Esq., where the legal acknowledgement of the instrument was made. The mortgage was then brought to this city and properly recorded in the Recorder's office, Miller signing the receipt in the Entry-Book. Thus f,tr no susphziun had been aroused, and the fact that he had legal gcnthmea to examine the records, showed hlra to have been careful and guarded is his acts. He even went so far as to pay one of his legal advisers six dollars fur assisting in the ex amination. After: he bad : the mortago recorded, lie took it to Phila4elphia,.nnd proposed selling it fur jewelry. The merchants to whom he Made the offer, wrote .to an' attoroey in this city, to see If the title to the property upon which the mortgage was given, was good, and to furnish all the information requisite. An answer was sent that the property re ferred to was worth ten thousand dollars, and that the mortgage offered for sale was the only one. Miller then received in ex change some twenty-five or six hundred dol lar's worth of jewelry, with which he left and has not been heard of since. The mortgage is entered es having been given on the 14th June last. The land upon which it is given, is divided into two tracts, one containing one hundred and seventy seven acres, and the other thirty-five, more or less, and is situated in Salisbury town ship. This is the first instance of the kind on record, and is considered by those who ought to know, the boldest piece of forgery ever committed in this coun Daily Times. A Case of Poeket-Picking. It is as Mr. Brown, of the Stuck Ex change, that I am now addressing the pub lic. I had occasion some few months back to go to toy bankers in Saint James's street, to draw the sum of fifty pounds in gold, for the purpose of defraying certain household expenses. The banker—although it was during panic time—delivered it to me with out a murmur. I kept my hand over the pocket in which it lay, as a bird forsakes not her nest when it has eggs in it, from the very door to that of my own, on Ludgate Hill: yet when I got home it was gone.— The loss itself did not' affect me nearly so much as the method of the losing, I knew where another fifty pounds was to be got without much inconvenience; but whither that fifty pounds was gone, and by what miraculous means, was indeed a question. The pocket which my hand had covered was inviolate and without a holein it. It could scarcely have happened that any thief, hav ing ripped it open, would have the courtesy, as well as the skill, to sew it up again as I came along. The problem so worried me, took so strong a hold upon my mind, that I sent for Inspec tor Ferret, of the detective police. "Ferret," I said, after I had pat him in possestion of the circumstances, "now, who can have got this money?" "Tom Daddies, or else the Spider, sir," he replied coolly, and without the least hes itation; "one of these two—certain; 'which of them, depends upon whether Sou lost the money east or west of the Bar. Tom takes all the Strand, and the Spider has Fleet street and the Ilill, hero." "Well, now," I said, "let me base a per sonal interview, Mr. Inspector, if you please, with the gentleman who has transferred this property of mine to his account. Of course, I will pass my word not to employ the arm of the law against him. But I very much want to know how the transfer was effected." Ou the same afternoon the Inspector in formed me that Mr. Daddies was the new proprietor of the sum in question, and that he would pay me a visit on the following morning, early,"with explanations. Accordingly, while I was at breakfast, Mr. Daddies called. He was a thin, not ungentlemanly looking young man, soberly dressed, and having a rather conspicuous air of modesty and diffidence. "With regard to the money, Mr. Brown," he said, "I saw you going westward along the Strand, with the intention of procuring specie---" "How did you know that?" interrupted I. "You bought, sir, at a shop close to Som erset House, a saffron-colored linen bag, such as is used fur carrsingmoncy, and you dangled it in your Laud when you come out." "Ass flint I was!" I cried Mr. Daddies smiled forgivingly: "I never left you," he continued, "from that moment until you reached Saint James's street-- When I saw you go into the banking-house, I hacked myself at two one that I should relieve you of your money. When I saw you conic out with the money in your left coat-tail, instead of buttoned up in the breast-pocket, the odds rose to five to one. I knew it was in your left coat-tail, because you kept your hand there." "And," I said, impatiently, "I nevertook it out again; that I can swear to." "You did not take it.out fur a long time, sir," remarked Mr. D.ddles, applauding moderately, "you gate me n great deal of anxiety, I mist confess. But you did take it out at last." "Where?" cried I, "where? If I did be fore I got home, I'll be hanged." "Don't say that, sir," replied my new acquaintance, rather severely, "don't use an expression of that kind, whatever you do. You stopped at a print-shop on the west side of Temple Bar, and then my last hope began to expire; for, a few steps more would have taken you into the Spider's ter ritory, and my chance would have anished." "Why did you not cut the bottom of my pocket?" I asked, intensely interested. "Because you would Mice missed the weight of the coin," explained Mr. Daddies. "Nothing remained fur sue, but to try• the fly-dodge." "A fly, Mr. Daddies? Explain yourself; I saw no fly." . "You felt it though, Mr. Drown, if you remember, upon the left cheek, and you took your hand out of yourpoeket:toramove it." "I see it 'all now." "That was it," assented :qr. Thomas:Dad dles, in conclusion, "and a very neat thing it was, too, though I say it." Honor prevented me from giving Mr. Daddies into custody; but I feel bound to warn all pedestrians against any attempt at fly-catching when a quiet, thin, too obser• want pickpocket is bp.—ifousehold tcorcik: JOC RNA L OF A DEFEATED •CANDIDATE.
