A Vagrant.—Geo. Couch, a well known
vagrant, has been sojourning in the
pleasant little borough of Minyale for a
number of days past, somewhat to the
annoyance of residents there, one of
whom, Mr. John Emmet, made informa
tion, before'r 'Burgess Williams against
him for vagrancy, yesterday, upon which
he was committed to the county jail for
thirty days.
Fierce Threats.—Chas. B. Stein made
information before Alderman McMasters
yesterday, against Julius Dougherty, an
independent policeman, for surety of the
peace. Stein alleges that , Dougherty
forced his way into his house on Thurs
day evening, and threatened the entire
family with destruction, because they
interfered to prevent him from taking
possession and doing as he pleased abo .
the premises.- A warrant was issued.
, mateur Concert.—There has been this
season such a dearth of home concerts,
that we welcome with great pleasure the
announcement of the musical soiree to
be given next Friday at the Academy of
Music, under the direction of Mr. Tete
doux. The Professor offers us an unus
ual array of talent. With the memory /
arill fresh of his many successes, and a
glance at the list of his assistants, we
can safely say that the patrons of art in
our community have in store a most de
lightful entertainment.
The Literary Exhibition given last
evening in the Collev. Hall of the West
ern tluiversity, by the students of the.
Preparatory Department, was well at
tended, and altogether was highly cred-
itable to the performers and the institu
tion. The exercises consisted of recita
tions in prose and poetry, and each of the
_ declaimers displayed admirable training
and well developed powers Of elocution.
The Mechanks Silver Cornet Band, of
Birmingham, was present and enliVened
the occasion with excellent musical in
terpretations.
Blake's Pew Hat fiack.—We are glad
to learn that the trustees of some congre
gregations in the neighborhood are sup
plying theik church edifices throughout
with these useful and necessary append.
ages. This is the_proper way of adopt
ing the Article. When the supply of
such furnitnreto the pews of a church,
is left to the members individually, the
result will be an imperfect and scanty
supply, arranged irregalarly, and there
fore presenting an unseemly appearance.
No want of uniformity should disfigure
a house of worship.
Alleged Aggravated Assault.
Phillip Kolcuff was brought before Al

two charges of: aggravated assault and
_ battery, preferred against him by Chas.

- to the famous Ben *nghoff robbery, was
b_brlght to a,close in thriVenango county
court, resulting in the acquittal of the
former and conviction. of the latter. It
1
will be remembered that several bun
, dred rtircrisand dollars were taken in
January, 1868,• in. bonds and greenbacks
from the safe of the old man Eenning
hoff by a party of four men, who had
. gained admittance to his residence as
travellers. They 'knocked him down,
robbed him of his keys, opened the, safe
and abstracted the valuable/deposits and
decamped. Fifty thousand dollars
were offered' for the arrest etY the
thieves, but the principal ones escaped,
Shopper& andiGagger. being &nested by
'officer league of this' city. 'Gagger had
been living with l3eruringholac and cir
comstarces seem to point to his com
plicity in the robbery, but he has been
declared innocent by a Jury. ',lt was
proved that Shoppert had resolved some
ten or twelve hundred dollars as his
share of boot*, and be-was accordingly
convicted. As the principal robbers are •
at large and hardly any money has been
recovered, it is not probable that Mr.'
Hague will getl the offered reward, but
:ho deserves at least a share of it.

Allegheny Pollee Appointments.
TiM Police COminitree of lie Altetlfe
ny Councils held a meeting last evening
at the Mayor's office, and in conjunction
with Mayor Drum made the following
appointments for the ensuing year:
Chief of Police—Wm. Bowderi.
Captain cf the Watch—Samuel Crow.
REGULAR FORCE.
Alf. Gabby, S. S. Hager,-
Jackson Scott, John. Hall,
John Mcßoberts, Chas. Heasly,
Wm. Nixon, David Jones, -
Martin Shafer, Wm. Kennedy,
Wm. Green, John Long,
Joseph Cainpbell, John Lafferty,
Wash. Swain, Wm. Palmer,
Chas. 'McChesney, Allen Stewart,
August Ekey, Nathaniel Leis,
Frank Campbell, John Sylenberg, _

Alex. Gibson, • John Quirk,
Dauiel,Graham, 'Wm. Crawford,
John H.lqueller, Benjamin Clark,
John Hills, August Definer,
J./ - -C. Mclntyre.
SUBSTITUTE—John Caldwell.
As,will be seen all of the old officers
have been reinstated with the exception
of five members. The lieutenants have not
been decided upon as yet, but will be
chqsen from the regular force. It was ; de- '
cided to make a change in the mariner
of putting the force on duty. Here
after four of the number will be detailed
for office duty, and the remainder divid
ed with three divisions or reliefs.' The
first relief will go on 'at noon of each
day and remain until midnight. The
other two reliefs will go on at eight in the
evening and remain until daylight next
morning. The reliefs will alternate with
each other each week, and thus all will
be alternately on and off at night. By
this plan the whole force will be on duty
every evening trom eight until twelve
o'clock, when, as is generally the case,
their services are most needed, and it is
thought that the police system may thus
be made the more effective and beneficial
(to the interests of the city.
' The Committee also decided to uniform
the members of the force in a manner
and with regulations similar to the sys
tem in practice in Pittsburgh. The sal
ary of the Chief of Police was increased
one hundred dollars, and all the regular
force placed on an equal footing in regard
to the price paid to each, which has not
-not been the custom heretofore, the night
police ieoeiving a small amount, over
that paid to those on duty during the day.
The Committee made an estimate of
the amount necessary for the mainte
nance of the system during the year,
but we are not at liberty to give the
exact amount. It will, however, vary
but little from that expended last year
The Birmingham Burglaries.
The old saying that "murder will out"
is verified almost every day, and it ap
pears to apply to burglaries is well.
About the 23d or 24th of December last
we published an account of three burg
laries perpetrated in Birmingham. The
shoe store of Jacob Voelker, the harness
shop of Jacob Selma and the tailor shop
of John A. Pail, stating that there was
no clue to the perpetrators of the burg
lary;
has transpired since that time, how
ever, that there was a clue which will
lead to the capture of at least a portion
of the guilty parties. A few days since
Mr. Voelker, while hurrying along the
street met James Habicon, and discover.
ed that he/had upon his feet a pair of
the boots Which had been taken from his
shop on the night of the robbery. The
matter was then placed in the hands of
officer Ponder, who "worked' up the job."
He traced Harbicon to a tavern on I.=rov
ener street, kept by Michael Harbicon,
his brother, and there it appears, found
other goods, which were subseenently
icientihed as a part of the stolen prop
erty. It also transpired that the goods
had been taken to this house by Robert
McLaughlin and Henry Coursin. Some
days after- the clisowery, the officer, as
certained that Michael Habican, assisted
by McLaughlin and Coursin at a late
-hour of the night transported boxes of
goods to the residence of Miss Anna Mc-
Intyre. on Wylie street, and the premi
ses being searched. a few articles of- the
stolen property were found.
James Habicon was arrested and placed
in the lock up several days since, where
he was kept until yesterday with, the
expectation of arresting his brother and
McLaughlin- and Courant, who it appears
.have been absent on a peddling tour,
disposing of the stolen goods perhaps,
for several weeks past.
In the meantime information was made
against Mm. Mclntyre- for receiving sto
len goods. She was arrested yesterday
/ and after a . hearing before Alderman
Strain she was held to bail in the sum
of five hundred t dollars for her appear
ance at Court.
Three informations charging Michael
Habipon, Robert McLaughlin and Henry
Coursin were made yesterday and war-
rants issued for their arrest.
James Habicon was released on his
owitzecognizance for his
_appearance et
Court.
A Sensation.
A young girl about sixteen years of
age, residing in tho Third ward, Alle
gheny, created considerable excitement
in the.vicinity of her residence, yesterday
about noon, by feigning to comMit sui
cide. She was found lying Upon the
floor of one of the rooms in a . semi-un
conscious condition, and when raised up
faintly whispered', ' , laudanum." ' Her
mother was absent from the house at the
time, but returned quickly in answer to
a summons, as she supposed, to witness
the last scene In her dauehter'a mortal
career.
After a deal of lexcifeinent, eonfaslon
and speculation as to the cause of the rash
abt, it was reniarked by' one more sage
than the rvat, that the odors emanating
from the vial, in which the deatlidealing
fluid was supposed to have been, seemed
rather like the perfumes from a
whiskey bottle than anything • else.
This opinion was taken up quickly and
nolnoide&ln by the majority of, those
present, who thereupon left in disgust,
deeply chagrined at this termination of
an affair which promised such . a rich .
field for gossip and wonder. The young
girl recovered in a few hours, with an ex
perience which may, perhapa teach her a
valuable lesson tor .ber 'nature deport
ment, at least in this line. ,

Alleged Chicken Thieves Arrested—The
I Plunder Seeured.
Edward E. Barr, residing near the
'outer depot," Second ward, Allegheny,
made information before Mayor Drum
yesterday morning, against three men
giving their names respectively as A.
Wehrend, Augustus Schreiber and Peter
H. Frolich, for larceny. The parties were
arrested. about two o'clock the same
morning by one of the night police, who/
noticed them at his approach starting tip
from behind a board pile on Ohio avenue
and running away. The officer immedi
ately gave chase and with the assistance
of two companions succeeded in arresting
the party, who had in their possession a
dozen chickens and two ducks, ten of
the chickens being dead.! They were
locked up in the tombs, and about seven
o'clock Mr. Barr made his appearance at
the Mayor's office in search of twelve
chickens and two ducks which had been
stolen from him during the previous"
night or early in the morning. When
made acquainted with the circumstances
,of the arrest of the three men, he ex
amined the plunder secured from them,
immediately identified it aS his property,
and made the Information as stated. Af
ter a hearing the accused' gave bail for
their appearance at Court. It is but just to
say that defendants deny the charge, and
state that they were passing along the
avenue when they noticed the chickens.
Strioping down to pick the plunder up
they saw the officer coming, and sup
posing him to have been the thief con
cluded to get out of the way, with the re.
suit as given. They are all residents of
the Fifth ward, Allegheny, and have
heretofore borne good characters for up
rightness and honesty.

Death or Mr J
. J ohn - Ch
' A'
'Thin well known and-eminently
complished and useful citizen died on
Thursday at his reaidenne on the
grounds of the Allegheny Cemetery.
Mr Chislett was a man of many accom
plishments, much grace of manner, and
withal an humble and devout Christian.
He was born in Somersetshire, England,
in 1800, - and emigrated thence to this
country in 1832, arriving in liew York
in the first year of the prevalence in that
city of the Asiatic cholera. After a few
months of hesitation as to where he
would settle, he came in September of
that Year to this city, and established in
Allegheny its first marble w - >rks, await
ing, while in this business, the public
appreciation of his fine taste and skill as
an architect. to which profession much of
his tittle was afterwards given, as many
flue public and private buildings in the
city and neighborhood designed by him
attest. He was a student of civil engi
neering, landscape, gardening and flora
culture. TO his skill and taste n these,
in addition,'to his fine persof al char
acter, it is doubtless owing that his
fellow corporators of the Allegh€ ny Cem
etery selected him In 1345, the year of its
origin, to the Superintendency of the
grounds of that institution. Relinquish
ing all other Pursuits he gave himself up
wholly to the difficult and arduous
duties of this office and has continued
therein until his , death, achieving for
the Allegheny Cemetery the just emi
nence oil:being unsurpassed by any in
the United States, and gaining for him
self an enduring memorial in its admira
ble plans, its serpentine walks and drives,
its varied beauties of woodland and lawn,
of tree, flower and shrub, of hill,
mound aed valley, and rivulet and lake,
all of surpassing beauty and harmonious
adaptation. •
In person Mr. Chis]ett was of impos
ing presence, tall and dignified, cour
teous, a model of propriety of manners
and speech; firm and decided, yet gentle
and suave. _More than a year ago he suf
fered total privation of sight, and was
the prey and ultimate victim of a hope
less malady—cancer of the facial bones.
For the last six weeks he has lived with
out food, and almost withoutjpain. He
has outlived his expectations, bearing all
his afflictions with philosophical pa
tience and Christian submission, praying
—not for long life, but that he might
quickly pass from this life of pain and
suffering to the fruition of peace and joy,
among the saints in Heaven.
On Sunday at 2 o'clock P. at. his re
mains will be removed to their last rest
ing place, under the sod of a spot selected
byhiinsolf in the beautiful "God's Acre,"
whose varied and clustering beauties at
once illustrate the genius and success
of his lifework. and constitute his appro
priate and fitting mausoleum.

known that the circulation is almost en
tirely confined to the counting-room and

good medium for the manufacturing and
wholesale interests of the city, but Witte
the very limited local circulation

that it should have to resort to this ap.

But our readers will observe that it is
not so cheap after all Thirty cents for

Wanted.
•
James Rogers, a resident of Allegheny,
is wanted at Erie, according to a tele
graphic message received by Chief of
Police] Bowden, Thursday afternoon.
It seems by the dispatch that Rodgers is
wanted to explain some matters in rela
tion to'certaiii of his operations with sev
eral Erie hotels. The boarding house of
Rogers was discovered and a watch
kept!ct it during Thursday afternoon,
but helliled to put in an appearance,
doubtless having been informed of the
IsituatiOn, and feeling indisposed to res
bond td the demand of the Erie authori
ties. It is quite probable that Rogers
will take up his residence in some other
locality for a few days.
