Asti:inch interest was felt by oil opera, tprs in - the trial of Irvin A Bleakley, which-resulted hie non-suit on Tuesday, we give the following. synopsis of the case as it developed itself in court: In February, 1665, S. P. Irvin and .Ibhn W. Murphy entered into a contract With CoL James Bleakley, of Franklin, Pa., by theierms of which they agreed to buy a '.number of tracts of land in the lower I . part of that city. There 'were some dozen or so of the tracts of land, and the price to be paid was forty thousand dollars, of which $20,000 was paid down iecash, and the other $20, 000 was to , be paid in sixty daYii,•or as soon thereafter as the title papers should be perfected and tendered. When the sixty dayekran rout; Irvin failed to pay the odd $20,000, and from that time never either paid or offered to pay any portion of it.' inln April, ; Richmond fell, and immediately after, oil lend and the oil excitement fell too, the oil excitement being about as dead by the end of the year as was -se teas' on. _ Of bourse the land wasn't 'worth 4140,- 0000 r $20,000 either, and Mr. Irvin gave no sign, and apparently the whel4s agree -tnent was dead, dritilMay,lB6B, when he 'brought suit, to recover back the $20,000 he had paid, on the ground,that Colonel Bleakley had never given him a deed, find had exercised acts of ownership over the iand by laying an oil pipe through . the same. The result of a recovery would have been,. that Mr. Irvin would have been made entirely whole and had no loss whatever, and Colonel Bleakley would have had his land to him worth now about $4,000, and admitted to have been then worth $40,000. The. Court held that before Mr. Irvin - Could rescind the contract for. Colonel Bleakley's sins of omission,he must show that he had done everything that it Was Ms duty to do; and, as there mita not the slightest evidence that he ever tendered the balance of the purchase money, or showed any disposition whatever to corn. ply with ins part of, the contract, entered a non suit against him.

The Grand Inquest to whom this Hon orable * Court imparted certain matters pertaining to the well being of• the citi zens or this county, make the following presentment of the views entertained by said Grand Jury in reference to the pro posed celebration of our German citizens on Sabbath, the Fourth day of July. That the Grand Jury have's:tamed with regret that it is contemplated by a por tion of our German fellow citizens to cel ebrate the coming anniversary of kiner- Scan Independence on the Sabbath I day, \a thing that to our knowledge has'never Ibsen uone since tho formation of our 'government. We cannot believe that they will carry out such a programme, knowing as they mustthat by so doing they will insult the religious sense of all classes of our people. We sincerely trust that such demon stration will not be made, but that In celebrating, the day of the, nation's birth they will cOnform to the long established usages of the country of their adoption. Tbirerend InquestsF not sectarian in their views ; nor do , the feel a desire in any way to interfere with the legitimate exorable of. - any,of - the, rights of our fel loW citizens, but we do : nereby most sol emniy protest against such willful - and i flagrant desecration of this Sabbath day as referr,ed to i and•hope that the intended demonstration, will not-tie carried out. We heal reason to believe that iiiloh ily sign is entertained by a very sma 1 minority of our German population. a d we trust the Will promp3y frown down the projected violation of e religions feeling of the ehminunity; Ail of which is,respectfully submitted.

EDrroUs GAZETTE: It is with surprise that I see the press -of this city , "pitch ing into" , the Lidonuitiental Association for its ' , precipitancy'? in locating the Sol diers' Monument. It is a well known fact that for the past two years the very pipers that 'now cry "precipitancy," were-the on'e4that urged "immediate and 1 final action," and day after day called upon the members of the Association to act. Now, as to the meeting of Saturday. It was wel t -known.' not only to every -member of the Association, but to the public at large, that the question of lo cation would be settled on that day, and out of the twenty Commissioners, eleven appeared. lin the Chrodicie of Monday; the comments of the reporters,• are not. only insulting to tie ladies of the Asso eiation wiaq were present at the meeting, ,but, are entirely false, as there was noth lug "set :up, ' but all voted without 'any dictation and nom an honest con -Vietion that they were doing right. Now as to the location. I am, like many others, opposed to the Cemetery. Not that,l think "It will be buried from sight, or that the public cannot have' ac cess to it," but that I think a monument of this kind;- - Should be erected on some spot where, it' will be seen daily. Now as to Seminary, or as lt 4 1s 'better - known, "Hog flack tilt." I think the, same ar ments that apply to the Cemetery are I just as applicable to it. The Hill is aspot commanding enough,' but to - get to it would , require un amount of "muscle and wind'e. that few possess, and the smoke from the Many brick kilns at the base of the hill would speedily chenge the color of the' monument from its original brightness to the • dingy blackness of a moderrismoke.stadi. Now, Messrs. Edi tors, there is one way by which this mat ter can be settled V) the satisfaction of all. If lam not miStaken this charter authorizes tne County Cortimissioners to give any piece of ground belongitig•to the Comity to the Asspciation, and to experid a mina ' not exceed' g five 'thou sand 1 dollars towe r s the' erec ' tion of the ruonumel t. Now that they are going to an expeese of over one hundred thousand dollars in repairing the Court House, why not donate a spot at the corner of,Fiftb avenue and -Grant greet:, iu the Court EfOuse yard, and place the Monument there. The' position is commanding, and visited daily by ea:- ! Irma from every part of the county, as we'll as by strangers. From the street to the tap of the' Moeument would be over .one hundred feet, and the widows and orphans of our dead soldiers could - at all times have free access to it. ' ' • • I have no doubt the ladies of 4he Agee.- elation would freely reconsider their action, and unite on this location, which ',mild undoubtedly give satisfac tion to 'all HONESTY Malttioul Ml chief. : ' _____......-...—. 1 . Nessus. EDITORS: The citizens of Pitta, burgh are endeavoring to select a site suitable for a City Park. The location should boas near the centre of the city as possible. , ; Let me ,urge the removal of the Arsenal to the plade known as the Point, where they might occupy and beautify all the ground bounded 1 by Penn, Marbury. Duquesne ,and Water streete. Then let the city `' occupy ;the present Arsenal grounds for a City Park.: Shmild 41 this prove too great an eriter prise;why not possess, as city propeity,, all the .Fhint, making it an honor instead of a disgrace, and locate upon that beau ,tilui, `sightly .' place 'our Soldiers' Menu thus honoring old Fort Duquesne asell as every citizen and commlf r ee. It w i ll be no loss, but great gain, to ait thri more years to ootain and bee Lily su a location.

These exercises are something-new-here, and will doubtless, be very pleasant and interesting. They will consist chiefly of an oration, a Velem and n hi.tory and prophecy of the several members of the class, all more or less humorous. We understand, also, that there are some presentations tb take place which will add to the interest of the occasion. We advise-all who, can make it conve nient to be in attendance.
