Molina', June 18.—A further advance of 10 per cent• -in the premium on gold, bas caused a feverish and excited market for merchandise generally, and as buyers and sellers are widely apart in their views, trade bad been brought to a stand.

WEST PrirLADELTEtia.—Perhaps no more disagreeable day oould be possibly conceived than was that which has just passed away, and last night it finished itself off in as vio lent a wind storm as we are seldom blessed with. We were not among the church goers, and so can only report at second hand, that all the reverend clergy officiated at their usual posts. The fair at the Walnut Street Presbyterian Church, which closed on Fri day evening, re-opens. again to-day.

It caved on Saturday, pre cipitating a loaded ice cart and horses into the abyss. It extends over half the width of the street. Half the pavement likewise is gone. It is very dangerous.

Mr. Efutchinson's fine new house, on Thirty-sixth street, is nearly fin ished, while the tallow factory of Mr. Owen Hughes, on Market street, opposite the Pennsylvania Central depot, is in, a similar condition. Not so,however,with the Chest nut street bridge, where they did compara tively little work last week. About three fourths of the eastern span was paved, and they still promise to have it open on the coming Fourth of July. At the Police Station but five cases were beard yesterday morning, three of drunken ness and two of suspicion of larceny. The parties were severally named Jno. Sullivan, Thomas Johnson and William Giyen. They occupied an out-of-the-way shanty in an old •field near Gray's Ferry; whence they nightly ,issued to commence depredations, more especially upon the spring -houses of farmers living in - the vicinity of Darby, stealing everything they could lay their hands on, butter, poulty, meat, pies, cream, milk, and whatever dry goods were left out to bleach.

The police at first imagined that they were breaking up a gang of burglars. They were committed. The only case this morning was of a man named John Granfield, hailing trona Ohio; who was arrested yesterday, •in a farm house out on' the Lancaster pike. The farmer gave him his dinner, and treated him very kindly, when he suddenly claimed possession of the house as his own, and en deavored to turn his host out of doors. He was evidently insane. Alderman Allen committed him to answer the charge of as sault and battery. At the Almshouse we found the recapitu lation of last week's business as follows: Admissions, 100; discharges, 81; deaths, 14; elopements ' 26; births, 4. Census, to-day, 2,874; same time last year, 2,435, Relative increase, 389, CHARGED WITH ROBBERT.-A. colored man, named Clarence Miller, was brought to the city from New York, last night, and was locked up in the Fifth Dis trict Police Station upon the charge of lar ceny. It seems that about ten days ago two colored men from the country stopped at the boarding-house of Mrs. Johnson, also color ed, at Dujonceau and Locust streets, and the next morning missed their carper-bags. A negro,thief, named George Betz, was ar rested, and declared to Lieut. Connelly that Miller had stolen the articles and pawned the goods. Upon this statement, and other evidence, Miller was arrested in New York MUCH ADO Anotrr NOTHING —Last night about twelve o'clock an individual residing on Tenth street, below Shippen, raised the front window and commenced springing a rattle very furiously. The whole neighbor hood kecame excited in a few minutes. Windows were raised and night-caps were continually popping out. A policeman was soon on the steps of the house, and after some delay was admitted by the occupant, who declared that there were robbers about. The officer made a thorough search of the premises and in the bath-room discovered a cat making a noise in the endeavor to get out. ATTEMPTED BIIEGLABY.—Wm. Debois John Miller and Charles Norwood were be fore Alderman Fitch, last evening, on the charge of attempted burglary. Early yes terday morning they were watched by Officer Shields, of the Twentieth Ward, and finally one of them was discovered in at tempting to effect an entrance into a house on Sixth street, above Parrish, by using "nippers." Shields sprang his rattle and Officer Matthews came up. The two police men succeeded in capturing the party. The accused were committed for a further hearing. COURTS.
