TJie New Police System Now that the several station houses have been fitted nnand snnnlipil With bedsteads and bedding, the new system of i iic jiuuc- wm ceiuinence ai six o'clock this morning. The upper part of each station house, formerly ccupied by the old police corps, has been cleared or all obstructions in the way of unseemly partitions, heavy doors, and the entire space laid off into a single apartment. In the eastern station 30 beds have been provided; in the central station 50 beds; in the western 30 beds and the same number in the southern, making a total of 140. These are to be used by those divisions of men who have to go on and off duty during the night. The bedsteads are of iron, very strong and substantial, and were manufactured by Messrs.

Newsham Co. The beds and bedding were furnished by Mr. Louis Muller. They consist of straw matresses, sheets and heavy blankets, and will, no doubt, prove very comfortable. The rooms are well ventilated, some of them having windows on four sides, which will prove very agreeable during the summer season.

The new system possesses three very important advantages over the old, which are woi thy of enumeration. All the force, consisting of 400 men, (exclusive of detectives,) are subjected to the constant surveillance of the sergeants and lieutenatns. This was not the case with the former police. They were 66 in number, went on duty at 8 or 9 o'clock in the morning and went off at 8 o'clk in the evening. They had no superior officer to look after them, and the consequence was that it was very difficult to tell whether they really discharged their duty or not Here, then, is a great improvement.

Previously in the interregnum between the hours of service of the night wateh-and day police there were no officers on duty at all say from 5 or 6 in the morning until 9, and from until 9 o'clock at night. The new system requires the roll to be called six times in every twenty-four hours, and does not allow a single man to retire from his beat until the relief man appears to take his place. Another improvement consists in the fact that in cases of emergency, which very frequently occur, the entire force will be in service; formerly the night watch, consisting of nearly 300 men, did nothing at all between the hours of 5 in the morninj and 8 in the evening. The entire force on duty now in the day time Ts 100 men, five to eaGh ward; whereas before it was but 66. Again: the men are not to be stationary, but rotatory, as the mayor styles it.

"Push along, keep moving," is to be the motto, so as to pre vent corner lounging and loafing, and to the end that each man may always be going round on his beat. According to the present system each man will have sixteen hours of relief every three days oi uue iiiuc, iioiwiiusranuing rne wnoie iorce 13 divided into three divisions and the respective period of service as follows: 6 o'clock A.Jtf. to 12, (noon;) 12 to 6 P. 6 to 10 P. and 10 P.

M. to 6 A. M. Doubtless the inauguration of the new system, so entirely different from the old one, will be attended with some inconvenience, but in the end it will and must work well the experience of the cities of London and New York giving such assurance. The Mechanics' Exchange.

Conventions, exchanges, boards of trade, chambers of commerce, and various oiher associations, practically express the sentiment of business men upon the-importance of personal interviews and intercommunication cf thought. The mechanic and the manufacturer find the same course of advantage to them. The Mechanics' Exchange, in the Sun Iron Building, seems the desideratum of me chanics, manufacturers and business men here. The members of the Exchange meet between 10 o'clock A. M.

and 1 P.M. A fine large room, in a central locality, is opened and furnished with all the necessary appliances for the purpose intended, seats, desks, stationery, maps, register of business men, periodicals, business directories, -files of papers from all parts of the country, letter boxes of the members inscribed with their names and places of busiress, if they have and other. The Exchange is, however, the only place of business of many, and answers this purpose bet ter tnan an omee witn a nign rent. Here tney receive communications, meet the members between 11 o'clock A. M.

aud 1 P. and models of inventions are received and introduced to the community, negotiate their several contracts, ana transact an tneir business. Tne ojneers are -there at all times to give any necessary information to members, or strangers respecting any branch of business. Indeed, there is no place in the country better conducted or more conducive to the advantage of the industrial interests. The citizens may well be proud of it, and the invitation is extended to strangers to visit it.

We assure them that no place in the city can afford them a tithe of the information that can be gain ed here in its proper department. It behooves business men to render it'a hearty support. Pat A JVtw Establishment. Recently a three-story brick building fronting thirty feet on Swart stieet and running back seventy-eight feet, binding on Jones' ha3 been erected and occupied by two enterprising mechanics. The lower floor is the workshop of Mr.

George W. Hardes- ty, brass founder, kc. He has now on hand, be sides otner worv, a new nose reel, bunaing- ior the Independent Fire Company. It is to beXmilt light.of iron highly polished and silver mounted. Attached to it will be something new, being an improved spool-holder.

An iron ratchet will be used in place of the leather strap. The upper stories are used by Mr. C. Ohlaber as a general pattern-making shop and for other purposes, lie now nas in nana tne trncxana adders of the Mount Vernon Hook and Ladder Company. This is undergoing a general repair, repainting, Mr.

Ohlaber is "constructing a model of Bi llman's patent railroad bridge, designed to go to Rio de Janeiro, South America. He has also just made the patterns for a lighthouse at Charleston, S. the castings for which are to be done by Messrs. Hayward Bartlett. He is also maKing patterns ior castings ior tne new custom house at Charleston, S.

C-, to be made by Messrs. Hayward Bartlett. Patterns are also in course of preparation for Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, D. C. Mr.

Ohlaber's establishment is the only one in the city especially devoted to this character of work. He is now making patterns and models to be used at the i'atent Office at Washington. The work in the entire establishment is moved by a steam engine of eight horse power. Good Haul of Fish. esterday morning there was brought up and exhibited in Centre Fish Market" a lot of "rock fish" such as are rarely seen They were caught in uhester river, on batuiday, by Mr.

Michael Kann ana lienry Galloway, and were received and disposed of here by Henley Co. Technically, they numbered one thousand strings some of them would weigh each seventy "pounds. They were soon packed up in ice and the interior village, including Philadelphia, will to-day be luxuriating on Baltimore fish. The lot was a most magnificent one. Talking of fish, we may mention that on last market day, at Mrs.

Walker's stand, we noticed something' which may be regarded as a curiosity in this market; a large white salmon, a bunch of sangua pickerel, ad a bunch of pearl, sent on from Zanesville, Ohio. They were not on sale, but were looked upon as strangers in this region. Outrageous Assault. On Sunday evening last, as two young men, John Gibson and another named Shaw, who reside on New Church street, were on tneir way to church they were attacnea as they passed down Fayette street, by two desperadoes who emerged from Crooked lane. Shaw was knocked down by one of the villains and beaten about the face and head until he was quite blinded.

His companion, Gibson, endeavored to protect him from his assailant, when the other drew a pistol and fired upon him, (Gibson,) the ball entering the left shoulder, and as yet the efforts of Dr. S. K. Owings, the pnysician cauea to their aid, have been unsuccessful in extracting it. They were both so much injured as to require aid in reaching their homes, to which they in all probability will be confined for some time.

The villainous assailants are known, and it is to be hoped they may be brought to justice. Fire. Last night, a little before nine o'clock, an alarm of fire was given, which was found to proceed from the burning of a carpenter shop on Central avenue, east side, a short distance north of Baltimore street. The building was owned by Mr. James Hooper, and was occupied by Mr.

James M. Young, house carpenter, in tne lower part, and by Messrs. Weaver, painters, in the upper part. Mr. Park also did work in a portion or the building, making the "knuckle" washing machines.

Everything in the bailding was lst the esti mate of damage we could not learn, but we understand there was no insurance. An adjoining house, occupied by Mr. Barrett, was somewhat damaged by the fire, but the in terior, pernaps, worse Dywaier.

The Great Catastrophe. The impression that the world is to be at an end on the 13th of Jure, is so prevalent in Galliciathat the peasants are becoming somewhat difficult to manage.

According to a Polish correspondent of the Ost Deutsche Post, the lower classes ex press themselves as follows: "No one mw troubles himself about the world and its inhabitants. A man can go where he pleases, as it is now all the same whether he is here or in America."
