AcQuirrante,--Private John Brandt, of the First
City Zenaves, tried at Reading recently for shoot
ing a deserter, while acting in the capacity of
provost guard, was acquitted.
OUT or PRISON.—The German barber who was
arrested and imprisoned last Saturday on a charge
of assault and battery with intent to kill, is again
at liberty, having been released on bail.
Tam SHAD MAAKlM—Notwithstanding the in
creased supply of shad in our market there is no
material decline in prices. The beat quality still
command seventy-five cents per pair, at which
rate a large number were disposed of this morning.
Some of small size and inferior quality sold for two
shillings each.
Fos RZADING.—A delegation of twenty-five or
thirty ardent and enthusiastic "copperheads" of
this oity left yesterday afternoon for Reading, to
participate in the grand mass meeting of the De
mocracy of old Berks last evening. The "pet
lambs" of the Fourth Ward were largely represen
ted in the visiting delegation.
CONFEDERATE PROONERS:-Within a few days
large numbers of Confederate prisoners have
passed southward over the Pennsylvania and
Northern Central railroads, and were taken to For
tress Monroe for exehange. There are still more
to come. The trains containing these prisoners
do not reach our oily, but pass down the other
side of the river.
Win DUCKS.—For two or three days past large
numbers of wild ducks have dotted the surface of
the Susquehanna river in this vicinity, and no
doubt many of them have been bagged by the
"crack shots" of cur city. Of the various kinds of
ducks that frequent the waters in this region,
sportsmen inform us that "blue bills" are the most
numerous at the pr'esent time.
Fesr Darvma.--Yesterday afternoon the driver
of a "fast nag" paseed up Second street at 2.40
speed. Several children who were playing on the
street narrowly escaped being run over. Men :vino
persist in converting our main thorouinfares into
trotting parks to show off tll2 superior quality of
their steeds, should be arrested for violation of the
ordinance prohibiting such dangerous exhibitions.
AN OLD Souninn DEAD.—Another of the soldiers
who took an active part in the last war with En
gland, Mr. Daniel Hain, died at his residence in
Middle Paxton township on Monday last, at the
advanced., age of seventy-seven years. The de
ceased was widely known and highly respected.
His funeral takes place tp-day, and will be attended
by his surviving companions-in-arms residing in
this vicinity.
NOTICE is hereby given to the supervisor of the
Third ward, that unless he promptly removes the
piles of dirt deposited on the north aide of Market
Meet, he will be indicted for maintaining a nui
sance. E ltuntsus %rum.
[The citizens of Third street have a similar com
plaint to make, the piles of dirt scraped up last
week remaining as so many monuments to the in
efficiency of the supervisor. We trust the street
committee will stir up the scavenger of the middle
district and have the nuisance promptly abated.]
Assents AND Ilt.trranir.—Calvin Ray was before
Alderman Kline yesterday, charged with having
committed assault and battery on John Shoop.
The affair originated in a difficulty between the
parties about a money transaction. Angry words
were exchanged, and Shoop finally called Ray a
liar, whereupon the latter laid his hand upon
Sloop in a menacing manner, but did not strike
him. A prosecution was the result, and Ray had
to enter bail for his appearance at the April term.
Trivial cases of this kind, which are of snob fre
quent occurrence, ought to be ruled out of court.
MOOTUART AGAIN AT LANGS. — This notorious
horse-thief, whose recent arrest and confinement
in the Williamsport prison was noticed in our col
umns, is again at large, having broken jail on the
night of the 17th inst. The chief of police yes
terday received a descriptive handbill from the
sheriff of Lycoming county, offering a reward of
gen:kV-five dollars for his arrest But for the in
judicious action of Governor Curtin in pardoning
this accomplished scoundrel, he would still be an
inmate of our county prison. Al attempts to as
certain his whereabouts have thus far proved abor
tive, and thb probability is that he will never be
Captured. Meothart is not only a fugitive from
'justice, but a deserter from the Eighteenth United
States infantry.
Dasomcso.—Some two weeks ago a man named
Amos Cowan was found loitering about the pre.
mos of David•Mumma, Eaq., at a late hour of
:be night, under suspicious circumstances. Ile
lvas repeatedly ordered to leave but refused to do
RI, and finally assaulted Mr. Mumma in a violent
xanner, being under the influence of liquor at the
With the assistance of a man in his employ
Mr. Mamma succeeded in securing the nocturnal
:atelier and conveyed him to the lock-up. The next
morning Cowan was arraigned for assault and bat
zeri, and committed to prison for trial, where be
rosined until yesterday morning, when he was re
-450d by the consent of the prosecutor, the fact
laringbeen established that he is not altogether of
rill " mind. Cowan is a, married man, and has a
in the Sixth ward partially dependent -upon
htm for support. He has never - been known to in
lalge in dishonest practices, and whey sober is rep
rated as a quiet and inoffensive man.

yesterday, delegates being present from all the

for Messrs. Seiler and Raymond failed to reach

amidst great enthusiasm on the part of the dele
gates and spectators

the brilliant talents and the unblemished honor
which distinguish the eharacter of the gamble
BUSIER CLYMER, are fully appreciated, by the De

nomination of the Hon. Hiester Clymer.
Resolved, That Fred. Lauman, John Wiso and

ferees from the county of Dauphin.
The convention then adjourned.
MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.—OR Thursday of
last week a man named Henry Miller arrived here,
in company WWI his ton, a lad about fourteen
years of age, from Buffalo, New York. The boy
states that they stopped at a certain boarding
house, and that on Friday morning his father
famished him with money and sent him out to
purchase a gun, promising to meet him at the de
pot in the course of an hour or two. The father
failed to keep his appointment, and has not been
seen or heard of since. The•child thus left alone
among strangers was taken in and cared for by a
humane gentleman of this city, and still remains
here. He alleges that his father had a considera
ble sum of money in his possession._ The keeper
of the boarding house above alluded to, when
called upon, indignantly denied that Miller and
the boy had stopped there. Nearly one week
has now elapsed since the disappearance of Mi!.
ler, and the affair is still involved in inexplicable
mystery. We learn that the Mayor has determined
upon a thorough investigation of the affair, which,
it is to be hoped, will result in some satisfectery
developments.
After writing the foregoing yesterday afternoon,
young Miller was taken befere Mayor Roumfort
and again searchingly interrogated, but nothing
was elicited tending to throw light upon the mys
terious occurrence. The boy repeated his former
story, and insisted that he and his father had put up
at a boarding house somewhere near the railroad.
Some persons believe the lad's story to be tame,
and others are disposed to regard it as a fabrica
tion. We are at a loss to conjecture what motive
a child of his age could have in deceiving and
humbugging the public'. The matter is still un
dergoing investigation;
ALLEGED DESERTER.-011 Monday night the pro
vost guard arrested Howard Griffith, alias Dunbar,
.by order of the military authorities, charged with
having deserted from the United States army on
the day prior to the battle of Winchester. He
tame to this city three or four months ago and has
continued to reside here with his mother. Hie
story is, that he was taken prisoner and paroled,
and subsequently discharged from the service, but
he has no documents to sustain his statement. In
formation recently furnished the military author'.
ties by officers of his company and regiment clearly
establishes the fact of his desertion. Having re
ceived an intimation that his arrest was contem
plated, he bad made arrangements to leave on the
western train at three o'clook yesterday morning,
on being informed of which a squad of the provost
guard proceeded to the residence of his mother on
Monday night and captured him. After a bearing
before Alderman kline, Griffith was committed to
prison for safe keeping until yesterday morning,
when he was taken in charge by the provost mar
ad. This fellow has rendered himself somewhat
notorious in our city by his rowdy-like conduct,
was frequently before Mayor Kepner on various
charges, and recently served a term in prison for
riotous and disorderly conduct at the Fourth Street
Bethel during time of religious service.
BODY Fouan.—The body of George Reckord ,
drowned below the railroad bridge on Saturday
evening last, was found near the river shore, ap
posite the Paxton furnace, a short distance below
the city, yesterday forenoon. Some persons who
were in search of it discovered the boots of the
unfortunate south projecting from the water, and
on examination found that the body had lodged
on a pile of cinders The funeral of the deceased
will take place from the residence of his father,
Mr. Thomas J. Reckon', in Front street below
Mulberry, this afternoon at five o'clock. The .
friends of the family are invited to attend without
further notice. The deeply afflicted parents have
the warm sympathies of this entire community. -
BOLD HIGHWAY Ronnzny.—About twelve o'clock
on Saturday night a Mr. Brubaker was stopped on
the turnpike near Millersville, Lancaster county,
by a desperado in military uniform, who seised the
bridle of his horse, and presenting a revolver de
manded his money. Mr. Brubaker being on
horseback and unarmed, was unable to defend
himself, and handed the robber his pocket book,
which contained about six dollars. The robber
perceiving that his victim carried a gold watch
demanded it also, and, still presenting the pistol,
let go the reins and attempted to grab the watoh,
when Mr. 8., seeing that his horse was free, slipped
his foot from the stirrup and gave the robber a
kick on' the hand which sent the pistol flying over
his head and discharged one of the loads, which
started hie horse at a full gallop. The highway
man called after him to stop, but being glad to get
rid of such company he paid no heed to the order,
and escaped without any further loss than that of
his pocket book and the small sum it contained.
Tan NNE BREAKING} CASE.—Car readers will
recollect that several days ago complaint was made
to Alderman Kline against Mrs. Jane Bostgen for
visiting the house of a Mr. Holtzberger in the
Sixth ward, in company with a man who repre
sented himself as a constable, and breaking open
the trunk of Miss Leah J. Ferree, on pretense of
aerating for stolen goods. Mrs. Bostgen gave
bail for her appearance at court to answer the
charge. Subsequent to this proceeding Miss Fer
ree ascertained that- John Stouffer was the indi
vidual who "played constable" on the occasion,
and yesterday she instituted suit against him also
for illegal and forcible opening and search of her
trunk. Alderman Kline issued to the chief of
police a warrant for Stouffer's arrest, who subse
quently entered bail for his appearance at the
approaching term of court.
GREAT BARGAINS.—TwenIy per cent. Saved.—ln

Facts About Brandreth's Pills.
NEW CASTLE, WESTCHESTER CO., N. Y., Oct. 23,18b2.
his. Q. TEN EYCK SusLnos i Editor Sing Sing Retpubli-
WM
Dear Sir—l would state that I was induced to use
BRANDRETIPS PILLS through the recommendation of
John R. Swift, of Croton, Westchester County, who was
entirely restored to health by their use. He was sick
for some two years, very costive and dyspeprie, and he
tried everything, but was not relieved. Finally, he took
one Brandreth's Pill every day for a week, and a dose of
six Pills every day for three dam and then took one
Pill every day, with occasional donee of six." In one
month he was able to go to work, and in three months
was well, gaining 40 pounds in weight.
Yours truly, EDWARD PURDY.
Wrsrcnesrza COUNTS', OS.
Edward Purdy. being duly sworn, says that he resides
in the tewn of New Castle ; that some years ago he wan
very sick with a sore on his leg, which had been run
ning for over Ave years; that he was also muck die-
Mooed by a pain in his cheet,as i,besidee. wan very cos
tive and dyspeptic ; that after vying various remedies
and many physicians, he commended using birendretb's
