Several assault cases were dispored of in Judge Miller's court today, the cases presenting a va- | riety of circumstances. In one case two cl | dren and their father and the mother and sister of another child figured. On one side Mr. Samuel Sondheimer and his two young sons, | Mra. Pauline Helmuth aud ber daughter Mary Were prosecuting witnesses. A game of mar- bles between boys started the trouble and Mrs. Heimuth figured therein. It was stated that | she used her foot on one of the Sondheimer boys and for that reason his father would not correct him. He struck Mre. Helmuth with « stick in bis own defense. Mrs Heimuth was not satisfied with such an ending of the affair and in the evening she called at the house of Mr. Sondheimer and a scene followed. After hearing the proof in the case Jud, Miller ssid he was glad that the weather would soon be too cold for boys to play in the street, and then the number of these cases will de- crease. “It was e clean-cut fight,” remarked the court, “‘and the cases are dismissed.” Miss Helmuth began to cry and complain that she had not been treated properly, and her mother became excited; said she had ‘not been given justice. She refused to leave the court =~, and Bailiff Hooe bad to assist her to the Abraham Jones, colored man with a pecu- liarly shaped head, appeared in the dock after a year's but the fudge recognized him d wanted to know how long he had been out. ‘Not very long,” was his response. é There were two cl against him, and in each case it was alleged he at- tempted to use a knife. Acolored man named Slaughter was first assaulted by him, and when Policeman Russell captured him after a long chase he attempted to use the knife on him. “Have you anything to say about this?” “Well, judge,” answered Jones,'I came home from jail with the chills and I took some red pepper and whisky and lay down on the sofa. fon t remember what happened after that un- til I found myself in the station house.” “You won't drink any more whisky and red pepper for some time,” said Judge Miller, and then be sentenced Abe to sixteen months in Jail.

A Permit for the Placing of a Double Track in South Washington. Some days ago the Pennsylvania Railroad | | Company requested the Commissioners to iasue ‘permit allowing the company to double track its road from 133¢ street to the Long bridge. | | The matter was sent to the assistant attorn for the District, Mr. S$. T. Thomas, and today | | upon his favorabJe opinion the Commissioners | granted the permit. The permit, however, is, ‘conditional. It provides that it is subject to) the will of the Commissioners and to future |iegislation. As the opinion of the assistant | attorney is of considerable interest it is given | at length. f Ihave catefully examined the statutes re- | lating to the Baltimore and Potomac Company | ‘and am of opinion it has the Jegal right to lay the tracks proposed. All the tracks except the west main track are already down as I under- | stand it, and it is only proposed now to change | their positions slightly. ‘Tho west track shown on the map, extending from 13th street to Long bridge, is the only new or additional one. The putting in of this additional track will complete the double track of this company on Maryland avenue from 13th street to Long bridge. It ix of very great importance that thie miditional track be laid, not only for the gene:al business of the several railroad companics over it, but to the citizens of that neighborhood, since by | by having two tracks at this point it will not only obviate the necessity of trains of freight | cars standing there, which has always been an | inconvenience and annoyance, but it will ma- tevially reduce the chance of accidents due to the operation of single track roads. The cher- ter granted the Baltimore and Potomac Rail- rond Company by the state of Maryland in 1853 authorized it to build a railroad from Balti- more to a point on the Potomac river, to be selected by the president and directors of the | company. The charter provided that the road when completed stould not be more than sixty- six feet wide, except ator near the stations, where the width might begreater, with as many tracks aa the president and directors may deem necessary, &c. Congress in 1867 authorized the Baltimore and Potomse company to ex- tend its road into this District and ‘to ex- ercive the same powers, rights and privi- leges, and to be subject "to the exme re- strictions, in the extension and constrnc- tion of ‘said lateral railroad into and within said District, as it may exercise or is eubject to or act of 7 the act of March 18, 1869, it was authorized by Congresa to extend the road upon either of the two designated routes to the intersection of C and 9th streets south- west.

OBJECTIONS TO FIRES AT THE DUMP. A delegation of citizens representing resi- dents of that section of the town east of Mont- gomery and south of N street will call on the Commissioners in afew days to formally pro- test against the maintaining of fires on the dumps near Kock creek. All during the past year the police have permitted the daily burn- ing of the rubbish dumped there, and residents complain that as soon as the afiernoon comes on the black, foul-smelling and sickening smoke overspreads the neighborhood for often six Squares around. Even over in Washington as far cast as 24th street the odor is often pt ible. Many of the residents of the vic! nity may that if the wind happens to be blowing a little they find it most unpleasant to raise their win- dows and are thereby still more greatly an- noyed by the nuisance. They think that if the kindling of these fires cannot be stopped by any other means a policeman should be daily stationed there to prevent it.

Prof. Briggs’ Case Postponed. ‘The New York presbytery, in compliance with the order of the general assembly, which convened in Portland, Ore., last May, began yesterday afternoon in the Scotch Presbyterian Church in New York a second trial of Prof. Charles A. Briggs of Union Theological Sem- inary on the charge of heresy. In accordance with a letter received by Dr. Wylie, pastor of the church, this morning from Dr. Briggs afew chairs were set apart in the church gallery for Mrs. Briggs and a number of other immediate friends of the family.

The returns of the American elections were received in London yesterday too late for the papers to comment on the result. The Pail Mail Gazette publishes abrief note, saying that both the mercbants and the unem- ployed workingmen of England have reason to rejoice at the democratic victory. With the possibility of the reopening of the American markets to the goods of Birmingham, Bradford and Manchester, capitalists will get a chance to procure some return on their money invested, and the workingmen will have an opportunity to get a decent price for their labur without the necessity of striking.

A gly — BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE. lectric Needle ona Man's Heart Revived Him. | A man whose appearance suggested that denth had seized him was in the hands of a physician of Providence, R. I., who believed that a chance for life remained, and that if the action of the heart could be quickened it might be possible to save this patierit. Yet every remedy known to medical ecience had been applied and with- out success. The physician was sure that al- though not the slightest symptom of heart beat | could be detected and that organ seemed per- fectly still yet life had not so completely de- parted as to make renewed action impossible. ‘The physician therefore decided to attempt a desperate remedy. He determined to pierce | the man’s heart with a needle and then apply | an agent whose power is recognized by the | medical profession, but whose use is yet to be | well understood. The surgeon, therefore, selecting a small | needle, not larger than a hair, very eharp, at- tached it to a wire connecting with an electric batters, With precision of band. the surgeon thrust this needle into the patient's breast, pressing it until it punctured the heart. The | patient was unconscious; be felt no pain, and if had been sensitive the pang would have been | no greater torture than the prick of a needle | gives. |The electric current was then applied, | e surgeon listening with intensest emotion for he had zeal for his patient and also the en thusiasm of science. For a little while it seemed as though this remedy must fail, but, after a little, the experienced ear of the sur- goon detected the faintest of pulmations, and as | e current of electricity continned its passage through the heart, that organ, whose fibers were but a continuation of the electric needle, re- wponded, began again to beatand send’ the blood coursing through the veins, and after a | little the patient operied is eyes and was alive | again. Never had science brought back one #0 | near death's door as this man was, and the joy | of the surgeon in saving his patient's life was | almost equaled by that delight which the true | scientist experiences when he has made # dis- covery of material value. This is regnrded as perhaps the most import- ant, asitisthe most sensational, of all the cases reported to that infant association which is called the Flectro-Therapeutical Society, an association which some of the ablest electrical experts, as well as some of the most brilliant men in the medical profession, believo will in the course of a few years develop the use of | electricity as a medical agent with the accuracy and seientitic precision which the nee of drugs This society has just had its second annwual | meeting: 150 men, coining trom all parts of the United States, were present. Some of them are medical mon of scientific knowledfe, who have experimented with electric | tounding results, have reduced experi- |ments to something like scienti Others are medical practitioners who do not | yposress an expert knowledge of electreity, but whohave a strong faith in ite use as a medical Among the ablest of the men prevent J.

An attempt to blow up a non-union boarding | houre in the suburbs of Sharpsburg, Pa., was | made rbortly after 3 o'clock yesterday morn- ing. A dynamite bomb was thrown in at an upper window, and a terrificexplosion followed. A bole four feet equare was torn in the side of the house, and several window frames and sills were blown out and fell in ap adjoining yard, while every window in the building was shat- tered. The room into which the bomb was thrown was occupied by Mra. Merely, the landlady. Mrs. Morely when found was lying amid the wreck of the bedstead unconscious and covered with fallen lester. She was removed to a neighboring ovse, and it was only after half an hour's hard work that she was restored to consciousness, The boarders, who are employed in the Carne- gio mills, escaped with « few slight brnises. vee HUNGARY'S WwW CABINET, the Moderate Opposition to Ke the Premier.
