Exciting Scene in a Ball Room. —On
Monday evening, at the Turner's liaison Third
Street above Willow, an accident occurred during
the progress of n b>t]l. While the dance was going
on the gauze surroundings of one of the chande
liers took fire and fell to the floor. Several ladies
who were dressed in light clothing were in immi
nent danger of taking fire, but they quickly re
tired to one side of the room, and the gentlemen
present promptly subdued the flames. Considera
ble consternation prevailed in the room for a few
moments, and an alarm of fire was created in the
but happily* no ( person wag injured or any
material damage occasioned. This accident might
have been as serious as that at the Continental
Theatre, but for the presence of mind of the ladies
and the promptitude of the gentloinen.

The Cincinnati Gazette says, in relation to a
charge made in a New York paper, that the State
IBank of Indiana and the Bank of the Ohio Valley
’intend driving the Government demand notes home
•for redemption:
We are authorized to aay that the reference to
■the Ohio Valley Bank is without the shadow of
■foundation in foot. Indeed, so far as known, there
hae’heen but » single bill of the demand notes in
■Cincinnati, and that is still here. Where the
•“West” is, therefore, that they “come” from,
it is difficult to imagine, for we presume the
notes will appear here as soon as at any other
point in this section of country. We may say,
further, that the Valley Bank has done more,
in proportion to its capital, to aid the Govern
ment than any banking institution in the coun
try, and the charge, therefore, does great injustice
to its liberal and patriotic managers. As for the
Bank of the State of Indiana, we learn that it is its
intention to treat the Treasury notes as other cur
rency, and this policy will be adopted, we doubt
not, throughout. The paper will be subject to the
laws of trade, and when the issues perform their
functions they will be returned, and not before. If
the Government expects anything better than this
it will be disappointed. Anything worse need not
be apprehended. There will be no combination or
special effort to crowd the notes home. On the con
trary, they will constitute a favorite circulating
medium with both the people and the banks.
The New York Evening Poet says of money
and stocks in that city to-day :
The Stock Exchange opens to-day with renewed
heaviness, extending to every department of the
list. The rise in foreign exchange and the discus
sion of the unmercantUe causes which have led to
it, together with the less favorable look of military
affairs in the Western Department, produce a feel
ing of dissatisfaction and uneasiness. The disturb
ance in money, growing outof the heavy operations
of the Sub-Treasury, also exerts an influence, as
the active shifting of loans forces some stock on the
market.
There was considerable animation in Missouri
€e, at a decline of A per cent. They clo3e 42| bid.
42f asked. Tennessees leave off 42£a43, which is
also 4 per cent. lower. The other Southern issues
were rather better.
At the close there is a better feeling, with more
inquiry for stocks at the decline. New York Ccn
trsd 72fa72i, Toledo 29i«29i, Galena 69&69i, Rock
jslasd 42§a42£.
Money is in good demand to-day at 6 per cent,
on call. Transactions are reported at 6]a7. butfi
Id the ruling rate of the market. Prime paper is
quoted at 7 per cent., with occasional sales at 6a6a
for choice bills.
The disbursements of the Sub-Treasury towards
the close of the week will be very heavy, greatly
to the relief of the banks. After the experience
of the past ten days the Treasury Department will
be able to conduct its operations, hereafter, so as
not to put an other strain upon the banks like that
of last week.
The operations of the New York Sub-Treasury
last week, exclusive of the business of the Assay
office, amounted to $22,000,000, which is extraordi
narily large, and it is not surprising that some dis
turbance m the money market followed.
Exchange closes very dull for the Boston steamer

Since the introduction of coal oils has become general
for lighting purposes, its qualities, merits, and demerits
are a matter of public interest. The economical view
at this time, when burning fluids and other liquids of
that class arc greatly advanced in cost, is itself an im
portant one; but there are also considerations of safety
connected with the subject of coal oils, iu which not only
consumers, but the community at large, are vitally in
terested. The explosiveness of those oils having become
a theme of newspaper comment and discussion, wo hero
propose submitting to our readers tho fads in the case,
as we have obtained them, both from what wc doom vc
lialdc authority and actual experiment.
By way of explanation, we ought to state in advance
that the term'“Kerosene,” which is now almust univer
sally applied to these oils, is a misnomer, except when
applied to those manufactured either by the Portland
Company, Portland, Maine, or the Downer Company, at
Boston, the term “ Kerosene ” being simply the trade
mark of the oils manufactured by these two companies.
The latter are produced solely from the Albert coal taken
from mines in Nova Scotia, which are.controlled entirely
by the alKtvc-iinmcd companies. The nature of these
(kerosene) oils is that they are almost as colorless as
water, and nearly as free from odor, produce a pure,
brilliant, white light, aud for all practicable lighting
purposes oro absolutely non-explosive. Of course, they
can he subjected to n ihmgmiuri dcirrce of temperature,
just ns water may he rendered destructive by being
heated into steam * but so uninflammable are they that
danger in their ordinary use is Impossible.
Persons who have read accounts of accidents from the
use of “Kerosene” oils may be at a loss to reconcile this
apparent contradiction. The fact, however, is, that, in
every accident recorded* so far as wo have been able to
ascertain, both in this city and elsewhere, the oil em
ployed was not the Portland, or genuine Kerosene oil,
but the commonest coal or Petroleum oil, which is highly
inflammable, and liable to explode, from the presence of
naptha or benzine retained in them in order to improve
their appearance and lessen their specific gravity. This,
then, appears to be tho true state of the case: Persons
using the Portland oil can do so witli perfect assurance
of safety j wliilst the burning of any other is dangerous.
For the consumer to avoid imposition in purchasing we
have no definite formula, although tho application of a
lighted match to a small quantity of the genuine and
spurious oils, poured upon a smooth board, will demon
strate their wide difference in point of inflammability.
Honorable dealers, of course, would not deceive their
patrons asking for the “ Portland oil” by selling them
the inferior imitations, so that a good safeguard will bo
to ask for the Portland oil in making purchases. The
latter is kept by most dealers, we believe, the sole whole
sale agents for it being Messrs. Z. Locke & Go., No. 1010
Market street, whose canl appears in another column. The
supply of this superior oil, we understand, is adequate to
the largest full and winter demand, and the fact that it
has been much reduced in price will at this time not be
its least recommendation to popular favor.
HOW IT BAS OPERATED,
That tho present unsettled state oftlic nation has result*
cd disastrously to the business interests of inany of our
merchants is unquestionable, although it has by no means
paralyzed the energy and enterprise of all. In some of the
departments of trade a large proportion of houses licreto
fore actively engaged in them have had to succumb, leaving
a comparatively clear field to those who are left in a vi
gorous solvent condition. For this reason we have not a
few leading establishments that will do very nearly, if not
quite, their usual amount of trade this fall, ami tlrat too
on a more profitable basis. Prominent among this for
tunate class is the house of Thomas Mellor k Co., Nos.
40 and 42 North Third street, one of our oldest and
wealthiest importing and jobbing houses engaged in the
Hosiery trade. Their magnificent largo wareruoms, now
stocked to repletion with their fall importations of ho
siery, underclothing, zephyr goods, linens and wlrftc
goods, and everything embraced under tho head of uo
tiims and fancy goods, present at tin's time the refresh
ing spectacle of a live business house, and we are much
mistaken if the autnmn of 1861 docs not prove to them a
highly successful season.
The Note op Preparation.— A great bat
tie is impending at Washington, and the note of prepara
tion is sounded upon all sides. All along the lines “ the
hunt of either army stilly sounds, and the pickets almost
receive the secret -whispers o! each other’s watch.”
Farther on serried hosts are aiming for the fray ; whjlo
yet further from the line of impending battle, troips
and munitions are hurrying forward. Hero, in our
own midst, we have a regiment or two of tailors con
stantly employed in making up elegant and substantial
uniforms for the soldiers, at the Brown Stone Clothing
Hall of Rockhill & Wilson, Nos. 603 and 605 Chestnut
Btreet, above Sixth.
"Washington to be Attacked.—lt is stated
that three contrabands escaped from the vicinity of
Fairfax Couit House, a few days since, and made their
way into Washington. They report that an attack is to
be made on that city some time during this week; but
our friends need not be alarmed* however, as that city is
; perfectly safe, and in the meantime wo advise them to
visit the Mammoth Gift Military and Civic Clothing Em
porium of Granville Stokes, 609 Chestnut street, and
there procure for themselves a handsome fall suit. A
splendid assortment of fall aud winter clothiug is now
being laid iu, and with each sale a useful and ornamental
gift is presented.
