In view of certain circumstances of late occurrence, it will not much surprise our readers to announce that here. in this city of magnificent boundaries, a first class and well-kept dissecting house Jain fall tide of operation. affording the young lances of the medical profession ample opportunity to acquaint themselvesthor. oughly with the secrets wrapped up and hidden in the human form. It is perhaps eminently proper that such schools should exist, for physicians cannot too well acquaint themselves with' the secrets ofanatomy taidPikysiology. Manikins,no matter how cleverly made do not fill the bill of requirement and the real flesh; blood and boned are necessary for the successful attainment of correct medical and surgical knowledge. Hence, in noting the discovery we have made, we do not pretend to find fault with the fol lowers of science for maintaining their well ordered morgue. We know the announcement of the fact of a dissecting school being in operation here Will chill the blood of many timid persons, but to allay all needless alarm, it is well enough to say that the great majori ty of the subjects for the knife are brought hither from other places,and we are confidently assured that body snatch ing is condemned and avoided. The bodies are washed, prepared and packed in other localities by corresponding members of the :Skull and Cross-bone Club, and are forwarded here as ordi nary,merchandise, and In a' circuitous manner of delivery from one place to another, finally- reach the table of the dissecting room, to be disposed of accord te the best de rules of . It ing is hardly necese fi ary ned to state the lscienceoca tion of the dissecting rooms to our med ical readers, but ;to the outside corn. munity from whom they are veiled in close secrecy, we, might hint that they are located on one : of our most traveled thoroughtares, and hundreds pass the old dingy, dirty house, shut tered closely from week to week, every hour of the day, and we daresay never, imagine how many pounds of decayed human flesh and how many bushels of human skulls and bones are bleaching within - the anti quated walls. The operations are all carried on after night, and when a healthy, first class corpse is obtained there is generally very large attendance of physicians and medical students to participate in the guastly entertainment. Ordinarily the attendance at "consulta tion" is' not huge; and sometimes the dissecting is left to young, bungling stu dents, who revel in-finding out for them- Aelves, in their own rude way, secrets of human organism. So long 'as the room are conducted so well and the sub jects secured elsewhere, we presume no opposition can be made to the presence of the death house in our midst, and, in deed, for the good of science none should be made. Committee on Surveys. At a special meeting of the City Conn. oil Committee on Surveys, Saturday, im portant matters concerning the new city districts were considered, and it was de cided to make a tour of inspection on Saturday next. They will look at the proposed locations of the route of Forbes street beyond Braay street, the Pnckety road, Shady lane and other points to which their attention has been invited. In all matters concerning the laying out of the streets in the new districts, it is the wish of the Committee to proceed with as much haste as is consistent with the public good. Careful examinations will be ma&e, and all petitions and re monstrances will be given due consider ation. The matter of the location of Ridge street,. referred back, was recOP iddered, and the former action, resolv ing to have the street made straight, was confirmed. They decided to straighte% St. Marys avenue, Lawrenceville, and or dered the fixing of grades of Hazlett and Liberty streets , and Denney's alley, in the Sixteenth ward. The Alleged outrage. The parties arrested Sunday evening, charged on oath of Ellen Dawson with rape, an account of which we published yesterday; had a hearing before his Honor, Mayor Brush, yesterday at two o'clock, which resulted in their being 'held to bail in the snm of one thousand 'dollars each, for their appearance at court, in default of which they were committed to jail. The bar keeper re ferred to in .-a .pr evious account of the 'affair was also arrested, but after a hearing was discharged, there being no evidence implicating him in the outrage. A warrant was issued for Donavan, the proprietor of the house wherein the affair place, but he has not yet been arrested. i'MwaVR r2l=l_42ly - The Third Ward Square Of the :All*. gheny Diamond, for a numbs"' past hail attriietedr the "attenttoii of ttie+ City Fathers, who at sundry times made spasmodic attempts at agreeing upon a plan to render it somewhat more pleasing to the eye. and profitable to the city ex chequer. Thus far, however, all efforts have proved abortive, and there it ilea an unsightly, unimproved and unprofit able but exceedingly valuable piece of land right in the heart and centre of the business and traffic of the city. Had it been pioperly improved two or three years ago by this time all the funds ex pended would have been doubly re turned, and the city considerably richer in her yearly revenue. The three other squares have returned in this manner,' and why should not this one? The matter'has again been brought be fore the "Fathers," and this time it is to be hoped with some show of action. At the last meeting of Councils a committee was appointed to consider and report as soon as possible, a plan for thei improve ment. Fortunately the committee is composed of some of the most progres sive and energetic business men of the body, and the resut ofeir delibera tions will doubtless l ead lead t ome dottlidve" measures being taken to beautify and I render profitable theuneightly waste. A meeting of the \ committee was held last night, and although we have not been officially informedof any au thorized plan, yet the, e seems to be one, or rather-the germ of one, which will re ceive the sanction of the committee and be recommended to Councils. It con templates the erection of a block of stores, three or four stories in bight, ex tending around the four sides of the square, and of a sufficient depth to form ample store-rooms. The central portion of the second and third stories may be built as a public hall, entrance to it be ing upon each of the four aides, by the ascent of broad flights of stairs, from the several streets, The plan may be somewhat modified so that part of the structure can be used to accommo date the wants of the market folks, and the rest be rented out as store rooms and offices, but either way it could hard ly fail to be an exceedingly remunera tive investment. Judging from the man ner in which the places in the market house now built were taken up, it is cal culated that the premium alone for the places in the new building would amount to nearly half the oust of its construction, while the yearly rental would reimburse in one year the expense incurred. These estimates may be somewhat extravagant, but they are not to far above the mark as they at first glance may seem, at least some of the shrewdest business men' and - financiers in the city seem to think. The new building, it is thought, can be erected in a plain but neat and substan tial manner, of brick, for one hundred thousand dollars. Of course this is only the general idea of the plan, but it seems evident, treat the manner in which the affair is being oonducted, that something will be done this time. The Committee can only recommend, which in quite certain to be done. It is the province of Councils to direct, which now seems one of the certainties. A Villainous Carpet Bagger. Yesterday afternoon a meg German ti c girl arrived in Pi burgh from her native land, In quest f a brother-in-law. She stopped at a boar ng house to which place she had been dir ted to get dinner. At the table, eating wi h her, was a man who soon Introduced mall, and finally learned her ,destinati c r Her brother in-law, he said, reside irt Allegheny, he know him and would conduct her to his at home. Rejoiced being released, as she supposed fr m any further trouble, she accepted the kind strati stranger's offer, and pr eeded with him to the depot for her gage, only a ca.- pet sack, but which ntained the ma jority of her earthly 'd our includ ing eighty dollars gold. The two started away from th depot chatting pleasantly, and bad pniceeded but about four or fi ve squares wen the stranger. carrying the carpet big disappeared in an alley and was lost to view. His icom panion waited some ime for hut reap pearance, but fi nally to up the search and endeavored to find her relative her self, in which she nufo tunately proved unsuccessful. Alone in a strange city, in a strange land, and among a people who for the most part were of a different nature to her. it is no wonder she sat down and gave vent to her feelings in a passionate flood of tears. In this distressed condition she was discovered by one of the kind hearted countryman who benevolently offered her a temporary home. The name of her-brother-In-law is Tames Har ris, who resides, she says, according to her directions. somewhere in Allegheny city. If this paragraph should meet his eye be ow nod a clue to his -relative by calling at thit Allegheny Mayor's office. South Pittobtu•gh Council.

OPERA HOUSE.—Humpty Dumpty, the grand and amusing fiantomlme, was pre- Bented for the first time last night before a Pittsburgh audience—and such an au_ dience it was too I Every seat from pit to dome was occupied and the aisles and lobbies were uncomfortably crowded. The utmost satisfaction was manifested by everybody present, and an almost continual roar of applause and burst of ringing laughter assured the success of the piece. The ballet was no secondary part of the attraction, as it was presented in a manner much less objectionable than we ever, before noticed. Grace, youth. end beauty rather than muscular development appear to have been there quirements in making up the troupe. The pantamime abounds in rich and en joyable points, - and the veriest-.cynic could not refrain from laughing himself almost to ' death If present at, the entertainment. To-morrow afternoon Humpty Dumpty will be offered for la dies and the , little folks. To-night it will again be presented. Do not fail to put in an appearance while it retains possession of the boards at the Opera House. Tan ACADBMT.—On our seventh page we publish the programme for the read ing entertainment to be furnished our lecture-going community by the distin guished actress laiss,Augusta L. Dargon. It will be observed that It embraces pleaiing gems of literature and some of the most difficult to render, but we are confident the gifted lady will prove equal to the Leek. she has assigned herself. The reedit*, will take place on Thursday night, and there will be no reserved seats. PITTSBURGH THEATRE.—The Old The= etre was crowded again last night. The attractions are greater than the public can withstand, and the entertainments are of a highly , satisfactory character, ,hence the crowded houses. Homicide at stenbenville.

The art and science of medicine is divided into several special departments, each having their standard principles, which form the batds for their scientific elucidations. . Every particular ,part or the human body has had itS average natural proper ties, constittients, quantities, dEr», re dnced upon scientific principles to a standard of nearly definite proportions in health., This serves for , the more correct eluci dation of disease ;by comparison and measurement of the deviations from the healthy standard. Thus the average proportionate constituents of the blood in health. being reduced to a standard, any considerable deviation from this standard quality a ; of the blood is disease. ,-, The same in t e urinary excretion; the average natur proportionate constitu ents of the urine in health form the standard. any considerable deviation froni which basii; - either in proportion or constituent% exhibits disease. This latter id a practical fact which we are daily demonstrating at our office, To. 182 Grant street; and 'which any one can have tested eto their, entire satisfac tion, by sending a standard specimen (morning urine) 'for scientific analysis and examination. If we fail to detect the "morbid condi tions," if any; or to determine the nature of the disease, or the organs affected, as the lungs, liver, stomach, brain, kidneys, womb, &c., there shall be no charge Made: Bestir° to give the age of the patient atthe same time; as the urine varies in proportionate constituents in the differ entagturof'infiinc3i, Childhood, manhood and old age. The name and residence of each patient should be given also, in order 'to avoid confusion of cases where medicines are taken. 1. Or nuns, AIL 1). lat'Ame time since we mentioned the • cumatance of a rather serious charge having been made before snap town Al derman against a gay dusky Lothario, by a young.whito girl employed' as cham bermaid at the Union Depot Hotel. The matterwas compromised at the time, and the charge - withdrawn. Since then a wedding has taken' place between the parties, but how, or when, or where, is one of the mysteries. The only really tangible:fact, known is the announcement, made yesterday, by the parties interested that the mysterious ceremony had been performed .some time since—aix months, according to thlibridel, and six weeks, according to the groom. That they have, however, started out in the voyage of life tegedier seems to be one of the certainties r as much so as the fact that when the announcement was made it had the effect of. procuring for them both a summary dismissal from employ ment. And so the matter rests at pre& ent. igAlrkwell that ends well." Monday morning about eight o'clock Mrs. Eminerson died vary suddenly ot. the St. Charles Hotel, in this city. She , had been stopping at the hotel fbr somo time, with her husband, Mr. R. H. Em meson, oitmercbant, and two children.

Mr. Emmerson is" from Massachusetts, and Mrs. E. from Troy, N. Y. The body of Mrs. E. will be taken to her friends in New York. Mr. E. is left with two little girls aged res pectively two and four years. Yesterday morning about three o'clock one of the Allegheny night watchmen, while passing in the • vicinity of Beaver street and North alley, Second ward, ob served a man in the cellar of-a dwelling industriously endeavoring to effect an entrance to the house. Finding himself noticed, the burglar quit work, and .scrabling out of his subterranean guar - Am mode away as _fast as a pair of ex ceedingly nimble feet could carry him, far out distancing the guardian of the law, who attempted his arrest. Saban -guent investigation made the fact evi -tient that the fellow had just commenced work when discovered, and. come quentlyi. had made no heldway. The watchman could not identify him again.
