Harry Woods, Esq., Sheriff of Alleghe ny county, deported this life on Friday morning at eleven o’clock, at Cresson Springs, where he had been for some time past, endeavoring to recuperate his health, which has been failing. On Thursday in telligence was received that he was then in a dangerous condition, and on Friday the news of his death came over the wires. The late Mr. Woods had resided nearly all his life in this city, and at the time of his death, was about fifty years of age. He was formerly Collector of Customs in this city. In 18G1 he was elected Sheriff of this county, his competitor at the time being Joshua Rhodes, Esq. Although , prevented by physical disability from giv ing that strict personal attention to the * office that he desired to do, yet he always watched over th 6 office to see that the du ties were promptly performed. 1 it is the intention to bring his remains • to this city for interment. The time of { the funeral will be announced in the pa* pers. . * f ulled Stales District Court. Before Judge McCandless. —The case again^.^ s several Bridge Companies for issuing pu t^ er checks, were called up, when counsels reprU* en^ed t 0 the Court that it is the intention the Companies to file demurrers so as to .the question of their liability under the A^ 1 Congress. In the course of his remaf 1 * 8 !, Charles Shaler, Esq., counsel for the hela bridge, stated that the Company been compelled to io3ue paper checks on account of the scarcity of cents. He further stated that when nickle was at a premium, passengers would tender a five cent postage currency for the bridge toll, would receive their change in nickle, and after walking a short distance on the bridge would return, evidently doing bo for the purpose of procuring Bmall change. The traverse jurors were discharged,and the Court adjourned until this morning at eleven o’clock. Row in Allegheny. A street fight occurred in Middle Alley, Second Ward, Allegheny, on Friday af ternoon, resulting in sore heads and black eyes to some of the participants. The quarrel commenced about a trade of horses wh*cfc hid been made by two of tbe par ties. A colored man, by some means, got mixed up in tbe dispute, and was im mediately by several persons. He took refuge in the tavern of Mr. Neeley, on the North Common, whither the crowd followed him, one ruffian throwing a stone through a window at him. The negro finally made his escape, and the crowd dispersed. A Pleasant Pic-Nic; The grand Union Pic-nic held by the ladies of St. James’ Catholic Church, in Lorenz’ Grove, on Thursday last, was de cidedly one of the most successful, and pleasing of the season, as everything passed off pleasantly, and the best of order pre vailed. not a single instance having oc curred to mar the pleasure of the day. The grotfnds presented a very handsome as the fair managers gave yent to their patriotism by tbe display in all quarters of ourhonored old flag, while mottos of patriotic sentiments were dis tributed in profusion about the grove. Everything was managed in a most liberal and we are pleased to state that the Pfjtcegds derived from the pic-nic are more ad equate tj defray the expenses of the churC* l * or it was given.

The Campbells at Diimoat. Dr. J. A. Heed, the superintendent of Dixmont Hospital, invited ibis celebrated troupe ot Minstrels to Dixmont to give aD entertainment for :he bene.fi: of his patients. They readily consented, and Friday afternoon was set apart tor the concert. They took the noon train, and soon arrived at Dixmont Station, where Mr. Musaler, the gentlemanly Stewart of the hospital was waiting to receive them. A short walk brought them to the Asylum, where they wer? cordially welcomed by Dr. Reed. A substantial meal was pre pared for the party, and all did justice to it. Alter dinner they were Bhown over the building, which ia arranged in every par ticular Ter the convenience and comfort of the unfortunate inmates. The party then proceeded to the concert room where ali out the most violent of the patients had already aaeembled, and having understood that a musical entertainment had been provided for them, were in a feverish state of expectation. The Campbells performed in their usual goou style, and we have never seen a more delighted audience. Every piece was en cored, »wo or three times, which, Mr. DampeH states—was an evidence of re turning sanity. In fact, everything passed ,qIF pleasantly, and everybody was delight ed.

On Friday afternoon, at six o’clock, an accident occurred at the New Market House, Allegheny, resulting in the death of an elderly man named Jackson Smith. The deceased was employed in wheeling stones to some masons who were building a vault on the north-east corner of the new market honse. On crossing a plank with a barrow-load of stones, it gave way, precipitating him into the vault, striking his head on a large stone and breaking his neck, thereby causing instant death. The deceased boards at the • tavern ot Chas. Steveeson, at the corner of Ohio street, and the West Conjmous, Allegheny, and leaves a family of three sons and one daughter, all of whom are grown up.. Tne coroner held an inquest, and a verdict of accidental death rendered. Before Commissioner Bailey. United States va. Jacob Becker. The defendant as charged ou oath of John M.

His mission was entirely Eii'.cessful. lie secured the conviction ot the two counteifeiters of United States notes at the York assizes. One party swore lhat over 3,000 ten dollar bills had been prinitd and the plates destroyed. It is believed this is the only attempt whicr. has been made to utter such paplr in England. Specimens brought hither are only tol erably well executed, and could be easily detected in this country by the poor qual ity oi the ink and badly engraved likeness of Liucoln. -i - L’eut. Commander English, in a com munication to the Navy Department, dated July 2‘v.h. states that nnder instruc tions from acting iDar Admiral Bailey, he assumed command of the blockading squadron off the eastern coast of Florida. He dispatched an expedition np Mosquito Inlet, which captured a sloop laden with cotton and a schooner unladen, A large quantity of cotton on shore was burned aud several vessels destroyed, one cf which had her cargo in and was about to sail. A fopce was landed, which destroyed all the houses occupied by troops. On land ing this party was fired by a few stragglers. The conduct of all connected with this expedition was most praiseworthy. No one was injured. The boats reached and scoured the extensive lagoon for twenty miles, as far up as a blockade ruDner could go.

New York, August 14. —The commer cial eays; This has been a very active day in the Stock Market. The spirit of {speculation seems to have broken out auew. Uiß stated that the Erie and Cen tral Railroads refuse to prorate with the Western roaua in the centest going on,and that the same proportion is now paid for the New York service that was before the reduction ot fare. Parties who are usually well posted, however, in such matters in sist that this is loi the case and are acting on the opinion. They assert that the New York companies are prorating, and that a reduction of freight as well as pas senger fares is about to commence.— The course of the market however Bhows that this impression is Dot general.

A scientific writer says that bad news weakens the action of the heart, oppresses the lungs, destroys the appetite, stops di gestion, and partially suspends all the functions of the system. An emotion of shame Rushes the face; tear blanches it; joy illuminates it; and an instant thrill electrified a million of nerves. Surprise spurs the pulse into a gallop. Delirium infuses great energy. Volition commands, and hundreds of muscles spring to exe cute. Powerful emotion often kills the body at a stroke; Cbilo, Diagoras, and Sophocles died of joy at the Grecian games. The news of a defeat killed Phillip the Fifth. The doorkeeper of Congress ex pired upon hearing of the surrender of Cornwallis. Eminent public speakers have often died in the midst of an impas sioned burst of eloquence, or when the deep emotion which had produced it sud denly subsided. Largrave, the young Parisian, died when he heard that the mu sical prize, for which he'hsd competed, had been awarded to another. fi LIRE SAVINGS INSTITUTION, NO MJf HO SuiitnGold street, opposite tbo Uoubq.

The Army Surgeon did not euro us, and 1 was reduoedtoskm aDdbone. Amongthecom pany were quite a number of members who had worked in your Laboratory at Sing Sing, They wore not sick, because they used Brandrcth's Fills. These men prevailed upon me and others to use the Pills, and we were all cured ini from two to five days. After this cur boys used Bran dreth s Pills for the typhus fever, C"lds, rheum a tism, and in no case did they fail to restore health.
