CITY UUIiffKTIN, C«Vmoko tup. Cn V KaimvaV Council has authorized the saianp o£ the _ tr acte«f the Fifth and Sixth Streets City Halloa}, ntph rff llf-ks street. If Common ConneU eoncutfa "“S’XtaS °U h ile C 'the 'othe C r D portions Xl mud, they con have their memories revived by taking a trip over the Franliford end of the Finn fnd K streets road. It is of course known that the company named asked peiraifision o . d i^ s e c Ind Third Streets Railway, which runs parallel wUh the Fifth and Sixth Streets Road.and within Tl wt distance ot it alone its entire route, and v ivpufh'is it " terminus farther north than the FiftVand Sixth Streets Road, had no difficulty whatever in keeping its rails clear of snow during the fecent storm, and yet upon its twenty-eight miles of track it had but a single one of Smiths natent ploughs employed. The Filth and Sixth mtects'RaUway Company, with a shorter route i iCCr v clear, used fivo machines of a patent held "by itself, and now it asks for permis sion to picklo its tracks! Why does it not pro cure the effective machines that are in use upon the Second and Third, Seventh and Ninth, Thir teenth and Fifteenth and Seventeenth and Nine teenth streets Railways,and keep their tracks clear ■without restoring the salt abomination, even in a rural porlion of the city ? The experience of the companies enumerated proves conclusively that city railway tracks can be kept •clear of snow if the fight kind of facilities arc employed for tho accomplishment of that end, and companies that refute to employ them go with a very had grace to Councils to ask lor the restoration of an ex ploded nuisance. But salt slush in the rural dis tritls. like adversity, has its uses, as we' said at thednsset, and it will do good by serving as .a monitor to caution people against the general re introduction of tho nuisance. Fiek -ixJthk Sixth Ward.—'This morning' about half-past one o’clock allre broke out iu the upper part of a large five Storied structure, known ns the “Franklin Building.” and located Su the rear of Franklin Ilall, on Sixth street be low Arcli. The building is occupied on the first fioor bv Phineas Dow, machinist; second- story l>v Smith c; Peters, primers; third story, by J as if. Rodgers,- printer: fourth story, by Ma> hew A Dodds. bookbiuders; fifth floor, by J. B. Kod "cr« printer. The latter also occupies the greater uonion of Franklin Hall, and is extensively en gaged in mercantile printing. Thfc fire originated at tlifl eastern end of the fifth f-torv. and for some time raced very fari- The firemen; however, succeeded iu con iinluV the finincs to this room. The apartment tT' nrrttv well gutted, and a portion of the root <-f tbc building was destroyed. The machinery iu the room was also badly damaged. In the Mink rv considerable damage was done by_water. 'fbt kiss of Mr. Rodgers is estimated at SG,OOO, -ml insured iu the Girard. I'nion, State of Pennsylvania, Rellauce, and several companies ie New. York. .. , , . The loss of Mayhew A Dodds is estimated at 'ifa.i bO. and is insured i:i New 1 ork companies. "The building belongs to-Mr. TilsoD, ot Boston, and is damaged to the extent of about $-2,1100. lii'-urcd. , , . . The origin of the fire is not known, but is J-ing ii>vi*tigatcd by. Fire Marshal Blackburn, Tin-: Dickens Readings. —The sale of tickets for extra course of Dickens’s readings took place this morning at Concert Hall. As on the former occasion, a string of men formed themselves at the door, at an early hour last night, and held their ground all ujght, de . spite the severity of the weather. 1 At nine o'clock this morning, when tho doors opened, the line extended nearly tc Twelfth-street, and •was apnarently composed in large measure ol “operators,” who were freely offering their pin-, cts in the liuo at high figures. The übiquitous •Huffman, from Now York, veteran ol American entertainments, waß early on the ground, but to <\ll arnica/ mice, had nothing whatever to do with what was going on. Huffman has been for many years the great ticket-seller of America, and is a . Napoleon in his particular line of business. Other prominent dealers in tickets were also flitting to and fro in tho crowd. As there were but two nights - to sell, the sale went oil'much more rapidly than the first, and was expected to bo closed by one o clock. The first sale was a very profitable one for the speca latorii, and doubtless stimulated them to secure a largo share ot tlie tickets to-day. Arw.-jts Deiuso Jascabv.—The number of arrests made by'the police of the city during the month of January was against - 2,(!8C the er.me, month in 1807, showing a decrease of 214. The prisoners were divided among the several districts as follows First.... Second .. Third... Fourth . Fifth .... Sixth'... Seventh. Eighth.. Km til... 'Tenth... Eleventh Twelfth Mariners’ Church.—'The Trustees of the East burn Mariners’ Bethel, having sold their property in its former inconvenient location, have recently jVurehfiied aiOf on the sou thwest corner of Front and Union streets, Philadelphia, upon which they contempluto building n church. After pay ing for the lot, they now have about $7,000, in addition to about $l,OOO subscribed by the con sregaiion, towards erecting a new house of wor ship. It ia contemplated to have a plain build ing, not costing, when complete,', over $20,000, with stores on the first tloor (the rent from which 1 will assist to pay annual expenses.) The Rev. James Boggs has been appointed to solicit sub scriptions to aid in the erection of this Bethel, where sailors and their lamilies may attend worship. AccHurjiT At a Theatre. During the per formance at Fox's American Theatre on Walnut street, one of the acrobats, named Brown, made a very narrow escape from death. He was swinging at full length aroniid a horizontal bar, supported by two upright posts, when the latter cave way, and the entire apparatus fell to the stage. Brown was also throwp down with great force, and fell upon his side. The scene was a frightful one, and the audience was horror stricken. It was expected that the performer had been killed, but he soon got upon bis feet and went behind the scenes. It was. then ascertained that the only injuries which hef sustained were some bruises on the body and a slight sprain of the wrist. The New German Theatre.—The subscrip tions to the fund l'ov the erection of a now Ger man Theatre in this city have reached $(17,000. In addition thereto, $20,000 have been pledged by a prominent German gentleman of this city. Vlic executive committee having the matter In ahnrge will meet this evening for the purpose of taking action in the matter, and will probably elect a board of directors, wbo will select a site and cuter into a contract for the erection of a first-class theatre,Kho cost of which wifi be one hundred thousand dollars.^ Uni i.KASAKT Joking.—A party of young men ‘ got to skylarking in the Eleventh Ward yester , dav. They bad some flour which they not only scattered over each other, bnt also threw it into the faces of passers-by. This was considered a good joke, but a policeman arrested one of the jokers, who gave his name as Geo. W. Atkins. Tho prisoner. It is alleged, struck the officer, and was held by Aid. Tolund on tho charge of & ssault nod battery. Larceny of Clothing, —A colored woman, named Hannah Thurman, was arrested last even ing, for stealing a pair of pants from a second hand store, at Seventh and Lombard streets. She was committed by Alderman Morrow. Fred Ford was committed yesterday, by Alder bian Morrow, to answer the charge of the lar ceny «f a coat and pair of pants from a man who roomed with him in tire'same boarding house.
