The Troubles in Spain.
The progress of the great Spanish . revolu
tion. headed by General Prim, against the
Cabinet, the throne and dynasty of Queen
Isabella, is reported to the last moment of
advices from Europe. The very latest des
patch is dated in Madrid on the 11th of
January, about midnight. It states that the
Queen's army, marching in three columns,
had compelled the insurgents to quit their
position in the mountains, and that they
were endeavoring to retreat into Portugal.
Ministers had requested permission
to arraign General Prim ; but we
are not informed that he had been arrested.
Generals Milans de Bosch, Novilas and
Contreras were allied with Prim, and there
is no doubt that they had an enthusiastic
support from a great force of the military,
as well as from the entire population of
some of :the provinces. These facts were
made evident by the official alarnl which
existed in Madrid, martial law having been
proclaimed, all political associations and
clubs having been dissolved, and even the
royal children being shut up in the palace.
The main strength of the revolt was
to be found, previous to the latest
despatch, at three points, viz.: in the neigh
borhood of Madrid,in the west on the Porta
g. nese frontier, and in the east in the district
lying between >Toledo, Valencia and the
Andalusian frontier. Prim remained in the
east, and even yet there is no authoritative
news of his defeat. General Concha, who
had been replaced by Marshal Serrano, ar
rived in Madrid on the 9th of January. In
Barcelona the troops had been attacked by
the populace and fired on the people in
return,killing some of them. The most intel
ligent writers attribute the exciting causes
of the movement to the wretched impover
ishment of the Spanish people and the demo
ralization produced all over the country by
the intrigues of the politicians and clergy
and the writings of a strictly party press.
England and France were inclined to sym
pathize with the royal cause; but the jour
nals of both countries draw attention to
the dangerous effects of these serious spas
modic military revolutions in the neighbor
ing kingdom. Marshal O'Donnell will take
his revenge on Prim should he fall into his
hands.
A FILLS DE REGIMENT.—The officers of
the 18th Illinois regiment held a meeting at
Camp Butler, 111., on the Bth inst., for the
purpose of contributing means for the sup
port of Jennie Irvin, an orphan girl, whose
father, a veteran soldier of the regiment,
was killed while on his way to Springfield
to be discharged. The officers pledged
themselves to "protect, educate and main
tain" this child of the regiment until she
arrives at lawful age.
CHIEF JUSTICE TURNER, of Nevada, is
now at New York, and in a speech on
Thursday evening, he_ called attention to
the fact that the State within five years has
secured thirty-five thousand. population,
thirty-six millions of wealth, and seven
daily papers, besides building nine cities
and the finest roads in the world. He
spoke of her wealth; and mentioned, as a
significant circumstances, the fact that out
of Virginia City goes daily now a ton of
silver bullion. .
THERE are twenty-eight candidates now

A Ersua Shot and I Milled at Nation - 111
Guards' Hall.
This morning, about one o'clock, a young
man, named John.Maloney, wasp shot and
instantly killed in the vestibule of the 11 . -
tonal Guards' Hall, in Race street. Fred
erick Paul, who is alleged to have fired the
fatal sliot, was arrested immediately. llt
seems that a ball was given at the hall last
night by the Invincible Base Ball Club.
Maloney and Paul were both there. Between
twelve and one o'clock this morning; Paul
and' a friend went to Clawson's saloon
opposite the hall to get something to
eat. While they were there three men
entered the place and had something to
drink. They then had some hard words
with Paul, and talked about fighting with
him. There was no evidence before the
Coroner's jury, however, to show that Ma
loney was in this party. One of the men
seized Paul by the throat, but beyond that
there was no fighting. The parsoon
went out, and in a few minutes
Paul left
the saloon. When he reached the hall he
was attacked by the same party. A pistol
was fired and Maloney, who was standing
just inside of the door fell. The ball entered
the left eye, passed through and lodged' in
the brain, where it was found this morn
ing. Death was instantaneous. • Paid.,
who ran up stairs after the
shot was fired, was pointed out
as the man who fired .and was arrested by
officers karlin and iOdenheimer. He was
searched, but no weapon was found. He
said that be was attacked and he was pro
tecting himself.
Maloney the deceased, was only 19 years
of age. He resided with his mother on
Swanson street below Mead.
Paul, the prisoner, 38a native of Germany.
He is about 25 years of age, a single man,
and resides at No. 227 Christian street. He
is a member of the Niagara House Com
pany, And at the time of the arrest had his
fire coat and shirt on.
THE YOUNG MAENNERCHORRALL,which
takes place at the Academy of Music on
Monday night, will be one of the most bril
liant entertainments ever given in this
country. The arrangements are truly per
fect and the entire affair will be of the
grandest character.
As we have previously stated, the mem
bers of the Society are endeavoring to build
a Music Hall t and are making extraordinary
exertions towards procuring the necessary
funds. Thus far they have been very suc
cessful in their efforts, and it is expected
that their grand ball will assist them ma
terially in their laudable enterprise.
Over $6,000 have already been expended
in preparations; a well-known New York
costumer has been induced. to open a branch
establishment here, to aid this professional
brethren in supplying the demand for fancy
dresses, which will be of vast variety. Rich,
handsome, outré, ridiculous, amusing, and
ah urd.
The ball will open with a grand proces
sion of all the characters, which will be fol
lowed by miscellaneous divertissements,
which our German friends manage so ad
mirably. Delegates from several New York
societies will be present upon the occasion,
and will lend their powerful aid in the
vocalization, and the general carrying out
of the programme.
HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—Last ntght, about
ten &clock, Mr. Daniel Mcßride, an elderly
man, who resides near Twentieth and Ship
pen streets, was attacked by two men,while
in front of the residence of his son, at Nine
teenth and Shippen streets. One of the
fellows seized Mr. Mcßride by the throat,
and the other took from his pocket a silver
watch valued at $75. Young Mr. Mcßride
came out of the house while the scuffle was
going on, and chased the robbers some dis
tance but was unable to catch them.

estina Ceremonies.

of Trinity College, Hartford, Conn., as
Bishop of the Diocese of Pittsburgh, were
held on Thursday in Trinity Church, Pitts
burgh, Rev. C. E. Swope, A, M., Rector.
It was expected that at least twelve or
fifteen Bishops would participate in the
ceremonies, but it was not possible for all to
be present who had expressed their inten
tion of doing so, in some cases, in conse
quence of official business requiring their
attention elsewhere. ; Much disappointment
was felt over the absence of the Right Rev.
Bishop Stevens, of Philadelphia, who was
quite ill, so much so, as to require mbdicar
attendance. The following Bishops, how
ever, were present on the occasion—Right
Rev. John Henry Hopkins, D.D., LL. D.,
Bishop of Vermont, and presiding member
of the House of Bishops; Right Rev. Charles
Pettit Mellvaine, DD., D. C. L., Bishop of
Ohio; Yight Rev. William Rollinson Whit
tingham, D. D., LL.D.,Bishop ofMaryland;
Right Rev. John Williams, D.D., Bishop of
Connecticut; Right Rev. Arthur Cleveland
Close, D.D., Bishop of Western New York;
Right Rev. Robert Harper Clarkson, DD.,
Missionary Bishop of Nebraska and
Dacotah.. •
The presence of so many prelakes arrayed
in their elegant and;costly canonical vest
ments was an imposing sight. They were
seated within the chancel,the Right Rev. Dr.
Ifophins. occupying; a prominent place as
consecrating Bishop. I At his right sat the

Whittingha.m and I the Right ReV.
Dr. Talbot, andon his left the Right
Rev. Dr. Coxe, Right Rev. Dr.

The Bishop elect was 'lmbed in a plain rochet
and occupied a seat immediately in front of
the chancel, -hetweenithe Rev. Dr. Page, of
Allegheny, and the Rev. C. E. Swope, or
- Pittsburgh. On ani adjacent chair were
laid the canonical Vestments of the new

that the robe was a gift from the ladies of
- the new diocese;
As soon as the Bishops were seated, the
Bishop elect took his place, attended by the
aboVe named presbyters,' in front of the
chancel. The regular morning service was
then commenced. < After a'grandVolnntary
on' he organ by Professor Matson,the open
ing sentences and the prayers, to the Venite
exultemus, were read by the Rev. John F.
Spaulding, A. M., of Erie, Pa., who, also,
pronounced the absolution, and after the
Venite read the psalter, which consists of
the 1191 h. Psalm, the responsory verses be
ing read, and the Gloria Patri sung by the
choir to an Anglican chant by Dr. Hayes.
The first lesson, sth chapter of the Book
of Wisdom, was then read by the Rev
Morison Byllsby, of •Meadville, Pa. The
Te Deum (Boyce in A) in the key of A
major, was sung. The second lesson was
then read by the Rev. Richard S. Smith, of
Uniontown, Pa., after which the Jubilate
Deo, (Boyce in A) was sung. The Creed,
and the subsequent prayers, with one for the
Right Rev. Bishop Stevens, who is ill, and
one of the collects, were read by the Rev. S.
B. Fuller, of Pittsburgh. The 106th selection
of Psalms, to the tune of "Dundee" was
then sung.
The Ante-communion service was then
read. The Rev. C. E. Swope read the 104th
hymn, which was sung to the tune of "Old
Hundred."
The Right Rev. Arthur Cleveland Coxe
Bishop of Western New York, then as
cended the pulpit and delivered the conse
oration discourse.
The Reverend Bishop based his remarks
upon the following passage of Scripture:—
"And he had in his right hand seven stars;
and out of his mouth went a sharp two
edged sword; and his countenance was as
the sun shineth in his strength."—Bevela
flans, 1 chapter,l6 verse.
The distinguished prelate said, that the
consecration of a Bishop is a solemnity , of
the gravest character. The head of the
church had stretched forth His hands and
said, "Peace be unto you," and such was
the case, to-day, with every preacher 0,
Christ, who understood by faith that wha'
Christ has promised, lie was bound to
perform. He exhorted his brethrea to
drink largely , from that spiritual rock,which
is Christ, and look with eyes of faith for the
coming of the Lord Jesus in His abundant
glory. In the providence of God, was laid
upan him the uncoveted task of preaching
the consecration sermon on this occasion
and the only dampener to the effort was the
absent% of a Bishop, whose work included
the founding of this new diocese. After an
allusion to Bishop Hopkins as Bishop over
the whole country,. he said that many preci
ous memories of the past rolled before his
mind, as he stood with the Bishop elect. He
had known him long and intimately, and
he could bear witness to his noble labors, to
his Christian course, through good and evil
report. The sorrows that fell heavily on
his brow gave him an apology for not de
clining, and none rejoiced with a
fuller heart than himself to see one
so well-iitted placed in the high
position of a Bishop. The uew diocese had
grown out of the prosperity of the old one,
and the day was to be a memorable one in
the establishment of the new See—a day of
progress, toward a policy he desired to see
universally adopted by the church—toe
erection of new Sees, not the division of old
dioceses, and there was something in the
fact that the old mother Diocese of Bishop
White set us the example. The reverend
Doctor proceeded to explain the meaning of
the text, and applied it to the character of
Episcopacy. as viewed by the Church.
There were errors in the primitive Churches
which Christ rebuked because they had of
fended His rights, bnt as if to confirm the
covenant He had made with His people, He
ppeared among those Churches and placed
His everlasting honor in them. He referred
to the divine origin of the Episcopal Church
without entering into any argument to
sustain it, as he claimed it an already
established and immovable fact. He men
tioned, however, the opposition it had en
countered, and proposed to strengthen the
position taken by the church by a brief
review of questions which grew out of the
text. The only ministry ordained by Christ
was the Apostles. They were never to fail,
and He promised to abide with them until
the end. He stated what churches were
committed to the care of the Apostles,
showed how they labored in building them
up in God's glory, and argued from the fact
of tbeirdivine appointment and the char
acter of their work—that when the Apostles
died, it was necessary successors should
be appointed in their stead. He passed to
consider the subtle operations of Romanian,
and called upon the Church to fortify the
Master's ground. The Church must not
forget its scriptural origin—this must be its
ambition It owed It to the country and to
God to widen and deepen its power for good.
This new diocese would make its own re
cord. What would be its character? He
counseled it to be steadfast in the faith—
fight down all heresy,and keep aloft the
banner ofEmmanuel. Theßev. Bishop then
closed with an address to the Rev. Doctor
Kerfoot, in which he took occasion to al
lude to the brief period he had filled the
office of a Bishop, on which account he
refrained from giving counsel, but he spoke
very tenderly to him of the vast responsi
bilities he himself felt, and believed that
the Bishop elect would soon regard the life
of a bishop as he had come to regard it, in a
far different light than he could have before
conceived. He cordially welcomed him to
the office of prelate of Christ, and invoked
the blessing of Almighty God upon his
Episcopal labors.
The Consecration Service then oom
menced, the Bishop-elect being presented
by Bishops Whittingham and Williams.
The testimonials:were read by Rev. Messrs.
Ten Broeck, Pa., Rev. Dr. Passmore, Wis.,
and Rev. Mr. Edwards, ;lid. The Bishop
was robed by Rev. Dr. Page and Rev. Mr.
Swope, of Pittsburgh. At the conclusion of
the Consecration, which was in accordance
with the imposing ritual of the Episcopal
Church, the congregation was dismissed oy
the Senior Bishop with the Apostolic Bene
diction.
The music on this occasion was admira
bly performed. In was conducted by Pro
fessor Edmund A. Matson , formerly of
Boston and now the o ganist of Trinity
Church, Pittsburgh. Tile choir consisted of
well-trained male voices the singers being
divided into two well-balanced parts and
the service being rendefed in a correct anti
phonal style.

THE TRIAL OF GENERAL BAKER.
The Trial of General Baker.
WASHINGTON, January 27.—The trial of
Lafayette Baker, before the criminal court,
has developed some interesting facts in re
lation to the detective system and pardon
brokerage.
It appears from the testimony of Lieut.
Hine, that in July last' he was detailed by
the Assistant Secretary of War, and placed
at the disposal of Baker, and directed to act
under his orders.
He was introduced to Mrs. Cobb, the
plaintiff, as Captain Howell, an ex-Confed
erate captain,who was seeking for a pardon.
She told him she had great facilities for
getting pardons, but would not tell what
influence she had used. Hine drew np a
'statement or petition, and signed it as
Clarence J. Howell, and affixed a spurious
magistrate's certificate.
This he presented to Mrs. Cobb, who said
anything could be done with money. A
contract was entered into, and the pardon
was procured. The money paid to her had
been marked, and this money was after
wards found on her person and taken from
her. It was a part of the money used to
entrap the pardon broker.
The witness acknowledged that he made
false statements to her. During the proceed
ings Judge Hughes, as counsel for Mrs
Cobb, spoke of the witness Hine as a; co
conspirator with Baker, and in order to
break up a legitimate witness, these self
constituted guardians of the honor of the
Government induced this lady to do the
very thing they professed to be anxious to
break up.
Even a thief cannot be convicted if money
is placed in his way by conspirators to
entrap him, and the conspirators are justly
execrated, and now Baker and his co-con
spirators and a man who drew a false
and fraudulent paper and acknowledge that
it was such and who forge a magistrate's
certificate need not put on a look of dignity
and talk to me. The days of bullying are
past and the courts of justice are wide open
and oppressors and midnight robbers
must come under the law sad their deeds
must be known and spoken of.
These remarks were followed by applause
which was suppressed by the Court. and the
Marshal was directed to clear the room if it
was repeated.

Additional 63 r ;C ourt /eeommodations
ItteetilisT:at e
At noon a meeting of the - members of the tier was
held In the Supreme Court • room, for the pnrpOSe of
urging the propriety of additional court accontmoda•
Lions, and to suggest the appointment of additional
Judges for the city of Phlladelphia, and more - ade
quote compensation for the Judges.
Mr. Eli K. Price was called tu the chair, and Henry
S. Hagert woe appoi^tedßecretary.
Mr. Shippen addressed the meeting. suggesting that
th etobject which had called them together required
deliberate and careful action,otherwise the object they
bad in view would be defeated, He submit ted the fol
lowing resolutions:
Resolved, That the subjects :for the consideration of
which this Bar has been convened, be referred to a
committee of five, to be appointed by the chair, in or
der that the same may be carefully considered.
Besotted, That said committee be requested to report
at an ad ourned meeting of the Bar, to be held this day
'week, what aetion,in their judgment, ‘shall be neces•
eery or desirable in the premises, and the said cons.
mittee shall confer with the Judges of the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania, the Justices of the city and
county of Philadelphia.
Mr. Wistar, in seconding the resolutions, considered
the subject of very great consequences to the commu
nity as well as the members of the bar. In spite of
the well-known defects, they have been allowed to
remain tor years because the members of toe bar bar
not taken the trouble to create a public opinion, and
thus secure a reform. The member, may have differed
in opinions.
Some may be of opinion that we ought to have a Be
pantie Criminal Court, a separate Orphans' Court, and
a Court of Equity, but we must steer clear of all these
things, and hate but one object in view—additional
Court accommodations. We have a bill In the Legis
lature adding one Judge to the Common Pleas. That
Is not enough. Four Judges will not be sufficient to
do the work. At least rive will be required, and the
members should take prompt action in the premises.
The report of the committee should be made by Satur
day next.
Mr- Itemak suggested thatprompt action was needed.
e feared lithe subject was postponed by reference to
courts the meetings would be smallerand smaller until
all interest would die out, What we need is additional
court room, additional judges and increased compen
sation. These can only be secured by going to Harris
burg. Philadelphia imposes upon three judges what
is C bne by eight judges in New York. The compensa
tion is totally inadequate. Look at these salaries! The
three judges of the Court of Quarter Sessions jointly re
ceive less than the amonnt paid to the District Attor
ney who presents the cases l The City Solicitor is an
other instance. He receives more than thejudges. All
this must be explahaed:to the country members of the
Legislature. The city members understand it, but toe
country members must understand it. The Committee
should therefore go to Harrisburg.
The speaker referred to the necessity for increased
court accommodations. The present court. rooms are
very defective and must have an effect upon the health
of the members of the bar, as well as thejudge.
Mr. bhippen said be presented his resolution in order
to have a little deliberation. Some gentlemen were in
favor of making the Quarter Sessions a separate court.
Another favors the appointment of as additional
judge to supervise the equity branch of the court.
Mr. Clay favored Mr. Shippen's resolution.
The overwork complained of in the cases
of the Judges arose from the multi
plicity of jurisdictions. If there was a judicious
separation of these jurisdictions, the remedy might
be reashed. As to the Legislature the spaat - er bad
some experience in former ) ears. He bad gone to
Harrisburg and given his testimony in regard to the
wot k imposed upon the Judges. The result was that
the Legislature increased the Baler tes of the Judges
the munificent sum of VOW This was sufficient
indicate the advantage of a Committee to go to Har
risburg. We must rather have a consultation and a
definite plan arranged before any action should be
taken. •
