PITTSBURGH GAZETTE: FRIDAY, MAY 14, 1869. 4. BRIEF TELEGRAMS. It is said that Minister Morris is to be from Constantinople, upon the JTrttstajsji fetfe PUBLISHED DAILY, BT PNN1MAN, REED Proprietors and ability, I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true and faithful allegiance to the same; that I have taken this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the dutits of the office on which I am about to enter, so help me The above oath must also be taken by all city and county officers, before enter are tighter than is comfortable for our financiers and it costs all of us, the people, more than we would wish, for the expense of our daily living. There are quite too many Republicans hungering and thirsting after office, and the Democrats exhibit a very indecorous degree of spiteful chagrin because they can get no offices at all.

If the political, financial and social situation be 'bad, it is well to reflect that it might be far worse than it is, and that the people are not without some substantial consolations in their unpleasant estate. For example, there is no doubt that the wheat harvest of 18G0, upon this North American continent, which has already opened in the States of the Gulf, and is steadily marching Northward, so that another sixty days will complete it in the farthest Northwest gives all promise of being the most bountiful harvest, and of the most perfect grain, that the continent has ever known. From every quarter of the land comes one Amusing. Yesterday morning an officer, while conducting a negro woman to jail who had been attending the Mayor's Morning Court, was thrown into a mortar bed. He started from the watch house with his prisoner, who walked along quietly and peaceably until she arrived opposite a mortar bed on Smithfleld street, when she seized hold of the officer and threw him fl an his back in the mortar bod.

The affair created quite a laugh, and the officer not relishing the amusement, as it was all at his expense, attempted to retaliate by throwing his prisoner in the bed he had just emerged from. She was not inclined to lie in that bed; being much larger than the officer, gave him a severe body beating, after which she accompanied him quietly to the jail. ashingtou Items. Gov. Curtin will leave on the 16th of une for St.

Petersburg. Gen. Clay has written that he will remain until Curtin arrives. Several New York politicians are stating positively that Secretary Seward has bought an interest in an evening paper there, and will soon assume its political that, hfi has identified himself with Russian interests to a degree offen-sive to the Porte. His course in securing petitions for his retention in the ofhee, from the Greek merchants of Stamboul, has also iriven umbrage at Washington.

Secretary Fish don't like Greek gifls. Scandalous statements are current of the most disgraceful conduct of certain oflicers of the army in Alaska. The completion of the Pacific railway ought to bring the most distant of the public servants on that coast within the close supervision of their superiors at Washington. The current charges are specific, and involve the grossest misconduct. We do not think the government can ignore them.

mm mim. Dr. C. C. Beatty, of Steubenville, has presented to the Union Cemetery, of that ty, forty-five acres of land adjoining the present cemetery grounds.

This handsome gift will be followed by a further promised donation of $4,000. With the aid of a small additional subscription from other citizens, this munificent donation will result in a conspicuous improvement of that interesting portion of the city. We would suggest to the Committees having in charge the arrangements for Decoration day, that they should appoint Committees of ladies to co-operate with them, thus availing themselves of the advantages of female taste, and publicly acknowledging the risht of that sex to a full share in rendering tribute to those whose wants, when alive, they so faithfully ministered to. We may state in this connection, that in Cincinnati a Committee of more than two 'hundred ladies has been appointed, to assist in the arrangements for decorating the graves in the one cemetery of Spring Grove. Cumberland, elects a Republican Mayor by 94 majority over Roman, the popular and wealthy Democratic candidate.

The city gave 297 majority for Seymour and Blatr. The Kepublicans elected one-third of the Council. The people are weary of an expensive and Inefficient Democratic rule. Westminister. in the same State, which gave Seymour 134 majority, also elected a Republican Mayor, and a four-fifths Republican council, last week.

Our friends are quite right in regarding these "straws" as significantly encouraging for the future of Maryland. The XVth Article will bring out the State all right. i The Democratic members of the Douse of Representatives of Indiana have again tied before the XVth Amendment, and resigned their positions rather than squarely meet the issue. In the Senate the same game was attempted, but a quorum was kept with bolted doors and 'the measure passed by a triumphant vote. The moral cowardice of the bolters, their lack of backbone, and inexpressible littleness of spirit, mike them conspicuous objects for pity rather than scorn.

They will accomplish nothing by their trickery, for without Indiana enough States will ratify the amendment to make it the law of the land. mm -a From New York, by Pittsburgh, Chicago and Omaha, to San Francisco, the distance is stated at 3,160 miles. The route from Chicago west is common to several competing trunk-lines, but thence eastward to New York, the Pittsburgh route is the shortest by sixty-one miles. John Jay Phelps, one of the most prominent citizens oi -ew lura. cn-v died on Wednesday.

The first shipment of goods to San Francisco by the Pacific railroad from t-uiiMeiphia was made Wednesday. The Georgia railroad convention has instructed the Directors to extend the Athens branch to Knoxville, so as to meet the road from Cincinnati. Isaac Hirsh, a citizen of Itondout, was robbed of 81.750 in greenbacks, on Wednesday, at the railroad station in Poughkeepsie, New York. The St. Louis and Illinois Bridge Company commenced operations on the Illinois smt) oi tne river on vveanesaay.

Boring began which will be continued until rock is reached upon which to lay tne iounaation oi tne shore abutment. S. C. Goodwin, of the firm of Goodwin druggists, Boston, was found dead on the sidewalk of Amity street, New York, Wednesday evening. His death is supposed to have resulted from apo plexy.

Marshal Barlow searched the s' earner Quaker City, at New York, yes terday, but nothing of a contraband na ture was found. She is still closely watched by the revenue cutter McCul- loch. 'Ihe Quaker City was purchased by an Knglish merchant for the Rio Janeiro trade, but the transformation of a portion of her hold into what resem bles a magazine keeps suspicion alive as to her destination. The flouring mill and saw mill attached, about thirty miles west of St. Iouis, belonging to F.

Eickerman, were entirely destroyed by tire Wednesday night.

The American Bible Society held its 53d anniversary at New York, on Mon day. I he annual reports show the re ceipts $731,700. Total amount of books printed during the year in the Bible House in foreign lands 000; entire circulation 1,386,061. Vol umes ot books sold gratu-itous distributions and appropriations amount in value to $181,881, of which 572,712 were for foreign lands. The restoration of the riibie Society in the Southern States has been accomplished.

The resupply of the whole country with bibles has been conducted with success. During the past three years 1,800.000 families were visited, and 175,000 bibles distributed. Important plans are on foot for enlarging the work of the Society at home and abroad. The report shows a year of unusual activity and prosperity for the Society. Geo.

H. Stuart, in moving that the reports be printed, gave an account of the presentation of a copy of the Bibla to General Grant, on which occasion the latter called his family around, and declared the book should be handed down as an heir loom. Resolutions were adopted urging the distribution of the Bible in Spain, Mexico and other Catholic countries, declaring the influence of Christianity on civilization is explicable only by the fact that the Bible is a divine revelation, and alluding to the good effect likely to spring from the translation of the Scriptures iD Chinese. At a business meeting the following managers were eleeted: Richard T. Haines, James Donaldson, N.

Pittsbukoii Theatre. The "Forty Thieves" is drawing large houses at the Pittsburgh Theatre. The piece is a spec-taclar burlesque of a highly deserving character, and is put upou the stage entirely regardless of expense.

Ole Bull. Many of our readers who enjoy good music will be gratified to learn that the world renowned and celebrated violinist, Ole Bull, assisted by Miss Barton, Mr. McDonald and Mr. Martens, will give two grand concerts at the Academy of Music, on the 18th and instant. The sale of seats will commence Friday, May 14th, at ten o'clock, at Mellor's music store.

The Academy was again crowded by a very large, enthusiastic audience last evening, to witness the fourth representation of the "Renegade of the Potomac," and the applause with which it was received indicated, unmistakably, that the efforts of the performers were properly appreciated. That all may Lave an opportunity to see this thrilling, national drama, it has been concluded to run it a portion of next week, while the matinee on Saturday afternoon has alvi been determined upon. The soldiers orphans from the Home on Bluff street have been invited and will be there. Parents who object to their children being out at nights will, by this arrangement, have a good opportunity togratify them, which we hope and expect to see them improve. On this occasion there should not be a seat unoccupied.

A Heavy Fall. Maurice Mac-s, recently employed at the Grain Elevator, was drinking yesterday, and last night went into the building to sleep and locked the door on the inside. A few moments later the night watchman came around and hearing a noise in the building tried the doon but could not get it open. He then went to a window at the back part of the building through which he effected an entrance, when he discovered a man in one of the hoppers. He called an officer, and with the aid of an Iron hook they fished him out.

It appears Mack had been asleep, and waiting up about twelve o'clock felt cold and started to go to the engine house, when he fell into the hopper, which fortunately was partially filled with grain. As It was, however, he fell over fifteen feet. Maurice was taken in custody by the officer, and conveyed to the lock-up. Fashionable Gossip. It is stated in fashionable circles that an accomplished lady of this city, the widow of a once well known manufacturer, is shortly to be led to the altar as a bride, by a French nobleman of high caste in his native country.

The lady, who is very wealthy, spent a long time with her family in Paris, where her lover was found and ac-ceoted. The titled suitor is now iu our city, and the wedding will shortly be celebrated in a befitting style. While we think it an occasion for international jealousy that a foreigner should carry away to his native clime au esteemed member of local society, still we are happy to say the lady's daughter, an accomplished and beautiful belle, has accepted a worthy Pittsburgh gentleman as her partner for life, and that the double wedding of matron and maiden may shortly be anticipated.

"Set a rogue to catch a rogue" and the chances are that the end will be fully ac complished. The man who has blackened his own soul with crime has better knowledge of that side of humanity engaged in nefarious callings.

He has made a study himself of the science of law evasion and knows full well how best the agents of Justice can be foiled and frustrated. He has knowledge of the haunts of criminals, their plans of action, and taking advantage of that spirit of honor which is supposed to hold thieves in harmony, can ingratiate himself into their good graces, learn their schemes, entangle them in their own meshes, and, when all is ready, betray them to the authorities and pocket the reward of his treachery. In isolated cases the employment of a thief to Catch a thief is a wise and shrewd thing on the part of the Government, but when whole organized bands of rogues and rascals are clothed with authority to take care of the interests of Justice, there is much fear that the grossest abuses will follow the power delegated to them, and that the very system under which they act will be made a great cloak under which they can fatten and grow rich from their own dishonesty and crime-It is within the recollection of many of our readers, that, during the coin period of our country, a gang of authorized detectivesthieves elevated from their proper rank into officers of the United States, suddenly amassed wealth by levyinp black mail on honest men whom they had seduced into handling bogus moneys made and furnished by the detectiyes, and then seized upon as evidence of guilt by other members of the ring. The unfortunate victim had no resource but to pay large amounts to hush the matter or go into court to battle against direct and damning testimony, gathered by the rogues who had set the trap and led him step by step from an honest business into dishonest practices. How many men were cast into prison cells by dishonest detective bureaus, the members of which deliberately plotted against their purses and liberty, we do not know, but the number was large.

The Secret Service Department of the Government Las not been without experience in the detective business, and we are glad to note the recommendation of the Solicitor of the Treasury Department for a thorough reform in this direction. He wisely suggt Bts that the business of discovering the violators of law should be entrusted to honest men and not to thieves and scoundrels, as has in large measure been the practice. Such reform will be hailed with unmeasured delight by all who have watched the progress of the detective system in th'13 country. Even if a lewer number of rogues be brought to justice than heretofore, the Government can feel that its interests are not in the hands of dishonest men who care more for personal aggrandizement than for the bringing to punishment of offenders. Nine ouf of every ten of the so-called detectives in the country, will not hesitate to share in the plunder and permit the robber to escape; few if any are too honest to commit crime, and none are actuated by a conscientious desire to put an end to transgressions against the law.

The whole system is rotten and demoralizing, and we hope the Treasury will abandon it, and that the good example thus set will be generally followed by Slate and Municipal Governments, lor if penitentiaries received all deserving a place within their walls there would be few secret detectives prowling at large in search of prey and victims. Steel Rails. We find the following in our exchanges, as the expression of the President of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad, concerning steel rails "The first steel rail imported has already worn out sixteen iron rails, and we have not now any reason that the latter invoices are of an inferior quality. But there is great fear on my part that railroad companies will themselves tempt steel-makers to send a poor article by buying the cheapest first cost only considered as they did with the iron masters. It rests with railroad men to keep steel rails good by buying no poor ones.

"We try steel with the chisel for hardness, with the trip-hammer for toughness, and for strength with the 2-240 pound drop fifteen feet, the rail resting on supporters three feet apart. Rigid inspection, make no holes, or, at all events, no punched holes, in the rails. Punching is bad enough for iron, but death to steel. "We, on Friday last, dropped out 2-240 pound 'trip' twenty feet upon a steel rail resting on supports three feet apart. The rail was merely bent.

I have in my office a steel rail twisted cold, into a regular spiral of one entire turn to two feet in length, without crack or flaw. mm Extensive preparations are being made for the Commercial Convention at Memphis on the 18th inst. All steamboats and railroads will pass delegates free and visitors at half-fare. A large number of rooms at the principal hotels have already been secured. uniform story: the breadth of ground sown is greater, and the appearance of the fast maturing crop is more flattering than ever yet Wefore gladdened the farmers' eyes.

In quantity and quality, this year's wheat will be altogether unprecedented. Seven weeks from to-day will see the whole crop in stack or shock, as far north as the south line of Wisconsin, and less than one additional month will usher in the "harvest home" of the remotest Northern State. We can bear all other plagues, when bread is plenty and cheap. And that good time is coming nearer and nearer. With cheaper bread, every other sort of food will be cheaper too, and so the great wheat-harvest ot 1809 will usher in a pe riod of more plenteous abundance than the country enjoyed for the ten years past.

Herein, too, we shall have the end for much of the embarrasments under which the business of the country-has so long suffered. For the wealth, thus yielded by the earth to the labors of the husbandman, is a solid creation which shall impart the long-needed vitality to an impaired and languishing trade. It will afford the only reliable basis for a prosperous industry, and will bless al classes and conditions of the people, whether producers or consumers, in the final restoration to the land of a healthier and sounder condition of all its material and social interests. Wages and work will be the easier adjusted to each other, the poor can once more live as well as the rich, social problems which have annoyed us of late years will finally disappear, and with them all complaints of "hard times," in the bounteous crops of 'CD which this great wheat harvest i3 just heralding in. Will these prove false prophecies THE ISSUES IN VIKGINIA.

The election to be orderel in Virginia will turn, in effect, altogether upon the adoption or rejection of the following clauses in the new Constitution. These are the only sections to be submitted to separate votes. The attempt to secure distinct action, upon another clause relating to the organization of townships and counties, has not been approved by the President. The only separate votes and the only contest will be on the two sections below, the Constitution, with or without them, being certain of a general approval: The lollowing is the fourth clause) of the first sectiouof the third article, which covers the disfranchisement: Kvery person who has been a Senator or Representative in Cougres.s, or elector of President or Vice President, or ho held any otiiee civil or military under the United Htat.es, or under any (State, who, having previously taken an oath as a member of Congress or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of a State Legislature, or as an executive or judicial ollicer of any State, shall engaged in insurrection i.r rebel iiou agaitist the same, or given aid or cum-lort to the enemy thtreof. 'i bis clause shall include the following ollioers: Governor, liieutenant Sacretary of State, Auditor of Public Accounts, Second Auditor, Register of the Public Laud Office, State Treasurer, Attorney-General, Sheriffs, Sergeant of a city or town, Commissioner of the Revenue, County Surveyor, Constables, Overseers of the Poor, Commissioner of the Board of Public Works, Judges of the Supreme Court, Judges of the Circuit Court, udge of the Court of Hustiugs, Justices of tue County Courts, Mayor, Rboorder, Alderman, Counciluiau of a city or town, Coroners, Executors, Inspectors of Tobacco and Flour, and Clerks of the Supreme, District, Circuit and County Courts, and of the Court of Hustings, and Attorneys for the Commonwealth, provided that the Legislature may, by a vote of three-tilths of both Houses, remove the disabilities incurred by this clause from any person included therein by a separate vote on each case." The test oath feature, which is the seventh section of the third article, is as follows: "In addition to the foregoing oath of otflce, the Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, members of the General Assembly, Secretary of State, Auditor of Public Accounts, State Treasurer, Attorney General, and all persons elected to any Convention to frame a Constitution for this State, or to amend or revise this Constitution in any manner, nnd Mayor or Council of any city or town, shall, before they enter on the duties of their respective offices, take and subscribe the following oath or affirmation, providing the disabilities therein contained may be individually removed by a three-fifths vote of the General Assembly: 'I, do solemnly swear, or affirm, that I have never voluntarily borne arms against the United States sinne I have been a cit-izon thereof; that I have voluntarily given no aid, countenance, counsel or encouragement to persons in armed hostility thereto; that 1 have never sought or accepted, nor attempted to exercise the functions of any office whatever under any authority or pretended authority in hostility to the United States: that I have not yielded a voluntary support to any pretended Government, authority, power or Constitution within the United States hostile or inimical thereto.

And I do further swear, or affirm, that to the best of my knowledge management. I he President has decided to appoint Hon. Ben. Wade one of the Government Directors of the Union Pacific Railroad. The present indications are that Henrv Pierce, of Boston, will be appointed Min ister to the Sandwich Islands.

A man named Hutchison, of Arkansas, was nominated, but not confirmed at the last session of the Senate. The State Department further consideration, thinks the appointment was not a very good one. hence the new selection. The members of the Indian ring are in the greatest excitement over the Indian military appointments. The censure of the Administration is loud and deep, and the assignment of the oflicers is regarded with the severest reprehension.

The President, however, appears to be totally unmoved by the remonstrances and representations made to him on the subject, and will not be driven from his course of inaugurating a sweeping reform in this branch of the service by any amount of political wire-pulling or manceuvering. The whole Indian business has, he says, been so mismanaged that any change will be for the better. Information received here to-day, by the Government, from sources which leave little room for doubt, shows that the Cuban insurgents are not making any headway, that the Spanish army will in a very 6hort time put an end to the insurrection. and that nothing remains of the Cuban forces but detached parties acting as guer rillas. This is not the Spanish side of the story, but the statement of an agent of our Government in Cuba, who has been a close observer of affairs there.

It is proper to say, however, that the Cuban partizans in this city deny the reports that the insurgents are exhausted, and assert that the agent has informed himself only on one side of the question, and that he knows nothing of the resources of the other. -A dispatch, dated Wednesday, from Sacramento announces the arrival in that city of Springfield, cars, which were the first to cross the continent. mmm mm THE REASON WHY Dr. Kevser's Blood Searcher is the best. It is computed that a man's system undergoes three times a year, that is every four months, a radical and thorough change, that is.

that at the end of that time nothinjr remains in the system of the material of which it was composed before that time. The eliminating organs carry out the worn-out and used-op material, and new matter Is made to take its place and carry on the workings of the human organism The costof lour months treatment in this way would not at the outside be more than ten dollars, and frequently the functions of life have an activity and vigor mparted sufficient to renew them by the use of one bottle, costing only one dollar.

In this connection, a letter dated "Pittsburgh, May 3d, '69," to a gentleman of St. Louis, puts the following strong point: Th question is not so much the capacity of boats to tow, where they have the natural river free, as it is the proper quantity they should take for the special purpose of running between bridge piers. It Is my opinion tnat, with a few more bridges, the amount of coal allowable for a boat to tow safely, will be regulated by the bridges altogether.

The amount to be taken from Puuburgh to below the Steubenville bridge is now regulated, for larger boats, by that bridge. The bridges appear to reduce the safe. carrying capacity by fully a half. Enough, probably, of a reduction in case of a number of bridges to so reduce profits as to eventually destroy the business. T.
