MONDAY MORNING, MAY 25 CITY AD MINIEBORROOD INTELLIGEN Public Bathing. We have once before called attention to ' the feet that a parcel of young men and boys are daily in the habit of bathing in the Allegheny river within the city limits at all hours of the day, thereby expos ing themselves in an indecent manner.= No notice appears to have been taken of our warning, and on Saturday we noticed them bathing in both rivers, and in the canal in Allegheny, where they were per fectly exposed to passers by. If these blackguards cannot be taught decency in any other manner, and if the police re• fuse, or neglect to interfere, then severe measures should be resorted to by the itizars who are annoyed by them. Scarcity of Small nonses. Never was there a greater demand for small houses than now exists in our city. On Satuz day we were from the top of Coal Hitt to Manchester, and not a solitary small house to rent. There are some few large houses which are tenantless either from the fact that the rents are so enor mously high that but few can pay it, or the owners tetase to allow them to be occu pied as hoarding houses or by more than one family. We do not believe that capi talists could invest their money to better advantage than to erect small tenements that would rent from $6,00 to $12,00 a month. A Monster Gun. A few days since one of the 15inch guns cast at the Fort Pit; Works, Pittsburgh, passed over the Lake Shore road East ward. The monster-12 feet 9 inches thick at the butt—astonished all who saw it.—Brie City Dispatch. We should think so. A gun twelve feet nine inches thick at the butt would astonish almost any person. Couldn't you come down a peg or two, neighbor? Keenan's Case, On Thursday last the Supreme Court at H arrisbnrg gave its decision in the case of Keenan vs. the Commonwealth, affirm ing the judgment of the lower Court -- Keenan has been sentenced to death, and will now certainly be hung, unless the Ex ecutive pardon him. Keenan, it will be remembered, is the person who got into a difficulty with a conductor on the Cit;zens Passenger. railway by the name of Obey, during which he if fitcted a fatal stab. He was intoxicated at the time. New Dineune--Spotted Fever. Dr. Gerhard, et Philadelphia, at the meeting of the college of Physicians held in that city tn• March last. gave an interesting account of the new disease called "spotted fever," which has proved so fatal in the eastern portion of the State. Ihe fever was so peculiar in its symptoms, and so perfectly unknown to professional men, that at first, some of them were diepc.sed to confound it with other diseases, as typhoid, scarlet fever, influenza, &c. it is, however, in this country at least. clearly a new disease, with no alterna'ions of the body, and is, therefore, strictly dependent upon a dis eased condition of the blood. The disease is said to be similar to the spotted fever which prevailed in New England between the years 1808 and 1818. The name "elicited fever" attaches to it for the present in consequence of the sim ilarity. It attacks all persons of all ages of life, but is chiefly prevalent among the young, from fifteen to twenty five yeara of age. The patients are taken down with a chill, which is generally proceeded by uncomfortable feelings for a few hours - - The chill is followed by an intense head ache, pain in the back of the neck, pass ing down the spine, and fever. In about twenty-font' hours an eruption, in reddish spots, appears beneath the akin, causing, however, no elevation. It consists of lit tle points of blood, varying in size from a pin's head to a quarter of an inch and sometimes larger. If the patient is suffer ing from a severe attack, he generally be comes delirious, and often becomes in• sensible. When death takes place, it oc curs in from twelve hours to four days. It the disease lasts for a few days, the pa tient recovers The treatment which has thus far been successful is this: Avoid blood letting; put the patient on stimulents, such as brandy, wine or whisky : also quinine freely, and apply to the back of the neck and down the limbs mustard poultices. -Keep up external warmth, promote Ares• piration, and make cooling applications to the head. Upon examination after death, it is quite evident, from the pers ence of the spots in the interior of the body being similar to those on the exte rior on account of the dissolving condi tion of the blood, that it is strictly a blood disease, and ought to be treated accord• ingly. There is no reason whatever to suppose that it springs from infected raga, as has been charged, and the best evi dence of this is its simultaneous.appear• mice in various parts of the country. National Cards. The American Pitblishing Company have introduee,d a new playing card, ne• tional in its character. The four suits are stars, shields, flags and eagles—Colonels - representing Kings, the Goddess of Liber ty, Queen, and the Major, Jack. Hydrophobia. Nearly every exchange paper brings us intelligence of persons being bitten by mad dogs. Unless something is done in this city to do away with the worthless curs that infest our streets, we shall soon have to record the intelligence that some one has suffered from the same cause. Progressing. The building of the piers at the termi nation of the Erie and Pittsburgh rail road, in the west part of Erie bay, is going ahead rapidly, and the docks will be con structed before the road is completed to the harbor. Income Tax. • The income tax is levied on the net if! , - come only. The gains or profit of busi ness, intended by the law, are only snob as remain after deducting all the costs and charges of carrying on that business.— After the residue, the tax payer has a cred it of $6OO, and allowance for taxes, State, county and municipal. Arrival of Remains. The remains of Corporal Charles H. Caugher, Company F., 102 d Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, arrived from the East on the coon train, yesterday. He was wounded in the breast at the battle of Fredericksburg, on the 4th inst., and died et Fahnonth on the 6th. His funeral takes place to-day. Rivalry. Quite a lively rivalry has sprung rip be tween Titusville and Oil City. The peo ple of Titusville call the latter a "suburb," and the Oil Citizens retort by saying that Titusville is "decaying." Dan Rice Not Dead. The .great clown is not dead, but the Girard Union say, there is some talk of running him for Governor. Dan declines the honor on the ground that he cannot afford to give up a salary of $25,000 a year for one of $BOOO. Fire Alarm. The alarm of 443 on Saturday evening was take. The alarm of fire last night originated in the burning of an old shed on Du quesne Way, between Hay and Marbury street. lhe flames communicated with a four story brick, occupied by Mr. James Lemon as a cabinet manufactory, turning shop and coffin rooms, which was soon destroyed. The fire then spread to Mc- Cune & Douglas' lumber yard, and a con siderable quantity of lumber was destroyed before they could be subdued. This is the third recent attempt made to barn that lumber yard, for that the fire was the work of an incendiary cannot be doubted. It was impossible last night to ascertain amount of loss An Ex-Local Robbed. O n Wednesda7 night last the dwelling of Mr. H. H. Smith, formerly of this paper, was entered by some unconscionable scoundrels, who entered at the back door by breaking cff two bolts. They first lit a parlor lamp, which they left burning, and opened the secretary, from which they took some napkins, itc. They selected some shells and cabinet ornaments, and then went up stairs, and failing to get into the bed rooms, which were locked, they tided a wardrobe standing in the hall, taking therefrom two new silk .dresses, a cape, a black silk cloak, together with a box of shirts, a bran new suit of clothes, and other wearing apparel. They then went to the cellar, and bringing up two cans of peaches, a loaf of bread and some butter, sat down to enjoy themselves in the kitch• en. After eating the bread and peaches they became alarmed and decamped, leaving some of the articles they. had so carefully gathered up behind them. The robbery of a local editor should he severely punished, but a local editor guilty of hav ing new clothes and napkins should be robbed. Found Drowned. On Wednesday last gr. Calvin Dodge, a painter, disappeared from his residence, and up to 12 o'clock yesterday nothing had been heard of him. At that hour his body was found in the Monongahela river within about twenty feet of the steamer Gallatin. at the Brownsville packet landing. He had been sick for some time previous but at the time be lc ft he appeared to be in hie usual state of mind. How he was drown. ed is totally unknown, and is only a matter of conjecture. A notice of his funeral will be found in another column. Outrage by a Beggar Girl. One day last week, a beggar girl about thirteen years of age, residing in Sharps• burg came down to the city, and enr,ng her peregrinations came across a little son of Mr. Keenan's, aged about four or five years, which she succeeded in entic ing jute one of the passenger cars. Shp took the child out to Hatfield, when she stripped it of nearly all its garments and left it, and went on to her parent's home in Sharpshurg. Mr. Keenan getting on the track of the child started in company with chief Hague, and after recovering the child, they proceeded to the house occupied by the parents of the girl There they veto informed that the girl in corn any with two others had bneri dr:von from the house the ilsy before for stet-l ing. The clothes of Mr. Keenan's child, however, were found in the house. Some thing should: be done to prevent prof s sional beggars from running the streets. - - Another Railroad Accident. On Saturday afternoon as the Cleve land train was passing Diamont, his miles below this city, one of the cars, filled with passengers, run off the track and rolled over the bank. The passengers all escaped with no further injuries than a few bruises, but a brakesman by the name of Ewing who resided in Wellsville was instantly killed, the whole of the upper part of his head having been taken off. There is a curve in the road there, and it is supposed that a rail having become warped was the cause of the accident. Eire. The first alarm of fire on Saturday even ing was occasioned by the burning of Mc Cully's glass house in thn Ninth Ward. Meeting.

Nest Postage Stamp. A two cent stamp has been prepared for local or drop letters, having a portrait of Gen. Jackson for the design. The new rate of postage for such letters rendered a new stamp necessary. I udiered for 11 order.

Various circumatanzes have transpired to delay the departure of Dr. Randall the successful operator upon cqrns and bunions, the principal of which is, the in creasing demand for hes services his pe culiar system of treatment of these annoy ances has occasioned, but be must assure those who intend to honor him with a call that other engagements will preclude the possibility of hie remaining in Pittsburgh any longer than during the coming week.

Guns from the vessels of war in port had been sent ashore, and ate to go to Puebla. Two guns have ar rived within two days journey and others were on the road. The impossibility of entering Puebla consisted in the barricades eighteen feet thick of earth and stones, and in fact the Mexicans had filled the houses on the first lire of the parapets with earth. The Mexicans again occupy the port of Ssu Xavier, which they are repairing. Light skirmishes occurred daily with parties who come out to attack from the city. `4.—At 11 o'cicdt On the 21th a large convoy of meal was captured by the French, enronte for Puebla.

The latest published M reb y e 124 intelligence from Vicksburg is in effect that General Grant had crossed the Big Black above the burnt bridge, and had circumvented Vicksburg, taking thirty rebel guns. The papers speak mournfully of their prospects in the South-west, and hope that affairs there may prove less disastrous than reported. The Lieut. Col. Commanding the 15th Va.. cavalry was brought into camp to• day by a detachment of our cavalry. He was captured East of the Rappahannock, whither he had come, as he says, to be present at the funeral of his child.
