The Pittsburgh Riots.

The grand jury, which has been inves-
tigating the riots of July last in this city,
has made special presentment to the
court giving the result of their inquiries,-
The document Is very lengthy, and gives
a detailed history of the events preceding
and subsequently to the acts of violence.
1t says the grand jury have been unable
to trace the proclamation calling out the
State troops farther than to the authorities
of the Pennsylvania railroad, and assert at
the time it was issued Governor Hartranft
was slumbering in his car in Utah terrific
were importuned not to resort to harsh
measures, but the advice was not needed
They stated that the testimony is con-
elusive that the Philadelphia soldiers fired
without orders after pistol shot from the
crowd, and denounce the act by which 90
citizens were killed as unauthorized, wilful
and wanton killing, which can be called by
no milder term than murder. They say
the whole military operation was a
blunder from beginning to end, and ex-
hiOlutu ~ pibliul hOotnCO VI bldinibH anu
executive ability worthy of commander
in-chief who selects major-generals for their
political or social rather than their military
qualifications.
The occupation of the round house is
characterized as q lamentable mistake, and
tue retreat of Gen. Brinton's forces, and
the fleeing of the State officials to Beaver
are severely criticised The grand Jury
claims that the citizens after being basely
deserted by the military put down the riot
and restored order, and that the subsequent
military occupation of the city long after
all danger had passed, was intended as a
threat to the citizens and mark of con-
tumely to the county. They say the mar
tial achievements under the head of the
governor have only their parallel in the
military feat of the French king who
marched his party up hill and then down
again.
The Pennsylvania railroad company is
severely criticised ror massiug cars here
when they knew interruption existed and
the presentment reflects severely upon the
governor for refusing to give information
which would have enabled them to give
more precise information. That it is not
more precise they say is due to the fact that
the grand jury has been thwarted openly
and privately in its inquiry by those to
whom the whole truth should have been Il
welcome vindcation. Its suppression COM
pels the opposite conclusion. The docu-
ment throughout is very bitter in tone, and
while it denounces the leaders of the mill
tary, endeavors to defend the citizens
against the charge of being in sympathy
with the rioters.

A Wife's View of DueIing.

Smith has had scene at the club with
another gentleman of peppery disposi-
tion blows and cards have been excbang-
ed, duel has been agreed upon, and he
returns to Break the news to his wife.
Miserable man ~ she cries in an ex-
cess of emotion, "would you go forth to
fight and be brought back to me all shot
full of holes and having your life blood all
spilled over the carpet? What would be-
come of me if you were killed? The light
of my life would be quenched in rayless
gloom, and | would be reduced to want and
misery, because all the fortune belongs to
you, aud, as you have made no will, when
you are killed all the property will go to

accuse me wrongfully. have thought of
every contingency, and arranged to secure
your happiness. Should l fall, all my
property will become yours. See here is
my will, duly signed, sealed and deliv-
ered.n
The young wife seizes it, runs over its
contents with anxions eyes, puts the
pecious document in her pocket, and then,
with the air of Spartan matron, says
"Go Avenge your insulted honor. Go
to t1ght-if needs be, to fall"

A Shocking Mishap.

In Atlanta, Sunday, before day, private
Smith, of Company E, Eighteenth Infantry,
while returning to the barracks, perfectly
sober, fell into dry well twenty-five feet,
and was empaled by stake at the bottom.
He suffered thus four-and-a-half-ho hours,
when his cries were heard and he was
pulled out by his comrades. He may pos
sibly live, but he is ruined as man. The
stake penetrated his groin eight inches.
