8. CITY AND - SUBURBAN. Large Sleds took the place of . ears °tithe Itineraville Passenger Railway yesterday. Allegheny Councils .— The Allegheny Omweils will hold a regular meeting to t morrow evening. The 4.oldest inhabitant" thinks the fall of snow yesterday morning was one of the heaviest within his recollection. The Ordinance in relation to shoveling Ike snow from sidewalks was very gener ally observed In both cities yesterday. The BM Posters' War.—John M'Couv gey and James Thackeray are rival bill posters, and like rivals in any other iniT portant matter, they don't seem to get along pleasantly with each other. We menttoned . yesterday that Thackeray had made inftirmation before the-Mayor against I.l'emivrey for malicious mischief, the of fence consisting in mating bills on boards which, Thickeray had. placed at various corners throughout the city for his own es pecial benefit. Yesterday afternoon, Mc- C'ouvrey made' information against his 'rival before Alderman - Donaldson fovea , . Iseult and,battery. The' accused was arres ted and held for a hearing this afternoon. A Popular Grocery store. • There are few wholesale and, retail`gro cery, . establishmentaln this city more wor thy the patronage of the public than the extensive and well known . :house.of L. J. Blanchard, NO. 396 Penn street, v,-hichlias long and sticcessfully monopolized a full share.. of trade. Being thoroughly . ac quainted with every detail connected with the business and devoting careful personal attention to every department of the house, the prosperity of the proprietortan 'ac counted for readily. He keeps at all times a splendid stook of groceries and, produce, and his prices are found ranging among the lowest and most reasonable prevailing In the market.' , We commendldr. Blanch ard to our readers as a fair 'dealing and honorable business gentlenaan, in every way worthy the largest measure of confi dence and enStom. • Accident at the Rink. Yestez day morning about three o'clock, thaSuperbitendent of the Keystone Rink, Mr. Itrown who was sleeping in the build ing, was aroused by the sound of crashing glass-and timbers. Upon awakening he discovered that the skylight or ventilating portion of the roof had given way under the Wilt weight of now upon it: Visitors to the rink will remember that the central port or;comb of this roof had been raised several feer from the main room, to facili tate the lighting and ventilation of the in terim. This centre portion gave way, but fortunately nearly all the debris slid down the main roof, on, either aide, thus leaving the main roof uninjured. A force of work- men was engaged yesterday in clearing away the - rubbish previous to repairing the damage, which will be done as soon as possible. The Superintendent expects to have it in order again before the next ice forms. . • ; Ainfaulted., On Sunday night as Mr.' Thomas Smith was passing down Union street from the "Diamond he was imitated by four ' men; who knocked him down and beat him in a -terrible manner. A deep gash was in his head, .evidently with some blunt in strument, and MB clothing was torn almost from his body. The assailants, after beat ing thi-ir victim to their heart's content, left him lying on the pavement and de parted. Mr. Smith Managed sbenetinae:af ter to make his way home, where he has since been suffering from the injuries re ceived. The attack was so sudden that he failed to rev:guise any of his assailants, and it is therefore unite probable that they wilt never be known. It, will be remem- bered:that the assaulted party is one of the - ,Intienendent police who have been making raids on tke violaters of the Sunday liquor - law ilithivvicinity for sometime past. It is Ipossibrethis fact may furnish some clue to the attacking party, but as yet no devel opments have been made in the case. Railway Officials. At the recent meeting of the new Board ofl Directors of the Cleveland and Pitts- burgh Railroad, J. N. McCullough, Esq., ts , was re-elected President and William Ste w. -art, Esq., General - Superintendent and'Gen eral Freight Agent. It appears that no matter how mash - of the 4 ‘rina". element may enter into the composition of the Board, the -services of these= gentlemen cannot' be dispensed with. r- Chiefly: through their= managementthe road has attained its pres ent .prosperons condition. its exhibit - for the-past year will compare favorably with any, an the country. It:could 'not be other wise under the energetiaand able manage ment of Messrs. McCullough and Stewart. T. R. Myers, Etsq.y than whom no , one is entitled to higher - credit for able nituisge-' meat, and who - has , justly been styledin some ofour exchanges "one ofthe railroad princes,'" is stilt General Ticket Agent of this, as well as of the Pittabsugh. Fdrt Wayne and Chicago Railroad, a position which we _hope he will live long to • fill. 'lasing- to , the. onerous: duties,-of: • the position, J. ,-Kimball, Esq., - was installed, some time since, Assistant General Ticket Agent. Mr. Kimball came,. Quietly among us, if we remeniber aright, from some western road, and by his urban ity, devotion to business and the ability: with which he discharges the duties of bfa position,ls making hosts of friends. Re- is the right manin the right place. Both . the Pittsburgh 45t Cleveland, and Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne fit Chicago roads are officered by the choleast Men. Library I.4.etures. . John B. Gough, Esq.. lectured hut even . lug in the Academy altitude, under . the auspices of .the Young Men's Mercantile Library Association. His. subject was tiOircincitances," and was Muldled in a masterly manner. It was -certainly one of . the best lectures M. Gough has ever de livered in this city.. We think. every 'one left` the Academy list evening not only de - li ghted but edified. :Many a man,'es was clearly 'demonstrated:7M the lecture, has .* been either raised to distinetion or . sunk - - into obscurity by the merest circum stance. A . word or a look may make a man buoyant with hope or overwhehn him with dispair. One may reach the loftiest pinnacle of human ambition by a smooth,. even-and beaten walk. - Another, in differ -sant circumstances ' may have to fight his Ivey, in great adversity and in the midst of much opposition to the goal. Ale may_. stumble and stagger and blunder. Still, armed with , a heroic determination, he triumphs over every op posing circumstance. The speaker had a higher admiratien of the blunderer and the lighter, than of the man who walks easily to destinetion by a way so thor unghly hedged on both sides that it is al most impossible forldm to fail in reaching the summit ofwoOdly renown. Mr. Gough willlecture on Saturday and Monday evenings next. Of course the house will be - filled to overflowing on both occasions. 1 " The . Leetnre Committee are entitled to the highest credit for the excellent manner In which they manage their departnihnt. The gentlemen ~Who , collect the' tickets, and the ushers are also worthy of praise for their 'politeness and attention. We are ti ~ nder 'special obli ations to Mr. Earl S. Gardner for rewire conferred. Aninstitu H numbs a so many gentlem .

Below is the official result so far as ascertained, those marked with a star being the successful candidates.

OPERA HOUSE.—"Dora" was repeated at the Opera House last night to a very fair audience, considering the unfaiorable weather. It is a beautiful and Pleasing drama, and was rendered ht a highly Retie , factory manner. Mr. Couldoek's Farmer Allen is capital, and a Miss Couldook's "Dora" is excellent. Miss Dargon in the , role of Mary Allen is unquestionably good, and the same may be said 'of Messrs. Dond and Norton. The piece will be produced to-night for the last time, and we would ad- vise all those who have not seen It to avail themselves of the opportunity of doing so. TILEATRE.—The Gregory Troupe - c n tinue to draw large houses at the Old he atre, where they have been holding f rth for over a week.

Miss Clara Louisa Kellogg, the beautiful and accomplished American Prima Donna, whose concerts have been announced for that time, arrived in the city last evening with her troupe; consequently those hold ing tickets need have no fears of disap pointment. Miss Kellogg's high reputation as a vocalist, and the fact of her being an American lady, combined to make her the most popular singer on the American stage, for notwithstanding the American in clination to patronize foreigners, Nation al pride and: a just • appreciation of talent 'compels all lovers 9f art and reason to acknowledge true worth and excellence, even though it should be found in an American. Miss Kellogg, assisted by a number of artists scarcely less eminent in their profession than herself, will give two concerts at the Academy of Music to-night and to-morrow night. : The house will doubtless be crowded.

The prosecutor alleges that the defendants came into his saloon in an intoxicated condition and began to Balogh ,the furniture, windows. ikc.. of the estab lishment. They were finally- ejected, but not before oonsfderable damage ' had been done. John also made information, before the same magistrate, against the same defend ants, for assault and battery they. according to his statement, having attacked and beat him in an unmerciful manndr, just after they had been ejected from the saloon.

A most terrible railroad disaster occur red a few miles west of this city, at Cork's Run, on the Pan Hatidle Railroad, between three and four o'clock yesterday morning, by which three men were killed instantly and four were serious, some,- of them perhaps fatally, injured. • The mail train west, (No. 6,) consisting of two passenger and one sleeping car, which left the Union Depot at three o'clock yesterday morning, arrived at Cork's Run about half past three o'clock, and had crossed partly over the fill, which at that point is very heavy, when the track gave way and the sleeping car ;in which were seven passengers, was thrown from the track and precipitated over the embankment to the run below, a distance of sixty feet, almost perpendicular. The , car in its descent made several revolutions, and by'the time it reached the bottom was literally demolished. Fortunately, the coupling connecting the sleeping car with the coach in front of it, broke, when the former was thrown from the track, other wise the entire train might have been thrown over the embankment, the result of which would have been 'a much' greater de struction of human life. The names of the killed, so far as can be ascertained, are as. follows: John Alleni conductor of the sleeping car; Mr. C. McPherson. of Spring field, Ohio, and the third is supposed to be Rev. J. G. Archer, of Clearfield, Clearfield &nay, Pennsylvania. Mr. Henry C. Bar nett, from Springfield, Ohio, a brother-in-. law of Mr. McPherson, one of the killed, and Mr. John Rennike, a drover from ,Cynthiana, Ky., were among the injnred. I M.r. Barnett's injuries were .of a very Fre rrinus character and-at first his life was despaired of.. He was removed to the Con tinental Hotel, Mansfield, where he was at tended by Dr. McCook, and at last accounts he was recovering and will probably sur vive his injuries. , The' other passengers were not seriously injured and proceeded on their journey. • The bodies of Allen and. McPherson were discovered immediately after the dis aster and removed to. Mansfield, and the Coroner sent for, who repaired thither yes terday afternoon for the purpose of hold- Dag an Inc nest. Shortly before his arrival the thirdiady;supposed to be that of Rev. Mr. Archer, of Clearfield, was found.under the wreck in the run e _and was .brought by !the Coroner to the city. A jury- was em- Ipannelied and sworn, and after viewing the bodies adjourned to meet at the Coro ner's office Saturday, at ten o'clock, A. as., when the matter will be thoroughly inves tigated: After the accident tlie wreck took fire, but fortunately the fire was - extinguished every speedily., and the addition of the moat fearful of horrors on such occasions, was avoided. As soon as the news-of the accident reached Pittsburgh. Mr. J. B. Dorrington, the efficient General Ticket Agent of the company, went with sufficient force to the scene of the occurrence, and did every thing that could be done. On the side of the embankment, and among the debris, he found' several "sums of money; "some watches and one or two chains whieh be long to the - passengers. They:, will be re turned' to those proving ownership., ,Weather r Mussus. Bnrrints After, "giving genie items in my article on the weather, in the GAZETTE of the 23d of Depetnber, the fol. lowing appears: "This gradnallowering of the temperature in the fall to the middle of December has been generally a pre /tide to a cold, natural winter, and from the 'abundance of snow being fixed in " the north-east to the -west -we should infer it would be a steady cold. But the indica tions of the present (lunar) month point to moderate weaher. Indications from December 13th to January 12th point to eighteen cloudy and variable, eleven snow and rain, and eleven sunshine days, attnos phere inn moderatelY" cold, pleasant win ter month, and but a Moderate amount of snow. '..These; indications are:: ecnitrarf- to our- expectations; but it - is presumed after the middle Of January the • winterwill be severe and prolonged, as there is a large amount of snow lying', north, and a mild, soft winter could not be expected." As it may be fresh in the memories of yonr readers. it may be found the indications have so far proved,edrrect; and; froth pres ent prospects, may eventuate correct as regards the future._ We will. venture to Rive the future, from former experience: To-morow (Wednesday) morning cold, thermometer 28 degrees; next.day, (Thurs day) colder, 20 to 25 degrees; next -morn ing, or the next, "(Saturday) 10" to 15 de grees, with a heavy white frost; within forty-eighty hours after, rain or snow, or snow or rain, coming freely. 'closing the storm with - snow, like last night; freezing, and that secures the wlnter,lunless a Feb ruary ground thaw ensues, which prepares for a third edition of winter.
