He had bet ter retire from the rost N rum, and thus please one Democratic cotemporary. The Chronide makes a great blunder in stating that the net proceeds of the Drum mer Boy of Shiloh entertainments, recently held in this city, amounted to $9,000. That sum might have been the aggregate pro ceeds, but the profits will hardly reach one third that sum, as the expenses attending the production of the drauta were unusually Annual Election.—The Young Men's Mercantile and .Is.lechanics Institute, hold .1 their annual election for officers and direc tors to serve for the ensuing year.

We commend it to the attention of Sabbath 5012001 teachers and to all parents as worthy of encouragement. , .

Oircumsta next leoture of the course under the auspices of the Young , Men's Mercantile Library Association will. be be delivered to-morrow evening in the Academy of Music, by Johu B. Gough. The distinguished lecturer has chosen "Cir cumstances as the subject of his dis course. The name of Gough is a suffi cient gutuantee of a crowded house, out when it is accompanied with the fact of an entirely new lecture, which is said to be one of his best productions, we look for an audience beyond the utmost capacities of the building. . A Smasber.—John Oliver drank a little NI too much—well, not water—on Saturday night, which caused him to 'be very bois. terone. He entered one of the Manchester street tArs and while riding up Federal street, near the corner of Ohio, smashed one of the windows with his fist. The con ductor called a. policeman who happened to be in the vicinity, and John was , about being. arrested, when he sobered up and • paid for the damage done. The policeman was leaving when he was assailed bya tor rent of oaths, and denunciations by John, which caused him to return and attempt to arrest the offender. in the scuffle which ensued, John smashed half a dozen dows more, but he was finally subdued and loOiced up. Yesterday ;morning Mayor Drum fined him $25 for disorderly conduct, _ . which he was unable to pay. He is now in Jail. Fatal Accident. A dispatch from Sarrisbnrg, dated Fri day, says : A sad accident occurred here this morning, by which an eatimable yen of Crawford county •was killed. Mr. Alvin Congdon, of Evansbarg, Crawford county, ten miles fro Meadville, read here this morning at five o'clock,. boun his ache d. for Vineland, New Jersey. to recruit health, which had been bad for some months. Accompanying him was Mrs. M. E. Sherman, a sister of Accompanying him two children, bound for Middletowrs. Sherman was obliged to stop here n, for M the seven o'clock train, and Mr. Congdon left the cars to conduct her to , a hotel, after which haValked to the Reading depot, op. • posite t he Pennsylvania Ce ntformtral,,and in st the ping off -, the passenger pla dark, On his return to the train, was run over hi by a shifting engine and cuein twain. $e was a married man , ghly respect 'ed in neighborhood, and leaves several children. • Kleptomania. .. Another evidence of the existence in our midst of persons afflicted with this disease, ,or,passion for crime, whichever it may be called, developed itself on Friday after ,- noon last. A respectably dressed and preposserising young woman entered the store of Market street dry goods mer chant, and asked to be shown some hand kerchiefs, laces and other articles of a slat liar character. While she was engaged in examining those which were laid on the counter, the watchful salesman noticed her secreting a portion in the muff which she carried. When she had concluded her purchases, and be was about returning the ssil6 to the cashier, he quietly picked - up the muff and carried it along. An exam ation of it at the desk revealed the fact that goods to the amount of twenty-six dollars had been stolen. The amount:was .added to the bill for berpurchases. and • presented for payment. She paid the -whole bill, and was then, through the in tercession of a /frlend, allowed to depart. It seems that she had been a frequent visi tor at the store, and aroused suspicions of her honesty several times, managing, h Sh ow- eyer. previously, to escape detection. e at last met with one- salesman who was too • Agri) to be victimized.

An adjourned meeting of property-hold- ere in the rural district of Allegheny City, was held Saturday evening, January ninth, in Ridgewood School House, to heax the report of the Committee appointed at a pre vious meeting to confer with the sewerage commission of the City Councils in relation to ',the sewerage asses sments. Mr. Win. Marshall presided, ' and Mr. Thos. W. Pratt officiated as Secretary. The Committee reported that they had, according to instructions, conferred with the Commission, the members of which had expressed themselves very freely in regard to the injustice of the law, and as an evidence of their willingness to aid in getting it changed so as to make the bur den fall more equally upon all, had as sured thememmihat the collection of the, tax' uld beefr the present, sus pended, in order that time might be given to mature some-plan for relief. The report further ,stated that the Com-, mittee had heard but one expression from all the members ,of Council with whom they had 'conferred, and that was in con demnation of the assessments as unequal and unjust. The report was received and the Com mittee continued. ' On motion, a committee of six was ap pointed to obtain the signatures of proper ty holders to a petition, to be presented to Councils, setting forth the willingness of the signers to pay , a just share of all taxes in proportion to the valuation of property,, but praying' or a relief from the onerous and unequal tax which had been assessed , for sewerage purposes. Messrs. William Marshall, Jas. Fielding, T.' W. Pratt, Robert Sloan, Jas. Steadeford and 'Robert Murphy was appointed said .committi e. It was remarked property holder in the meeting that a clo se calculation -of the value of property in the rural districts and some valuable city property, had developed the fact that the rural districts were taxed in proportion to value, four hundred times greater than the city. Some time was spent in remarks on the subject by persons interested, after which the meeting adjourned to convene again at the call of. the Chairman. A-Common Scold. Michael Sweeny, a taverni.keeper =Gib bon street, in the Sixth ward, made informa tion before the Mayor a few days since against Mrs. Elizabeth'Carrel, allegingthat she was a "common scold." This is a term applied by the common law to women, who from a propensity and disposition to quarrel with and scold their neighbors and families become a nuisance in the neigh borhood in which they resided, and was punishable - fine and imprisonment. The offence has never been embodied in our criminal code on account of the gal andt perhaps, of those who-revised it, out of the respect they bad for Ameri can women, yet, notwithstanding its omis sion from the "catalogue of offences ;'m the courts have decided it to be ,an indictable offence in this State, as will be seen by ref fbrence to the case of the . Commonwealth vs. Mole, reported in Second mi ht.estimo in this case it appears from S the t ny that there is some grounds for complaint on the part of the prosecutor, and if the conduct of the defendant at the' Mayor's office is any evidences the charge is well founded. She was held to bail for her ap pearance at newt. • •-• p r - • • • ,7 it "a r •—• Sigj RIG It AI - iTlNltkila '1869 MysteriousDisappearaile.eg.....out play sus. .. petted idrM " John a farmer, residing at to,wship, in this d.i ounty, came. to the e city on n Friday of last rooee, Moritz week with a two-horse wagon and stopping at Ferguson's Hotel, corner of Fourth ave nue and Ferry street, had his horses put in the' stable and between three and four o'clock left the hotel, stating he had some business to transact in the city and would return in time for supper. He did not re turn at the time stated, however, but his absence created no surprise, as it thought he had been detained by busi nss, but on the next morning, be having not yet returned, Mr. Fur guson became uneasy and instituted search for him, which proved fruitless. As it was his intention when leaving home to return 'on Saturday morning, and falling to do so, -his friendsbecame alarmed and yesterday morning came to the city in search of him, but as yet have found no trace of hina what ever after he left the hotel on Friday after noon. It appears trom the statement of his friendi that he bad in his possession, when he left home, between three and four hun dred dollars in money. He is said to be a I sober, industrious man, and his mysterious disappearance, connection with the fact of having a con iderable Sum of money in his possession, ads WS friends to suppose i that he has bee foully dealt with. The affair is rtainlya very Mysterious one, and shoo be ! thoroughly investiga ted. Several ' cases Of a similar nature hav ing occurred dn the eity ,within the 'past year, and no explanation of the , mys tery in either of r them having been arrived at, the alarm and uneasiness , of the friends of the missing man are very naturally in creased, and the authorities, for.the same ,reasons, should leave nothing' undone to solve the mystery. The circumstances of the case have been fully detailed to the police, and they should be instructed to "work up the case" thor oughly. I If the man has been AVspirited" away or foully dealt with in any manner, the fact can and should be ascertained. He having left the hotel in daylight with the intention of returning before dark, would lead to the conclusion, that if there was foul play it bad taken place in daylight, and we certainly have detectives on the force who, with such information as can be obtained from Mr. Morits's friends, trace the man to where the foul play occurred. Apprehentions Realized. It will be remembered by our readers that a short.time ago a delegation of resi dents, from Spring Garden Run called upon Mayor Drum and entered complaint against the proprietors of a hair dying es tablishment in that locality for maintain ing-a nuisance. They alleged that aside from the exceedingly disagreeable odors emanating from the place take fire, they..were in great fear that it would in conse cluence of the manner in which the heating apparatus in the interior was arranged, and the combustible nature of the material with " which the building was : filled. It seems that the comlainants had :good reasons for their a p p rehensions, which were realized on Friday evening last. About eight o'clock the building was discovered to be on fire, and before the steamers arrivedit was completely envel oped in flames and more than half con sumed. The firemen wisely abandoned it and turned their attention to saving the property on either side, which they suc ceeded in doing, although the hair estab lishment was completely destroyed with all its contents. It was of the "Iron clad" class and of little value, although it contained at the time considerable material. We did not learn the lossor whether there was any insurance upon it. It belonged to the Illi nois Hide and Leather Company, and was in charge of tdr. Thomas Meanor,the agent. The origin of the fire has not been , ascer tained. • -,....----- A Valuable Reference.

Few medicinal preparations have made more rapid inroad into the confidence of large masses of the intelligent peop le of our country than the sterling remedies bearing the eminent name of Dr. Boss, of New York. His "Rheumatic Remedy," for rheumatism, "Crimea Water," for ca tarrh and, diseases of the head, "Tar Com pound" for the throat and lungs, and "Dys pepsia Cure," are preparations compounded on the strictest principles of pharmacology and have, through their own efficacy and merit, gained widespread fame. They were originally used as private remedies pre scribed by the skilful practitioner and in ventor, but , meeting with such remarkable success in every case; there was created a large demand for the ,medicines, and Dr. Ross has wisely chosen to establish a na tional agency in Pittsburgh for their sale, selecting Messrs. Shook & White, eminent ly worthy and responstble gentlemen, as his sole agents. This firm have opened commodious quarters at No. 28 St. Clair street, where the standard proparatious will be sold and agencies appointed and supplied. The diseaged can call and ob tain a remedy at trifling cost at this [depot, which will certainly prove worthy of their confidence, and thus. save save _the physician's fee. We fool that when the Malta of Dr. Boss' remedies are knOwn they will be used to the exclusion of most of: those new enjoying public popularity. ' If-this Should Meet the Fire Of persons afflicted with any of the follow ing -diseases, by calling at the medicine agency of Dr. Ross, No. 28 Sixth (late St. Clair) street, will be assured of speedy re lions lief an are d pe compounded rmanent cure. from These prenala par re ceipts of Dr. Ross, and have been used by him with great success. Dr. Ross' Rheu matic Remedy has-never failed to cure the worst cases in a short time. Dr. Ross' Dys peptic cure, aged persons and those of weak constitutions, will lind this remedy of•grear benefit. Dr. Ross Tar Compound, for coughs, colds and diseases of the hangs, has no equal. Dr.Ross' Crimea Water is the best remedy for catarrh known. A cure warranted in every case. Disappointed.

They were doomed to disappointment , however, as it was ascertained that the sparks came from a small chimney Just behind the parapet wall and concealed from view by it.

Commanders of some of the flying col umns of the Spanish troops report the rev olution is gradually decreasing, but well informed Cubans assert the contrary and report that the, revolutionary forces are constantly receiving accessions from within and without the island. The proclamation of liberty of the press has gone into full effect. Leaders of the Cuban party declare they have the greatest confidence in Gen.
