CITS' BmETLY.
Interesting Services.— For some time
past the First Presbyterian Church, North
ern Liberties, on Bnttonwoqd street, below
Sixth, has been undergoing: very extensive
improvements, the cost of which will be
about $13,000. The edifice, now one Of the
most handsome churches in the city, was
rededicated yesterday. The sermon in the
morning was preached by the pastor. Rev.
T. J. Shepherd, D. D., from Mark xiv. 6
"She bath wrought a good (or beautiful)
work on me.” The object of the sermon
was to specify that in Mary’s act, which
prompts our Lord to speak of it as beauti
ful, three things were specified, namely, the
large liberality, the thorough unselfishness,;
and the sublime faith of -Mary’s act.; These
points were illustrated at length, and in
conclusion were applied to the beautiful
work .which the congregation have just
completed. The sermon was listened to
with great attention.
In the evening Rev. Daniel Maroh, D. D M
pastor of the Clinton Street Presbyterian
■Church, delivered a discourse adapted to
the occasion. The services throughout the
day were well attended, and the discourses
cf an interesting charaoter.
The history of this ehuroh, since it first
started, has been ef the most satisfactory
character. Rev. Dr. Patterson, whose fame
as an ardent advocate of the truths of the
gospel, is well known, was the pastor for
nearly twenty-four years; he was followed
by the Rev. Dr, Carrow, who confined his
labors for four years, when the Rev. Dr.
Ely was called to fill the pulpit;he remained
with the congregation about eight years, at
-the end of which his failing health compelled
him- to relinquish his pastoral relations;
3tev, Dr. Shepherd, who succeeded Dr. Ely.
has labored among the congregation fifteen
years. There are at the present time four
hundred ahd sixty-five known communi
cants and three well regulated Sunday
Schools, numbering six hundred children.
The church schools are under the superin
tendence of Messrs. Wharthman and Lin
coln.
A Row and Sudden Death.— On Sun
day morning about three o’clock a disturb
ance occurred at Ninth and Vine streets, be
tween a number of men who had assembled
.on the pavement in front of the tavern at
that point. The disturbance for some time
consisted of loud and angry words, but
these ended in blows. The attention of the
police having been called, they interfered,
and while making arrests a man named
Henry J. Gideon, aged 53 years, attempted
to assist the police, and while thus engaged
he was seen to fall suddenly to the pave
ment, from a blow, it was supposed, from
some one in the crowd. Gideon was picked
up in an insensible condition and taken into
the tavern, but subsequently re
moved to the drug store on the opposite
corner, upon reaching which it was found
that the unfortunate man had died. Dr.
Bhapleigh made a postmortem examination
soon afterwards, and he failed to find any
evidence of a blow having been inflicted, but
did find that the deceased had died from
heart disease, an affection that he had long
suffered from. The deceased was removed
to his late residence, No. 318 North Eighth
street. The Coroner-will hold the inquest
to-day. The police succeeded in arresting
James Donahue, George Bodey, Joseph H.
Donnelly, Joseph Cook and JohnC.' Donnel
ly, who; were held- in §l,OOO bail each, to
await the result of the Coroner’s investiga
tion.
Chaeged with Riot.— Alderman Wil
liam McMullin, Thomas Doran, John
Tobin and Robert L. Lister were before
Alderman Beitleron Saturday afternoon on
the charge of having been concerned in the
row infront of Musical Fund Hall, on
Thursday morning. Officers Glenn, Wal
lace, Berger and Wood were at the scene,
and testified to seeing alLthe accused there,
and more or less active. Officer Gl6nn saw
a pistol in Alderman McMullin’s hand, but
did not see it discharged. When Officer
Steel was stabbed, most of the defendants
were in the crowd or On the edge of it; also
when Policeman Wood was knocked into
the gutter. Officer Wallace testified that
he had his revolver,'and that Officer Steele
discharged one load of his pistol. The de
fendants were held in §l,OOO, for a further
hearing.
City Mortality.—The number of inter
ments in the city during the past week
was 223 against 235 the same period last
year. Of the whole number 108 were adults,
and 115 children—s 2 being under one year

olic Church, to be constructed at Diamond

ammber of persons were in attendance.

_ T|*e Case °f Sanford P. Conover.
f>wiE at 4 Ur r, ay , Sanf ? r d p . Conover, alias
.{/babies A. Dunham, indicted for perjury in
connection with the conspiracy trial, was
brought into Court in Washington. Mr.
wooding, for the prisoner, after reciting a
history of the case, proceeded to argue the
demurrer to the i indictments filed on Fri
day. The grounds taken by him were that
the accused conld not be held legallv guilty
of perjury, inasmuch as the Judge Advocate
General, before whom his depositions were
qaken, had no authority to administer an
-oath, and that the Judioiary Committee of
the House was not authorized to institute
judicial proceedings, and that, therefore, in
no case could he be held for perjury in re
gard to any statements he may have made.
Judge Fisher said- that he would like to
bear the question as to whether the House
Representatives had atfthority to order
theeaid inquiry; whether it was notan in
vasion of the Judiciary Department by one
bouse of Congress, and contrary to" the dis
tinction ©f powers in the Constitution. He
that this question was included

Terrible Xxplosion cn a Steamboat.
Fobtbehs Monroe,. Dec. B.— Yesterday
evening, at 6 o’clock, the mall-steamer
Thomas Kelso; with about 110 passengers
and a large amount of freight, left Balti
more on her usual trip to Norfolk, k The
weather i was pleasant, and- there appeared
nothing to indicate the terrible affair whioh
was soon to happen, i The Kelso'was ane w
steamer, bnilt a few months since, at Ches
ter, Pennsylvania, for the Bay Line Com
pany of Baltimore, and although not fast,
was considered a safe asd comfortable boat
Dnring last night the weather -became
thick, with some heavy fog overhead. The
boat moved carefully on her way, the pilot
on the lookout for passing vessels, to avoid
collision. About three o’clock this morn
ing, when three miles to the northward of the
Wolf Trap Light-ship, while the passengers
were quietly slumbering, the steam dram
exploded with terrific noise, startling every
one on board and creating the greatest con
fusion. The hot, scalding steam spread
everywhere, rushing into the saloon, and
penetrating the state-rooms, scalding fear
fully many of the sleeping passengers.
These, awakening and inhaling the steam,
made frantic efforts to break through the
windows or the state-rooms, or, rashing.
into the saloon, sought exit anywhere to
reach the fresh air. A terrible scene of con
fusion and.suffering was revealed to the
gBze when the steam had escaped to the
enter air. With the utmost difficulty quiet
was restored, and some of the passengers
who had preserved tbeir presence pf mind,
united with' the officers in calming the ex
cited fears of the lady passengers, and with
the aid of an ariny surgeofi, who fortunately
happened to he On. board, sought to relieve
the sufferings of .the wounded.
Intelligence jpf the disaster was sent to
Cherrystone, on the Eastern Shore,the near
est telegraph station; and about two b’olook
this afternoon the Annamesslc steamer City
of Norfolk was signaled, and comfng along
side, took all the passengers and their bag
gage to Norfolk,where they will be well cared
for. The steamer John Sylvester left Nor
folk to-night, , and proceeded to the Wolf
Trap, where the Kelso anchored after the
explosion, Intending to tow her to Norfolk.
The following is as 'complete and correct
a list of the victims of the disaster as ean be
obtained at this late hour:
Officers and crew of the steamer—Killed,
three colored firemen. Badly scalded, Chas.
Reeder, chief engineer; Vance Wilson, as
sistant, engineer; M. Woodrap, baggage
agent; Wm. Hall, fireman. Slightly scalded
—John Rowanand Capt. Cralle.
Passengers badly scalded—Stephen Hays
and Charles W. Nixon. 81ightiy scalded—
Joseph Davis; Major Eugene Carter, Bth
United States infantry; L. A.Sangtelle, Mrs.
James Southampton, Edward J. Zochler,
George Kickell, Rev. John L. Cowing.
Badtihobe, Dec, 9.—A despatch from
Norfolk to Colonel Falls, President of the
Baltimorv Steam Packet Company, says
that the Annamessio boat arrived here at
3.30 P. M. from the Thomas Kelse, with the
passengers, including wounded. Three
coal-passers were killed,but none of the pas
sengers. Only three passengers were badly
wounded, but several slightly. Three offi
cers of the . boat—Engineers Reeder and
Wilson and Waldrop—were badly scalded,
but are doing well. Three firemen—Holt,
McKenney and Betts—are very severely
burned, bat all the rest of the crew are safe.
The disaster was caused by a seam of pi
vots of theontßide connection of the steam
drum giving way near the month of the
steam-pipe. .The steam blew downward
and penetrated the saloons.
Tugs have been sent from Norfolk to tow
the Kelso to that place. The wounded are
all being tenderly cared for.
_Two young men, giving their names as R.
T. Sickles and Henry Brownelle, were ar
rested in Norfolk, on Friday, on the charg
of passing counterfeit money. They were
arrested at the National Hotel, and in
searching their baggage ever three thou
sand dollars in the spurious bills were dis
covered. The bills are upon the Greens
boro’ Bank of North Carolina, and it is
believed the parties have operated exten
sively in other cities North and West. Both
men were committed for a farther exami
nation.
Mississippi Crops.—The WoodviUe i2e
publican of the 24th ultimo says: “Cotton
picking is nearly over. Crops have turned
out wofully short, of course, as is indicated
by the early end of the picking season, ash
began so late; much energy is being dis
played in the preparations for another crop,
notwithstanding the many failures of the
present year and the low price of cotton.”
