TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1805:
natty OP THE 3OLDIERS.- - A meeting of
. discharged Officers of Pennsylvania regiments
has been called by a number of gentlemen
who have been prominent hi the Union army,
for the purpose of ratifying the nominations
of Hartranit and Campbell; and also for the •
purpose of forming a permanent organiza
tion. Tho meeting will assemble at the Court
House in Harrisburg, on Wednesday, October
4th, and a very interesting occasion may be
expected. The soldiers have been fighting the
enemy - with the musket and the sabre, and
now, though they have laid aside their suits
of blue, they are banding together to crush out
the friends of treason andldisunion. The good
-wishes of the loyal men of the State will be
given them in the good work. May they stand,
-as they did in the last four years, a wall of fire
between the coward foe and free institutions.
Tun Thou PRICE Or . BUTTEII.—A Harrisburg
Paper says For some time past the market
people have been up' the prices of their
produce until it has reached an elevation' al
most unattainable to editors and other poor
Jolts, but to mechanics especially. This haS
been done in this way :—Jones asks Smith sotto
voce what he is selling his butter at. Smith re
plies, 'forty cents.' Jones says, that aint
enough, we can get sixty; put it up;'. and up
it goes. This amounts to a combination on the
_part of produce venders to keep up the prices
of the necessaries of life. His Honor, Mayor
Roumfort, determining to put a stola to this un
reasonable proceeding, and depress' the enor
'MOM prices, had seyoral of tb eicaders brought
before him this morning and gave them his
views' on the subject, and promised hi, at
tention, to them should this combination con
' tinne. This lAA good move, and we hope his
Honor Will insist upon reasonable prices. But
ter can be had, three miles oiit Of the City, for
twenty-five cents, and there is no reason for
asking such exorbitant prices.

ISpeeial Evport to The Press.)
As stated in OUT eoluums, yesterday, two
Celebratedbruisers, named "Jack" and "Jim 95
Turner, contended in a prize-fight the guer
don, $2,000. Both New York and Philadelphia
were considerably excited ; and the two men,
their trainers, and their movements were
themed around this city. Some men boldly
wagered all their money upon thevresult.
Our whisky establishments were thronged by
the admirers of the ilstie and muscular tour.
Dement, and the means of reaching the ring
Were anxiously canvassed. They 'were hard to
find, and when found were hard to pay for.
'The hackmen were in especial demand,
- and exorbitant prica Wore askefi, ranging
drem $5O to $7O. Most of the attendants were
compelled to give them $4O or $5O for the trip.
The three well-known resorts for sports,
- kept by Messrs. Senhar, Cropper and John
Lazarus, were thronged, at 4 A. M., with the
multitudinous admirers of the manly art, and
At about 4.30 A. M., a start was made by all the
company for the spot selected.
About fifteen minutes to four A, M. Jack
Turner made hie toilet, and hastened to the
Columbia bridge with all speed for them
stamps. The match being catch weights no
particular attention was paid to the actual
fighting physique of the men, but Jack being
the taller was in favor for the choice, but no
betting was generally made or offered at odds.
Every one on arriving at the bridge was anx
ious to know where the men were, but few
except the initiated had a chance to learn,
Jack was quietly ensconced in a cottage,
near the ring, which had been prepared
during the night, and Jim was taken
care of in a room at the Belmont Cot
tage, and attended by Ins seconds and friends.
The odds were in favor or Jack Turner,
although the betting was slow, and little
Money was invested. Belmont Cottage, on
the crowd reaching there, was speedily ex
hausted of its bibulants, and the "knucks" had
to feel good on sarsaparilla and other " non
committal" drinks, and be glad to get them.
THE UM.
The ring had been formed about half a mile
to the south of the " Cottage," and every one,
when be had quenched his thirst' and shook
hands with old friends who had joined
in the social glass years ago on many
such an occasion as a "merry mill," hied
thither to witness the exhibition. The ring
was pitched under sheltering trees, and was
speedily crowded by the anxious. The toss
for corners was won by Jim, who placed Jack
at the lower corner. Jake McKeown, once
head cook and bottle-washer at "Mahogany
Hall," South, above Eighth, but now de
scended to a freedOmship at the "Golden
Gate," 31arket..shova caunmin_
for a long time for anything he could get.
THE BATTLE..
James wee first into the ring and Jack short
ly followed after, and exclamations of trust
for both were uttered by their respective ad
miring friends, and at five minutes to seven
the men shook hands ana approached the
scratch for
Round I. Jack was taller than Jim, but
neither were in condition, Jim having evi
dently suffered from :some cause or other.
Jack was not tip-top. Little time was taken
up by sparring, and Jack got in with his left,
slightly, when a half-rally ensued, and Jack
was down amid the cheers of the . Jim Turner
party.
2. Jim twice on body aml face, ana both
down.
5. Jack right and left on body, getting away;
Jim on body, and Jack down.
The rounds were very similar, Jack having
the best of the hitting, and getting away in
admirable fistic style, while Jim was fighting
with both bands, at neck and body, amid the
supporting cheers of their friends.
First blood was claimed for Jim in the se
cond round, but not allowed. Jack invariably
got in his left on the face, and Jack's wife, who
bad followed him from the city, was urging the
poor fellow to the utmost. A commentary
Jack kept striking his man at every chance,
and Jim was not idle. It was evident
that Jack was the best fighter. Jim fought his
-man on the retreat, and suddenly put in a
double-facer to draw. But it seemed to matter
little, for this state of affairs went on some
time, till ultimately Jim fought Jack down.
Jack thought lie could win the fight easily, hut
he soon found he had a hard thing to do. Jack
Turner's friends were satisfied by his tactics
and fighting,afthough many seemed to fancyhe
could have clonebetter. Both men are fighters,
and if ever Jack Turner fights again he will
make his mark. Much dissatisfaction is felt
about the affair, and Jack will no doubt stick
to the claim for the money.
Nothing was definitely decided about the
stakes until after 6 P. AL, when the stake
holder, Brumacher, was notified not to give
up the stakes.
Jack Turner is evidently the best tighter,
and must have won the i1g,14 had the gentle
men from Market street, and Mr. Hastings, of
Vine street, had not had everything cut and
-dry. Further particulars will be given to
morrow,
This morning another combat takes place
up town, for the sum of $2OO. Nambers are
preparing to see it, and the hackman will have
another harvest.
THE CITY.
HONES FOR TEE PEOPLE.—Far and near,
from all we meet, comes the complaint " Why
are we forced to pay such high rents ?" Houses
are scarce. The population of the city has in
creased more rapidly than new accommoda
tions have been furnished. The natural Mint
is that, owin to the demand for houses, rents
have apprecia g
ted.
_
Now that the war is over, and the Govern
' meat is not in the market as a borrowers why
do not some of our public-spirited capitalists
build a number of dwellings, suitable for
small families, and let them. at a cheap
rent? It would be far better, at least more
honorable, than dabbling in fancy stocks,
of which, we have seen so much, and
which has led to such mournful results.
People have been seized with a desire to be
come suddenly rich, end hence too many have
abandoned the method of making an honest
fortune, and have embarked in wild specula.
tions where it will be a wonder if they ever
receive the slightest return for the capital
they have invested. They have become de
moralized by the chance of obtaining wealth,
and are willing to risk their all upon a far I
poorer chance than the turning of a card or
the cast of the dice. If they are not a prey to
the swindlers, they beeome swindlers them
selves. Thishas been well illustrated in some
of the transactions before our city-magic.
trait's, and whieh have been reported in these
columns.
A great and pressing_ need is for houses—
small, genteel houses. Here, now, is an oppor
tunity for the legitimate employment of capi
tal. If some of our prominent capitalists will
but form a company and build i few blocks of
dwellings, even in the suburban districts of
the city, they would have them filled with
good tenants, and would receive an excellent
interest on the outlay. Real estate is perhaps
as safe an investment as can be had. It is lia
ble to accident, of course; it may be destroyed
by flood or lire, or, as in one case that -hap
pened not long since, it may be carried off
bodily during the absence of the occupants.
But it may be conceded that a well put up
building, with a good tenant, is the safest, al
, thongh erhaps net the most lucrative method
of employing capital.
As it is, houses are very difficult to. obtain.
A quarter's rent in advance, and a heavy
bonus besides, are demanded by some agents
'for desirable propertlea. They are overrun
with applications, and cannot accommodate 'a
tenth part of their' callers. 'Many are now
living in rooms, three or four families occupy
ing.one house. Let not the evils of the tene
-meat houses, so common in New York, be in
:stituted here. We have a large territory, ea
'sensible on the north, south, and west, and
there ought to be e.house for every family. It
is this practice, heretofore adhered to in this
city that bas made Philadelphia so desirable
a city for- the 'working man. Hero he
could have a home. It has made us a
far healthier city than the " metropolis,, , as
our brethren arepleased to term New I ork.
T he evils of the tenement-house system can
not be too severe/5 , decried. They , are the
abodes of sin and misery, and nurseries tor all
that is low
and degrading. The districts
where the/ . abound have been appropriately
termed eveanestsn by, the press of that city.
Though we have
no recognized tenement
houses here yet the crowding together of so
many into one house will surely be productive
of ill effects.
lipme-hunting, at any time a task, becomes
a thousand-fold more irksome, The unfortu
nate may travel up one street and down.
another, and never meet with a single sign—
"To Lel." We have known parties, who, flee
ing that a cellar was being dug in some eligi
ble loon lity, hen aseertained the owner, and
bargained for and rented the house
that site, before the foundation
tilio-callolsc3clllll3lie3r3O laid. Such might well be caned
"taking time by the forelock." It shows the
straits to which some people are reduced, and
the means theyare COMpeiled to employ to,se
cure accommodations.
. Give us houses, oh Iye capitalists, and the
thanks of grateful, paying tenants shall re
sound in your ears, while the greenbacks will
ever be ready on rent-day. The people want
homes, and it is in .your power to give them.
•The investment le sure, and cannot but be
profitable.
THE CHESTNUT-STREET BRlDGE.—Pre
parations for putting in position the segmen
tal arches to span the bridge over the Schuyl
kill fiver at Chestnut street, are being pushed
rapidly forward. There will be two arches of
105 feet span each over the water and two in
the approaches upon each side of the river
with spans of 60 and 53 feet. On the eastern
side there is an additional arch over Twenty:
fourth street, the earringe•way of which is
spanned by an arch of 26 feet, With s feet 6
inches rise, and a 7 feet semi-circular arch
over each feet-way. The shore spans are seg:
mental arches,with versed sines relatively of
1$ and 16 feet, The street arch is fine centred.
The main spans are Intended to be segmental
arches of cast iron with a versed sine of 20
feet, the ribs to have a depth of 4 feet, with
a sectional area of 147.05 square inches, which,
with six ribs, will give SSS square Inches of re
sisting area to each span.
The abutments are 42 feet 2 inches in length
of roadway and 55 feet 2 inches wide at spring
ing line, with three horizontal cells in each,
arched at both ends, the thickness of solid
work at springing on face being 16.5 feet,
and oif back from - which the first stone arch
springs, 6 feet, The cells are each 7.5 feetwide
with piers 4.1 wide between. The approach on
the east, which is in part sustained by retain
ing• IN-alls, is 505 feet long from the west line of
Twenty-third street, on the east to the east
-abutment, measurine front abutment face, and
on the west 547!4 feet longfrom the east line of
Thirtieth street to west abutment face. The
pier in the middle of the river is about 50 feet
West of the channel, and stands about 5 feet in
its length (73.r>7 feet) askew with the general
direction of the river at that point, with a
width of sixteen feet at springing line. The
d istances between pier and abutments are 185
feet, thus giving a totallength to the structure,
inclusive of approaches, of 1,1251-4 foot.
The masonry on main abutments and pier,
as well as the abutments and pier of approach
arches, are faced with closely-cut granite,
from the quarries of Fox Island, off the coast
of Maine, near Rockland. It is laid with the
kleinish bond (alternate header and stretcher),
with face "dabbed" and "drafted." No
stretcher has less than 2 feet bed and 6 feet
length ; no header less than 4 feet length, with
2 Sect face, the Courses varying in thickness
from 20 inches to 2 feet. The backing, which
is from the Lelperville quarries, is generally
laid with roughly-dressed beds and builds.

(MARGE or CONSPIRACY.
Ex-Alderman Robert L. Curry, Patrick and Ce
celia Lanigan, and Hannah McCready - , were charged
with conspiracy. The evidence showed that a letter
addressed to a female had been opened by one of the
defendants. Mary McKibben was subp<nnaed to
testify before an alderman to that effect, and after
her testimony she was arrested by. Cecelia on a
charge of assault and battery. Curry entered bail
for her, and afterwards took out a ball piece and
put her 11. prison. He had already obtained $5 from
Lanigan and $52,50 from McCready to get Mrs.
McKibben into prison. After surrendering her on
the bail piece, the evidence showed that he took her
out of prison for the sum of five dollars, which she
paid bun. All of this the Commonwealth allege was
done so that Mrs. McKibben could not testify in tile
ease of the letter being broken open: also, that the
alltged assault and battery never had been com
mittee., and the charge was a trumped-op one.
The defence produced no evidence, relying upon
the insufficiency of the Commonwealth's testimony.
The docket of Alderman Warren, before whom
these proceedings occurred, showed that it had been
kept in a very slovenly manner, being interlined
throughout, and so the eonrt Informed the jury.
The ease occupied the bestportion of the day.

then came down and pulled Mrs. Bond's hair out.
and the next day she came and b:e the glass.
Another difficulty.' had Preriousiroccurred by
Margaret coming to tile house drank and demanding
liquor, which was refused her. The witnesses for
the defence testified that Mrs. Cooper came to the
house drunk and asked for English Jane, meaning
Mrs. Bond, when the latter set upon her with her
niece i and beat her. Verdict guilty on Pottscharges,
