rS% Az INCoRRiGBLE RowDY.-Night
boSorc last Mr.. Nancy" Powers, a gentle
man of very Iow habits and associations,
who has just served out term in the
county Jail, went to Alderman McCourt-
news Office and asked to be recommitted,
saving that he entertained very high
opinion of the Fifth street institution us
first class boarding house. He was told
BIZ some one in the Office that lie could not
be committed unless he pcrpetrated some
offence. Without further talk Mr.. Powers
proceeded to break the windows of the
AIIerman's office. Aftcraccomplishiug that
undertaking. he walked ont into the street
and deliberately knocked down an unof-
Tending Hibernian, who happened to be
passing. Having INDUCED his humor to
this slight extent, he must needs satiatc
the devil that was in him, and passing
stranger of gcntecl appearance hoving in
sight, struck STr. Powers as being a good
subject to continue his exercise upon. The
stranger striking Mr.. P. in this light, Mr..
P. struck him blow that made him bite
the dust and curl himself up like tickled
cat. The stranger was assisted to his feet
and Immediately left. By this time the
story of Powers conduct had reached the
ears of officer Clayton, who promptly ar
rested Powers, and procuring a commit
ment from Aid. McCourtney, took him
(Powers) to Jail. We continue to soften
in favor of that rather hard institution, the
chain gang.

Excitement In Phiiadelphia.

Il = O. s - r. =
sPMLADELPHIA, Dec. 15.-SOme excite
ment is at present existing here. Pros
poets of riot Tonight. Anti-slaYery fair
being held at Concert Hall ind meeting ut
Assembly Buildings. During amcettng in
the morning n request was received from
the Mayor to remove q flag hanging before
Concert Hall, as in violation of an ordi-
nance, in obstructing the streets. The flag
bore certain words and characters which
might lead to disturbance of the peace.
Also, an order was received from the Sher-
i'll that the fair should be closed and the
Hall deserted before three O'Clock in the
afternoon. The proceeding produced mich
eIcltement. AboiitiOnists in council re-
solved toProcecd i'll body to Concert Hall
and protect their goods. The offensive
tug was. removed. The order of the Sher-
IN was demanded by the owners of the
building, who object to the action of the
Lessee in letting it for such purposes.
u. w. Curtis is to lecture Tonight ON the
aspect of the slavery question, ut National
nail. Advertisements appear in the pa-
pers Tor meeting outside to adopt such
measures as the exigencv may require to
prevent the dissemination of principles
calculated and intended to arouse spirit
OF most intense luminosity in the comtnu-
nifty and lead to fearful consequences, and
to check hireling incendiaries from making
further imtiamatory addresses in our local
city. The Mayor is taking every prccau-
ton to prevent disturbance, which seems
almost inevitable if other sides turn out
in strength.
SECOND DESPATCH,
+ Curtis lcctured tonight to nm audience
of 1000, while about 10000 attended out
side. The meeting of the latter party was
addressed by Gen'l John ID. Miles, Rich'd
Peters and others. Soon after Curtis
commenced several of the mob threw
stones at the building, breaking window
glasses. Five hundred police, stationed
in the vicinity. Immediately made rush
on the rioters and arrested several. This
summary proceeding had a tendency to
calm the excitement, which at first threat
ened serious consequences. Mayor Henry
and the Sheriff are on the spot directing
the police. During Curtis lecture he was
several times Kissed by the inside audience.
The hissers were Immediately elected by
police. Excitement subsiding. Trouble
ended.

THE PRopLEM SOLVED.

Lieut. Mullan has received an express from
Fort Benton, says the Ddllts Journal Of the I'd
inst, with the pleasing intelligence that bis long
cherished anticipations have been fully realized
BY the arrival at that point Of the steamer CHIP
pepG, direct from St. Louis, laden with two hun.
dred and eighty tons Of freight This is no un-
important incident even in this era Of eventful
transactions; for by it, 800 miles Of steam navi.
CATION have been added to that Of the Missouri,
making distance now open to steamers from St.
Louis, in this direction, Of 5000 miles on the
eastern slope of the continent On this side we
have steam-on the Columbian the same line
as far as the mouth Of Snake River, leaving only
distance Of land travel Of 600 miles over which
Lieut. Mullan is now building q wagon road with
al the Characteristic thoroughness Of his nature.
The next matter to be determined, Is the length
Of time each year that steamboats, can reach Fort
Benton. We believe in the end this will be &C.
eomplished longer than any One-the most san
guine-has hitherto anticipated. Settlement and
trade viii follow up speedily the clatter Of the
steamers wheels on both sides Of the continent,
and narrow the unsettled region down to a
