SATURDAY MORNING, AUG UST -1 CITY AND NENIIBOIIIIOOIi ifiTIIIIIGIiNCE Dastardly Outrage. A man called at the Mayor's office yes terday and made the following statement. He Bays that day before yesterday, a man about forty-five years at age, went to a house in the Fifth Ward, and represented that he resided in Wilkinsburg, and wished to employ a girl to do house-work. The persons to whom he applied informed him that their daughter—a verb prepossessing girl. about sixteen years of age—would like to get a situation, and a bargain was soon coi.elrided at $1 50 a week. The girl was soon ready, end leki with the man, taking the accommodation train for Wilkinsburg Leaving the train there, they proceeded down the track for a short distance, when they turned into a ravine. Here the man made known his hellish de signs, and by force succeeded in violating the person of the girl. She returned to the city and made known the facts as here stated, - and the Mayor dispatched two of his police after the fellow. A man an swering his description was seen the same evening at Turtle Creek, where he called at a house after supper hours, and asked for supper. If caught, he will be severely dealt with. We have learned since the above was written that the came of the fiend who committed the above 0 itrage, is Smith, and that he represeiaed himself as a farm er living about a mile from Wilkinsburg. He had been to the house three times to see about her, and her parents concluded - that he was what he represented himself to be, and consented to her going. She ie very badly injured, and last night-was Buffering intensely. Her relations are people of respectability and standing in the community. It is said that Smith took the fast train for the East on Thursday night. The Mayor has telegraphed his description along the road, and it he re mains in the cars he will certainly be at-- reiged. A Good fioak. Yesterday mono: g Coronet' McClung called in a hurry tit the Mayor's office,and informed his Honor that the body of a murdered soldier had been found at dam No. 1, and that he wa , on his way up there to hold an inquest., and asked that some of the Police might be sent up in order that they might hear the testimo 'y, and take each steps as they might deem necessary to arrest the murderer. The Coroner himself, procured hsi jury, swore them in, and proceeded to the place where the body was supposed to lie The Mayor sent up officers Gribben and Scott, who went up on foot, and chief Hague who went to the expense of hiring a horse.— The "order Of procession' then, as the newspapers have it, was as follows: Hague, mounted on a Bricephillus, mar shalling the way : next in order officers Gribbeu and 5..0.t. upon whose shoulders rested the resposibility of arresting and bringing to condign punishment the per petrator of the " fiendish murder;" next the Coroner leading to the scene of death his ponderous six, who were to sit upon the body, and by_their united weight ascer tain, how, when, and under what circum stan:,es,.the deceased now lying before us came to his death." As they approached the scene we eau imagine how their pulses quickened. Thil".^o, Outside of a log, near the water's edge lay "he deceased, and it was known immediately ; l irg it was a son of Uncle Sam eel's by the bri - h - 4, new form in which it was dressed. : I li! s is"h This wart ,I is bat a fleeting show. For man's de'usion given." Upon arriving at the place it was found that the bright, new uniform lacked one essential thing in holding nu inquest : They did nit contain a body. Tne fortunate, or unfortunate owner of them had probably been a substitute, who having obtained his three hundred dollars and been swornin,had repaired to this place where having doffed the soldiers, and donned the citizens apparel he had ske daddled for parts unknown. The melan• choly cortege turned about "right face," and marched back to the city, wiser if not sadder men. Reader "the mysterious murder, or the fate of a subsitute, ' ie be tore you, and from this time forth is a mattet of record The Night Pollee. After the adjournment of council last night we proceeded to the Mayor's office, and found the members of the night police assembled. At nine o'clock at the re quest of the Mayar the roll was called, and the watchmen went on as usual. To night the probability is that the city will be without the usual watch. They have given councils two notifications of their wishes, and as they have been disregard ed, they have taken matters into their own hands.- The whole thing now lies be t ween the citizens and the councils. It appears to us that had the S. C. concur• red with thi'action of C. C. last night,and alloyed the police organization to have gone on for the present, they could at a t uture meetirg have reconsidered the whole matter, and arranged the police to suit themselves. Even now they might calla meeting for this afternoon and take action in the promises, by concurring with the Common Council. We throw oat this hint that they may act upon it or not as they see lit, for the police positively re• fuse to go On to-night unless something is done in relation to their salary. Wool Market. The Washington Weekly Review says Within the last few days we heard of sev eral clips of wool being sold in this coun ty—generally at 75 cents per lb. This is a fair price, but not as good as the farmer should realize. The heavy draw upon our people for the payment of fines under' the Conscription act, has forced some to throw their wool into the market at lower prices than they otherwise would. The • ice is now broken," and we presume the clip of this county will go off, Fight. fight took place last evening between two men on the corner of Irwin and Penn streets, in ;4eti one of them threw a pa *lug stone•ar the other, striking him on the knee, severely injuring him. In con sequence of the fact that the police force is extremely limited, and about to become mere fa, and as policemen, like all other mortals, ate not übiquitous, no arrests were made. A great many witnessed the outrageous proceeding, but no one was authorized to interfere. Well, we sup pose it is all right. District Court. In this Court a writ of Habeas Corpus directed to Capt. Steele, of the Hampton Dragoons, for the body of Taylor Duncan, on application of hie father, was argued. Proof being made that the yonag man was under twenty years of age, and had en listed without the emisent of his parents, it was 'ordered that he be discharged, Singular Death. A little boy named Andrew Simmons aged between eight and nine years, whose parents reside on Penn street, near Pitt, died night before last from having swal lowed a cent on Wednesday evening. Tne i phygica ti attending him had lacare.ted his throat badly in attempting to extricate it. COmmeree of the World.

Last night a special meeting of the Se lect Council was held for the purpose of taking into consideration the vote taken at the last regular meeting. in regard o the pay of the night police, Select Coun cil having non-concurred in the action of Common Council in regard to raising the wages of the , police. There were present Messrs. Allen, Herduian, Miller,McCar thy, Morrow, McClintock, Tompson, Reese, and J. Reed. The Council having been called to or der, the President pro tem., Mr. McCar thy, asked if some member would make a motion to reconsider the vote of non-con currence- After waiting some considera ble length of time, and repeating the ques tion several times, there being no disposi tion shown to bring the matter before the meeting, one of the members made a mo tion to adjourn, which was carried. Comparison between Gold and Exchange. _ From the Quarterly Trade Circular, we copy the following comparison between gold and exchange : A draft of sixty days sight on London at the rate of 110 23.100, is exactly what would cost a remittance in gold; therefore, when exchange is about 110.1 gold can be remitted. A sovereign, costing in New Yoik $4,- 89, is equal to exchange 110 33 100, or $4,90,6. One pound sterling, coined in 1863, is intrinsically worth $4,84 44, therefore one dollar is worth not quite 4 shillings pence, to which adding 9100 brings it to the.. original 4 shillings 6 pence, or $4.44 44. A. five-franc piece is worth intrinsically, after melting, at the value of the mint in Philadelphia, taking the grain at 4.3066 per grain, 94,26 86. The seigniorage 'im posed on the American currency in 1853 makes the five franc pieces worth in coin ed money of America 98 cents, or oar five franc, 101 for a dollar; 5.17 is par 60 days A twenty franc gold piece weighs 873: grains of 1000 fine gold, taking the grain at the value of 4.3066, it makes the twin ty franc gold piece worth $3.76 8275;, or the five francs piece 4.896,80. Not Her Name A note left at our desk informs us that the name of the lady who was injured by being run over at the corber of St. Clair and Penn streets a day or two since, was not Mrs. Myers, but Mrs. Or ner. All we have to say is, that her name was entered in the books at the St. Clair Hotel as Mrs. Myers, and it was there we obtained oar information. New Camp Camn Copeland is the name of a new camp that will be opened to day for the reception of troops. It is located at Braddock's Fields, about ten miles from the city.

CINCINNATI, July 31—The Commercial's Lexington special says: This morning our forces came upon the Rebels at Lances , ter, where a considerable fight ensued The enemy lost twenty killed and wound• ed, and nearly a hundred prisoners. A rebel torte of about file hundred took Stanford about noon to-day, but w. re driven cut by our cavalry with considera ble loss. At last advices they were hasti ly retreating towards Cumbland River. DISEASE Children DUQCOIN, 111., July 30.—General Logal, addressed about six thousand personB ht•r.: to-day. He was enthusiastically and applauded throughout. He talks like a man in downright earnest, wI,L , cares nothing for party, but who I, ~0 tirely interested in the welfare o! the country. The drift of his speech is simi lar to that delivered at Carbondale yt..,ter day. He argues that it is the duly of every one to stand by the government,and most unmercifully scores all the sympa thizers with the rebellion and those who find so much fault with the President,arrny and war, and everything else, except Jell Davis and Co., cod argues theconstitution• ality of war and its measures and shows the hypocrisy in those who see so much that's unconstitutional in the acts of the Admin• ACTS FOR TUE istration,but say nothing against unconsti tutionality of secession and acts of raids; runs peace men into all sorts of sharp corners and exposes their fallacy. Their arguments show they don't themselves know what they want. lie took up the Springfield peace resolutions, and showed if that; be Correct, all our glorious victo ries have been tending to subvert the Con stitution and the Government. If men are loyal they will favor the prosecution of the war, if not they will find all wan ner of excuses. If men oppose war it must be because - they fear their friends will get some and ohject because the soldiers com• witted depredations; when we started from Bruinsburg fur Jackson and Vicksburg with five rations, they faaght five battles and were reduced to one cracker apiece; the men were hungry ant! footsore: he told them to help themselves, and when ever his troops got into such a position they should have what they could get-- The Rebels do the same—steal every thing, oven to negroes—to keep us from getting any, but you never hear of that being wrong. Ile insisted that all should be or their country, right or wrong, and that people iihimid give soldiers their sympathy and supi ors. It is impossible to do Logan jo, in a telegraphic re port. At the close i tie st,eecli the following resolutions, presentcsl by Gen. Haynie, Was unahimously adopted: Resolved, That we will stand by the constituted authorities of the country in their efforts to Maintain, prer , rve and perpetuate the Union and ttie Constitu tion, at whatever cost and ligai , .st what ever power--domeitic or f;:iipign, that may assail it ; that although ice deplore the calamities of civil war, yet ail States must be restored to the Union, and laws must be executed alike allover the country, and peace must be secured by victory t un lees the rebe:s ley down their arms. Resolved, That we tender to all our brave and gallant soldiers, from the high est to the lowest, our warmrst sympathies and acknowledge our gratitude to them for their heroism, their sacrifices Lind for the imperishable renown shed upon our arms by their glorious deeds.

Epothl to the New York Newt FORTRESS MoNaoa, Jaly 27, 1883 The grea eat anxiety exists here in rela tion to the -success of Major General Fos ter, who has gone on agrabd expedition to a certain qUarter, where he hopes to give the Confederates more serious trou ble than they have had for some time past In my next dispatch I shall probe bly be able to give you the particulars of his great raid upon the territory of the enemy. Very important and trustv►orthy news has been communicated to me which must be briefly conveyed, though it bears with it only the inference that Fort Wagner has bern silenced. fhe bombardment of Fort Sumter has been commenced by the entire Equadron of iron-clads and mortar boats. Tee result will soon he known. General Johnxtou'a Army, The Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser has the following: The falling bask of obliston's army from Jackson wilt not alarm or dishearten anybody acquainted with the situation.— Jackson is not naturally a strong position, anctthe fortifications a:e mere temporary defenses. Pearl river is easily crossed in summer, and Grant, with a greatly saps• rior force, ((mild flank our army at pleas ure. If Johnston's forces had anything like`equalled the enemy's in numbers, he might have fought him in force in such a position, but not otherwise. Hs only policy has been, therefore, to hold Grant in check, and get his heavy ordnance and supply trains well in the rear before ta king a ctronerqi position irway from his antagonist. well knowing thatheis strength ened and the enemy weakened the further he pursues beyond a given point in the in terior. The first natural line of defense in this direction would appear to be the Tombig- bee, and n.x.t, the Alabama, tut, whether he will vo towards Mobile or come this way, we do . not know ; we suppose the latter.
