GERMAN IMPERIAL CREATION OF NEW PRUs-
SIAN PEERS. Majesty the Emperor Of
Germany has, by the issue Of royal decree,
created twenty-five new Prussian peers. The
gentlemen who have been ennobled have al
ready served the State either in the army or
the civil departments of the government or
contributed to the sustention Of the monarchy
as land owners and taxpayers This vigorous
action of the Emperor was made an absolute
necessity in consequence of the defiant atti-
tude which the members Of the Prussian
Chamber of Peers assumed and maintained
toward and against the wishes of the people
and the policy Of the government by their
class opposition to the passage Of the Counties
Reform bill. Emperor William found that
the alternative was made to lie between the
destruction Of the Upper Chamber or the
humiliation of the throne and people. He
has solved the difficulty by wise and timely
exercise Of his prerogative, and thus illus
trated the working Of the German system of
government in q manner very favorable to the
wholesome conversation Of checks and bal
ances particularly when they are fairly ad-
justed and wisely weighed. Great Britain has
tided over public crises of like gravity in o
similar manner on several occasions, previous
to the final passage Of the Reform bill and
since. The Prussian peers of the ancient
regime have damaged the cause of feudal class
privilege almost irreparably by their course Of
opposition to healthy democratic progress.

denly taken from among us.
Not less eloquent, tender and true are those
of the leaders of pulpit thought in our sister
city. Mr.. Talmage forcibly presented the
lessons Of Mr.. Greeley's life and death to his
vast audience last evening. His life is on
illustration of what indomitable energy, deter
mination and pluck will do when coupled with
close attention to business. His death develops
the doctrine of brotherhood. And though few
States were willing to accept him as a political
leader all the States will vote for him as man
worthy Of honor, and by the electoral college
Of the world he will be proclaimed Presi-
dent Of the great reformatory move
ments Of the world and of the intel
lectual union of the country" This
sentiment of Mr.. Talmage was applauded by
the audience, and shows the hearty ac-
cord in which they were with everything that
had been said concerning the deceased man.
Mr.. Talmage also referred to the high tone of
Mr.. Greeley's journalism, to his religious
faith and his expression thereof with his latest
breath, and urged literary men, and especially
newspaper men, to slack up in their express
speed for he believed that overwork killed
Mr. Greeley, and not SO much sorrow over
his domestic loss or his political defeat. Mr..
Beecher, too, closed an eloquent sermon by
reference to the dead journalists man who
was the light of our dwellings, and whom he
greatly loved. A man of enormous energy,
who did not undertake anything except
that which, in his judgment, was to benefit
the generation in which he lived. His death
has brought death nearer to the thoughts of
men, and to-day mons thoughts and CONVEX
saton turn into one channel. Mr.. Beecher's
recommendation, therefore, was to put our
selves in tho hands Of God in all storms, and
trust Him 10 the end.

A DOOMED MAN.-We paid visit
to the steamer Express yesterday and
found the clerk, which is Ed. Ansehutz,
completely surrounded by fancy rail-
ing in which is deliberately carved
pretty little baby wagon wheels, wooden
nutmegs with gilt ends, and all sorts OF
curlycues, the whole surmounted by a
pair Of highly polished names, so that
when he wishes to talk to passengers
he has to poke his head out OF the en-
closure something as chicken extends
its head between the slats of a coop, or
turtle protrudes its head from its shell.
Ed, which is Anschutz, talks OF hav-
another story Of pretty things put on
this ornamented henhouse OF his.
If he does, the only intercourse he can
have with the outside world wilkDe
through a two,inch anger hole to be
bored in front of this enclosure. If he
continues to fall away as he has during
the winter, that auger hole will be big
enough for two such, but we insist that
Captain Phil. have it sandpapered, for
we count Ed. glorious good fellow,
even if he did get married without
asking our consent, and we wouldn't
have anything happen him for innu-
merable worlds. We don't like that
henhouse Of his, though.

The City Nearly Unanimous.

The voting yesterday on the PROPOSE
ton to authorize the Board Of Super
visors to subscribe $225, 900 to the Pitts.
burgh, Wheeling and Kentucky rail,
road on behalf of Ohio county, passed
off very quietly. The day was most
decidedly unfavorable for electioneering'
yet the heavy msjorities given in favor
of the city townships show that the
friends Of improvement and advance,
ment were active and earnest in their
efforts.
The result is an almost unanimous
vote in the city in favor Of the railroad.

exception of Triadelphia and Liberty

RIGHT AND Observation-Disclosures
Hall was we'll filled on the occasion OF
the first presentation ofthis truly beau
iful and instructive allegory; but it
should have been crowded. For grand
eur and thrilling effect, it has rarely
been equaled in the city.
The acting of Mr.. Mcdonnell, Mr..
A. T. Ray, and Mr.. Bernard is 80 ex-
ceedingly correct, one can scarcely
regard them as amateurs. The fine,
mellow voice OF Miss r. ia 30 well
adapted to the stage, her rendition and
action 30 natural, she secures our favor
at once.
The other ladies, too, did well.
We shall be disappointed if the ball is
not crowded tonight.

This Society, connected with the
Wheeling Female College, designed
giving an entertainment, at the college
before the holidays, but postponed it
until tomorrow night, as our readers
will remember. The programme pre-

is rich, rare and racy, and will call out
such an audience as Wheeling can turn
out when she pleases. The Little
Women" need funds to purchase books
for their library, and they will, we
know, receive ample encouragement
from our citizens. We hear that Prof.
Morton intends giving prizes to some
of the contestants for orstorical and
declamatory honors.

An OUrRAGE.-Again have the rights
OF our citizens been invaded, and we
call upon them to arm in their vindica-
ton. We suppose that when the
humblest man in the city is deprived OF
his liberty by a tyrant, the rights Of all
our citizens are trampled on. Wake,
citizens, wake! The tyrant stalks
abroad in the midnight hour. He has
taken one Of your most noted and best
beloved members; a man who has, in
his day, devoted more time to the city's
benefit than any other in it, has been
seized for "doin' nuthin'," and i'm
mersed in a loathsome dungeon, by q
tyrant. That tyrant is Deputy
Sergeant Bob Junkins. The famed
citizen is lobe Vance. Toby wasn't
a dom nuthin'." He don't never do
nuthin'. His best grip is dom nuthin.
Yea, the bigger part Of Tobe's life is
passed dom nuthin'. Weask if you will,
citizens, permit these outrages2 We
see YOUR clenched teeth and compressed
lips and your laundering noes! Arm
against those who thus trespass on
people who don't do nuthin'! Get your
guns, cannons, pixies, blunderbusses,
omnibusses, every weapon you have
handy and rally to Tobe's defense.
Else shame upon your boasted liberty.
With tears in our eyes and half a bis
cult in our mouth we ask you to Tobe's
relief

man on the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road, named Wilson, fell from freight

number of the seats have been secured

RIVER NRws.-The river was still
rising last evening, with sixteen feet
nine inches in the channel. 1t is re-
ported falling at Pittsburgh, with ten
feet six inches in the channel.
The rain set in yesterday to make
day Of it. rendering matters on the levee
very dull and disagreeable.
The ice is still running 30 heavy that
navigation in safety is impossible. 1t
is annoying to steamboatmen to hsve
so ine river and be unable to use it.
The reports from above are that
there Is an immense fleet of coal boats
ready to go down with their tows as
soon as the ice will permit.
The Carrie Brooks, on her way from
Marietta to Pittsburgh, broke her
wheels three or four times. She is now
laid up at Bellaire for repairs, having
but one bucket on her wheels, as we
are informed.
The Express did not leave yesterday,
not only because Of the ice, but also
because she had not been fully repaired
after the injuries to her wheels in COM
ing up.
If the ice will permit. the Major
Anderson will leave for Cincinnati to-
day at noon. Capt. Muhleman wisely
thinks there is no use in being obliged
to lay up half dozen times between
here and Cincinnati for repairs. He
will have a large passenger list. Quite
a number Of the members elect Of the
Legislature and Constitutional Conven'
ton will take passage on the Anderson.

The Negative powers OF life are strong, but
In few years how often the paid hue, the
lack-lustre eye and emaciated form, and the
impossibility of application to mental ef-
fort, show their baneful influence. 1t soon
becomes evident to the observer that some
depressing Influence Is checking the deyel-
opment ofthe body. Consumption is talked
OF, and perhaps the youth Is removed from
school and sent into the country. This is
one of the worst movements. Removed
from ordinary diversions Of the ever-chang-
ing scenes OF the city, the powers of the
body, too much enfeebled to give zest to
healthfnl and rural exercise, thoughts are
turned inwardly upon themselves.
1.-THE patient be q female the approach OF
the menses is looked for with anxiety as
the first symptom in which nature Is to
show her saving power in diffusing the
circulation and visiting the cheek with
the bloom of health. Alas! increase Of ap-
petite has grown by what II fed on. The
energies OF the system are Frustrated, and
the whole economy Is deranged. The beau
tiful and wonderful period In which body
