"A to save the public from imposition, l
wish to make known that Joseph A. Wier-
man, formerly citizen Of Mcclianicstown,
Md, now Of Mt. Holly Springs, Pa, is Il
notorious rascal, will obtain goods or mon.
ey under false pretense (undcr the cloak OF
religion), and if he had his just dues to,
day ought to be in the pcnitenliary. If he
can rob and swindlc the citizens of Mt
Holly as much as he did some of the citi'
zens of McchanicstOwn, the two years he
lived here, he ought to be getting rich by a
system of wholesale robbery. In conciu'
sion want the public to know that he is
a notorious villain, not worthy the respect

HEAVY TRAvEL.-The Pennsylva'
MIA Railroad is running passenger
trains to the Centennial beyond its
normal capacity. The company had
built 100 passenger cars to meet the
special demand, but they are com.
PEELED to call on other railroads for
more cars. On Monday and Tuesday
of last week as high as five thousand
passengers had to remain at Altoona
because the cars we're all in use and
there were none left to carry them
At Pittscurg still larger crowd un
accommodated until the company
could secure from other lines Of trav
ell the required passenger cars. Tt
give some idea of the travel we would
state that on Monday the Day Elk
press, east, had to be divided in l;
sections or seperate trains, with JUS
SO many locomotives. On Tuesday
the Day Express was divided into II
eections. and so with every western
train coming east, some had 7 sec
tons, come 9, and so on, all the car
and trains are crowded full to over
flowing, so much so that all could no
be accom- modated.

4 FAST YOUNG MANS OF.
REER.

The sure result of persistent evil
course Of squan iering money in gam.
bling, fast women and wine, is again
exemplifed in the career Of William
Hart, who was arrested in this city
on Saturday, on Court street, for the
larceny of $4,000 worth of diamonds
and jewelry from the Hon. VIM KEN
bic, Of Philadelphia, in July last
Hart is 81 years Of age, very good
looking, Of good family and address.
Moving in good society, with more
than the usual amount of money at his
command, he fell into evil company,
and, losing the respect Of his friends,
went deeper into vice, and in a mo-
ment of desperation robbed the Hon.
William Kemble. Of Philadelphia, Of
$1,000 worth of diamonds and jewel.
ny on the 9Th of last July. He fled
from the city, was suspected and the
matter put into the hands of the
prince of detectives, Allan Pinkerton
He traced Hart northward and com.
municated with Assistant Deputy
Chief Ham, Of this city, who gave the
case. with photograph of the Grim
inal, to special Officers Dearbon and
Skerton. These officers got on Hart's
track few days since and but for q
hotel clerks blunder would have had
him in custody. He slipped them
that time however, only to be caught
the next day on Court street. He con
iessed his guilt to the officers, saying
that Immediately after the larceny he
went to New York where he pawnec
Ais ill-gotten gains, on which he only
realized $1,000. He travelled under
the aliases of Cornell and Collin
from New York to Saratoga, where h
spent his money on fast women ant
in gaming. On getting we'll down i,
pocket, few weeks ago, he came te
the Hub, and after short acquaint
ance with the sharpers of Howard
street got broke" He recently, il
order to live, had to pawn his cloth

Baltimore, permitted his wife to
move over here with three children
last spring while he remained in

ceiving information that she was not
acting altogether prudent, he came
over on Saturday week. A short
while after his arrival Mrs. Bowen
left the house. Mr.. Bowen gathered
all the information he could in regard
to her conduct, and on Monday morn
ing he packed up his househould
goods and left for Baltimore, taking
his three children with him. Mrs

On the bank Of the Mississippi riv.
er, at Mitchell, ILL.,, there are six In
dian mounds of various sizes, ar
ranged in almost circle. One Of the
mounds is twenty feet high and exact
ly four feet square, and, singularly
its four sides are laid off apparently
with some thought of the cardinal
points, since the north side faces the
polar star and the other sides the re-
naming points of the compass. The
Rev. DR.. West, Of St. Louis, is now
engaged in opening the mounds. In
the first one opened he found, FIVE
feet from the top, surrounded by
baked clay, the remains of fire and
charred bones. Farther down in the
mound there was an appearance OF a
grave, and the bones OF a man were
found, among which were mingled a
large number of she'll beads, which
had apparently been hung about the
neck OF the body.

A CORRESPONDENT OF the Balti.
more Gazette, from Lancaster, Penn.
sylvania, relates the following anec.
dote of Thaddeus Stevens: Many
years ago, when Thaddeus Stevens
was practicing law in Lancaster, he was
employed to defend two bank officers
who had been indicted for conspiracy
they having used the funds Of the
bank in speculation. All the legal
talent o. Philadelphia and surround
lag counties had been engaged to as
,ist in the prosecution. When the
trial was opened. Mr.. Stevens rose,
and addressing the court said; If it
please your honors, presuming there
are different degrees Of guilt attached
to the prisoners, my clients, I move
they be tried separately The judge
consulted for few moments with his
associates, who consenting the motion
was granted and so recorded. Wait
ing some time for Mr.. Stevens to &c
on, the Judge at last became impa-
tient, said impstuously; Proceed
Mr.. Stevens, proceed. We are wait.
for you, sir, Stevens rose deliberate.
ly, and looking around the courtroom
for a moment, he said: Did your
honors ever hear Of one man being
tried for conspiracy Then waving his
hand to his clients, he said: You can
go home. And they did go home
The jury were discharged and the
court adjourned. And for this piece
of legal strategy Thad. Stevens re-

The San Francisco Chronicle says
yesterday morning about 2 o'clock q
German named Fred Weisenberg,
while proceeding along Market street,
near Nineteenth, on bis way home,
was intercepted by two rough look
ing men, who asked him for his val.
uaLles. He plocidly babe them go
to Jericho, and made vigorous lunge
for the throat Of the spokesman, at
the same time shouting police The
two daring highwaymen quaked at
the sonorous cry, and turning on their
heels darted off at lively pace. The
German started after one Of them,
down the street, and was gaining on
him when the fellow turned and dis
charged a shot at his pursuer. The
stolid German, undismayed by the
flash and the warning whistle Of the
bullet past his ear, sped on and fol-
lowed the fugitive into dark street,
where the latter hoped nimbly over
a fence. To "follow the leader" in
this last instance proved to be the
most distressing experience of the
evening for the Compliant German,
but after much exertion and consider
able putting he clambered to the top
and fell over with a thud upon the
PROSTATE body of the robber, who was
crouched under the shadow Of the
fence completely exhausted, with a
Derringer, clutched in his fist. The
German took the pistol away, and lift
ing his corpulent form up allowed
himself to drop on the frightened man
three or four times until he begged
for mercy. The captor forced him to
re-scale the fence and marched him
to prison, where he was charged with
assault to murder and attempt to rob.
