HOLIDAY Booss.—The evidences of tho ap
proach of the holidays are seen everywhere,
but they , are strikingly manifest on a visit to
the establishment of Clark, at No. 63 Market
street, whose business, although ho has, ever
since his opening, been in the full tide of suc
cess, has more than doubled in the last ten
days. His establishment is almost constantly
crowded by persons purchasing their holiday
gifts for friends. We can readily discover why
this is, for it is astonishing in how brief a pe
riod the public discover what is to their best
interests. By purchasing a book here, the
. buyer is physically certain of getting along
with it a gift, thus securing two for the price
of one. Good books are always acceptable
presents; and the as lortment here is such as to .
please all, while the gifts are in such infinite
variety that all must be suited, and they are
so liberally distributed as to leave no room for
complaint. We would therefore advise all
who purpose making presentstions on Christ
mas day to call and see Mr.' Clark's stock ; we
are quite sure they will not leave without pur
chasing something.
PoexPorrzn.—ln the District Court, on Sat
urday, the rule granted on J. K. Edgerton,
receiver of the Pittsburgh, „Fort Wayne and
Chicago Railroad, to show cause why he should
not be attached for obstructing T. Haskins Du
Puy, sequestrator of the same, in the discharge
of his duty, was.called up, and postponed, by
consent of counsel. until next Saturday, when
the application of the ;sequestrator to be al
lowed to pay the employees of the reed for ser
vices during .November, and up to December
9th, will also be acted upon.

Terrible Effects of Liquor.
About eight o'clock on Saturday morning, a
person crossing the Acqueduct to Allegheny,
observed, ,lying on the shore at this end, upon
a pile of rocksmear the first pier, the body of a
man. He informed the toll-collector, Mr.
Mackey; who, upon examination, found him
dead. The body was convoyed to the watch
house, where an inquest was held by Coroner
Bostwick, which showed that the deceased was
a young man of twenty-three or twenty-four
year" of age, named Isaac Hare, residing at
NG. 17 Marbury street. He was a lithograph
erlby trade,and worked for Wm. Sell uchmann,
wha identified him. It would appear that he
had been addicted to the frequent use of liquor,
and that between eight and nine o'clook on
Friday - evening he had paid his toll at this end
of, the .A.cqueduct, saying he was going to his
bore on Ohio street, after which time nothing
was seen of him until the finding of his body
on Saturday morning. The toll-collector said
he was very much intoxicated when ho saw him,
and it is supposed that he fell over the railing,
and Struck his head against the rocks below.
He presented a frightful spectacle, his head be
ing crushed to a jelly, and his skull broken in
small pieces. His right jaw was also fractured,
and his face much bruised. The jury found a
verdict in accordance with the facts. Deceased
was a married man, and leaves a wife and one
child.

FAYETTE Counmr..-L,Sometime in February,
1854, Dr. S. M. Sing was called upon to per
form an operation on the person of Mrs.
Adonis, residing near Monongahela city.
She was afflicted with the dropsy. or, as medi
cal men term it., asciles, and the doctor drew
front, her fourteen gallons of water; from that
time to January, 1858, he drew from her one
hundred and fourteen and a half gallons, and
up to the 18th of October last, had taken six
hundred and twenty-eight gallons, two quarts,
or nearly twenty barrels. Mrs Adams is about
forty-five years old, is in the enjoyment of tol
erable good health, and should nothing un
usual occur, bids fair to live for years yet.
Her health is much better now than when the
first operation was performed —The Fayette
county Teachers' Institute will hold its next
meeting at the Town Hall, Brownsville, com
mencing on Thursday, December 29th, A. 51.
—Mr. John Robbins, a Drum Major in the
war of 1812, and a respectable citizen of Union
town, died on Wedn es day, at the advanced age
. of seventy-nine years.
CENTRE Co.—A destructive fire occurred In

inating in the bake house of Mr. Charles
Brown. The grocery and dwelling of Mr .
Brown, and the residence of Mr. May were
burned. The parsonage of the Catholic Church
was for two hours in imminent danger, but was
saved by the super-human efforts of the citi
zens. Mr. May was fully insured. Mr. Brown
lost all.
Breen Co.—The Fostoria foundling, John
Culvert, whose paternity and maternity were
the subject of much speculation here,died at the
residence of Mr. Miller,who was rearing it., at

let fever. One of Mr. Miller's own children
died on the following day.
BEDFORD Co.—On Wednesday night of hist
week, between the hours of eleven and twelve
o'clock, the dwelling house of Mr. George Bid
dle in - Bedford township, took fire, and those
within the house were scarcely able to escape
with their lives. There was a considerable
quantity of grain and flour stored away in the
house, all of which was consumed. Mr. Bid
dle's loss is estimated at about $l,OOO, on which
there was no insurance.

ler county met in Convention on the sth fast,
and appointed John Graham and John T. Bard,
Esqs.,.Delegates to the 4th of March Conven
tion, with instructions to support Hon. Alfred

the Ist inst.,
by W. H. Brown, containing ex
ceptions to the petition asking for the appoint
ment of aboard of viewers to assess the damage"
oft he Pittsburgh and Connellsville Railroad,
and also to their report, alleging that some of the
viewers were.not disinterested parties, (one of
them, Mr. Dixon, owning a tract of land lying
close to the road,) that the whole proceeding
was irregular, the petition being neither signed
by any representative of the Pittsburgh and
Connellaville Railroad, nor even sworn to ; also
that alterations were made in the report after
the view. Mr. Swartzwelder stated that Mr.
Sewell, the Solicitor of the Company, was not
preser.t; and that gentleman having filed the
petition, he (Mr. S., though employed to assist
in the case,) could not argue it, the data being
in the hands of Mr. Sewell. The argument
was accordingly postponed until next Saturday,
Mr. Swartzwelder refusing to take the respon
sibility of accepting or rejecting an offer of Mr.
Woods to submit the matter to the Court with
out argument.

DISASTROUS FIRE
Cracker Factory Destroyed—Loss $20.001
At about half past ten o'clock on'Saturday
evening, the sound of fire bells, so frequently
called into requisition of late, aroused the early
retiring portion of our citizens from their rest,
and attracted all in the streets in the direction
of a brilliant light in the Second Ward, which,
on a nearer approach, Was discovered to ema
nate from the large building on First street,
between Cherry alley and grant street, occu
pied as a bread and cracker factory by Messrs.
S. Barnes & Co. The engines were soon on
the ground, but the flames, were then bursting
forth from, the upper part of the huge pile,
and every 'effort in the direction of saving the
building being evidently useless, the firemen
directed their attention to saving the adjoining
property, which they succeeded in doing,
though fora time the foundry of Anderson 4;
Phillips, opposite, and the bottling establish
ment of John Ogden, adjoining the burning
building on the side nearest the alley, were in
imminent danger. The back buildings of some
of the dwelling houses on Second street, in the
rear of the factory, took fire from the extreme
heat and the•falling flakes, but by active exer
tion the flames were prevented from spreading
to the dwellings themselves.
Nothwithstanding the wretched condition
of the lids°, our firemen worked manfully,
succeeding, as we have stated, in saving prop
erty in such close proximity that its destruc
tion seemed inevitable.
Many families residing in the vicinity re
moved their goods into the street, where they
were thoroughly drenched, some furniture be
ing broken, as usual, in the haste of removal.
The whole interior of the factory was con
sumed, leaving only the bare wall. It is not
certain how the fire originated. It was dis
covered in the second story of that part of the
building nearest Grant street, and probably
caught from ono of the ovens.
Tho building, which was of brick, 80 feet
front on First street, by perhaps 100 in depth,
and three stories high, was an old one, erected
some twelve years since, by James D. Verner,
and was worth probably $lO,OOO. Tho build.
ing bad been leased to Messrs. S. Barnes et Co.,
who 10 a large business in bread and crackers.
The machinery, including the engine, belonged
to them, and they had besides, a largo stock of
crackers in the building, and a considerable
quantity of flour. Their loss will most proba
bly reach $lO,OOO. We regret exceedingly
to learn that neither Mr. Verner nor Messrs.
Barnes & Co. had any insurance, as the build
ing was thought perfectly safe. The loss on the
adjoining buildings, and those on Second
street, is small.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY.—On the night of
November 30th, the gift book establishment of
James Kennedy, on St. Clair street, near the
bridge, was entered and a quantity of jewelry,
comprising fifteen gold, silver and composition
watches, and other articles, to tho value of
$4OO, stolen therefrom. No trace was discov
ered of the thieves, until a few days since,
when the Mayor, who was cognizant of the
circumstances, received a despatch .from H.
Bean, a hotel-keeper at Bellair, Ohio, who
stated that two men had been raffling jewelry
at his housh • under suspicious circumstances.
The Mayor telegraphed for a description of
the parties, which not being sent, he placed a
warrant in the hands of Mr. Kennedy; who
went to Bellair. On Friday evening Mr. Ken-
Tway telegraphed home that he had succeeded
in arresting the thief and recovering a portion
of the jewelry. Mr. Kennedy was expectedto
reach the city with his prisoner on Saturday
night, but did not arrive.
DITORCE nir WHOLESALE.—On Saturday
morning, in the Court of Common Pleas, six
divorces were ranted by the bench, the ground
in all cases being desertion or cruel treatment,
viz: Sarah Ann Sarber from John B. Sarber
Mary Ann Russell from William Gillmore
Russell ; John Bauer from Mary Ann Bauer ;
Henry Wehrle from Annie Wehrle; Lynd
AFGoffin from Julia M . Goffin, and Rosalie
Spring from Frederick Spring. Applications
of this character are very frequent in our
county, but unless there is good ground they
are not granted.
REPUBLICAN .NOItINA.T/Oss.—The Republi
can nominations for ward officers and councils
men took place on Saturday, and notwithstand
ing the Inclement weather, excited considera
ble interest. In nearly all the wards, candi
dates for council, assessor, constable, Judges
and inspectors of election were placed
ination. In the Second ward, Thomas Steele
and James Owston were nominated for Alder
men. - •
COMPLIMENTARY REMARKS.--At the open
ing of the Court of Common l'lnas on Satur
day morning, when Judge 'Mellon was about
taking his seat on the bench, the venerable
Judge Shaler took occasion to make some com
plimentary remarks touching the accession of
the former to the position he now occupied,
referring to the fact that Judge Mellon had
been a law student in his office. He expressed
the greatest confidence in the legal attainments
of the new Judge, and felt sure he would re
flect the honor and dignity of his office. .ludo
Mellon replied in brief terms, by saying in
substance that if, during his judicial career, he
could imitate the course of the learned and
venerable Judge while he was on the bench, he
should be perfectfully satisfied, and would re
tire with a full canfidence in his administra
tion of the law. This was a pleasant little in
terlude in the dry proceedings of the court, and
refreshed all who were present.
CHARGE OF ASSAULT WITII INTENT TO KILL.
—On Saturday, Mayor Weaver committed to
jail John Francis Gorman, charged with the
above offense, on oath of Joshua Williams, a
colored man, who states that while at a drink
ing saloon on the corner of Water and Wood
streets, on Friday, Gorman raised a difficulty
with him, and, with a dozen others, followed
him into the street, armed with brick-bats.
Ho endeavored to escape by a nimble use of his
legs, but Gorman overtook him, threw him
down, and struck him in the eye with a brick,
inflicting a serious wound. Gorman was ar
rested by officer Moon. on an information made
by Williams, and, after a hearing, fully com
mitted for trial.
LEAVE TO AMEND.—In the matter of the
application of John B. McDonugh for the
benefit of the insolvent act, argued on Satur
day, 10th inst, in the Court of Common Pleas.
Judge Mellon, on Saturday, read and filed an
opinion, giving the petioner leave to amend
his petition, which was defective in verification
and statement. This ease has become chronic
in our Courts, and we shall be relieved when
it is off the argument list.
nr n Don.—On Friday, as Mr. Jar.
O'Connor, of Wylie =treet, was passing along
Dinwiddio street, he was attacked by a vicious
dog, which bit him on the heel, Inflicting a
wound which bled so profusely MA to render tis
condition critical. On Saturday, the owner of
the dog, being informed of the circumstance,
put an end to its existence.

THIRTY-SIXTH CONGRESS
FIRST SESSION
WASIIINGTON CITY, December 17.—Mr. Lar
ibee has sent to the Clerk's table a copy of the
Milwaukee Free Democrat, from which the
latter read the proceedings of a meeting pur
porting to be held by German adopted citizens,
in which sympathy is expressed for John
Brown, holding him as noble-hearted and re -
elute, and fit to be hold up by the friends and
champions of freedom for the imitation of man.
kind, and, also saying that adopted citizens
are hostile to tyranny of every kind. Mr.
Laribee remarked that if any of his colleagues
did not recognize that paper as Republican, lot
them say so. At his request an editorial was
read in the same paper, in spirit with the pro
ceedings of the meeting. He was satisfied that
an honorable Senator from Wisconslis, Mr.
Doolittle, was mistaken when he said there
was no newspaper in that State which sup
ported and sustained Jan Brown's invasion of
Virginia. He thought, however, that at that
time the fact to which he had just referred had
not been brought to Mr. Doolittle's attention.
Mr. Laribee needed not to he informed, as he
had been, by the leading German citizeiiS,of
Wisconsin, ttat such were not their opinions.
He had been in the midst of them for fourteen
years, and could say that a more intelligent,
loyal, and patriotic mon, were not living
on the soil of the United States. They
were hostile to fanaticism and to sentiments of
disunion, and war on the South. He felt it
to be his duty to hurl back the accusations
against the part of Wisconsin he had the
honor to represent. He was surprised to hear
gentlemen charge the present administration
with corruption and extravagance. He thought
the President was entitled to all praise. No
man should visit his mere personal slights on
his party because he might have been omitted
in the paltry distribution of federal offices.
We all agree that the Republican party orga
nization at the North is a purely sectional
party, and that the inoritablo result of the suc
cor of any sectional party in the country must
be a rupture of the Union. This is the very
state of things which Washington warned us
against., in his farewell address.
lie thought Mr. Seward's remarks nispect
ing the irreprei , sible conflict, originated in his
ambition to reach tho Presidential chair, think
ing an appeal to sectional pa-zzLiOng and preju
dices the best was' to reach it. lie never had
any doubt but that the raid of John Brown
was the legitimate effect of the teachings of
the c•ztreme section of the Republican party
North—the teachings of the Tribune, `den•
dell Phillip., and others. Lie had here
tofore thought that a dissolution of the
Union was Imposible, but now ho ventured to
.ay that if the Northern nirri prmlit in thrir
roarFe and the :qouth reAeh rivtinit the North,
the fiiii4-tdotion of the Union was not to he a

To Messrs. Shaw, 3lelalzig & Co., Blackwell—
Gents: You have written to the Emperor to
know what his intentions are, as regards Eng
land. Great fears or confidence should alone
explain this step on the one side. You are
possessed with an imaginary trouble, which
appears to have seized upon your country with
the rapidity of an epidemic, and on the other
hand you reckon upon the loyalty of him from
whom you desire a reply. It is easy for our
selves t., give it, if you had calmly' examined.
