CITY BULLETIN.
LOCAL CHOWDER.—Free matins were given
this morning in all the public squares. The
solos were sung by our little friends the tom
tits ; the choruses were done up by the chowits
and naturalized sparrows. The March of 1870
to-day departs with a tote of thanks from
every invalid among us. To those wrestling
with rheumatics it has even been benignant.
The improvements in the vicinity of Broad
and Willow streets are very marked. The
enlargement of various factories is under
way. Extensive as these premises are, the
buildings of Messrs. Baird & Co. are scarcely
adequate for their purpose. Of these works .
the product is a locomotive per day—an
achievement that few factories •in the United
States are able to equal. Messrs. Hoopes &
Townsend are about to extend their buildings
to a larger area. They will then have the
most extensive screw and nut factory in the
United States. Messrs. Stuart & Peterson,
on the opposite - corner, have ..completed -•the
enlargement of their building room.
Their counting-house possesses all the
elegance of a boudoir. Another fine
.improvement is the malt house at
the corner of Front and Margaretta streets.
Its owner is Mr. Sweattnan. The building was
erected under the supervision of Mr. Murphy.
To properly , build a brewery or malt-house a
man should be a practical molter. In the pre-.
sent case the success is highly marked. At
Ninth and Wharton streets the American
Quartz Company have what is certainly the
finest factory of the kind in the United States.
In close contiguity. is now being finished a
factory for the conversion of skimm ed milk into
German cheese—an institution that has utilized
a farm product hitherto fed only to pigs.
Every builder in Philadelphia seems to be
abundantly employed.
The people of Trinity M. E. Church will
receive their new pastor, Rey. Mr.. Cleveland,
by getting up a sociable. The church is beau
tifully decorated, and lit up with growing
exotics from the private conservatories of
some of its members. The occasion promises
' to be very pleasant.
Among the visitors to the reportorial
sanctum this morning was a honey bee. They
have already found their way to the soda
fountains and candy stores. The farmers
around have commenced " spring ploughing."
To our bucolic friends the present is the be
ginning,of the season for backache. For this
rettimumany of them, instead of personally
bringing their offerings to the markets. club
together in the matter of transportation, and
turn their attention to the production of next
autumn's crops.
The Tradesmen's Bank has purchased two
'buildings - at Third. and,C hestnut streets. Tliej
are erecting upon it a Costly structure. We
nnderstand that Mr. George W. Childs will
soon begin the erection of a palace in white
marble at Twenty-second ,and Walnut streets.
• The public beneficiaries of the Almshouse
are beginning to abscond. They do this by
scaling the wall. A three months' deprivation
of whisky frequently restores them to their
pins. They clear out in spring time and re
turn"litthe Steward Ilenszev doesn't
undertake to cut off their retreat. trntil we
get a House of Correction, most of this pau
per labor is labor unexpended.
Queer errors are often made in orthography.
Conspicuously posted against a building in
Market, near Twenty-second street, is the in
- scription " Old iren, , coper and pughter bought
here." ,Tosh Billings could have no more
oddly distorted the -correct mode of spelling.
In front of Glenwood Cemetery wall is a post
to which various advertising boards have
been nailed. One of them read :s" Dying done
with great care at No. - street." The
omission of the letter E in the first word of
the senteneeis -- mortuarily as well as appro•
priately suggestive. The chap who painted it
is an evident lover of the unities.
The hotels are rapidly filling up. The guests
at the Continental last night numbered 425.
The people who last niht slumbered at the
Girard House numbered' in the neighborhood
of 390. At the American, our friend Deacon
Heulings served breakfast this morning to
294. This is about the capacity of Mr. Hen
lings's house. Since the Continental was
opened its guests have numbered 1,200,000. As
we get this information from the veteratehotel
reporter, Mr. W. W. Bell, it must be beyond
the possibility of mistake. Mr. 801 l has pro
bably duplicated more autographs than any
other gentleman in his profession.
To-morrow will be" All Fools Day." Rept:-
tition of the performance of the gentleman
who sent us, on last First-of-April, a package
of mahogany sawdust labeled " Choice old
Mocha," will be punished with a broonistiok
by our exasperated Biddy. On April Ist, a
year ago, we detached from the coattails of a
dignified elderly gentleman in a double chin
and ruffled shirt, who was walking dowr.
Chestnut street, an inscription pinned to it by
his youngest boy. The good man has since
been gathered to his fathers. The observance
of St. Valentine's day has fallen into desue
tude. That of the first of April will be likely
to be continued until the day that all humanity
turns Quaker.
The chasm in Walnut street at Twenty
second, has been filled up. Hoodsays in one
°lbis vendfications :
" They wentand told the sexton.
And the iiexton tolled the hell."
In the case of this grievance the sufferers'
first told the Highway Department. They
then told the BULLETIN. The BULLETIN told'
the Citizens' Association. The Citizens' As
sociation told the Highway Department back
again. The Highway Department told the
Chestnut and Walnut Streets Railroad Com
pany the job was theirs. The respective par
ties first fixed the responsibility, and • then
fixed up the whole bole. This was done dur
ing yesterday afternoon. It has ; probably
saved the Coroner at least one labor.
The third anniversary of the Americus
Club will be celebrated to-morrow by a grand
banquet at Washington Hall, Third street,
above Spruce. The club rooms in Fifth street,
above Spruce, will be decorated. At night
they will, be illuminated • also. The Liberty
Cornet Band will discourse sweet music
during the afternoon and evening. The Club
intend to make it a gala occasion, on Which
they will be glad to have the participation of
their lady friends.
SuoomitccJohn Shea was before Alder
man Kerr, this morning, upon the charge of
shooting at Samuel A. Wentz and John J.
Heisler, on Bank street, last evening about
eight o'clock. A dog belonging to Shea
snapped at Mr. Wentz. The latter kicked at
the dog. Shea took umbrage at tins, drew a
revolver and fired. Fortunately the ball did
not take effect. Shea was held in one thousand
dollars bail.
THY:DA ILY EVENING BULLETIN*PHILADELPHI A. THITESDAY MARCH 31, 187.0:
A Fuoimit FROM JUSTIOE.;-Irt Will be rft•
membered that Mr. Richard Picket', of the
firm of Ficken & Williams, sugar rad/vs,
416 Crown street, shot a lad named Arthur
Curran, in February last, inflicting a ,severe
and, as 'was at first feared, fatal wound. Mr.
Ficken was held to bail in the sum of $17,516,
ids partner, Mr. Fielding J. Williams, being
his security.
The boy has recovered sufficiently to come
into Court, and the case was called for trial
this morning, before Judge Peirce.
On Ficken being called, he failed to make
his appearance, and his recognizances wore
promptly forfeited, on the motion of the Dis
trict Attorney.
A bench warrant was issued by Judge Peirce
for the defendant, but the officers made a
return that be was not to be found, and it is
generally understood that the accused has fled
the country and gone to Germany. Whether
this. s actually so, will be determined to-day.
On the preliminary hearings, a heavy bail
was exacted, on the ground that Mr. Ficken
had expressed his intention of returning to
Germany, but his counsel scouted the idea
that lie would run away, and partner de
clared that ho could not go to Europe for six
months.
Among the rumors connected with this
aflair is one that the father of the wounded
boy has received a very considerable sum of
money from Ficken, whicn, together with his
bail, will make the shooting of boys in -the
street a sufficiently expensive business to de
ter others from following Ficken's example.
RINOGOLD GRAMMAR SCHOOD.—Musical

CHARGED WITH ItOßltEßY.—Richaxd Ellis
and John. Roberts were arrested, yesterday,
on suspicion of having been concerned in the
robbery of the store of S. S. Corbin & Co.„ . No'.
:113 Arch street. About the time - the robbery
is supposed to•have been committed the pirs
ouers were seen, by Lieutenant Killacky, at
Fifth and Race streets, acting in a suspicious
manner. Upon being questioned they said
that they lived on Race street, near Ninth.
An officer was sent with them,and was taken
to a house in that locality. The door was
opened with a latch-key, and the men went
into a room which they said they occupied.
it was noticed that this room contained a
great variety of articles. The defendants
were afterwards seen to enter a place on Arch'
street, which is known as a nest for thieves.
When arrested one of them had in his pocket
a card containing the words: " Tailor store,
Eleventh and Filbert, 80 pieces, $900." It
.will be remembered that the store of John
M. Floyd, on Eleventh street, near Filbert,
was robbed on the Bth inst. The accused
were before Ald. Kerr, and were committed
for a further hearing,
DISTILLER]" BVaNED.—The registered dis
tillery of John Monroe, located in the rear of
Broad street, near (`umberland, in the
Twenty-eighth Ward, was discovered to be
on tire. The building way a large two-storied
structure, the largest portion of the walls
being stone. It was tilled with ali of the
necessary machinery fur carrying on the
business for which it was occupied. There
was also a considerable quantity of whisky,
and material for its manufacture, on hand.
The flames were first seen near the boiler,
and they spread very rapidly through the ekab
lishment. The entire northern section of the
city 'was brilliantly illuminated by the light
caused by the conflagration, and a number of
lire companies proceeded to the scene. There
was great difficulty in obtaining water, and
therefore the engines were Of Ye '''' little service.
The Eire continued to burn fiercely for nearly
an hour. The building was comptetely gutted.
The contents were destroyed. The frame
shed attachments Dnd several large vats met
the same fate. Thli loss is estimated at about
$30,000, and is partly covered by insurance.
SUDDEN DEATH: Mr. James Bisset, a
prominent florist of Philadelphia ) died sud
denly, at an early hoar this morning, at his
residence on Tasker street, below Fourth.
Up to ten o'clock last evening he attended to
his business as usual. This morning, 'upon
awakening from his slumber, he complained
of not feeling very well, and requested his
wif6 to make him a cup of tea. She did so,
and upon returning with it to the bed-room,
found him dead. He had been complaining at
times for several years, although he was able
to transact business. Dr. Andrew Nebinger,.
the family physician, attributes the death of
Mr. Bisset to apoplexy. As a florist, he occw
pied prominence, and as such is well-ktiown
throughout the country. EME
Firm AT A MALT-ROUSE.—About 2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon a dense smoke • issued
from the malt-house of V. C. Sweafinan &
Co. '
at Callowbill and New Market streets,
and gave rise to an alarm of lire. Several fire
Companies came upon the ground-, but were
nut permitted to go into service. It seems that
one of the kilns used for drying malt took fire.
t was in a fire-proof apartment and the doors
were closed until the tire had burned out. If
water bad been thrown Into the building the
loss would have been serious. As it was the
damage amonnted to only about 5300.
BOLD RODUERY.—Edward Reynolds and
Remy Brown were arrested, last night, at
Fifth and Shippen streets, upon the charge of.
highway roblbery. - It seems that a German
who was passing along the street was attacked
by - the - accused and-knocked down. Reynolds;

$BO from his pocket. The victim yelled lustily,
and the police rushed up and captured the
robbers. The prisoners will have a hearing at
the Central Station this afternoon.

CITY NUTICEB.I;
SPIII.NO FASHIONS IN' MILLINEBY.--We
clip the following notice of the Millinery Opening of
yesterday from the Press of this morning ;
It seemed providential that the day set apart by the
getters up . of fashionable ladies'-wear, from as decora
tive bouquet to a full blown walking-suit, should have
dawned upon us as the moat charming and delicious day
of the present year. It seemed as If Old Sol had pur
posely reserved all his venial glories to render. the dou
ble service of gratifying the bonneted and crinolhusi
portion of humid' y with a gorgeous " Opening Day,"
and of enabling our fashionable caterers in these depart
ments to display the products of their skill and taste to
the best advantage. From an early hour, until late in
the day, our leading business thoroughfares wore alive
with pedestrians, and wherever a special " Opening"
of Ladies' Wear was announced, thither the living cur
rent surged arid flowed. In tile main, the Millinery peo
ple, in sporting phrase, had the " inside track." In
deed, we'doubt if in the history of Philadelphia Bonnet
Openings there has ever been so general an outpouring
of the ladies to do homage to the several displays made
for their delectation. The prominent old house of Messrs.
Cary, Lincoln k Co., No. no Chestnut street, was, of
course, as usual, the chief centre of "attraction.
From nine o'clock in the morning until five in the after
noon the capacious show-rooms of this firm
were literally thronged with visitors. In
former seasons we have witnessed a similar pressure in
theife warerooms on opening days during the middle of
the day ; but yesterday it was continuous, prolonged,
and unabated. . Ladies who called early not only stayed
long, in order to enjoy the grand display, bat in many
instances, returned later in the day to confirm their
first impreseione, that In the history of the millinery
business no such superb and varied exhibition of
fashionable and stylish bonnets and hats has ever been
presented In this city. The scene in this store during
the crowd May be imagined (by persons with a
large bump of ideality)-' but - -not---adequately -ale-
Scribed. We had hoped to present our fair readers
with at least n synoptical sketch of the leading features
'of the" opening," but even this Is impracticable. from
.the immense number and endless variety of representa•
live specialties. To undertake, therefore, to describe a
a few dozen ode° would only mislead. Not only the ex
traordinary number of hats and bonnets, but the taste
fully•arranged stock of materials,'French flowers, laces,
sashes, rich trimmings; ribbons and a . haus
tired varieties of cutting materials of
all conceivable colors and tints, conspire
to render the scene one of the most picturesque that wo
have ever witnessed, and one that must forever place
this energetic and enterprising firm in 'the front rank
of itlillinery•importing houses in this country. We
observe that hats and bonnets have more size than
heretofore. The former especially aro lofty, re
sembling somewhat the. graceful Tyrolese Hat
Of Paris. last season. To many ladies this shape
is remarkably becoming. In' bonnets the number
of "exquisite gems" seemed "like the stars for
multitude." In colors there, is nothing new. Every
tint and shade of the rainbow seems to be in order,
and several of them often combined in the same article,
The only new thing in enateria's is the soft, luxuriant
crepe duchene, which is employed in all colors for trim
ming, with varied effects. But not anything that we
e'!'onld say would be half so satisfactory to our readers as
the ilist,lny itself, which we presume may now be said to
have opened for the season.
