Cruelty to Animals..
The last olkeld act of Mayor Wilson was
the infliction of a fine of five dollars upon a
teamster named Gilmore, of Birmingham, for
beating a mule over. the nose, with the butt of
his whip, because the animal would not "back"
to a certain position. The beating
.was so
cruel and numereiforthat two of the bystand
ers remonstrated with the teamster, but all to
no purpose. They then made complaintbe
fore the Mayor, with the result stated.
In the Diamond, Allegheny, we yesterday
,witnessed.a similar case of brutality, though
not so aggravated in its character. A coun
. . trynian, driving a team attached to a load of
hay, "stalled" In the mud, and seeing that the
off wheel horse refused to pull,, plied the whip
about its hind legs until the lashflew in frog

held the limb tapas if endeavoring to relieve
or escape the pain. At thin juncture, a gen

head and undertook to ' lied them forward.
They Made a start, but he immediately die

Complistieritary Supper to Mayor
The Day-Police, under Mayor Wilson, ten
' dered thatgentionutzt scotoplimentary supper,
last evening, at Vierhiller's, Fifth street, up-
On the occasion of his retiring from office. In
addition to his Ironer, and the police -force,
there were present quite a number of guests,
among whom we noticed-Thomas Steel, Esq.,
• ex• Controller; Mr. lifcCargo, the new'Con- -
' troller, representatives of the Police Commit
, tee, members of the press, and others. The,
supper was gottentip in excellent style, and
was highly creditable to all concerned.
After the vivande had been dispatched,
toasts were dialik, sentiments proposed, and
.responses Made. Mayor Wilson delivered a
neat speech is reply toa sentiment relative to
his administration, in which he took occa
' sion to say that his efforts bad always been
heartily seconded by the police; and to them,
in emsjunction with the aid of the press in all
needed reforms, was he mainly indebted for
the success which attended his administration.
Compliments ware passed betweenthe other
present,-and after.epending_a couple
of boars In a very pleasant and agreeable
manner, the company dispersed.

FORT PITT.
Two Men Missing.-The Hand Street
Bridge Mystery.
We have already noticed that on. Wedne
sday last, about noon, a man was observed to
fall from the railing of the Hand wtreet bridge,
into the river. lie was seen sitting on the
railing, with his face towards the fuot-walk,
and holding on to ono o 1 the posts. On re
leasing his hold ho fell backwards into the
water—rose to the surface once or twice, and
then disappeared from view. It is not known
certainly .who the indiviclnal was, but he is
supposed to be one of two men, who have not
since been seen by their friends.
One of these is John' Swords, a farmer,
residing in one of the townkliipshorth - of Al
legheny. Ile left home on Tuesday evening
last, for the city, and as he has been in the
habit of '''spreeing" considerably of late, his
friends apprehend that he may • hare been
drowned in the manner- - desetibed. He is
about sixty years ofago,,however, and does
not answer the description of the party
drowned. '
Another and more plattlible supposition is,
that, the party drowned irthe son of a dairy
man named foray, and inbject to fits of in
sanity. He was in the ilty on Wednesday,
and was observed near the and of le Hand
street bridge, by his brother, who was driving
a milk cart. Ho was spoken to, and asked to
return home, bUt refused. This was about
noon - of that day, and (if the - yogifg man
really was drowned) the accident must have
happened, shortly afterwards. It is mach
more likely that an insane man would. mount
the railliag, in so dangerous a position, than
that a drank min would attempt each a feat.
'The men are both missing, and their friends,
being unable to fled any clue to their where
abouts, are filled with distress and apprehen
sion. _
St. Mary's Cemetery.
We learn from the report of the Superinten
dent of tkis,Cometerydir. Devlin, that forty
grave lots bare been sold Luring the year, for
$1,701. 'The . total number of grave into sold
up to January let 1662; has 971. Interments
made during , the year, 476. 'Of this number 81
were buried gratuitously. The total number
up to January Ist, 1862, was 5,130 -
The Superintendent. saYs—" The mortgage
given Mr_ R. L. Ewalt to secure the balance of
purchase money due by the Cemetery,amount
mg to $29,300, is now redacted to $21,000. To
meet this they hare outstanding claims due
the Cemetery amounting! to 423,041,52, be
sides twenty building lots unsold, worth
$5,000, and twenty acres of the Cemetery, yet
unoccupied, worth at its original cost $14,000
—making the total assets of the Cemetery
$42,001,57."
As a remedy to relieve the building lots
from the burthen of the mortgage, the Super
intendent suggests that a loan tgo,ooo be
effected by the Board of .Managers to pay Mr.
Ewalt, when a new mortgage could be made
for the amount of the loan, and the twenty
acres yet unoccupied given as collateral secu
rity for its payment in ten years, thereby re
lieving all the building lots from the lien of
the mortgage, and increasing their value, with
a good prosp ect of their speedy sale.

that the House Committee on the District of

abolition of slavery within the District is un
true; whatever the sentiments of the Commit-

the question was referred, reported o rally that,
in his judgment, it was inexpedient to abolish
the peculiar institution at present. No action
was however, taken upon his report; but Mrl
Ashley gave notice that if a majority of the
Committee espoused Mr. Upton's views, he
should submit a minority report to the noose,
