Who la to Blame.
Yesterday one of the Mayor's police,
acting for Alderman Shore, took Lilly
MCDonald out of Jail fora bearing before
- the-Alderman on a charge of disorderly
oondtict. After the bearing Lilly was re
committed to jail for fifteen days. When
she first went out of the jall she was per
fectly sober. She was returned by the of
ficer in a state of beastly intoxication.
After being placed in her old cell she
became so violent that the prison keepers
were compelled to handcuff and remove
her to another part of the jail from the
other prisoners.
This is a case 'which ertainly needs
some explanation. It was the officer's
' duty to return his prisoner to jail prompt
ly and in as Proper, a condition as he re
ceived her. If he, In going to or return
ing from the Alderman's office, loitered
'along the road, and accompanied or al
lowed the prisoner to enter Into a drink
ing house, he unquestionably, to draw it
very mild, was negligent of his duty.
It may be that the case is not so . bad as
It seems, but somebody is certainly to
blame for the drunkenness of the woman.
Who is the guilty party?

on the Allegheny Trust Company for
forty dollars, which , was taken by the

And the goods he had previously selected
handed to the customer. Shortly after
his departure the check was sent over to

Mason had no account there, and upon
further investigation it was ascertained
that Mr. Mason was not foreman of Lyon

MONDAY. March 15.—The hatears cor
pus case, Commonwealth ex. rel. Jane
Kent vs. Wm: Kent, previously men
tioned, risme up for argument this morn
ing. A number of witnesses were ex
amined, and from the testimony the fol
lowing facts transpired: The relator and
respondent were married in England
about six years ago, and have had three
children, two of whom are dead, and the
other, a little girl, nineteen months Old,
is still living. They came to this coenty
In 186Ei, since which Ul:flea is alleged:the
husband abused and maltreated the wife
to such an extent that she was compelled
to apply for a divorce. The application
was made and they were divorbed
in December of last year. The
mother then took the child - and
obtained boarding it a boarding note
on Ross street, 1 'the Second . wad,
where she remain d uninterrupted y
the father of the child until the evening
of the llth instant. During the evening
she went - out for a few motnents and left
the child in charge of a girl at the board
lug house, and during her 'absence, it is
alleged, the respondent came and took
the child away by force, and it was to re
cover it that this writ was issued. The
respondent alleged as his reasons for
taking the child that the mother was not'
a competent person to have charge of it:
g
it appears from the testimony. hoer,
that she was competent to care for the
child; that her parents, who reside in'
England, are wealthv, and that she was
the more suitable person of the two to'
have charge of it.
Mr. Mellon appeared for the relator
and Messrs. Moreland,' Moore - and Kerr
for respondent.
The Court decreed that the respondent,
William Kent, restore the child to the,
custody of the mother, and that hepay

Pure Spica* and Where to Purchase.
It has of late been a'' - t very difficult mat
.
ter for the purchaser - to obtain in this or
any other market an article of spice free
'from deleterious substanees used in the
profitable process of . adulteration. Im
pure apices are an aboniination just as
much as pure spices are pleasant and
agreeable. We could hardly relish sea
soning victuals with black lead for pep
per, or yellow bark ground into powder
for mustard, if we knew that the articles
were such; but we do use such articles
more or less under the name of spices
• during the year, unless we are
careful from whorn we purchase.
Pure spices are to be obtained
in this market, and consumers can rest
assured that they have obtained such if
it bears the label of the Iron City , Spice
Fifth avenue, near High street.
Messrs. Strickler & Morledge, the enter
havengpp of that establishment,
ever endeavored te furnish the
very purest of ground spices, and dealeo
and grocers who sell their products never
hear complaints from customers on the
ground of Door or adulterated mustards,
peppers, cinnamon, aloes; glitger or any
other of the numerous spices known to
housekeepers., ,
The browned coffee put in pound pack•
ages, good heavy weight, and ready for
the trade, is a splendid article,so roasted
and treated as to retain all the aroma of
the' berry. Any of our readers who have
not tried this article should do so at
once, and, our word for it, thereafter they
shall use, none other in ; the market.
Corn of first quality is ground fresh every'
day into meal and coffee' and ground
nuts are roasted to order and delivered
on same day. Everything in the way of
spices will be foUnd at the Iron City Spice
Mills, and we earnestly commend Messrs.
Strickler, .1: Morledge as eminently_ de
serving public ccinfidence and patronage,

Messrs. Roberts, Roenigk Sc Co., the
popular and reliable upholsterers and

possession of the large and commodious
three story building, No. 61 Smithfield

trade. This firm has long enjoyed the
tallest measure of public confidence, as
they have so conducted their business
to afford the most utmost satisfaction to
their patrons, and with enlarged facilities
and . a Magnificent assortment of new
goods they bide fair to monopolize to
themselves, much greater share of pat
ronage than has hitherto been awarded
them. The senior members ofj the firm
have had long practical experience in all
branches of the business, while Mr. S. E.
Gill, who was recently admitted to the
firm, is a gentleman equally well ac
quainted with the trade, and has had
previous connection with a. well knoWn
carpet house and upholstery establish
ment of this city. The - firm will con
tinue to pay marked attention to the up
holstering business, and if any evidence
of their skill and neatness in such work
be wanting, the attention of the Second
United Presbyterian Church, Allegheny.
(Rev. J. B. Clark's,) which has just
been re-opened, will 'Willett it, as we
have seldom seen more elegant work

good to the people than any other medi
cines ever offered to the public. They

generally one or two bottles have the de
sired effect. We make a specialty of the
following diseases, and warrant a cure in
every case: Acute or Chronic Rheuma
tism, Catarrh, we have cured hundreds
of cases, some of long standing; Dyspep

Miss Judith Russel, of New. Bedford,
writes : I have been afflicted with se
vere prostrating cramps in my limbs,
cold feet and hands, and a general disor
dered system. While visiting some
friends in New York, who were using
PLANTATION BITTERS. they. prevailed
upon me to try them. I commenced with
a small wine-glass full after each meal.
Feeling better by degrees, in a few days'
I was astonished to find the .coldness and
cramps had entirely lea me, and I could
sleep 'the night through, which I had not
done for years. I feel like another being.
My appetite and strength have also great-
Sy improved by the use of the Frain",

Narch 15.—General 801 on
e! man issued en (Hider to-day republishin g
the act of congress vacating certain
offices within thirty days from the pas
sage of the act, and ordering that all per
sons Who cannot take the iron-clad- oath
shall be removed from office on the 18th
inst. This order has created quite a
panic in the State offices, for nearly one
third of the present incumbents are dis
qualified. For the offices that pay no
salaries, the Commanding. Officer has
had no applicants. No appointments
have been made - for many of the. Judge
ships, which leaves legal business In a
chaotic state. This evening a 'batch of
new appointments were made for the
City Councils and some ..=minor city
offices. To-morrow it is stated, a new
set of ,officers will be appointed In the
Capitol.
