STEEL PENS.—The Empire Pen Company
or New York, is introducing a new variety of steel
pens, which are destined to acquire great popularity in
our commercial community. A good pen is one of
those necessaries of life which almost every man,
woman and child can appreciate, and whin is by no
means as common as all necessaries of lite should be.
The steel pens which the Empire Company are now
manufacturing are of various sizes and characters,
adapted to different mercantile and business uses, from
rho broad strong bank pen down to a delicate article.
which will serve for inditing a lady's love letter. The
several styles of pens are designated by national titles,
:ma as "Ten- Forties," "8 even-1 hirties." "Ifive-Tw
ties," and "Greenbacks" They are put up in very
pretty gross boxes, and well deserve the extensive pa
tronage which they already enjo principalw York, and
are rapidly securing here. The agent for
them is far, Wm. G. Perry, Arch street, although we
believe they are to be had at some of oar other sta.
boners.
Boy SHOT.—A boy named Joseph Steel
was shot in the arm yesterday morning at Ninth and
Moore :streets. It seems that a man named Hugh
Moon, while drunk, went into the house of William
Cook and laid down. Mrs. Cook went out and told her
bushand. The latter went to the house and got into a
diorite with Moon. The two finally got into the street
land the row was increased by the appearance of two
gongs, known ea "Garotters" and Henke:re," who had
quite a fight. Then Cook went to the house of. Tames,
:Idennatin to get a gun with which to shoot Moon.
Monnafin handed him the weapon and he fired at
Moon. The ball struck the boy, Steel, whe was passing,
sad broke his arm. He was taken to his home. Moon,
Cook and Bonnafin were arrested, and after a hearing.
before Aldermad Lutz, were committed' in default of
$1,090 bail for a farther hearing.
SUBURBAN VANDALISM. -- On Sunday
morning, a few hours before sunrise, the repoae of the
nabbank at Germantown was disturbed by several
companies of the city firemen, and one or two of the
Aiiimmultown companies. They paused up thu pain
street. stripped the lawns and gardens of flowers and
foliage, and returned crowned with the !beautiful spoil
laden upon their hose carriages and upon their persons.
These firemen call such an expedition an excursion—
the Germantown people call. It an incursion, and ex
pect to find means to protect themselves in future.
WEST PHILADELPHIA never looked more
or felt less like Spring than it did this morning. The
baptism of the long-looked for, long-prayed for rain.
added brightness to the brilliancy of the fair Penton
May. who is "wearin' of the green" Bet Sunday was
a day of positive terror—in the morning. The ther•
rnometer at 56 0 , and a wind blowing almost like a hur
ricane, sending up broad belts of dust, that rendered,
pbssengers on the opposite side of the street
semi invisible. And the destruction of bonnets and
the soiling of dresses in the church going portion of the
population was anything but pleasant to the unforta
pates: Nevertheless the churches were well attended.
The "Bereans," with Mr. Cooper, and the Thirty-sixth
street. both Baptist churches. were fully attended. The
Presbyterian, on Walnut street, Rev. Dr. Miller, had
a larger attendance than could have been expected
under cut-door circumstances, that eminent divine
being about to vacate his pulolt for some weeks, the
Bev. B. W. Crittenden taking his place. He leave.; to
attend the meeting of the General Assembly, New
School, at Bt. Louis.
At the Insane Department, Rev. FrariCia O, Featreon
cfnciattd, preaching from Song of Solomon, 2d chap
ter, 12th verse—" The flowers appear on the earth, the
time of the singing of birds Is come, and the voice of
the turtle is heard n the land." It was pleasantly
appropriate. and would have been enjoyed to a greater
extent but for the sudden storm that arose without.
The elements produced no slight effect upon the audi
tors, and It required all the vocalization of the volun
teer choir to subdue, or rather tranquillise, some of the
patients. a ,

Finance and Ilusiness,malayl4,lB66.
The announcement of the failure of a large Third
street banking house, caused quite an excitement in
financial circles this morning. and has had a very
depressing effect at the Stock Board, unsettling
prices and causing much distrust. The suspended
firm have for a long time past been the prominent
"bulls" in Hestonvllle Passenger Railway, which,
influenced by their combination with other parties,
was run up from *l7 to $45 per share, thereby fearfully
fleecing the "aborts:" But the bulls were not strong
enough to carry the load, and the stock rapidly fell to
40, 35, 30, 28 on Saturday, and to-day at 27 at the open
ing, and at 20 at the close.
Government Loans were held stiffly. The Coupon

another more stringent substituted. • '
