THE CoSyrE9ucy OF Mas AND S1TuRs. -
a remarkably beautiful planetary display was
visible in the heavens Saturday night, Mars
and Saturn being in conjunction, apparently
so close together that one seemed almost
blended in the other, or as single planet.
Though 10 the naked eye apparently so close,
Saturn being about nine hundred million
miles from the sun, and Mars only about one
hundred and forty three millions, they were
really apart the moderate distance OF about
seven hundred and ffiy-seven millions Of
miles. Mars is moving at the speed Of fifty.
three thousand miles an hour, aud Saturn
travelling in his orbit tweply-one thousand
milesn the same time. Thus Mars being
nearest 10 our earth makes him gain in his
progress npon Saturn, and widen the distance
nightly. Whilst this phenomenon was visi.
Bile, early in the evening, Venus and Jupiter
could be seen sinking IN the west, also appa-
rently proximating each other.

The Pittsb,t,'g Riots.
SPECIAL PREsENTMENT BY THE ALE
GHENY COUNTY GRAND JURY.

PITTsBURG, Nov. 19.-The grand jury,
which has been investigating the riots Of
July last IN this city, and of which JAS. Z.
Barr, ESQ.,, Of the Post, is foreman, made a
special presentment to the court this morn
ing, giving tie result of their inquiries.
Tie document is very lengthy, and gives a
detailed history of the events preceding
ana subsequent to the acts of violence.
1t SAYS the grand jury have been unable
TO trace the proclamation calling out the
ttate troops further than to the authorities
of the Penpsy lvania railroad, and assert at
the time it was issued Cover nor Hartranft
was slumbering in his car IN Utah territory.
They assert that the railroad, officers were
importuned hot to resort to harsh measures,
but the advice was not needed. They
stated that the testimony is conclusive tn a {
Philadelphia soldiers fired without OF ders
after a pistol shot from the crowd and de
nOuncc the act by which twenty-five citi-
zens we're killed as unaut horned, wiifuI
and wanton killing, which can be called by
no milder tenn than murder. They say
the whole military operation was blunder
from beginning to end, and exhibited a
pitiable absence of training and executive
ability worthy of a ccmmander-in-ollief W 10
selects ma jor generals for their political OF
social rather than their military qialifica-
tions
characterize as a lamentable mistake, an d
the retreat of General Brinton's forces, and
the fleeing Of The state officials TO Beaver,
are severely criticised. The grand juIy
claims that the citizens after being basely
deserted by the military put down the riot
and res ored order, and the subsequent
military occupation Of the city long after
all danger had passed, Was intended as a
threat to the citizens and a mark Of con-
tumely to the county. They say the mar
tial achievements under the lead 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 criticized for massing cars here
when they knew Interruptions existed, and
the preseDtment reflects severely npou 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 it's inquiry by those
to whom the whole truth should have been
welcome vindication. Its suppression
compels the opposite conclusion. The doc
ument throughout is very bitter in tone,
and while it deuOunces the leaders of the
military, endeavors to defend the citizens
against the charge of being in sympathy
with the rioters.
