mmtrinit her condition she besought
the deceiver to save tier name and
fame and that of her parents and
friends by the honorable reparation
of marriage. Her entreaties were scorn
ed. and the poor girl with agonized heart
returned home to hex parents and
breathed to them the fearful tale of her
sin and shame. They took her - under
their roof and with true christian charity
forgave the crime and besought the se.
dnoer to make that reparation her vio

girl and under the shadow of night de
coyed her away from the parental roof
and brought her to the city, stopping at
the St. Charles Hotel, where he registered
. fictitious names, paining his victim odes
his wife. The father of the girl, on dis
covering her flight, came to the city In
search of his child, and although he
passed her in the Kali of the hotel, she
suosearthily eluded his search, having
abiding faith in the word of her seducer

' She suffered terribly for want of

giving birth to the child she was at the
point of death and sent for a pions and
zealous clergyman to administer the
sweet consolation' of religion. A re

but. all efforts to lave the girl's life were
futile. The doctor wrote, at the request
of the patient, several telegraph dig

iIIE PASTOIVIII PORTITOLIO EZMIN/liICEIN
One night, la the year 18d7, being In
my pulpit . conducting the Wednesday
night prayer meeting, a young mai:teams
to the pulpit and said 'us lady on Belle.
Magnet street 'br dying, and she wishes •
you to visit her immediately." As soon
as I could I set out to see her. I learned
that she, by her screams, had attractedi
neighbor woman to the house where she
was lying. The neighbor. seeing she
was sisal to die, asked her "If chit did not
wish for some clergyman to come and
talk and pray with tun?" She exclaimed
"Oh y, Immediately: call one Immedi
ately." She oametto the church at once
for me. The sick woman seemed' to be
about twenty years of age, was beautiful
and intelligent, and, judging front her
surroundings, had movenin the higher
doles of life. 21.4 king her name I was
told It was Mrs. -.----„tuid.on Inquiry for

confinement, a person unknown to fame
and skill had been called to attend her.
By mil-practice the poor girl, for &lake
was, was left in • very milled condition.
The Inmates of the bonne where she was,
had some days before I - wax called,
Covered her condition, and land called le
the services of one skilled In the practice
of medicine. From him I learned the
following painful truths: The girl was
unmarried, bar name was Ellen -;
that her father and mother were living
and well to do in the world. Her seducer's
intention was to hide her shame, and
with this object in view be sent her to
the hones where I found her.
The unfortunate girl had been loved
and tenderly caressed In her childhood;
petted and adored as she bloomed Into
womanhood; sent from a mother's watch
ful eye, and a father's Sheltering roof to
a fashionable boarding school to com
plete her education. While there she
had deported herself in a lady and Chris

we wilt speak more hereafter, seemed to
have been well read; all was bright and
all promising Until the seducer came.

I read the lith. chapter of the Chispel

during my • oonveraltiou with her, she
repeatedly said. "Oh, bow pi - anions to
me are those words you read!" -Of the
lady who had called me from the prayer

on the visit, was asked by the dying
woman "What kinder a minister Is he?"
She answered, "A Presbyterian."
'One of my own minister'," she said,
"bow good In Clod to mind me one of

I knelt by her bedside ind prayed,
and as I was pleading the promises, she
audibly and frequently exclaimed,
"Precious," Precious." -
"You are too weak, Ellen," I sold, "for
me to talk with you longer, now."
"You will please come again at four

at four o'clock and she wax Insensible and
could not be roused more than
a moment at a time. After prayer
I took her by the hand, auppoding

went again on Saturday Inerrant. Her
pkydalan had discontinued the use el
narcotics and ordered. stimulants.. She
was brighter, and her mind clearer, aid
evidently she was passing away rapidly.
There were two physicians present and
it was only. proper for me to lead in a
short prayer. Holding her hand and
about to leave, she said very feeble':
"Come again tele afternoon." I visited
her at four o'clock, and as I was passing
up one stairs her nurse told ma "She is
altogether linOollSelesill and will not
know you." Proceeding to the bedside
and being about to kneel, ahe opened her
eyes and turned them upon her nurse,
who understood that ahe wished to
speak. Closely pressing her ear to the
sick girl's lips, the mime addrezeing me
said, "Stop, she wiaheethe other nurse to
be called in while you pray." The other
nurse was called in. We knelt, and spa
unaccustomed to weep, wept then, and
ears probably unaccustomed to hear
prayer, for once heard it, and that too In
the very presence of death. Prayer
being over, ono of the nurses, with her
ear to her lips to catch the faint whisper
ing' of the lack girl's soul, exclaimed,
"See says, nurses, pray for yourselves."
About to bid her farewell, and assured
that It would bathe last farewell of earth,
I asked, "Ellen, is Jesus precious to son
now?" She faintly whispered in my ear,
"He Is precious, precious to my tont"—
her last words.
She died at seven o'clock. She never
mentioned to me her child, her father or
her mother. Her physician told me she
died of a broken heart. Ruined In life,
crushed In spiritoeway from friends, her •
frail ociastitution could not bear up, but
gave way.. The next day, Sabbath, with
but few to mourn, this bright, promising
young girl was .hurried to a dishonored
grave, and now her body sleeps In Pot
ter's Field, in Allegheny Cemetery. Her
*Moose and murderer le at large, and
everywhere regarded an Honorable man!
What language can isufticiently execrate
such a one? what tongue eufficlently rep
robate the despotism and cruelty of the
custom which holds the seducer honora
ble, and the victim or his lust a dishon
ored outcast? If the death penalty
should be inflicted In any case what one
so richly molts it as 'the vile seducer?
Society owes It to itself to pot a *tiaras
on such men that time can nevereffece.
If any ought to receive sympathy, and
ought to be sustained by the good and
virtuous, there are none more deserving
than the 'kilo of such cruel wrest.
Why should such be east oft' by
societe? Why for one single offense, and
one, too, in which they are more abetted
&indult than sinning, should inch be
made outcast*?
Is it not enough tear - the poor victim's
eptrit is crushed; that isho.hes been dee
polled of that which Ic dearer than life?
Mast she also bear the odium of the good
and the virtuous? Why not take such
by the hand and help them in the hour
of their greatest need and save them to
- nib, to virtue and to happiness? The
poor victim, cast off by friends and noel.
sty, dies uncared for, deem unepitaphed
among strangers, and the place of her
burial will soon be forgotten. In ordi
nary transgressions, I do not know that
one sin In the , slght of God Is More

adultery la more .than oovetonaneser./.
know in the word the latter is called
"Idolatry." Ido nut remember that the
former is over so designated. Imman's
sight the covetous man is respectable
and honorable. and the victim of the
seducer loathsome and an. °nicest.
"God's thoughts are not man's." Man's
respected and honorable ones may be
abhorent In God's sight. and hiabambed
and. outcast ours God's most_precions
saints. With my knowledge of tub tub
ject of the foregoing narrative, I would
Infinitely rather take bar chances for
eternal glory than the chances of many
whitewashed Christtans, whom the world
calls honorable and respectable, and
over whose tombs—proud, lying costly
monuments—speak high words of praise.
7 would rather sleep in Potter's Field,—
a Held purchased by the contemptible
thirty pieces; of diver for which Judas
ioldjhe Lord, (because It la the price of
preclbus life and blood),—than under
the most meetly monument In earth's
most honored cemetery a the rich,
profane and wicked dead. ow often
have I gone to Potter's Fldld , . to the
stranger's burying -ground, - impressed
with too thought, it is filling to lay those
..who are strangers and pilgrims on
earth" In the Stranger's burying ground
They are with their companions. And
when I read on the huge marble
monumental plies, "Seared to the
memory," I feel like saying,
"Sacred," to the pride of surviving
friend& wrung, It may bottom the sweat
and unrequited labor of Goei's peer, a
monument of cold lard hearted covetous
ness,
which speaks more of the man's
'shame than of his praise.
But when I stand In the stranger's
burying ground and see the little boatel
at the head of the grave soon to fell by
the friction of hurried vapors and atmos

the place is "Sacred," If angels watch

PITTSBURGH DAILY GAZETTE: THURSDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 24, 1870
ANOTHER RAID.
Was It Legal or illegal I
For some time past a James T. Hunter,
has . been preluding over an establish- -
meet on Liberty street, near the Rush
House, formerly kept by Jas. Wilhamo,
where balls were held every evening,
which were - attended by the demi swede
of the city, and the elan of men who
frequent such places. Theriot wan made
known at the Mayor'. odine, and It
wee resolved to close the establishment.
An information was made before the
Mayor by Chief Hague, oharcinglinnter
with keeping a disorderly , bonne, and on
this Information a warrant wee Issued
for the arrest of Jamey T. Hunter. The
arrest. of Hunter, it appears from what
subsequently transpired, was not the
only object In view, but It was resolved
by those engineering the matter to nicks
hat
}l large ha I, and to enable them to do
this the officers were Instructed
not to ex cote the warrant until
last night, 'after the ball, which
It wai t 7own would. be hold there, was
under y, end then to make a raid on the
establis merit and arrest every person
found on the premises. Ica-accordance
with these Instructions' the °dicers soled
and last night about half past eleven
o'clock, gaesta having assembled to the
number of seventy-five or one hundred,
nod dancing having commenced, and was
going on, as it is alleged quietly and or
derly, the pollee Made a deecentopon the
place. The alarm was given and a scene
of confusion ensued.. The gas wartnin
ed off and the. room- and its occupants,
polite end - all, were In total darkness.
A rush was made for the cloak room by
' the females and there was I "mixing"
up of wrappings which, In all probabil-
IV, will never be "unmixed." The men
made a break for the door, there
being but one leading from the ball
room, belt It was strongly guarded. By
this time the calms had sineoeeded In
"atriklng a light," after which a scrim
mage ensued between two - of the
gallants and a number of officers.
The Mileers overpowered the two, and
they, with others on . the 'premises, .premisas,
were taken in custody, when a proem.
Mon was formed and the prisoners
marched to the lock-up.
-There were eighteen women and twenty
five men incarcerated behind the bars of.
the loathsome cells of the tombs. Near
ly all gave Captain Reed fictitious names
and thus strove to secure from publica
tion their disgrace. Such a gala scene
we have seldom witnessed in the tyran
nical quarters, of soiled justice. The
women were depraved enough to make
night hideous . with their loud and' o.
famatery . language against the pollee
and all who happened to look In upon
them lit their misery. The men took
the .mstier more philosophically, and
some of the wealthier Insisted that they
would carry their cases to tee court and
demand reparation from the hands of
the authorldea who had ordered their
arrest. While nearly all, both men and
women, wore perfectly sober, we can
hardly hope that any one of them will be
found pomessed'adth courage and money
enough to carry Into a court his very
plain cause for complaint and demand
tor impartial jusaro.
After a short time had elapsed the
friends of the arrested put in an appear
ance and watches and chains, and •rings
and greenbacks, and what not, were
"sPcated" on the Captain's books to se
cure the release of the prisoners on con
dition of appearing this morning to an
swer a charge, which under the law
cannot oe sustained unless something
akin to perjury. is committed by the
arresting parties, or a stretch of muni
cipal authority is made by . the Mayor,
who, wa believe has made a blind error
in ordering the descent. The larger
majority of the prisoners were left in the
tombs ell night, and this morning will
be arraigned to answer a charge of
what?
So for as the arrest of Hunter is con
earned we have nothing to say. as there
was an Information based - on the osta of
Robert Hague, Chief of Polk», charging
him with keeping a disorderly house,
and surely Robert knows the fact, or he
would not have sworn to It, for Robert le
an ' , honorable man;" but as to the arrest
of the persons found there engaged in.
innocent amusement, if 'they were con.
ductlog themselves properly, we have a
word to say.
The ordinance fMm which the anther.
by Pm making this wholesale arrest is
hued 'upon an Act of Asierubli, Section
13, Page 2D, of the city' digest, approved
April Bth; 1867, reads as follows:
"The ourparation shall have power to
make and publish, from time to time,
ordbeanoesp not. inconsistent with the
least ;of -, the_ Butte; - for carrying
into :effect or dtschargiug the powers
or nudes conferred .er And
under this act. • • • And it la
hereby made the duty of the corporation
to make and publish such ordittances es
may be necoeaary to secure the corpora
tion and its inhabitants against Injuries
by Gra, thieves, robbers, burglars and
all other persona violating the public
paace; for the suppression of riots,
gambling and Mewl:tarty conduct; for the
punishment Of all lewd, indecent or'
lascivious behaviour In the Weal,. or
other public places; of all vagrants,
common street beggars, common preetl•
totes, habitual dlaturbent of the peace,
It v:111 not he contended that the ordt.
1:161100 can oonvey more rower than is
delegated by the act of Atasinbly under
which It wait framed.
Let us lee then whether the arrest of
these parties, under the circumstances,
is justified by the act of Assembly. The
only offences named In this act of which
they can .under any circumstances be
charged Is "clobitlng UM' Public Peace,"
..disorderly oondact" or "Indecent
behaviour,' ,
As. to the first of • the
ntr en e o3 na n d, dlaturbleg. • the
the pekoe;" itla - ilearcely worth
while to speak; as 11 Cer tainty will net tat
eenteraded that these persons were di*.

thority of Council, Is rented for dancing
purposes, and In the private parlors or
our best oltiss,rw...• We next Nate*, "Ma..
orderly conduct," which, we presume,
will be the charge made. In order toj as•
life en arrest for disorderly conduct .'on
view," the alleged disorderly act - must.
have been oonamitted .in the presence of
the officer making the • arrest, and as
there wee no warrant leaned In this cage
the arrest of coarse was made on view.
The question then la were these persons
acting In a disorderly manner when the
officers entered the ball room?' Ira°,
they were Justified la arresting sumach
dleorderly persona and ho others; so In
order to make out- a MAO it will be no
misery for the officer .Making theerrest
or some ono present to swear that the
accused were acting In a disorderly
manner, or that they were "disturbing
the public, peace." The next and. last
offence is lake the first, scarcely - worth
considering, and so It will not beacon.
tended, we preen me that any officer
making the arrest witnessed indecent
bthavtor on the part of all those eigh
teen females and twentyllve men, and
if not, then each and every officer mak
ing an arrest tinder the circumatimees of
l ug evening; was gaillyof a violation of
law, and is liable to be mulct In
damages.
The fact of the matter having 'been
'Oreconoeillad anti prt..urranged,la proof
positive that the arrest wan not made
upon "view," as the officers were In
structed to arrest every person found
upon the premise* and •so faithfully did
they execute the order that they even
captured the musicians, Intrumentli and
an, and conducted them to the . tombs
With the other victims.
We have uo Ides of- advancing s word
, 10 support of such evil dons as that must_
have boon upon which the descent was

be blessed were suchlpleces completely
and !Mover wiped , out. But the Is* is

before afforded our people. Prof. Willcox
Is an .arilst of extraordinary power and
ability. lie Is, perhaps, in many partic
ulars, the peer of any organist In the
world, and certainly the equal of those
known to fame In this country. Spirited,
full Of euttineleam and having full
knowledge of all that an organ
is capable of producing, he ham
mers away at the keys with a grace
aud • saaa which astonish his auditors,
and produces music that goes down deep
Into the soul and leaves an enduring lm.

concert In the Third Church, on Sixth

old gentleman was Mr. James Garvin,

His attendance at the Quarter Sessions
was a Source of pleasure to him, and be.

He was a lover of justice—a. true. Chris

attention, nothing escaping him, and ex
pressed his opinion freely, never intru

- . Mr. Garvin came to be regarded as• a
fixture in the Quarter Sessions, and from
his accustomed place of sitting, near. the
Jury-box, was designated as the "Thir

infirmities of age came upon him rapid

vacant. His summons came on Saturday
of last week, and he calmly breathed his
last, surrounded by 'Sorrowing friends.
