to twelve o'clock. '
Appleton's Journal has taken rank
among our foremost periodicals, and,
probably more successfully than any
other, unites the useful with the enter
taining. Its admirably made up pages of
purely literary matters are supplemented
by well writtenpapers on popular science
while each number is varied or accom
panied by large and effective illustra
tions. Altogether, in neatness of appear
ance, in artistic embellishment, and in
general excellence of its greatly-varied
literature, Appleton's .Tournal takes fore
most place among our literary period
icals.
Serious Accident.—Yesterday evening
about five o'clock, an accident occurred
on the St. Clair street suspension bridge,
by which Mr. Isaac Dickey, a lumber
merchant in Allegheny, was severely in.
Jared. He was crossing the bridge on a

end, fell from the front of the wagon at
the heels of the horses, one of which
kicged him ':cutting a deep gash above
the left eye and bruising the cheek se
verely. He' was , picked up insensible
and removed - to the office of Doctors Haz
litt and Elliott where his wounds were
properly dressed. •
Illonongatiebi 'Valley Raliresid —The
Waynesburg') Repubilcan of this week
says: "This, it seems, Is to be no longer
a myth, a.by-word, and a thing that will
come fometines but it is to be built nett

Company' has proposals from three
different' parties, each of which Is anx
ious to go to work at once upon the road.
About the first of January next a new set
of officers of the Company will be elect

by wicked boys and old junk dealers.

The Keystone Skating Rink last even
ing was filled with a large and discrim
inating audience to witness the Stereo
scoptioon entertainment, given for the
benefit of the Sobo Mission Sabbath
School. So well pleased were those in
attendance that an unanimous request
was made for the repetition of the ex
hibition this eyening. Accordingly ar
rangements have been made for an entire
change of programme, and to render the
affair within the reach of all, the price
of admission has been lowered to twenty
five cents.
The entertainment taken altogether is
certainly one of the finest of the kind
ever given in our vicinity. The paint
ings exhibited are copies from the origi
nal of some of the great masters, and
so true and correct as to be hardly dis
tinguishable. One of the scenes, es
pecially "
.The Fated Ship," is remarka
bly fine, and fail of spirit, while all,
Whether comic or sentimental, are ex
cellent: .Not the least feature ls the
singing of the children, which alone
would be sufficient for an ordinary
entertainment. Those desiring to pass
an hour or two pleasantly and aiding in
a very worthy cause should attend the
Rink to-night.
OPERA HOUSE.—The Opera ROUSE, was
filled with a large and fashionable audi
ence last evening, which was Mr. John
E. Owens' benefit night. "Dot, or the
Cricket on the Hearth" was presented in
excellent style, as was also "Toodles."
Mr. Owens' Toodles is urfexceptionable.
Ladles should remember that Mr.
Owens appears at the matinee this after
noon in an excellent bill, and that this
evening closes his engagement.
PriTBRURCiII THEATRE.:—The Old The-'
etre was filled last night as usual, and
the entertainment was an excellent one.
Miss Viola Clifton, Emma Grattan and
Frank Dillon appear to be the favorites,
but the entire company are stars in their
profession and render general satisfac
tion to the patrons of the establishment.
A grand matinee will be given this after
nson for the benefit of ladies and chil
dren, and an unusually interesting bill
is announced for this evening.
ACADEMY oP Music.—Two more en
tertainments closes the engagement of
the Gregories at the Academy of Music.
The matinee this afternoon will atlord an
excellent opportunity to ladies and
children to witness an entertainment of
this excellent and amusing company.
• A serious accident occurred on the
Monongahela Suspension bridge about
half•past nine o'clock last night, resulting
in the probable fatal injury of a valuable
horse, and the serious injury of a man..
It appears that Mr. H. Bare, of Birming
ham, hired a valuable saddle horse from
Jackson and Devore, on Third avenue,
yesterday, and In the evening directed
a young man who works for him to
bring the horse home. The man started,
and when passing the toll house at the
south end of the bridge, the horse being
high spirted took fright and ran away.
Wnen about halfway over the bridge, he
ran into car No. 10 on the Birmingham
railway, throwing his rider against the
car with such force as to break an arm,
dislocate a shoulder, and otherwise in
juring him. The horse was so severely
injured that be will probably die before
morning. It appears that he struck
against the iron dash board of the car,
cutting his breast terribly. The injured
man was placed in a car and removed to
his home, where his injuries were at
tended to. The horse was placed on a
sled and taken to the stable.

A Runaway.
A. Prisoner's Troubles.
One of the prisoners in the county jail
seems to have bad lately an extraordi
nary run of ill luck. Not content with
having him locked up, his evil genius .
has led him into still further trouble, a
partial account of which was given to
Alderman McMasters yesterday, he be
ing summoned to William Moore's cell
to hear the recital. William states in
substance that he was being taken from
the Court Room to the cell, after passing
through his trial, when officer Mul-
Vaney of the Mayor's police, struck
him with a - handy billy cutting
his cheek open and knocking him down.
Further, he alleges a companion, John
whenetley, struck bim with his flat, and
his wife, who witnessed the abuse
of her husband, mailed in to save him,
Tetley ,'struck her. This is Williams'
statement, which is embodied in three
informations—one against Mulvany for
felonious assault, and two against Tetley
for aggravated assault and assault and
battery on his wife. Warrants for the ar
rest of the accused were issued. Of course
this is but one aide of the story.
Improvements and their Consequencea.
We understand that among the protn
inent and , extensive improvements in
fine buildings which of late are being
made to adorn our city, Messrs. Oliver
McClintock and Co., Carpet at Oil Cloth
dealers, have begnn and .are .pushing
with energy such extetudve,adilitions to
their warerooms as will when Completed,
make them the largest Carpet Sales.
rooms in the West. Owing to the con
fusion and want of room which the
changes in progress have caused, they
have determined upon selling at greatly
reduced rates, a large portion of their
carpets consisting of Velvets and Wll.
tons,
carpets,'
Brussels and Tapestry Bras•
eels and a very tine stock of common
Ingrain Carpets. Those in need should
at least call and inspect the patterns and
goods which the firm have said must be
sold.
Croft dc : Ph illips, Rest Estate Agents.
• 139 Fourth Avenue.
Messrs. Cleft . t Phillips. the -well
known and enterprising real estate
agents, No. 139 Fourth Avenue, make
daily accessions to their extensive list of
real estate for sale, and all those think
ing of purchasing farms, lands or house
holds. should not fall to favor them with
a call. They have their business thor
oughly systematized, and) conduct all
their operations in such a'manner as to
win the fullest confidence of those with
whom they have dealing. In our
advertising columns will be found a par
tial list of the real estate they offer for
sale,
and the reader will at once discover
that it is no difficult matter to make a
selection as the assortment is so large and
varied. The Monthly Register, a neat
book, of some proportions, contains an
almost unlimited number of announce
ments of property held in hand and for
sale by this firm. It is published month
ly and gratuitously furnished to all who
make application for it to the office. We
tcheerfully and earnestly commend
Messrs. Croft and Philips to our readers
as business men worthy the largest share
of confidence, being upright and fair
dealing in all their transactions, and they
consult the best interests of all who
make them their agents for the purchase
or sale of property.
At His Old Post Again.
e 4f
It ords us unfeigned satisfaction to
r ize once more in the centre of
railroad operations in this city, the bland
and genial countenance of our excellent
friend F. R. Myers, Esq., and to see that
he is at his old post again as General
Ticket Agent of the Pittsburgh, Fort
Wayne and Chicago Railway (P. R. R.
lessee) and the Cleveland and Pittsburgh
Railroad. We know it has been, with
great reluctance that these Companies
allowed Mr. Myers to give up
the position for a time, although
his place Was ably filled by ' S. M. Kim
ball, Esq. We are glad to see that he
has been induced to return. He has re
duced the business of his department to
a complete science, and as a General
Ticket Agent has few equals, and certain
ly no superiors. He is besides a most
worthy gentleman, and there could not
be found one better q ualified to discharge
the duties, and administer the intricate
details of the ticket departments of these
large and flourishing corporations.
-The VW eather 9 a Change.
The 'sudden change in the weather
brings to mind very forcibly the fact of
the fading away of summer and the re
turn of the cool season. In connection
with this comes another interesting fact
which will be appreciated by all who are
in need of winter wear, which is, that
W. Hespenbeide , No. 0 Sixth street is
now prepared to furnish business suits,
dress suits, overcoats for either fall or
winter wear, at prices which cannot fail
to snit the most limited purse. All the
goods manufactured at this establish
ment are of the best quality and fit, and
are not inferior articles palmed off for
cheapness. The best hands, the best
goods, and cheap prices are the attrac
tions of this house. Mr. Ilespenheide
has now on hand a new and choice selec
tion of goods just Purchased for the sea
son, and to which he invites the atten
tion of all who need clothing. A call at
the establishment will convince the most
incredulous.
Party of Honor.
At the elegant residence of ilr. Daniel
McMeal, on Grant street, on Thursday
evening, a large party of gentlemen
assembled by invltstion, to pay parting
honor to Rt. Rev. MDomenec, who is
about to visit Rome to attend the forth
coming .rEcuminical Council. We have
never betore seen together so many dis
tinguished gentlemen of all persuasions,
and the zealous bishop must have felt the
depth of the honor paid him. The host,
Dr. McMeal, dispensed hospitalities in his
proverbial good manner, and all present
were highly delighted with the occasion.
Bishop Domenec can congratulate him
self on Carrying with him on his journey
the beet wishes of 'a whole army of ad
mirers in this community where he is
so well known and appreciated.
Continental
Mr. Holtzheimer; proprietor of the
Continental, next door below the Post
Office, Fifth avenue, makes it a cardinal
principle in the management of his pop
ular establishment to be always up to
like times, whether in the fitting or fur
nishing of the Continental or the bill of
fare with which his patrons are daily
favored. As a result, the success which
attends his efforts to please are in the
highest degree satisfactory to all. both
patrons and proprietor. The incredulous
should visit the establishment and form
au opinion from ocular demonstration.
The Keystone.
The Keystone Pottery, Messrs. Kier &
Co. proprietors now one of our establish
ed institutions is daily turning out
Queens ware, which in strength and dura
bility and beauty of finish will chal
lenge comparison with any article in
that line manufactured anywhere,
whether manufact red la this country
or imported. The inmense trade which
has been built in • short a time by this
firm, testifies of th 3 superior excellence
of these manufactures more than words
do. Housewives whose stock of table
ware needs repkaishing. should visit
the ware rooms, No. 363 Liberty, street,
where a large assortment is keept con
stantly on hand.
A Pleasant Place.
The fields and woods are pleasant and
very
_attractive under the influence of
the genial weather we have been favored
with the last few days, but no point of
attraction, either in or out of the city,
excels, in any degree; the clean, cheer
ful, bright "Continental," next door be
low the Postoffice, Fifth avenue, while
the savory, delicious appetizing, edibles
which are preparedfor Its patrons lend
it an additional attraction which nothing
else could bring; 'Take a look in at the

Piyty Refreshments.
It is a very nice and convenient thing
to parties' having , company In large •or
small numbers to call in caterers who
take upon themselves the entire respon- '
sibility of providing 'the entertainment.
This branch of business is conducted in
no better manner than by Messrs. Young
sonC Cu. corner of Diamond alley and
Smithfield street, who deservedly enjoy
a first class reputation as party . caterers.
They are prepared on the shortest notice
to arrange for supper and refreshments
at private or public parties and their
charges are very reasonable. At their
popular confectionery and ice cream
rooms they are prepared to furnish cakes
and general confectionery in the very
best of style. We commend this house
to the attention of our readers, knowing
from experience that its proprietors are
eminently worthy of public patronage and
the fullest share of confidence.
Prevention is Better Than Cure
The rapidly increasing sale, unprece
dented popularity and benificent and
lasting results of the Constitution Bit
ters, aro alike subjects of comment and
astonishment. Mild and certain in their
action on the animal economy, prompt
in operation, producing' none of the ill
effects incident to bitters generally ven
ded. For the prevention and mitigation
of sea-sickness they are pleasingly adapt
ed. For counteracting the deleterious
effects resulting from a change of water,
and for irregular diet they are unsur
passed. They. are the antidote for those
derangements consequent upon the inha

(Extract from stetter from Jeraseem
"We started early to ascend Mt. Olivet,
to behold the sun gild the minarets and
towers of the devoted city, fromihe pace
where memory, stirred by a thousand as
sociations, should exalt the mind as Well
as the eye to the Inspiration of the scene.
Well is the voyager repaid for long tray
els, horrid roads, antediluvian cookery,
squalid companionship and the impor
tunities of begging, thieving Arabs.
Well would it have repaid you, oh! man
of commerce and the cruciblef and well
might you have been reminded of youi
own city, for here, painted upon a board
nailed against one of the huge ancient
olive trees, under which the sacred
martyrs toiled for the sins of the world,
eighteen hundred years ago, were these
familiar figures, S. T.-IS6O—X. We do
not know who did it, but no doubt some
poor invalid traveler, cured by the
PLANTATION BITTERS, wished to adver
tise their virtues in a Place from whence
all knowledge flows."
