CITY BULLETIN.
LOCAL COOWDER.—The storm that is the
usual concomitant of the present vernal equi
nox may now be considered as finished and
done for. The ladles are out to-day in such
numbers that parts of Chestnut street present
the appearance of a parterre of flowers.
The 'Yazoo sails on Saturday for New
Orleans, from Queen street wharf. Freight
is coming. in very rapidly. The South is
largely ordering all kinds of machinery and
agricultural implemer.ts.
The picker-roonis in the basements of the
Afanayunk manufactories are so arranged
that in case of freshet the whole, can be raised
from floor to ceiling.
The color of the water in the Schuylkill this
morning is about the color of the coffee
sensed at the tables of three-dollar boarding
houses. The Delaware is suggestire of the
appearance of a river of chocolate.
The interment of the late Edwin Coolidge,
Yesterday, was one of the largest pri
...sate funerals at which we were ever
present. The character and standing
of the deceased wereillustrated by
the preset - ite of a large number of the tirst
merchant) and Walken Of Philadelphia—such
citizens as 'Reser!, Charles Macalester,sjo.seph
B. Myers, Samuel' Bunting, Chas. B. Darbor
row, Isaac F. Baker, Robert S. Reid, E. D.
Whitney and ethers. The otUciating clergy- -
men. were Rev. Dns. Reedand Withrow - .
The sidewalk dower inercb eta are now e.x
bibiting- their merchandise. The trouble is
that many of these plant are so forced into
bloom that their biessom-producing energies
are exhausted at a single effort. This is more
especially the case with ruses. They shoot
rapidly upward, 'rear a few dowers, and then
lie from the effect e of a tie ricultural debauch..
LYependence for a succession of bloom is only
to be placed upon plants whose infancy was
more sedately spent.
The "intere levying" of Mr. Gruff, yester
day,- by the Fifteenth Ward committee of
,dnizens who want more water, was satisfac
tory to all parties. The proceedings opened
with a grand tableau. The Chief looked at
the committee, the committee looked at the
coal-scuttle, while the coal-scuttle looked at
Mr. Graeil '6 . spotted dog, reposing under the
table. 'Each gentleman went away with a
copy of the. Chief's annual report under his
left arm.
We this morning, saw the first asparagus of
the season. It owes its growth to refraction
through sash, and the stimulating effects of
hone phosphate. Unlike cucumbers, it isn't
old enough because it's big enough.
The water on the dam at noon to-day
measured inches. In Spring Garden basin
aro 15 feet of water, two feet more than they
want.
The sinking of the Belgian pavement at
Twenty-second and Walnut streets has so
continued that thiS morning the chasm, in .
severalplaces,was- More than .four feet.-in
depth. The situation, therefore, is extremely
dangerous. A culvert was recently run under
the street. What now puzzles the parties in
terested is, whether the culvert is broken at
the point over which the pavement has sunk,
or whether the fissure has been made at a
point below. In the absence of barriers
against the progress of horses over the peril
ous place, people have placed flour barrels
upon either side of the railroad track. Notice
was to-day served upon the proper authorities
to take action 'in the matter.
Before United States Commissioner Henry
Phillips, Jr., yesterday, John and James
Fallon, captain and mate of the American
brig Ann Elizabeth, were bound over for a
further hearing, on the charge of cruelly beat
ing, maltreating, injuring and inflic!ing un
usual punishment upon Thomas McGovern, a
seaman upon the vessel in question.
A UIIANGE 01 , EXPRESSION.—We've seen
various " companion pictures." A boy laugh
ing and a boy crying are cases in point. We
yesterday saw a pair of " companion pic
tures" that were not only alive but noisy.
We called upon a lady yesterday afternoon.
We inquired for her son Allen, a young gen
tleman of two kite seasons. The-lady was in
formed by the servant that Master Allen was
on thnroof of the house, indulging in the pas
time of' flying his kite. This was a prohibited
amusement in that houSeliold. It was pro
hibited' because of the strong probability that
3laster Allen would tumble off the roof. The
lady first rushed for an instrument of flagel
lation, and then up to the fourth story,
To have startled the disobedient young
ster with an imperative order to descend, she
wisely thought, would recall memories of
previous correction for other faults. She at
tempted nothing of the kind. With her most
endearing smile and in her softest tones, she
said : "A Ben, darling child, come down and get
some cake , ---come gently, dear ; take care of
the parapet. Never mind your kite."
This scene, is picture No. I. Picture No, 2
shows a different expression on the face of the
mother. It is a cross between relief and in
dignation. Instead of darling child, as she
catches the urchin by the collar she calls him
" little scoundrel." Sounds of woe and lamen
tation are now mingled with the sound of
falling . leather, and Master Allen descends
the stairs as striped as a juvenile Zebra. The
squealing of Master Allen was audible half a
square distant. He now looks upon the sport
in question as doubly dangerous.
HOW A POLICEMAN LOST HIS HEAD.-SOMS
people', when clothed with a little "brief
authority" swell up very much in self-import
ance. Some not only imagine that they own
everything, but that they are privileged to do
pretty much as they please. Of such a class
is a policeman, who made his appearance at
Fifth and Chestnut streets this morning. A
colored man was offering for sale a lot of
calamus. Policeman took a piece and didn't
make any signs that he intendedpaying for it.
Colored man demanded pay. ' 4 l don't want
any chin lip from you," was the reply he re
ceived. Colored man said that he made his
living by selling calarnus and he must be paid.
Mr. Policeman remarked that if anything
more was said about it he would
lock up the calamus vender. The
latter said that he might arrest him, but be
thought that he bad aright to protect his own
property. He was then arrested and rushed
into the Central Station. There a few words
passed between the tarukey and the police
man, and then the prisoner was searched. In
accona_plishing this the policeman acted very
roughly, and tore the coat of the man. For
some unknown reason the prisoner , was not
locked up. The city guardian then attempted
to compromise matters by offering to pay for
the calanaus which he had taken, but said
nothing about the damaged coat. Several gen
tlemen who witnessed the entire scene stated
the base to Mayor Fox, and be promptly' re
lined the taxpayers from paying that police
,man any further salary.

holland, this morning, received a letter from
the authorities of Kent county, Delaware, in
reference to the murder of the man supposed
to boa Philadelphian,named Hogan, at Cam

"Thomas Hogan." There was also an express
receipt for goods shipped for . Milford, Del.

ner, Camden, Kent county, Del.
FIRE IN THE ELEVERTII WAun.--;-This
morning, about four o'clock, a fire broke out
in the large warehouse No. 331 North Water
street, occupied by Hammill & Pyle, produce
commission merchants. The flames were dis
covered by Sergeant Coates,'of the Fourth
District Police, vvho notified the Vigilant Fire
Company and gave the alarm. The firemen
were soon on the ground, and succeeded in
confining the tire to the first and second
stories of the building. The stock was con
siderably injured both by fire and water.
SHOOTING BETWEEN POLICEMEN AND Bun-
CLARB.—This morning, about half-past twelve
o'clock, two men were seen at Tenth and Og
den street acting in a suspicious manner.
They had burglar's tools with them. Police
men Clark and Kneass,of the Eighth District,
started after the fellows. One of the latter
stopped, drew a revolver, aimed it at Clark
and fired. The shot did not take effect.. Clark
returned the fire, but he made a bad shot also,
and the two men succeeded in escaping.
BROUCTIT TO THE CITY.-Wm. Atkinson;
colored, who was arrested in New York by
Detective Field, of that city, was brought to
the city by that t jcfficer and reached here this

A PIECE OF EIiTELWRISE.—The Messrs.
Martin, a pair of progressives of the "pureSt

I istory of stationery and Foudrinier machines.
They begin on Thursday morning a trade sale
in stationery and blank books. It will proba
bly prove the initial movement toward the es
tablishment of trade sales, of the same kind,
t wice in every year. At the sales-rooms of the
M essrs. Martin will begin on Thursday morn,
leg, at the Spacious premises,No. 704 Chestnut
street, a trade sale, in the aove line of mer
chandise, that will last for at least two days.
The offerings are especially adapted to staple
trade. They include a vast' quantity of staple
stationery and blank books. The range of
writing-papers must be especially attractive to
the jobbing and retail trade. With it is 'in
cluded a large lot of hardware and manila
papers and a range of envelopes unrivaled in
extent and variety. Photograph albums, toy
Looks, leather goods, pocket-books, satchels,
maps, cutlery, wall papers, etc., etc., etc., are
included in the collection. Included in the
sale wi l be found the entire stock of Diamond
& Co.. retiring from business, as also many
fine plate-glass showcases, elaborately sil
vered. The attention of the trade to this par
ticular sale can probably be very profitably
directed.

TUE SI.JPPO S ED MURDER AT TRENTON,
IV EW SERIVE.Y.
Coravelling the Assonpittk Creek lllys'
tery—One Clue More—The Detectives
on the Alert.
About live weeks ago a girl, , name& Esther
Robinson, was found drowned in Assanpink
creek, Trenton, N. J. The full particulars
were published, together with the surmises
of the inhabitants of the locality that the
Poorgirl was foully dealt with. Since
!he' sad occurrence took
_place facts have
come. to light that would seem to con
firm the worst suspicions. The neigh
hprs say that the girl was on terms of inti
inacy with a man twhose name is withheld
for the present) who at the same time had a
wife in Europe, and that their intimacy was
parried on up to the time of the wife's arrival
in this country—the day previous to the find
ing of the girl's body. -It seems that the wife
rcturned again to Europe after remaining with
her husband for a period of only two weeks.
It is 'also said that the wife was subjected to
very cruel treatment by her husband, which
accounts for her speedy return to the Old
pountry.
Those who were intimately acquainted with
Esther Robinson state that the supposition of
suicide is inadmissible, because on the very
last evening when she was seen alive she ap
peared quite cheerful and talked with rather
more vivacity than usual. Little has been said
about her to the man referred to,
as the au
thorities do Snot desire-to evince their suspi
bions against him. When questioned at first
in reference to the ratter he was morose and
unwilling to make any statement, and what
ever information he gave was not calculated
to impress one with his innocence. The case
is so shrouded in mystery, however, that al
though one of the shrewdest detectives of
Philadelphia expresses his opinion that a case
can be made out against the suspected indi
vidual, no satisfactory evidence has yet been
obtained to furnish any hope for conviction.
TIIE CONNECTICUT ELECTION.
Facts and Maros.
The Tribune says :
The annual election in Connecticut takes
h>lace next Monday, and the vote of the two
attics is so nearly equal that we urge every
epublican elector now at home not to start
On ajourney till after voting, and every elector
now away from home to . make his way bank
to his own fireside before Saturday shall give
place' to &lnday. If Gov. Jewell shall be
beaten, it can only be through apathy or heed
lessness °lathe part of those who should be
his supporters : make sure that the fault—if
fault there ,be—shall not be yours !
There are just about one hundred thousand
legal voters in Connecticut, and her highest
vote ever, cast for President was that of 1868,
which stood:
Grant, ..... 50,995 i 5eym0ur......47,951

Upon examination will be found to be
THE CHEAPEST AND THE BEST
YFT OFTEBED TO THE PUBLIC.
THIS WILL BE BORNE OUT BY
The rich country the Road tra
verses, with its agricultural and
mineral resources;
The cash q.ubscribed to the Capi
tal Stock;
The excellence of the 65 miles;
already built, and its full equip-,
went;
The plans completed and money
expended for vigorous finishing of
the Line in the Spring;
The excessive earnings to ac
crue from the completion of the
whole line;
The ample Sinking Fund, for the
certain redemption of the. Bonds:
The very liminal interest, run
ning over a term of 40 years;
The security afforded by. Regis
try;
The Moitgage covering the en
tire Road, Equipment, Franchises
and all Property-, present and fu
ture—indeed the security of twice
the amount of B9nds issued;
The low currency price they are
now offered at.
All this is verified hi detail in the com
plete Pamphlet, which can be bad of ns.
We KNOW these Bonds to be good, and
we know the character and capacity of the
Cempanrs estimates can be implicitly re
lied upon to give these Bonds the highest
standard: We therefore freely and, fully
recommend them.
