Thelreturns from the various - wards were reported at the Reptiblican Headquarters, City Hall, on Saturday night. "There were • present fully two thousand persons, - and as the figures coninficed develop them selves in favor of o e and then the other candidate, the pm tizans cheered lustily. Towitrds ten o'clock the result was an., neunced by Messrs. Slagle and Lambie, and three times three thundering cheers went up for Brush, McGowan and Cochrane, the nominees, and for Grant and Colfax. A large number of the party then ad journed to the office of W. C. Moreland. Esq., Fifth street, where Mr. Brush was awaiting the result, and serenaded that gentleman. After the usual hand shak ing, brief speeches were made by Messes. Slagle and Aloreland, after which the meet lug adjourned. A Young Hopeful. Saturday afternoon a buy about sixteen ,yearit of age, named; John Cutler, was ar rested in South Pittsburgh by officer Stem / /or, on a charge of larceny. It appears that he was passing along Third street in that borough, and when In front of Mr. Joseph Hurley's grocery stord he observed that gentleman come out of the store, cross the street and enter a butcher shy on the op posite, side. • Observing that - there was no one lathe store r be deliberately walked in; opengd:-the'"castvdrawer and appropriated _the contents, 'amounting in sit to 'about fifteen dollars, and made his escape. Mr. H. cone out lof the butcher , shop just in time to see hint leave"the store. and on en • tering his estriblishment.discovered that he bad been robbed. He immediately started in pursuit- of ithe young rascal; init - eduld: not overtake'' him. Officer Sternler was then put upon his trackt, and sometime in the afternoon succeeded in arresting him in a lumber yard In the rear of Justice Barker's office... It appears that while being pursued by Hurley the:' bey had passed through the yard and hid the money, and had returned to recover , it; when the•offieer nabbed him. As ...Don as the officer, got hold of him lie admitted his guilt and 'conducted him to where the money was seereted. , Be- was then taken to the office of Justice', Barker, where an information for larceny was made against hire. - I - • He is a bright intelligent boyand tells a very olausable sten, which, if true, would beet least an excuse for_hts crime.

Brush For . Mayorttobert J. McGowan for CoutrollerA. J. Cochran for Treasurer. The - Primary elections Of the Union Re publican party of consolidated Pittsburgh proceeded en Saterday„. : afterneen in a spirited though peaceful and orderly man ner, and as a result lwe have .put forward a ticket -embracing the names of gentlemen who will rally to their support every honest and consistent member of the party. The subjoined returns will show what a deep interest was taken in the nominations, which are equivalent to election, in-all of the wards, the vote out being unusually l a i g e. It was a subject of general re mark • throughout the City that a much better class than generally participate at primary elections were in attendance at the polls and worked diligently to secure the nomination of their respective „favorites. The universal fairness and honor which marked the elections, and the general sat isfaction expressed over the result, spoke volumes in favor of the Crawford county sYstem of nominating, over the corrupt delegate plan discarded. The people were mat in their might, and the contest was a fair, square, good humored earnest light, but . the very mohient the result was an nounced an fell into the lines, awl with To ciferdus cheers, and ether manifestations Of approval, gave the, pledge that there will be no bolting from the ticket. For Mayor, Jared M. Brush was nomi nated, leading Mr. Jeremy G 29 totes. Per haps the citizens never before had such acceptable material before them from which to make a Mayor as in these three gentle hien,. and no mistake would have been made to have selected either. Mr. Brush is in every respect .worthy the honor con ferred upon him. A man of solid sense, practical and determined, he ' will make most an excellent Chief Magistrate to pre side over our city.' Ho belongs to the working classes, and although made corn fortably-'wealthy out of hard labor mid toil, his interests will always continue to be identifie'd with the laboring element of society. He will find no more ardent sup porters than his two competitors for the office, Messrs. Jefemy'and Robb. The com paratively small vote which the latter gen tleman received islargely attributable to the fact that he entered the field at the eleventh hour, having been called out juSt three days previous to Saturday. Mr. ,1 erb my made a good fight, and his nianly course in-submitting without a murmur to the voice of the people commends hint to ()Very member of the party. For Controller, Robert J. Melowau, of the Fifth ward; was nominated, leading Mr. Steel 272 votes. While thousands will regret the circumstance which deprives the city of the services of the present Control ler, whose efficiency and ability are un questionable, still the nomination atiords very general satisfaction. Mr. McGowan is a man of decided worth Mid integrity and will discharge the duties of the position with marked care and lie is thor oughly conversant with the affairs pi' the city, having served many years in the City Councils. He has a host of friends and will add vastly to the strength of the ticket. He is taken fresh from the workshop to serve the people: in a responsible position for which he has undoubted qualification?. The remaining candidate, A. J. Cochran. of the old Ninth ward, for City Treasurer, received a handsome majority over his cembetitors, all of whom were excellent men." Mr. Allinder developed consider. able strength-which proves how highly his past services in the Treasurer's office, hive been appreciated. The nominee is an ad nil -rable and wise selection. He is very popu lar with all classes of society, and when elected will he found more than equal to the responsibilities of the position. He, ton, is a practical Workingman, and has never figured much in politics. Messrs. Tomlin son and Little, whose names wore, also before the people for the Treasurship, Wade no special effort to secure the nomination, permitting the contest to rest between Messrs. Cochran and Allinder. Upon the whole the ticket is a goad • and strong one, anu will be elected by an old fashioned • majority in October. Here are -the returns : MA101L.,.. CONT'Ff.

Bayne was introduced, and proceeded to address the meeting, and he did it, too, in such a style that I verily think that the "nnterritied" felt for once at least,that a thunderbolt was hurled amongst them. lie spoke in actable, eloquent and geOtle manly manlier; hiS reasoning; was full of logic; he appealed, to reason and not to passim); he believed a political speech con -1 sisted not in slandering and vituperating men of; the opposite party, but in stating plain, unvarnished facts, pointing out the , truth of one doctrine and the fallacies of the other. The Colonel is a young man, but he is a man: who will make his mark some day if life and health be spared him. "May his. shadow never grow lets:" lie ceased sptaking and a vote of thanks was given with a right good will to the worthy speakers for the importantservice rendered by them on them on the occasion, After three rousing cheers for Grant and Colfax the meeting adjourned. Meeting at Mt. Washington. A large and enthusiastic Republican-mass meeting of the Citizens of igt. Washington was bald on SatUrday evening, at the school ho I use of the borough.he meeting was called to order by the Pr silent of the Grant Club, Mr. David Ft rgu,Son,who introduced W. J. McCune, Es . This gentleman compared. the war re ord of the two parties, and held that as du ing the war, the Republicans - were charged With it, they now were entitled to all the credit. He was listened to with close attention for about forty minutes, during which time he dissected modern DeMocracy pretty thoroughly'. H.C. Mack rell, Esq., was, next introduced, and said that the last time he was on the hill was in 1863. Then:we were preparing to protect ourselves from the same enemy who now threatenes us. ' In alluding to the convention of pure pa trrotsthat lately metat New York—amongst them the, sainted Vallandigham and holy Forrest—and also to their generous proposal to pay off the debt • without money and without 'price, he touched lightly on the oppOition candidate for Congress. Mr. Burtt's position lie very happily illustrated by a little story, which was received with rousing cheers. J. W. Murray, Esq., then fl - ,llowed for a few minutes, limiting himself entirely to the necessity of organization. Meetings and enthusiaSm are very 'well and great helps, but the quiet canvassing is what shows on election day, and this we can have only by thoreugh organization. J. S. Robb, Esq., then made a hasty re view of the results of the war and the issues before the nation, and after showing the great consequences 'at stake; urged active and energetic organization to save what was so dear to loyal Americans. ' Nearly one-half of the voters then present came forward and signed the roll of the Grant and Colfax Club, after which the meeting adjourned, Fourth {lard, Allegheny A meeting was held Saturday evening at Eistuarek Ifall of the Union Republi cans of the Fourth ward, Al itgliony City; for tho l nrgr,rci of fornting a Gr.int Clue to co.operate with the Grant clubs heretofore formed throughout the comity during the pre sent campaign.

The f3StiVitieti Will comprise a grand con cert of all the different societies, number ing about twenty-three, with an elaborate orchestra aecomp raiment, a spqc.ial concert contest by the loading societies, a torch light procession, a picnic and a ball. After due consideration of the suitable ness of the different halls and localities that criuld he used on the occasion it was decided to select Turner Hall, on Sixth street, as headquarters and decorate it in the best manner possible After the arrival of the foreign societies a torchlight procession is to be formed to march to the Keystone Skating Rink, Allegheny City, headed by his Excellency Governor Geary and other distinguished guests, where speeches of welcome will e delivered, and the pro ceedings diver Hied - by vocal and instru mental music. The rink will be gorgeous _ El= the occasion On Tuesday, 7eptember Ist, a iirAnd eon- COT I Will bit en by the combined socie ties, assisted iy sonic of our prominent vocal and instr mental artists. The selec tion of the pie of music has been care- fully compiled to make a harmonious en- se !Ale, arid ha N, e been on rehearsal for some time past. Th orchestra has been Selected from among 00 best musicians here, and is under the lea lership of Mr. Geo. Toerge, assisted by his talented brothers and others. The third day will be devoted to the business part of the societies, and in the evening a concert is arranged to take place in Turner Hall, on Sixth street, by the dif ferent socisties. Great painshave been hike!) by the separate societies to make this part of the programme as attractive as pos sible and to give satisfaction: For the fourth day ti pie-uic has been arranged to take place in Iron City Park, to which all the societies will march in procession. A strong effort has been made by the leaders Of the whole enterprise to select a more picturesque place for the pic-nic, one show ing tho surroundings of Pittsburgh to .a better advantage, but the distances are too great and the difficulties insurmountable. The festivities will conclude with a ball in the Turner Hall, where ample preparations be made in the large and splendidly decorated hall and on the ground floor to accommodate all who wish to gratify their taste for waltzing. Take it all in all, it iS a great undertaking, considering that the management generally rests with a few re sponsible and energetic men, but we are glad to hear that some of our moat distin guished German citizens have put their shoulders to the wheel and are hound to Succeed. If the festival is not equal to the performances of the Ariiin and Luderkranz of New York, it will certainly not be bo hind anything ever undertaken in this city. The Prize-Ring--Disgracetul Scene in the Lie:rent NV ard. Notwithstanding, the fact that City CMin cils have decided that the police force was sufficiently large, and what there is of it is said to be well regulated and efficient, an accursed incident transpired within the limits of the city which would indicate either a lack of vigilance on the part of the police, or that their number was insuffi cient for the amount of duty to be per formed. The disgraceful affair took place at the Cor ner of Cliff and Green streets, in the Elev enth ward, - Saturday eveniml;, in the way of a prize fight, in which Tom Burk and Billy McCluskey were the principals, and terminating in a general row, in which young Richardson and others acted in a very disgraceful manner. About eleven o'clock r. M. the parties and their friends repaired to the place named to fight for twenty-five do:lars a side. A ring was formed and the bruisers enter ed, with their seconds, and the fight corn meneed. M'Cluskey proved ton much for Burke, who ve.is. knocked “out of time" about the tburth round. . The tight alone was bad enough, but the crowd of black guards and cut-throats, which had assem bled to witness the disgraceful sceile,were not content, but made it still more dis graceful by attacking and boating the win ning man into a perfect jelly. .N,) sooner was the - light decided by tho referee, than someone struck M'Cluskey with a "billy"' and knocked him down, after which the greater portion , of the crowd kicked, and beat kilin in a most shameful 'manner. It is alleged that Richardson used tho "bil ly." but it is hard to tell who did it as the crowd was terribly excited. The affair lasted for fully an hour. and the con fusion, cursing and moving of the crowd of cut-throats and bruisers 'Could be heard for over a square. It appears, however,: ateLe Were no police in that neighbOohood.. Not a blue coat: could be found.

Dancing is enjoyed in the evening in the parlors of the different hotels. The most interesting; as well as amusing sights or study, are the toilettes and particular car riage or motion of the leading belles. If the grandmothers could be resurrected and ,stood in line with the daughters and moth ers, what an interesting spectacle they would present. The old adage that "history buf repeats itself," would be verified. By reference to old pictures and histories it Will be found that a fashion or form of toilette, ultra or extravagant substantially appears at least every fifty years. The very. extreme of the present Paris toilette prevails-at Sara toga to-day, or rather an imitatioh which might be called a burlesque or extra vaganza of an antique style. sot a bell or swell hoop is to be found where once an army of them was in motion. The chignon is-worn on top of the head, with two switches inserted in the hair about thirty degrees below the key of the arch on each side of the center, which form pendants like the horns of .a goat, or to be more precise, like those of a chamois. The dress has a medium waist adapted to a hoop somewhat of the shape of a barrel, large at the 'center and small at each end, with a backward swell to assist in forming the train. A large. bustle, or "pan nier," is worn at the top of the hoop, upon which is gathered up five or six yards of material in a kind of bundle. This is called the "blanchisscuse," or washer-woman's style, but really resembles the humps of a camel's back. Across the lowerhips, below this "pannier," a band extends. It will thus be seen that we have the most extraor dinary toilet known in the realms of fashion for the last two huhdred years! It may lie remembered as' a historic fact that a change of fashion changes the whole tone of a person's manner. The stately, patronizing — airs, assumed by our belles a a short time, when dressed in the ample doWager skirts then in vogue, would.hardly be becoming the wearer of the fashionable garb of the day. The fitness of things alone would prevent this. As a logical ge r quence of this, all our belles play the petite with a furore. When walking or standing;, instead of the stately step or the statuesque, they assume what is called the "Grecian bend," or the air . of diffidence and inquiry, with all the adjuncts. The Grecian bend is performed by pulling the lower hips up to a point even with the lower ribs, throwing the pit of the stomach back or in and the shoulders for Nard, the hands are ' held in front, pedant from the wrist, and intended to represent a spray, the gait is of a canter or tilter motion. It will be seen from the des cription of the dress that it is peculiarlY adapted to effectually allow of a full per formance of the "Grecian bend," and when the whole affair is carried out in the dance by a gay and luxuriant youth, with his hair parted in the middle, placing his right arm under the left ofthe lady, with digitalis extended, as in a spasm. resting between shoulder blade, while with the thumb and second finger he holds her wrist, thus leav= ing her hand to hang lifelessly pendant, we have an exhibition of snobbishness and cockneyism which must put nil sensible Americans to blush.Glor. N. Y. Tribuni r . Copperhead tulem The brutish, devilish spirit which pee prgc.eS the so called Democracy was fully manifested on the occasion of the passage of General Grant through Carlinville, the other evening. That party, under the auspices of that prince of low fellows, Bill O'Brien, had been holding a political meet.- in town during the day, and filled with bad whisky, when they heard that General Grant was upon the train, they started for the : depot, several hundred strong, and taking possession of the platform, and sur rounding the General's car,' they set upon him with the most unearthly yells and screetchings, insulting him and his family in the most dastardly and shameful manner. The fellow O'Brien, whose manners are as filthy as he is himself personally, was loudest and foremost in edging on the d:nnken mob. General Grant had raised the window of the car for the purpose of shaking hands with some friends whom he recognized, when one of the dirty hounds, more impudent than the rest, rushed to the window and shouted "Harrah for Seymour and Blair," violently striking . General Grant in the face with his hat. Mr. Itc; Connell, who was conversing withthe Gen eral at the time, resented the indignity by giving the fellow a blow on the side of the smeller, which sent a sprawling, and Lieut. McKee and others kicked him off the plat form... This, however, only more incensed the Copperhead. mob, and, though it was intended lay the decent citizens of the place to extend to the General who laid .sucesss fully led'our armies through .the• War some indication of 'their personal, not to say political, appreciation of his services, it was 'found utterly impossible to do so, and the train passed 0n.,-Springjisidßep, .10th. • • The President and Reconstruction.

In fact, by this act, the Preaident has , virtually. given the control of these States into the hands of Secretary: Schofield, who is a pronounced` supporter of the Con gresidonal reconstruction Operand of Grant and :Colfax. The letter was written by Sec retary Schofield, approved, by the President and forwarded through army heakuarters without Cabinet consultation on it. The few Coneressmen who' remain bore, with many prominent Radicals, agree that one of the most important results - of the premulga lion of this letter will be that' Congress'will not reassemble in September. The Demo. cratic friends of 'the Administration are very earnest in their denunciations of the letter, and publicly pronounce it a surrender to the Rioicals.

A NEW ENGLA.ND paper tells this story: "There is a man in Vermont who cannot speak to his father. Previous to his birth some difficulty arose between- his mother and father, and for a- considerable time she_ relbsed to speak with him. The difficulty was subsequently healed,the child was born, and in due time began to talk, but when sit ting with his father was invariably silent. It continued so until the child *as five years old, when the father, having e'xhausted his powers of persuasion, threatined it with punishment for- its stubbornness. When the punishment was inflicted, it elicited nothing but sighs and groani; which told • but too plainly that the little Sufferer could not speak. though he vainly enc eavored to do so. All who were prcsent united in the opinion that it was impossible for the child to speak to -Its father. Time proved this opinion to be correct. At a mature age his efforts to converse with lila parent could only produce -the most bitter sighs and groans." . .
