Tux Pianism Caaax CowesuartAxY.—The Sun-
bury American says : Our attention has been called
to a communication in the Philadelphia Age, from
some Copperhead donkey, who Is extremely anxious
to cover up the real facts in relation to the Columbia
county Confederates. This fellow, who talks of the
unreliability of his neighbors, publishes not quite
half the article that appeared In our columns, and
adds the following on his own account :
“But Gen. Couch marched against. them with
tie hundred and eighty men, and they Succumbed
without firing a shot. A few, days ago ptyrovest marshal. was shot by' one of them and severely
votaded.” •
The paragraph omitted by this veracious writer,
and for which ho substituted his own, is as follows,
and no decent Democrat in this section will deny its
truthfulness :
"On Saturday about two hundred mounted men,
with their horses and equipments, passed through
this place for the scene f
o action. On Tuesday
morning three hundred and eighty more soldiers
from Gen. Couch's department passed through here
On the same mission. It is with difficulty that we
get any reliable information. Gen. Couch has been
pp and passed through this place on his return to
Harrisburg on Wednesday night. Rumor says, for
the purpose of sending more troops.
"We have since learned that the insurgents
knocked under to Gen. Couch before he loft, and
that they did not number more than one hundred
and fifty to two hundred.".

WIIO WILL PAY FOR BUTTER iTOW ?
One of our reporters, who is not on such good
terms with his landlady as might be desired, and
finds with dismay the daily decreasing allowance of
butter, endeavors to do justice to the calamity In
these malignant stanzas :
Why am / so weak and weary?
' I can scarcely draw a breath;
And I feel a kind of skcery,
For I'm nearly tired to death. •
Get the butter.kettle ready, .
I must market, anyhow •
But I wish you'd tell me, eruly,
Who's to pay for putter now 7.
Soon to market be marching-,
• Oh, I wish I had a cow l
That must be when gold has fallen,
Who's to pay for butter now?
Who can eat such great big slices? •
Who can go on drinking beer!
Who can think of cakes and muffins, • •
Now that butter is so dear 7
Even now I think I see you,
(Seventy cents a pound, too)—how
Can you eat it with your bacon ?
Who's to pay for butter now 1
With my kettle full of butter,
My mantilla all awry,
I must hurry through the markets,
For I've got to make a pie.
I shall put lard in the pastry—
Butter's too rich, anyhow; •
Even if I thought it wasn't, -
Who's to pay for butter now 1....
boon from market I'll be marching,
Oh I wish I had a cow ! . •
That must be when gold has fallen,
Who's to pay for butter now?
PIIILADELPIIIA GAS WOILKS.
On the 15th instant forty operatives at the Gas
Works were discharged by order; it is said, of the
engineer of thatestablishment,there being no cause
assigned for the general. decapitation. The fore
man, Mr. John Beckerboch, was ordered to dis
charge the men, but refused. For this he was sus
pended from duty. The men discharged were known
as the day and 'night gangs over the fires, respec
tively under the foremanship of John Shaffer and
Samuel Wagner. They belong to the National
Union party, and this. It is supposed, is the reason
of their discharge; It is said that a great amount
of coal is wasted at the works, because of the incom
petency of the engineer.
The menwho have been recently appointed as in
spectors haye been going around on a course of in
spection, and to our certain knowledge water has
been added to the meters without any occasion
therefor. By the addition of more water than is
positively necessary the meter is made to register
against the consumer. As the price of gas has been
enormously increased to meet former deficiencies, it
is very unfair to so arrange the meters as to make
them register more than is actually of nSumed.

A-LLEGED FALSE PRETENCE
William 0. Corry, hailing from New Jersey, was
arraigned at the Central Station yesterday after
noon on the charge of obtaining $9O under false pre
tences, from A. N. Gray, a jeweller, on North
Twelfth street. The facts of this case are briefly
these : A short time since, the defendant called
upon Mr. Gray and offered , to sell htm a diamond
ring. Thejewel was examined and the sum of sdo
was offered for it.. This was refused. Several visits
were made to the store, and filially Mr. Gray pur
chased the ring for the sum of $9O. It ,was in evi
dence that another jeweller, named Mahler, was at
the store at the time the defendant made one of his
visits. He examined the ring and said it was worth
a hundred dollars. Mr. Gray having become the
legal possessor of the ring, subsequently ascertained
that it was not a diamond. To prove its true value,
Mr. Garret, jeweller, was called to the stand. He
testified that the stone in the ring was worth about
twenty-five cents. The false pretence consists in
the fact that the seller represented the stone to be a
diamond. The purchaser had fully examined it be.
fore concluding the bargain. The magistrate held
the defendant to bail to answer the charge as pre
ferred.
(Before Kr. Alderman PatcheL )
Yesterday morning, Patrick Mason, James Mel.
len, and John Mason were before Alderman Patch
el, charged with violently assaulting Mr. Lloyd, the
proprietor of the Blue Bell Tavern, on the Darby
road, as briefly mentionedin The Press of yesterday.
It appears that on Sunday afternoon eight or ten
men in carriages stoped at the Blue 801 l Tavern
and called for ale. As Mr. Lloyd was proceeding
to the cellar to procure it, one of the party threw a
glass at him which struck him on the back part of
his head. The crowd then behaved in a most outra
geous manner breaking furniture, and helping
themselves to liquor and whatever else they could
lay their hands on. Information of the affair was
sent to Lieutenant Paullen, and the participants
above named were arrested when they returned with
their horses to the stables from which thoyhad hired
them. The defendants were identified by Mr. Lloyd
and were committed.
(Before Mr, Alderman Wet:lb:m.3
GAMBLING IN THE STREETS
Two pedlars, giving_ the navies of. George Ser
geant and Francis McKeown, were arraigned yes
terday on the charge of gambling. The: offence
against the law is that the defendants offered cakes
of soap for sale atlo cents each'. A. purchaser might
place a small amount of money up as a dike,
then touch the spring of a patented dice.boi; and
whatever number came up the individual would be
entitled to anything in the pack basing thereon the
Same number. This arrangement is pronounced by
the revised penal code as gambling; the penalty
being fixed at, not more than $5OO tine, and not more
than five years imprisonment. The defendants were
committed to answer: —
A BRUTAL PRISONER.
A young man, giving the name of dward Shan
non, was arraigned yesterday on the charge of at
tempted robbery and committing an assault and
battery upon Police Officer Lawrence. It is alleged
that the prisoner was discovered In the act of rob
bing the money-drawer at the drug store of Dr.
Marsala, on South Fourth street, about 9 o'clock
yesterday morning." He made a hasty retreat, but
was captured by the police officer. The daring fel
low wriggled in the hands of the officer, and finally
