" ' Slid fobbed of 112,840 !
This morning, bot*sen dv and Or. o'clock,
Mr. D. lif; Berhour,ei well kaewn busineas
man, residing On the Perrysville plank road,
near the Green Tree tavern, about three miles
north of Allegheny olty, appeared , bolero
Mayor Sawyer and stated that he had Leen
seised on Penn street,* short distance below
St. Clair, by two men, who robbed him of •
package of twenty dollar treasury notes,
amounting In the aggregato to $2,840. The
drew:Wanes, of the of were thus detailed
by Mr. Barbour:
He bad teen at Washington City, where he
had obtained the money on account of flour
ammiabod to the Government, end reached
ibis city , at one o'clock this morning, by the
Pennsylvania Railroad. He had previously
telegraphed to his friends here that he would
arrive on that train, and directed them to
have his horseand buggy at Mobtuter's livery
stable, in Waiting to convey him home. Im
mediately on his arrival, he started down to
- the livery stable, but found no one up, and,
after rapping in vain for some time, he coo
eluded to take his carpet sack to the toll house
of the St. Clair Street Bridge, and go out
home on foot. - He started from the stable
with this lateutlon, and while paseing
Hail k Speer's warehouse, on Penn
street, ,he - was accosted by two- men--ons
a large man, with • high crowned hat, end
the other small, with a low hat. The larger
one seised him by the cravat, and twisted it
tightly round his neck, while the oth selat ed
a t
in throwing him down. While on the ground,
with their. knees upon his chest, they' tore
open his 'mat and vest, and took from as 'in
side pocket, in the left side of his coat. the
package of notes, which had been wrapped up
in • piece of newspaper. They then left him,
and as he raised up on .his side, ho lOW them
walk away. He was unable to make any out
cry, and soon after. .getting upon his feet,. ho
met a watchman, who conveyed him to the
Mayer's office.
Birbour'i clothes were oonsiderablY
'torn, particularly about the-packets,. and a
bole was 'discovered in his omit, as though a
.knife had been thrust through it. His per
'son was not injured In the slightest, not even
o scratch being visible. After relating, the
eireemstanees of the robbery to the Mayor,
be drove out horse, and soon after returned and
made an. information In blank against the
parties who robbed him. He is unable to
describe their feitures, however, and thinks
be..would bet be able to identify either of
them. Under these circumstances, it is hard
ly possible that the pollee will bo able: to ob
tain any olue.to the robbers.
Sunday Liquor Bolling in Allegheny.
The law in reference to Sunday liquor sell
ing is constantly violated in Allegheny, not
withstanding the efforts of the police lo sup
press the evil. - A . certiti'n class of boor, sellers
seem to newlfiunday afterhoon as not a whit
more snored t h an Saturday, and a much more
. .
desirable season for dealing out • and pouring
in the lager. This may suit their own pecu
liar habits and tastes, but the fact that it is a
flagrant Violation of law should exert, a re
straining influence, and force a change ;of
sustain. Quito a number of beer halls wire
open on Sunday last, and we are not certain
that the niajoirty of them are aeoeslible to
manic' customers on every Sunday in the year.
It is diflleult,however; for the
. police to M
ans there n violatiens, unio they assume the
garb of spies, which, although right and
proper In the eye of the law, is by no means
agreeable: Minos it le that the offenders go
unpunished until some injured wife or indig
nant neighbor makes an information.
Messrs. Lutz * Wale, who keep a beer hall
at thafoot Troy. hill; Henry Herd, where 4-
loon U on Third street, - above Bast lane Ar.
Wessell, of.the Fourth Ward, bare each been
arrested upon infonration preferred before
Mayor Dram: `for "selling liquor .on;Seindriy
last, and held to answer a hearing this even
ing. Other parties will doubtless be arrested,
and if the evil is not abatat it will do no
harm to make an example new then, by
way of letting offenders, know that the law

-Death from Intemperance.
Coroner ideating was called to-day to hold
an inquest upon the, body of Mr*. Margaret
Patterson, wife of Robert Patterson, residing
on Pennsylvania avenue, in the Eighth ward.
The testimony developed the follewieg facts •
Mr. Patterson left h o e at six o'cleek Tues
day morning, to go up work. On returning,
in the evening, he foudd his wife lying dead
on the door, and his two children sitting by
the Ere, whioh was nearly out. The children
imagined that their mother was sleeping, and
stated that she had been drinking from a
bottle which she kept hid under the bed.
ft was in evidence that she had been drink
ing to excess for several months, and was
very mush, debilitated from disease. The
jury found a verdict of "death from intem
perance and disease." The deceased was
about thirty-live years of age, and the mother
of three children, the eldest of whom was
hired out. She was at one time highly re
tepeoted, and her sad end is 'attributed to do
!nestle troubles and diffieulties.
The Late Col. Murray.
The telegraph has already announced the
death of 001. Wm. G. Murray, of the Eighty
fourth_ Pennsylvania Regiment. He fell
while gallantly leading his regiment In the
late battle at Winehester. Col. Murray, on
the deelaraiion of war . ay/dug Mexico, raised
a volunteer company in the interior of the
Btate,and served with ability and distinction
throughout the entire campaign. At the close
of the war he settled In Hollidaysburg, where
he married, but his wife died some months
sines. Being a prominent Democrat, he hold
the office of postmaster under President Bu
chanan, and in the late Presidential campaign
was an ardent supporter of the traitor Brook-
Inridge. True to his flag, however, he threw
aside politics when treason reared its head,
and quickly responded to the call of President
Lincoln. He his coaled his devotion to his
country with his blood, and his loss is re
gretted alike by the army and the State at
Hf. expected to arrive at
Hoilldaysl

Strange a. .se, 'flunks'
have of late bacon' a very "fashionable"
place for pickpooke . Here persons are lets
insplaious than any hero else, and it is the
last.plaCe on earth w ere an honest man would
expect to encounter thief. During the last
session of the Metb o lit Conference, held in
Christ Church, on M o day evening, at least
half a dozen pow s —mostly ladies—had
their pockets plaited; and so expertly was the
work done that the I se ra knew nothing of the
larceny until they ere on tho way home.
Methodist ministers re not noted for the six*
of their purses, but t hey for their poverty,
and one would suppo that the light-fingered
gentry would "pass lii on the other side," but
it would seem that piokpolikets, like govern
ment agents, are seeking new objeots of tax
ation. The words of caution,"Look oat for
Pickpockets!" so conspicionaldisplayed about
railroad depots, auction bonzes, theatres, etc.,
will. soon have to be transferred to church
doors, if the rascals do not mend their morals
and quit going to church I
Ssooctxo Acornear.—Lastevening, a little
daughter of Mr. Sullivan, tailor, residing on
Tunnel street, was burned in a horrible man
ner, by her clothe. taking fire. The child' is
about two years old, and while her soother

proached the dre and was soon enveloped in
flames. The mother 'hearing screaum, has

dames contd.!), mothered 'the body was se
shockingly burned that Wets despaired of.

since the oommencement of the rebellion.
Captain Shriver, Aid and Inspector of Glen.
Shields' division, while riding to the crest of
the hill, to the left of the stone edge, in oom
pany with two orderlies, wee confronted by
five rebel cavalry, who emptied their revolrers,
killing the two orderlies; Capt. Shriver charg
ed on them, running one through to the hilt
of 'the sword, and receiving a ball through his
cap, but he escaped unhurt.
(apt. Perkins, the chief of General Banks'
staff, was mainly instrumental in planning
the-attack, and performed deeds of skill and
valor.
The twelve rebel regiments engaged ware
all'Virginians, including the let, 2ed, 4th,
13th, 23d, 42nd and 32nd Virginia regiments,
aid one provisional acid one Irhis' regiment.

and two eight gun batteries!, one six gun bat
tery and me four VIII battery, making twenty
six guns, among which were some of the cap

the head.
A youthful iebel fell, receiving two wounds
in the breast. Wien he was approached by
, one of oar offline - he - inquired' if the °Moor
knew Gem. Banks. Ile received an atirniative
reply. Tell him I want to take the_oeth of
allegiance, said the bey, for I hare three
brothers in the Federal mule. and I want
them to know that I die true to the Union.
Gen. Shields' arm was badly shattered, and
owing to the imperfect utting it lint re
ceived, he must undergo the painful operation
of having it reset.

contracts fall in. He opposed any new con
tract for America, and favored open competi
