A CHANCE FOR THE ROPE,

Information having come to Sergeant
Wbelan that William Scott, the william who
outraged Miss Foreacre, near the Mermaid,
in Mill Creek Hundred, few weeks ago
'was working and living at Sixth and South
streets, Philadelphia, went up to capture
him If possible and bring him to this city.
By the aid of another person who said he
knew Scott, the latter was called out and
the Sergeant Immediately took him into
custody and brought him down in the half.
pact ten train, and he is now confined in
the cells at the hall. He denied any knowl-
edge of the matter, and said that his name
was Cha-les Fortner.
The Sergeant promptly went to the Mer-
maid to bring Miss Foreacre in, when the
question Of identity will be fully settled.
1t will be remembered that Bill Dennis.
who committed like offence, for which be
was hanged, few years ago, after escaping

closely to the description of the escaped
felon.

IN HIGH FEATHER.

John Fehrenbach's saloon, Fourth and
French, was in full blast last night. He
had received word about o'clock, that the
Court had reconsidered the refusal to license
his house, and he Immediately, with his big
heart, opened up his place, and gave an
abundant treat. Last night every member
of Council, save two, went to pay their
compliments to Eye merrie host" and John
WAS not backward in receiving them. The
modern joviality of the Teuton regulated
the fun of the evening. More than one
prominent citizen became deeply imbued
with German metaphysics, by 10 O'Clock.
We are pleased to note the fact of Mr.. F.
getting license-to refuse It was mistake

LECTURE OF GEN. BANKS.

Last night, at the Opera House, General
Banks lectured to rather slim audience
The subject was the "Town we Live in,'
and enabled the lecturer to give great scope
to his discourse. MIR. Banks is an excel
lent speaker, using very choice and express
siVe English, and for one with the Puritan
kink-a liberal man. He rapidly surveyed
the growth of the Ancient Cities of the
World, stopping at that of Rome, and at
over"leaping. the really vital period of mu-
nicipal growth-the middle ages. He 10.
sinuated that we owe our municipal system
to New England, which we all know is not
the fact.
Mr.. Banks made some curious mistakes
one that in certain town in England, ou,
of a criminal population of 5000, only 2H
per cent. were illiterate-we refer him to
Hausard contaioing the last Register Gen
eral report, which shows that the lowest
per centage is that of Oxford, which is SO
per cent. of persons who could read and
write.
Another was bis statement that 10 France
was limited the observance of All Saints
day-it Is simply universal in CATHOLIC com.
munities well recognized day of devotion
here in the town we live in. His strong anu
manly appeals for public cheerfulness, and
sports, as also moderation in the impression
and enforcement of public opinion, was able
and we'll timed. We regret the Providen'
Society are not likely to benefit largely by
The lecture.

GASOLINE STREET LAMPS.

The Baltimore Gasoline Street Lamp
Company are endeavoriug to induce our city
to adopt their lamp for Illuminating ser~
vices. Two lamps have been placed on ex-
-hibition in this city, one at the City Hall,
and the other on King street, below Third.
They claim that the light produced is equal
to the best of gas, and far superior to that
with which our city is illuminated. The
lamps are already in use in New York, Bal
timore, Trenton, Jersey City, and other
places.

SHIPBUILDlNG NOTES.
WORK AT RoACH's AND HARLAN AND Ho1,
LINGswoRTH's co.'s YARDS.

The amount of work going on at Roach's
shipyards at Chester is marvellous. The
steamship Oregon, launched a few weeks
ago, is being supplied with machinery two
new vessels are nearly in frame; a new
Government dry dock is being constructed
and, beside the order for five vessels inten-
ded for the Brazilian line, a contract has
just been consunmated for the building OF
two more large vessels, to run between New
York and Brazil, one of which will b,
launched early In the Few year. Senor
Mendonca, who has recently arrived in this
country from Brazil, states that two days
prior to bis leaving that coutry, the Brazil.
iau Cabinet decided at q special meeting to
grant subsidy to the Messrs. Roach, Of
100000 annually, for ten years, for a line
steamers between the two countries. The
workmen number about 1,40O, and are
working nine hours day instead of eight,
and the prospect of . long period of pros
perity to the workmen is very good.
At the Harlan g. Hollingsworth Compa-
ny's works, in this city; the work on tie
new Cape Mays excursion st Gamer is stsa-
Oily progressing and ABOUT two,thirds of
the frame are in place. The two sets Of
engines and boilers for the Oregon Steam
Navigation Company are being rapidly
pushed toward completion, and will likely
be ready ior shipment somtime in January.
Abont Thursday or Friday of next week.
this company will ship a new stationary
engine just being finished, to DR.. Thomas
Rainney, of Rio de ia neiro, Brazil. This
engine, which will be used by the Doctor on
his Brazilian plantation, has 20 inch cyl
ihder of 8 feet stroke, and Will be forwarded
to Philadelphia by'rail, and reshipped thence
to South America.
The company have also lately received an
