All such disagreeablc eruptions may be re-
moved by using Breatlinger's Fluid Ertrac of

eli met at half past last night. The ordinance
creating the Sixth Ward was read the second
time. Alfred Caldwell, James w. Paxton md
s. Brady were appointed Committee to 90 to

Marietta, Cleveland and Hempfeld Railroad
bonds, with view of an equitable settlement
the action of the Committee to be subiec, to
the judgement of Council The Committee nm
Streets and Alleys reported Zane street in bad
condition and favored its improvement from
Seventh street to East Wheeling Bridge. Mr..
Gray made motion for further Improvement
to which Mr.. Wilson objected, wherenpon Mr.
Clayton arose and said, they didn't want the
street 'cadamised; he had seen load of bav ,,n.
set in the street; he thought we ought to hive
streets along which load of hay and other
vehicles could pass without upsettin'. Mr..
Gray's amendment was Withdrawn, and the re.
port adopted
Barbara Trusher was left widow, with a
urge family. She was fined for selling whisky
and wanted her money back. Petition referred
number of gentlemen petitioned for more
light on Fourth street, at the beginning or
Centre. Mr.. Pannel opposed the petition
Mr. Clayton said he would vote in favor of the
petition. He said Mr.. Pannel knowcd all about
board yards, and knowed what kind of company
loafed about 'em. The object of the light at the
point indicated, was to enable people to tell
what kind of company they was gitdn' into o,
nights, there being sort of murdcrous looking
cut throat board yard there. The petition was
referred. Tho proposition of P. P. Sellers to
keep the town clock at $40 per annum, was ac-
cepted. Mr.. Hallowel was re.appointed As
SCISSOR, and the Council adjourned.

w-Azl. for Lo0e.-It is not often nowadays
that we hear of man committing suicide all for
love, but we are occasionally called upon to re-
cord a sad instance. A day or two ago, young
man living short distance below Wellsville,
on the Ohio, hung himself by the neck to a limb
of an apple tree and was there found dangling
dead. The deceased was about twenty eight
years of age and was greatly respected by all
who knew him. He had been low spirited and
melancholy for some time previous, young
lady to whom he was engaged having married

WASHINGTON, April I9.-Judge Crawford
took his seat on the bench at 30 minutes past
10, and after IN interval Of several minutes,
passed in complete silence, Sickles came in, ac-
companed BY the jailUr and Officers. His
faithful, iuSeparablc companion, Rev. Haley,
Unitarian minister. has been by his side during
the whole trial. Mr.. Haley is quite indignant
at the liberty taken with him by the District
Attorney, in describing him as n clerical supe to
keep the theological part ofthe house in ordtr. 1t
was he who furnished the scriptural part of the
argument, hence the application. Mr.. Ould
sought an opportunity Of explaining, but Mr.
Haley declined.
Emanuel b. Hart and Thos. j. Browne, Of y.
y, unremitting in their attentions to Sickle.
DIR. ,,Moorhead is equally attentive to Sickles.
SenUr BaGioli has Inot been in court during the
past week Chevnlier WyckOff evinceS active
sympathies with the defense. The same faces
are seen in court day after day. The room is
always filled TO its greatest capacity.
The Judges decision yesterday, admitting
the evidence Of adultery. took ali by surprise.
This decision hardly covers the admission of
rebutting evidence. The defence will be through
with proof to morrow. The trial will probably
be over this day week. Two counsel sum up
on each side. There will be no charge from the
Judge in this district.
John Thompson, at one time coachnan of
Sickles, examined-Let Mr. Sickles' employ on
the 4th OF Feb. 90; was acquainted with Key
by seeing hun aud driving lIlui; Mrs. =. went
from the house in the carriage alonc she went
out mostly from 10 to /, and remained ont till
or o; Key always joined Mrs S in the street;
could hardly mention day that he did not
meet u.s. some times he would come into the
carriage aud tell me to drive through back
Streets when he would meet US he would always
salute Mrs, Sickles, and say, Good morning,
madame; sometimes he would remain on horse
back, and some times dsmount he never got
in the carriage at Scklcs' door, and always, but
once, got out before we got back to the house;
he always got out at the Garner Of the Avenue
and 10Th ST, at the Club House; knew him
only once to come home with Sickles; that was
in April or May last year; lie went into the
house, and when he came out could not say;
have known Key to come to the house while
Sickles was absent in n. y; he always came at
dusk; knew him to be there every night almost;
some times knew him to remain there late at
night; other times | did not know how long he
would remaip; he ard Mrs S. always remained
in the study; the door was shut while they were
there; there was sofa in that room, with its
foot right at the door; have known him TO be
there one night while Sickles was absent, till l
o'clock in the morning; was always there when
went to bed Mt 10 or IL o'clock, and would
not know how long he remained; these occa-
sions there was no person in the room but Mrs.

~ Stealing From the Sergeants.-The 9th
er day somebody without the fear of almost
certain punishment, moved and instigated by
an unreasonable desire to be comfortable, went
into the city Sergeants Office, (the last place in
the wOrld,) and stole therefrom valuable over
coat belOnging to the efficient officer Hawley.-
The thief also took the sergeant's backing
brush and his only box of bIaeking. Mr. Haw.
ley yesterday found his cOatat Meyers dOggery
on Water street, the proprietor of which defect
able concern said he bought it from an old man
for fifty cents. The old man alluded to proved
to be one Thomas Ayres, almost an oc,agena-
ran, and so feeble that he can scarcely move
about. lie was arrested, and sad to say, found
guilty: he was committed to jail in his rapidly
declining years tormuse upon the sorrowful
results of a misspent life.
