THE COURTS. «o Excom for Porjnry. o‘uAi!TKESKSBio^rs^-Judge-Paxson.— This moroing, upon a motion to reconsider the sentence of Henry Keicbard, who pleaded guilty to a charge 'of perjury, Judge Paacaon e J^ r rBt3«n°g l> tbe >n fact that the defendant •pleaded guilty to the charge of perjury, and EarWea sentenced "to seven a ■ motion made for a reconsideration of sen tence. the judge says: The defendant; became bail before me for one Catherine WTaite, who •was charged with arson. The District At torney was present under notice, and exam ined iiim lawfully under oath touching Ins competenev to go hail. He gave his name, “ statement of the.real estate he owned, and produced the deeds showing the title to be re corddd, and stated that the property was clear of all incumbrance. His story was perfectly straight, apparently truthful, and I accepted him as bail, which was duly entered, and Mrs. Waite released from prison. Within an hour Rafter his examination before-me, thowhole Story told by Keicbard was shown to be false. The namo he gave was ah assumed one. He did not own a foot of ground any where, and the deed he produced was borrowed foi the occasion. A bench warrant wm mrue diateiy issued for the reTarresr of Mrs. Waitp, and aisoa warrant against Keicbard, apomthe charge of periury. Both of the parties, were arrested the same evening, ' Keicbard pleaded guilty, and was sentenced, as above stated, and a few days thereafter Mrs. Waite was tried upon the charge of atson, and acquitted. I am now asked to re consider Bernhard's sentence, became: 1. Mrs. Waite, having been acquitted by the iurv. it appears that he committed the perjury in becoming bail foTan innocent person; and 2. That he was a mere dupe of other per sons and was induced to commit the crime under the belief or assurance that he could make a large sum of money by the transac no lam unable to see the force of these sons. His offence had nothing to do with the guilt nr innocence of Mrs. Waite. His per iury is Inst as •ocoplete, and the crime as great as thonghshb had been convicted and sentenced for the arson. It is sufficient that she was charged with a high crime, one that in some of the States is yet punished with death, and the defendant attempted to taka the prisoner out of the hands of the Court . by . means #f perjury. He succeeded fora lone period, and -but for. .the vigilanoe and promptness of Assistant-Distnot Attor ney Pratt and the Court Clerk, Wil _ liam _ Galton, .would .. have been—entirely successful, and it is no palliation of his oftence that .Mrs. Waite was acquitted of the crime with which she was charged; and if there were any force' in tills view of the case, we must not not lose sight of the .fact that the evidence upon the trial of the arson bore very hard upon Mrs. Waite. I have no doubt the jury acted from conscientious motives and upon the best light they had. 1 desire to..cast no censure upon them, but I am free to say that if they had come to a different conclusion the Court would have had no hesitation in sustaining their verdict. The case was tried with great care and ability upon the part of the Assistant District Attorney Pratt, and no point was omitted in the proofs laid before the jury or in the argument enforcing those facts. .The Commonwealth officers did their whole duty, in this as in every other case which they have tried 't>Qfyyr*» in<*. nut it is mo3t unrea>9QDaibi6 to hold that because Mrs. Waite’s jury were not satisfied of her guilt, beyond all reasonable doubt; that we should have any question of Keichard’s guilt, when his perjury was com mitted in open court, detected within an hour, and stands confessed by ilia plea. _ It may be that Keicbard was the dupe of some one else in this matter. But the man who could stand up in open Court, as this man did, and go through his false story without the moving of a muscle or changing of counte nance, can hardly be a novice in crime. I watched his face closely at the time, and I never saw an instance of such, perfect cool ness and assurance in the commission of such an offence. That he has been disappointed in the result is possible, and even probable. But if men will allow themselves to be put for ward as “dupes” in such transactions as this, it is time they understood the 'severe penalty they will havo to pay in case of detection and conviction. A man who commits perjury ior pay is hardly entitled to merciful considera tion as a dupe, or for the reason that his crime has not been as profit able as he'anticipated. This man’s punishment was heavy, but his offence was heavy also. He hds not even this poor excuse of being tempted by sdlt-interest to swear falsely in a proceeding, to which he was a party, it was committed in a bold at tempt to obstruct ‘Jthe administration of public Justice. And because it was so committed, and because this offence'has become so com mon as to require prompt and severe treat ment, I administered lo tniß defendant the full measure of the law. It falls heavily upon him, and I would gladly lighten the blow if I could do so consistently; but the interests of society x{! q U rre-that this sentence,-whioh-was imposed for its protection, should be enforced.

Some time ago Mr. Henry Martiwj of d.Olcdt Council, introduced a resolution itmt.rdcti tig the Committee on Police to inquire add report ' upon the propriety of establishing bath-lioitHes where poor people coiUd indulge in tlm luxury of a bath free or expense. In Common .Coun cil on Thursday last) the Committee made a favorable report dll the project, ami au dtdi u»nce appropriutiup 815,000 to carry, it into efl'ect was passed. The bill did not Teach select Council, but when it comes up at the next meeting it ought to be concurred in promptly and without opposition. ' The. ex periment of: free, public baths was tried; in Boston in 1860, and soon met with great favor. A large number of persous—men, women aud • ~ children—arailtid themselves-of the Opportu nity of taking a.hath, and additional bath- houses had tone 'provided every : year’since. At the present time there are,'fifteen in exis ence. ■ 7 ■ ; •. Wbtre the Dstbn arc to be tiocateil. The plans for the baths in this city have not yet been fully matured, but, it is presumed, will be arranged by .the Committee on Police. The appropriation made will be. sufficient to establish four baths, and it is proposed to To . cate two upon the Delaware and twh on the Schuylkill. The exact situation of the houses has not yet been determined upon., The Boston plan. As it is probable that the Boston plan will bo adopted, a statement in regard to the ope rations of the baths in that city will not be oiit of place here. The great success of the free baths in 1866 led to the appointment by the City Councils in the following year of a Joint Standing Committee on Public Bathing, and the matter has since been under charge of such a committee. : In 1860 there were 15 houses in operation. Of these 10 were for men and boys, and 5 for women and girls. Each has a • Superintendent. The appropria- tioirmade-bythe-Citj-Couiidle-forthis-de purtment for the financial year 1869-70 was $20,500. Of this amount, however, 515.000 were for building new houses and for repairs and alterations to the existing houses. The report of the committee states that. “ the in crease.in the number of bathers in 1869 over the previous year amounted to 181,457—m0re than twenty per cent.; and the increase over the year 1860, when the baths were first opened, amounts to about one hundred and twenty-live per cent. Upon J Sucha statement no comment is needed to show the groat sani tary work which is accomplished by tUe es tablishment of these houses. ” TbeOperatlonaorthoßatbs. The following statement shows the opera tions of the baths since they were established: 1866. 1867. 1868. 1869.

M., and on Sundays fioin 5 A. M. to 9A. M.' Those for females are,open on-week days from 6 A. M. to 8 P. M.. and on Sundays freim 6 A. H. to 9 A. M. Each bather has to provide his own tow els and soap. Female bathers are required to furnish suitable bathing-dresses. Those de “siringTowclsTum obtain themaif the Superin tendent at three cents each. Each Superin tendent has full charge ot hia premises, and authority to withhold the facilities from all not conforming to-the roles, and he is required to render every assistance to applicants for baths. No smoking, profanity or noisy con versation arc allowed on the premises, and a policeman is in constant attendance to pre serve order and enforce the regulations. All questions of priority in bathing or Of use of dressing-Tooms are referred to the Superin te.udeut, whose decision is final. t he Iteiult as a Sanitary Measure. The result of the establishment of the baths in Boston is thus Btated in the report oi the Committee of Wouncils for 1868: “ The experiment of the baths how for two yearsmoiutaiued, as a sanitary measure, hu been abundantly endorsed bv the press, physi cians of every school, and all who-have given any attention to the subject The remarkable degree of healthfulness which has marked the city for this period may, we think, in a great measure be attributed to the daily ablutions of so large a proportion of our population at these baths, we have had a pre-eminently c/ccn,' city aud - to. this, creditable- result this great public measure has largely contributed.” The example of Boston has been followed by Charlestown and Cambridge, Massachu setts ; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Cincinnati, ■St. Bonis, and, on a small scale, in this city, by the Rev. Mr. Long, at the Bedford Street Mission. - Mr. Long’s experience shows that his baths have a very beneficial effect upon the health of the Bedford street distriat in the summer season, and the number of persons applying for baths is larger than can he ac commodated. With these facta in view, the appropriationby City Councils is very credit aolc, and will meet with the approval of the entire community. Catholic Work in West Philadelphia. —ln Chestnut street, above Thirty-seventh, is an excellent school. It is, of course, free to all. Within.a square distant from it, by tho exertions of Rev. Father Martin, has been erected a parochial school-building that greatly relieves from over-crowding the school . we.first named. The building in question is of pressed brick, three stories in height. Its en trances are of ample width, and its staircases are of cqrrespond-iug-dimeusiO-08.--IhelvariDus "rooms upon each floor are separated by parti tions'of sash,at a moment’s notice susceptible of being so put out of sight as to throw three apartments into one. The enterprise of Father Martin was under taken in tho face of many discouragements. The ladies of the neighboring Convent of the Holy Child Jesus most kindly came to his as sistance. They undertook the superintend ence of tho, female department of the school. They not only dill this; they have conducted ~ its management-from that (fay to the present. They propose to continue to do so for an in definite period to come. The sisters do this entire work,. Whatever may be the difference in instruction or precept, our reporter did not venture upon the liberty of inquiring. What he did see was that upon tho entrance of a visitor no child looks from slate or book to stare at the iulruder. The school has been open but for a few weeks. At this momentum boys’ department is occupied by two hundred aud ninety pupils, and that of the girls by but a few less. The hoys’ department is in the charge of Miss M. E.-Hennessey,- Principal; Miss A. M. Boylo, Miss K. Hagan, Miss M. Metcalfe, Assistants, In the girls’ department are about sevontv >tive little.toddlers, of from three to five years old. For their benefit has been constructed across one end of their room a platform, con sisting of successive steps. Upon these the little ones sit. ' The instruction imparted to them takes, principally, thp shape of object teaching. That of the seniors is as elaborate .as that of tho most exacting toxt-book-conld requiro. The prominent features of the build ing are its marvelous neatness and its perfect ' ventilation. Its floors are white as the decks of the flag-ship of a .fleet.. The difference in the discipline Detween it and the general pub lic school is that some of the pupils in it pre serve bettor order, and that in tho work of each, hour, of {he five, during which the daily studies are prosecuted, short religious exer cises are introdudeil. ' To’the vicinity of its erection the building is no drawback. It forms part and parcel of the ground upon which, also, is located the, • Church of Father Martin; ; Suspicious.— This morning, between four and live,o’clock, tlireo men wore seen to en ter the yard- of a new house, lit Ninth and Watkin streets. They acted in a suspicious manner. A policeman camo up and arrested ,pne of the, fellows. The prisoner gave his name as .Tames Gorman;, Ho is said to be one of the Schuylkill- Bangers. ” On his person were found a pistol, kuife and blackjack. He ■will have a hearing, this afternoon; at tho .Central Station. , ■ ’ it :r. IIiADEEPHI -'PitusKiiviKoi.ili'iiitSH; KauiTßewEor some time pasta building Jibs been . completed in this vicinity of which the purpose, is the pre servation during, the winter of the summer fruits. Thus far no very especial use has been made of it, beyond the storing of. foreign of ferings of Poinona when hap pened to. he glutted by previous .arrivals. " Should: circumstances warrant it, the place - will ho prepared this season for the storage of fruit from,California, as well as for that pro duccd'at borne, ".Vi.. The idea upon which these fruit-preserving buildings is'constructed ftbaaed upon a very simple principle. The man with the most uni formly even temper lives the longest, just os the mildly-regulated i?fe lasts longer than the one that .blirt.es by fits and starts.' That sum mer fruits decay is because the temperature in which they are kCpt ia/itidueive of dacomposi- ; tion." l That the liatoe''grapes, perishing in six j dayain ateffineratiire of eighty degrees, can ( he presorved for an indefinite period in a tern- : perature of forty-live, was understood by ;i simple people'lOng anterior to its compreheu- ii sion t>y the savaus. | We can illustrate this by a local anecdote, il It is thacase, over again, of the peasant child j carrying from the study of Sir Isaao Newton ~ The borrowed niifjtrofcoal, upoaastratum of” ashes first placed npon her palm. “Withall i, my philosophy,” exclaimed the sage, in admi- ; ration of the expedient, “ I never wohldhave ! thought of this.. • -. ’ Before leaving New York on one of his j trips across tlje ocean, Captain James West, : of tbe was presented by a lady with i a bouquet of rosebuds, it was in tbe shape j of a pine-apple—each stem perfect! add each ; j separate and distinct, .but of nearly. • cor,res- Sonding size. The second day after leaving ; 'ew York, the Steward requested permission ; to preserve the flowers until the ship reached Southampton. Without giving a second thought to the matter, Captain West con sented. The steamer was thirteen days upon the voyage. ‘ This included .'the timospent In touching at Liverpool. When Captain West i came on board, on the day .after reaching; Southampton,the Steward said: .' -;r • , r ' “ Captain, will you take your roses ?” “ What roses?” , ; “ The roses, sir, that I put away the second! day out from New York.” And do you mean to say thatthose flowers are in existence?” “Ido, sir,” said the Steward. “What is more, sir, they haven’t changed a particle since I took them off your table. I hung them,, stem upward, in. the ice-house, I’ll have them 1 here in two minutes.” ~ ■ ; The Steward vanished in the direction indi cated. He reappeared with the bouquet in his hand. In an atmosphere of about forty-five degrees, steadily preserved, the caleces of the floral gems were as- tightly closed as when first consigned to the keeping of theihfelliotent tiersoninquestion., Captain West tells us That Tie presented the bouquet to a lady with whom he was sojourning. That be was sincere in his statement that the roses had grown in New York ha had some difficulty in assuring her. That they had been procured in Liverpool was tbe idea with wnich she was first im pressed. Placed in water by Captain West, the petals soon expanded, and’diflused an odor so pow erful that the windows were raised to dilate it by external air. English roses, says the Captain.have not the.volume of perfume ex haled from our own. The emblems of York and Lancaster areas beautiful as ours, hut don’t' possess one-half the scent. , , What we are coming at ft, that this fruit-; preserving house on the river,- near Brides burg, is built with hollow walls, filled in with charcoal and tanbark. Its mansard-like roof is stored with ice. Its temperature ftwregu-' lated as to vary with no change of the exter nal atmosphere! We have eaten grapes and peaches from it that were twelve months old. Ho far as we were able to discriminate, the fruit was as fresh as if the vine or the tree had newly yielded it. We under stand —that an—association of gentlemen are about to erect another ami much larger one, ana to complete it ijn time for tbe maturing of the peas and the plums of the Pacific coast. Whether the mat ter will be pushed. to completion, or aban doned, we do not yet know- What we do know is that the plum in these parts at least, lb aim os* an obsolete production. The trees blossom andbear fruit- The cnrculio imprints his crescent signet upon tliree-fourths of all that are yielded, and strews them valueless upon the ground. As a market fruit the plum in some seasons is scarcely seen, -The golden- 1 surfeit that-you getin midland France for a ■ few sous would often cost in Philadelphia as ; many dollars. -By drenching the trees with a - foul mixture of tobacco or whale-oil soap a growth is sometimes spared to an assiduous : private cultivator who must produce plums aud doesn’t care for their cost. To all others the greengages and the egg-plum are virtually i interdicted luxuries. ; A crop of rare pears, like- the-Bonne de Jer ’ sey, is a crop that brings to its producer very argentiferous results. The fruiterers here sell them at prices that should long since have set professional cultivators to thinking. These | choice varieties are offered in quantities so | small fhat the figure of from fifteen to thirty cents a piece for them is at all times com manded. " If an asseeiation can successfully preserve for the table these perishable fruits, the money realized by the enterprise will be grudged to them by no one. We shall be glad to hear that the undertaking ft begun. Confiscating Shoes. —Before Aid. Car penter, yesterday afternoon, there was ar raigned a queer specimen of the colored race. He was extremely black, and his countenance was of the true African type- He was tall and lank, while the policeman having him in charge was a short, stout Irishman. The con trast wap very ludicrous and even drew a smile from his Aldermanic majesty. When asked his name, the prisoner responded: “Dey call me John Brown, now: but when I libbed in Souf Caroliny I was Black Bill.” The policeman stated' the case. Black Bill had made love to a pair of gaiters which were ■ hanging in tront of a store, and when ar rested he assaulted the policeman. \Aldernian—You. will have to find hail in the sum of *BOO for larceny and assault and battery. Prisoner —Say, boss, aint I Eot some rights now? I)e Fifteenth Commandmentliah passed, an’ I‘se a citizen. Alderman—What lias that got to do with your stealing? Good citizens don’t generally appropriate, other .people’s property. Prisoner—Gen. Sherman did,an’ I guess he’s a good citizen. He jus’ appropriate dis ’ere nigga, when rriassa had run away. Alderman—You were confiscated. ‘ Prisoner—Ben I jist con—con —contested dese shoes. Be mail wasn’t about, so I took what X wanted. Alderman—Why did yon strike the officer? Prisoner—l’se a citizen, and don’t want to he interfered with. He’s a servant of the people. I’se one of the people, now. Massa licked me, an I jis lickedhim. He jis wanted a little ehas—chas—chas—[scratching his wool]. What’s dat big word de white folks say ? On yah—ha! ha!—sashaying.' [Chastising' was meant, we presume]. Alderman—Officer,, here is your commit ment. Take away the prisoner. An Ungrateful Scamp.— Johfl Sehibbe aped nineteen, a German, who speaks French fluently and plays the piano, came to this city about eight months ago. For the past seven months he has made his ‘home with John -tscbneider,4n-tke-reair-'of_No-311Bace street— Mr. Schneider and his wife both work hard to make a living, and during the past year have. Managed to save abd&t $lOO, Sehibbe has never been asked to pay any board, as he al ways seemed to be poor. -XIo-has frequently said, however, that he expected to get some money from his sister, and then ho would, pay Mr. Schneider for his kindness. Yesterday' Sehibbe was missed, and it was discovered! that Mr. Schneider’s trunk had been.bi'oken open and ransacked. Everything of any value Was taken: -Among the property stolen-were three sovereigns anil a new, $2O note! With - the latter the- thief’Tigged-himself-out-iu-a : - new suit of clothes at a Market street clothing house. .The ungrateful fellow, has not „yet been found, hut the police are looking for him. Sudden Death.— Robert Maull, residing at York avenqe and. Gallowhill street, went into a drinking-saloon at Dilwyn. and Oallowhil streets,-this morning, and sat down on a barrel. In a few seconds ho dropped upon, the floor, and whon picked.up, it ;was discovered he was dead: His sudden death is' attributed to disease oftlio heart,. , >■ ' ' i/ -EY EN INjGLB II JjT/RTI-K'SY;AP iHti mi'H MOKIIC.UtdI I'tf.

He . felt sure that Philadelphia on tins occasion, as on many other, similar occasions, and especially five. years ago, when the South was crushed and Hufforingfromfamine.willstepforward with a generous hand. Mr. -Boaraman then read the following: Firyt— Tb« citizens of Phllad©lp>iiA,aßßemble(l atHie oflice of the Major, in reaponsetahls Invitation of ibis date, have beard vritft the doe peat ••licitnde of the over* Vi hejoning calamitjjwhich- haa-tedentlf occurred in the cityofßichnioiid. - - * l ' Sfccnd—Becojnjir.lncthesacred ties of a common coun try and a common hrotnerbo<xlt wo tender to the stricken people of our aiuur.city the ajuarancee.ofonr unfeigned 8> id pot by In thw season of thelr-aniversol sorrow.

The Chairman was then authorized- to- ap point. at his leisure, the Committee-provided for in the resolutions. ■■■-■- The Mayor announced that he had received several contributions, wbich-he -would hand over to the Committee when it is. organized. Local Chowder.— The streets to-day ex hibit their usual brilliance. Fine weather, blue sky and prettily-dressed lathes make up the picture. For a little basket of strawberries our re porter yesterday disbursed jitst 40 cents. 7 The basket contained ten half-decayed berries; the lower half was tilled with cotton. Whether the dealer was aware of the faet, we don’t know. As they were packed in the South, perhaps he wasn’t. Rev. Father McOonomy is now rector of the Cathedral. He has long acted as the-Bishop’s socius and chancellor. Father McCouomy is a Lancasterian. ‘ Any one returning to the counter of this office a lost note-case, containing railroad pa pers of no use save to the owner, whose name they hear, will receive ten dollars for his trou ble, without being subjected to any inquiries whatever. John W. Frazier, Esq., contractor for build ing the new school-house in the Fifth Ward, located on Third street, above .Lombard, has ah extra large force of men at work. The first floor of joists has bSen laid, and all tho doors and window frames set. When eom pietedethe building will be an ornament to the neighborhood! The world is made up of all kinds of people. The latest personal eccentricity we noticed was this morning illustrated in the endeavor by an elderly lady to set her watch by the indices presented by a mariner’s compass iu the window of Mr. John McAllister, on Chestnut street.. The time, as.she walked away, was about half an inch past North- Northeast. The good lady resides in the vicinity of Mullica Hill, N.IJ. The name of her “ darter ” is Jerusba Jane. The markets this morning looked very cheerful. Spring lamb, asparagus and salads are so abundant that prices are at (least ten per cent, lower than the-figures of a week ago. By tlie purveyors for restaurants the supply of spring chickens thismorning was very early exhausted. For folks [who enjoy veal the present is the best jlme to indulge. Like niany other things, veal is in the best condition when it is most abundant. Upon the tables of restaurants and hotels it is very rarely seen. As the basis for “stock” for soup, hotei stewards continually require it; ujipn their' hills of fare, we notice, it is rarely seen. For cutlets this morning the price was 23a25 cents per pound. Beef holds its owu. The suavity of the steer is all very well: what he declines to do is to sell you his sirloins for less tbati 2tia2B cents a pound. Upon the par ■value of his rump he is equally airy. Twenty cents a pound is the price, at which he, this morning, disposed readily of his steaks. South ern tomatoes are more plentiful. That they don’t sell well is because they ain’t superior, even if equal,to the home-grown article in air tight cans. Asparagus brings sixty cents to a dollar a hunch—according to the greenness of -the-buyer-anit the-verdancy of the-asparagus. For butter, sixty'cents a pound was this morning’s figure, while eggs per dozen fluc tuated all the way from 23 to 50 cents. . Wanted .a . Situation.— This morning a short, clumsy Irishman, with an exceedingly red face, stepped into the Mayor’s office, auu, approaching Mr. Gallagher, the Messenger, bawled out, “Is Mr., Fox in?? “ Yes,” was the response of Mr. Gallagher. The following conversation then ensued: - ■ Irishman—“ I want to.see.Miy Fox ” , Messenger—“He is engaged, sir. You can’t .see_.hjjm-aaw,’.L_ ■ Irishman—“l must seo him; I voted for ■ him, shul'e, and'don’t see why I can'tsee him.” Messenger—“He is engaged,” Irishman—“l was here a Week ago, and want a sitteashun.

I always vote the Democratic ticket.’.’ , Messenger—“ If that is all you want, you' might as well leave.” i V f," - - Irishman took (the hint, anil got out of tho loom much faster tljaß'be 1 entered, iti r Cm ts ortality. —The: ■ number of , iutpr inpu ts in tbo dty for the week eiidingat: nopn (O-day was 328, against 254 the same'peWbil last year.

Larceny .John Mann entered the third-story room of a house at Second and Coatee streets this morning, and helped him self to address valued at 20 cents. He was ar rested,- and Alderman Toland held him in 5000 hail. This small theft will cost the county several dollars. Fatal Accident.—Whltely MeKniglit, aged 17 years, residing on Btley street, in Manayunk, was killed by being caught in the carding-machine at Behotield’s mill to-day. Suicide.— George Brown, aged 60, residing at No. 4409 Wood street, in Manayunk, Com mitted suicide by cutting his throat, .this morning.

A well-made suit of clothes, of good material, that costs but ten dollars, tells its own story. So does a nice spring outside coat, at the ridic ulous low figure of from five to seven’ dollars. The stock of Rockhill & Wilson is eminently: attractive.. Ifs ofi'erings are adapted to ngcket beoks of every size, and to tastes of erery cle eree. The custom department is replete with Die summer offerings of London and Paris. The corps of cutters employed are masters of their business. That the trade of Messr*. Rockhill & Wilson is so extensive is because their study is to make you; a' permanent, in stead of a transient customer. Once deposit your measure, and your apparel can be sent to any part of the world. The Emporium of Spring Attractions is certainly Great Brown Hall.
