of adventure, we bad occasion to stop at the

years, throtitill all my Asiatic wanderings ; and
mutual attachment having arisen, he now con

myself that I understood Oriental manners and

httgan a survey.
Tha room was sixteen f,),3t, square—on tL east
and west sides there were no openings. The
walls were wattled, and setteg with red tapestry;
but for economy, this was stretched tightly along
the wall. The ceiling was comneeed cf beams,
ou the upper side of which planks were fasten
ed. There was apparently no opening commu
nicating, with the loft above. A lounge, covered
with damask, occupied one portion of the room,
while ottomans of various patterns were depos
ited iu the corner. On the north side was the
door of entrance. This I examined carefully,
and found upon the wooden bolt, which could be
drawn only from within, no mark of violence,
not even a fresh scratch. On the south side of
the Apartment were two windows—small, it is
true, but still of size sufficient to admit the in
gress of nn ordinary sized man. One was Ist
tieed--the other had the lattice removed. I ex
amined both the - there was no rubbing of
the paint, and no soot remaining which could

which the Mayor and Aldermen of our city

hold that snob a course on the part of any

ry assumpti. , n 11i PO wer—a tyranny, sustain
ed by no law—and a most dangerous infringe•
ment of the personal liberty of the citizen,
not to be tolerated in a free and enlightened
country.
in the case disposed of on Thursday, a re- I
port of whiTh has already been published ba
iur local column, the City Solicitor is said to
lave claimed that the Mayor had juris
'iction in cases of disorderly conduct, and
the Judge intimated. that he thought his posi
tion correct, and. that the Aldermen had no
,inrisdictionX such eases. In this opinion,
'n
o ..tts — t - irlation, both the learned City So
licitur and learned Judge are clearly wrong.
The Act of 21st Feb., 1797, which is still in
force, and which particularly defines who are
"idle and disorderly persons," makes it law
ful for any Justice of the Peace to commit
such persons to jail for a period not exceed
ing one month, but expressly gives the right
of appeal from the judgment of the Magis
trate to the Court of Quarter Sessions.
The Act of 24th Dec., 1774, against the
"lisor:icrly practice of firing guns" on cer
tain days, expressly gives jurisdiction in such
cas-s t., Justices of the Peace, Mayors, or oth
er head officers, who may flue, and in default
of payment commit hi prison for live days
"without bail or mainprize."
The Sunday law of April 221, 1794, which
covers several kind of disorderly conduct,
and the nut of Feb. 26,1855, which increases
the penalties of the act of '94, also give Alder
men especial jurisdiction iu these cases. The
Gth section of the act of 1.55 is in the fob'
lowing words
"Sec. 6, Any person violating, the provie
ions ci the tint szcti u .);:' Enid act for the ?up
presFion of vico and immorality and of unlaw
ful gaming, nal to restrain disorderly sports
and dissipation, app-oved. April 1794.,
within thy: County rf Alleg,hcay, being summar
ily convicted hereof before any Mayor, Bur
gess, Justice of the Peace, or :Alderman, shall
forfeit nod pay the sum of $25 with' costs, and
in default of payment, or of goody to levy upon
to satisfy iho same, shall be committed to the
county Drisou not lees than tea nor more than
thirty days."
Indeed, we think it scarcely requires an ar
gument to p....0ve that the Alderman possesses
all the niv.isterial powers of the Mayor.--
llc ieei . a Justice of the Peace, and is
emit two:red to perform all the functions which
th , i, laws devolve upon dint °thee.
Previous to 183,1, the law required that the
Mayor of the City should be elected from
among the Aldermen, and up to that time the
p•,wers of the Aldermen in all cases of sum
mary otoiviction under either acts of assent
lily or ordinances, were undoubted and undis
puted. The fact that the ltlayor is now elect
ed front the eliii3Ons at large, certainly does
tot dot' act from the thitioE and powers of the
.I.ldernion. I uzil th tint.. the Aldermen

when he comes tet examine the question, will
regard it in this light.
But again. It seems that the city ordi•
mince empowering the Mayor to act in cer
tain cases of breach of the public pod - order,
I Sae Layng's Digest, page 310,1 after defining
who are disorderly persons, requiees all such
p.:irsons as may be apprehended to be "brought
to the Mayor," - and upon conviction of "dis
orderly conduct calculated to disturb the
peace," he may fine them not less than one,
nor more than twenty-five dollars, at his dis
cretion. - Nothing is eaid about imprisonment
in default of payment of the fine, but that
power is given under a general ordinance.
This ordinance is Oat ied on the act of As
sembly, of IT7I, in regar d to the Philadelphia
night watch, which, as w ell as other enact
ments relating to the mu.nic.ipal government
of Philadelphia, was extended to Pittsburgh
by the original charter granted the city in
1816.
The wording of the ordinance would seem
to give the Mayor exclusive jutisdi . ction in the
eases which it designates, as the Aldermen
are nut mentioned. Nor was it necessary
that they should be,fur the sup; tolement to the
city charter passed April 15th, 1835, empow•
ere the Councils to "confer upon-. the Mayor
and Aldermen of said city the jurisdictit4
power and authority, to recove IT summarily
or by penal action, as the ease may be, any
fines and forfeitures for the viol ',ation of the
:provisions of any ordinances will, 3la have been
or may hereafter be enacted and prittiped by
said Councils for the government of said
city," the right of appeal being reserved.
The second section of the sumo act gives
"the Aldermen and Justices of the Peace of
every oity, incorporated township and borough
in this Commonwealth, power to hear and de
termine all actions of debt, for penalties for
the breach of any ordinance, by-law, or regu-
JUNE 26, 1858
lation of such city," &e.
This would seem to grant Aldermen a plain
enough power under penal ordinances, such
as this one against disorderly conduct un
doubtelly is, but for fear of mistakes, on the
231 of July, 1835, the Councils. in pursuance
of the power to do so, granted them by the
first section of the act, passed an ordinance
reaffirming the jurisdiction. power and au•
thority to the Mayor and Aldermen as ex
pressed in the act of Assembly, to recover
either summarily or by conviction,or by penal
action, all fines and forfeitures for the viola
tion of city ordinances,
Thus it is apparent that in cases of disor
derly conduct, whether under the old, but
still existing, acts of assembly, under the
more recent enactments known as the Liouor
Law, or under the ordinancies of the City
Councils, the Aldermen have authority equal
with, if not superior to, that of t he Mayor,—
It is the use, or rather abuse. of this authori
ty both ley Mayor awl Aldermen, of which
the public complain,
Neither the Mayor nor any Alderman has IL
right to commit summarily for disorderly
conduct NC ithuut imposing a fine, or granting
the right of appeal, and in the almost daily
convictions fur this offense, an unwarrantable
is ftken. A man sleeping on a cellar ,
too drunk to move, is not guilty of dis.
ly conduct, yet such customers are f re:
quently committed without flue and fo- this
offense. A man who knocks another down,
is guilty of assault and battery, and has a
right to be tried by a jury, yet, if the party
injured declines to prosecute, a °disorderly
conduct" comitment settles his case and se-
cures the costs.
A houseful of prostitute:4 are arrested on
camplaint J f a neighbor, who does not like
their proximity to his abode. Off they go
without "bail or mainprize" to jail for disor
derly conduct, and yet, degraded as they may
be, they are entitled to a jury trial for keep
ing a disorderly house. But the magisterial
outrages which have been ,committed in this
city under the sweeping charge of disorderly
conduct, have at last aroused the attention of
the public, and magistrates will find that it
;Übe more to their credit hereafter to con;
fine themselves within their legal powers,
and send up malefactors for drunkenness,
when that is their crime ; to bind them over
for other offenses they may have committed,
or, if they come within the legal definition of
disorderly conduct, to fine them first and im
prison them in default of payment, and not
assume the power of judge and jury, except
in such cases as the law has expressly grant
ed them summary power. A few indictments
for false imprisonment will soon settle the
question.
We have neither room nor inclination to•
day to speak of the charge that Aldermen
illegally retain the fines which they collect.
If the charge is true, there is certainly law
to reach them, and it is somebody's duty to
enforce it.
IMPORTAZIrr DECISIOII.
Our readers will remember the terrible
Railroad accident at Alliance Ohio, when a
train of the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Rail
road ran.into the Pittsburgh Fort Wayne and
Chicago Railroad, by which a number of lives
were lost, cn the 9th of December, ]s:i6. With
one exception all the persons killed, were at
the time of the accident standing on or near
the platform in front of the Alliance Station
House. The exception was an old lady from
Indiana, whose heirs at law brought suit
against tha Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chi.
cago Railroad Company, a the Court of Com
mon Please of Stark County, Ohio, and
which resulted in a verdict for the Com
This is the first of these cases that has
been tried, and as the Company obtained a
verdict in its favor in this case, where the per
son killed was a passenger on the train, we
supposo the Company have a good reason to
expect a similar verdict where the persons
were not on the train, and more especially in
the cases where they had not been brought to
Alliance on the train.
"TI Happy Union."
The Journal, in speaking f the delegates
appointed by the People's Convention, to at
tend the Harrisburg Convention says : "Le
not that Convention know that a contest of
which reasonable men ought to be ashamed,
exists in this county." The Gazette meanwhile
congratulates its fellow sufferers upon " the
happy union of those who were formerly sep
arated." Even, the political doctors of the
oprosition cannot agree.
Remains of Mr. Monroe.
We understand that the family of James
lonrce, Es-President of the United states,
have expf•essed to the Governor of Virginia
an earnest wish that the rerm;val of the re
mains of the venerated patriot and statesman
from the city of New York to Richmond, may
1;0 effected with as little display as possible
and without any unnecessary cost to the peo
plc of Virg,inia. A simple ceremony, it is
thought by th 1221, would be more in conformi
ty with the tiimplu habits of the deceased,
and \vith th,,sc feelings and wishes which he
would have expressed, if lie could have an
ticipated the occasion.
Nor.: 'Republican Corruption.
The condition of the lowa Treasury has re
cently been inquired into by a special corn
mission, and a deficiency of $108,771 88 has
been found to exist. This large sum was
taken out of the treasury, and the treasurer
has nothing to show for it, but unsecured and '
valueless drafts, checks and certificates of
deposit of certain private sham Republican
bankers and individuals. It appears from the
transaction that it was necessary for the suc
cess of Republicanism, and especially for the
personal profit of leading wire•workers, that
over one hundred thousand dollars of the
people's gold and silver, should be taken out
of the Treasury and distributed among the
corruptionists, and it was accordingly done.
In Allegheny county, the money is not taken
out of the Treasury because there scarcely
ever any in it to take, for the reason that
Republican Tax Collectors do not "Pay it in,
until they are nominated for popular offices,
such as County Commissioner, for instance.
It amounts, however, to the same thing. The
tax payers are equally the sufferers, whether
their money is taken out of the Treasury for
banking purposes, or kept out to have war
rants, Both the county and the city have
been compelled from time to time to negotiate
temporary loans at heavy discounts while
thousands of dollars of the people's money
has been" earning something" in the hands
of the tax c ollectors, many of whom have
been known to deposite the funds collected
by them on interest with private bankers, the
treasury meantimeia a state of collapse.

Charles Dickens has separated from his
wife; "on the ground of an unconquera
ble incompatibility in their respective charac
ters." his daughters will remain with him,
whilst Charles Dickens, Jr., will live with
his mother. The stories to the effect that
this unfortunate step is due to Dickens' crim
inal intercourse with a London actress is de
nied most positively by a correspondent of the
New York 7'imes. In a card in Household
Words of June 9th, Dickens himself—in his
own name and that of his wife—gives the lie
flatly to these rumors. They have lived to
gether for over twenty years. They separ
ate, we are given to understand by Dickens,
because they cannot agree. It is a strange,
sad affair, we want to believe as will the num
berless admirers of the author of Dlvid Cop
perfield all over America, that these stories
defamatory of his good name are wholly and
wickedly false.
In hie card Dickens says:

portrait of Govern or Packer, painted by Mr.
W. Conarroc, of this city, fur the Capitol at
Harrisburg. It is admirable as to r...si-m
-blanee,-and it is equally worthy of praise as
it regards the pose of the figure, the natural
ness of the flesh tints, the management of
the chiaroscuo, and (what makes the especial
value of the portrait) the expression of the
features. As a work of art, this will be a
valuable addition to the portraits of guber,
natorial personages in the Capital at Harris
burg."
Judge Gillis, member of Congress, from the
Jefferson District, Hon. John Corode, pies•
ent member from the Westmoreland district,
and Hon. Henry D. Foster, who will be the
next member from that district, were all in
the city yesterday, stopping at the S,!utt
Hoes,:.

The Niagara is ezpected at Trinity Bay
about the first of July. The Uovernment
will dispatch a steamer to pilot the Niagara
to a point fur winding the cable. The office
at St. Johns is to be placed in connection
with the office at Trinity Bay, thus forming
a complete connection between London and
New York, and all other offices throughout
the country. Look out for European news on
the Fourth of July in "one hour from Lon•
don."
THE preEent Black Republican Legislature
of Connecticut, passed a bill proposing to
amend the State Constitution so as to allow
negroes the unrestrained right of suffrage,
and that they also propose to require twenty
six years residence from white men born on
foreign soil to entitle them to the right of citi.
zonship.
Tua political firm of Todd, Flanigan,
Thomas, Swope, &c., which, on the 1-lth of
July, is to make the grand attempt to unite
the piebald forces of the opposition at the
Harrisburg Convention, will bras e all the ele
ments of a political ollapodrida to mingle.
Each portion distrusts the other, and we can
see no bond which can unite them. The Erie
Constitution, a Black Republican journal,
"warns Republicans to beware of the scheme."
It says:
The Republicans can set it down as an es
tablished tact that the Sanderen,
Swope faction will never keep faith in any
political arrangement. They are ' , Artisan
guerrillas, unfit for association Nvith wen who
are governed by honest motives in political
action. They have cheated ue in thr , e cam
paigns, and it remains to be seen whether
Republic:lns will allow themselves again to be
gulled by such tricksters.
GEnerill JEtllleS li.o*Deltild
We find in a late number of the San Fran
cisco Globe, an extract from a British paper,
published at Hong 1\ 011 g, China, which
speaks in terms of merited compliment of
Gen. James l' email of.this State, ;vim has rep.
resented our country at Hong Kong for sev
eral years. The 0/06e after speaking highly
of General Keenan, personally, and express
ing its gratification at the circumstance that
he has never hesitated for a moment, oven
though it did sometimes bring him in to a col
lision with the British local authorities, to
"take an invariable and uncompromising stand
to support and maintain the rights and privi
leges of the flag entrusted to his charge,"
proceeds to quote from the English journal as
follows :
We never have had but one ineumbcnt since
the system of the Mercantile Consuls was abol
ished, and he has never quitted his post, unless
for very brief intervals, since his first arrival.
Mr. Keenan, our readers generally may be
avrore, is about to proceed home on leave and
will carry with him the respect and esteem of
the whole community. Notwithstanding his
having fallen into collision, upon several occasions
with our local authorities, and meagre the uncom
promising stand he has invariably made to support
and maintain the rights and privileges, whether
real or imaginary, of the flag entrusted to his
.charge, he has always had the geed wishes of
the British community, from the determination
and consistency he has invariably evinced, when
undue interferencewas attempted in the exercise
of what he considered his evolusive functions. At
the same time, his urbanity and never-tiring
spirit of accommodation, have so identified him
with the interests of the whole mercantile com
munity, and have formed so strange a contrast
with the dogged in efficiency of our own officials,
as to cause him to be looked upon as a permanent
appurtenance of the Colony, from which his ab
sence will create a positive blank.

Some months ago, a boy, the eon of a poor
laborer, living in the southern part of the County
near tho mountain, was the subject of criminal
prosecution in the Quarter Sessions of this exuu
ty, convicted and sentenced to a short imprison
ment and pay of costs. The father import uted
the commissiondre to release tho costa. They
took the father's bond, telling him in a.j.,ke that
they w.u'd take three live Rattlesnakes in the
month of June, in discharge of the sou's liabili
ties, which proposition was assented to by the
father, and the buy diseharge.l. One day last
week, the father appeared in the commissioner's
ofbee with a pine box, about 24 by 12 inches in
which were caged three monstrous large rattle
snakes in full life and vigor, and demanded his
bond. The commissioners were for some time
puzzled to know what to do in the matter. They
were 8311 It was finally concluded to deliver
them into the custody of Jailor Kline, who has
theta - safely caged in the jail. What disposi
