Burglaries in Birmingham.
A se ries of burglaries Were-perpetrated
Birmingha Thursday night, about
the hour Of tw lve o'clock by a gang of
thieves, who ap eared to have hada parti-
ally for boots, oes and hams, but who
did not allow an thing of value to pass with
out a notice. he burgulars entered the
shoe store ,of cob • Voelker, corner of
Carson and Denman streets, from which
they carried off five cases of shoes
.several pairs of men's custom made boots,
and a number of pairs of, boy's boots, the
wholeof which are estimated to be worth
about *5OO. Mr. Voelker also lost , a silver
watch of Bartlett's manufacture. No. 65,829,
worth forty dollars. The saddle establish
ment of John Schultz, ,on Carson street,
near Denman, was also entered, and a set
of double harness and the horse blankets,
valued at siventy-five dollars, taken out.
Mr. Fred. Schuman's - shoe shop was also
broken open and eight pairs of men's cus
tomer made books, valued at ninety dollars,
were taken. It is , quite probable, from the
amount of goods taken, that there were
several hands_ engaged in the transaction.
An entrance to all the houses was_ effected
by use of "outsiders" or nippers, with
which the keys were turned and the doors
unlocked. The establisnments entered are
all connected with dwelling houses in
which the proprietors were sleeping, but
so quietly did the thieves conduct their
'operations, that nothing was known of the
affair until yesterday morning. There is
no olue.as to the guilty parties. •
The Bevies -Hemmings Case.
The; Bevins-Hemtnings case, which has
for a/mreek past occupied the attention of
the authorities at the Mayor's office, to the
exclusion of almost everything else, as will
be seen by the Court reports this morning,
is drawing tott close. Hemmings having,
as previously reported, been arrested oil a
requisition front Governor Fenton, was
brought before the Court on a writ of ha
beas corpus, and was remanded by the
Court to the custody of. the 'officer from
New York, who placed him in the lock-up,
intending to start for New York •at two
o'clock this morning. Bovine was arrested
on a warrant issued by Alderixran Donald
son, on , oath of Hemmings, for surety of
the peace, and the' Mayor' became responsi
ble for his appearance at Court. The alias
capias in the case for damages, in which
Miss Sate Fisher is plaintiff, was also
served upon him, and Mayor Blackmore
signed the bond for his appearance. The
surety of the peace case against Magle was
postponed, at the instance of the prosecu
tion until thib morning at ten o'clock, when
it will be disposed of by Judge Mellon.
Mr. Hemminp appears bit little con
cerned about the matter, and alleges that
he will have no difficulty , in establishing
his innocence of the charge preferred
ainst him.
_ .o Premising 'Youths.
A couple f youths between the .ages of
sixteen and eighteen years, perambulated
the streets in thE N lurth Ward, Allegheny,
yesterday afternoo l,each with a rooster in
his arm which had been taught to "pitch I
into" any of its unfortunf, - brethren whom
it might meet in the way. this means
lit yrNetr‘No
several very - interesting fowl hts had
taken place much to the deligh f the
crowds who were on hand at each eneoin
ter to witness the refining and elevating
1 performance. Their movements at length,
were noticed by one of the. police, who
seemed to take a somewhat ,ditferent view
of the affair, and promptly arrested the
owners or the belligerent fowls. When
brought before Mayor Drum two large
steel-- "gaffs," each about : three inches
in length, were taken from them. The
youths, who gave tneir names as Cas
per Wyman and Wm. Gleiss, were placed
in the lock-up and will have a hearing this
morning, on .a charge of violating a city or
dinance, which forbids any amusement of
the kind being carried on within city limits.

rtrrsßuitou GAZETTE.. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1868:
ACADEMY OF Mx:rm .—The Academy of
.
Music, last night, was thronged - to its
utmost capacity on the Occasion of the
grand concert of Ole Bull, the world
known, famous violinist. The audi
ence was such as can only be drawn togeth
er on speciaroccasions, when the attraction
presented is of no ordinary or everyday
character. We believe it was some twenty
one years before that the ( great Norwegian
musician bad made his first bow to the
Pittsburgh public, and there were hun
dreds,.....
of persons present, in whose ears ,
still rang the wonderful melody produced
on that occasion, and as he made his ap
pearance on the stage it appeared to them
that but a night, instead of two decades of
years, had passed away since they were
first made captive by his genius. Ole Bull
has'not changed much' in appearance. His
commanding frame, classical cut features,
eharp. fire enlitting eye, graceful move
ment and stage composure ell remain as in
days of yore, and his heaven inspired gen
ius has lost none of its lustre and brillian
cy. The, great interpreter of music, the
pre-eininent performer on the violin, who,
long since, won his way into the ranks std
Wok hardly second''place with Tarti i,
Rode, Kreutzer, Spohr, Vieuxtemps and
Paganini is now in his 58th year, and yet
capable of pouring his whole soul forth in
the congenial task of drawing the purest
of fine music from an unpretentious instru
ment so closely allied to his life and his
tory.
The concert opened with an exquisitely,
delicate fantasia on the piano, Tx,Tratnata,
by Mr. Egbert Lansing, itscomposer. The
selection was not a judicious one for SO
large a hall as the Acadenhy, butwould
have been more appreciated in the parlor
or drawing room. The melodious soft pas
sages, requiring-the tenderest manipulation
of the keyS, fell with hardly any effect on,
the audience, a loss of appreciation by no
means regained in the spirited rendition of
the very few brilliant bars which here and
there mark the composition.
The Romanza, a sweet composition of
Tito Mattel, was rendered with no remark
able power by Mr. Gustavus Hall, a bari
tone of some national eminence. It was
devoid of any perceptible mark of beauty
and coldly fell upon the audience. Had
not Mr. Hall acquitted himself in a noble
manner in the subsequent rendition of the,
lively aria, ROSSIIIVR "Largo 01, factotum,"
he would have left no impress of his superior
abilities as a vocalist on his Pittsburgh audi
ence.
The appearance of Ole Bull was the sig- ,
nal for wild applause and the enthusiastic
welcome he received must have made the
heart of the master violinist of the age
throb faster, for there was no mistaking
the depth of the appreciation in, which
he has held. - Scarce bad be drawn his bow
across the strings of his violin till the most
perfect silence reigned, his audience being
held spell bound at his feet and were car
ried with him to the end. As the last sweet
note ceased to ripple and the melody died
away, there burst forth•a storm of enthu
siastic applause which made the house
shake to its foundation. The encore
was rapturous and Ole Bull was forc
ed to acknowledge the compliment by
again coming before the audience. His
second effort was "Home, Sweet Home"
and the same deep, abiding impression was
left on those upon whose , ears it fell, as
would remain with the mortal on whose
ears 'might fall the soft, sweet sounds of
celestial melody, breaking through the
portals of - heaven and stealing their way
to earth. None living can criticise the in
terpretations of Ole Bull. He is the stand
ard of perfection whereby all 'violinists of
the world are to • be measured, and a phe
nomenon of musical inspiration worthy of
recognition among the limited few who
have 'beenbpecially endowed with a high
order of, talent b;„- an Omnipotent Being,
perhaps to elevate mankind and teach how
near nosy= man's soul can dwell.
Miss Barton, a soprano of no ordinary
merit, and yet not worthy a place in the
-highest walks of song, delighted the audi
ence in several vocal offerings, conspicu
ous among which were "Coming Through
the Rye,' and the huruo ro us son "I wrote
him a Letter." She is a sweet Sin g
ger with
a full round voice finely cultivated and
capable of wide rjnge. The most attrac
tive feature of her singing is articulation,
every word being close cut, sharp, clear
and intelligible. A Splendid duet, "La el
darern," Mozart, WM rendered with fine ef
fect by Miss Balton and Nil.. Hall, 'locomen
nied on the piano in tin excellent man
ner by Mr. Lansing—who, we might here
say, acquitted himself splendidly through
out the programme, and left a fine impres
sion on his critical audience—concluded
the programme. and all present departed
highly delighted with the musical feast
afforded. •
Toe performers did not appear in full
dress on the stage, as they lost nearly
every article of their-wardrobe in the re
cent terrible disaster on the Ohio river,
'they being passengers on the ill-fated
steamboat America. To-night the last con
cert a( Ole Bull will be held at the Acad
emy with an entire change oft programme,
and we hOks, that none of our readers will
fail to embrie the opp irtunity of seeing
c \tN
and hearing he eminent quartette of

'First Class' Jewel6 - --Where it is Mann-.
factured and Sold.
For many years the high reputation of
Mr. C. Terheyden as a practical and finish
ed Working jeweler and gold and silver
smith has been acknowledged and abstain
ed. He has had almost ,the exclusive pat
ronage of the leading jewelry houses of the
city, they accepting the orders and he
manufacturing the articles. Many jewelers
have gained much local reputation and
credit for the excellence of their work which
really should have been awarded to Mr.
Terheyden,
whose skill and mechanical
ability had contrbuted towards the super
iority of the manufactures. From year to
year during the past seventeen, the busi
ness of Mr. T. grew larger and larger until
to-day it has assumed such proportions as
to rank high among the leading jew
elry manufactures of the State, and
affords employment to a large force of
skilled and thoroughly finished artists.
The public were not long in discovering
that they could have any article of jew
elry manufactured in the prettiest and
Most fashionable styles at this establish
ment, and unsolicited a vast patronage
was directed towards Mr. Terheyden's.
This necessitated the starting of a jewelry,
store in connection with the workshop,
and an elegant and first class one has been
put in operation at 130 Smithfield street.
The stock on hand is large and inviting,
containing nothing but the very best qual
ity of jewelry manufactured out of the
purest of gold and silver. The workshops
are supplied with all the delicate and im
proved model machinery for manufacturing
purposes and thousands of dollars worth of
coin pieces, fresh from the. mint, are
Monthly converted into rings, chains Arid
the multitudes of articles which adorii`the
pertion. Preciouri atones are set in most
excellent manner, an important feature, as
those desiring to entrust valuable gems
can place implicit confidence in Mr. Ter
heyden'a integrity. In the jewelry store
will be found a very elegant stock of gold
and silver watches for ladies and gents, all
of very best quality; engagement rings
home-made out of gold coin; atone set
rings, pearl sets, garnet sets, diamond sets
and everything to the line of fine jewelry:,
`,Mr. Terheyden keeps likewise, a judicious
'Assortment of silver and silver plated
wares, parlor and counting room
clocks, &c., &c., all of which, together
with the watches and jewelry, are
offered at the very lowest of reasonable
rates. Mr. J. J. 13enitz, so well known and
respected in musical circles, will be found
in the store to wait upon patrons.
Altogether this h ome manufacturing jew
elry house #s worthy the largest share of
patronage, and readers having any repair
ing work to bd done, any desired Mile of
jewelry to be made to order, or desiring to
purchase anything in the way of gold and
silver ware, Pine watches, clocks, &c.,should
call at 130 Smithfield street. We commend
Mr. Terheyden as a pain s-taking, :worthy
and fair dealing gentleman, in every way
worthy the confidence Ind patronage of the
community.

The establishment of a queensware man
ufactory in this city by Messrs. S. M. Kier
dr Co., at 363 Liberty street, was an enter
prise which. - was by many presumed to be
a hazardous undertaking, but time has
proved the wisdom of the firm. The qual
ity of the ware manufactured is unsurpass
ed by any in the country, and it is coming
Into general use. In addition to the excel
lent quality of the ware there is another
feature which recommends it to purchasers,
and tat is its cheapness. They can menu
'facturhe ware cheaper than it can be made
In the east, and purchasers therefore wive
at -least the freight on It from the eastern
markets.
