After the examination, Lord Carrington was bound over to keep the peace, and h eld for trial on the second count., After these proceedings a disgraceful and remarka ble scene occurred in the bourtrroom. The partizans of Murray, who were present in gre'at 'force, attempted to seize a box of papers which had been stolen.

The increased attention given to the subject is not the. effect of the pressure of union leaders' on the legisla ture, but is due to the greater knowledge and wider experience •of the members. Although the bill is not lixely to pass, the principles it contains will form the basis for a gOvernment measure to he in troduced next session, which will repeal all laws making combinations illegal, relieve workmen from special penalties for Trades Union offences, and bring their funds within the provisions of the Friendly-Societies act.

Library and Wanel are now , under roof and will.be ready to receive I inmates about September. The Board of Directors deserve the thanks of the peo ple of Illegheny county for their untir ing zeal and energy in promulgating and advancing that praiseworthy and noble enterprise. When completed, it.will, in a great measure, compel those that lead an idle and unprofitel3le Imprisonment in oar county jail, at the expense of the tax payers,,,tti labor for their own support. as well asraciii• a revenue to the Institution. We can also bear qheerful , testimony to the very able manner in which the af fairs of the County Home are Conducted. The. Superintendent and his kind family, with the assj , :tants in' their dif ferent departments, deserve the highest praise from tax payers of the county for the faithful discharge of the . ditties{ posed upon them. Ttle selection of uch aid shows the good judgment of the Di rectors into whose hands the people have placed this important trust. 'Under the direction of a competent farmer, the work on the farm and in the garden is nearly all pdrformed by the inmates, which, to .a .;great extent, makes the Home self.supoorting. •In connection with this, the school; under its skillful teachers, is an interesting feature and merits, the highest commendation. - Our inspection of the Dixmont Hcepit al compels us -to say. that in our opinion the management , cannot ,be Improved upon. This immense structure is com plete in all its, parts, and" every depart ment is conducted with a Single eve to the comfort and welfare of its• unfortu nate. inmates. And yensp orderly that everything moves along like clock work, and each and every:room from end to end and from base to attic, is a model of neatness and cleanliness. The credit of this noble work is due to the efficient and able Superintendent and his kind lady, together with' his skillful and worthy assistants, all contributing tothe complete success of the institution. The House of Refuge was next visited, and, without any previous notice being pVen, we found the house throughout perfect order and exceedingly neat and clean. •Mr. Avery, the estimable Superintendent, accompardedus through the various rooms, workshops, schools, cells, Ate.
