The prisoner was locked up to await tele-
graphic answer to inquiries sent to Ney Or
leans and Huntsville.
Seryis was originally from New York.
About nine months or year ago he was
arrested in New Orleans, on an alleged
charge Of being implicated in the passing Of
forged paper to the amount Of $l3, 00O upon

TIE WRONG PERsoN.-Mr. Hugh Nc
Closkey, one Of the gentlemen Admins
traitor Lewis feels under obligations to for
his election, was yesterday met on St.
Charles street by q well dressed and stylish
looking stranger. The latter asked some
questions of the former, which Mr.. 6IcClos
key, after moments hesitation, seemed
to grow excited over. The stranger left
suddenly, but was quickly pursued by Mr..
McCloskey, who laid his hand on tie new
conner, gesticulating somewhat violently.
The gentleman turned his back, replying
that he had no time to answer cOnundrums,
and went on his way. Those who witnessed
the scene surmise that the stranger is a
roper-in, and through ignorance picked Up
the wrong man. Others say that the man
was put up to try his skill as capper by
others Of the fraternity, only TO see what
success he would meet with by plying his
tricks on a well known citizen. AT any
rate, the scene afforded bit Of trifing
amusement for those who witnessed it.
AN OLD STAND Y.-During the militia
mutiny excitement Of Friday that white
locked old colored veteran Of 1912, Major
Jordan Noble, the drummer boy Of ChaI-
mette," appeared at headquarters and asked
Major General Longstreet to assign him to
duty Although tottering with age, bis eye
il bright and mind clear, and when AdjU-
tant General Street informed him that
there was no immediate use for his services
he seemed really disappointed.
WOULD Nor PRosECUTE.-On the fourth
instant Sergeant Wooley, seventh precinct,
found it necessary to arrest Mr. Brinker,
living at the corner of Jersey street and
Peters avenue. The officer heard the sound
Of heavy blows, and heard Mrs. Briulzer
screaming as if in pain. He entered the
house and found the woman PROSTATE,
when he took tie husband prisoner. On
the way tc tie ealaboose Brinker aeknowl-
edged that IL had struck his wife three
times The subject created considerable
scandal in the neighborhood, and il was re-
ported that the madame's prostration was
caused BY dose Of laudanum. The case
was taken before Recorder Campbell, and
Yesterday the wife refused to prosecute.
Sergeant Wooley made good effort in the
pursuit Of his duties, but his efforts were
frustrated, as Recorder Campbell dismissed
the accused.

LAST WEEKS Herald contained an ar
ticle in reference TO the provisions Of
bill now pending in the Legislature, en-
larging the powers and jurisdiction OF the
District, OF Juhnstown Court. In reply
10 this, an Indignant writer in the last
Johnstown Tribune calls the ''Ebensburg
men, some very hard names-inputes to
them ways that are dark and tricks that
are vain-asserts that Mr.. Henry is
pledged to the passage of the bill, and de
mands It's enactment without any change
or amendment. In the climax Of his en>
thusiasm in favor of genera and ''ex>
elusive" jurisdiction, he most soemnly
warns the hated and dangerous "Ebens-
burg men," that if Mr.. Henry refuses TO
give them the supplement just as 1t is now
III his hands, they will ''Strike," not for
their "altars and their freS'-nut for
God and their native land"-but For the
removal of the county seat j. and that
they viii continue to strike until Ebens>
burg is stricken from the list of county
seats We have heard of this kind o.:
striking before and know who were most
damaged by the blows that were then
given and received. While we are indif-
ierent about the bill referred to- we are
not to be frightened from our propriety by
having the removal ghost again shaken in
our face. 1t was verv maGGanimuus,
however, on the part of the writer IN the
Tribune not to deal the men of Ebcnsburg
foul blow, but to warn Them in time OF
their fate, provided that bill does not pass
JISt as 1t IS. Whether 1t does or not, when
he and his legion of stritlrs have continued
''to strike until Ebensburg is stricken
from the list of county Seats" We hope
they may have a good time of it, and
"lnay we be there to see.''

For tho first time in the legislative his
tory of this State, the House of Represen-
tatives has wilfully and deliberately com
mitted political .triO de Sc, or, III plain
language, self-dcstruction. The abdlca-
zion Of its constitutional powers was as
shameless AS it was reckless and unseem-
ly. The constitution Of the State declares
In the seventeenth section of the first
article, that ''neither House shall, with
out the consent ot tho other, adjourn ior
more than three days" In The face Of
this plain constitutional provision. the
House, without the concurrence Of the
Senate, by a vote of 81 nays TO SO nays,
adjourned from yesterday Friday werk
until last Wednesdays period OF fire
days. To bolster up the legality of this
unparalleled proceeding, Elliott, the Rad
ical Speaker, decided what no other living
man would decide, that Sunday was not
n legislative day in the meaning of the
constitution. Even admitting that he was
correct, still the adjournment plainly ex-
ceeded The prescribed limit. The Speak
er and the other Htty members who voted
for the resolution have assumed u fearful
responsibility and covered themselves with
inetlable disgrace. OF the fifty-one af-
frmutIve votes, forty .Jfvs are radicals,
and sic democrats-,J0ur of the six hail-
ing from Philadelphi honest Samuel Jo-
sephs, as matter OF course, being includ-
ed il the number. The House Of Repre-
senfatives has thus ceased 10 have "a legal
existence, and when lis members sku.ked
back 10 their dishonured seats on Wednes-
day last they could not breathe new
legislative life into body which they
themselves had destroyed In one short
month this branch of The Legislature has
become a by-word and reproach the
laughing stock of the peupe-and will be
known IN history as ''Elliotts Rump
House." The only thing that it seems
folly to understand is how TO adjourn,
and IN this consists the public safety, be-
cause the less time it spends at HARRIS
burg the less injury will be inflicted on
the interests Of The State. The people
will have to bear patiently with the shame
until the 2Slh of March, when It's exist
ence will be brought to "A close, and when,
it is 10 be fondly hoped in the interest OF
everything that gives character and digni-
~ to State, tBat the seats of the immOr~
tai ffty-One who voted themselves unfit
for tie positions they occupy will there
after know them GO more forever.

AT the special election last Tuesday in
the Fourth Senatorial District, IPhiladel-

was elected over Col. A. X. Mcclure, in

majority The scenes of violence and

radical police officers were the active of

In the district last October was 7 800, and
Col. NJ Clure has therefore made a most
gallant fight, but has been borne down by
the commission Of the usual monstrous
frauds under cover of The Infamous regis
try law. He has avowed his determine
tion to contest the election before a COM
mittee of the Senate. The Philadelphia
Post, ridical journal, thus speaks of tho
election and its result:

elected honestly and fairly by at least 2,0OC
votes. Wherever it was evident that he wai
