111.0.11INING, AUGUST 12, 1884
Avoiding the Draft.—lt has been discov
ered that several attempts have been made to
escape the draft, and that means have been re.
sorted to for that purpose, unworthy of the pa
triotism of a'genuine citizen. As we have al
ready informed Our readers, some of the pre
cincts had already succeeded in filling their quo
tas. and consequently secured themselves
against the coiningdraft. This fact coming to
the knowledge of other precincts, efforts have
been made by some parties to have their names
enrolled in the precincts which had freed thetn
- selves from all liability, and thereby. secured for
themselves an exemption from the service. Ac
cordingly, numerous certificates of removal
were presented, and the immigration into those
precincts was increasing in a wonderful man
ner. The Fourth Ward of our city, as we
have stated on a former occasion, proved the
meat fortunate in its efforts to avert-the draft
from within its limits, for which reason, Acme
well-meaning gentlemen displayed a desire to
replace the enlisting population, which under
other circumstances would be highly recom
mendable, but which in the present condition
of the country was deemed entirely out of
place. The many certificates of removal crea
ted a suspicion in the mind of Oaptain Foster,
who notified the Oommissloners of the Fourth
Ward of the fact, :lesirlng Ahem to investigate
into the matter. At a meeting held by the cit
rens of the Fr nt th Ward; the subject was
brought before them, and strange to say, the
citizens, although sadly reduced in numbers,
objetf.letl to any such immigration into their
Ward, and irpointed a committee to inquire
into the correctness' of the facts, and upon in
vestigation it was found that some of those
gentlemen who had presented certilicstee of re
moval were bona-fide residents of other sub
districts The cases of these parties will re
ceive a thorough legal Investigation, and we are
afraid that their efforts will not be regarded in
the light which they would have them, once
they fall under the heavy hand of the law.
A Gitllly Eiusband.—A case was brought
before Mayor Lowry recently, which has been
very unusual within the limits of our city, and
in which a.man named Peter Wilbur is charged
with the greatest breach of infidelity towards
his wife. We heard the particulars in refer
, ence to the charge from the lady herself, who
' made her statements with such candor and.
fidelity, that we have no apparent reason to
controvert them. it appears that having to
attend personally to a legacy which was lett
her in Germany, her native country, she left
the United States some time ago on that bus.
Mess, and having settled It. returned to her
adopted country in possession of several thous
and dollars in gold. But her happiness was
marred not a little when aLe was Informed of
the infidelity of her husband in her absence,
and that he' hail taken to himself another for
his paramour. This, of course, aroused her
indignation, and a rather stormy time followed
her arrival. lint having ascertained a few days
ago, that her husband and hie paramour were
again together, she on enquiry learned the
whereabouts of the guilty pair, and found theta
In a house on Water street, in the same room
together. She demanded admittance, but was
refused, and she thenceforth attempted to force
the door. After some difficulty, she succeeded
in obtaining entrance, and she immediately at
tacked the guilty woman, giving her a sound
thrashing. Although she discovered nothing
which could prove with Intrinsic evidence the
guilt of the parties, still the circumstantial evi.
deuce is no great against them, that they hat e
hardly any hopes of escaping the vengeance of
the law. In making the above statement, the
woman was so overpowered by her emotion
that she swooned several times, and was only
restored to sensibility through the medium of
camphor and cold water.
Aid to Chambersharg.—The cry of the
suffering victims of the record raid has reached
this city, and it has been promptly responded
to by our charitable cttizens. They are truly
worthy of our compassion and demand succor In
a voice capable of softening a heart of atone.
Their greatest enemy would rejent on behold
ing the poverty and destitution of those once
happy citizens, arTd the ferocious lideCausland
himself would shudder on considering his work
of destruction, and the misery to,which be re
duced his helpless victims. Shall not we who
under similar circumstances were saved from
attraction through the timely succor of Cham
bersburg, and other cities, reward them for the
benefits they so generously co:den : ell upon ust
The rich as well as the poor should concur in
performing this work of charity. There is no
one who is not in a position of advancing some
thing, and all should unite in relieving the suf
ferings of a fellow-citizen.. Contributi 0011 should
be left at the store of Eaton hider= S Co..
whence they will he forwarded as soon as possl.
ble to the destitute sufferers.
A New Company.—A new military com
pany is now being formed among the members
of the Pittsburgh gymnastic Association.
Although none but members of the Association
are allowed to join, the company will soon be
completed.. At an informed meeting held on
Wednesday evening not less than forty of the
members enrolled their names. The next meet
ing will be hell on Saturday, when no doubt
the organization w,ill be completed. This com
pany will be entirely independent from any
ward or borough and the members of the asso
ciation intend to fill it themselves exclusively-.
The Trirt—The great pacing match be
tween the Pittsburgh horse "nteLl.ousler" and
the Ohio nag "John C. Heenan" for one thous
sand dollars came off on Tusaday in Cleve
lan& The Pittsburgh horse came out victor
torious in three successive heats in 2:40, 2:38,
and 2:37. The bettings were high on "31ctious •
ler" and the odds were in some instances as
great as ere°, to 20. It Anent he denied that
we have an admirable knack of gaming the vic
tory over all our opponents, and we succeed so
well in whatever we undertake that we can
beat "all creation."
Boy Rldnappod.—Yesterday a young child,
only two 'years old, named John Smith, was
kidnapped by soma unknown man, while play
ing atthe hydrant near his father's house. The
stranger took the child up in his arms, claiming
him as his own, and crossed the bridge over in
to our city. Another little boy who was pres
ent, and witnessed the kidnapping of his com
panion immediately informed the parents of
the child, who accordingly notified the police.
A diligent inquiry is now being made, and no
doubt the child will be recovered.
We have been called on to announce that Thos.
J. Keenan mi., will address the Democratic
Club this evening, at the Democratic Club Hall
on Fifth street. All those who wish to obtain
a knowledge of Democratic principles expos
ed by a gentleman of eminent merit and remark
able eloquence,are invited to attend. Owing to
the established popularity of this gentleman
as an accomplished speaker, we doubt not that
he will be favored with a large attendance.
pie-nic of the Ladies Sodality
connected with St. Bridgets church came off
yesterday with unusual eclat. Only those who
.were invited were permitted to attend, and con
cecuently, the day passed off merrily among a
select party of friends and acquaintances. The
heavy shower which fell in the afternoon in
terrupted theyamuseracuats for a while, but after
it was over the umusements were renewed with
additional vigor.

field. The dliticulty'Will increase as the time
approaches, and the scarcity of men will ren
der it nearly impossible to pro&tre a represen.

draft, and as nearly every one will wish to send
a substitute in the army who is in a position to
do so, substitutes will be so few and their de
mand will be so great, that no man in ordinary
citcumstances will be able to buy one. For
these reasons we would advise those who are
subject to draft, to raise a sufticiqni sum of
money to promote the volunteer movement, and
by that means avert the draft.
Firc at Falb ext.—A. destructive fire broke
out recently in the manufacturing town of
rallston, Beaver county, destroying a large
amount of property, and inflicting damage
amounting to the sum of $30,.000. Its origin has
not been ascertained, neither did - it appear from
which of the buildings it proceeded amorg the
many which were destroyed. Some of the manu
facturers sustained large losses, and more dam
age wonid have been sustained were it not for
a fire extinguishing apparatus which succeed
ed wonderfully in arresting its progress.

tended to recognize the new Mexican
Empire without waiting for the States

brought within the authority of the new
Government. Lord Howard called at
tention to the enlistment of emigrants in
America, and complained of subjects
being entrapped, and urged watchful

American authorities would endeavor
to check abuses. Several speeches were
made, including one by Taylor, Who de
fended the Northern Government., which
was ckitermined, be said, to put down
the slaTe trade of the rebels. On the

Queen's speech was read by commis

About Thirty Lives Lost
WASHINGTON, August 11.—A letter
from City Point of the 10th gives an
account of an explosion of a boat loaded
with ammunition. Buildings 'were de
molished, tents scattered, and horses
killed in every direction. The new de
pot building was a mass of ruins, and a
number of persons were killed and
wounded. The boat was being unload
ed by negroes, numbering nearly one
hundred, and it is supposed a shell must
have dropped which communicated the
fire to the whole lot. Luckily most of
the shells, &T., struck the steep bank of
the landing, or the loss of life would
have been large. The Postoffice and
Adams Express office were nearly
thrown down by the large number of_
personsoceupying them, who miracu
lously escaped with slight bruises.
A Lout loaded with stores, lying along
side another, mas torn to pieces, a

GUERRILLA DEPREDATIONS.
LO1'1 , 1"11.1.E, Aug. 11.—The remains
of Gen. Greathouse, recently Colonel of
4 , Rth Ills., passed here for home this
evening
About daylight yesterday 20 guerril
las, under Dupaster, entered the town
of Brandenburg, Ky., and were driven
nut by five home guards, armed with
double-barreled shot-guns. The guer
rillas then sent a note demanding an
immediate surrender of the town. The
home gnards refused to comply, but
