Row beautiful hi the three-cornered
pig park in front of the Penitentiary;
Row charming it is to have the budding
beauties of the rejulenating Common,
grounds enhanced by the numerous ac
tive inhabitants of t at portion of the
Commons now used als a pig pen by the
Penitentiary! AR nat ure is lovely and
therefore these po rkers must be, but
their surroundings of and mire not
being nature unadorned, may safely be
accused of lack of the se charms which
attract the eye or de ght the nasal or
gan.. Many months ago we had a little
article describing this pig park and
kindly suggesting that the Mayor should
go and admire Its beauties, but the en
vious owners took the - pigs away and
thus deVrived His Honor of the pleasure
we had offered him, but which he can
now enjoy, as the park is once more in
,full operation, and the active denizens
aie as fascinating now as they were of
yore.
Serious Accident
A young man by the name of Barr, re
siding on Crawford street, met with a
serious accident Sunday evening at or
near the Smithfield Methodist Episcopal
Church. It appears that he had a re
volver with him. which, on leaving the
church, he had taken out of his pocket
for some purpose, and was in the act of
replacing when it was discharged, the
contents entering his thigh and passing
down the leg to the ankle joint, where
the ball lodged. He was removed to his
residence and medical attendance sum
moned.
Fire at Mansfield
At three o'clock, Sunday morning, a
two story brick building, owned and .oc
cnpied as a grocery and provision store
by Mr. Joseph K. Cubbage, caught tire,
and was entirely consumed, with its con
tents. Mr.-Cabbage was sleeping in 'the
second story, and awoke from the smell
of smoke. He went down stairs and found
the store room In flames. ,He narrowly
escaped with his life, obtaining egress by
way of a cellar window. He was slightly
scorched and burned. HIS loss in goods
and money will amount to about 5.5.000.
All his books were burned. The fire re
sulted, it is thought. from an accident.
Sunday Liquor Selling Case.
Mrs. Jane Moßratney appeared before
Alderman Bailie, yesterday, and made
information against "Reddy" Henderson
for selling liquor on Sunday. The pros
ecutrix alleges her son, a youth about
twenty-two years of age, came home
under the influence of liquor last Sunday,
and when questioned, stated he had pro
cured the spirits at the establishment of
Henderson, located in the basement of
the Grant House, Federal street, Alle
gheny. It is but proper to state that the
saloon has no further connection with
and is not under the control of the pro
prietor of the hotel. The prosecntrix also
lodged a civil snit against Henderson for
the penalty of fifty dollars for violating
the Sunday liquor law. Warrant issued.
An Old Offender.
The man convicted in the Quarter Ses
stone Court, yesterday, on a charge of
larceny, under the name of William How
ard, and sentenced to imprisonment for
two years In the Western Penitentiary,
is, it appears, an old offender, and has
served a tertn•in the institution to which
he was sentenced yesterday. He is no
other than John Mulligan, a notorious
thief and burglar, and was sentenced to
the New York State Prison fur a term of
seven years, but managed to escape after
an imprilionment of ten months. This
fact, we presume, was not known to the
Court at the time sentence was pronoun.

THE PIILITT.
Extracts from a Sermon Preached In the
First Mettio - ist Church. Allegheny,
Sunday Morning, by the Rev. Isaac
Aiken.
The announcement that the Rev. Isaac
Aiken would occupy the pulpit, attracted
to the First Methodist Church, Alle
gheny a large and appreciative audience,
Sundfcy morning. For : some time
past the reverend gentleman has not
been engaged in any pulpit ministrations,
but hi 6 last effort Sunday fully sustained
1
his high reputation, and was a gratifying
evidence that in this respect he -had lost
none lof his former power. The dis•
course, eloquent, argumentative, and
fervid, occupied over an hour in its de
delivery, and commanded from all the
closest attention throughout. We regret
that we have not room for more than the
following brief synopsis, which, - how;
ever, will serve to convey some idea of
its superior character. He read as a text
the wordS:
"F.,r He hath made Him to be sin for us
who knew no sin; that we might be made
the righteousness of God in Him.. We
then, as workers together with him, be
seech you also that ye receive not the
grace Of God in vain."-2 Corinthians,
5: 21. and 6: 1.
Andthenwent on to say •
It is a m terious law of nature that all
3, 1
created life s sustained by death. The
life which survives is nourished by the
life which is departing., The mineral
substances of the earth must decay before
we have the soil to produce food. The
seed cast into the soil must decay before
we ; have the fruit. The fruit must be
desroyed for the sustenance of animal
life. One class of animals must die that
another may live. This is true of insect
life,,even though so Minute as to be in
visible to the naked eye, and sQapheine
ral, as to rejoice in the gift of life through
a single day. It is true of the fish inhab
iting all waters. It is. true of the birds
that ily through the heavens. It is true
of the beasts, whether wild in the forest,
or domesticated, obediently serving the
interests of man. Man himself acts un
der thielaw eyery time he sits down to a
table covered with vegetable and animal
food. The Divine man, Jesus of Naza
reth, bowed to this law—died, that he
might be the life of the world. ,
The submission of the Divine man to
this mysterious law of the universe is
the subject of the text.
The sintes2 one was made sin for us.
Our author does not mean that he was
made the act of sin. This is impossible.
First from the testimony of;the friends of
Jesus, who lived with him. St. John
says that no one could "accuse him of
sin." St. Paul says "he knew no sin."
St. Peter says "he did no sin, neither was
guile found in his mouth." This is uni
versal among his cotemporaries. Even
so speak his enemies. Jesus could stand
up anywhere, in or out ofJerusalem, and
challenge His enemies with "which of
you accuseth me of sin?" Pilate, who
gave-sentence that the innocent one
should die as a malefactor on the cross,
confessed that he "found no evii_in
him." Anit Judas, after 'the betrayal,
cried mit, 4, 1 have betrayed innocent
blood." 'And Jesus made this claim for
himself. 1 ..
He was no' boaster. Yet listen to him.
Speaking of his inner nature, he says
"the.Princei of this world cometh and
findeth nothing in me." He said he
always did what pleased God, his Father.
He held himself up as a model for all
men, saying "follow me." And he
passed through the same temptations as
we, "yet-without fain:"
Our author in the text does mean, that
the sinless Divine man was treated,
when on earth, as though he bad been a
sinner. Jesus was without sin, but not
without suffering. Can we solve this
problem? Can we sound this depth? Can
we fathom this Mystery? Jesus bowed to
the operation of a COM mon law. innocent. 1
He suffered with and for the guilty. How? 1
Some think be endured the wrath of I
God, . Never. The sense of guilt .neser
pierced his soul. There are two kinds of
punishment on earth. First that follow
tug transgression of law innocently.
Walk in the dark night, by the edge 0(1
the precipice, and stumble, and you are I
mangled to death. Or step accidentally 1
over the bank of the river, and you are
drowned. Or approach the whistling
machinery, until. it embraces you, and
you are crushed. Or tread on the ser
pent, and you die of its envenomed
fang. Here is violation of laiv, sin
lets, yet the penalty is swift and
fearful. TheMthere is the punishment
following wilful disobedience to law.
'This is actual moral guilt. Now the dif
ference between these two kinds of pun
ishment is very great. The one is the
indignation of God; the other his favor.
Two men suffer poverty. One inherited
his poverty. Though it is an evil, It
brings no remorse, no oppressing sense
of God's indignation. Tne other man
was born rich, and by prodigality has
brought himself to poverty. His pover
ty, as an evil, is reinforced by remorse.
The divine indignation oppresses his
soul. So all through society. Apply,
this to the life of Jestis. The first suffer
iric He endured; the second, never. He
simply, in trying to save humanity, came
in contact with the whirling passions of
evil men, and was crushed. He died,
not a victim of the wrath of God, Mit a
victim of the wrath of man. ,
* .Ihe object contemplated was that the sin
ful might be made righteous; That we might
be made the righteousness of God in
Him. What is the righteousness of God?
Innocence, purity, rectitude. By Jesus
human'nature attains to this. We attain
to innocence. Of innocence there are
two kinds. The first is the innocence of
I
those who have never Sinned. In the
infinite possibilities of the universe, we
rejoice that there are finch, though not In
this province of God's enipire, when we
except the Divine Mati land little chil
dren. In remote proyinces of tile
empire I of God, we are told there
are innocent responsible subjects of
moral government. ' The second kind
of innocence is in those who have sinned,
and have been forgiven. This is of the
earth. This God gives those who ask for
it, through Jesus. Do you ask me how
it comes to us through .lefius, who suffer
ed for usi I speculate not, but accept it
as a great fact, under the', common law,
that all good comes to humanity through
suffering. Our life comes to us through
maternal agonies. Our bread comes to
us by herd struggles, ' wringing the
sweat from 'our face. Every item of
knowledge we have, has been
wrung front the secrets of nature.
So when — we accept the spirit of
the self-sacrificing Jesus, to be animated
by it, God accepts, us in Jesus.
as though we had not sinned in the past.
In Jesus we attain to purity. Of purity
there are two kinds. There is an unde
rived purity. This belongs to the nn
fallen sons of God. There is a derived
purity. This belongs to the fallen, who
have risen again. The hitter fountain
has been sweetened. The frozen heart
has been thawed. 'The stubborn has been
made 'yielding This is effected by the
Divine spirit illuminating, refining and
elevating the inneri:iature. By Jesus
we attain to rectitude of life.
But this is the righteousness of God
"in Jesus." What does this mean? God
does not see. a perfect righteousneSs in
any human being in any generation, only
as he looks on us , through Jesus. Let
me illustrate. Suppose you had cover
seen vegetable life except in a cellar,
TURSDAY. XtiNE 15,
where the rays of the sun, never bal on
the plant, you could have little idea of
the real possibilities. rif vegetable life.
Or suppose a person b:orn in winter, and
the winter to stretch out until, they
would reach manhood or woman
hood, they co'Ald scarcely have any
idea of the capabilities of vege
table life *under the genial rays
of spring arid summer sun. Or suppose
you had been raised in the Arctic regions,
where vegetation is seen only in the
moss, r.nd lichen and burr oak, you could
hive s poor idea 'of vegetation in the
tropics. But now let a gardener look on
that cellar plant, and he knows its possi
bilities: Or let one who had lived through
many summers look on that winter veg.
li
tation,and he knows what it will at siu
When the summer shall ret rn.
o'r let an inhabitant from he
tropics visit the arctic and he an
see much more in the burr oak, the moss.
the lichen, than the Esquimau' can. : lle
knows its possibilities. So is our u
manity. In our ignorance, sinfulness
and sufferings, we are but cellar plants,
winter'and: Arctic vegetation. But God
looks on Jesus, human, bone of our bone
and flesh of our flesh, and sees in Him a
perfect innocence, purity and rectitude,
and in us, partaking of the spirit of Je
sue, the possibilities of that same perfect
innocence, purity
,and- rectitude; and
thus are we "made the righteousness of
God in Him."
The accomplishment of thispurpose of
God, in the progress of man's life, is of vast
moment. The grace of God, in the vica
rious sacrifice of his son, lathe most won
derful of all wonderful ideas that can
awaken profound interest in the human
mind. Hate you pondered it patiently?
i i i
Have you analyzed it 9 Haveyou labored
to educate yourself up. to an apprecla
don of it In all, i greatness? Just
listen a moment. T is grace comes. to,
by the Son of God. Not an ordinaryl
- being. Not even one great- as Moses.
I
Not even an Angel. To these we ,would
do profound reverence 'as messengers
,from God. But a greater is here. The,
Son—the God-man himself. This is the
first idea in the greatness of God's grace
to us. Then the Son of God not only
came here on God's message to us, but in
delivering It he lost his life. He entered
Attie rebellious province of his Father's
pire, to, declare a universal am
nesty,
and He was taken as an 1
enemy and destroyed. . And all this ' VI
he did for avowed • enemies. Not for
friends, but for enemies. And this was
not by chance, so far as his knowledge ,
was concerned. He knew before he '
came how he would-be I treated, and yet , c ,
he hesitated not so great was love. Truly
this Is "grace." Shall it be received in it
vain ? Let as pray tied it may not. 0 ! c
will any one here received it in vain? ,
It is to be feared that some concern
themselves but little upon this question.
Do you ask me how it may be received
in vain. It Is in vain to all who are not
made the righteousnesEi of -God in
Jesus Christ. Have you - sought inno
cence before God through Jesus? Have
yOu sought purity of heart and life
through the truth and grace of Jesus?
Are you striving through Jesus to live a
life of rectitude? If so, the grace of God,
in the vicarious sacrifice of His Son, his

The Sunday Question.
At the regular meeting of the Sabbath
School Teachers' Union_ of Pittsburgh,
held last night, Mr. T. 11. Rabe, presi
ding, and. Mr. T. J. McKalip acting as
Secretary, the following preamble and
resolutions were unanimously adopted,
and ordered to be published in the city
papers and a copy to be furnished to the
Mayor
WHEREAS, His Honor, Jared M. Brush,
has made such fouls efforts to prevent
the open violation of the Sabbath; and to
suppress vice and immorality, and
WHEREAS, it is but just that he should
feel that he has the sympathy and sn p
port of the Sabbath loving portion of the
community, and
WHEREAS, WS, as a body of Sabbath
School mewoers, deem it prudent to ex
press ourselves in favor of such a reform,
therefore.
' Resolved, That this Sabbath School
1 Teachers' Union. composed of the Re- 1
formed and United Presbyterian
Churches of this city, extend to His
Honor our kindest regards and sympa
thy, and pledge him our moral support
in every effort ho may make in that di.
i
recti n. .
R olved, 2d. That we earnestly ' re
clues our neVapapers, which are gener-•
ally n the side of morality and good
orde 1 , to advocate the sancity and per
petual obligation of the Sabbath; and
such as do shall have our hearty ap
proval.
ReSolved, 3d. That we respectfully re
quest His Honor, the Mayor, to use all
the influence in his power to prevent the
celebration of the Fourth of July on \ the
'Sabbath, and in so doing will have our
hearty approval.
There are many circumstances in life
which havie the effect of inspiring men
with a disgust of this wicked world and
all its glittering vanities. One such cir
cumstance, taking the form of an over
dose 13( lightning whisky,-was encoun
tered by a melancholy individual who
appeared at the Allegheny Mayor's office
yesterday morning. He had uecome, he
laid, tired of the fleeting, . bustling
activities and mockery of the
outer world and desired to withdraw
into solitude, to him more congenial.
With ,tears coursing down his bronzed
countenance, he besought one of the “sen
-tinels of justice" to use his official in
fluence in securing him a position of re
tirement among the gentlemen of leisure,
who are benevolently provided with
food, raiment and lodgings in the im
posing stone mansion on Ohio street,
which is one of the peculiar in
stitutions, sustained by the fostering care
of the State. The obliging official thus
14 4 40.ri
affectingly appealed to, regretted hi In
ability 'to comply with the moving a
quest, but.dlrected the applicant to to e
time for deliberate reflection, which ad
vice was. properly heeded by the stu
diously inclined personage, who wan

went his way. . •

A party of roughs and blackguards
visited the Iron City Park yesterday for
the purpose of disturbing and breaking
up a pic-nio which was being held there
by the Turners. Owing to the presence
of several of the. Mayor's officers they
were deterred from making any demon
stration until late in,the evening, when
the festivities were about drawing•to a
close. \ A number of them at that time
stationed themselves atthe gate on But
ler street, and when a party of the
Turners were coming out made an as
sault upon them. The Turners resisted,
and in a short time were reinforced by a
number of their friends, which gave
them the odds over their assailants, and
taking advantage of this circumstance
they gave the "roughs" a' severe , body
beating, which they richly deserved.
Clubs and stones were used freely, but
the Germans stood up Manfully to their
work and routed the blackguards. Sev
eral of the scoundrels received sore
heads, but none of them, so far as we
could learn, were seriously injured.

It seems to "be a matter of wonder ttli
manyipersons, mad even to some medical
men, ho,w anything like a correct diag.
noels Of diseases can be made - from ex
aminatitn of the urine.
This )
ouder ceases with the latter,
howeyer, as soon as they learn the fun
damental principles upon which these_
examinations are based, and become
practically acquainted with the varied
...lhemicel constituents and characteristic
appearances of that fluid as voided in
the different classes of disease.
When any organ or part of the body
bee/aches deceased it gives out more than
its accustomed share of-particles from
that part. These separated particles are
carried out of the body through the
mediiim of the kidneys, and may by
'chemical analysis and microscopic exam
inatien be definitely ascribed to the pre
cise hocality whence they are derived.
ThOse are practical facts; not merely of
value in ordinary cases alone, but amen
tide men, Todd, Bennet, Queckot, and
others, have placed on record numerous
instances wherein the correct diagnosis
in obscure cases depended so1ely• upon
these kind of investigations.
We ourselves, during an experience of
twenty years' -practice, havo had many
indiYidual cases wherein the examina
tion of the urinary secretion alone re
vealed the true nature of the disease, af
ter all the other well known methods of
the very best physicians of the country
had sianally failed.
When we propose to detect 'diseases

being prepared, as we are at our office,
No. 132 Grant street, Pittsburgh, with
all the chemical and microscopic appara
tus for testing it in' the most scientific
manner,. we - base our proposition, not
upon- clairvoyance, spiritualism, liocus
peens, or legerdemain, but upon the in
contkoyertible- facts, and make our de
ductions in accordance with the immuta
ble laws of science.
Indeed, it is these facts alone that give
to our peculiar system its true value, that
stanips it as a science. For that only is
scientific which is based upon ineontro
9rtible facts. L. OLDSECtE, bl. D.,

Cere jv ny Without Ceremony.
Yester • y, with that peculiar delight
, hiCh all experience on receiving card
ivies to a friend's wedding, we broke
pen the seal of a delicately tinted en
velope -hearing our address and having
in ~ heautifal ITr wrought monogramistic
characters, the letters G. L. gracefully
entwined into each other. Imagine our
hearty laugh on reading the following,
in exquisite engraving, cut in "matri
monial" style, on a saucy looking card,
"Gray & Logan At Home. You are in
vited to call without Ceremony and in
speet the finest assortment of Med and
Boys Clothing west of New York, No. 47
Sixth, street, late St. Clair." We did
call and found that all the card stated
wad true. The firm have just opened a
beautiful stock of boys and youths cloth
ingtwhicb will prove highly attractive to
out ,readers as well as the young folks.
So without ceremony we invite, our
friends to call at Messrs. Gray & Logan's
well appointed salesrooms, and inspect
the goods , ,, wfether they receive the
artistic card of invitation or not.
The Munson Lightning Rod.
Ms , ,SBACHESETTS AGnicVL COLLEGE,
AMHERST, MASS., Maich 4,188 ti.
GONTLEMEN: I regard the Munson
Copper Tubular Lightning Rod superior
to ianything before the public. It is a
be conductor, and less liable to fail
fro, any cause to carry safely to the
each an electric discharge than an iron
ro six times its size. It is firmly united
so as to form a cont inuous conductor, and
frOna its lightness and pliability is, when
fastened to building+, much lees likely
to break the insulators and get out of
place than a heavy rod. By order of our
Ekiard, the Munson Rod has been at
ta4hed to the six buildings of the State
Agricultural College.
