A recently imported novelty the now celebrated Duches redengote was a cynosure to which many eyes were directed. There were also presented to the publio gaze yesterday ao infinite variety of basque patterns and patterns for children's clothing of all kinds. It would be impossible to conceive of any taste that could not be suited by some one or more of the various styles that were shown.

EXCITEMENT IN BBIGHT0X. Arrra a mm him Wife airia mt be Har4erl their Owa Child-A Wcwk Case. The people of Brighton have been greatly excited, for the last week or more, over a supposed case of murder.

An investigation was begun on Sunday and yesterday the snirpected parties were examined before Justice Gor ham. The circumstances were reported to Sheriff Campbell, and on Monday Vnder-SherilT Campbell quietly made an examination. The sheriff learned that Charles Dinsmore, aged twelve, stepson of John Dunham, had disappeared about ten days since and that suspicions of foul play were excited by the stories of his little sister, a- child about seven years of age. The little girl attends the village school and related both to her playmates and the teachers. Misses Jewett and Had, that her father had killed her brother by a blow the forehead with an axe, and that both parents had then buried the body in the gar den.

The child said the boy was wet when came home and that he had been drown Persisting in these assertions to every body, the girl Ida alarmed the whole neighborhood and this led to the in vestigation. Sheriff Campbell, after searching the premises and questioning Dunham and wife, left them with the advice not to quit tbe house on any account for the pres ent. The village authorities had a constable watch the place all night, and the official yes terday found the pair setting out as they said, search ot the missing boy. They were then arrested and brought before Justice Gorbam. Our reporter accompanied Under-Sheriff Campbell to Brighton yesterday afternoon.

Dunham and his wife were in the yard of the justice's bouse. The man is about forty years ot age and looks and talks like a harmless, unintelligent and poor spirited representative of humanity. His wife, Matilda, is voluble, slatternly and vul gar but to use an Irish expression, the better man of the two. She said the boy left home Tuesday, week before last, in search of a place to work, having promised to come back for his clothing when he got employment. They bad become alarmed by his long absence.

And hearing that a canal driver, de- cribed as a mere boy had been drowned Albany, concluded that this was their son as he might easily have sought employment from some boat captain. The little girl Ada was found on the school- house steps. Assistant-District Attorney McDonald, who had arrived to see what there was of the matter, had just been questioning her but could glean no satisfactory information. The child refused to accompany even her teachers to her parents' house, begging that she might be allowed to join them in the justice's garden near by. In answer to repeated questions, she said her father struck the boy on the forehead and that the body was buried in the hog-pen.

The children told horrible stories of the manner in which the little girl had been beaten by Dunham for telling the story, but a moment after our reporter's arrival, he noticed that the child's face brightened up when her father came in sight with a younger child in his arms and she ran to meet him with the reverse of fear. The house where the supposed tragedy oc curred is about a mile northeast of the village, on the farm of Mr. Lyon, for whom Dunham had been at work. The family lived in this city till within the last few mouths. The little girl Ada says she is six years old She is small and not bright, appearing to talk purposeless, like her mother.

The assistant district attorney, the under-sheriff and our reporter arrived at the deserted house and found that it answered to the character of its late occupants in not being of the most inviting character. It is a low frame dwell ing, who a oiiapiuaiea niwe jcninuiey stuck forward on the room as of threatening to fall on the person who might have the temerirty to approach the front door. There were as many windows furnished with rags as with glass, and the place had that sort of tumble down air, which is the exact impression produced by Dunham himself. The party at once made their way to a long deserted sty in rear of tbe plowed lot, and here an oblong space of loose soil showed that some one had been digging there for some purpose. Sheriff Campbell forced the door of the house and our reporter seizing a hoe which hejfound inside, repaired again to the sty where a little not un beneficial exercise served to show that the body had not been buried in the hog-pen.

Aiter mousing about the premises for some time and looking into every room of the house, five in number, th party went their way no wiser than they came. One act of humanity ought not to be left unnoticed. The Dunhams in their hasty exit locked in an infinitesimal kitten, whose feeble cries attracted notice as the only sign of life about the premises. Luckily a a cup of milk was found on the table and this was quickly placed within the reach of the helpless tenant who now, for the first time apparently, imbibed the liquid in any other but the natural way formamaiia or its age. The suspicions of the neighbors about the house and the family which lately occupied it are probably not lessened, from the fact that a woman cut her throat in the same shantee some two years since.

It has therefore a bad reputation and all sorts of horrors are readily imagined to be enacted within its low and dingy walls; for, to change an old proverb slightly 4 Give a house an ill-name and hang its occupants. However, there are certainly two or three points this case which need clearing up. The lad is missing, was last seen in the vil lage three days alter his parents say he left home. Then there is the child's story, and finally the general belief of the people of the town that a terrible deed has been enacted. Unless some further evidence is obtained, the Dunhams will, of course, be discharged.

In the meantime, if they are innocent, the best thing they can do is to search high and low for the lad, as nothing but his presence will ever satisfy the neighbors that murder has not been perpetrated. Broke Threagh MrlSge. About 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon a block of granite weighing between seven and eight tons was being drawn on a truck, by four horses, to the yard of Peter Pitkin, on "West Main street. The horses had just reached the east side of the Genesee Valley bridge on that street, when the flooring of that structure gave way and the stone, supping from the truck crushed through the timbers and lodged on the tow path below. The horses were kept under control and when the stone went down, they drew the truck out.

A canal boat was moo rea uirecviy un der tbe bridge and lay against the east bank. The stone fell within about a foot of it, but iteeeived no injury whatever. It will cost several hundred dollars to repair the damage done to the bridge. Bit ark lei la a New foraa. Two boys, named William Free and Charles Muldooo, were arrested yesterday on a warrant issued by Commissioner Storrs for setting fire to letters deposited in a box on the corner of Smith and Bolivar streets.

It appears that in a boyish spirit of mischief they had dropped lighted matches into the box, and had thus done'oonsiderabU damage to its contents. As they are both quite young, they will probably not be very severely punished, but others may take warn irr from them not to repeat tbe offense. Med dling with letter-boxes In that way is rather dangerous business. art lei. e.

Yesterday afternoon ft boy Ware playing on the slip of ground that lies between the river and race, on the east aide, they discovered a box, nicely papered and tied up. Upon further investigation they found in it the body of an infant, and though considerably frightened, they retained sufficient courage to rearrange the coverings and notify officer Bendon, who was near by. He caused it to be conveyed to Coroner Morrison's residence. Dr. Daly, who was called, pronounced the body to be that ot aa infant about seven months old, born but a few hours, ard it birth the result of an abortion.

Coroner Morrison will thoroughly investigate the ease. Kir. ostterwar. Aa alarm from box 35, called the department out yesterday forenoon. The cause of the alarm was a fire in a barn owned by Robert Renfrew on King street.

The bam was consumed, but the exertions of the department and ot neighbors who turned out in force, saved two houses close by that were at one time threatened with destrue-tion. On ot theate, owned by Edward Ange-vine, was slightly damaged. Mr. KeaTrew, of P. Tbe clerk began reading in the matter ot a claim of the water commissioners for 0 when Aid.

Kelly interrupted by motion to receive, file aud publish, Cr-ried. The clerk read a communication from the mayor reappointing Daniel Warner a member of the board of public works for five years. Tbe clerk also read the veto by the myor of the resolution recalling the vote to stop proceedings in the United States court against the water commiBsioners. A motion was made to publish and the ayes and nays were called. Aid.

Kelly thongbt it wag a queer proceeding to call tbs roll in a matter of this trivial character. When the mayor vetoed the resolution, he was resorting to sharp practice worthy only a Philadelphia lawyer. The mayor had sort of power to veto a resolution of the kind. It was not an appropriation of money and none of his business. The motion to receive file and publish prevailed, ayes 15, nays 13.

Aid. Kelly called up his resolution for the sale of the house for idle and truant children and for the removal of he inmates to orphan asylums. The alderman took the floor to argue the question, saying that since the res- olution was first presented he had become convinced that the first part of it should be stricken out. Referring to the history of the house he said tbe founders, George W. Parsons, and other leading citizens, were now free to say that the institution not come up to their expectations.

All agree that the children should be inventoried, and those guilty of crimes sent to the house of refuge. for the others, it there were any whose parents were unwilling to support them, the latter should be made to do so, and the rest might be taken, if Protestant, to the Protestant orphan asylums, and if Catholics, to Catholic asylums. The manner in which the house had been conducted was a huge swindle. The Bpeaker, therefore, presented resolution to tbe effect that the institution closed as soon as arrangements could be made for the removal of the children. He then moved to postpone action for one week.

Aid. Herzberger wanted to know if -the city was not compelled to keep up the institution. If that was so why close it. The cost during the last four years' leaving out the expense of buildings, was only $33,000 or $1.60 a week for each person it. Orphan asylums, he believed, asked $2.

00. Several aldermen corrected him by saying that the expense was but one dollar in the orphan asylums. Aid. "Whitmore denied that all the people Rochester were in favor of abolishing the house. He might not have met with such high-flown people as Aid.

Kelly had, but those he bad encountered were agreed that the house was a valuable one. He moved the indefinite postponement of the resolution. Aid. Cowles moved a reference to the law committee to settle the question whether the city could abolishtfre institution. Aid.

Kelly arose to reply to aio. nmi- more. it was not nis tauit tne latter coma not reach the higher plane on which he. Aid. Kelly, moved.

He mourned for his friend whom he had tried to elevate but who wouldn't stay where he was dragged. It was always as in this case s-hen a man introduced a measure of a reformatory char acter, there was plenty of people to oppose it. He had found that the city owned sixty-seven acres of land about the institu tion. Why lose the interest on that amount by supporting a few children, part of whom ought not to be there. He had looked up the legal question and found that all the city had to; do was to provide for truant children, not to support bastards, as had been done extensively.

If his resolution wag lost he should fight the in stitution with all the weapons inhia power; lie knew all about it, having been a faith ful manager for years. Aid. Herzberger remarked that Aid. Kelly had never attended the meetings of the man agers. The state had appropriated $9, 000 to the institution, of whichja certain man had pocketed $3, 000 or $4, 000, and neither the state nor city would ever see it again, there had been mismanagement, but he doubled the hjolicv of cetting rid of the institu tion.

Aid. GrifTen asked if there, was not some provision in the grant of part of the land so that it would revert.if not usedfor this par ticular purpose. Aid. Kelly held there.was no suca. bar to the city's title.

Aid. onejuece of property bought of Mr. Fly one lot was given for the express uses ofthehouse only, and.could not be sold. Mr, Thomas, architect of the front street public building, was voted $5, 000 in full for his services. The report of theV'in cent place bridge com mittee came up and was again postponed.

Aid. Fleckenstein moved that the board proceed to elect additional members to the poor committee. Tabled. Aid McMullen moved to add members to the fire department committee. Tabled.

Two young men, lounging on the grass in Wadaworth square, during the noon hour on Monday, took occasion to us vile and ob scene language in the hearing of and intend ed for the ear of two school girls of number 13 publio school. The matter being resorted to the principal, Mr.

ParslialL satisfying him self that the report was true, had them under arrest before 2 o'clock. Although at first stoutly denying the charges, they finally ad mitted them and made the parents the most ample apologies and were released. These yeungjnen may congratulate themselves upon falling into such hands as the father of these girls, and escaping with only a confes sion and an apology, and a scathing rebuke from Police Justice Wheeler. The course of Mr. Parshall in thia matter is worthy of spe cial mention, and these young men have been taught a lesson which they will not soon for get.

If all instances ot this sort were dealt with as promptly as this, fewer insults would be offered to respectable young ladies in the streets of our city. A aether Kersweaa Aeriaeai.

Mrs. Freuderville was engaged in whitewashing near a stove, over which was suspended a can of kerosene oil. By some accident the can was jarred from the hook upon which it was hanging, and it fell upon the stove. It immediately exploded and the burtiing oil was thrown upon the clothing of the woman, and in a moment she was enveloped in flames. Persona near ny came to her assistance as soon as possible, but not until she was very badly burned.

A messenger was immediately dispatched for a phy sician who procured the services of Dr. telul- weli. Upon examination the woman was found to be very badly burned about the anus, chest and lower extremities. Dr. Still -well did all that oould be done to relieve her sufferings, and at last accounts she was said to be in a fair way for recovery.

Intemperance, eta.

The meeting was conducted on the plan of ten-minute speeches from tbe various preachers present, and therefor the exercises, inter-sjrnl also as tbey were with ft-epient anecdotes, are rather difficult to report. However, we Rive an outline of the speeches made. Tbe meeting was opened by the reading of twenty-fifth chapter of I'roverbs and the offering of prayer by Mrs. Francis Jenkins Illinois. Augustus Tabor of New York, spoke on the subject of intemperance as follows: long oince, the speaker said, there wore three bediea found in the East river at New York.

The coroner was summoned and held injiit. No one knew any. thing concerning their homes or names. No one knew anything whatever in regard to them, save at the time of drowning they were under Influence of liquor. Yet the mind turned once to the thought that somewhere they home, somebody was mourning over the of a nrother, son or Iiiisl and.

Years ago that borne there had been rejoicing because son was born into the world Following in latr years he might have been the support and delight of those same parents as they trusted all to him, their brave, son. the nfind instinctively followed that son through temptation and sin, down to the lowest depths of degradation until be reached drunkard's death. How easy was the path kin to the feet of youth how enticing and charming. One could pass along the street at night, sal the most cheerful-looking, brilliantly-lighted places are those to enter which to enter the gates of death. See tbe vast multitude which is passing and repassing through those doors, going dawn to snre destruction.

Fathers and mothers of Rochester, your sons, perhaps, are gw-elling that multitude, and it behooves you to be up and doing, to stay if possible this tide of destruction. Mr. Tabor having concluded his remarks, Mrs. Elisabeth L. Comstock of Michigan rose her feet and stated that she had been requested to make a few remarks on the subject the distribution of tracts and its influence upon intemperance.

The two ideas of tracts and intemperance were closely connected together, like poLsrjn and its antidote. A tract was a little thing to be sure, but it has often been the means of doing a great deal of good the world. Many years ago a woman alking along a street in England handed a tract to a man in a tinker's shop. The result was the conversion of that man, who was none other than John Banyan, the author of the "Pilgrim's Progress. Another tract was the means of converting John Baxter, who afterwards wrote a book entitled The Saints Best.

This book was read by him who afterwards became the celebrated Dr. Doddridge. A few years after Samuel Wil-bcrforce saw this book written by Dr. Doddridge, and through its instrumentality he was convered to the truth. Leigh Richmond also wrote many tracts.

One of these tracts alone was the means of hopefully converting to the paths of peace and religion more than 38,000 people. This was in England alone, and the tame little work bad also done much good this country, the extent of which could not be estimated. We should jwithhold our hand from doing good at any time, for we could never know what the result might be. The speaker had been engaged, she said, for many years in distributing tracts, furnished her by the Friends in Philadelphia, among pupila in public schools, in saloons, on the railroad, and everywhere where she thought they might do good. It was not pleatant to speak of the work she herself had done, she said, but yet she wished to mention several things which had come un der her observation.

Mrs. Comstock th-z. told several interesting anecdotes connected with her experience snowing cow some remarkable things had been accomplis-ed through the medium of a tract. She then proceeded to make some remarks upon intemperance, which were substantially as follows It has been shown from statistical reports that 60, OUO men and women annually fill drunkards' graves. In the city of Philadelphia alone, where there was the reputation of great morality, compared with other cities, there were 8, 000 saloons and places where liquor could be obtained.

The number of churches was only 400. This fact showed that It was time that the members of church es were actively engaged in using their influence against this fearful state of affaire. All should join in and do their utmost to stay this tide which was sweeping over the land carrying death and destruction wherever it went. attempt should, however, be made to bring evil upon distillers and saloon keepers, but the effort should be to convert them, shut up their places of evil-doing and turn them to the use of some honeet employment. Women mtnt be drafted into this work and lend their powerful influence upon the side of right and humanity.

The speaker said this was one of the woman's rights that she advocated. Hhe was not in favor of the woman's rights movement as it seemed to be carried on at the pres ent time. That appeared to her to be more like woman's wrongs. Mothers must impress the importance of temperance upon their children when young, and in all cases have them sign the temperance nlel. The speaker finished by imploring God's blessing upon this work of good, in endeav oring to dispel the darkness which the great evil of drunkenness had brought upon the land, to let in the light ot the truth and to eave souls from destruction.

Rufus King of Indiana then made a short address, dwelling chiefly upon incidents and reminiscences of army life and showing the extent to which intemperance was the cause of many of the evils of war. He was followed by Mrs. Frances Jenkins of Illinois aud Mrs. Esther Frame of New England, who spoke upon their experiences in their work among saloons, and other matters pertaining to missionary work. William G.

Hubbard of Ohio was then introduced, who spoke for a short time in a very earnest and interesting manner. The substance of his remarks was as follows He had been invited to make some remarks upon extravagance in dress in the connection it had with intemperance, but he wished to confine his remarks directly to the subject in hand. There was one point which the speak era preceding him had overlooked, in seeking for measures to prevent the spread of the rvQ of intemperance. For forty years ever since the great Wasbingtonian movement there had been a great deal of this missionary work done, and no doubt it had doue much good. But yet the evil was constantly growing and some way must be found to mike at its root and stop it etfeetu ally.

This, he claimed, was to be done at the ballot-box. The way ia which the reforjn movement had been carried on up to this ttine bad been like whipping the devil with on. hand and helping him on with the other. This was done by continually electing men to the important offices of the nation who were eot temperance men at heart or were too cowardly and weak to faitufuily execute the laws in relation to the sale of intoxicating Af ji Xh must be changed and good, hon est temperance men must be elected to office. To be sure, to advocate this doctrine would have a tendency to make men unpopular for a time, but still it must be done, for the men who are gradually sinking under this curse were all members of one common family with us, and ws must save them if pcssible at all basara.

The appetit for strung drink is a deep, fascinating one, and men cannot be saved from it by talking and precept, but by removing from their way the opportunity of gratifying it. In order to save a bird when being fascinated by the wily rrpcnt, it is necessary that the latter be killed, and But that the former be coaxed and enticed away. Let the appetite for drink once get fastened upon a man and nothing but the grace of God can ever save him from it. But the young are coming up, ho have appetites yet to form, and these would surely be saved by this project. The serpent who is ready to entice the young men of the land into the gates of hell must be killed, and then let the judges and other oiHoers appointed to office be God-fearing men who will execute tbe laws in different maa-nadiLi that in which thcr are at present lart the the act city said the at the If the red If I ajnr-f)d Hiyn -Frank Van ra.

There was a regular meeting of the council evening, the president. Aid. Aldridga, in chair. Aid Herzberger presented the bill of the Rochester printing company contrasted under following circumstances By act of May 30th. 1S73, entitled "An to amend the several acts relating to the of Rochester, tbe oliiciaJ printing was niven to tbe two daily papers having the largest circulation, and requiring certain proof to be made of such circulation.

On the 81st of December last, pursuant to that act, paid company established their claim, making due proof and filing the same with the common council. Undf-r that act, and in the proof so made, company have published the proceed-inpt, as will be seen by the bill. In the alienee of any special contract as to price, items contained therein have been charged tbe usual advertising rates, the same as charged to all business firms. N. P.

Poto Soc'y Rochester Printing Co. Aid. Herzberger said the board could sea bill was large, and in view of it the council ought not to go on in this loose kind of way, A contract should be made at once. there were two papers having the largest circulation, the council ought to give them contract, according to law. The chair stated that it would be proper to refer tbe bill to the finance committee.

Akl. Stern suggested that the bill be refer to the contingent expense committee to make inquiry and report. Aid. Rogers asked that the inquiry be ax- tended to finding what authority the Democrat had for publishing the proceedings. It was not for its owners to decide who should publish the proceedings.

That matter rested with the board. Aid. WhitmoreTadvocated a reference to the law committee. Aid. Howard moved that a committee be appointed to negotiate with the Rochester printing company in order to effect a reduction of their bill.

Aid. rinker wanted to know if there was not some limit to the expenditure of the council in this direction. Aid. Whitmore favored a reference to the law committee. If they were obliged to give the publishing to the paper having the larg est circulation it was time that the subject was taken in hand.

Aid. Hereberger reminded the council that tbe board of public works had sent in a com municstion on this matter, and that an alderman jumped up and persuaded the members to pay no attention to the sub ject. Aid. GrifTen said he was the man to move its reference back to the commission, be cause twenty-eight men were as able to judge of its expediency as five and needed no advice from the latter. he understood the law, the council was directed to designate two paoers at its first regular meeting.

This had not been done, and the question was, could board after wards be compelled to audit a bill which smacked so strongly of commissions as did this one, and contracted as it was without authority. Aid. Whitmore's amendment, to refer to the law committee, with directions to see what contracts'should be made for the cur rent year, prevailed, and the r. dropped for the tlttUi being. Aid.

Aid. Kelly also sent up the report of the chief engineer certifying to the work above enumerated. The alderman further stated that in conversation with President Whitney, the latter remarked that the conditions had been complied with substantially, and that the prospect was favorable for an early com pletion of the line, tie tnen presented a resolution for the exchange of mortgage bonds of the company for city bonds in the sum of 1 100,000. Alderman Brink er asked If the grading of th route had been completed. He was an swered in the affirmative by Aid.

Kelly, and the latter 8 resolution was then adopted, all aves. Aid Whitmore sent up a communication from the city surveyor asking for the ap pointment of an assistant. Referred. Aid. Cow lee presented the estimate of the special committee on Front street publio building.

Aid Uorton moved that the bill lie on the table till the walls could be examined. Lost. Aid. Cow lea explained that he respected Aid. Gorton's object.

The south wall was warped, and the architect was prepared to take it down. The architect, Mr. Thomas, Was heard. He held the south wall was tne only one damaged, and agreed that this ought to be taken down. In reply to a question from Aid.

Rogers, the architect stated that the amount already granted the contractor and the amount now proposed to grant 15, 000 made the sum II 4, 000. Aid. Rogers This is about one -third of the whole contract price, and more than we ought to give on what has as yet been done. Akl. Kelly could not fcoe why the council should not give a little money to the con- eractor on this building, since he had himself been hounded for payment ot galvanised iron cornices on the Free academy before the foundations of the structure ware laid.

Mr. Thomas rose again to state his esti mates were correct, although questioned by Aid. Rogers. Aid. Gorton I contend that neither the second nor third wall is Aid.

Cowles held tnat tne building was already half-finished, and the board was allowed to pay the contractor eighty per cent, of the whole, tutu before the completion of the buiWiiig. Aid. Pvogen didn't question Mr. Thomas's estimate that is he believed the latter thought himself right but he was unwilling to pay over one-third of the contract price at thu stage of the building. Aid.

telern suggested that the contractor be required to give a bond that he would take down the south wall, as a condition precedent to receiving further pay. Aid. Hercberger blamed the council for going at the work in the hear of the winter. The contractor was not at fault ia the mat- tar. He wished the whole building had given out Instead of bat part of i the city would have been gainer in the end.

Aid. Gorton's amendment to make the sum but one-half of the amount eallod for by the resolution was lost ayes 6 nays 33. The reeutution to pay the contractor $5, 300 was adopted aver S3, nays 3. Aid. Stern presented the finance budget which was read and adopted.

Aid. Bower sent up the report of the law committee is relation to the chum ot Cork CauklweiL. for damage against the ty in the sum of 7S. 00. That amount was voted to the complainants.
