    CITY AND SIIBURIIAN.
'• Church Dedication at YoCnigatiorn.
' The new and beautiful church edifice
which has just been completed by the
United Presbyterians of Youngstown, Ohio,
was formally dedicated to •the worship of
Almighty God, on Sabbath, the sth instant.
•
The services were conducted in the morn
.
ing by Rev. John. B. Clark D• •,
D of Al
legheny, who delivered an appropriate dis
course on the "GlOry of the Temple at
Jerusalem." In the afternoon, Rev.
John Douglas, D. D., of this city, preached
a sermon on the "Universal Glory of
Christ's Church. Rev. C. A. Dickey,
of Allegheny, occupied the pulpit in the
evening, and delivered a sermon on "The
Work of the Lord." Ministers of different
denominations in the city of Youngstown
took part in the devotional exercises.
Soine of them showed their kindness and
g.ood - will by dispensing with service in
their own churches in order that they and
their people might attend • the dedication
services, which were solemn and impressive
throughout.
A collection was taken up at the close of
• each service for the purpose of defraying a
small debt incurred in the erection of the
building Both the members of the con
gregation and the citizens generally con
- tribute(' liberally on the occasion, and it is
expected that as much was realized as-will
cancel the whole debt. ,
Rev. Mr. Ornumd, pastor of •the Church,
and - his people deserve much credit for the
zeal and perseverance which they have
displayed in the erection of such a beau
tiful place of worship, as the congregation
is merely in its infancy.
On Saturday evening Dr. John B. Clark
delivered a lecture on "Work and Wages,"
in Aims' Hall. Dr. John Douglas deliv
ered a lecture in the someplace on Monday
evening, subject: "The Divine Element in
the History of our Country." - The pro
veeds of both lectures were:appropriated to
the benefit of the congregation.
An Amicable Arrangement.
Thursday evening Fanny Showers, a
young Miss between thhteen and fourteen
Years of age, made information before May
or "Drum charging Clement Snyder'with`
seduction under promise of marriage. The
parties reside in Allegheny, and it appears
that some months since Snyder formed an
acquaintance with Fanny, which, soon ri
...
pened into an intimacy, and, as thegirl al
leges, under a promise of marriage - he se
duced her. She urged him to fulfill his
promise and make her hiswife, buthe post
poned the matter by promises until a short
time ago he finally refused to marry her, in
consequence of which she made the infor
• mation. Ho was arrested on Thursday
night and,taken to the lock-u At the
time of his arrest he denied the charge
flatly, and said he would allow the Court to
settle the matter. A night's .lodgings on
the "soft side" of a plank in the watch
house had a tendency, however, to change
his determination of .the evening previous,
and caused him to see matters in a differ
ent light. Through the interposition of
friends of the parties the affair was arnica
. bly arranged, the girl sent for and a wed
ding ensued, Mayor Drum officiating. Af
ter, the ceremony, the "twain made one"
departed from the office, apparently well.
pleased with the result.
A Reliable Insurance Company
In selecting Insurance companies worthy
of confidence and conducted in such a man
ner as to afford ample guarantee to the pub
lic that they are eminently safe- and tella
ble, we trust our readers will not fail 'to
award the proper attention to the Ben
Franklin Insurance Company, of Alleghe
gheny City. This institution, which is in a
most healthy and fbarishing condition,
is
managed by directors who are well and fa
vorably known as leading, trust worthy
and reliable business men of our own com
munity, and every precaution is taken to
render it safe to those who bestow upon it
their patronage. The company promptly
meets all its obligations to, the assured, and
will never be found taking advantage of,
'legal technicalities to evade the payment of
losses it may sustain. Persons desiring to
obtain fire risks, are cordially commended
to the Ben Franklin Company, whose office
is in the Franklin Savings Bank building
No. 43 Ohio street, and where the obliging
and gentlemanly Secretary, Geo. D. Riddle,
Esq., will be found to give any needed in
formation regarding its rates and affairs.

the jury found for the defendants.
Frederick Braun vs. Dallas C. Irish et al.
This was an action to recover damages sus
tained to a lot of drugs stored in plaintiff's
cellar, on St. Clair street. Deferalants are
owners of a building adjoining that former
ly _ occupied by plaintiff, in the cellar of
which is a pipe connecting withthe main
sewer, leading byway of St. Clair street to
the river. Plaintiff alleged that the stop
cock to the pipe had been loft open through
carelessness on the part of the defendants,
and that the water from the sewer over
flowed his cellar and damaged the drugs
stored therein. After the testimony of the.
plaintiff had been concluded, the Court,
being of the opinion that a' case had not 'been
made out, ordered judgment of non-suit to
be entered.
Quarter Sessions... Judge Mellon
In the case of Jacob
,and Lonis Seiferth,
who were indicted for committing an as
sault and battery upon their father, Jacob
Seiferth, Jr., the jury found a verdict of
not guilty, and directed the prosecutor to
pay the costs. The father was convicted on
an indictment charging him with having
committed an assault upon his sons, and
the Court sentenced defendant to pay a fine
of one dollar and the costs of prosecution.
The grand jury ignored the bill against
Albert Peters,, who was charged with big
amy on oath of Nancy Jane Peters, his
wife. The information was made before
Justice James M. Dive. The prosecutrix
alleged that she was married to defendant
on the 15th of January, 1865, but that
since that time he contracted a marriage
with Caroline Sterling. The grand jury,
in ignoring the bill, directed• the county
to pay the costs. Peters was discharged by
proclamation.
John McClaren was indicted for nuisance,
- the charge being preferred by John D.
Scully, President of the Monongahela Turn
pike Company. It was alleged that the de
fendant objected to paying toll for his teams
passing through the toll-gate, and that the
toll keeper refused to allow him to go
through. Defendant directed his drivers to
turn their teams and Wagons into the mid
ple of the road, where they were allowed to
remain for some time, and obstructed other
travel. The defense claimed that the gate_
was closed, and that the toll keeper was
responsible for any obstruction that occur
red. It was in evidence, however, that at
the time the gate was closed the defend
ant's team was at the side of the road, and
that he instructed the drivers to occupy
the centre. -The jury found a verdict of,

The same.defendant was arraigned on an
indictment for keeping and maintaining a
nuisance,the charge also being preferred
by Mr. Scully, as President of the Turn
pike Company. The indictment charged
him with maintaining a coal platform, op
posite Moorhead's mill, which obstructed
the road at that point. Jury out.

Tuesday " morning; March. -- 31, we nub- '
lished an account of the coal minerfit riot
at O'NeilPs coal works, on the -Mononga
hela river, in which Francis Belger, one of
the rioters, was • shot -by 'William Hart,
,
night watchman' at Mr. - - O'Neill's works.
The following day we also published - the
testimony adduced , at the Coronet's inquest
held by Coroner Clawson,
in which we
stated, that William Hart ha d been arrested
and heldto 'answer the charge of murder.
He• was subsequently brought be
fore the Court and Hart released on tail.
Yesterday "the . case, was brought before
the Grand Jury and 'the - bill ignored, on
the ground, we presume, that the act was
justifiable.. Mr. H.artluis an excellent repu
tation where he is known, and from the
facts in the case was evidently instigated
by no other motive than that of saving the
life of his employer in committing the act '
which resulted in the death of Belger, as his
conduct was quite 'the reverse of that of a
malicious and depraved man. His conduct
diming the affair was highly commendable,
and doubtless the means of suppressing a
terrible and bloody riot, as Bolger, who
appeared to be the leader of the riot, was a
despilate man.

Au Editors' Experience of Tooth-Drawing.
Of all the ills that flesh is heir to we've
always held that tooth-ache is the cussed
est. Night before last our evil star -being
in the ascendant, we unfortunately drank a
glass or- two too much, eat rather much
fried oysters and crackers and consequent
ly got home late and forgot to say our pray
ers. Now its a singuiar thing that we never
neglect our prayers but what we're punish
ed for it. This case was no exception; the
punishment came direct, swift and terrible,
we awoke in the morning with a fearful
tooth-ache. We were awful pious then,
said our prayers devoutly, but it was no
use, repentance came too late. We bore it
patiently awhile, then lost patience and
swore. But even that didn't help us. The
case Was desperate; something must be
done. With oneburrit and blistering cheek
pressed upon a hot smoothing-iron, we
tried to reflect coolly. 'But one cause pre,
-sented itself. The tooth must be drawn, pro
vided we could get our wife's permission.
Kind good woman that she is, she gave it,
thougia reluctantly, thinking how awful
Would be if the plumpness of our cheek
should disappear with our tooth, and our
visage should,be lean and sunken like Mrs.
H—'s husband's. Of course there was
but one place to go. Dr. Spencer ' that best
of good fellows, is the only man breathing
who should handle lance and forceps in the
neighborhood, of our _ masticators; and
we'd take Laughing Gas too. The
worthy Doctor, may his tribe increase,
drew forth a bag like that from which jarr
ing winds of old burst forth and drove the
ancient Ulysses a wandering out on the
trackless seas. We put the bag to our
mouth, breathed into it, and in less time
than you could say Jack Robinson, our
usually logical roots were' scattered in as
many ways as was the fleet of the • old
Greek. We thought - we were astride a
fiery comet with a long switching tail,
riding a race on the Oakland Course
against Dexter, and we were beating him
blind. The bet was Trinity Church against
the drinks for the party that Dr. Spencer
could beat the whole set of impeachment
attorneys at Washington drawing out: that
he could even draw Grant out if he'd take
some Laughing GM: and we were sure to
win. Not that we wanted the think. Oh,
no! But we'd just like to win. Before
reaching fi he stand the scene changed, and
we found ourselves in Washington in the
midst of several prominent members of
Congress, with aglass of the best Bourbon
in our hand. “Here'S to you," says we,
winking at the nearest of them, and rais
ing the glass to our lips, when suddenly
we found ourselves lying in a comfortable
arm chair inDr. Spencer's elegant estab
lishment, 254 Penn street, cur toothache
gone, and we feeling gloriously. We've
resolved, and with:our excellent wife's ap
proval, that henceforth when we want en- -
joynient, instead of going on a spree, we'll go
to Spencer's, take laughing gas r and have a
tooth extracted.

~.;WhEhk.4,,thatiteetivangiven cheaper and,
better at Drs. Sill & Gillespie t s, 246 Penn
street, than at any other piaci, in Pittsburgh,
is explained in the following manner:
Ilrst: They refused to bear the imposi
tion of the Goodyeartat,' which amounted
to six hundred dollars per year on their es
tablishment. All other dentists of this
city have placed their necks in the Good
year yoke and are compelled to pay this
enormous tax and are equally bound -to
charge no less than twenty dollars, a set or
forty dollars for upper and lower slet, and
any violation of that written compact for
feits their license and a thousand dollars.
The firm of Drs. Sill &, Gillespie are at lib
erty to charge as they please. They are
producing a better plate . under a new pro
cess, than the old, and got their license of
the patentees, Drs. Newbrongh and Fagan,
of New York city. The latter kind of Vul
canite is superior in every" particular.
It contains no sulphur, and is more
healthy in the mouth than the Good
year Vulcanite. Drs. Sill & Gillespie
pay for their privileges in this new com
pany fifty dollars for seventeen years. If
the professsion had , kept a little better in
formed they could have saved themselves
a great expense, and all the freedom of
freemen. But in the place of that they are
paying the p e nalty of the dupe, and as soon
as their vision is clear they are mean
enough to take shelter like a whipped'dog
and cry "BOGUS, BOGUS," thus hoping to
alarm the Teeple and dissuade its use-till
they can be relieved from the present bond
age, and then it will -be seen how quick
they will be shoving the lodized Rubber
out as the greatest discovery in the known
world. Remember, friends and people
wanting teeth, all except Drs. Sill dr, Gilles
pie are constrained to charge twenty dol
lars for an upper set, as they have tied
their hands to the Goodyear Company to
make no vulcanite for less, or they do it at
the cost of having their license revoked at.a
loss of one year's tax, which is paid in ad
vance. We advise our readers to pat
ronize the persons who work to the interest
of the public, and that place will be found
at 246 l'enn street, Drs. Sill dr, Gillespie.

Explanation.
A Deaf Man Recovers his Hearing in Five
- Minutes , Time Under the Skillful Treatr•
ment of Dr. Aborn.
After suffering from deafness for upwards
of five years without any relief, it gives me
great pleasure to give publicity to the fol
lowing facts: I applied to Dr. Aborn, 134
SMithfield street, and in five mimites time,
he restored my hearing. The sudden res
torationof my hearing causes me to feel as
though I had been transported to another
world. Persons afflicted as I have been
should lose no time in calling on the Doc
tor. He is a gentleman of few words,.but
his successful treatment speaks louder than
human tongue. FREDERICK SHANER,
Harrison City, Westm'd Co., Pa.
NOTE.—Dr. Aborndevotes special atten
tion to the treatment of all diseases inci
dent to the Eye, Ear, Head, Throat and
organs of the Chest. Will be professional
ly at his rooms, No. 134 Smithfield street,
from 9 A. M. to .4 P. M.
"The Sweetest Thing 'ln Life , ' is good
health and good spirits, and if you have
them not, the next best thing is what will
restore bloom to the faded cheek and hap
piness to the drooping heart. The great
and sure remedy is Plantation Bitters, which
our physicians recommend .to both male
and- femaie patients, as a safe, reliable,
agreeable and cordial stimulant. They
contain nothing to disagree with the most
delicate constitution, and have won golden
-opinions from all who have tried them;
and probably no article was ever tried by
so many persons. They elevate the de
pressed and give strength to the weak.
