LOYA' SALUTE IN BALTIMORE
Score at Toronto.
Toßolm°, April 6.—The city is excited by
the reported sailing of the Fenian Expedi

going to Bermuda is a blind, and that Que
bec is the destination of the Fenians:
Information that is deemed reliable has
been received that the Fenians are putting
guns in the vessels at Chicago, and have
two schooners loaded with field pieces for
an attack on the Western borders. We are
on the eve of another great alarm.

DIDN'T MEAN Im.—Alderman Pottenger
had before him this morning, a raw-boned
Irishman, who gave his name as John Ma
bony. The complainant was Mrs. Mahony,
a rather delicate looking woman. She tes
tified that she suffers from the frequent
abuse of her "liege lord." "You know, Al
derman," said she, "John comes home full
of whisky and then he kicks up a row. I
generally get three or four blows, from his
fist; and they hurt a great deal. He always
says that he didn't mean it, but he strikes
me so often, I begin to think he does
mean it
"Well, John," said the Alderman, sternly,
"this is very bad—what do you mean?"
"Why, your honor," was the reply, "I
didn't mean to hurt her. It wasn't me that
struck her, it was the whisky."
Alderman—"l have met such customers
before. Whisky is no excuse. Yon will
have to go below."
Mahony was then taken to Moyamensing,
where he will have to go without his supply
of the "ardent" for sometime.
THE ALMSHOUSE.—At the last meeting
of the Board of Guardians of the Poor, a
large increase in Clip pauperage of the Alms
house was reported, amounting :to 596 over
the number in the institution the :previous
year. This did not apply to the Insane de
partment, however, where, instead of an
increase,:there was a diminution of seven
patients; the whole number under treat
ment, March 31, 1865, being 567, and on the
same date in the present year, 560. This is
quite a subject of gratification.
Thebusiness of the whole institution yes
terday exhibits something like a general
average of the doings in pauperdom. There
were four deaths; 1 from insanity, in insane
department; 1 from chronic:diarrhcea, and 2
from old age. There were 13 admissions,
49 discharges, while 9 eloped and 2 were
bound out from the children' asylum.
The business of to-day will probably be
much heavier in the way of discharges as it
is regular committee day for that purpose,
only however, for females.
STEALING DRY GOODS BoxEs.—For some
time past the merchants on Market street
have suffered from the larceny of boxes
which had been left on the sidewalk over
night. This morning about one o'clock the
Sixth Ward policecaptured two men named
John Mcßride and John Kelley, while in
the act of removing boxes from the front of
the store of John B. Myers ctz Co., Auc
tioneers. The :prisoners, in explanation,
stated that tbeyhad been engaged by parties
employed in the establishments to remove
the boxes, but an investigation by the po
lice led to a different supposition. The
yards attached to the dwellings of the ac
cused were found piled up with boxes, and
it is thought that they have been making a
regular business of stealing the boxes and
selling them. The defendants were locked
up at the Central Station, and have a hear
ing this afternoon.
ROBBING A VESSEL. —John J. Brown,
Robert Hughes, William Lewis and James
Diamond, were arrested yesterday after
noon, by officers Grimes, Girard, Morris
and Denard, of the Harbor Police, upon the
charge of having robbed a schooner lying
off Gloucester, N. J., of a coat and some
stores belonging to the vessel, and a silver
mounted revolver, the property of the cap
tain. The alleged thieves were in a sail
:boat, and were pursued to the city by the
captain of the schooner, who hailed the po
lice barge. The latter was started in pur
suit of the sail-boat, and after a hard pull
and an exciting chase, succeeded in over
taking it off Cooper's Point. The stolen
property was recovered, and the occupants
of the boat were taken to Camden, and held
for a further hearing by Justice Cassidy.
BOLD HOUSE ROBBERY.—The dwelling of
Chas. Reynolds, No. 963 Warnock street,
was entered last night through the front
door, which had been left unfastened for
Mr. Reynolds, who is a conductor on the
Citizens' Passenger Railway. The thief
proceeded to the upper part of the house,
where Mrs. Reynolds and a child were
sleeping, and took from the buread two
boxes containing about $l3O in money, a,
silver watch and chainand several articles
of jewelry.
HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—This morning,
about one o'clock, a man named Peter
Knecht. while passing along Vine street,
near Thirteenth, was approached by a man
who inquired the time. Mr. Knecht drew
out his watch, when it - was immediately
snatched by the other. The robbery was
so sudden that the thief had got off some
distance before 'Mr.-Knecht recovered from
Jiro surprise. He then gave chase and fired
two shots at the robber, but was unable to
capture him.
LARCENY.-A colored man named Robert
Grove 'was arrested yesterday afternoon for
the larceny of a piece 'of muslin, valued at
$l2, from:the' front of a store , on Market
street, below - Eleventh. The stolen muslin
was found in his possession. Grove was
taken before Ald. Jones, and was held in
$6OO bail for trial.
Run Ovxu.—A little boy named Allen
Needles was run over by a hay wagon, this
morning on Sixth street, near Poplar. He
had one of his legs fractured, and was taken
to his home. 'The lad attempted to cross the
street immediately in front of the horses.

A. DUEL IN Misstssippr.—The following
letter, written in Vicksburg, Miss., March
26th, comes with the name of the writer, as.
an assurance of the truth of his statements.
The writer is unknown to us, and we print
the story for what it is worth: l• As I was
going to my gin-house last Saturday morn
ing, one of my servants reported that some
white men were fighting in the woods ; I re
paired to the spot and saw six men, two of
whom were fighting with swords. s I ap
proached, the tallest of the two struck the
other across the face with the blade, then
parried and ran him through. He fell ex
claiming, 'Gentlemen, I am killed,' expiring
in a few moments. The@ victor ;quietly
wip ed th e blood from his sword with his hand
kerchief. Two of the men said, 'Colonel,
you hav_e_finished that Yankee: he is dead,
come, let us mount and go; these Yankees
will look after their dead friend.' A colored
boy came with horses. The victor said,
`Gentlemen, my friends are in haste to go;
is there anything I can do for you? I hope
you consider this matter has been settled
honorably.' The party rode off. I learned
from the attendingphysician that the affray
arose from a political quarrel. The victor
was an officer in the rebel army, named Col.
Mclver. the slain; Major Tomline , of Ver
mont, late of the U.S. A. Volunteers. This is
only one of the many duels occurring here.
If a Northern man comes South he must
prepare to fight—be will have many oppor
tunities."—.N. Y. Tribune.
CHINESE COINS.—E. J. Lake,Esq., of Chi
cago, has secured from Rev. Justice Doo
little, for twenty years a Missionary in
China, a complete set of Chinese cash, said
to date from 245 B. C. down the present dy
nasty. The earlier specimens, before the
time of Christ, are of most uncouth shapes,
some resembling a razor, others a padlock,
although the common shape is circular,with
the customary square hole in the centre,
for convenience in stringing. In size they
vary from three inches in diameter and
half an inch in thickness (in numismatic
measurement, size 48) to coins of the size
of the nickel cent. Accompanying the col
lection are a few samples of the old Chinese
legal tenders, five-twenties and greenbacks,
which to the ignorant eye might seem the
wrappers of tea chests.
BAD TIMES AT PITHOLE.— The Pithole
_Record says: The collector has been busily
engaged for nearly two weeks, and has not
collected one-fifth of the taxes assessed, and
there is a fair prospect that a large amount
of the sum will be lost altogether, by parties
leaving town and so disposing of their
effeets as to leave nothing for the collector
to lay his hands upon. There is no dis
guising the fact that times are hard here
now, owing to the extreme dullness in the
oil market, and the feeling of insecurity in
money matters caused by the recent heavy
bank failures.

THE EITSCOYALIA.N.—The Episcopal Re
corder, published in thiscity, and the Chris
tian Times, published in New York, have
been united, and will be published sunuita
neously in this city and New York. The
first issue of the new paper, published to
day, says: "It is due to the Recorder and
Times to state that the step was taken, not
from any pecuniary necessity, since these
journals were never so independent and
secure in all their finances as at; the time of
their discontinuance. but from a conviction
that the union would be productive of the
best results to religion and the Church. The
interests of these journals were always the
same. For a period of forty-three years the
Recorder held the even tenor of its way,while
for the last twenty-five years the Protestant
Churchman, latterly known as the Christian
Times, walked harmoniously by its side.
And each might still continue to pursue an
independent course and meet with uninter
rupted prosperity; yet, there being no rea
son why two such good friends should to
in any degree separated, it is deemed best,
on the whole; to make the nnion'perfect.
Hence, therefore, the two journals will ap
pear as one. In this movement we shall
confidently look for the approval of our
friends, whose interests we hope thereby to
greatly advance."
TEE FarEn3rAN's BUREAU.—In retired
rural districts there are comparatively
small chances for obtaining information on
political topics; but the following might be
considered wholly inexcusable in any other
than a New Jersey Copperhead :
He said he was !glad the President had
vetoed the Freedmen's bill. "But what are
your reasons?" inquired a bystander. He
replied : "'Cause the Black Republicans.
wanted to give every damn nigger down
South a bureau, while half the white folks
haint got none."
Bystanders saw no further need of dis
cussing the question.—N. Y. Tribune.
