ALLEaED Arrnxp7nD CossrUpalr1os Upon 4

ALLEaED ATTEMPTED CONSTIPATION UPON
CHrID.-A day or two ago man named Fred
erick Satter went before Justice Rowekamp
and caused warrant to be issued for the ar
rest Of John Verhuber, charging him with an
assault and attempted constipation, which,
1t is alleged, was committed on Wednesday
Of last week, the 2lst inst. Verhuber was ar.
rested yesterday and taken before the magis-
trate above named, where the charge was
carefully investigated, and being deemed
guilty, he was committed in default of bail to
the amount of $500, to await trial before the
next term Of the Court Of Common Pleas.
The female upon whom this outrageous and
villainous assault Is alleged to have been made
is fatherlsss girl Of but eleven years If age,
and is 80 small and delicate as to seem still
younger. It is difficult to believed that any
one bearing the human shape could be guilty
Of an act so entirely bestial; but if it be true,
We most sincerely hope that the party may be
punished by the full penalty of the law.

A MODERN PENTHEsILsA COMMITTED TO
PRlsoS.-The race of the Amazons is not vet
extinct, and although the stories told Of PEN
thesilea and Thalestris may be nothing but the
mythoplasms Of the antique poets, there are
women among us who would almost induce
one to believe that both these personages were
real, and that If metempsychosis be true, their
souls have passed into modern bodies. One Of
these latter-day imitators Of those ancient
feminine warriors, named Elizabeth Rendrop,
was committed to the County Jail, yesterday
morning, for term of three days, by Justice
Schlee, Of Millcreek Township, for an assault
committed upon one of her own sex, whose
name we were unable to learn. After lying in
Jail for few hours her sentence was changed
to q fine, which she paid and departed, he,
fury, however, unabated by her temporary
incarceration.

BURGLARY AND ATTEMPTED ROBBERY ON
VINE-sTREET.-Yesterdsy morning, the res
idence of well-known butcher named Mayer,
located on Vine-street, near Green, was fel-
oniously entered by seme scoundrel whose
hardihood came very near being punished
with death. The fellow, it appears, effected
an entrance to the house through back win
dow into the room in which Mayer lay asleep,
but some Jdun pas caused noise, which
aroused the wife Of the man he intended to
rob.
Without betraying any alarm the woman
waited until the burglar had passed into
another room, when, without making any un-
necessary noise, she aroused her husband,
and, in whisper, informed him Of the fact
that some unknown nocturnal visitor was
then In the house. He then arose, and taking
q gun from the wall followed the would-be
robber, whose ears it seems were quick, and,
divining the cause Of slight rustic which he
heard ,incontinently leaped through window,
carrying with him the entire sash.
No time was now to be lost, and while the
burglar was endeavoring to make good his
escape, Mayer was trying to discharge his
gun; but, fortunately for this visitor, the
cap snapped, and before he could make
another trial the fellow had disappeared. If,
BY any possibility, one or two burglars could
be shot dead in the act, this species of theft
would become much less frequent; and
although We are always panied to hear of
violent and sudden deaths, we more than half
wish, for the benefit Of society, that some such
circumstance might occur.

He looked about, but falling to recognise
anybody OF anything, managed, after consid-
cradle difficulty, to find his way to his stop
ping place on Front-street, when he packed
his oarpst-sack and left for the blue grass

The FAIR AT THE MELoDEoN-We have been
extremely gratifed to learn that the Fair at
the Melodeon, for the benefit of the Sisters Of
Mercy, has been thus far largely attended, and
that the sale Of articles has been quite spirited.
1t will conclude on Tuesday evening Of next
week with an auction sale Of the articles re-
naming unsold, and grand promenade con-
cert. We sincerely hope that the affair will
prove fully as profitable as these gentle and
sympathy deserving Sisters expected, and that
they may be enabled from its profits TO extend
the work they have already, and under such
disadvantageous circumstances, began.
