ALLEOHENT ITIOIB —At the last regu.
War meeting of Allegheny Councils, an
ordinance was passed changing the places
of holding elections in the First Precinct
of the Fourth Ward, to the Fourth Ward
engine house, corner of L'acock and An
derson streets.
The Police Committee reported in refer.
ence to the nuisance maintained in the
Second Ward, in consequence of the drove
yards and hog pens in the vicinity of the
outer depot. The hog peas had been
found in a very filthy condition, and the
parties interested were ordered to abate
the evil forthwith. All the parties corn.
plied except W. H. Vesch, who had refus
ed, and has been indicted for nubiance—
the case to be tested in Court.
The Committee also rep•:rt the bag and
dog ordinance defective, and rocomweLd
a prohibitory ordinance, by which all
hogs within the city limits shall be confls.
cased for the use of the poor. Also, that
ail dogs be - taxed, and those not entered at
the Treasurer's office, for taxing, shall be
killed or otherwise destroyed. The City
Solicitor was instructed to prepare an ordi
nance with these recommendations.
A Nkw PLack or Amtrezinwr.—The
Athentnam Hall, Liberty street, has been
leased by the great original Cheap John,
and will be opened es a place of amuse.
ment, under the name of "Pittsburgh Gal.
eties," this evening. We understand he
has secured the services of a talented and
versatile company, inelading many who
were formerly f..rent favorites in this city.
The performance will be of a varied char.
enter, comprising negro minstrelsy by
popular and well known musicians, sing
ing, dancing, &c., concluding with a side
splitting burletta. The manager pledges
hintself that the performances shall be un
exceptionable in every perticular, and that
he will leave nothing undone to make the
"Gaieties" a model concert saloon. He
has already made engagements with sever.
al talented dewiness from New York,
whose appearance will be duly announced.
As the price of admission will be only fif
teen cents. we have no doubt the "Gaie
ties" will soon become a popular institu
tion.
WASHINGTON COLLEGE.—The Bacca
laureate sermon to the graduating class at
Washington College was delivered on Sun
day last, by the President, Rev. Dr. Scott
The same evening, Rev. A. B. Bradford,
of -Allegheny - City, preached a sermon to
the Society of Religious Inquiry. His
text was from Ist John. 6th chapter, and
21st verse: "Little children keep your,
selves from idols." The sermon was elo.
quently worded and instructive. The ex.
excises of Tuesday evening consisted of
valedictory addresses by graduating mem
bers, and responses by members of the
respective literary societies. Following
these was the address to the literary so.
deities by the Rev. D. Jacobus. The corns
menoement exercises took place on Wed.
nesday, and were very interesting. There
was a large attendance, and much interest
in the proceedings manifested.

Hero the many shaded brooks and
sparkling streams that course around the
noble Alleghenies—ever and anon dancing
with silvery whiteness rapidly over their
rocky bode, making the "grand old woods"
reverberate with the music of a miniature
Niagara—are teeming with the delicious
mountain trout.
"i.e streams thatrpti o'er golden in nes,
Yet humbly, mftly glide,
Nor seem to know the wealth that shies
Within thy gentle tide."
Here also is the pleasant little town of
Philipsburgh, with many pleasant people,
some of whom will live long in our mem.
ory.
Some week or more ago we decided to
exchange the sultry and exhausting heat
of our counting room for the pure and
healthful breezes for which the mountains
of Pennsylvania are so celebrated,
A pleasant ride of a few hours brought
us to "Tyrone Station." Being of Hiber
ui m extraction, . "Ty pone" sounded like
"old times," so we decided to take a look in
at this modern Tyrone. My companion
"Dan'!. and myself picked up our fishing
rods (a very necessary accompaniment to
the mountains,) and other traps, and
made our way to the "Oity Hotel," where
"mine host" greeted us In a way quite pee
cutter to his calling. It seemed to me that
all the locomotives on the railroad passed
Tyrone that night, from the interminable
whistling they kept up all night long; much
to our annoyance, you may be.sure.
After we had taken a hearty breakfast of
delicious eels, caught that night in the
romantic Juniata, "Sam" was promptly at
the door with that ancient substitute for
railroad cars.
Dan, who had not experienced a stage
ride for many years, at last acknowledged,
before many miles that,
"Jordaniama had road to triable,"
and this was a leetle harder yet. ,We
both conoludEd thatwalking would be an im•
provement and occasionally took a turn at
it. Taking advantage of the slow progress
of the stage, we amused ourselves as we
went picking whortleberries, which grew
in great profusion along the road side.
Early is the afternoon, Sam pulled up
opposite the "Spread Eagle Hotel" by J D.
McGirk, so here was Pittsburgh at last.—
I would like to say a word or two compli
mentary of the •.S.preed Eaglo" aryl its
excellent host; it is enough to say the
Hotel is 0. K., and Jack is one of the beet
of fellows—always in,„.for a "fish" or a
••hunt" with any of his guests.
Finding our friends o—e and IdeJ—h,
from Pittsburgh, had gone out to encamp
in the woods and hunt deer a day or two
before oar arrival with our esteemed Phil.
ipsburg friends, S—r, J—n and atco—k,
Dan and I decided to go out and hunt
them the following morning, with the as..
siste.nce of our literary friend "Jake "
After three ur four miles drive through the
woods, we came to "the chaotic" which
Jake pronounced the place There was
strong evidence of the tact, judging of the
number of bottles (empty) lying around,
labeled "Pittsburgh Kennet ale." On look.
ing around we discovered some bottles of a
darker hue and immediately paid our re•
specie to the contents. We all agreed that
it had "the divine flavor"—equal to the
"mountain dew" father Tvm presented to
the Pope. We think oar friend Kennedy
on Smithfield has some more"of the same
sort" in the original package.
"Your glee in ey be purple and mac may be blue,
Bat, when they are ad d from the same bright
b. w I,
The foot who would q'•arrei for dlfference of bi.e,
D-erry«e not the ~.;rnfoi t they shed o'er the
soul."
Our hurter had not yet wide their ap
pearance;
"1 he hounds ran as ffily thro' the woods for
1 1he nimble deer to tare,
And with their tines the hills and dales,
An echo shrill did maker
However, in a short time they all re
ported themselves, and much to our disap
pointment not a deer had they, and we had
to do without our broiled venison steak
that day.
The next day, (arrangements having
been previously made,) we started,
"When dillight was ye; sleeping under-the
I cw,
And stars In the heavens still lingering shone,"
on a grand fishing excursion to "si x mile
run," the ladies, and some of the lazy
boys to bring up the rear at a later hour.
Your correspondent, believing that the
"early bird catches the worm," (our friend
C— says it's the "early worm catches
trout,") took a position in the advance
guard. We all continued to fish till the
afternoon, with what success you should
have been there to see. Our grand dinner
was now to be prepared immediately.
With the good things the ladies brought
out, and 287 gaily spotted trout fish, fresh
from the mountain brook;the dinner was be
yond anything a "Continental" or a "Fifth
Avenue" palace could boast of. The ramose
phere in these high mountain districts
must play the deuce with a fellow's appetite.
You ought to have seen the wittlee disap
pear when the company sat down. Ye
gods I they went like snow before a July
sun. "S," of "Sucker" farm had his eye
on a "consarned" big chunk of jelly cake,
whiah he expected to wind up on, but it
must have found an opening elsewhere,much
to the regret of S. When I tell yon that
he and C. had 87 trout between them and
an equal share in all the other dishes, you
will say he made up for the loss of the
cake, and, by the way,l. saw the entire skele
ton of a year old chicken by the side of his
plate! We were all very loth to give up
the trout. We ate one after another till
we gave zp in dispair, but they still looked
so tempting on tie dish, as we sat eyeing
them, reminding us of
"A jay bird eat on a hickory limb,
He winked at me and I winked at him."
We must, indeed, have eat "a heap," for
we noticed the wagons held us all quite
easy coming out, but going in there was a
much bigger load.
The moon was out in all her glory, ere
our merry party reached the precincts of
Phillipsburg,
"'Twits but to bless these how's of shade,
That beauty and the moon were made;
• olla where their soft atUnedions glowing,
Bet the tide and gebleta &wine'
and so we ended that memorable day.
After this we made several little exalt.+
'ions, fishing and pigeon shooting, with
extraordinary success. We have secured
a few beautiful trout and will try and bring
them down with us to Pittsburgh this af
ternoon alive, and for the preient will say,
adieu.

jesterday and permitted to resume their

taining two chests otmedicinea belonging
to a physician of the, party, leaving him
one small lot "for family use." The party
were very uncommunicative and would
give the officers little satisfaction. Arrests
of traitors here and at Geveland will be
necessarily frequent, as one of the two

Ma. Kurron:— A copy of the Post, of
Friday last, strayed into Our quarters yaster_
day, having been sent Capt. Patterson by
some of his friends. It was a welcome
visitor, and has been passed aboutthe camp
until it Is nearly worn oUt t .j.. If You have
any idea what a Iniiitiry piper from home
is to the "bold eager boys," you would
honor us with a Post often.
Col. Black's immediate command is now
composed of twelve companies, which' can
not be excelled anywhere for looks, health
and good conduct., while very few exhibit
more proficiency in drilling, although we
have only been in camp one month. The
last company that come in arrived on
Saturday last, in command of Capt. R. J.
Crozier, who is both a gentleman ani a
soldier. His conduct in the Mexican war
and in the three months' army Is sufficient
guarantee that rte right man is again in
the right place. His men are fine speoi
mans of the mountain region from which
they hail, and are known as tho "Blair
County Sharpshooters."
The regiment has now everything but
uniforms, which are in the eity,and will be
distributed to-morrow or next day. The
overcoats, blankets, guns and other squip•
ments are of the very beet kind, and the
men are all pleased with them It is to tho
kindness and perseverance of Hon. Thos .
A. Scott, Assistant Secretary of War. that
we are indebted for being so promptly fur
nished with arms and equipments. He is,
like our own Colonel, a practical working
man, who puts things through while others
are rubbing up their spectaclas to look into
them.
From the orders which were read on
dress parade last evening, it appears we
will soon be right among the "seceshers,"
having been ordered to move with as little
delay as possible to Fort Corcoran, on tho
Virginia side of the Potomac.
The following eight regiments are to
form two brigades, to be ander the corn.
mend of Gen. Fitz. John Porter:
Col. Black's Pennsylvania Regiment,
Thirteenth New York do
Fourteenth do do
De Kalb Regiment.
Cameron Rifle Regiment,
Nineteenth Massachusetts Regiment,
Second Maine do
Fourteenth Michigan do
These two brigades will be under the
immediate command of the two senior
Colonels. This arrangement separates us
from Col. Rowley and the other Penusyl..
vania regiments.
Who the Colonels will be is not yet
known, but it is hoped, for the good of the
service, that. Colonel Black will be one of
them, although 1 am confident he prefers
to stay at the head of his own regi:i ent
He has been heard to say that he would
rather lead his own twelve hundred boys
to victory than command all Artie ..brigades
in the country. He loves hitmen anCthey
love him.
The news of the glorious victory of Gen.
Butler and Commodore Stringham was
received yesterday with joy by every one,
and our men are eager to take their liar,d
in the muss. The countenances of the
rebels in this neighborhood are becoming
considerably elongated, and they evidently
begin to realize that their desperate game
is about played out.
The attempt, on Saturday night, to burn
that part of the city in which the prison
house of Mrs. Greenhow and Mrs. Phillips,
proved a failure. Two stables in the im
mediate vicinity were fired by incendiaries,
and a rush made to rescue these ladies, who
have been for several months circulating
in fashionable circles and keeping the reb•
els posted, but the armed soldiers who
guard the house drove the crowd back and
away at the point of the bayonet.
The time selected by these gentlemen to
take charge of the crinoline now in con.
finement, was about 2 o'clock in the morn
ing, and no there were no engines on the
ground, they thought they had mattvra all
their own way; but"as the best laid schemes
o' mon and mice aft gang a' glee," they
were doomed to dissoptitnimeng as the
citizens and soldiers, carrying water from
the adjacent pumps and cisterns, succeeded
in extinguishing the flames. The females
and the ex-Honorable Mayor, who are
now in limbo, are highly indignant, while
the latter takes it so hard that although ho
has only had the key turned on him for a
week, his hair, which was jot black, and of
which he was very proud, has turned quite
grey.
Yesterday being Sunday, we had a very
eloquent and impressive discourse from our
newly appointed Chaplain, Rev. Dr. Read,
of Birmingham. His text was in the 8d
chapter of St. John's gospel, 18th verse.
"For God so loved the world, Mat Be gave his
only bsgoit en Son that whosoever believetli is
Him ahoulcinot perish, big have everlasting life."
The Dootor was listened to with pro
found attention by the regiment, which
was formed In a hollow square, while he
stood in the centre. He reminded the sol
diers that if they were willing, as indicated
by their presence, bore, to give up their
lives in defence of their country, they must
look to Him who suffered and died an ig
nominious death upon the cross to save

HUDSON, Mo., Sept. 6.=-Ahe 'Hager,-
baflititlge.roaster on the .:Hannibal and' St.
Joseph Ritilroad, furnished the St. Louis
,Demorfdt the following account of a ditto
helical outrage perpetrated on thit ,rosid
day before yesterday : The passenger ,
express train, bound westward this dq,
was thrown into Platte river, the timber
of the east end of the bridge over that
stream having been burned nearly through.
The entire train went down, the engine
turning over and the freight; mail and
baggage and two passenger coaches piled
ou the top. The passenger Coaches were
completely smacked, ar d I was the only
one of the train that escaped unhurt.
After getting out of the baggage car, I
commenced taking the passengers that
were not killed from the wreck. The con.
ductor,
S. C. Cutter, died in a few min
utes. Clark, the- engineer,. bad one leg
completely twisted and jammed in strings.
He also died in a few moments. Martin
TOeld, mail agent; Charles•Moore,'fiteman,
and J. Fox, brakeman, were :
Among the wounded were Mr. /ball, son
of Dr. Midell, of Ohio, and his wife. I
could not learn the names of all the pas
sengers. I went to St. Joseph and got an
engine, physic, and other necessaries for
the wounded, and reached the wreck at 8
o'clock, A. se The greatest excitement
prevails in regard to this inhuman out
rage at St. Joseph.
SECOND DESPATCH. —The following ad
ditional account of the terrible disaster on
the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad is
furnished the St. Louis Repubtieasitr—The
catastrophe occurred at Little Platte,bridge,
nine miles east of St. Joseph. The bridge
was a substantial work of one htuidredand
sixty feet span and about thirty-five' feet
above the river. The timbers of the bridge
had been burned underneath the track until
they would sustain but little more than
their own weight and the fire was then ex
tinguished, leaving the bridge a merethell.
The train having from eighty-five to one
hundred passengers, including women and
children,reached the river at eleven o'clock
at night, and the bridge looking secure, it,
passed on, but no sooner had the locceno.,
tivs measured its length upon the Lridge
than some forty or fifty yards of the struc
ture gave way, precipitating the entire
train into the abyss below. All the seats
in the passenger coaches were' torn and
shoved in front, carrying men, women and
children in a promiscuous heap near the
bank, and burying them amongst " the
crushed timbers or throwing them out of
the cars through the broken side,the Jagged
pieces of flooring impaling some. Some
were mangled by the machinery, tearing
through the timbers. Several were caught
between planks pressing together like a
vice Others were struck by parts of the
roof as it came down with mighty force.
Still others were cut with pieces of glass,
while wounds and blood and agony pre..
Veiled all over the frightful scene, and
shrieks of pain were mingled with cries of
terror. Irr this way the two last cars of
the train went down pitching the pas-
sengers into the wreck, or throwing them
into the water which, at this point, is
about a foot and a half in depth. Only
three persons. Mr. J. W. Parker, super.
intendent of the 11. S. Express, Mr. Mars,
Mail Agent, and Mr. Hager, were able to
I afford assistance to the suffering, the re,
mainder of those who were not killed out.
right being so disabled as to be helpless.
After doing all that it was possible, for
those requiring immediate attendance,
Mr. Hager, at midnight, left the wreck to
go to St. Joseph for medical and other aid.
Mr. Hager walked five miles of the wayi
. when he found a hand car upon which_ he
proceeded the remainder of.the journey:—
Two hundred yards west of the bridge he
discovered a heavy oak railroad tie strong
ly strapped across the track, and two miler}
further he found the trussle work over a
small stream on fire. It had not, however,.
as yet, been so badly burned that the
trains could not pass over it, or could not
be easily extinguished. On arriving at
St. Joseph, the alarm was soon spread
throughout the city, and although, it was
one o'clock at night, 75 men, including all
the doctors in the neighborhood, quickly
volunteered their services, and . at 3:80
o'clock.a train fully supplied with medical
stores and other accessories was at the
scene of the disaster. The wounded had
all emerged from the wreck and were
lying on the bank and upon, a wind bar in.
the river. , Seventeen dead bodies were ,
recovered, and it is believed ,that the
number embraced all who were killed
up to that time; twenty.four were so
badly wounded that it was not expected
they would survive till morning, while
many others were dangerously wounded
and would hove to be welt taken care of
to recover at all. Some who will escape
with life, will be severely maimed aril
crippled. Mr. Hager, our-informant ; did
not remain to finish the embarkatioe of
the wounded for St Joseph, but was disms
patched to Brookfield, whichis'east of the
bridge, for another train to go to the wreck.
When he left, the names of the wounded.
were being taken down, and also such of
the dead as had papers or other clues about
them by which they could'be Identified.—
Fifteen miles east of the Platte river, Mr.
'Mager found another bridge over Smith's
branch almost entirely burned, having
been fired after the train passed it, thus
preventing assistance beingmt from the
east. Lieut. Shaw, of the First Kansas
Regiment, was killed, and Mr. Loanebere
ry and Sidney Clark were wounded.-
-These are the only additional names of
those injured we have at °resent.

Racmforrn —One hundred and two fed..
eral prisoners reached here thia afternoen.
They were taken by Floyd, near Gilley'
bridge last week. One hundred belonged •
to the Ohio Seventh. About 2,000 federal
prisoners are now here.
The weather in the mountains is quite
cool and winter clothing is absolutely
needed by many of the soldiers.
An engineer just arrived says, that a
serious accident occurred on the Railroad
near Abington today. The Atkin Guards,
of the 14th Louisiana, had one killed and
18 wounded.
