giaitp HARRISBURG, PA Tuesday Afternoon, January 28, 1562. THE REMAINS of John Carson Gratz, a mem ber of Col. Cake's regiment, whose death at "Camp Northumberland," hear Washington city, was noticed in last evening's Telegraph, will arrive here some time to night in charge of his brother. The funeral will take place from the residence of his grandfather, Mr. Charles C. Carson, in Second street above Locust, at two o'clock to-morrow afternoon. =CCM Tim Dsawmo OF Juitons,—ln the House, on Frithy, a bill was read to permit the drawing of jurors in the presence of a single judge, and the sheriff or his deputy. It proposes to re peal so much of the law known as the Randall law, which rcquires a list of the names, resi dences and occupations of jurors in all the courts, and proposes that it shall be necessary to filo such list with the Prothonotary of the Supreme Court. A BIG ElAuL.—The names of about one hun ered and sixty property-holders and tenants were returned to the Mayor's office yesterday charged with violating the city ordinance requiring them to clear the snow from their pavement within twenty-four hours after its fall. Sum mons' were served upon quite a number of the delinquents to-day, who we presume will be heard Wore his honor the Mayor this evening, and the remainder will be similarly summoned in due course I=C=l THE HIGHWAY ROBBERY LASS —Afore Arrests. (Nicer Campbell yesterday succeeded in arrest. ing four more soldiers at Camp Curtin, charged with being connected with the highway rob bery in the Harrisburg bridge night before last, noticed in last evening's Telegraph. This makes seven who have been arrested on the charge, and is believed to be all who were engaged in the transaction. Their names are as follows : Jan. Bowermaster, Wm. Bower master, Amos Jackson, Jno. P. Moore, Jno. Schuyler, Robert Smith and Scbcenbrist. They have all been committed to answer. The name of the man who was assaulted and rob bed, is Charles Gray, a resident of Luzurne county, and not Williamsport, as erroneously stated in last evening's Telegraph. ANNIVERSARY C ELEBRATION. —Wash ington Ledge No. 1, I. 0. of Good Templars, will cele. brute their ninth anniversary, at their hall, Sons of Temperance building, Second Street, this evening. The committee entrusted with making the arrangements, has performed that duty faithfully, and left nothing undone that will add to the comfort and pleasure of those who may be present on the occasion. A hand some cullation will be served, congratulatory speeches made, temperance odes sang, innocent sports and amusements indulged in, all com bining to afford the participants any amount of enjoyment, and a good social time generally. We are pleased to learn that this order contin ues to be in a flourishing condition in our city, and that notwithstanding the time and atten tion of our country is principally absorbed by the great rebellion, both "Washington" and its sister lodge "Advance," are almost weekly adding new names to their rolls of member ship. THE THREE HIINDRED-DOLLAR LAW. —A bill was read in the Legislature on Friday by Mr. Greenbank, relative to the three Hundred-dol lar exemption law. It provides that the pro visions of that act exempting property from levy and sale, on execution and distress for rent, shall not be construed or held to exempt the specific property, goods or chattles which the plaintiff, in such execution, may have sold to the defendant therein, When such execution is issued to recover the unpaid prices or pur chase money of euch property. The same gen tleman read the following bill relative to set off :—"ln all cases where a party has a claim or debt against another, who likewise has a claim or debt egainat him, both, or either of them, may setoff the claim or debt sufficiently moved against the other from whatever cum or right the mutual debt or claim, on either side, has arisen in law or equity." A CHASE AND CAPTURE.—VatiOUS complaints having been made at the Mayor's office of the noisy and 'boisterous conduct of a party of young men who for some time back have been in the habit of congregating at a house of ill repute in Tanner's alley, officer Campbell last evening was dispatched to that quarter to reg ulate matters. Upon arriving at the designated spot, he found everything all quiet, and think ing perhaps that he had arrived too early, he concealed himself in an adjoining grave-yard and there quietly awaited events. He did not remain long in this position, until he heard the approach of three young men, who proceeded to the door of the aforesaid house of ill repute and dtmanded admittance. 'lbis was refused, whereupon the young men became exceedingly indignant, and threatened to demolish the door and mix up the household and kitchen furni ture generally, when to their surprise they were " surrounded" by officer Campbell, who toted them off towards the Mayor's office. On their way there, however, one of the party succeeded in making his escape, but the officer held on to the remaining two, and brought them safely to the gate leading to the lock-up, where some delay occurring, and taking advantage of a moment Ary release of the officer's grip, they also suddenly darted off, one up Walnut to Third and down Third towards Market, and the other out Walnut street in the direction of the river. Of course, immediate chase was given, and the former, after a short run was captured somewhere near Market street by one of the bystanders and brought back to the lock-up, where he was snugly enconsed. The former was pursued by officer Campbell, and after a run of several squares, finally captured in a wagon somewhere near Locust street and River alley, and also brought to the lock-up and se- cured for the night. Thie morning the party had a hearing before the Mayor, who being ae- cured that it was their first offence, gave them a severe repremand, and then discarghed them with an injunction to " tin no more." ARREST or NEGRO Brorzus.— T A party of ne groat, named Thos. Kean, Geo. Butler, Dick Allen and " Ginger," were arrested last night by the Mayor's police, for riotous conduct at a house somewhere in Short street. They lodged all night in the lock-up, and this morn ing hail a hearing before the Mayor, who, after due consideration of their case, recommitted them for further hearing. Tits Gisorro.—The "ball still goes on" at this cosey little temple sif fun, to the great delight of the crowds who nightly flock thither for amusement. Several new per formers will make their first appearance before a Harrisburg audience this evening, including an accomplished female singer from Philadel phia, so that we anticipate an extra crowded house. -•-•-...--.. Mona Seow.—There was a quite a brisk fall of snow this morning, which continues up to the time of writing - this article, with a vivacity that inspires the best possible hopes for jolly, good sleighing. And then—and then— With a good, free steed and a flowing rein, The track we'll follow fast, Away, away o'er the snowy plain ; And our cares to the winds we cast. Care to the win's—we'll be merry to day, For jovial spirits are we ; To the chime of the bells we are up and away, And our songs are echoing free. COABTING.—The juveniles just now have a nice time on the bills "coasting " The last fall of snow and the subsequent sleet and "freeze" put the "coasting" places in excellent condition for the sport. Some of the older ones have also caught the fever, and in a few instances we observed grown up ladies with their "sparks" shooting down the bill with great velocity and uprorious hilarity. Last evening we noticed a gay procession of sleds at the east end of Capital Park, each surmounted by a bright eyed girl, and drawn by a happy young fellow, who would have tugged the sled for hours happy enough, if he occasionally re ceived a glance from his lady-love. Tim Savart GRAYS.—This company of vete rans are still in Camp Curtin. Their roll em braces the number of eighty-three, rank and file, the minimum demanded to warrant the issuing of commissions to the captain and two Beaten ants. There is a remarkable fact in connection with this comp ny which ids worthy of note, and which cannot be said of any other that has been here as long as it has. The fact to which we allude is this : Notwithstanding the average age of the members is a fraction over fifty-two years, not one has been an occupant of the hospital since the company has been in camp. This is as gratifying as it is true, and must dispel any fears that may be entertained by friends of the Grays resulting from the ex aggerated stories which have been circulated in relation to the healthy location of the camp. =I SANFORD'S OPERA House.—Frank Brower's engagement at this establishment promises to be a winning card to the management. His first appearance, last night, was greeted with a crowded audience, composed of the most in telligent and fashionable of our cilizens ; and the gratification and delight unmitigatedly manifested by them shows how well he suc ceeded in making them happy, in despite of the dullness and all the depressing influences which are operating upon the community at the present time. Mr. Brower will appear again this evening, and we would advise all who are not yet satisfied that this world, even in time of war, has some very pleasant things in it, to go and enjoy the truly artistic entertainments which are presented nightly at the new Opera House. LooLL Lnalinafiox.—The following bill was called up in the House of Representatives yester day, by Mr. Freeland, and passed finally: Ax Acr to allow the taxes on a certain island in the Susquehanna river to be paid i nto the county of Dauphin.

Senator Boughter read the following bill in his place to-day. The subject is of great im portance to the tax-payers, and we hope they will take measures to have the same acted on in such a manner as will lessen the •enormous sums now paid to the police • and magistrates. Mr. Boughter is anxious to consult his constit uents on the subject and will act in accordance with their wishes. The Act reads: Supplement to an act, entitled, An Act to incorporate the city of Harrisburg, in the coun ty of Dauphin, approved March nineteenth, Mum Domini one thousand eight hundred and sixty.

Mr. Freeland, of the House, this morning, read in his place, a bill entitled "An Act to change the place of holding elections in the Second Ward of the city of Harrisburg." The act changes the present place of holding the election in said ward (Herr's Hotel) to the school house at 'the corner of Dewberry alley and Chesnut street. TEN Provost Marshal of Leavenworth, Kan sas, has &cared all persons belonging to mili tary organizations not authorized by Kansas or the United States, to be outlaws and highway men, and that if caught they will be punished according to the decision of a drum head court martial. - Ptimaglnanta eatlg t &graph, etteobap - Afternoon.
