Generous 'lDeed.--WS have heretofers
spoken of the tirftierY aled'imol° ezar"
tiona of Mr. T. Brodie in reoov,srmg
bodY of ihe unfortunate Coven from
the ruins of Finch's distillery. Yester
day Mr. Brodie was wide the recipient
of one hundred dollars from hia em
ployer, Mr. Finch, as a slight token of
the estimation in which be was regarded
for his humane and praise-worthy con
duct.
More alit—Carter Moore and John
Harris, colored, encountered each other
on Logan street, Sunday evening. The
shock was quite violent, causing. Carter
to measure his length on the side walk
in a very undignified manner. Yester
day morning, as a sequel to the aftair, an
information was made before Alderman
Butler, in which Moore appeared as
plaintiff and Harris as defendant. Alder
man Butler's police are anxious to see
Harris.
Too Much W hisky,—Thomas Modena
was picked up in the Diamond, yester-
day about eleven o'clock, by officer
Moore and taken to the lockup. He had
taken too much whisky aboard, and it
appears had fallen and struck his head
against the curb stone and cut Sr severe
gash above the right eye. Dr. McCook
was summoned and dressed the wound.
which, although a fearful one, was not of
a serious nature, as the bone Was nbefrao
twit& .
A Engl.—The day of grace extended to
teamsters and others required to take
out a vehicle license, having expired on
Saturday, Chief of Police Hague notified
the officers to arrest all persons viola
ting tbe law, and bring them to' the May
or's office, and the result was a regular
jam at the Mayor's office. Between forty
and fifty persons were arrested, but in
no case, we believe, was the fine imposed.
The offender was required to nay the of
ficer's cost and take out the license.
T. B. Wakefield, Esq., a gentleman
from Montgomery, Alabama, and con
nected with the Daily Mail of that city,
is now in Rittsburgh as agent for the Al
abama Manual and Statistical Register, a
valuable work full of information con
cerning the condition and resources of
Alabama. Mr. Wakefield proposes call
ing personally, we believe, upon our citi
zens, to whose attention we recommend
his book, of which we speak in another
column.
Bev°lyer Stolen.—Mr. Jordon, a gun
smith on Fifth avenue, in the Sixth ward.
came to the Mayor's office yesterday and
stated that a revolver had been stolen
from his shop. It appears that two men
called to get a gun which had been left
at the shop for repairs, and immediately
after they left he missed a revolver which
had beea lying on the counter. He did
not knowthe names or the persons whom
he suspected of stealing it, nor where
they reside.
Sunday L!quor Cases.—Michael Swaney
and John McDonald were charged be
imp the Mayor. yesterday, with soiling
liquor on Sunday. The action was
brought to recover the penalty of fifty
dollars. The accused will have a hear
ing' at two o'clock to-day.
The odium which originally attached
to the person who informed on these
violators of law is fast giving way. aud,
instead, attaches to the man Who .sells
the liquor.
Ferocious bog.--Thomas Irvin made in
formation before Justice Ammon of East
Birmingham. yesterday,fflharging Nicho
las Schwartz with keeping a ferocious
dog. The accused rest ses in Ormsby
Borough and the prosecutor alleges that
while passing along the street yesterday
morning, defendants dog came out on
the sidewalk and bit him on the leg,
tearing his pants and lacerating the flesh.
He further alleges that the dog is a
ferocious brute and that defendant
knows him to be so. A warrant was
issued for Schwartz
Aggravated Assault and Battery.
John Meyer made information before.
Justice Ammon, of East Birmingham,
yesterday morning, charging George
Smith, John Smith, David Franz, Anton
Baldorf and Anton Hoffman, with aggra
vated assault and battery. He alleges
that the accused came to his house, in
Lower St. Clair township, Saturday
night, and called him out. Not know
ing what they wanted he went out to see,
when, without any provocation on his
part, they attacked and beat him In a
shameful manner. His injuries although
severe are not of a serious nature. A
warrant was issued for the arrest of the
accused.
The authorities of Allegheny have re
cently commissioned parties to remove
all the dead animals, otfll, &c., which
may hereafter collect in the streets of
the city. Persona knowing of tne exist
ence of these nuisances should leave a
notification of the same at the . Mayor's
office, which will receive prompt atten
tion. The plan is a good one, and, be
sides costing nothing in being carried
out, will undonetedly work much better
than the system heretofore in force,
which, practically',. was of very little
benefit. The Allegheny authorities seem
to be wide awake in regard to sanitary
' 1 regulations. •
On Sunday night the glass in the large
and elegant front window of the Third
Presbyterian Church, Sixth avenue, was
b 9 roken In several places by some malio 7
ions scoundrel, who threw a number of
stones through . it, and unfortunately
escaped detection. The perpetrator of
such a dastardly act certainly needs a
little discipline, which he seems in a fair
way of getting—of that healthful kind
only derived from solitude, a Bight diet
of bread and water and exhlllarating
'exercises with the ball and chain ap•
pendages in the Institution, especially
Prepared for such as he, over the river.
It IN to be hoped he will yet be ferreted
out and put through a proper course.
Yesterday afternoon, three young mon,
giving their names ae Barclay, Kennedy,
and Dunn, stopped at The tavern of
George Blentz, in Pleasant Valley, Sec
ond ward, Allegheny. and succeeded'ln
a few minutes in creating a distur
bance with the proprietor. They
were ordered out of the establish
ment, but instead of obeying the
polite invitation, attacked Mr: Slentz.
it is said, beating him over the head
with a chair and otherwise severely
abusing him. They were finally ex
pelled, and next turned their attention
to the windows. Fortunately, they had
not long amused themselves In this
manner when a , couple of polic emen ,
happening to arrive in the vicinity, took
them in custody. They were locked np
for a hearing this morning. The Injuries
of Mr. Shiraz are of a quite'serious char
acter. His head is cut In several places,
and the bruises on veriest parts of his
body atteet very forciblythe denseness of
the ettnek. Dr. Hamilton rendered him
medical emdmance. . • •

IntereWng Case.
A suit is now pending in the Supreme
Court Circuit of New York C ity, In
which Mr. Cyrus R. McCormic k sues the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company for the
recovery of /12,000. tho value of a lot of
baggage destroyed by fire. The baggage,
it seems, was brought to the Company's
depot, in Philadelphia, March 11th, 1862,
for shipment West. but a dispute arose
in regard to the freights, and McCormick
concluded not to send it. By this time,
however, it had been placed aboard the
train, which started immediately and
conveyed it to Pittsburgh. It Iwas here
stored in the depot of the Pittsburgh,
Port Wayne and Chicago Railroad Com
pany, and destroyed by the burning of
the building. The baggage consisted of
anumber of trunks lilted with jewelry,
and other valuables.
Since writing the above, we learn by
telegraph that the suit has been decided,
the jury returning a verdict 0f 1 110,660 in
favor of the plaintiff, to which the
Court subsequently allowed in addition
1300, making the total amount of dam
aes obtained 1511,160.
Lai Delegation.
Active preparations are in progress
among the congregatiOns of the various
Methodist Episcopal churches in the
vicinity to take the vote on the question
of lay delegation, as' prescribed by the
General Conference at its last session in
Chicago. There is no stated day for the
vote, each congregation having authority
to arrange this matter independent of
others, with the single restriction that it
be taken during the month of June,
1889. The question is one which has
long agitated the denomination, but
heretofore, as was evidenced by a
former vote, a large majority have
been opposed to the change, which, if
made, vflil almost revolutionize the
church government. Of late years, how
ever, it has gained many friends, and as
opinions at presents tand the chances See
to be decidedly against Its m
opponents.
A.public meeting in reference to the mat
ter will be held next. Monday evening in
the Smithfield M. E. Church, at which
Bishops Simpson and Kingsley are ex
pected to deliver addresses.,Two such
distinguished speakers willudonbtedly
attract a large audience and make the
meeting one of unusual interest. •

aninPropltiotte, hour, committed a
,
mis
demeanor, for which she was ruthlessly
seized and condemned to spend a num
her, of days, behind the iron bars, and
surrounded by the solid masonry of
Warden Scandrett's hospitable mansion.
. ,
Just Previous' to bidding a dieu fo r a time
to the vain world, she called her faithful
- friend Clemnets, alias:John Richards, to
her side, and with feminine confidence
entrusted to his care the keys to her
domicile and her trunk, containing all
the valuables in dress, dm., which she
could call her own, receiving in retnrn
his promise that for her sake all should
be carefully guarded and returned at the
proper time. This matter being satis
factorily adjusted, she retired to „the
1 quarters assigned her,while John wedded
his way to other scenes, musing doubt
less on the strange mutations of life.
His reflections seemed, however, to have
taken a practical turn, for in a few hours
he sought the society of another fe
male friend, of which he seems to
have many, slid in a short time
succeeded in forgetting the sorrows of
his former Dulcinea. Indeed it,would
seem that the influence of the latter
friend, Mary Malone, was of such a char
acter that very soon he forgot his promise
and delivered to her the key which pro
vided access to the treasures placed in his
care. Thus affairs remained until yes-
L
terdav morning, when John- and Mary
happenadthemse yea to forget the law,
and were sent to the Josephine in her
solitude. The quick ayes of this female
were not long In discovering in the
gorOotis apparel In which her rival
was arrayed, a close similarity to that
entrusted to the care of her admirer,
John. Further investigation revealed
the fact that the articles were the same.
and the treachery of John was thus de
veloped. Aggrieved and indignant,
Josephine at first refused to be comforted
at this betrayal of her: confidence, but
finally composed herself for revenge and
sumoning that obliging official, Alder
man Donaldson, to her cell, she made in
formation against the twain for larceny,
the estimated value of the goods be'ng
SW. Th'e Alderman after hearing state
ments from all the parties interested,
lodged commitments against John and
Mary, which will necessitate their re
maining under Warden Scandrett's care
until the next term of Court. So Joeeph
ine had her revenge.

Tug RENEGADE OY TILE POTOMAC:-
The great succens which attended the
representations of this patriotic drama
last week has induced the Committee
having the matter in charge to reproduce
it, at the Academy of fdusio, on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday evenings: An
opportunity is thus offered for all who
were disappointed heretofore, to attend,
and. aside from spending an _enjoyable
evening, to lend aid to a noble and char
nail° o tame.
ACADEMY on Mustc.=-To.night Ole
801 l will give one of his marvelous en
tertainments at the Academy of Music.
Ills arrantements are such that he can
remain in the city but aufilcient time lor
the two entertainments. Those of our
readers who failed to hear him on the:
occasion of his former visit, should make,
It a point to attend either tonight or to-,
morrow night..., Those who did hear hlm
will need no second invitation. The
price of tickets has been fixed at one dol-1

Ma. ;Eames: The indications of tht
last lunar month were as correct as could
be desired. It was stated there would be
rain enough to germinate the seeds; that!
the inclinations were to be dry and mi
pleasant lunar month, which proved so:
The record from April 13th to May Ilth;
shows fourteen vartable and cloudy, ten
of rain, one of snow, fifteen of sunshine
and six frost days, and two thunder
showers. Daily average of thermometer,
fifty-four degrees. River seven feet, Rain,
gauge out of order. no report. ,
Indications: From 11th of May to 9th
of June show a dark, wet month;
twenty-one cloudy and variable, seven
teen rain, 'eight clear sunshine days, prq
bably two or three frosts—that depends
on the continuance of a long northeaster
east wind. Rein storms if not severe
are useful to thin out the super
abundant blossoms, also as The cause Of
generating more rain, of which it is but
seldom wo get too much in May or June.
The season so far is the most promiiing
of any we have noticed for years. There
is but one drawback—the soil was net
frozen in the Winter so deep nor so hard
as usnal; hard freezing renders it mellow
and more productive when sullicientlY
wet. The most dangerous time fin osts
is from the 15th to Sist of May. ..„Tt is
most' likely we shall have abundance'
of thunder showers between the prtidea
period and July. The present storm, by
a sudden clear off, threatens to 'be fol
lowed by a frost, but if thenightsremain
cloudy there is no danger, or if it passes
off by a south or southwest wind.

tiptoes of Practice.
The medical world has become divid
ed info too many different clique, isms
and Tiathies, that our peculiar system of
practice may need some extdanation, it
being the EcLacric connected, with
lguoscorts.
Oak remedies are principally vegeta
ble. 'discarding entirely the use of
Calomei or - Mercury in any fcnin,
lieving it to be a disease -creating of the
worst description.
We are also opposed to the use of gen
eral blood-letting in any case, believing
it to ;be injurious to the—constitution,
and oftentimes dangerous to life.
Our mode of detecting "chronic af
fectiOns" of the internal organs, is prin
cipally by an examination of the unne.
During the whole course of our study
and ipractice we have paid particular at
tention to this old "German Mode" of
detecting diseases, and we feel perfectly
satisfied that " there is co more certain
sigri offered in disease," than presented
in that secretion.
Therefore, we now more especially in
vitiall those laboring under lany ling
ering disease, that has not been cured,
because, perhaps, the complaint was not
properly understood, to send a vial of
theif urine for examination and have
the necessary medicines senethem. We
wish It distinctly understood that this
"special" invitation is given to those
who have sufficiently tried the remedies
of their family ph loin, and haue failed
to obtain relief at his hand.
This is our privilege and right as
physicians, and itja the right and privi
lege of the afflicted to obtain their pro
festionat advice and medicine - where
they choose. Our office and residence
is at No. 182 Grant street, Pittsburgh,
whore if any others choose to. apply we
will give them our best medical atten
tion, and will promise them relief in
every case where a reasonable hope can
be entertained.

officers Smith
fficers Smith and Lafferty, of the Alla-
Phony pollee, on suspicion of stealing
lumber from a board yard on River
avenue, had a hearing before Mayor
Drum, yesterday 'morning, whiglaresult
ed in their acquittal. The men - had been
observed about midnight tying a flat to
the shore, m which a number of boards
Were piled, and the officers suspecting
Something vrrong, arrested and conveyed
them to the lock-up. The defendants at
the hesrmg stated they ha been rowing
In a skiff near Herr's Islan , when they
; caught the flat afloat, and were trying,
Ito land it when arrested. The officers in
!making the arrest tired several snots at
!the parties, who it is stated attempted to
I escape by jumping into a ;kill' and row-:
ling eff, but were thus brought to:'
After they had been discharged by the.
Mayor, Benton Smith made informatinte
before Alderman McMaaters against
officers Smith and Lafferty for felonious
assault, alleging they'had fired several
shots at hint without warning or cause,
thereby endangering his life. Warrant
issued. •
Silk Dlantlea.
The'style of a garment is frequently of
more importance to its appearance than
the material of which it may be made.
Every day more attention is being
paid to style. A mantle being often the
prominent feature of a lady's dress, It is
especially commendable that it be se
lected with care and judgment, and, to
this end. it will be necessary to visit a
store where there is offered a large and
varied stock of fashionable goods. Now,
any lady about purchasing a silk mantle
cannot fail to get something handsome.
fresh and attractive at such a store as
that of Messrs. Bates & Bell, 12 Fifth
avenue. Messrs. Bates & Bell offer all
the fine styles of the season, and show
such a profusion of them to the pur
chaser that, perhaps, the only difficulty
experienced lies in determining as to
which is the most beautiful. It may be
said with the fullest confidence that
handsomer goods than these silk man
tles now displayed by the firm, or more
graceful styles, have never yet been
shown to our public. The prices are
always low and satisfactory.
The New York Tribune says the reason
why PLANTATION DITTEns are so gen
erally used . is owing to the fact that they
are always made up to the original stand
ard, and of pure material, let the price be
what it will. The Tribune just hits the
nail on the head, for PLANTamovr 111T

but the people are told *hat they are

A itvll of - ;Robert Hendli, "Di.'
Epstein, has entertained the Parisian
public at the Fantaisies Parisiennes, and
subsequently at the Cirque Napoleon, by
a series of legerdemain feats, amongst '
which was that of allowing himselfto be -
.shot at by any one who would load apis
tol and, fire at him. He offered the pistol
to two of the audience; 'who successively
refused the experiment: It was finally
accepted by a gentleman, who loaded and
handed the pistol to one of the Cirque
servants. The man, as desired, fired en
Dr. Epstein. He immediately exclaimed
"I am killed," and fell, blood pouring
from his mouth; a gaping wound in his
breast being visible to the audience as tie
lay on the ground. The ramrod, by in- ,
conceivable carelessness, had not been
withdraivn, and had consequently been
shot right through the unfortunate exhib
itor's breast. The rod was broken by the
shock, and so vi)lent was the ricochet
that a fragment bounded back and struck
the person who had involuntarily caused'
tlleaceident. The asdneis of the scene
was increased by the frightful grief of
two women, who, on seeing Dr. Epstein
fall, rose from their seats and 'rushed on
to the stage. They were the wife and
daughter of the victim, of whose life
there is little hope.
