' tell me to say It;" 1 saw Kachel shake her fist, and
say, "I will fix you and your mother before

called for water, saying her lnsldes were on fire; I
"bave seen and examined other things thrown over
and never saw anything on tbem; Annie said the

her after eating tbe peach I looked at her tongue and
found It all blistered; Annie never told a lie; we
haven't been on very good terms with tbe Joneses for

the same as sbe had testiUed here: she did not say
who put the peach in tbe yard; I beard Mr. Jones

Dr. William Taylor sworn Attended tbe child; on
asunday evening, the 18th ol August, I was sum
moned to go to Mr. Richards', tbe messenger stating
tbe child bad convulsions; on reaching the ho ate I
'found tbe child lying in lu father's lap; on question
ing It It complained of thirst and pain In the stomach,
ari t nt..t anma twltchlniot the musoles: I asked
Mr, Klcbards what the child bad eaten; he remarked
that she had eaten for supper a few tomatoes, bread,
and tea; It bad no convulsions while I was there; I
asked what they bad done; they bad put It la a warm
..n, ami siren it some assafuellda: I re
marked to them that they had done very wall,
and all that was requisite; I staid there
a few minutes, and thlnklaglt arose from a disordered
stomach,! prescribed a purgative, and gave it another
dose of assafwdlta while I was there: I remained a
little while, and finding that there was do convul
sions I questioned the cuuu. ana louna it was per
aiiv ivinuiima! I told tbem If It bad any more con
vulsions to apply tbe same remedies; about
half an hour another messenger came for
me, stating tbat tbe child was worse;
I remarked i hat I would ceme as soon as possible,
havtnir another natlaat to attend: I did not get back

prlsed;wben Mr. Klcbards luformed me that the shlld
fad bad several convulsions and had dld at a quar
ter to 10; 1 remarked to him it was a verynudden death;
I could not account for It; I suggested a pott mortem
examination by the Coroner; I tbiuk It was then be
said the child bad taken a bile of a peach which had
something In It, which It bad picked up In tbe yard; I
told him that. In order to be positive, It would bs ne-
'cesaary to have a chemical examination ol tbe sto
mach made, as a pnut mortem examination would not
reveal anything without tbat; either tbat day or tbe
next Mr. Klcbards came to me for a certificate
that the child could be burled: I wrote one, cause uii

A Scnixmo Rack on tri Drlawarb at
BRtnwiBURO. This afternoon at 2 o'clock was
tbe time appointed for the race on tbe Delaware
between James Hamlll, of PitteburK, and Wm.
Myera, of this city. The arrangement for thta
content were entered into several weeks ago, the
challenge coming from Myers Immediately after
lils successful race with Mr. William Glenn, on
tbe Delaware, during; tbe past summer. Myers
has been a prominent oarsman on the Delaware
and Hcbuylkill for some time past, and having
achieved the cbatnplonabip of the former
river, he desired t-o male himself with
the bero of the Hudson In the recent
affair with Walter Urown. On receiving the
challenge, II am 111 paid a visit to thin city, and
finally accepted the terms proposed, although
tbe style of boat selected, a fifteen-feet skill",
was something to which be whs not altogether
BcotiHlomed, and It was thought, at the time
that the Delaware champion would get the
better of htm. The amount of the prize was
fixed at $1000 a side, the race to start from the
stake-boat, opposite Brld ire street, Brldesburg,
and to extend two miles and a half up the river
and return.
Myers soon went into training for the con
test, making bis headquarters at the house of
Mr. George W. Hlmons, Hichmond street, above
l'almer. When Hamlll reached this city after
bis race on the Hudson with Walter Brown,
he accepted tbe hospitalities tendered him by
Mr. Thomas Dickson, of Brldesburg. He was
accompanied by Mr. Nicholas Hmtth, of New
York, and by Messrs. 8 pear and Newell, of
rilUburg, who olticlated as his trainers for the
recent race with Brown,
Yesterday the backers of the two contestants
met at the house of Mr. Dickson, at Brldesburg,
and made the final deposit of tbe stakes.
Robert H. Newton, of this city, was appointed
referee; and Messrs. Nicholas Smith, of New
York, und John Newell, of Pittsburg, were se
lected as Judges for Hamlll, while Messrs.
Kamuel lilce and William Hlce, of Pnlladulpbla,
were chosen to act in a like capacity lor Myers.
Tbe start will be made at 2 o'clock; this after
noon. A number of Bteamboats were chartered
for the purpose of carrying up to Brldesburg
those who were desirous of witnessing the con
test. At 10 o'clock this morning a preliminary
race came off between Messrs. Cornwell and
Simons, something of this sort being deemed
advisable for working the enthusiasm of tha
crowd up to the proper pltcb.

ocourred yesterday afternoon, at his residence
In this city, No. 8l Bpruce street. Colonel

withstanding his long association with the
Democratic party, gave his entire sympathy to
the Government in all its efforts to assert the
supremacy of the Constitution and the laws,
and never swerved from the high and patriotic

ing part in militia matters, and displayed great
activity and courage during the terrible riots

BURNING OF TIIE SHIP INVINCIBLE.
Accident to a Fireman The Vessel
Valwed at flOO.OOO-The Origin of the
Fire Unknown.
At an early hour yesterday morning another
vessel was consumed by fire on the East river,
and owing more to good luck than good
management, the drifting "fire .hip" was the
oniv vessel destroyed. Between 12 aud 1 o'clock
vesterday morning it was discovered that the
shlo Invincible, lying opposite Bobtnsou's store
house, near Montague street, Brooklyn, waa on
"rnu,e persons on board at the time were the
watchman. Samuel Dean, and the carpenter,
Frederick Dunlech. They were Bleeping in the
raDtain's cabin, when the smoke caused Dean to
awake, and he at once roused the carpenter and
Jmraarlad to rive the alarm. By that time
the flames had gained great headway, aud on
the arrival of the firemen the smoke was so
dense that they were unable to enter between
.u-A.i,. Vrnm all narts of the vessel dense
columns of black smoke ascended, aud, not
withstanding the unremittinaj endeavors of the
a...n thn flames continued to gain headway
in tho interior of tUe Tensel. At one time it wm
o - - -
proposed to open the hatchways, bnt fer" were
entcriMinea tost tne ercai aauiuunai cunru m
air would retard, instead of facilitating tne
eflorts of tbe firemen to save tbe ship.
About half-past 2 o'clock she wa cut from her
moorlups and drifted into the stream, where the
Bremen let (?o one of her anchors, but she
draaged it, Bnd drifted to the Fulton street
tetry, a mass of flames and smoke. Here a
hawser was attached, and the Fulton ferry boat
Union towed ber out into the middle oi tne
Fast rivpr, where thn anchor brought her to for
a short lime. An effort wat then made to scat
tie ber. Mr. Dean, the watchmau, then went
abosrd, nut the denne smnko caused him to fall
on the deck in an insensible condition, and it
was only on belon removed from the burning
vessel that ho revived. A. strone flood
tide was running, ami tbe vessel atjain
drilled towards the New York side and brought
up near the foot of Bnekman street, where a
squad of the Second precinct police, under 8er
peant Walsh, weie promptly on hand to render
wnatever assistance might be required. Again
the burning vessel drifted on", and floated ud the
liver to the Fourth police precinct. There she
was boarded bv Ulucers Out", Thompson, Ander
son, and Klley, who dropped her loft bower
anchor and remained on board until driven off
by tbe flames. She ren-alned at that place until
the lor? mast went overboard and the windlass
gave way, when sh5 again drifted and was car
ried by the current alongside of pior No; 28,
wnere sue remained stationary.
The engines ceased to work shortly before 4
o'clock, as all efforts to get the tire under had
proved unavailing. At a quarter to 6 o'ciook
the main and mlzzen masts went overboard with
a tremendous crash, and preparations were
a?ain made to scuttle ber, as it was feared that
if allowed to burn to the water's-edo the dock
would be in daneer of catching fire. This in
tention was finally abandoned, as it was deemed
iro possible to carry it out successfully, on ao
count of there being no barge on boiird.
At six o'clock the engines again went to work.
Two were on tbe dock and two on board a tug
boat in tbe river. They continued to throw
streams of water into her hold until about
eleven o'clock, when, finding tbat all efforts to
extinguish tha flames were unavailing, the still
blazing hull was towed down the East river, off
uovernor s island, where streams or water were
thrown on ber from numerous tugs and the
flames extinguished at a late hour last eve
ning. During the time that the ship lay at the
Brooklyn sld of the river, John Hinderman. a
member of Engine Company No. 9. was seri
ously injured by falling from a ladder. He was
conveyed to his residence In Ormond place, and
hopes are entertained of his recovery.
The Invincible was built by Mr. Webb about
twelve years ago, was 1326 tons burden, aud
was valued at $100,000. Sbe was one of a line
of merchantmen sailing between New York and
tan Francisco, and was owned by Messrs. iiast
incrs. Hillings A. Co.. of Boston, who. it Is re-
norted. sustain a loss of about $60,000. At the
time ot the accldont she wan about loading with
a general cargo for California, but, very luckily,
nolhins bad been laced on board.
Notbinz definite has been ascertained relative
to the origin ol the fire, although it is presumed
to have been caused by a spark from a candle.
as the shipkeeper (Dean) was, it is stated, in the
hold on Tuesday afternoon with a lighted
candle, and there was no other fire on board
during tne day. jv. x. ueraia.

Tito Casa of Fits John rortar.
Fitz John Porter was at tbe White House thn
morning, waiting an interview with the Presi
dent, lie also visited (Jeneral Grant at the War
Department, with whom he spent some time.
The impression prevails that Porter's applica
tion tor a new trial will receive a favorable
consideration at the hands ot the President.
although it Is said some feeling has been crea'ed
by the early publication ot portions ot tne ap
plication. But this will not affect the merits of
tne case, wnica win oe necuen wnouy upon ma
ground of adequacy of tho testimony alleged
to have been after discovered.
There is a certain emvrit du corpt among ths
regular army officers, and they feol deeply tho
stain wnica is cstupon tne profession oy any
ofliccr being cashiered, and this feeling to becom
ing strongly developed in rotters case, as most
of the army officers who have been discussing
the matter this morning appear lavorable to
reoneiiimr tbe care, to allow tbe accused an
opportunity, it be can, to vindicate himself. I
am not sure tnat tnis teciing is not entertained
by the Generat-in-Cblef. lor early this morning
he visited Porter at his hotel. It is hlehly pro
bable that Grant will interpose no objection
should tho President decide to reopen the case.
The indorsement of prominent Republicans
will also exert a strong influence lu Porters
behalf.
