THE LOCK Ur has been tenantless for two sue
reisive nights—a very unusual occurrence.—
We may, however, look for a fresh swarm of
"yap" during the present week. The old class
of "revolvers" who have formerly patronized
the lock-up did not like the accommodations
this cold weather, and now patronize the county
prison, procuring "free passes' into that insti

THE lisvtvat. MELTING in the Vine Street
Methodist church, commenced several days
ago, continues in successful progress. Last
night the spacious room was crowded to its ut
most capacity, and many persons were obliged
to stand in the aisles and vestibule, and others
to return home, failing to obtain admission.—
The altar was crowded with penitents, and a
commendable degree of religious interest and
zeal seemed to be manifested by the members
of the congregation. The meeting will be con
tinued throughout the present week, and no
doubt great good will be done in the name of
the Lord. The pastor. Ilov. Mr. Carson, has
thus far been very successful in bis ministra
tion, the membership of the congregation hav
ing largely increased during the past year.
BOLD BUROLARIOUd OPICRATION.-011 Friday
night some burglars effected an entrance into
the house of Mrs. Eckert, in Locust street, and
passed through various rooms, examining
closets and drawers, but failed to find agy val
uable plunder. A number of table spoons were
taken from a drawer and broken. The burg
lars, finding the spoons to be pewter, left them
lying on the table. The nocturnal intruders
deliberately helped i themselves lo liberal sup
plies of bread and cold meat, and other eat
ables ; and from appearances next morning they
must have enjoyed a jolly banquet. A tallow
candle, used by the burglars, was left lighted
on a table, and burned to the socket, fortunately
without doing any damage. Nearly all the
doors in the house were found open in the
morning, showing that the fellows had visited
moat of the rooms, some of them occupied by
boarders, who must have slept very soundly.—
The burglars, encouraged by past successes,
are growing bolder in their operations, and it
becomes our citizens to carefully secure their
dwellings and places of business.
THE COMMAS FESTIYAL.—We are now with
in one week of Christmas, and the little folks
are jubilant In anticipation of the "good time
coming." Theirs is a joy to be envied indeed.
Well do we remember when alight-hearted
careless boy, before life had put on its realities,
how we gave vent to the exuberance of our
spirits in the exclamation—" Only one week
to Christmas!" And we remember, too, with
what anxiety we retired to bed the night before
to dream of good St. Nicholas, and to awake
in the morning happier in the possession of a
a pocketful of cakes, tlian the man who counts
his dollars by the million, or who owns the
soil as far as his vision extends. This is the
happy era in human life—this time once passed
never cornea again. Every one can stop and be
benefited by going backin revery to that sunny
morning in life, and with the noisy whirl of
business barred from his mind, live over one
Christmas season as it was in childhood. It is
like sitting under the willows on a sultry day.
It refreshes the heart with a wondrous elixir,
and opens up with the key of memory the
warm and beautiful but dimly lighted cham
bers of a past and better existence. Welcome,
then, the happy holidays. Exult and be cheer
ful with the little ones, and indulge the spell
that takes you back along the vista of almost
forgotten years, and makes you realize and en
joy the festive Christmas season even as it is
enjoyed by them.
UNION MELTING. —ln accordance with the nc
tice given in the Tarsousru, a number of gen
tlemen assembled in the Court House on Satur
day evening last. Mr. Geo. S. Kemble nomi
nated Hon. JR°. C. Kuexas for Chairman, widen
was agreed to. Mr. K. took his seat and opened
the meeting by reading the published call, at
l'ae same time remarking that he understood it
t) be a preliminary meeting, and that commit
tees would be appointed to devise ways and
means and consult about tha present state of
affairs. He was not prepared to express any

ASSAULTIING AN ALDEIDIAti.-A man maned
Samuel Deiffenbach is now in prison awaitii , g . a
trial for assault and battery on Alderman Filer,
He is suspected of being one of the gang who
stole the meat, lard, and other articles from
111 r. Stephenson'sbutcher shop ; and the fellow
would have been arrested on that charge had
not officer Fleck previously imprisoned him.
THE TAX PAYERS of the first and s. cond
wards nre referred to the advertisement of Mr.
Zimmerman, collector, in another column.
Those who wish to save five per cent should pay
up within the time designated. In the present
dilapidated condition of our public finances,
duty as well as policy should prompt all good
citizens to pay the taxes now due, and thus
aid Council in retrieving and maintaining the
credit of the city.

A Summit WINTER DAL—This has been
one of those bright, clear, soft Southern days
that we seldom experience in this latitude at
this season of the year. The brilliant sunlight
danced and sparkled with all the joyousness of
merry Spring—the sky looked serenely blue,
with all the deep azure of Summer. The whole
day, in this grim month of December, was like
the scene of Hope with happy and resplendent
countenance intruding upon the dark and low
ering presence of her unattractive sisters—
Despair and Despondency. May we be blessed
with many such pleasant days during the
Winter months.
I=l
A BAD SHAKING.—Some odd genius, with no
fear of the extravagant before his eyes, got up
up the following picture of ague shaking :
Ile took the ague badly,
And it shook him, shook him sorely;
Shrok his boots off and his toe-nails,
Shook his teeth out and his hair off;
Shook his coat all into tatters,
And his shirt all into ribbons—
Shirtless, coatless, hairless, toothless,
Minns boots and minas toe-nails ;
Slid it shook him, shook him, till it
Made him yellow, gaunt and bony ;
Shook him till he reached his death-bed ;
Shook him till it shuffled for him
Off his mortal coil, and then it
Having made him cold as could be,
Shook the earth still down upon him ;
And ho lies Meath his grave•stene,
Ever shaking, shaking, shaking !
ANOTHER ROBBENT.—On Sunday, morning bei
tween four and five o'clock, some fellow forced
an entrance into the house of Henry Snyder, a
lager beer seller, on Third street, and stole a
watch and chain, and about $1 25 in silver
change, from the money drawer. He then
proceeded to the sleeping room of Mr. and Mrs.
Snyder, where his movements awoke them ;
and finding that he was discovered the burglar
beat a rapid retreat, effecting his escape. Mr.
Snyder had the sum of fifty-two dollars con
cealed in this roots bf which fact the burglar,
who seemed to be thoroughly familiar with the
premises, was no doubt aware. Suspicion at
taches to a German of this city who regularly
frequented Snyder's beer shop, but no arrest
has yet been made.
ARRISTED ox Suarictos.—One Jacob Goff, who
resides at the corner of Second and North
streets, was arrested last Saturday evening, on
suspicion of having Participated in the stealing
of a fresh-slaughtered bog, belonging to Mr.
Ettla, from the butcher shop of Mr. Paul Ste
phenson. A can containing fifty or sixty pounds
of laid, together witivactme beef and other &ti
des, were taken at the same time; and the lard
can being found in the house of Goff, excited
suspicion against him, mid led to his arrest and
imprisonment. He will have a hearing before
Alderman Maglauchlia this afternoon. Some
of Goff's "chums" are suspected, and a hearing
of the case may lead to developments implica
ting one or more of them.
=l=l
RIGHT FOR Oxon.—The usually unreasonable
old dame, "Fashion," has for once, since her
reign began, inaugurated a good movement.
We refer to the introduction among the female
portion of community, of those life•preservers
and disease-preventives, worth more than all
the patent nostrums of the land, viz: Balmoral
skirts and thick soled boots. It is true, there
have been a few ladies sensible enough to wear
the latter for some time, but not until recently
have they become really fashionable. This is a
revolution of the understanding in more ways
than one. It is evident that woman is taking
a higher stand in society—that the will, some
times, exercise good judgment. For comfort
and for beauty, let us have the high-heeled,
high-ankled, thick-soled boot, which dashes so
courageously through mud and slush—and the
gay Balmoral, so jaunty and so sensible. A
column might be written on this subject, but
since "Fashion" has ordained that the good
change shall take placer; it is enough—the work
is accompli4d.
NexroateL Fear Der.--In response to "nn
morons appeals by pions and pa.triolic associa
tioneeind citizens, and in view of the present
distracted and dangerous condition of the coon
try," the President recommends that Friday
the fourth day of January be set apart "as a
day for =humiliation, fruiting and prayer
throughout the Union," and that'the people
assemble on that day, according to, their sev
eral forms of worship, .to 'keep it Si a solemn
fast, and "with deep qontrition and penitent
sorrow, unite in hinibling ourselves before the
confessing „tux
„individualand
national' sins, , end in' acknowledging the jus
tice of our punishment and also to implore
Divine aid in preserving the Union and saving
us from the horrors of civil war. We have no
doubt the Presidential recommendation will be
generally complied with by our citizens. The
prayers of truly righteous men will avail much
in the present emergency ; but we are of the
opinion that had President Buchanan, at the
right time, exhibited's proper degree of firm
ness, and taken decisive steps, to crush out
the disunion traitors, the troubles which
agitate the country, and the dangers which
threaten to revolutionize and overthrow this
confederation, would not now exist. Prayer is
all right, for genuine piety exalteth a nation ;
but a little "back-bone" in our rulers is also es
sential, when treason is boldly preached within
their hearing on the floor of Congress. The
imbecile old occupant of the Presidential chair
has proved unworthy of the trust reposed in
him by the people--a coward at heart, and the
, Setter.of disunionism and treeabn. He' will
orgy retire to obscurity loaded with infamy,
and w,ilktike curses of a bone* and indig
nant people ringing in hie ears

A STATED MEETING of the State Capital Guard
Club will be held at their Wigwam in Eby's

Pucctual attendance is desired.
AIItiaE]IeNTSIN PROSPECTIVE.—There will be no
lack of amusements in this city during the
holiday season. On Saturday evening next the
members of the State Capital Band, assisted by
diati❑gui.-hed pianists and violinists, will give
a conceit at Brant's Hall. On Christmas even
ing there will be a grand concert of sacred mu
sic by the Roman Catholic congregation In
their Church on Front street; and on the same
evening a grand social soiree comes off at the
hall of the Leiderkranz Singing Society. Two
or three select dancing parties will also take
place during the week. On New Year's Eve
the annual ball of the Friendship Fire Compa
ny comes off in Brant's Hall, and this will be
among the largest and most recherche parties
of the season. Upon the whole we may look
for lively times during the holiday season, now
near at hand.
ECONOMY IN THE FAMlLY. —Somebody says,.
and we endorse the sentiment, that an econom
ical woman at the bead of a family is the very
best savings bank that can be established—one
that receives deposits daily and hourly, with
no costly machinery to manage it. The idea of
saving is a pleasant one, and if the women
would imbibe it at once, they would cultivate
and adhere to it ; and ull, when they were
not aware of it, would be laying the founda
tion for a competent security in a stormy time,
and shelter on a rainy day. The woman who
sees to her own house, has a large field to save
in, and the best way to make her comprehend
it, is for her'to keep an acccount of current ex
penses. Probably not one *wife in ten has an
idea how much are the expenditures of herself
or family. Where from one to two thousand
dollars are expended annually, there is a chance
to save something, if the attempt is only made.
Let the housewife take the idea, act upon it,
and strive over it, and she will save many dol
lars, perhaps 'hundreds, where before she
thought it impossible. This is a duty, not a
prompting of avarice—a moral obligation that
rests upon the women as well as the men ; but
it is a duty, we are sorry to say, that is culti
vated very little, even among those who
preach the most, and regard themselves as ex
amples in most matters. "Teach the women
to save," is a good enough maxim to be insert
ed in the next edition of "Poor Richard's Al
manac."
Ws nssu it a duty to let our readers know,
now that the season is at hand twirl:doh an unu
sual quantity of confectionary is consumed,
that-the place where it may be had in its purity
and richness is at lismas's Drug and Fancy
Store, No. 91 Market street.
HEAD QUARTERS.
I thought I was dreamitig. Quite will with surprise
For en Instant I closed both my mouth and my eyeal
The former, lest speaking the spell I might break;
The latter to prove I was redly awake. '*
Above me, beside me, before me, around,
Was scattered the semblance of all that's. beenfemed
Remarkable, beautifal, laughable, gay,
Since the world was created, e'en down to to-day.
Bach object was fraught with most wonderful grace,
And look where I would, naught but beauty I'd face.
The mist of bewilderment passing away, '
I noticed a camel hitched fast to a dray,
Who quietly pulling his burama along,
Preceded a queer but magnificent throng
Of poets, and princes, musicians and nuns,
Coreleted knights, and soldiers with guns,
Shepherds and students, peasants and kings,
Women in wooden shoes, ladies with wings,
All on a pilgrimage, bound for a shrine
Called—Please guess its name, for their secret's not
mine.
In it grove to their roar an elephant grazed,
While eons and tigers looked on quite amazed
At an ox, who declared—the benevolent beast--
Ho was fattening himself for a Christmas feast.
Some reindeers from Lapland. some birds from Brazil,
Each holding a dlamood, or pearl in Its bill;
Arabian horses, and stately giraffes,
A grum looking bear, which actually laughs,
Alligators' from Egypt, and hogs from Japan,
A monkey which danced quite as well es a man,
American sheep whose musical bass
Were accompanied by donkey's more musical brays,
All Peacettilly shared the delights of that grove,
And seemed ruled by no power stronger than love.
A few steps beyond was assembled a group
Of Chinamen dining on rich kitten soup.
While Japanese Tommy, the witty young noodle,
Regaled them with snatches from old Yankee Doodle.
A venerable schoolmaster sat in a corner,
His name I believe was Nye/tar Dinglesformer,
Teaching twenty-four urchins, asnear him they stood,
Their ah, bay, tasty lesson. The sight did me good.
Behind him !mammal cooly revealed
Its treasures of cannon, swords, lances and shield,
But each from its duty had found a release,
For the motto that ruled, was "In Union there'e peace."
Garibaldi played checkers with kings in disguise,
John Brown promenaded with Henry A. Wise,
And Blue Beard who killed his inquisitive wives
Was giving Paul Pry an account of their lives.
Uncle Tam and his Cabin was there in great state
Surrounded by friends, both the small and the great.
John Gilpin was taking his unlucky ride,
While honest Ben Franklin jogged on by his side.
S me horrid old ogres I saw with surprise,
Rocked dear little babies ; while fairies with eyes
Bright as candles, and dress of snowiest white
Looked on with expression orurest delight.
Swiss cottages, sheep.folde, villages, towns,
Dogs dressed up like dandies, old witches and clowns,
Lord Chesterfield changed to a smart maple Jack,
Whiskerandoes who spring at a touch from a sack,
Victoria's bed with its rich silken fo'ds,
And aweetmeats to heal the most obstinate colds ;
The loveliest brat bons for Christmas trees,
Innumerable puzzles one's patience to tease.
My brains must be swept with a magical broom
E'er I tell an I saw in this wonderful room ;
At length glancing upward, lo l who did I see
But old Santa Claus looking down upon me.
The darling old gentleman looks as of yore,
He makes his head quarters at e.BLIX. , store;
And all that is comical, excellent, rare,
You'll find at his rooms—No. 10 Market Square.

ENORYOUS BUSINESS FOR CINS New YORK MIROILENT.. —
We are happy to inform our fellow-citizens that ono la
one place in our city where the physician, apothecary,
and country merchant, can go and purchais pure 'irises
and Liquors, as pure as imported,end of the best titßity:
We do not intend to give an elaborate descriptlon bf this
marchant'e extensive business, alibough it will well re
pay any stranger or citizen to visit Udelpho Wolfe's ex
tensive Warehouse, Nos. IS. I'o andtl2 Beaver street,
and Nos. 17, 19 and 21, Mare (+Weld street his stock of
Schnapps on band ready for shipment coulth,pot" have
been less than thirty thousand cater, the Brandy, some
ten thousand cases—Vintages of 1836 to 1856 ; and ten
thousand oases of Madeira, Sherry and Port Wine,
Scotch and Irish Whisky, Jamaica and SL Croix Rum,
BOMB very old and equal to any id this country. He also
had three large cellars, filled with Brandy, Wine, kn., in
casks, under Customhouse key, ready for bottling. hir.
Wolfe's sales of Schnapps last year amounted to one
huednd and eighty thousand dozen, and we hope in INS
.than two years he may be equally Lauccessful with his
Etrrndies and Wines.
His Mildness merits the patronage of every lover of Ala
species. Private families who wish pure Wbstil and
Liquors for medical use should send their orders direct
to Mr. Wolfe, - until every Apothecary in the bad mire
no their minds to discard the poisonous stair irom•thelr
shelves, and replace it with Wolfe , s pure Wnnsif and
Lioness.
We understand Mr. Wolfe, for, the aoctmimodatimi of
small dealers in the country, puts up assorted cases of
Wines and Liquors. Bach a man, and such a merchant,
should be sustained against tens of thousands of op:
ponents to the United States, who sell nothing but-Imita
tions, ruinous alike to health and human happiness.
