' • Highway _robberies have becomt alarm ingly frequent in our city within he past month, and unless some very stringent - measures are adopted 'to prevent their oc currence and secure the safety of the citi . .zens, it will soon be unsafe for a Man to pass through many portions-. of the city alone.. There appears to bo a regularly or ganized band of dastardly eut-throat rob . hers infecting the city, who commit their depredations with Impunity. Inoffensive men are knocked down and robbed •of Whatever of value they chance to have about them while passing from work to •their homes at all hburs of the night, yet the pa, lice are unable. to obtain any information as to who the m urde roudAlliana-are. No less than 'three men were robbed in this way One day last week, two of which have already been rdported in the city papers. The third was .Tames Moore, engineer on the tow boat Alps, "%rho was passing from• the boat up First Street to his residence on • Friday night about eight o'clock, and when near "Chancery Lane" be was assaulted by • three men who came up behind him. One of them dealt him a blow with a slung ave the rit eye whch stunned him, but . did notknock 'him i doivn. Ile turned round facing the villians, when he received another blow more eifectiye than the former, as it rendered -him insensible. Ho lay there for some chime, but finally re- covered, when he diseovered that his pocketbook containing five dollars, a silver watch and his hat had been taken. Ile has not the slightest idea who the villians were, as he had not time to see their faces before he received the blow which deprived Jinn of consciousness for the time. What can be done to prevent these murderous at tacks? Called to a New Field. Rev. Simon Greenleaf Fuller, pastor of.

Mr. Fuller has had charge of the St. Peters congieliation : for some three years, during which time he has made many warm friends, and has rendered almost universal satisfaction to .. his' harge.

Arbuthnot, Shannon k Co., the proprietors of the well known, old estab lished and, popular Wholesale dry goods house, N0.15-Wood street, have long pre sented veryl superior attracWns in the way of advantageonii prices, large and excellent selection and variety Of stock, and have succeeded in building up a trade fully equal , to that of any loading mercantile house engaged in that line of business. They but recently received a very large invoice of general dry goods, trimmings_ and no tions, which embraces everything that is suitable to the seasons of spring and sum mer. Those goods were purchased 'for cash during the temporary panic which latel,v swept over the Eastern cities, and can be disposed of to the patrons of this house at. much cheaper • prices than those which now rule in New fork, Baden and -Philadelphia. This may appear strange to'. _those not thoroughly posted on the ir.regu larities and consequent re in prices, which marked tho early opening of the importers and manufacturers' spring trade, but to experienced buyers presents no anomaly or perplexing problem. Those merchants, and they were few in number, who were fortunate enough to* make their purchases during the conservatism hf business,- secured immense adVantages which cannot possibly be again obtained during the present season. After the mar kets strengthened, the•losses sustained in. sacrificing goods to meet pressing oblige tion.s, made imperative by a disordered con dition of affairs, had to be made good by largely advanced prices, and late buyers were the sufferers. .Messrs. ' Arbuthnot, Shannon d: Co, propose to shire their ad -vantages with their patrons, and r as we have remarked, are now selling goTtqlsiltetver than they can be purchased in the ;eastern mar kets. The home dealers. will readily disby cover wherein they 'be be conferring to this represe will ntatiyernfirm etittead full share of patronage, as they can buy cheap. or and, save the incidental expenses and freight incurred by bestowing orders or making purclaasing,visits to the East, and will obtain as admirabte a choice and selec tion. Anyof our readers visiting the city to lay in their fresh supplies, or who are replenishing their stoks by order, should keep• in view this old and high standing business house, and become satisfied through buying experience that it is lamaly to their interest to confine their patro nage at home. ___ Improve= ------------------------The Proper Course Adopted. The old saying that "Time levels all things," is abont'to be verified in some of our city improvements. In the Gazette of Friday we referred to the proposed change of grade on Clymer street, so as to run the water from Penn street to the river, , , o be e t x o te r n ais d. o an suggested that the proper method of refer ,t grade of Penn street, where it had been Saturday, that obje lowered sonie.four years since, to a proper' eighth, instead df lowering Ifulhery alley, inch is situated between Penn and the Ter, at a grade'of thirteen inches higher t an the former. It now appears that our iews regarcting the matter were correct, as the . Water Committee visited the locality m re P a lialli to onn g ing the water main to Lawrenceville, t e r t el l te d t ad decided to raise the grade on -Penn fe t and bight inches before laying the pipe. It is the intention to lay a twenty inch ter main on Penn from Clymer street to 8 Mary's avenue, which will connect with an t twelve inch main on, Liberty and e t inch pipe on Smallman street, from h small pipes will be extended on rep eville. This will probably, interfere wit some few property holders, on Penn stie t, as the distance the grade will have v, v ral of the principal streets in Law to', lie raised comprises two , squares, on si l 1 1. W eh several .fine buildings have been er cted since the street was cut down, but thocommittee take a very common sense view of the matter, as they say the grade will have to be raised eventually and the sooner it is done the less property' will i be injured by it. The matter will be, brought before Council to-daY, as a special meeting has been called by the Water COM mittee for that purpose. - Death of Mrs. Stockton. Another of the few remaining links Which connect the present with the early history of these cities has passed away. Mrs. Fstlier Stockton,' relect -of the late liev. Joseph Stockton, died yesterday morn rilig at her residence on Stockton avenue, haying just, entered upon.:her eighty-. Seventh year. This good - old lady, until within a week of her death, had enjoyed ,a long life almost without a day's sickness,. retaining in much vigor her senses of sight, hearing and memory. Her last sickness proceeded from a cold contracted in nurs ing a sick son, her maternal solicitude prompting her to intertiens' and exposure unsuited to the natural infirmities of her advanced years. For her the impending change had no terrors;' her gentle and pious life was the preparation for a peaceful and submissive death; with her the transition its from s t :vroridof sorrow -and _gloom, to a paradise of eifdlesti joy. Among her sur vivors there is no one around whom so many •pleasant- and-gratefal memories clus ter; no one more loved or venerated; not her many descendants and their connec tions alone, but all 'her cotemporaries, and especially l the vider . 'citizens of . Pitts burgh and Alregheny, And' of - the country around, will mourn the death of this aged matron as of h a d whoa°. lif urity and innocence had won their aff ec tions, and will extend their heart-felt sympathies to thestric.ken and bereaved, members of her family: - - A New York plerehautillanufacturlng Shoe BlaCklng. Several weeks since, a man calling him self J. (4. Oliver, came to the city and put • up at the 'Eagle Hotel, representing, as the proprietr of that establishment alleges, that he was a New York wholesale dry . goods merchant, and had come to•the city fo the purpose of selling goods. Under these representations - he was furnished accommodations at the Eagle, where it ap pears he remained several weeks, at the end of which time Mr. Robert Steel, the proprietor of the Eagle Hotel, thought it time - that his board bill, which amounted to $45 should be paid. The New , York merchant was not prepared to settle the bill at that time, but promised to do so the next day. The next day came, but ithe New. York 'irierchant did. not.: The land lord was not to • be cheated out of the amount of his bill in that manner, how ever, and instituted search for his delinq uent boarder. He was tracked to a "sky parlor" at the corner of Vi Alley and -Liberty. street,- -where ho was engaged in the manufacture of shoe blackin. Mr. Steel made information before Ald g erman 3feliituters, charging.Olivertith obtaining board under false pretence. He was arrest ed and after a hearing committed to jail in default of-the required bait, for his appear ance at Court. Messrs. miff ii; Co.. 'rho well known and fashionable tailors, ..

Upon this broadfact is founded the whole art and science of medicine 4: That every disease has its curable stage under proper treatment, there can be no doubt. - That they have their incurable stage, un der any treatment, may be equally true. The curable period is during the, early part of the disease, of course. The incur able being the advanCed condition—the last stage. To know the precise nature, extent and locality, of the disease is of the first im portance in the treatment of any case. This is precisely the reason given by Dr. Oldshue, of Pittsburgh, for bringing into requisition the Microscope, Test-tube, Urmometer, and all the Chemical appara tus for the scientific examination of the urine in all chronic and complicated cases. • The long afflicted have 'not 'been slow to appreciate these scientific aids, and the con sequence •is, his office is one continued throng of patients from all parts of tho country, seeking the advantages of this Skill in diagnosis. A knowledge of the appropriate remedy, however, is quite important , as without the remedy no advantage would be gained by knowing the disease. Every disease has its remedy. This is verified in the tact that different medicines spend their action upon different parts of the human system. As each particular disease Spends its • principal baneful action upon x : certain organ or tissue of the body according to its peculiar nature, so each particular remedy spends Its medicinal action upon a certain organ or tissue according to its' medicinal qualities. Having a knowledge of the true nature of the case, as also of theappropriate rem edy, the next matter , of importance is its proper preparation and application.. This should be carefully attended to, and as far as practicable all medicines should be examined by the physician before being put into the :hands of the patient or nurse. This Is done in the office of Dr. Oldshue before mentioned. All his medicines are compounded'and his prescnptiorui filled by his own. special direction, and under. his: own supervisiori. No medicines are passed from his- pre scriptions but through his hands. This great care and caution in prescrip tions, together with the very scientihe mode of his examinations bas no doubt contributed much to his . great success in , practice. Hundreds of apparently the very worst 'cases, including all kinds of chronic affec tions, female diseases, • weaknesses,: have found permanent relief at, his bands and at very moderate cost. , • A Splendid lifarm for Sale. • Mr. G.
