Afterwards, it Is al leged, these statements were found to be untrue. An officer with a warrant went in search of Gallinger and found him, but allowed him to go out and seek for bail. He didn't come back and left no I trace of his whereabouts. • Alleged Larceny.—George Ewing, pro. prietor of a saloon on Penn street, yester day made information before the Mayor charging Eliza Jane Johns and another woman with larceny. -It appears that the women formerly were working for Mr. Ewing, and a few weeks since left sud denly without eying him any notice. A few days after they had taken their de parture one of the boarders missed a suit of clothes, which Mr. E. accuses the girls of stealing. The suspicion. may be well fotinded, but the clothing stolen being male attire, we are unable to discover what use they would put it to or what would induce them to steal it. Disorder's; House.--Joseph Wirt made information before the Mayor yesterday, charging Mrs. Pryor with keeping a die orderly house. The defendant and prose cutor, it appears, occupy apartments in one house on Fayette street, the former on the first floor and the latter on the second. and there being but one entrance to the building, it is necessary for the prosecu tor to ptuis through one room of the de. feudal:it's apartment to reach his own. He alleges that persons of ill repute visit the louse. A warrant was issued and Mrs. Pryor and a girl who, it appears occupies the house with her, were arrest:. ed and locked up for a hearing. United States Cotirt—Judge McCandless. The argument in the case of the own ers of the steamboat Bayard vs. the steam trig Coal Valley, commenced Tuesday, was resumed yesterday morning, but was not concluded.

The Court granted a jury trial on the issue, and the trial was fixed for tne third Monday of October next. Probable Fatal. Affair. Last evening David Ludwig and John Joy were arrested by officers Hazen and Beitler of the Mayor's police for felonious f emit and battery, upon Mr. McCombs. Mr. McComba is a young man who resides iu East Liberty. Yesterday he went out to gather blackberries in cou3PartY with soveral friends. Oa the farm of, ; John Joy, it• is alleged they wero shot at by the accused, and Mr. McGombs seriously, if Hot fatally, injured. The parties were taken before Deputy Mayor Cartwright and after a hearlag committed to await the result of the young man's injuries. Sudden Death—Coroner's Inquest. Coroner Clawson was yesterday called upon to hold an inquest on the body of Jennie Morrison, who died suddenly in the house of a colored man, on Arthurs street, near - Wylie. It appears that she had been unwell for some tinae, but not dangerously ill, and yesterday about two o'clock in the afternoon, While at work she had an attack of hemorrhage, which resulted fatally in a few moments. The jury returned a verdict in acoordance with the facts. The deceased was about thirty-two years of age, and has been in this city over twelve years. during all of which time she has led .a life of sin and shame. The body was taken in charge by a fenaale friend, who intends to have it decently interred. The vicinity of Bedford avenue and Wififilngton street was rendered lively , , yesterday, by_reason of the excentric ities of Hannah Gallaghe r , and Rosanna Carr, who' occupied the greater part of the morning to the neglect of their household duties,- bk- - engaging in a wordy warfare relative to their respec tive characters. Rosanna, it is said, de veloped surprising brilliancy of imagine tion, and completely demolished her op. ponent.

We published in our issue of yesterday a notice of the. arrest of George Warntr on a charge of larceny. The information , upon which the warrant for his arrest was based, was made by Officer Keep, and he robbery was perpetrated in the store of Mr. Philip Graff, No. 58 Market It is alleged that he got posses sion of the keys of the store and had duplicates made, by means of which he scould enter the store at night and carry off silks and other valuable goods, which he would sell during the day. Be was committed to jail in default of $2,500 bail Din for a hearing There is another point in the case which would indicate that detectives as well as "common men," and even as Chief n e arslice, may be beaten by a thief. It app that Warner, on Thursday of last week, called at .Eaton's trimming store, on Fifth avenue, and offered some silks for gale. Mr. Eaton, after examin ing the goods and learning the price,was fully convinced that they had been sto len, as they were offered at less than would payl the duty on them. He, how ever, agreed to take the lot and sent Warner after more, promising to take his entire Stock, but was careful not to pay him any money. -As soon as the fel low left, M. Eaton sent for officer Long, one of the pdayor's detectives, to whom he stated the case and requested Mr. Long to arrest__ the silk merchant, who had promised to return that evening for his money. The officer waited, but his man did not come, and at the request of Mr. Eaton, officer Long returned to the store next morning and about nine o'clock succeeded in arresting Warner. He was taken to the Mayor's office and examined by Chief Hague, who after hearing the fellow's plauaible story, notwithstand ing he had sold the goods at less than they could be purchased for if they had been smuggled, or at even less than would pay the duty upon them, discharg ed him. "Some old birds are caught with chaff." Officer Keep deserves credit for the adroit manner in which he worked up .he case. The Executive Committee held Its re gular weekly meeting last night, and further steps were taken towards making the festival a' grand success. If the weather be line the Iron City Park is en gaged for a grand picnic, but if the - weather prove - unpleasant, a grand peoples' festival, such as are common in Germany, will be held in Turners' Hall. In the evening a banquet is to be held in Turners' Hall. Mr. Vaux, the Grand Master of Pennsylvania Masons, is to be invited to lay the corner-stone with the Masonic ceremonials which are so impressive. In order to have time for this, and the picnic also. the procession Will start from Turners' Hall punctually atilialf past eight o'clock. Judge Veech has been invited to make the English speech and Dr. Meinertzhartzen the German speech. Dr. kiardtmeyer has been chosen Chief Marshall of the procession, which is to consist of d;d all of the societiesthree grand of the city haveivisions been invited to take part. Ground will be broken for the monument to-morrow, the plans for which are in the hands of the Park Commissioners. Altogether the affair s u c cess, o promise not only to be a grand s but a demonstration such as has rarely been equalled in our city, and one in every way worthy of the occasion. Disorderly: The Humboldt Festival Coroner's Inquest Coroner Clawson, yesterday held an inquest on the body of Johu Brennan, who died suddently at nis residence in the Eighth ward,-Allegheny. It uproars that some months since Brennan was insured by an accident on a railroad to, such an extent as to render the amputa Lion of one of his lege necessary, which operation was preformed by Dr. John Dickson. Subsequently it became ne cessary to make a second amputation, and on Tuesday Dr. Dickson pre- Pared the patient for the operation Chloroform was administered, but in about a minute atter, and before a tea spoonful of ,the liquid had been used, the patient gave a convulsive movement, and his circulation stopped. Efforts were instantly made to renew circula tion, but in vain, and iu another mo ment breathing had stopped, and the man was dead. A post morton examiu. ation was made by Dr. Dickson, and it was found that the man died of paraly sis of the heart, induced by the sedative action of the chloroform. A verdict to that effect was rendered. Deceased yins fifty-four years of age, and leaves a ;Wife and family. lie has been much debilita ted for months past. Pittsburgh Teachers' Institute. We have received a circular from Prof. George J. Luckey, the zealous, efficient, and enterprising City Superintendent of Public Schools, announcing the pro. gramme of the next meeting of the Pitts burgh Teachers' Institute, to be held at Ralston School Rouse, commencing at two o'clock of the afternoon of the 23d instant. The programme embraces the names of many of our most proficient and leading educators, and we daresay the occasion will be highly interesting and instructive. The exercises will be inter. spouted with mcisio by the Pittsburgh by Quar R tette. and elan with selec readingev. Evans, of Pittsburgh. t and Mrs . s Randall, of Owego, N. Y. Ron. J. P. Wickersham, State Superintendent, has been invited to be uresent on Thursday evening, and no doubt ne will accept the invitation. Rowdyism. Already several of the seats in the Allegheny Park have been broken by parties who seem to have an idea that they were put there for nothing but to be destroyed. Thus far the guilty par ties have not been arrested, but If any of the offenders can be secured they will be severely dealt with. Mayor Drum is de termined that nothing of the kind shall ma udne pfunit s h h eeird .e n l jo t y l m s t e h n e t p anden'ost p a a r s k a rendezvous for a set of loafers who de light in destruction. With the few ex ceptions thus noted , everything about the Park has been of the most orderly character, and It . Is the Intention to have it so.- ' County Cotamittee • Sleeting. A meeting of the Republican County Executive' Committee was held yester day, in the Common Pleas Court Room, W. S. Purviance, Esq. the Chairman, presiding. The object of the meeting was the ap• pointmeot of an Executive and Vigilance Committee for the various wards, bor oughs and townships in the county. Mears. Joseph A. Butler and Alexan- Aer Patterson were duly appointed mem bora Of the 06unty Committee. After transacting some general busi ness the 'Committee adjourned to , meet ou WedneedsY afternoon, August 25tb, at two o'clook, in the Manta - Conn • Pollcetatos In the Oriter Wards. Deputy Mayor Cartwright's office, loca ted in East Liberty, is one of the busiest places for police matters in tho - city, and the gebial deputy has his haniis pretty full all the time. Yesterday was an il lustration of the way in which the busi ness is disposed of. He had the follow ing b:fare George Cisco was arrested on an infor mation for, false pretence, and held for a hearing. , Frank ,Baxter, was arrested for as saulting henry Weizner, with a billiard cue, and Striking him on the head. This sort of billiards was not relished by Henry hence the suit. Frank settled the case by paying the costs of prosecu tion. Mrs. Dinsmore alleged that Henry Kellar called her a variety of obscene names, for which Henry was arrested and fined, on a charge of disorderly con duct. As an offset for this little litiga tion, Anna Dinsmore, a daughter of the former prosecutrix, was arrested for act ing disorderly by applying abusive epi thets to Mrs. Kellar. She paid a tine. James Dolan was charged with throw ing down Mrs. Dwyer's steps: He was fined, and upon payment discharged. Henry Shauch while acting slightly disorderly was arrested and fined. Henry Wharton, it was alleged, struck Mrs. Shanch in the face. He shared a similar fate with the others, and depart ed with the same exalted idea of the majesty of justice. The High School. At a meeting of the Central Board of Education held recently, the resignation of Miss Agnes C. Way, teacher of free hand drawing, was presented and ac cepted and the matter of selecting a teacher to fill the vacancy was referred to the Committee on High School. The Committee held a meeting yesterday when Miss M. E. Fitzsimmons was elected to fill the vacancy. Miss Fitz- simmons is from the Pittsburgh School, of Design ; for Women, and is a lady of excellent accomplishments for the posi tion. The Committee also voted to re - commend the employment of another teacher, and procuring an additional room for the High School, and that pro vision be made for teaching the 'German and French languages in the school. They authorized the purchase of survey ing and engineering instruments, and the carrying out of an appropriation of 5200, made by a former Board, for the enlargement of the library. • Bad Tenant. • Generally-it is understood that tenants should leave houses occupied by them in as good condition as when they entered, or at leaat no unnecessary exertions should be made to put them out of order. Thera are tenants however who dont seem to appreciate this matter, among whom, it Is said Mrs. Ann McConnell is number ed. ed. She scout ed that reputation lately, by renting Who se of J. C. McCarthy, oc r ' cupying it but a short time and leaving it according to cCart tty's allegations, in an exceedingl dilapidated condition, even going so far as to tear down the doors and am the windows previous to her departure. This is Said to have oc cured a day or two since and yesterday Aldermat4McMasters, at McCarthy's in stance, issued a warrant for the arrest of Mrs. McConnell for malicious mischief. Point Activities Yesterday was the occasion chosen by Mrs. Mary Nee and Mrs. Margaret King for exchanging the compliments of the seascn. Their mutual exchanges led to a rather unpleasant termination. Mrs. King was required to appear before Al derman /lumbers. where she discovered that Mrs. Nee, having taken offence at her remarks, had instituted proceedings against her. She was charged with act ing in a disorderly manner. A spirited and refreshing discussion ensued be-' tween the ladies, relative to the respec. the merits of thethselveg, families and pedigree, which was finally interrupted by the Magistrate, whose judicial intel lect had discovered that both were some what to blame, and clearly entitled to pay half the costs each. The case was thus settled. Toe language of nature and experi ence demonstrates that whoever would enjoy the pleasures of food, the beauties of landscape, the joys of companionship, the riches of literature, or the honors of station and renown, must preserve their health. The effect of foul, injurious food, entering the stomach, is to derange the digestive, organs and produce headache, loss of appetite, unreiresbing sleep, low spirits, feverish impinge. etc. which are the symptoms of that horrid disease, Dyspep.sia, Which assumes a thousand shapes,. and points toward a miserable life and premature decay.

Multitudes of persons, compelled to stay at home during the "heated term" to at tend to business and other duties, bie away to some nook in the country to spend a quiet Sunday. Saturday trains are'usually crowded owing to this fact, at least those on the Pennsylvania railroad, as we witnessed on , a brief trip to the mountains last Saturday. At Latrobe we found the town all , agogs especially in the neighborhood of the ho tel at the railroad station, owing to the presence.of a company gathered in the in terest of the Covode•Foster Congressional contested case. The telitimony of several persons was taken, all of which was de cidedly damaging to Foster's prospects and favorable to Covode. Mr. Covode was present and looked gratified at the turn things were taking in his behalf. The old veteran seems to be in good trim for the State election, and will no doubt honor the important position he occupies as Chairman of the State Committee. - This town is thrifty and shows signs of progressiveness. There appears to be considerable business transacted, and quite a number of manufacturing inter ests are in full blast. Numerous build ings have been recently erected, among which are two or three churches. The place is decidedly cozy, and cannot be seen to advanta e unless visitors will ramble through it Bishop Domene the able and popular Catholic Bishop o this diocese, was in Latrobe a short ti e, having been at the Institution some ris les off. The Bishop is the very picture i? health, and always at work In advancing the interests of his Church. Persons cannot well help ad miring the suavity of his manners and happy looking countenance. We sup pose the Bishop will soon be leaving for Rome to attend the great Council at the Vatican. Other: dioceses have put well filled purses in the hands of their Bishops to enjoy tho trip. Bishop • Baley, of Newark, is an instance, who received a gift of five thousand dollars for this pur pose, and the well-to-do-communicants of Pittsburgh Diocese will not be behind • othi r dioceses. We had an opportunity while pedester ing some miles over the crossties of the mountain section of the great Central Pennsylvania Rail cad, mostly through deep defiles of roc and gravel, to ob serve the excellent im of the road-bed, rails, ties and other portions of the track. It is not surprisi that few accidents occur, and that it is so pleasant to ride over, as everything is kept in complete order. An army of men are scattered all along the line, repairing and watching it, and here and there some new improve ment is in progress. The laying of a double track is one of the commeudable features of the road. It is hardly neces sary to mention that this part of the road, so admirably managed and in such nice order, extending from Pittsburgh to Al toona, is under the superintendence of our good friend, • Robert Pitcairn, Esq., who also has the supervision of the Western Pennsylvania, Indiana, Blairs ville and Tyrone Branches. The condi tion of his district speaks volumes of praise. At nearly every point, Blairsville Junction, Johnstown and Cresson, Pittsburgers left the train to enjoy rural Measures. Quite a number stopped at Cresson to reinforce the already large crowd of guests at the Mountain House. This popular mint so admirably kept by Mr. George W. Mullin, was overflowing ly full, mostly with Pittsburgers. Every room was occupied, and the owners of the cottages generously tendered all ac commodations to their friends to the ut most extent of their ability. This need not prevent visitors, however, from going to Cresson; as guests are coming and going all thetime. Among the cot tage residents from Pittsburgh, are Wm. Thaw and family, Mrs. Jones and thralls , James O'Hara and family, B. H. Painter and family, A. S. Bell and family, W. S. Barnes and family, G. B. Ed wards and family, D. E. Park and family. A. E. W. Painter and tamily, T. 0. Messier and family, and others. We believe•some Philadelphians also have cottages Quite a large num ber of Pittsburgers are among the vis itors: Hon. M. Hampton and wife, M. K. • Moorhead and family, Robert Pitcairn and family, W. J. Moorhead and family, Ben. Bakewell, Jr., and family, R. W. Mackey, State Treasurer. W. F. Ander son, Alex. Chambers, H. Howard and family, R. H. Hartley, P. N. Guthrie, D. B. Morrison, Samuel 9ormily and family, James A. Hutchinson and family, Irwin Laughlin, A: H. Childs and family, W. S. Puryiance. Quite an array of names are registered from Philadelphia, with a slight sprinkling of New York ers, Baltimoreans, Cinciunatians, &c. Of these visitors west of the mountains, we observed Dr. Boardman, of Philadel phia, Mr. Hugh Pitcairn, of Maucli Chunk, and Lieut.-Commander A. R. McNair of the U. S. Navy, who is on sick-furlough, having recently returned from Europe. He was on Ad miral Farragnt'e staff during the war in the South, and is therefore one of our naval heroes. He belongs to the McNair family, once owning property in the neighborhood of Wilkinsburgh, formerly railed McNairtosin. Sunday was observed at the Mountain House with great propriety, and as few places ot• resort can boast of, indeed we doubt if it was equalled. It Is true the hotel is located so that the demoralization -usually seen at fashionable places cannot exist,. The class of people at this hotel Are of the highest respectability, and though many of them are fashionable, yet , not of the fast sort. In the morning the little chapel was crowded to hear Rev.' Dr. Humphrey, a Presbyterian divine from Louisville, By., preach. Dr. Board man, of Philadelphia, participating. At 8 P. at. a children's meeting was held, in which -several Eastern Sunday school workers participated. A. large audience assembled in the Dining Hall in the even ing to hear Rev. Dr. Scovel. of the First Church, Pittsburgh, preach, Rev. Mr. Beatty, pastor of Shadyside Presbyterian Church, assisting. It is needless to speak of the elegant walks and drives, mountain scenery, in vigorating air, splendid cuisine arrange ments, trout flaking grounds,:',, hops etc-, as these things are well known. We . know of no nicer place to go to enjoy a 'pleasant time in the summer.

Corremondence of the Pittsburgh Gazette.] LYNN, MASS August 13, 1869. When Ilearned in geography, years ago, that Lynn was noted for its shoe manufactures 4 : imagined a little city fail of tanneries, liather factories and the ne cessary accompanying odors of such a j>- , trade. 7 I found a very pretty city, kept cool and, comfortable through these hot months by the sea breezes, and filled with beautiful residences shaded by the trees for which New England is so justly famed. Lynn Beach itself is enough to keep one entranced for hours. Nearly two miles long, hard and smooth, with its splash and dash of ova es, its sea air,' and far stretching view, if is a drive not to be excelled.
