Trouble in PittsburE.

The mayor and councils are at loggerheads-
the latter assuming the appointing power, and
the former refusing the aid of officers of police
not of his own selecting. On Tuesday night the
police committee of the city council and the new
night-watch appointed by them, accompanied by
a large crowd, went in body to the mayors Of
fee, and demanded immediate possession of the
watch-house This being refused, they then broke
open the doors of the watch-house and John Scott,
one of the police committee, declared his inten-
ton to shoot down the first man who should offer
any resistance. After having gained possession
Of the watch house, attempt wasm made to obtain
the books, but the iron safe resisted oil the efforts
that were made to break it open by the official
mob The roll of the new watchmen was then
called, who Immediately went on duty, and the
crowd dispersed. Mayor Guthrie was not present
at the time, having been sick for several days
past. The Migrants and night offenders had a
hearing next morning before Alderman Steel, who
will probably hereafter exercise this portion of
the mayors functions.
These Pittsburgers are a nice set of fellows.

A LADY Preacher.

The Boston "Freeman's Journal speaks Of
Miss Antoinette L. Brown, whom it describes as
"strong- minded" young lady, recently grad
uated from the Oberlin theological school, in
Ohio, and says "Last Sunday afternoon she
mounted the rostrum usually occupied by Theo-
dore Parker, at the Melodeon, and discoursed Oh
st. Pauls doctrine that women should keep 81.
lence in the churches. The darling preacher is
apparently twenty-one years of age. She is
slender and genteel in form, and pretty in fea-
ture, with a fine expressive face. She wore glossy
black hair, neatly arrayed, close-ftting, high
necked dress that became her vastly, and alto
gether she made favorable impression upon the
audience by her modest department and her
pretty face, as by her chaste language and logi-
cal discourse"
Some of the papers speak Of this lady very
coarsely-but only the coaraer papers, however.
We are much in favor of womans adjoining, as
she does, the domestic home; but we are not
right sure that one who is good writer or good
speaker should put her light under bushel. We
would have her exercise her talents for the ben
eft Of the world

interest.


A writer in the Baltimore Sun" gives the
following rule for calculating interest Tor any
number of days at 6 per cent per annum:
divide the number of days by o. ana multiply
the dollars b,y the dividend the result Is the IN
terest in decimals; cut off the right hand inquire
and Won have it in dollars and cents. Thus !:
What il the interest on 800 for q daysg p di-
yided by s is 81 100 multiplied by 81 is $50
or az cents. Again, what is the interest ca
Sa7s for 90 days? SO divided by 8 is lbA; 35s
multiplied by l54 is $3.50, or 1886 $40"
We can give simpler mode: Multiply tn
amount of money By the Number Of days, and The,
divids by co. and you haze the an cents Thus
What is the interest of 800 for 40 days Mt G
per cent? 100 multiplied by 40 gives 1000,
and this divided by go gives 66s.
The rule assumes the year to contain but 800
days, (Which is common anel 80 days, or of the
year, represents one per cent. 1t is therefore
plain that any number of days divided by 60 will
give the number of cents each dollar should
bring. Whether the division be p erformed before
or after the multiplication the eff eet is the same.
The fewer operations, however, the better; and
hence the latter mode is preferred.

A Telegraph Line 10 the pac,ne.

II enry O'Reilly, of telegraphic celebrity the
Pm ladelphia " Sun" remarks, is one of the prom
I'M snt men of the age; and over seven thousand
N iles of telegraph constructed under his super
ision are a standing monument of his enterprise
, and energy He is now earnestly engaged in pro-
noting the project Of extending the telegraph
westward to the Pacific, and is sanguine of being
able to have it in operation to San Francisco
within eighteen months, provided Congress shall
make q favorable response to his memorial asking
for the right of way through the wilderness, and
protection to his wires. He seeks no pecuniary
aid, but simply proposes to supersede the pres
ent system of forts, at long distances, with
large garrisons, by establishing stockades twenty
miles apart each Of twenty dragons He pro-
poses that two or three soldiers shall ride daily
each way from each stockade, SO rs to transport
a daily express letter mail across the continent,
while at the same time protecting and comforting
emigrants and settlers along the public domain,
and thus incidentally furnishing oil the protection
which the telegraph will require Seemingly,
this is very ingenious and practicable mode of
securing great national object, with compare
lively small expense. The distance between
Missouri and San Francisco is about $500
miles The mail service, conducted with military
precision, therefrom, ought to be accomplished in
from twelve to fourteen days.

Endurance.

New Orleans papers state that Captain Temp
kins has received in that city 900 for walking 60
consecutive hours without sleep or rest. The
trial was instituted by the medical faculty "to
test the full extent of natures endurance )"
though this we of course do not believe. The
faculty stand in need of no such test. A reliable
friend of ours has assured us that he once knew
woman who labored in the midst of her sick
family without sleeping from Sunday morning
until Wednesday morning, and who did not re-
ceiye $4,000 for her privations nor do we believe
the medical faculty ever even recorded the extent
of her endurance.

A Bit or q Row.

An alarm of fire at o'clock last evening SO,
going the somewhat noisy bell Of the Persey, and
soon brought out /" the machines" As there was
no fire, but good deal of rain, these soon went
home again. The Union reel, from the First
Ward, however, was less fortunate. On its way
up the Avenue, manned by few boys" as an
eyewitness has informed us, 1t encountered some
of the coveys "vich runs With the Franklin =
miniature row ensued, and ended with the cut
ting up of the Union hose, and "chucking" the
reel into the canal at the foot Of 18th street.
These things used to fret us; but we have got
bravely over that. We regard them now as sim
ply ridiculous Riots and the destruction of the
city property-sometimes even murder-and all
by few dozen whippersnappers whom any citi-
zen would contract to keep quiet at q couple OF
thousand dollars year! 1t is ludicrous. A fire
department and insurance concern should be one
and the same thing; and its officers and agents
should have official authority over all persons in
times of fires, and riots, and scandalous demon
strations
