SATURDAY, April 17.—Wash Frees
and Richard Johnson, alias Dick Law
rence, wno were committed to jail on
Thtirsidav , by Mayor Brush for ninety
days, under the act of Assembly relating
to professional thieves, were brought
into Court _on a writ of habeas corpus.
John Coyle, Esq., counsel far Frees and
Johnston, asked the Court to discharge
them, stating that the fact of Frees hav
ing been a thief was not evidence that he
was still 'one, and called several witnesses
to prove that he was engaged in a legiti
mate business, and that - it- - was in connec
tion with that business which brought
him to he city. He contended that
Johnson was not a thief and challenged
the commonwealth to produoe evidence
that he was. After hearing the testimo
ny of Chief of Police Hague and oftioers
Moore and Ruch, the Court decided not
to interfere in the matter and the profes
sionals were 'remanded to jail to serve
out the remainder of the ninety days.
E. C. Krehan, Eeq., of Birmingham,
who was recastly appointed Court Inter
preter by the (ovornor, presented his
commission, and was duly installed into

imposing the sentence Jusige Stowe re.
marked that vigorous measures should
be adopted to arrest these murderous
assaults, and that could only be done by
imposing the severest penalties of the
law upon offenders.

Mr. Mat. Canning, Manager of the New
Opera House, is about to be called upon
by a large number of pexnkseirt gentle
men of the city, to accept at the hands of
his friends and admirers, a grand, com
plimentary benefit. Mr. tanning, dur-;
ing the past season, his conducted 'the
Opera House in such a clever manner as
to win the admiration of all lovers the
legitimate drama, and has established
beyond cavil, the fact that he well
knows how to cater to the better and
more exalted tastes of the people. We
trust he may have such a benefit as will
convey to him in a substantial manner,
the large measure of satifaction he has
afforded
about to clos during the theatrical term.

The extensive and destructive. conflag
ration at iroreythe's Oil Works has at
length subsided, and there *pears to be
no further apprehension of Caner. The
losa of property, although not definitely
L
ascertained, is estimated at $298,000, and
the Insurance i 4E4,000, makings loss over
the insurance of ;114,000. The scene of
the disaster was visited yesterday by
hundreds- of persons. The cuff on the
Citizens' . Passenger ' • Railway were
crowdedfrom nine o'clock In the morn
ing until late in the afternoon going out,
and in returningthere wasa perfect jam
until late l'at night, and the street was
crowdOd with vehicles of every descrip
tion all day. The fire has been extin
guished ad every point except at the tank
of distillate oil containing 8,000 barrels,
which waa one of the first to take fire.
There is considerable cittantity of oil
remaining - in it, • and the fire will con
tinue until it is all consumed.
Chief Engineer John H. Hare, and the
entire Fire Department, deserve great
credit for the faithful manner in which
they labored to extinguish the flames.
Mr. Hare was on the ground as soon
after the alarm was given as it was possi
ble for him to reach it, and remained as
long as there was any hopes of extin
guishing the flames or a probability of
them spreading. For two entire days
and nights he and a portion of the De
partment remained in service and worked
fearlessly and faithfully all the time.
Taking into consideration the fact that
this labor was performed voluntarily
and without the hope Or probability of
recompense or reward, too much praise
cannot be awarded to the brave men who
thus risked their lives and sacrificed
t heir health and comfort in performing it.
A Terrible Deed of Blood.
The following particulars of the horri
ble tragedy enacted on Boher's Landing,
Bedford county, Pa., last week, we have
gleaned from various quarters. On Fri
day last, Dash McCauslin, a resident on
Main street, started out on a hunting ex
pedition, ,following the junlita as far
east as Red Bank. Finding nothing in
the game line, he crossed the river at
this - point, and wended his way back as
far as Boher's Landing, where a large
gallinaceons fowl attracted his attention
to such a degree as to excite the Sporting
passion beyond control, and - as a micas
nary consequence the bird in a short time
was a corpse. Whereupon the owner of
this turkey. bent on vengeance, came to
town, purchased a butcher knife, and de
clared his intention to take the life of the
aggressor. Shortly afterward he eame
in contact with McCauslin, grabbed him
back of tee neck, and plunged the knife ,
into his throat a little to the left of the
windpipe. He was in the act ofrepeating
the thrust wham McCauslin, by a mighty,
desperate effort, extricated himself, and
beat a hasty retreat for home, at which
place he arrived in a short time, the dig.
truce being less than a quarter of a mile.
Bober, not being satisfied with what he
had already done, followed, and caught
his victim, who, owing to the loss of
blood be d sustained and the powerful
exertions he had made in trying to free
himself, could not resist the second at
tack, and quietly submitted to have a
rope put around his neck, and be literally
dragged back to the, wharf, where the
rope was swung over the top of a temp
post, and in a few minutes was dangling
between heaven and earth. As soon as
the rope was secured to the post, Bober,
with deliberation and composure, com
menced to skin his victim, and had half
completed his work when the rooe
broke. The spark of life which still lin
gered in the body,was extinguished by
s well directed blow on the skull with a
club; after which his heart was taken
out and out to pieces. Behar was ar
rested, and 'is in the hands of the author
ities,. The friends of the deceased took
charge of the mutilated body.
The above, from the Bedford Inquirer,
tells how wicked dogs are treated in that
section—certainly much worse treatment
than that advocated so zealously by the
'bat, to kill them with cold poison.
e Soldiers' Monument.
ff"lm quentionns to where to locate the
proposed monument to be drooled in
honor of t he brave boys froln Allegheny
county, who died beneath the old flag in
the late rebellion, remains unsettled, and
under the present circumstances we pre
sume will remain so for- some time to
come, unless a sufcient number of the
incorporators 'waive their views in order
to effect a compromise, It is now sug
gested, by way of settling the dispute,
that the square of ground recently occu
pied by the Scotch Hill Market House
and owned by the holders of property on
,
it, be !selected for the purpose, It is
thought that that location. will meet with,
little or no, objection, more especially as
the citizens of the Second ward will
make a generous proposition to the Mon
ument Association to secure the award.
A oorrespondent writes at considerable
length and the availability of that site,
from which we extract the following:
1, The citizens owning property front
ingE
on the nd Ward Park, I feel .as
sured, will in the event of the erection
of the pro monument, cede • to the
Associatien the rights they hold to the
Mt!, and,at same time enter Into an
tigreemekt tO provide iron railings for
closing id the entire grounds. erect two
public fountains within the square, plant
more trees and further adorn and im
prove the grounds in such manner as to
render them attractive both in Summer
and Winter. The location is good'and,
the proffered awdstanca from the citizens
should not be despised. The . Ass:elation
can have the assurance that the grounds
will always be oared for and watched by.
the residents' of the locality and from
time to time se improved biprivate en
terprise as to form the on attractive
'garden spot in thii•limits of e old city,
which froni Itself would attract visitors.
even If the monument did not grace the
the square." -

It was reunarked:in the March article
that the indications which preve correct
in other months often !MIL in March, and
October. The result, in part, has proved
true, there being more stormy and
cloudy days and less sunshine than were
called for.' The latter part of the lunar
month, April, fulfilled the prediction.
As was remarked, the.Equinoxtial would
discharge a large amount of rain; begin
ning on the 19th of March, and by snow
and rain continue till_ the 3d -of April,
or one storm, and the latter, or April
part, has been of dry, cold westerlye
and northeast winds, making dusty
roads, in accordance with the indications.
Man's perplexity is his helpless and mis
erable estate by nature, and his feprs
and dread of the future from misplaced
affections. An All Wise Providence,
who has been so bountiful in the gifts of
good health and fine crops since 1854, is
forgotten or mistrusted, and finite wis
dom is substituted to predict evil. In
January and February, with grave
astonishment, remarks were 'made:
What means this weather; so
warm ? We shall have no ice
buds will swell; fruit crop short, and a
sickly season. ' February transferred , her
atmosphere to March, when began a
second edition of winUer; foe :same in
abundance. March tnftferred her at
mosphere to April, keeping back the too
early growth of the earth; by pres
ent observation it bids fair to be one of
the best of seasons. A warm .December
always
was
an unhealthy season. The
last was cold. We have only now, to run
the gauntlet of the long north-east rain
storms of May, which often close with
sudden severe frosts. The immense
bodies of snow lying In the north-west,
north and north-east have had the ten
dency to prevent the south and south
west winds from producing warm thun
der storms, which always end with se
vere frosts in April. The night winds
from the snow regulate the atmosphere.
It has been and now is just cold enotigh
to prevent injury, and if such tempera
ture hugs close to the summer, it bids
fair for a fine season. Could the wisdom
of man, if he had a clime, devise such
a season? Wd say, "Be content with
such things as ye have," to-morrow and
future consequences are in the hands of
a Higher Power. In one sense, chi
less of yourself and more of your neigh
lax; in another, thluit;\more of yourself
and you will respect, properly, all man
kind; for man is the boundary line upon
which meet the eternal, spiritual and
material, Heaven and earth, time and
eternity. In all duties and enterprises
start, relying upon the justice of your
cause end the purity of your motives,
and this will lead you into the stream of
ways and means; in thejegitimate use of
wisdom, wit and sagacity, • and then
life can be enjoyed as your Creator
intended it. If man is merely
contented to 'retain his natural
tastes, appetitei, physically and in-
tellectually, and no more, to carry
them beyond time, he can do so; he is
a free agent; but what Is there beyond
the grave to satisfy or satiate such appe
tite? Nothing but mere longing. But if
the taste is for eternal things and im
mortality, the focid is provided, that yon
will be ever satisfied, but never satiated.
Remember your mind is ever in advance
of your condition; but bring your mind
to your condition, and there will be no
dread of the future. Be thankful for ihe
seasons as they it*e. "For 'he that ob
serveth the wind all not sow, and he
that regardeth the clouds shall not
reap," is a fundamental truth.

Several weeks ago we noticed the dis
covery of a coal vein near Pleasant Ville,
and the prospect of its speedy develop
ment. It is upon the farm of Mr. Lyman
Smith, about two miles south of the vil
lage. The discovery was made while
drillinglor oil, and the vein was ascer
tained to be eight feet in thickness. ' Mr.
Smith at once discontinued boring for
oil, and one month ago commenced the
work of sinking a shaft._ This undertak
ing was completed on Friday last. .It is
thought that.ln the course of another
fortnight the orrators will - be ready to
receive orders from - consumers. • The
facilities will besuch as to enable them
to mine and excavate one hundred ;tons

We are glad to announce that both of
these Popular establishments have been
consolidated under one management,
and been newly refitted and refurnished
in such elegant manner as to render them

A Hard Case.
A young hopeful, aged about twelve
years, John O'Brienhy name, was arres
ted by officer Garber, on Etna street, in
the Ninth ward, yesterday, and brought
to the lock-up on a chargpof drunken
ness and ,disorderly conduct. The boy
was evidently intoxicated, and stated
that he had been drinking ale, but refu
sed to tell where he had got it. The of
ficer stated that there were five or six
boys; all about the same size. in the par
ty, and that when he discovered them
they were hallowing at him and then run
up stairs ins house and called after him
out of the window. He went to get an
other officer to assist him in making the
arrest in order to catch the whole party,
but when he returned - they had all es
caped but O'Brien, who was found secre
ted in the cellar. He,was locked up-and
will have a hearing this morni* i when
he will probably be sent to the Bowie of_
Refuge.
It is quite evident that there is some
den in that locality where liquor is sold
on Sunday and to minors, as the officer
asserts that there are drunken buys - at
that point almost every Sunday. The
offender should be hunted out and pros
ecuted, as it-would be a much, less ex
pense to the county to keep one scoun
drel in the county jail than to send per
haps a dciten boys to the House of Refuge.
Amusements.
OPERA Housu.—Mrs. Mary Gladatane
concluded, her engagement at the Opera
House Saturday evening. The attend
ance during the week was not as large as
Mrs. Gladetane's merits as an actress
should draw. To-night, Mr. and Mrs.
Watkins commence an engagement of
six nights, when will be presented the
beautiful Irish drama entitled "Trodden
Down; or, Under Two Flags."
PlrrsuuseEt THEATRE.—The past
week at the Pittsburgh Theatre has been
an immensly profitable, if we are to
,fudge from the crowdsof persons present
at each entertainment. Mr. Taylor, the
inimitable oomique, and McAndrews,
the unapproachable delineator of ne
gro charac ns te
They
have be en the chief at
tractio
. They both remain " through
the present week.
TEM MINSTRELS.—Sharplers Mi
strals, under the supervision of that in
imitable wit and caricaturist, Sam Sharp
ley, will open an engagement of three
nights at Masonic Hall, Wednesday
evening. This company needs no nitro
duction to Pittsburgh amusement seek
ers. it may be well to state, however,
that the programme, varied each even
info is said to contain nothing old, but
everything new.
To Be 'disbanded
Our readers will remember that among
the parties arrested for striking false
alarms of fire in Allegheo, were two
members of the Friendship Hose Com
pany, located in the Second ward. The
matter since then has created consider
able feeling among the remaining mem
bers, some of whom look over and others
condemn the conduct of their two titsso
elates. The feeling has risen so high that
there is now, so we are informed, a strong
probability of the disbandment of the
company, and the turning of the appa
atns over to the city authorities. We un
derstand the case will be brought before
the Committee on Fire Engines and Hose
of the City Councils, at their next meet
ing, when some action •will be taken.
The Friendship is one of the oldest and
best companies in the city, and we
would regret exceedingly to hear of ita
disbandment. Always ready and
prompt, on many an occasion it has done
yeoman'Service in saving •the property
and-even-the lives of cilium., whenever
called to tin If the di ffi culty can at
all be &Micah settl, such an efficient
organization should not be disbanded.
