the public are merely specimens of hundreds

Allegheny Live Stock Market
ALLEGHENY, February a,

cATTLE-The supply of cattle to day
was very light, numbering only some
625 head, and in consequence the mar
ket was stronger, with an advance of
fnlly SOC per hundred established on all
GRADES compared with the prices of one
Teek ago. The market, however, was
devoid of excitement, and nearly all the
stock taken by the retail trade. Prices
ranged from 4 50a5 80 for stockers; for
medium butchers stock, 6 50a7 90, and
for prime butchers stock 5OaS so per
hundred. The quality was fully up to
the usual standard of the market, and
the pens empty before the close of the
market.
SHEEP-The number on sale num-
bered some $500 head, which was con-
siderably ahead of last weeks supply.
Several droves were taken for shipment
east, but the greater portion were
bought by our butchers at prices rang
ing from l 5Oa2 so per head for the low
est grades; 3 50a4 80 per hundred for
common to fair, and 5 OOa6 90 per hun
dred for prime to extra. Before we left
the yards the pens were nearly empty.
HOGS-The supply has been very
light and prices again advanced over
last week, with sales reported in retail
way at ii OOa14 so per hundred, gross,
as to quality. At these high figures the
supply was inadequate to the demand
for the Pittsburgh market, and nearly
all were sold early in the day.

Washington Itenis.

WASHINGTON, February 1.-THE COM
mittee on Reconstruction were to-day
to have decided definitely as to the res
toration of Mississippi to the Union, but
postponed action in consequence of in.
formation that another delegation from
that State is now on its way to Wash
ington. The committee decided TO re-
port bill removing political disabili-
ties from a number of persons in the
South.
Mr.. Holbrook, delegate from Idaho,
having used grossly insulting language
to Mr.. Butler in the discussion of the
Indian appropriation bill, he was
brought before the bar of the House, in
charge of the Sergeant-at-Arms, and Sc
verely censured by the Speaker.
The committee on Ways and Means
has agreed to report the bill introduced
by Mr. Schenck ON the Goth of January
to strengthen the public credit and re-
lating 70 contracts for the payment OF
coin, pedging the faith of the United
States to the payment of the bonds in
coin

APnIPnCPI.

NEW YORK, February Edward
Boyle alias Francis was before Recorder
Hackett to-day for sentence, having
pleaded guilty of felsnious assault and
battery. Assistant District Attorney
Hutchings said it had been stated i'll
the newspapers that the prisoner was
wanted in Michigan for the murder OF
the Sheriff of Kalamazoo county. Cap
ital punishment has been abolished in
Michigan, and, therefore, in the event
of conviction, there, he could only
be sent to the States Prison for
life; but as the sentence could be
pronounced on the pleas for very long
term, it would be better for the Court
to make his punishment quick and Sc,
we're here as warning to the desperate
men who were infesting the city, a large
class of whom are coming from other
cities to pursue their lawless avocations.
He moved, therefore, that the Judgment
of the law be pronounced on the pris.
Oner. The prisoner was sentenced &c
forty years confinement in the State
prison.

Eyasions of Internal Revenue.

New YORK, February 4.-The Times
says of the recent developments relative
to evasions of internal revenue taxes
in Wall street, that when Mr.. Webster
came into office, few days ago, he
found large class of people whr claim
ed to be brokers and who had taken
out brokers' license, which is fifty dol
lars, who were in reality bankers and
ought to have been paying license as
such, which is one hundred dollars and
two dollars per Thousand on all over
$4,000 capital. Many brokers and
large stock and banking houses reported
NO capital at all. None returned any
deposits as taxable. Mr.. Webster's
purpose is to make these people pay
their arrearages during the past fifteen
months, so several houses have already
came forward to comply with the asses
sor's view of the case. If Mr. Webster
ruling is sustained that the law imposes
a tax of ons-twenty-fourth of one per
cent. on capital employed as applicable
to the daily temporary loans negotiated
by brokers upon stocks, gold, &c, the
income from this source alone in Mr..
Websters district will be over three
millions Of dollars added to the public
revenue.

Prison.

while flooring under the insane idea
that some one was going to rob him,
took his watch and $500 out in the

lite has become sane again.

twelve murderers, two of whom are
women. Most of these were arrested
during the past month.
The last report of the Metropolitan

rests made during the past year, OF
which 81 500 were females. OF these
arrests 70 were for murder.
1t is stated that additional facts have
been obtained, clearly establishing that
Maher, now under arrest, was the muir
derer of Rogers, and among them it will
be established that the coat given
Maher was worn by the accused on the
morning of the preparation of the
stabbing.

From Montreal.

MONTREAL, February Awhile the
concert and ball, at st. Patrick's Hall,
was in progress last night, 1000 persons
being present, cry was raised that the
roof was giving way. All rushed to the
street, but while the last were getting
out the roof fell with crash. Several
persons were injured, but, it is hoped,
none killed.
The snow storm continues with great
fury and travel is stopped.
