Apopy S.N.s.ix.—.l.Por some time a "side
40w," kep ky eee Mr. goper, has been In
blast on a lot on Penn street, adjoining Tiiml
ble's Hotel, the proprietor of which repre
sented that a giant; weighing seven hundred
pounds, and eight feet high, might be seen in
side, as well as a huge snake, and other curi
osities. Mr. Silas Davis, yesterday morning,
visited the show with a friend, but not seeing
his snakeelip, became dissatisfied, and threat
ened' to whip the proprietor unless he gave
back the thirty cents he had invested. Pro
prietor refused, and Davis went before Alder
man Donaldson and made information against
him for obtaining money under false pretences.
The Alderman held Mr. Soper in two hundred
dollars bail to answer the charge.

LOCAL AFFAIRS.
City Improvement.
For a year or two past our city has taken a
sudden start in the erection of tine buildings.
These we have noticed in our columns from time
to time as they progressed. Fifth street, especi
ally, has taken the lead in this respect. Such
buildings as the Bank Block, Masonic Hall, Odd
Fellows Hall, Davis and the Dispatch Building,
the buildings erected by Mr. A. Morton, and
those nearly completed by Mr. Charles Brewer,
would be a credit to any city in the country.
To these, might, with propriety, be added
the Pittsburgh Theatre which has recently
been re-juvenated by Col. Simpson, the pro
prietor, and the Exchange Bank, both of which
are elegant and substantial buildings.
A new and most magnificent structure is now
in progress between the Postoffice and the Dis
patch Building. The proprietor is Mr. Win.
M. Lyon, a gentleman of large means, who,
we understan . a, is determined to make a model
structure of this new building. The architect
is Mr. C. Bartberger, who planned the Bank
Block, and his plans and drawings show that
this new work is to be both sdbstantial and ele
gant, as, indeed, is everything in the way of
ornamental architecture which he has designed
in our city.
We understand that Messrs. Hunt S Miner,
tbe proprietors of the great wholesale and re
tail literary depot in Masonic Hall, have
leased the building, which they expect will be
ready for occupancy before the commence
ment of the new year. Tliey will occupy the
ground floor. Their present establishment, in
Masonic Hall. is one of the largest, most com
modious and elegant bookstores in the Union,
but this will far surpass it. Their present
room is one hundred and six by seventeen
feet; their new one will be one hundred and
thirty by thirty, and will be finished end fur
nished in the best style. They are gentlemen
of enterprise, and we hazard nothing in say
ing that, when in their new building, they can
boast the finest periodical store in the United
States.
The cellar, which is large, airy and commo
dious in its construction, will be fitted up in
the most splendid manner as a first class res
taurant, over which that prince of caterers and
of good follows, Colonel Joseph Pricker, will
preside. The Colonel has, for a couple of
years, kept a most capital establishment in
Masonic Hall, but his new location will afford
him every necessary lacility fur accommoda
ting the public in tip-top style.
The second story is to be occupied by Mr.
William Pinkerton, as a billiard saloon. It
will be supplied with the best tabl to be had
in the Union, and fitted up in the most mod
ern style.
Here we are to have food for the body, food
food for the mind, and amusement, all under
one roof, and all supplied by enterprising,
pciurtegus and agreeable gentlemen, who thor
oughly uodersfand their bilsiness, and will
spare neither attention nor expense to please
the public. It is our opinion that this same
public will be pleased when Messrs. Hunt &
Miner, Colonel Pricker and Mr. Pinkerton
have their arrangements completed.
PASSENGER RAILWAYS.—The City Councils
last night, as may be seen by reference to their
proceedings, passed ordinances granting the
right of way to the Pittsburgh and Birming
hatMEasshriger Railway Company, and RIF.O
the Pittsburgh and East Liberty Company, for
the - construction of their roads through the
streets of the city. The grapt to the East
Liberty Road is a liberal one, and encumbered
by no unusual restrictions. The company will
no doubt accept it and proceed under its pro
visions.
In the grant to the Birmingham road there
is a provision which we find in the grant to no
other road. It is that the per centage to the
city shall be calculated upon the net profits of
the company, but in calculating , the net pr o titi,
payments on account of principal or interest
of money borrowed for the construction of the
road are excluded. This is an unusual pro
vision, and has not been demanded from any
other road. An attempt was made to strike it
out., on motion of Captain Ward, in the Se
ecc cofincil, which failed. In effect, it is un
&pal. titration, Other mans are recoured to
pay a per centage upon their net profits only—
this mie.upon its net profits and cost of con
struction,in case it borrows the money to build.
This strikes us as unfair. What is sauce for
the goose, should be sauce for the gander.'

The system of banking, where the stock
holders are individually liable togepositurs. is
- eery popidar'in this city. The, farmers' De
posit Bank, the Pittsburgh Trust Company,
the Iron City Trust Company, are institu
tions of this class, and enjoy the confidence
of the business -ommunity. About two
years ago another banking company of the
same class was organized, C. Hanson Love,
