FATAL SAM PATCH LEAP.
A Man Jumps from the Mast of a Vessel
and Is Drowned.
A number of men were bathing In the East
river, In the vicinity of J. R. Robins' dock,
Bouth Brooklyn, about hull-past four o'clock
yesterday afternoon, when an argument arose
between two of the parly as to which of them
could Jump from the highest point. To de
cide the question under debate a man
named John Wade and another person,
whose name was. not ascertained, went
alolt on the schooner C. S. Johnson, which
was lying alongside the dock. Both the
men were stripped at the time, and getting out
on the cross-trees of the mainmast, they looked
down and inquired how many feet of water
there was. Mr. Seth Roblts, who was standing
on the deck of the vessel, replied that there was
not more than twelve feet, and told them not
to jump, that there wns not sufficient water to
attemm such a feat. The height or the cross
trees of the vessel was between sixty-five and
seventy feet. Another Individual, on the dock,
cried out that there was only ten feet of water,
and urged the men aloft to desist from so fool
hardy an undertaking. Bat not heeding the
warning voices below, Wade made the fatal
spring, and descended with great velocity, feet
foremost through the air, while all present held
their breath In terror of the result. Striking the
water on his belly, with great force, the modern
Bam Patch disappeared. A minute elapsed, and
yet there was no sign of his coming to the sur
face. Mr. Robins directed two of his men to
push oil in a boat and grapple for the man, who
had evidently stuck fast in the muddy bottom
of the river. They sue ceedeU once or twlc6 ia
partially moving the body with the hook,
but they could not get a sufficient hold to bring
It to the surface. Nearly fifteen minutes elapsed
In these unsuccessful exertions to recover the
body, when a boy named Simmons came for
ward, and, lowering himself to the bottom, re
taining hold of the grappling pole held by the
men in the boat, he managed to grasp the arm
of the man, and thus they were both hauled
into the boat. On being taken ashore every
means possible was made to resuscitate Mr.
Wade, but all to no purpose, he had ceased to
exist. The deceased was a watchman in the
employ of the Revenue Department, about
twenty-five years ot age, and resided in Veran
dah place, near Henry street. He leaves a wife
and two or three children. His remains were
conveyed to his late resldenoe.and the Coroner
notified. The man who weut up the rigging
with him asserts that he advised him not to
undertake the Jump, the height being too
great. It Is said there Is evidence of bis having
been drinking, which, if so, goes to account for
the raah act.
Chase and Ills Calumniators.

among our pertional Items to the ellect that Mr. Clause

political friend ol the late Secretary of the Treasury,

story la utterly without foundation, lie assures us,
and on authority that cannot be questioned, tbat tbe
limited private means ot the Chief Justice are now
about the same as tbey were wben he was appointed
to tbe Treasury, and tbat tbese means, although tbe

value lor the purpose of livlug than tbeu, which is a

AMUSEMENTS.
The Walnut Opening Last Kioitf.
Perhaps the Walnut Street Theatre, In all its
glorious history, never had a larger or more
fashionable audience crowded within its walls
than that mass of humanity filling it to lis
utmost capacity last evening. It was esti
mated that about twenty-five hundred people
witnessed ShukcKpeare's fairy spectacle, of
whom nearly two thousand were seated, A
Midxummer Night's Dream was never so mag
nificently presented here before.
The management seem to have exceeded
their promises of stage splendor and sconlc
effects, and this will be an acknowledged merit.
We have no time to go into details, but can
only say that the scenes painted by Telbln are
all wonders of art, both as to the coup and the
strength of coloring. The execution In detail
is also very flue, and the cllects are really supe
rior. The play wns well cast, and all the artistes
succeeded admirably. The acting of Chapman,
Fawcett, Gomersul, Ballcy, Johnson, aud
Marble as the six fools was exceedingly droll.
Mrs. Gomersal, ns "OVron," was very pretty,
and acted with grace and vivacity. Miss Fisher,
Miss Denln, Mrs. "William, and others were all
well received by the audience, aud gave general
satisfaction. The ballet in the piece is better
than usual ' aud was managed in good
taste. The dresses, Jewelry, and armor were
more brilliant and appropriate than any we
have ever seen. The home of "Oberon," the
panorama illustrating his voyage, and the
triple transformation scene in tho fifth act, may
be noted as the gems of 'the play, and are cer
tainly surpassingly beautiful. The muslo,
selected from Dr. Felix Mendelssohn Bar
tholdy's opera of A Midsummer Night's Dream,
has been udmlraly adapted to the play by Mr.
Simon Hassler, the chr d' orchestra of the Wal
nut, and was executed in good style.
The management of the Walnut Street
Theatre deserve ample patronage for the pi in
duction of the specluole In suou a gorgeous
manner, and with such fealty to the ideas ex
pressed by tbe Immortal author.
A Midsummer Night's Dream will be repeated
this evening, unabridged In beauty, ami will
run more smoothly, of course. Iu order to
avoid unpleasant delays and crowding, we
would advise the publio of the expediency of
securing seals a day or two in advance of the
performance they wish to witness. The man
agement have under favorable consideration
the many requests made for aiternoon perform
ances of the lairy spectacle.

WlNKKMORE A GLANCE AT A SKETCH OP lll8
Lit'K my Himsklk What lis, Says ok thk
Mukdkk and Tkial. It will be remembered
by the readers of Thk Evknino Tklkuraph,
tbat In an article detailing the religious views
and sentiments of George W. Wlnnemore, pub
lished lately, It was stated that he was preparing
a sketch of his lite for his counsel, Damon Y.
Kilgore, Esq. That sketch has been completed,
and by the kindness of Mr. Kilgore we were
permitted to make such extracts front it as
would be likely to interest our readers. In
speaking of the murder he sh.vr:
"On the arternoou of April 23, 1807, 1 left Fair
mount Park about half-punt 2 o'clock, aud pro
ceeded to the house of Mrs. Maglltou, arriving
there about 3 o'clock. After kuockiug at the
door and receiving no response. I ventured lit,
as I had been told by Mrs. Maglltou to do so iu
case she did not htar me. I went back to I lie
kitchen, and there I saw her lying upon the
floor deHd. I went back to the front door, and
fastened it, and proceeded to tbe parlor In the
bopeol finding Mr. Magllmn.and upon enter
ing tbe parlor! heard Mr. Magilton at the door.
I went Immediately and opened It, and told
him his wife was murdered. After leaving him
in tbe house, I weut fur an oQicer, aud brought
one iuto the house with mer I then, by Mr.
Magllton'a request, started for his daughter,
but was arrested before I got a square
from the house. Tbe reason of my going to the
house that afternoon was to fill an engagement
made with Mrs. Magilton In the morning. After
remaining in my cull for the first night after my
arrest, I was tuken to tho photograph gallery
of Mr. CohlU, on tbe corner of Fiftii and Ches
nut street, and bad a negative taken. I was
then taken to the Central.Statlon House, and
was placed In the company of three experts of
the Detective force, where I had to relate all
that transpired during that day, was treated
verv well, was handed a cigar of very small
dimensions, and pumped dry in the small space
of one hour, aiiuougu tuey were not uuir satis
fied with what I had related; but then, they
could not get waier out of a well when there'
was none in it. l was men taken to my ceil,
and from there was placed before a Orand Jury,
eivlng me no chance in the world to aelou.il
myself until the last witness was done giving
her testimony, and I was then Boon told to
slop. It almost drove me mad to hear the wit
nesses giving tneir testimony against me, ana
none for me. 1 was men tola mat I stood very
well under it. No wonder, when I was the
maenet. drawing the magnetism of 500.000 per
sons about me, and was the central point for all
these currents. It is a wonder it did not take
me up from their presence, and take me awuy.
1 should think this would uphold me or any
body else, even if they were weak. But it was
not altogether the mugnetlsm of these people,
It was my own pure and Innocent conscience
tbat upheld me there, and has upheld me ever
since, and will until I leave this world. During
my trial l was at times unconscious, sometimes
I would hear all the testimony given
by one or two witnesses although the whole
trial seemed to me a aream, or some ouriesque.
I did not feel tbe condition I was placed in as
anywise disagreeable. All tbe Interest I took
in the trial was when Mr. D wight. Assistant Dis
trict Attorney, spoke in closing the case. The
meaning of his words seemed to me sublime.
They did not come from his lips, but from the
very centre ol his Heart, xi seemeji so to me,
at least; for around him were many friends,
who passed away long ago both male and
female. He seemed to me as If "be (lnitlie other
world) were surrounded by friends and condi
tions of spiritual life. But as soon as he stopped,
I felt cast down again in darkness, or In a
dreamy state."
It will be remembered that in his summary
of tbe arguments and facts for the prosecution,
District Attorney Mann (pointing to winne
more) said: "See him laugh and bow his head.
He knows tbat we are groping In the dark."
Of Mr. Mann's saying tnls, aud of his own
feelings and actions at that time, V lnnemore
writes as follows:
"1 saw Mr. Mann, District Attorney of this
Commonwealth, standing with one foot on the
floor, and the other foot on the breast of a man.
His face resembled tbat of a hideous monster;
his eyes flashed tire, and in bis bands was the
Heart ol n is victim. Tnere ne sioou in a irenzv,
grasping the heart In bis teeth, while the blood
flowed down his beard and breast until he was
coveied from his mouth to his feet with the
blood of his victim, it was an awful slant to
look upon. It made my blood run oold through
my veins to look upon it. J turned my head,
and it faded from my sight. This is only one of
ainousanu ot visions mat x have seen, it
seemed as if Providence stopped me from
going West, and took me as a victim for this
murder. I believe It was for some good, or 11
would not have been. Borne great work was to
be periormed, and I was placed as a foundation
for this to be built upon. I am perfectly willing
to leave tnis earin it it win be benetlclal to
mankind, for I know that happiness awaits
me on the other side which I hardly ever lelt
or saw while on this earth. Bv mv death.
living things will spring up for the good of
mankinu. xnus tue very ones prosecuting me
in Ibis case will be benefited by these living
principles. Oladly do 1 give up this life, when
I know it win be or use to the world. As
the Saviour aiea ior a principle, so do I
He passed away long ago, but His prin
ciples live aner shd. Ana wnen 1 am
gone, I feel oonfidert these principles will live
after my exit from this world. All the satisfac
tion 1 crave irom tuis wonu is to near of my
name being proven innocent of this horrible
deed. All that I can say Is, "I am innocent of
tbls crime." 1 cannot prove it myself, but I leel
confident It Will be proven before long to tue
satisfaction of my relations and friends, and
especially to the people of this Commonwealth.
It then will show how far an innocent man's
life can be Jeopardized. If I had been guilty
there could not have been any stronger evidence
against me. I was astonished at such a chain
of evidence. "Vengeance Is mine, salth tbe
Dord, I will repay." Surely this Is coming fast
upon those who undertook to sell my life here.
I forgive them, and I hope that Ood of ills iu
finite KOoduMs will alao forgive Utuu.
West Arch Street pRFsnTTRRtAif Church.
one of the most Interesting sights ever wit
nessed in a church edifice in thU city we beheld
fa the west Arch on Sunday evening. Not
wllhk landing the heat of midsummer, and the
ahsenc ' mmy families from that vlolnlty
sorroundB H'e church, that Immense build
ing was so completely packed that hundredn of
persons were compelled to leave for other
churches or their inies. The audience was a
brlllinnt one, and every listener to the Gospel
appeared intent on all liiflt fell from tbe distin
guished clergyman' Jlpi. The sermon by Kev.
Dr. Wlllltts was oneof Ihe most powerful of that
great preacher's efforts, and Its good effects were
lelt throughout the entire congregation. The
Interest this well-known and popular divine
bus awakened since his return to Philadelphia
is not surprising at all, lor there is always a
simplicity, a naturalness, an earnestness, and
sincerity in his manner, Independent of the
instructive and excellent malter of his dis
courses, which win their way Jto the heart as
surely us pomposity, affectation, and stupidity
shut up all the avenues to the feelings.
On a former occasion we spoke rather dispara
gingly of the Nltiglnu at the West Arch, and we
are glad to know that the gallant Oovernor
who presides over the Board of Trustees, and
his colleagues, have taken our hint and reme
died this matter entirely. They have wisely
secured those excellent members of Rev. Mr.
Conklln's choir, at Tenth and Arch streets:
Mrs. Simmons (late Miss Ie Negre), as soprano;
Professor Briscoe, as tenor; and A. W. Miller, as
basso. In addition to these fine singers, the
contralto, Mrs. Simpson, and the organist, Mr.
Knlpe, are superior musicians. The muslo on
Sunday evening was exquisite, far surpassing
any belore Heard in mis cnurcu, auu iu.iy equal
to If not superior to any in the city. Bonar's
beautiful hymn, "Beyond the smiling and the
weeping," was sung by the new choir in grand
style, and with the utmost effect.
We congratulate tbe people, not only of West
Arch, but ot the city.ou Bev. Dr. Willltts' deter
mination to "stick to his pnst" during theeulire
summer, and preach every Sabbath morning
and evening. Like a good soldier, he declines
to be absent from the Held of duty, notwith
standing his people accorded him a vacation
during the whole of August.
A Beast in Human Fohm. Before Recorder
I'neu, at 10 o'clock this morning, Henry VV.
Weiidt, a reputed member of the Lutheran
Church, Superintendent of the Orphan Asylum
of tbat church, situated at Oermantown, was
nrraigued upon tbe charge of taking Improper
liberties With the children under his care.
There are many bovs and girls ranging from
infancy tin to thirteen or fourteen In the insti
tution. Wendt has been to all outward appear
ances a careiul and conscientious oflloer. He
has been recular in bis religious duties, aud
strict in their enforcement on his charge.
A short time ago Thk Evrninq Telegraph
contained an account of tbe arrest of a young
man employed in tbe Institution for purloining
some clothing. His arrest appears to have
generated all tbe trouble. About six weeks
ago the Board of Directors assembled, and the
resignation of Wendt was presented. This was
a surprise, as no reasons bad been assigned.
On making inquiry Wendt was found to hive
fled. Humors then readied the ears of the
Board of his conduct, and upon making an in
vestigation the rumors were substantiated.
It being ascertained Ibat be was In Roches
ter, a young man whs despatched to that
city with a letter for Wendt, staling that the
Board desired him to come to Philadelphia
and make some explanation. The bait took, for
It was only a trap set to get htm to this city.
He arrived at Walnut street wharf about six
o'clock yesterday afternooon. Detectives It. R.
Smith and Stevens were in waiting for hi in.
As soon as he left the boat he was arrested,
and after a preliminary hearing before the Re
corder, was locked up In tbe Central Station
for a hearing this morning, when ho was
taken to tbe magistrate's office, where a large
number of people had assembled to bear the
e'et alls of the case.
Two little girls, named Willemlna Locha-dt
and Mary Be hi, both aged fourteen, ami very
prH ty, testified In substance that Wendt had
taken improper liberties with them, we re
frain from going into details, aa they are too
disgusting, and would bring the hot blush to
tne verv temples of our readers. Toe Recorder
committed Wendt to prison In default of $j000
Dan to answer at. fourt.
A Sculmno Match on the Delaware A
Phii.adei.phian Pitted against Hamill.
We learn that the Initiatory step the deposit
ing of nart of tbe stakes have been takeu to

come to light.
Boy Drowned. Coroner Daniels held au in
qnest on the body of John Mclnlyre, a white
boy, wno was drowned at pier No. 8, Rlohmond.
From tbe evidence it appears tbat he carried
his father's dinner (who was watchman upon a
dredging machine), and while playing upon
tbe boat was struck by a crank on the head and
thrown overboard. His father made every
effort to save him, but could not reach him.
1 he body was soon afier recovered, and taken

Shall tub children of the soldiers and
sailors who gave their lives for the preserva
tion of the Union be provided with homes, and
receive a good education? This is a question
which will admit ol but one answer in the
affirmative. It only remains, therefore, for ns
to point out the best mode in which it ean be
done. A careful examination has satisfied ns,
and will satisfy the public, that the projectors
of the Riverside Institute, located in the vil
lage of Riverside, Isew Jersey, on the Delaware,
have devised the most feasible method. Acting
under tbe charter of the Washington Library
Company, Incorporated by the Stale of Pennsyl
vania, they are offering stock at tbe low rate of
one dollar per share, and will give to each sub
scriber a beautiful and valuable steel engrav
ing, worth at retail more than the price of the
stock, and as an additional inducement will
distribute among the stockholders presents
valued at $300,000. Who can refuse to do a pa
triotic and benevolent action on these terms?

LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.
important Decision on the Rights of
mortgagors.
The following fntereHilug opinion concerning the
ex lent ol a mortgagor's riKlit to dispone ol moi iijAK'tl
iropirty, wan read this morning by JuiiKe
Br!Waier:
James Wntts vs. tbe IleHonvllle, Mantua and
Fairinomit 1'aaneiiprer ltahroail Company. Brewauir.
J. Tbls Is uioliou tor special Injunction to re
strain tbe deleudaais "from taking up their rails
and stringers, or otherwise rendering tue road
URI'leHH.'
The bill Is filed by the complainant for himself,
"and lor such olbor boiidnolilors as may, by contri
buting to the expeuse of this suit, become parties
tlHTt-lo." lie avem tuat ha is tne huliler of certain
bonds of thin company to tbe amount offisou: that Die
bondaand other, amounting lo 0), Issued lltxjeiu
ber ts, 186D, are tecureit by a mortgage executed by
tbe Company lo cerluln Trustees ou tbe railway's
rails, bridges, fencea, depots, stations, eaipn;enia, in
cldetiui, rlKhtB, aud all real proueriy of every descrip.
tion belonging to Bind Company,"
'1 he blllTuriher "avers that the said railroad begins
at From street In this city, extends along Oullowhill
street to the rlvfr Schuylkill, and thence to liuston
ville that tt has been luld with rails, etc.: has been
used uuitl recently as a road for the conveyance of
pURhengera."
Ibe complainant then charges that the defendant
have "recently taken up the rails and stringers of
suld road along Callowlml street, between Frout and
Klghtb street, and that thar threaten to take up the
balance of said road aud to dlapuse of tbe materials
thereoi."
'Ibe defendants have filed affidavits. In whloh Ills
aveireO, In oppoalilon to tnls motion, tbat the necu
rity of tbe plalniltl' will not be materially impaired by
the pioposeu acllou of the defendants, that the por
tion cf the road which they are tuning up is uot self
suHtulnanle, but an expense to oilier roads of the
Company; that It would be uii Injury and loss to the
Compauy to permit Ihe rails to remalu on tbe street
and be de-.tro.vcd; that the plaiutltTsUould have made;
llila motion when the woric wus commenced two
weeks alnce; tbul li e plainiill' has ample security left
for the lionda lie claluis. and tuat the defeudanls are
willing lo give "aeoiirHy lor tbe moneys received from
tlie auie ot the materials ot that part ot the toad being
taken up."
Iu addition to tbeae matters of defense, It was sog
gexled upon the argument that tbe portion of road
w hlch the defeudauts are removing Is not covered by
the mortgage uuder wulcb the piaintUI claims.
The deleiKlunla were incorporated by act of As
aeiulily, April U, IMMi (1. L , wlih powers to lay
rails upon certaiu stroeis iu West Philadelphia, and
' with the right to iuternect andiun tbeir cars over any
paBsenger ruilway now constructed, or which may
hereuller be constructed, so us to give the said Com
pany a complete route lrom Heslouvlle to the eastern
limits ol the city."
liy a supplement ot March 8, 18fi0 (P. L. 123) the
Compenv were empowered "to lay out aud construct
their railway tracks from their present termluus
across the bj.iiiylklll t(t Callowhill street, and along;
Callow lull street to Delaware avenue.
tbe mortgage referred loin the bill was executed
Decembers, laoa, before the passage or tbe supple
ment, aud, ot eonrre, h.-tore auy railways were laid
ou Callowbill street; but it covers "all and singular
the railwaya, rnlls, bridges, fences, depots, stations,
easements, .lm Idem, rights, aud all real property of
every Oet'riptnn belonging to said Company, and
Which Bhall be hereafter acquired or owned by.tnem.'
1 regiird this langiiageas suttlcieutly bioud to cover
tho Callow bill si reel brunch, aud thedeteiidants must
thereiore rely upon the allegations of the plalntllTs
delay, the cost ot maintaining ibis portiou or the road,
and tbe ample security afforded oy the other pro
perty. The delay ol two weeks In niukiug tbls ap
plicatlon la hrdly conclusive against the plalnliir.
lie mlKht have "willingly stood oy until the work
whs half done," in tbe hope tnat bis remonstrauces or
objections would secure a settlement, and at the worst
his permission to destroy one-halt of bis security
would not bar bis rlsht lo retain the remainder.
That tbe maintenance ot tbls portion of the road
entails a grievous expense upon tbe Company weuld
Justify them In an attempt to sell It, subject to tbe
mortgage, or In relinquishing It to the mortgagees If
they could not find a purchaser; but surely the unpro
fitableness of the enterprise is no Justification for the
destruction ol tbe Irauchlse, against the protest 61 a
party having a vested Interest In Its maintenance.
Can a mortgagor say to his creditor, it is better for
your interests tbat 1 should tear up your roadT It
may be tbat the defendants' allegitions are correct,
aud that their conclusions are the reault of unim
peachable Judgment, but they forget tbat tbey bave
parted with the right to decide tbese questions of ex
pediency. If the mortgage cover tne road, the defen
dants have no right to touch liiave for proper repairs
and lawful use,
:ven a mortgagee In possession can do no act to
prejudice the estate. He cannot cut down timber
although his purpose Is thereby to extinguish the
debt, and he Is hound to keep the estate lu such repair
as to preserve It. Vide ctyes cited, 1 Waterman's
Eden on Injunctions, 204.
if this is the rule as against a mortgagee, we must
not be surprised to llnd it applied with rigor to a
mortgagor. Aud although this principle seems to
have ueen at one time doubted by Loi a Thurlow, be
cause It was the lault of the mortgagee lo permit the
mortgagor to continue In possession, yet It is now
eeliled, says Mr. Kden. "by numerous decisions "
(Walermau's Kden on InJ. 2051.) The same princi
ple was sustained in Kinith vs.'Ooodw lo, 2 ireent
Hep.. 173; although the dwelling-house "bad been
erected by the rnortgagor afiur the execution
of tue mortgage." Kee also The esses cited in the
learned opiuit n of Woodward, J. Witner's Appeal
DWii., 4K2-3. The obligation resting on persons wno
bave accepted a franchise to mulnlulu their works Is
well explaiut d by tbe cases or Reglaa vs. The Bristol
Uock Co.. 1 Knglisb Kailway and Canal Cases. 6t9r
hex vs. Tbe Severn and Wye R. R. Co.. Id. 641- and
Martin vs. 1 be Hecond and Third Streets Passenger
Railway Co.. per Ludlow, J., 8 Pbllo. Rop.,stti. Nor
do I regard the allegation that "tbe plaint! IT baa.
ample security lelt lor the bonds he claims"
as any deleuse. He has the right to hold all
' ,15.Drouerl, "0f td until he Is luily satisfied. It
is dllllcult to understand bow the vested rights of Z
mnrtir.a.Aiin I... .-.....-...., , .
therefore allow the special Injunction prayed for.
