TUESDAY MOBNINfl::::::::"""
Moating Baths.— We were shownyesterday, by
Mr. Theodore Franck, a design of his contem
plated floating baths, a project which should,
before this, have formed a characteristic or our
city of smoke. It is intended to be moored a
short distanoe out in the Allegheny river, helow
the Old Bridge; being connected with the shore
by a platform. The dimensions, of the bath
house is to: be CD feet.longby 60 wide, with
apartments for private bathing 12 by 1C feet.—
There is to be one large swimming bath, 45 feet
in length by 35 in breadth, whioh is to be open
for the visits of ladies, one afternoon each week*
The swimming bath will also possess the advant
age of materially aiding beginners in the art of
. swimming. The private roomß are 20 in num
ber—lo designed for the use of ladies, and a like
number for gentlemen. There will also he show
er and “snake” baths in each room. A saloon
■ for refreshments forms another attractive feature
of the establishment.
The Floating Baths are now about half fini-h
-ed, and in the oonrse of two weeks they are ex
pected to be complete, when onr.citizens will have
an opportunity of bathing in the pure and limpid
waters of the Allegheny, with every appliance to
their comfort convenient to them.
Mr. Franck is about to present a petition to
the City Councils, asking for tho gratuitous use
of a portion of the Allegheny wharf at the point
he contemplates mooring his baths. The peti
tion, we understand, is signed by twenty-three
physicians of our city,.who recommend its adop
’ tion on the score of the health of the city, .which
would be materially benefitted by the,more gen
erous use of “pure andsparkling water.”
A Card has been published in the Cincinnati
papers, in reference to the great run of the'Al
legheny from Louisville to Cincinnati. The fol
lowing is the statement of the passengers:

: Benefit of Mr. Brdsford. —This talented actor
takes a benefit this evening at the theatre. Miss
Davenport has volunteered in the kindest man
ner, and wtll appear in the character of Parthe
nia, in tbe beautiful and successful play of Ingo
mar. Mr. Brelsford sustains the character of
the Barbarian; which he ably personates ; also
as Mr. Flighty, in the comedy of tbe Married
Bake. Mr. B. has been very encoessfnl since
his first appearance here, both on the stage and
in private life, in winning hosts of. admirers and
friends. Our citizens, who wish to give a bene
fit to a deserving yonhg actor, should attend.
Mtich Disappointment was felt by all the circus
giers of :the city at the detention of tho cirens
fleet by fog, and hundreds wended thoir way to
the foot of Bt. Clair street nt night, notwith
standing placards on the walls, and announce*
ments in the evenjngpapers gave notice that the
Flotilla passed Wheeling at so late an hour as to
preclude the possibility of its reaching here un
til this morning, r The some cause may again re
tard its progress lost night, so that it is impos
sible to give any definite information of its ar
rival or the commencement of the entertain
ments until the palace. is moored at the Alle
gheny wharf.
The Allegheny arrived at the wharf on Sunday
nt half past eleven, A. M., having made the run
from Cincinnati to this city in forty-seven hours;
she was detained two honrs by fog, and made
thirty-three landings for freight and passengers.
The Allegheny bears the horns presented her by
Telegraph No, 2, as the fastest boat above the
falls. She leaves this morning, under the com
mand of Capt Bachelor; and, as Bhe has won a
name for herself as being uneqallcd in point of
speed, we presume she will have a heavy run Of
passengers.
Drowned. —A man by the name of William So
lons, a brick maker, residing in Allegheny city.
Was drowned in the Allegheny river on Saturday
evening, about 10 o’clock.- Mr. Eolons bad gone

cinnati, and leaves a wife and four children to
amam his loss. '

Delegate Elections.—Vie knownotwhether
there was any thing very intoxioating in the at
mosphere, on Saturday.afternoon and evening,—
but certain it is, the watch house report showed
a very alarming laxity in the public morals. The
guardians had-an abundance Of the cases whioh
they so delight in—these that pay well; and .are
not very dangerous. A city hard, (of Mt. Airy,)
once tuned his muse to the pleasure derived from
the “sweet seventy-five cents” resulting from
such cases, and well described the pleasure a
faithful •‘‘Charlie” experienced inpooketing that
amount for doing “the State some service.”

the 7th of May, 1851, Rev M. If. Williams, pastor of the
Fourth Presbyterian Church, inLouisville, Ky.,was and
bad been for a long' time confined to bis room, and most
of the lime to his bed, with Dyspepsia andCbronie Diar
rhea, and was to all appearance bn .lhe very verge of
thegrave, and acknowledged to be so by his physician,
who had tried all the ordinary means in hispower with*
oat effect? and at the above named time, the patient, by
the conscrit of bis physician,-commenced the use of Dr.*
HoUfjbnn’s Pepsin, and lo the astonishment, surprise
and delight-of nil. be was much relieved the first day.
The third 1 day he left his room : The rixth'. day, which
was excessively hot, he rode ten ratios with no bad ef
fect;-on the eighth flayhewenton a vhitto<he country;
and on the thirteenth day.though not entirely restored
to hisnatnra! strength, he was so far recovered as logo
alone a journey of five hundred miles, where he arrived
in safety,much improved in health, having had no dis
turbance of the stomach or bowels after taking the first
cose of Pepsin. These are factsnotconirovertable,and
this is a case which ought to convince all skeptics that
there is a power in Pepsin - Let physicians ana dy*pcp
