Argument Upon a Motion eor a New
Trial. —On Saturday morning the motion for
a new trial intbecaseof Alexander J. McCon
nell, convicted of attempting to burn tne nuu
chine shops of the Pittsburgh and Cleveland
Railroad, in Manchester, was ably argued by
Hon P. C Shannon for tho defendant, and
John H. Hampton, E-q., for the Common
wealth. The ground upon which Mr. Shan
non argued hia motion, which he did very
elaborately, was that the offense with which
McConnell stood charged was, both under the
old statutes and the new penal code, given in
to tbe exclusive jurisdiction of tho Court ol
Oyer and Terminer. But it had been tried in
the Quarter Sessions, where McConnell had on
ly four challenges, while in the other Court he
would have been entitled to twenty challenges.
it a new trial was granted be wass&usfi* dthat
such circumstances could be proven as would
clearly demonstrate the innocence of the &c*
cused. Tbe gentleman quoted authorities in
support of his position, and referred to some
other matters incidental to the case, such as
tbe course ot the Commonwealth in trying the
last, in point of time, of two indictments
Hgainst the defendant, first. In reply Mr.
Hampton held that tbe indictment was right.
The proper way to look at the question was to
o-o back to the old law, which he cited, fle
argued to show that at common law an at
tnmpt to burn was not arson. In section 137
of the new penal code felonious arson is set
forth as a specific offence, punishable as a fel
ony, while in section 138, attempting to burn
was declared to bn a misdemeanor. Toe
pamphlet laws of 1849 make the same dis tine
lion, corresponding with the act of 1806, by
which attempts to burn and some actual burn
ings are set down as misdemeanors. In his
practice he had never knuwn a case of misde
meanor tried in the Oyer and Terminer. He
•bad no desire to deprive defendant of any of
* hii privileges, and would not urge sentence if
be h&dany doubts as to the legality of the in*
dictment, tbe previous trial or the guilt of the
prisoner. Judg? Mellon, who heard the case
tried, took the papers and will give a decision
this week.
The following items we dip from the Venan*
go .Spectator of last week:
Tne Keystone (Georgetown) Company, on
A. Cochran’s land, two miles down- tho river,
have a first rate well. They are down 466
feet —aome twenty feet below the vein—and on
Friday last were pumpiDg at the rate of fifty
barrels in twentyafour hours. Good judges
estimate this as a permanent thirty to forty
barrel well. The‘amount of oil delivered at
the Sunbury and Erie Railroad station in Erie,
last week, was 1,960 barrels. The total amount
during February was 9,370 barrels.
The Franklin Citizen says:
“We understand that the well at the foot of
Foster’s Island, on the Allegheny river, about
seven miles below this place, had a good vein
of oil struck in it at four hundred and ninety
feet,"and that the workmen had dipped off a
barrel with the Band pump.
Mr. M’Cullough, vpbo has a well on tho
ißtepuen Smith farm* some two miles below
the Hoover well, has struck a good vein, and
.we understand is getting ready for pumping.
A well oa Lhg Cochran, some two miles down
•.the river from town, was tubed last week, and
twaa, when we last heard from it, doing well,
yielding twenty barrels per day.
The Westmoreland Oil Company have struck
» third vein of oil in their well at a depth of
76 feet, and purpose to commence pumping
f\ben they reach 140 feet.
Another company, called the “ilonongabe
la,” Las been organized at M’Eeesport, to ex
pertinent for oil in that keality.
The Same Old Gams. —lt is astonishing to
us U*at any man,in this enlightened age, after
the frequent warnings given through the public
pri&u, can permit himself to be diddled out
of money by the stale dodges of sharp confi
dence men, jet there are some who have not
yet learned wisdom, unless by sad experience.
A stranger from the East, bred in Philadel
phia and Ktw York, where he should have
learned to be on bis guard, arrived here a few
days since and took passage for St. Louis on
the steamer J. B. Ford. On Saturday morn
ing a well dressed gentleman, apparently a
fellow-passenger, engaged him in conversation
upon the boat, and, after a time, proposed a
walk, which was readily agreed to. On Fifth
street, a man approached the two and, present*
log a bill to the passenger (confidence man
Mo. 1 ) asked him if he could pay it. Mo. 1
pulled out a wallet, filled with $lOO (counter
feit) bills, and asked Mo. 2if walk
down to tho boat, as he had not the amount
(f f>o) in change. No. 2 did not like to go and
Mo. 1 asked the stranger to lend him $6O until
they returned to the boat, when he would re
pay him in gold. The stranger assented and
handed over the $5O to No. 2, who asked No. 1
to step into a house in the alley leading off
Fifth street to Ryan’s buildings,until he signed
the receipt. The stranger waited on the street
for a whil&, when he began to realize that he
had been swindled, but search for the swind
lers proved useless, as they were by that time
out of reach. "We’ll wsger a new hat that the
strange gentleman will not be victimized in
like manner again.

A Bathsr Mysterious Case. —A man
named Frank Elak, saddler, at No 2iil lib
erty street, is to have a hear n 5 before the
Mayor at two o’clock this afternoon on a
charge of assault and battery, preferred by his
brother-in-law, Mathias Airier, a cap maker,
living in Allegheny. The informant alleges that
Elak, who is married to his sister, bsd been
accustomed to abusing her. On Sunday week
his Bister came to his house and showing
bruises on her arms, which she said bad been
made by Elak, declared she would live with
him no longer. Alner advised her to return
home, which Bhe did. On Tuesday Alner
called at Elak'sand was informed that she had
goue to market in the morning, but had not re
turned. Search for three days proving fruit*
less, information was made against Elak for
assault and battery and bo wa9 arrested. lie
repeated the story about bis wife having gone
to market, in her usual clothing and with very
little money. He and his son, (a young man of
twenty-one, who was very severe on Alner)
had searched for her ever since, £ut failed to
learn anything of her. He stated that he had
been married twenty-three years, and had
lived hero twelve years; also that his brother
in-law, Alner, had tried to convince him that
his wife was not a proper woman, and also told
Der that be, (Klak.j was guilty of improper
conduct. To Alner’s inteference Eiak attrib
utes all these difficulties, and admitted that be
had 6truck her about two week* since, and also
quarreled with bnr on the Sunday she went to
her brother’s, lie believed she was still in the
city. Tbe son who manages the father's finan*
cial aOairs, thought his mother would have had
only a few dollars, which would prevent her
carrying out an expressed intention of visiting
a sister in St. Louis. Uoder the circumstan-.
ces, the Mayor deemed it advisable to hold
Klak to bail for further hearing on tho charge
of assault and battery, which was done. Tbe
disappearance of Mrs. E is most singular, all
tbe places she frequents having been visited,
but no one having seen her, which induced a
suspicion of foul play somewhere. Tae affair
is still full of mystery,and we hope tbe exami
nation to-day may dear H up.
Lake Superior Mining News— Diring
tbe year lSdu, tbe Hockiand Mine produced
five hundred and fifty tons and one buudred
and fifty-three pounds of copper. Tbe ship
ment made during the season of navigation
.was five hundred and sixty six tons and nine
hundred pounds nett mineral. The average
number of miners employed was one hundred
and twenty four. The total drifting w*s one
thousand six hundred and eighty five feet, and
total sinking of shaft* three hundrel and
ninety-one foot. Tne total amount of sloping
was one thousand six hundred and sixty-one
fathoms, which yielded six hundred and sixty
two pounds of copper per fathom. Following
U the product of some of the principal mines
for tbe month of January: Minnesota, ODe
huodred and sixty tuns one thousand one hunt
dred and ninety four pounds; National,
seventy-four tons; Rockland, thirty tons one
thousand one hundred and thirteen pounds ;
Superior, four tons lour hundred and thirty
two pounds. Many of the smaller mines do
not weigh off regularly during the winter
months, but, including the stamp work raised,
it is perfectly safe to estimate the total pro
ducts of the Ontonagon mines of the district,
for January, at three hundred tons.
Litkrary Union.— Thelifth meeting of the
Literary Union was held in tbe Supreme Court
Room, on last Friday evening. There was a
very l&rge number of delegates present, and
tbe meeting clearly demonstrated tbe fact that
the Union of Literary Societies is one of the
institutions of tho county. The usual prelim
inaries were gone through with, after which a
constitution was partially adopted. A vote of
thanks was tendered to Mr J. C. Montgomery,
Mayor’s Clerk of Philadelphia, lor favors ren
dered. A committee, consisting of Messrs. J.
G. MoCandless, \V. J. Phillips, C. C. Scaite,
J. C. Lambert, Ernest W. Morrow, id. C. Mc-
Dowell, and J. M. Hazalett, was appointed to
report in relation to the merits of the different
constitutions submitted to the Union, after
which the meeting a-ij turned to meet on the
evening of the 221 day of March, lbtil.

why aaid decree should not be rescinded The
petitioners slates that they had previously pre.
seated a remonstrance against the vaittiun,
which has not yet been withdrawn, (though
counsel were uDdor that impression) and they
were surprised when they discovered the con
firmation of the decree, as it would prove a
great injury to them. The Court granted the
rule.
HuiU Water— several days during
the latter part of last week, the streams in this
neighborhood were in excellent condition for
rafting, and a number of ra!U, principally
board*, started Irorn this place on Friday and
Saturday; but the rain uii Sunday evening
swelled the waters over the banks and brought
lumbering operations to a stand. To-day,
(Monday,) the waters are from four to five feet

Pleasant Amusement —John Beatty had
been in jail sometime previous to Frday morn
ing, when he was released As the event was
one to be rejoiced over, ho indulged in liberal
potations during the day, and in the evening,
his feelings having reached a high pitch, he
proceeded to vent them by breaking up the
furniture and dishes and turning the family
out of the house. He was arrested and taken
before the Mayor, who imposed a lino of
and cotta upon him lor his playfulness, which
John was unable to pay and he was obliged,
therefore, to go back to his old quarters.
Seward Literary Somet*.—Wo have
seen a programme for the exhibition of this
Society, to be given at Concert Hall, on Thurs

sufferers. The entertainment will be chiefly
dramatic, consisting of selections from “Romeo

“Ten days'in the Tower.” These will be in
terspersed with appropriate literary exercises,
such as recitations, decNraationg, etc. The

St Louis, March U) —After some impor
tant proceedings in fhe Convention yester
day, Judge Gamble, of the Com
mittee on Federal Relations, presented and
read the report of that Committee. The
report is long and written. It
makes a faithful exposition of all the cir
cumstances surrounding the position, and
affecting the interests of Missouri, and re
counts the evils of which the South may
rightfully complain; admonishes the North
that the hostile and fanatical feelings to
wards Southern institutions manifested by
large numbers of the people of that section,
are productive only of evil, and expresses
the hope that a better knowledge of the
subject will remove their prejudices. It
does not a&sume a threatening attitude to
ward either extreme section of the country',
but points to the errors of both, and con
cludes with the following resolutions, whicn
are a reduction of the main features of the
report :
JitsolvryU That at present there is no ade
quate course to impel Missouri to dissolve
her connection with the Federal Coion,
on the contrary she will labor fur such
adjustment of the existing troubles as
secure peace and’the lights of equality
id the StAtes.
Resolved, That the people of this State are
devotedly attached to the institutions of
our country, and earnestly deßire that by
a fair and amicable adjustment, the present
causes of disagreement may be removed,
the U uion perpetuated, and peace and har
mony restored between the North and the
South.
Resolv&i, That the people of this State
deem the amendments to the Constitution of
the United Btates proposed by Mr. Critten
den, with the extension of the to the
territory hereafter to be acquired, a basis of
adjustment which will successfully remove
the causes of difference forever from the
arena of national politics.
Unsolved, That the people of Missouri be
lieve the peace of the country will be pro
moted by a convention to propose amend
ments to the Constitution of the United
States ; and this Convention urges the Legis
lature of this State to take steps for the call
ing of such convention.
Resolved, That, in the opinion of this Con
vention, the employment of military force
by the Federal Government, coercive of the
seceding States, or the employment of mil
itary force by the seceding States to assail
the Government of the United States, will
inevitably plunge ths country in civil war,
and thereby extinguish all hopes of an ami
cable settlement of the issues now pending.
We therefore earnestly entreat the Federal
Government, as well as the seceding States,
to stay the arm of ipilitary power, and on
no pretence whatever to bring upon the
nation the horrors of civil war.
Resolved, That when this Convention ad

convene the Convention, at such time and
place, prior to the third Monday in Decem
ber. as the public exigencies require.
The report was ordered to be printed, and
made the special order for Monday.
Mr. Redd, whilst heartily approving of
the temper and spirit of the report, dis
sented from the pia.ii of adjustment laid
down, and asked leave to present a minori
ty rej>ort on Monday, which was granted,
and the report was ordered to be printed.

Fort Kearney, Marco v.—The Tony Kt
preas passed at bringing thy following
summary of news from the Pacific Coast:
San Francuco, Feb. -■> —There Is but-lit*
tie general newt. The ceremonies at the Union
celebration yesterday, absorbed all the, atten
tion. The day was as unanimously observed
as the 4’.h of July celebrations in San Francis
co. It is estimated that mure than twenty
thousand people attended the Union meetiog
at the corner of Market and Montgomery
streets. Speeches were made by K. Stanly,
Eugene Casserday, Col. Crockett, and others,
were unanimously adopted declar
ing the unalterable attachment ot California to
the Union; that there exists no power under
the constitution for a StaU to accede; that Cal
ifornia will cheerfujy acquiesce in any honor
able plan for the adjustment of the existing
d.fficulties, so as to secure the rights of all the
Slates; that it one or more States should effect
a linal separation from the Union, California
should and wili nevertheless cling to the Umon
with the States; that California entirely repu
diates the projector a Pacific K-public as vis
ionary, mischievous and unpraciicablc; that tho
true attitude of tho people of Oalilornia at this
time of trouble is th«t of fraternal kindness to
wards the people of all the States, and her hon
or and interest alike dotuand of her t<, do all
in her power to bring about harmony and re
union among the people of the whole country.
It is generally conceded that this impromptu
Union demonstration was the largest mass
meeting over b*ld in Sin Francisco, while the
unanimous and enthusiastic endorsement of
the resolutions surprised their friends.
James A McDongal was nominated a can
didate for United States Senator, by a caucus
composed of 2H Douglas Democrats, on the
ovoning of the 20. b. This Is cue less than ama
Jorlty of the Douglas party in the Legislature.
The remaining portion of that parly have
coalesced with the Brooklnridgera, and the
prospect is favorable to the nomination of
Denver.
Pony express from the Atlantic States
to tho 9tb inst. arrived. Tho news is consider
ed favorable to an amicable settlement of the

The Legislature adjourned from the 21st to

Washington City, March'd.—The Charles
ton Courier, of Thursday, says that the works
in the harbor have made formidable progress
within the last ten days, under the direction
of Gen. Beauregard, in whose charge an
attack on Fort Sumpter has been placed.
Three soldiers, whose terms of enlistment
hod expired, left Fort Sumpter on Wednes
day. . j
Ex-Secretary Floyd has published a state
ment indicatory of tbe acceptances in favor
of Russell, Majors & Co. and of their legal
ity. Instead of there being six millions o(
these acceptances, he shows that there are
only about $600,000 worth. He declares
that the contractors have secured these by
assignments of property ample Tor their pro
tection, and that, if the government will
permit tho earnings of the trains for 1861 to
be applied to the acceptances, they will be
liquidated in that way without recourse to
the assignments. It would seem also that the
Government owes the contractors upwards
of half a million dollars, which is equivalent
to the cash value of the Indian trust bonds,
of the abstraction of which Mr. Floyd repu
diates all previous knowledge. He de
nounces the oonductand proceedings of the
Select Committee with great severity, and
says their'sole object was political persecu
tion and defamation.
The subject of the collection of the reve
nue and the reinforcement of For t Sumpter
has not yet engaged the attention of the
Cabinet.
Great efforts are being made to effect a
peaceful solution of the qeeation of the iorts
and revenue.

“No, sir; but since tbeir own »on, Mr. Ed
ward died, you see, they adopted Mr. Pierre
Sl George.”
“Adopted ?”
“Yes, sir; and ho is to have all the prop
erty.”
“And he is up at the house now. hut I don’t
like him, and ho is a brute, I think; but Mr.
and Mrs. Galtley are quite as fond of him os
they were of their own son. 1 fancy, th >ugn I
never saw him. My aunt and uncle are up at
the bouse, hanging up the holly, you see, sir,
and that’s why I am here all alone.”
“Good Heaven
“Sir r”
“Ah! Oh! Well! well! It seems like a
dream; but 1 suppose that 1 am awake ?”
“I thank you for your kind information—
very much 1 thank you. I will go up to the
house now.”
“. v 'hali 1 take your name, sir, to Mr. Cat-*
tley?”
“Oh, no, no! that is needless ! They know
me, or they used to know me.”
While this colloquy was going on between
the young stranger and the girl, the sun, that
had K oked so pleasant, had passed away, and
a bowling wind began to sweep over the scene.
Huge clouds came from the southwest, and
in about five minutes more it was nearly dark.
Tbe stranger bowed courteously to the young
girl at tho lodge, and with the horse’s bridle
over his arm he slowly passed up the long ave
nue of chestnut trees that led to Mayfield
House.
And this was Edward Galtley, returned from
tbe Mauritius within the three years he had
specified, and this was the 6trange reception he
had got, and the strange news that swatted him
What of 'ruth there was in the story told
by Mr. .St George, and how much falsehood
was built upon that basis, wo shall soor. see
With the dim shadows of the evening gath
ering more ar.d more thickly about him as he
went, young Edward Oattley slowly approached
his father’s bouse; but about half way up the
loDg chestnut avenue he paused a moment, and
then turned aside into a narrower path which
led to the stables.
“ I will put up my horse,” he said, in a tone
of some bitterness; “I will put up my horse,
on the chance of being made welcome, at all
events, for the night.”
Tbe young mao thought it some what strange
to find the stables so completely deserted as
they were; but tbe fact was that all the ser
vants were up at the house, assisting at tho
Christmas decorations: so Edward put up tho
horse himself, and then took his route again
to the old house.
How familiar to him was every footstep of
bis route, and what a host of recollections came
across him as he trod the well known path to
tbe hail door. He felt as if he bad left tbe
house a boy to come back to it a man, and as
if half a lifetime bad passed over his head, in
stead of a short three years. And what was
he to think of the news that he had heard?
A stranger held his place in the affections of
his parents. He was believed to be dead, and
with that belief ho appeared, too, to be forgot
ten.
It was in the midst of these anything but
pleasing reflections that Edward Cattley reach-’
ed the hall of tbe house, and from there he
heard voices in the dining-room; and one
voice in particular, which said, “Don’t you be
afraid, mother, I shall not fall. Now Samuel,
hand me up the flag.”
“I am mad !” thought Edward Cattley, “I
am mad ! This is Borne strange dream !”
“Be careful, Pierre—be careful!” he then
heard his father say, “Be very steady now!”
Edward pressed bia hands on his heart for a
moment or two, to still its wild beating, and
then he opened the door at the end of the di
ning-room, and walked in about two steps, and
said, “Father and mother, will you tell me if
you know mo V*
There was but eleven words, and some of
them short ones, but surely never had the same
number produced equal effects.
Mrs Cattley, who was seated on a low stool,
sewing artiiieial roses to laurel leaves, uttered
a mild shriek:, and fell senseless.
Mr. Cattley, with a ruch, and a cry that
came direct from the heart, bounded forward,
and clasped his arms around his son, and then
burst into tears.
The impetus with which ho jumped from the
top of the a'.eps sent them back into the room,
where they knocked down the old butler and
two footmen among a heap of holly and laurel.
The female servants present screamed. The
butler called out “Murder.” And such a scefie
of confusion onsued as that old dining hill had
never witnessed,
“Father, father!” said .Edward, “what does
all this mean 1"
“My boy: my boy! my own dear boy!'*
“Thank God!” added Edward, as he held
his father to bis heart, “thank God I hear you
say so."
“Ever—ever my own boy. Ob, Edward,
Edward, where havo you been, and what mir
acle has preserved you to us?”
“Well, dear father, lot me speak to my
mother, and I will tell you all. Mother,
mother, let the voice of your son restore you
to consciousness. 1 am here. X have come
back to you, to leave you no more.”
The voice pf her son did restore her; and it
is needless to say with what joy that fond
mother welcomed back her lost treasure. It
was a full hour before any of them could talk
cohoreatly , and then Edward, in reply to a
legion of questions, said, “I was persuaded to
gamble for one hour once ; and as I won, and
would go away, a young scoundrel of the name
<>f Petrus followed me and pushed me all una»
wares over a precipice n
“Ab, my dear,” said the mothor, “we know
ail that.” 5
“You do, mother?”
“Yea, and about tho pool—the fathomless
pool into which it was thought you sunk.’*
“Oh, dear no, I did not sink into it, and no
body thought so. £ slid down twenty yards
along the lace of the precipice, and caught at
some weeds in the face of the rock, and by
rare good fortune climb<d uo again. The ras
cal Petrus left the island that same night, no
doubt supposing ho had murdered me, but be
yond a few scratches I was none the worse.”
“My son--rny boy !”
“God bless you, Edward !”
“But who was or who is that person,” said
Edward, “who jumped through the window as
I came in?”
“Bless us!” exclaimed both Mr. and Mrs.
Cattley, at once ; “we forgot Pierre.”
“Wbo is Pierre?”
“Your friend, my dear, who thought you
were drowned in the pool—your friend, Pierre
St. George. Ob, run out, and see if he is hurt.”
“Stop!” said Edward. “Is he slight and
thin? I only saw him on the top of the steps
for halt & second. ”
“He is—he is!”
“Has he a scar on his loft brow?”
“Ob, yes, yes !”
“Ah, then that is Petros, who would make
me play, and then push mo over the precipice.
Dear father and mother, 1 see it all now!
The villain, thinking me dead, came to you,
and by his specious cunning, got you to adopt
him. He is stained by a hundred crimes. You
have indeed taken a viper to your bosoms.”
The Oattleys wore aghast with surprise and
fright at the knowledge that they had been
actually for so long cherishing the man who
had attempted the life of their own son. An
eager search was made ever the entire neigh*
borhood, but no trace of the fugetive could be
found; and in tho joy of the recovety of
real son, the Cattleys would Boon have coased
to think of their adopted one.
But Petrus alias Pi*rre Su George had not
done yet with the Cattleys.
That he entertained the most deadly hatred
against EdwardCattley there coaid be no doubt;
and that he would gladly give bia own life, if
it would enable that hatred to be the destruc
tion of Edward, was evident.
