A Rich Scene.

Yesterday constable Miller went with a
search-warrant to look for some stolen goods.
After some examination they were fonnd in
the possession of bouncing servant girl. The
property consisted principally of articles of
dress among which was fine worked collar.
This the officer endeavored to get in his hands
but the girl put it in her mouth and shut
down on it." The constable determined not
to be foiled in this way, run his finger in the
girls mouth in order to pull out the collar,
when she opened, and taking his finger be-
tween her teeth, chrushed it almost to a jelly.
The officer not liking that trap, jerked out
his finger, and the girl swallowed the collar
This ended the search, as Mr.. Miller concluded
the collar was then beyond his jurisdiction,

Markets and Money Matters at Cincinnati.

The extraordinary high prices of -four and
wheat, noticed in our last, has been fully sus-
tanned during the week; and, under the infiu-
ence of the advices by the steamer Baltic, a
further advance of twenty-five cents per bar
rel was established on Monday, but reaction,
both in New York and this market has taken
| place, and the advance has not been sustained.
| The advance in -four in the Liverpool market
was Is to rs per barrel, instead of 3D. as the
stupid individual who reports the telegraph
news for the Western press at New York, re-
ported. The private advices, however, are
not as favorable as the public circulars would
lead us to suppose, as may be inferred from
the unfayorable turn the New York market
took on Monday.
| In our market for hogs no change has taken
| place during the week, either as regards the
general feeling on the part of packers and deal
ers, or as regards prices. No contracts, that
we know of, have been made, and there is a
very general disposition manifested, both by
buyers and owners, to hold back until the
packing season opens Droyers have, as a
general thing paid prices for their hogs rem
dering them unable to sell at Sc 25@6 SO net,
except at a material loss, and they, therefore,
are more disposed to run the chances for few
weeks than to sell now at positive loss.
The money market has been easy during
the entire week; the demand is quite limited,
and capital is abundant. Most of the first
class local paper offering is taken by the Banks
at the regular rates, and such can be negotia-
ted in the street at SOLO per cent; good pa
per goes at 1O012, and other kinds at 15@18.
Sixty day bills on the East and South are ne
gotiated at interest and y per cent off; not
many offering. The excitement and stringen-
cy in the money market in New York has had
no influence whatever upon ours.

TBE GERMAx PREss-GRAvR CHARGEs.-

The GERMAN PREss-GRAvR CHANGES
Our German newspaperdom is again excited,
and this time almost to desperation No soon
er had the war relative to the Riding Knights
mentioned in our paper several days since
ceased among our larger bier bretherns than
another fight was commenced. 1t appears that
the Volksfreund accused Mr. Moliter, the edi-
tor Of the Volksblatt, with having received ST.
-0o0 for supporting Mr.. Chase for Governor
during the late canvass -.
The Volksblatt Indignantly denied the
charge, when the Volksfreund published the
affidavit of German stating thathe overheard
Mr. Stickney, his employer, say one morning
previous TO the election that ''they had big
meeting last night and had appropriated Sl,oOo
to the editor of the Volksblatt." Te meet
tfis Npolitor Publishes the affidavit of Mr. Stick
ney, asserting that he had no knowledge o
any such proceedings, and that he never made
the assertion imputed to him.
The Volksfreund meets this stiff denial
with the assertion chat one of the atfldaylts
is made by German, and the other by al
/ American, the Germans cannot hesitate whlcf
to believe! There the matter rests to THU
date. OF course, we don't like to interfere II
1 this 'rfurrin'' war, but we can't refrain iron
expressing the opinion that so far, Bro. Mol
tor is triumphantfy victorious. We hope
however, fiat. the beligerentS Will continue t.
arnuse the folks over the Rhine. Well keel
an eve to- their movements, and shall take plea
lsure in recording their achievements for tn
benefit ofthe rest of mankind.

wharfage and the wharf-Mastsr.

We perceive by looking over the books oi
our wharf master, Mr.. P. G. ORiley, that du-
ring the month of October, just closed, PAP
steamers passed here, and the wharfage re-
ceipts thereon amounted to 1894 so. During
the month Of October, last year, only 100 boats
passed our city, and the wharfage receipts
thereon amounted to $195 SO, the receipts Of
last October being nearly two hundred dollars
over the same month of last year. This
month, we anticipate a large increase over
last month. The river is now in an excellent
state and still rising, and freights must soon
become more abundant. ~
Speaking of wharfage matters, we may
here say, that some complaint was lately
made in the City Council, which resulted il
the Councils appointing a committee to inyes-
tigate the books, &C., of the wharfmaster
The books were found correct and established
the fact that the wharf-master had not only
done his entire duty, and made prompt pay
ments of receipts to the Treasurer, but had
given the city credit for sums not collected
and which his duty did not call upon him te
credit the city with till they were collected
Mr.. 0Riley promptly appeared before tht
Council, and after explaining his whole course
insisted upon resigning if single member o.
the Council objected to his remaining in. We
are gratifed to say that by an unanimous vote
he was relieved from all censure. Mr.. 0Riley
makes an excellent Wharf-master, and we
hope he will be continued in the Office just 81
long as he will have it. The city's interest:
will not suffer in his hands. He has made
the best wharf-master we ever had, and ht
will continue to preserve his reputation in tina
particular.

Our election returns by telegraph are BY no
yneans yet completes, yet they betoken brilliant
trftamphs for the American party These
elections have illustrated, that SO far from the
AmericaIT party being dsab as its enemies
ftave been ready to.sEear it was tits alive and
kicking, full Of cxuberance, and rising to the
prime of existence! ..,s.zsss
In Massachusetts,, Gardner, the American
candidate, who as tho Louisville Journal says,
has been abused by the Free-soil papers for
endeavoring to resuscitate the American party
on the Philadelphia platform, has been re-eleet-
ed by majority, and by about 15 900 plfFah-
ty. An American Legislature has also been
elected in opposition to Republican and Old
Line opposition.
The news from New York has been cheer
ing from the first, and we do not think 1t can
let down. The indications are certainly at this
time, that the American party has carried the
State triumpnantly over all the shells. We
have already announced the election of Eras-
tus Brooks, Esq, to the Senate over the bitterest
opposition ever leyeled against man, and
-
made the more vituperous by his recent dis
cusson with Archbishop Hughes.
In Maryland, the Americans have swept the
State like hurricane, electing five out of the
six Congressman. The election has been q
very exciting one in that State, but the Amer
lican party rules. Amt it a little astonishing
that what the anti Americans call the abolition
party, should triumph so in the Soulful!
/ At the present writing, but little has beer
heard from Louisiana. The Americans arr
doing well SO far as heard from, having swep
j n Orleans as start.
We are hearing no clarion crows from GU
anti- American Old Line friends. They ar,
, the most meek and quiet set of christians w
have seen for some time. They have no
f even found anything to crow over in Wiscon
sin. Although there the foreigners have rulet
: triumphantly, they have this time obtainec
, so meagre victory that they don't feel bi
like hoIlering
