'LANCASTER HABCU 9, 1868. AbeHt Which All May Agree. There Is. probably, no difference of epin- S& inn nmencp the observers of the cenflagra- n'i'tten last evening, as te the efficiency of the direction of the. Are organization, ir, was net efficient. The fire could readily have been prevented from extending through "tee Kepler building. The water was net put upon the fire with sufficient speed, nor was it directed wisely. There was no wind te spread the flames ; and that was a very fortunate thing, Indeed. The Are swept threunh the Kepler building simply be- cause it was net fought en its way, until It had achieved a mastery which carried it .through the whole length of the building. The water should have been taken in from the North Queen street side promptly. If it had been where it should have been, but little damage would have been done te the Kepler building. The chief engineer of the fire department worked with zeal but without sufficient discretion. He did as well as he knew hew, but he did net knew hew. The responsi bility for the damage rests net se much upon him as upon these who elected him te his place, knowing him te be without due experience and without great marked aptitude for the place for which he asked their votes. They displaced a chief who had such experience and who had manifested an aptltude for his place that was recognized en all hands. It was net denied by anyone that Mr.IIewell was the right man in the right place, barr ing his politics. It was only because Mr. Hewell was a Democrat that Mr. Von Ven ' dersmith was given his position. Mr. Von Ven dersmlth'fl friends may have thought that, as he was active and intelligent, he' would develop into as geed a chief as Mr. Hewell. If se they can hardly new take much credit te themselves for their per spicacity. Mr. 'Vendersmith has shown In a very clear way that it is net ever' man of ordinary activity and intelligence who is capable of managing a fire. There are very marked characteristics needed. A fire chief needs activity, Intelligence, ex perience, decision, quickness, self-possession and sound judgment in the varying situations in which he is placed which de mand the utmost promptitude of apprehen sion and action. Mr. Yendersmlth had a severe trial last evening and Is found want ing. The necessity for replacing hlra with Mr. newell is tee clear for dispute. If the city wants the protection from fire for which it provides its fire department, it needs an efficient director of It. Mr. Vendersmith complains that he has net men enough; thatbelsshortef horses, and that his engines are net all efficient. This is probably true. The Sun engine certainly is net fitforservice, in its present condition. There should be mere engines in the department, te be held in reserve for great conflagrations. If last night had been windy, driving the sparks se that ether property would have been endangered, off from the place where these engines were working, what would bare been done, when all the engines were seeded where they steed 't There should be mere elasticity in the department. There should be prevision made for its en largement in case of necessity. The only permanent prevision needed is in the shape of engines and hose. A temporary supply of horses could be provided for an emergency from the public stables; and additional firemen could be readily employed for an occasion, if authority was given the chief te enlarge his force whenever temporarily necessary. Put a man in as chief who Is worthy of confidence and give him power in an emergency te provide the force needed te meet it. The city has the man. It is net Mr. Vendersmith. It is Mr. Hewell. Of this there can be no con tradiction. Mr. Vendersmith is intelligent enough te see it and te resign. The Reaction. We can readily believe that there is, as ..reported, an increasing public sentiment in Delaware county that a mistake has been made in the conviction for murder in the first degree of Sam Jehnsen, the negre under judgment of death for killing Sharp lets. It Is true that his crime is of that degree most likely, if he was the slayer of this old man ; but it Is equally true that a prisoner, en trial for his life, la entitled te the benefit et every reasonable doubt, nnd the law contemplates greater scrutiny et the evidence and mere cenvincing-testi- ' meny te convict in capital cases than in ordinary trials. ,.$i, The mere this cats Is examined, in this v 'V$ Ttew, the flimsier the evidence seems te be. . jk is ail vague, lnaenniw ana uncertain. It J- te assumed that the man whom the women "V- taw was the murderer ; and yet upon this ;;, ttwery Jehnsen was net identified. It Is ;'u;Miumedhewasablackman, and yet the V Uttlmeny which the victim left was that ,5 ,1m Was a white'man. It is assumed that ttM Motive was plunder, and yet no signs . M roery ceuujuipmieu eruiiempiea were Smb. It ie assumed that the man who jpaUtd prematurely for anewspaper with an aeeeuuv P lu mkgeuy, wtu me uuiuer or ; for It Is asked, hew else could he have kaMraefit?" All through the trial and Marietlen runs this vice, that the pris- muat be gumy because no one -if bewR te be; be ut have been at the scene of the murder en the nigbt of It because he cannot show where he was. This is fearful reasoning upon Which tebate ft conviction for murder. We aw jtkd te leam that nine persons nnt-ef ten in Delaware ceuntv think the Wrttet' Is a mistake. AVe feared werse things of the community ; we hope- for better than that this verdict will be allowed te stand. Mr. Dentellc Answered. We trust that the Kight Honorable Charles A. Beutclle, of Maine, is satislied. He is the bumptious member of Congress who insisted some time age in the Heuse of Representatives upon having an investi gation of the charge his charge that cer tain honorable inscriptions upon cannon captured by the United States and placed in the Norfolk yards were obliterated by order of Commedore Truxton. The pur pose of the Inquiry was obvieu. It waSj after the old fashion practiced se often by Blaine, of Boutelle's state, calculated and intended te " fire the Northern heart," te excite partisan and sectional debate te make small capital for Beutclle. The Democratspremptly passed the reso lution ; Commedore Truxton promptly an swers the inquiry. We hope Ueutelte is satisfied. It appears no such obliteration has taken place. The exposure from the weather and time had somewhat obliterated the in scriptions, but they were renewed by Truxton's order last Jure, and are new plainly visible. The only inscription that ever was en the dry deck Is still there. This inscription simply gives the daw the structure was commenced and ttie names of President Jehn Quincy Adams, his cabi net and the eugineer in charge at the time. But something mere than this appear. It is disclosed that a man named Lyens, once superintendent of machinery in the place, was removed by the new com mandant for the prostitution of ills place te partisan service. This fellow with out any authority had taken down an in scription from a brick building 150 feet from the dry deck, containing the name of Its builder, and in its place another was substituted, Inscribed: "Destroyed by the Rebels in 1S02. Rebuilt by the United States government in 1S63. J. V. Living ston, commandant; "V. II. Lyens, superin tendent of machinery." rinding this te have been done by Lyens, simply for his own glorification, Commedore Truxton had It displaced, and Lyens applied for it, sta ting that, as he had erected it en his own responsibility and paid for it, it washis private-peoiieitj. In order that there may be no doubt as te the kind of man Lyens is, and ills char acter before the war and during it, Com Com eodore Truxton reports that he published the following card te the citizens of Nor folk, Va., in June, 1S01 : "Te the Public; I, William II. Lyens, having been cbarged with disloyalty te the Southern Confederacy, proclaim myself as geed a Southerner as any man In the Seuth, and am doing as much te destroy the Inva ders as any man in tne neiu ; ami n any one will come te the Atlantic Iren work I will show thorn my work, which are mere than words, and will de all In my power te pro pre pro ineto the lndnpeudence of the Southern states. (Signed), ' XV. II. Lyens, ' Foreman Atlantic Works.' " This is the scalawag whoso"superservico wheso"superservico whose"superservico able zeal te Ingratiate himself with ills party is the inciting motive of Boutelle's revolution, and who was expected te fur nish the evidence te justify It- The truth Is evidently enough te satisfy him. It is te be hoped Beutclle is satisfied. Ciiikp Bi'xaM:ii VeNunnsMiTii is en the list. ATTenxnv GnNnnAL Garland says be gave no mich opinion as was reported, te the eflect that tbe president could net reappoint nominees whom the Senate bad net acted en. Of coiirse he did net.

It was ills seed leaf that Mr. Hear sold at the above figures. He has net yet sold Ids Havana seed. The waits of old tobacco ('S3-'SI) amounted te 200 or 300 cases. Sales of ether crops may swell the total te 600 cases. The amount of old tobacco in tbe L-incaster warehouses Is much less tban is generally Biippejed. Ttie Netr Yurk Market. Frem the U. i. Tobacco Journal. The market has been mederately active, mainly In what is termed "job tlets." Dealers have gradually adapted themselves te the situation, and Instead of relying upon fortune in a new crop, buy odds and ends, farmers packings, speculators' accumula tions, etc., and sell them off at once or shortly in the market, with mero or less pre lit. The situation is an absolutely settled one. Thore is a steady, if net growing demand for line wrappers and a total disinclining toward common wrapjeni except at less than binders priets. Fer years past a mero dis tluct pbase did net exist in the condition of the leaf trade. The attitude of the packers toward the 'S3 crop is sound and commer cial. Binders and geed tillers will be sure or sale, while wrappers, no matter hew tine they may be in appearance new, carry in themseies the usual risk ; consequently the purchases that are belug made new are made en this basis and legitimate profits will be the result. And by this time the leal trade or New Yerk city has made up its mind that any agitation or an increase in duty en Suma tra will only disturb the new legitimate state et the leaf market, and with the exception of a few professional friends of farmers the dealers In leaf in the New Yerk market rather see a low than a high duty en Suma tra. Quite a speculative movement is going en In tillers which are getting very scarce. The demand for expert goods continues, but unless better prices nre ollered, holders of sultable tobacco will net sell. The ltSI Wis consin, which has been steadily declining in price since lat lull, soems te have reached a level at last, and better inquiry for the Hteck exists new. it is beginning te be loved for Its " binder " virtues. Lets containing a sufficiency of such, average from 12 te 14 cents. Such tobaccos were held last summer and fall at IS te 23 cents. The quotations are : Fine wrappers, 25 te 40 cents. Lew wramwrs, 8 te 15 cents. Geed te tine binders, seconds, eta, 12 te 20 cents. Lew binders, 7 te 8 cents. Flimsy tillers, 6 te 7 cents. Coarse, thick bllers, 10 te 17 cents. Sumatra. The difficulty of withdrawing goods from bend that are still entitled te a duty of 35 cents, and the difficulty lu adjust ing the demand for flue goods te an increased figure en account el the fixed duty of 75 cents. retards operations considerably, and business was greatly restricted this week resulting lu sales reaching about 150 bales.
