In a law suit. A case in point occurred
yesterday. A man entered one of our
Fifth avenue stores and made a trifling
purchase. In payment for which he al
leges he presented a two dollar' bill ex
pecting to receive one dollar and thirty
cents change, seventy cents being the
price of the article bought. Instead of
receiving that amount the olerk handed
him thirty cents,'cansing au argument
to. ensue in regard to the denomination
o f th'9 hill presented, the customer claim
ing it as two dollars, aid the clerk as
stoutly maintaining thatit was but one.
Of course as it had been thrown into the
drawer along with others,• the question
could not be positively decided either
way. The customer, thoroughly heated
by the discussion), finally left the store
in high dudgeon, marched straight to au
up town Alderman's office, and made
information against the clerk for
larceny us bailee, upon wilt& a

A.runaway accident, thrilling in its ]
nature and very serious in its come-
1
quences,,occurred i $ Allegheny about
`nine o'clock Tuesday evening, the vie-
titns - being Mr. Johii Davidson, who re- 1
sides on Washington, street, Third ward,
Allegheny, and several inmates of his
liousehold.' It seem T that Mr. Davidson
had been making a visit to his father-in
law, Mi. John Burges, residing just out
side the city limits, on the Perrysville
i s
plank road, and star ed homeward in a
baroucha, shortly after eight o'clock, ac-
companied by his wife, child and two
sisters. ,
In order to shorten the distance the
old Franklin road Was taken and while
the party were sloWly descending the
hill the "backing strap" of the 'harness
gave wav, thus allowing the vehicle to
strike the horse. The aimal immedi
atelyll became unnianageab e an started
off on a gallop down the I ill. s soon
as the horse started Miss Jane D vidson,
-who was seated in the front pa ;of the
baronet* beside her brother, juin . eel out,
but in *ping so her ead came i contact
2
with a I pile of s ones at t. e road
side, rendering her insensible and
inflicting injuries\ Which, it is feared,
will prove fatal. The affrighte , animal
continued on his course until the toll
gate at the foot of the decli ,ty was
reached,' when the, vehicle str ,ck the
gate post and was !literally sh vered to
pieces, the remaining &caper, a being
pitched out with violence to the ground.
Miraculously as iCFieemed, Mrs David
son, the babe and Miss Bessie Davidson
escaped with a few very slight bruises,
but Mr. Davidson as quite soy:rely in
jured, having onel arm broke, in two
places and being painfully bruised
about the head titid on differ , 1 t parts
of the body. The noise cde , ted by
the• vehicle in s.riking the g. to post
attracted the attention of perso is living
in the vicinity, whViiined out • nd ren
dered every pos l i le assistance to the
sufferers. Mr. D v,idson was tti en into
the house of AI ..I Richard McCaffrey,
1
near by, to which in a short time after,
Miss Jane Davids n was brought, iu an
insensible coedi t o n and bleeding pro
fusely. By this tMe Drs. Hamilton and
Trevor, who h ;been summoned, ar
rived, and upon ( lxaminatlon discovered
that Miss Davids nfs jaw-bone had been
broken in three places and the bridge of
her nose crushed in. There wore also
several severe gashes in her head. The
wounds of the inj tred parties received
the proper mcd cal attention, after
which they were conveyed to their
resideices, on Washington street.
The physicians in a ttendance; have but
slight hopes of tle recovery of Miss
Davidson. We lea nod last night that
she had been gettli g worse during the
day, - was unable to;peak, and seemed to
be su ff ering intone pain. Mr. David.
son's condition 'exhibited favorable
symptoms, and with care he will recover,
there being nothini of his injuries but
the broken arm, w ich is serious.
The escape of the party from a terrible
death seems like a intracle.

amounting to over two hundred dollars,
for which the defendant either paid for
or became responsible, agreeing with the
"girls" to receive his pay in installments

The thoroughfare lin this locality has

1869.
OPERA HOUSE. -L-Tile Opera House was
last evening filled with an unusually
large audience. The Letlingwells, whose
burlesque entertainments, since their
engagement in this city, have created
such a sensation, appeared in "Frau
Diavoli" and "Medea." The Leffiug
well as "Beppu the Ferocious," is unap
proachable. To-night, we will have a
repetition of "Cinderella" with Letling
well as the "Gushing .Clonnda." -
Monday night the Worrell Sisters,
whose wonderful versatility of talent, in
connectien with the rarest and most at
tractive manner have placed them at the
head of their profession, will appear,
when. the public may expect a rich feast
of burlesque.
Prryeituncin TtiEAnin—ln addition
to thu.excellent varieties company now
occupying the boards at the Pittsbnrgh
Theatre, Mlle Cotellior and her brother,
the most wonderful and fearless perform
ers on the hying trapeze in this country,
nightly appear in their exhibitions of
strength and daring. Tneir feats are
really wonderfnl, and elicit the greatest
admiration from the audience. A new
bill will be presented to-night. '
ADIERICAN THEATRE.—The amuse
ment loving portion of our community,
we are pleased to see, are evincing their
appreciation of Mr. W. C. Smythe's
management of the American Theatre,
formerly,Trimble's Varieties, -by liber
ally patronizing the establishment. Mr.
S. has been eminently successful in the
selection of his company, and his enter
tainments are spicy in the extreme, and
are composed of something new and at
tractive throughout, so that 'those In
search of fun cannot fail to find It if they
go to Smythe's Theatre.
TRINITY Cantle's FESTIVAL.—The an
nual Missionary Festival now being held
in the Sunday School room connected
with Trinity Church, Sixth avenue, is
an attractive place to spend an hour or
two, and at the Mane time aid in the ad
vancement of a charitable object. Some
of the articles of fancy needle work for
sale are curiosities, in their way, while
all are more or less useful as well as or
namental. Refreshments can be obtain
ed at anytime, and noon luncheon and
supper is served each day. As this is
the last day of its continuance we hone to
see the entertainment well attended.
CIIARITY FAIR.—The attendance at the
fair last - night was much larger than that
of the previous evening. The voting for
the Alderman's chair at the Charity Club
table was quite spirited, Alderman But
ler leading slightly. The departments
are all full and comptete, and the work
of ornamentation has been finished. The
fair room in itself is worthy aNisit, as it is
a perfect Garden of Eden.
111ussunt.---The educated pig continues
to entertain visitors to Burnell's Museum
by exhibitions of his wonderful attain
ments, and astonishes, all who witness
him by the amount of knowledge he ap
pears to possess. There are numerous
other attractions at the Museum, all of
'blab will prove interesting to the visi
tor.
Tux MAssPikan FAIR is being well
patronized. Trains on- the Panhandle
route run to suit visitors. The attractions
are many and the object good.
The Proposed icew Offices.
A correspondent of the Chronicle makes
a few suggestions relative to the location ,
of the now county offices for the Redord
er, Register, its, which we think worthy
of attention. He says :
Ids opinion is that the improve ant is
necessary, and the only question is 6kde
cid° how to do it. I would suggest that
the building be a three story, runnid
arailel,with Fifth avenue, and the
ground floor offices on a level with the
pavement of the street. The second story
would then be on a level with the differ
ent courts of law, and would be easy of
access for the lawyers practising therein,
and would be very suitable•for a Law
Library. The third story would be then
well adapted for the Supreme Court
Room, and would be only one flight of
stairs from the Court House floor. The
offices would be easy of access to the pub
lic, and could be ooaneoted with the pres-
ant fire proof offices by stairs from the
rear, and a bridge from the Supreme
Court room, to connect'tvith the rotunda.
This plan would improve the appearance
of Fifth avenue. Dispensing with that
blank wall, it would of,struct the view of
the cell windows, and be a great cony&
nience to the aged who have businesS
With county offices, and would complete
the business chain of buildings between
Grant strbet and the extension.
The eitentive and well managed steam
cracker bakery of Mr. S. S. Marvin, No.
91 Liberty, street, has succeeded in triO
nonolizing a vast share of trade which
daily grim larger. The utmost care . has
ever been taken toinstain, in the quality
of crackers supplied dealers and consum
ers, the high reputation which the baker
enjoys, and it is conceded on all sides that
no better articles in the line are manu
factured in 'the country than those of
this Pittsburgh house. The very purest
and best of materials are used, and much
regard is paid to cleanliness, the various
departments of the bakery being models
of neatness; The house manufactures
all kinds of orackers, spices, jumbles,
snaps, &c., and sells either wholesale or
retail at Very reasonable prices. Those
of our readers Who have not yet tried

tablishment with a visit, and satisfy
themselves of its superior claittis for pat
ronage.
