MISS called at the Allegheny

that she was staying temporarily at the

_4ng the absence of her husband. who Was
from home on business; and ;that> upon
going over to her own house on Friday
last she discovered the fact of the rob

the articles were'locked. Theyponsisted
of a fruit and ; cake baskets, silver castor,
fruit and bidter knives, silver forks;
Sec., and were all marked with the own
er's initials. Suspicion attached itself to
a person who was well acquainted with
the domestic arrangements of the family,
and a warrant was accordingly issued by
the Mayor, but a search of theauspected
individual's premises revealed nothing
6 to sustain the suspicion. No other clue
could be obtained to the depredators, and
'- it is quite likely they will escape.

New Map of Pittsburgh
We are indebted to the well known and
first class lithographing house of Krebs.
Lt. Bros., of this city, for a new map of
Pittsburgh, fresh from the press. It is
one of the most complete and perfect
specimens of map lithography ever pub
lished in this section and reflects the
highest credit to the enterprising firm
getting it out, as well as to the Surveyor,
Mr. W.C. Coghlan.
On large scale, with wards plainly
marked, streets carefully and faithfully
located, prominent buildings and busi
ness houses designated, city lots num
bered and measured, railroads traced,
bridges and river channels marked, the
n ap cannot fail to meet with large such
auniversal satisfaction. It is just such
a complete map of the city as has been
demanded by late changes in the re
naming of old streets and laying ont - of
new ones, and citizens will no longer
have occasion to complain of a want of
such an index for refeferenee. The matwentyp
feet a scale of wo hundred and
to the inch, t which, taking up such
vast space, rendered the publication of a
supplement necessary, and competent
surveyors are at work on that part,
which will be furnished gratis to sub
scribers to the map just published. On
the margin of the map are truthful en
gravings of , famillar mills, glass houses
and factories, Which render it quite at
tractive. A copy is to be placed in every
board of trade room in the country, the
publishers having so agreed with certain
advertisers. Persons - desiring to procure
copies should call at the lithographic es
tablishment of the publishers.

Probable Murder at Connellsville.
From the American Standard, pub
lished at 'Uniontown,. we learn that on
Monday morning, the Bth inst., James
McLaughlin, a citizen of Connellsville,
was found at the-foot of Water street in
an insensible condition. He was re
moved to J. W. Foust's Hotel, and med
ical aid at once summoned. He died a
few minutes after the arrival of the snr
geon. A post //torten" examination was
made, when it side found that he
the
headstruck on thee and back of the
head with some hard weapon. The
wounds were pronounced sufficient to
destroy life. A jury was impannelled,
and from the testimony it appears he
was last seen in the evening near the
place where he was found in the morn
ing; two men were with him, and one
was heard to say, "that is enough." The
man who saw and heard this retraced his
steps, but gave no alarm. The
are not yet known. The crime was no
doubt committed for the purpose of rob.
bery, as it is supposed he had some fifty
or sixty dollars in money. collected from
at M their essrs.
cooker tic Co. tor mason work
ovens. The deed appears
to have been done between seven and
eight o'clock on Sabbath evening.
Bigamy.
Michael Sharron, charged with bigamy
on oath of Thomas Archibald,t was ar
rested yesterday by officer Rivers, and
after a hearing committed to jail in de
fault of bail for his appearance at Conrt.
It is alleged .by the prosecutor that the
accused, who was recently married to a
Miss McElroy, at the Emtern Exchange
Hotel, East Liberty, has a wife andeldld
living in Philadelphia. As officer Rivers
was conducting the prisoner to jall,Ewhen
they arrived at the steps at the corner of
Grant and Diamond streets, leading to
the Court llouse yard, Sharron, the pris
oner, struck his captor above the eye
with his fist, and followed up the, blow
with several others in rapid succession,
but failed to get ;Rivers off his feet.
After sometime the officer succeeded in
bringing his mace or "billy" into play
arid dealt the fellow a blow on the head
which felled him to, the ground, inflict
ing swoon& which will probably teach-
I him °lesson that may be of benefit to him
in the future. When he recovered and
regained his Opt he was perfectly sub
dued, and accompanied the officer to jail
without farther trouble.
Sunday evening about nine °taloa a
. 9 I
lire broke out in a small building on
Avery street, Fourth' ivard Allegheny,
used as a cooper shop by the Pearl Flour
The building was of brick, one
Story in height, and contained a few tools I
and a small lot of !dames, which were
destroyed. Adjoining the shop there
was another building Ailed with staves
and coopers' material which, howevert•
was saved through the energetic exer
tions of the Bremen. The fire
ar le suppos
n
. ed to have originated from a cig throw
among the shavings on the floor by a
number of boys `
after had congregated in
the shop during the noon. The loss
will be trilling, and is, we believe, fully
covered by insurance. The building
belonged to the heirs of Richard Gray,
and was of little value. -

In the death of Mr. Graham the com
munity loses one of its brightest exain
pies of even temperea. urbane, upright
and strictly moral citizens; a man of
singular_purity of life, easy of access,
of genial manners, avoiding conspi
cuitv ; distinguished not for talents
or actions, but for diligence and con
stancy of purpose: and for goad, prac—
tical cormrion sense; shining not so
much in public life as the practice of
all the domestic virtues and graces; care
ful in making engagements, but faithful
in fulfilling them.' During the hall' cen
tury of his residence among us he
never sought office, but, with exem
plary fidelity and jn gment,' served the
community in variou capacities,as Coun
cilman President an Director in his fa
voritefold Bank of P ttsburgh, Trustee of
the W3sternUnivetitv,Vice President of
the Western Penn a Hospital, &c., cc.,
and was for many years an elder in the
First U. P.:Chrirch. He was humane and
charitable. An impulse of paternal 'so
licitude led him to visit a sick son in
Missouri. The Journey was too severe a
tax on his physical powers. The death
of his son, with his weight of years; and
infirmities, bore him down. . The last
duties of a stricken family and a be
reaved community_ will this day be per-
formed, and the remains of this much be
loved and good man will be consigned to
the dust from which he came, and he
will be lamented by all who knew him.
In our report of Council proceedings
of Saturday, we stated that Mr. Littell
offered the same reasons in explanation
of his vote against the approval of the
proposed act relative to a city park as
were presented by Mr. Kirk, which was
an error,, and places Mr t Littell in a po
sition not assumed by him. The sen
tence should have read "also offered an
explanation" instead of "offered the
saute explanation."
Ills explanation was in substance as '
follows: He was infavor of a city park,
and believed it a matter that should be
left to a vote of the citizens, but he op
posed the amendment offered by Dr.
Gallaher, because it trammelAd Councils,
and was wholly' inoperative on the main
question whether there should be a . park
or not. The amendment provides that
no bonds shall be issued until the matter
has been submitted to a vote of the peo
ple, and a majority of them shall cast
the votes in fvor of issuing bonds, bt.t
does not prohibit Councils from purchas
ing the land for a park and creating a
loan or taxing the people for the payment
of the purohaie money, and for this rea
son he voted against the act.

Temperance Meeting.
A meeting of the friends of temper
ance, law and order, will be held this
evening at 734 o'clock, in Rev. John
MeMillan's church, Sandusky street,
Allegheny City. It is proposed to peti
tion the Degislathre to give to the citi
zens of each election district the privi
lege of deciding whether any license to
sell intoxicating liquors• in said district
shall be granted or not. This measure
has been strongly recommended by.
Judge Mellon, and has _also been fully
endorsed by some of our city tapers.
The Rev. John B. Clark, D. D., and sev-'
oral other gentlemen, are prepared to
speak on the question to-night. As this
subject vitally affects the peace and com
fort of every home in the county, it is
expected that the attendance will be
large, and all citizens are invited to take
part in the discussion.
Rescued from Drowuliag.
Saturday afternoon, Johnny Simpson,
a little boy about five years of age, whose
parents reside at the corner of Grant and
Water streets, while playing on a flat, in
the Monongahela river, between Grant
and Ross streets, fell into the water and
would have drowned had it not been
that Fred Dierst and Jimmy Hamill,who
were at Hamill's headquarters, saw him
fall in and ran to his 'assistance. The
"headquarters'-' are situated on the bank
some distance back from the river, and
when they arrived at the spot where the
boy fell in he had disappeared. In a
moment, however, he came to the sur
face, and was taken out and carried to
Jimmy's room, where the properrerne
dies were applied to resuscitate him. He
wasquite-insensible 'when taken out of
the water, but was restored to conscious
ness iu a few moments.
A Water Famine.
Onr Pittsburgh readers will remember
the announcement we made some days
since relative to the repairs and improve
ments in progress, at the Water Works,
which necessitated the running of but
one engine for a short time. We have
to announce this morning the breaking
down of this remaining engine and the
consequent stoppage of the water supply
in the basin. It is therefore absotutely ne
cessary for Pittsburghers, lf they wish to
have anything like a sufficiency of water
to supply their wants, to be extremely
careful in Rause for a day or two, until the
Water Works are in running order again.
Superintendent French has a large force
of workmen engaged and will probably
have the damage repaired by this even
ing or to-morrow morning. In the mean
time all citizens are cautioned against
any waste-
At lins Old Tricks.
Thomas Devine, one of the landaharks
who in the capacity pre
of hackmen y
upon the travelling public by charging
exorbitant prices for conveying passen
gers and baggage, was arrested yester
day. It appears that Robert Nixon, a
stranger in the city, desiring to go from
the Allegheny Valley Railroad Depot to
the Union Depot, employed Devine to
convey-himself and baggage there, De
vine agreeing to do so for twenty-fi
way
ve
cents. After taking him part of.the
Dvine demand one dollar an reNci
to e proceed further ed
until he rec d eived s it.
Nixon paid the money and after reaching
the Union Depot proceeded to the May
or'spflica and made information, charg
ing the hackman with extortion. Devine
was arrested and held for a hearing.
Palnful , Accldent .
A lad named Miller, employed at Sboen
berger's 'MIL had his foot crushed on
Saturday afternoon, by being caught be
tween the bumpers of two freight cars
on the Allegheny Valley Railroad. It
seems he attempted to clamber between
the cars attached to the train, which had
been standing but which just at the
time began to 'neve, With the result as
opstated. He was removed from his peril
ous position to his residence, on Straw
berry alley, where the wounded foot was
dressed. It is thought that amputation
will be necessary.
It is just a week since little Eddie Mil
ler, the boy's brother, was shot.

OPERA HorsE.—The beautiful and
highly interesting drama of "Rosedale,
or the Riflell," with Ettie Henderson
in the role of Rosa Leigh, was presented
a the Opera House last night to a toler
ably large audience. Her rendition of
the character wlis ecellent. It is well
adapted to her style and manner, and
she plays it with more .ease and free ,
dom than anything she has attempted
during her present engagement. Messrs.
Daud, Norton, 'Hato, Wright and Col
lings, in their respective roles, played
admirably, as did also the ladies in their
cast. The piece will be repeated to-night.

their tables,, so that whether a member
of the family, or a servant, comes to the
stall, the meat supplied shall be up to the
demands of an emcurian taste. Give

A Brush- Between Krushmakers.
Leonard Goose and Henry M. Giube
are, or rather were, partners in the mini
ufacture of brushes, having a place of
business on Fourth avenue, near Market
street. A few days ago, Goose alleges,
Giube wished to dissolve the partnership,
and accordingly seized upon the effect
of the firm and looked the door against
the other partner, thus effectually accom
plishing his object. Goose, however' ob
jected to this method of settling the bus
iness and, sought a remedy by making
information before Alderman McMaster's,
yesterday, against Glupe for, larceny as
bailee, setting forth. the above eircum•
stances. A. warrant was issued.
Speedy Justice.
Officer Bell, of Alderman Taylor's
police, yesterday arrested a citizen
of Indiana, Pennsylvania, charged
with larceny as bailee by Thomas
B. Speedy, also a resident of Indiana.
The information was made on Saturday
evening and the accused promptly ar
rested yesterday morning. The,offense
consisted in the detention of sixty, dol
lars, which the prosecutor alleges he had
entrusted the defendant with for a spe
cial purpose. The case was finally coln
promised, the defendant explaining his
actions and delivering up the money, to
gether with an amount sufficient to pay
the costs of prosecution.
