Messrs. Wood & Cary's Opening.
the October opening of fashionable Bonnela
and Millinery goods at the establishment of Messrs.
Wood ACary.TiS Chesnut street, yesterday, was an
overwhelming success la every respect. We bad
hoped to hsve presented to our readers a verbal do-
n r KM ttrtnaRl... II I a.
"t www auuu u iiuvereu ill bv uo
columns of a dally newspaper were utterly Insufficient
for such a project. To afford some Idea of the diffi
culty here encountered, we may mention that In pass
lax through a single room we saw over one hundred
beautiful new bonnets, all challenging our admira
tion, and all of them different, while In elegantly
trimmed Hats for ladles and misses the assortment
was certainly no less varied and extensive.
Under these circumstances, mere general ob
servaton Is all that we can promise, and
tinder this boad we are glad to no'.lce, flrst,
that all the bonnet Indications that we have
seen favor the conviction that ladies have re
turned to their good taste and sense of former
times when things were called by their propor
names, and a dlumond-suapcd or oblong patch of
ir mmed pasteboard was not recognized as a bonnet,
Although still small, the prevailing sizes this season
re more bonnet-shaped, and sufficiently extensive to
admit ot an Inside fare trimming which lor several
past seasons has been Impossible. We therefore say
to the execrable lltllecinrion, which Is passing away,
farewell, with an unaffected desire that it may never
be revived. The return of fact! trimming' we regard
net only as a gratifying improvement In the Bon
net, but as a moral, not to say sanitary, reform.
Instead ot resorting to the complexion-ruining de
ices for beautifying effects, ladles of good taste and
Judgment wll! again avail themselves of the contrast
uftorded by becoming shades, In Inside trimmings for
biirh artistic results.
With (his change In shape comes another blissful
necessity, Tbe ladles will have to bring down their
O j mpus of hair ou the crown. What an improve,
ment that will be! In times gone by a lady of taste
could so arrange her side-face ornaments as to bide a
multitude of facial shortcomings, and the new Idea
again opens to her the stmt Held, with nd vantages l n
tbe crest-like, or diadem formed front at tbe top,
which no former style of bonnet has afforded.
In colors the prevailing shade will be liismark a
beautliul golden brown, which we trust may wear Us
laurels long, as It Is very beautiful, although many
other hues will be in popular favor, as scarlet, orange -purple,
blue, In various shades, and greys and drabs
In endless variety.
We observe that In Trimmings there Is great lati
tude. Tbe new lace strings In various colors are a
pretty feature. Borne of these are delicately sprinkled
with white beads, giving a dew-drop effect, though
Jets and pearls are also used for this purpose. Fea
thers are uaea in great profusion ostrich, maribeau
willow, pheasant, tbe scarlet Ibis, tbe delicate white
heron, and other varieties. In some cases the fea
sors are tipped with beads. Jets, gilt, etc., which cer
tainly add to their luxuriance as a trimming. For tbe
face beautiful shades of orange and canary are
much In vogue, and for general trimming satins,
satin ribbons, and satin ribbons figured with velvet
will have great prominence. Tbe ornamentation of
some few ot tbe Bonnets in the "Opening" struck us
as rather overdone tor Philadelphia tasto, being bet.
ter adapted, in our Judgment, for a Saudwhlch Island
or Abyssinian queen than for tbe more cultivated and
refined queens of America. Still, it requires all kinds
of people to make a world, and we presume the same
rulAAnnlinft to tliA dlvernitv of Bonnets rennlred to
make a first-class millinery "Opening."
The display in Huts was no less attractive or exten.
slve than in Bonnets, the trimming of the former
being also exhibited in great variety. A large line
of imported Felt Hats, In various shades of brown and
drab, richly trimmed, was universally admired.
In fact, in every department the effects of personal
selection from the great centres of fashion in Europe
by Mr. Wood himself were plainly visible, and fouud
a degree of appreciation by the throng of visitors yes
terday that amounted as neurly to a sensatlonas any
thing that we have witnessed In Philadelphia.
A large number of frames were exhibited, entirely
new, and that will be found nowhere else, while the
French bonnets shown were Incomparably more
stylish than any that have been in vogue for many
years. Tbe happy facility which tnls house possesses,
we may note when passing, for l'arislanlzlng the pro.
auctions of their own admirably organized manufac
turing depart ment,;has probably contributed more
than any other feature to render the house of Wood
A Cary the leading millinery firm la the United
States.
Tbe stock of materials for cutting purposes dis.
played In the Opening, will command the largest
attention of the trade, as It Is complete In every par.
tlcular; and from comments freely made In our bear.
Ing yesterday by purchasers, we can scarcely err In
stating that the prices of this house are unusually
moderate.
ANOTBtR Compliment to Fbilablphia.
Mr. Samuel B. Phillips, the well-known manutac
nrer of harness and saddlery In this city, has now
till another testimonial for the excellence of bis
workmanship, which increases the honors and ad.
vantages ol the city as well as his own. At the Btate
Fair held at Norrlstown, Mr. Fhillips was awarded a
pedal gold medal lor his superb dlBplay of harness,
and bis unsurpassed four-ln-band team. A Bpeclal
committee of tbe West Chester fair, which closed on
tbe 28th nit , was appointed to consider the claims of
the various contestants. Tbe display of harness by Mr.
Phillips excelled all others, and he was tbe recipient
ot another gold medal. Considering the fine taste,
excellent Judgment, ample means, and ripe and
enlarged experience or Mr. Phillips, It Is not at all
wonderful that he should be so signally successful.
Increasing business required the erection of a store
Suitable to display bis enormeus stock, and it Is with
exceeding pleasure that we notice the rapid strides
towards the completion of the new building on Ches
nnt street, above Twelfth. It Is expected that it will
be ready for occupancy at the beginning of tbe next
rear. It will be opened with a display of harness,
addlery, and other goods belonging to this branch of
business never before witnessed in this olty which
will, without doubt, tend to increase a trade and
manufacture which is as excellent as any In tbe coun
try, and which constantly grows.
. A Dangbbous Season. An almost unparalleled
quantity of rain bas fallen during the summer. Vege
tation has been wonderfully thick and rank, and, as
it decays, an unusual amount of sickness may be ex
pected unless proper means are taken to prevent IU
Fever and ague aud bilious remittents already pre
vail to an alarming extent, and as tbe Fall advances
and the malarious night fogs become heavier, the sick
list Is likely to Increase both In the city and the coun
try. It is, therefore, only an act of common prudence
to keep the vital forces In full vigor, so that they may
resist tbe unhealthy Influences of the season. Rein
forced by the tonic operation of HOSTETTER'S STO
MACH BITTERS, the system, however weak and
susceptible, naturally will. In nine cases out of ten,
successfully combat every species of atmospherlo
poison by which epidemics are produced.
During the months of September, October, and No
vember the difference in temperature between day
sight Is very great, and the chilling dews and mists of
the season are the prolllio causes of indigestion
cholera-merbus, diarrhea, and dysentery. Bearing
this In mind, rimetnber, alio, that tbe BITTERS not
only invigorate the stomach and brace the nerves, but
tt specifically upon Hit bowels and the liver, tin parting to
those important organs regularity and tone. It Is not
yeasonable to expect immunity from prevalent com
plaints if no precautions are taken to escape them.
HOSTETTER'S BITTERS are at once pleasant to
tbe teste, and tbe most certain ot all safeguards
against febrile ailments.

THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY,
General rcter JLyle' Speech.
The following is a true copy of General Lyle's
speech to the Convention that nominated hlra,
as reported by Mr. McAran, a well-known pro
fessional phonograph to reporter, and tworn to
by him as being correct in every particular:
"Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention:
I have to ask one grace of you, and that Is, not to ask
me to make a speech. I can work, but I cannot talk:
but I can say that I owe this Convention a debt of
gratitude that I never can pay. This Is. I think, the
first time In the hlHtory or the party where they have
given the nomination twice by acclamation as they
have given me. The work, gentlemen, Is just com
menced. This Is the commencement of lu Let us
canvass our precincts and st'qi this colonization, Offl
cera of election, where we are In the minority, should
attend the meeting; and the Return Judge, where
we have one, should attend tbe meeting next
morning, for there is where the damage Is done,
particularly where we are tn tbe minority.
If we stop this cheat inn, the lowest man on
our ticket will be elected by from com to soon ma
jority. I have travelled the county over for the last
three months. I have met many people in tbe can
vass. I have seen aud conversed with many people,
and I have failed yet to meet, the first man who does
not k now from one to twenty who have changed their
opinions from last year. We, were, not beaten last year.
I was koi BRATKN. I WAS ELECTED BY A
HANDSOME MAJORITY: but wot counted out.
Tbe right way Is not to let those rascals do It again.
I can do no more than thank you from my heart for
tbe position In which you have placed me. I will
leave nothing undone for the success of the ticket."
(Applause.)

League Island.
The following Is a letter of Joseph N. Pelrsol,
Democratic candidate for City Treasurer, to a
member of the U. 8. Senate:
Philadelphia, June 21. 1812.
Sir: I take the liberty of add replug you
npon the subject of the proposed location of the
United States Navylardat League Island. I
have been informed, aud I believe, League
Island has been wholly reclaimed from the
river Delaware, and is only prevented from
overflow by large banks of stone and earth. It
is surtounded, exoeptupon one side, by a marsh,
and for this cause, as well as from Insalubrity,
It baa been unimproved and unoccupied, except
as pasture land, at a moderate rent, since its
reclamation. The fast land la from six to eight
feet below high-water mark at all points, and
would cost over a million dollars to level and
fit for nse as much as will be required for the
large purposes projected.
If the object is to erect foundries, the spongy
nature of the soil would make it Impossible to
get a proper foundation for the buildings exeept
at a great cost, nor could a well of sufficient
depth be dng for large castings. It could not
cost less than two or three million dollars in
ship-houses, dry-docks, and other structures
now in the old yard, which would have to be
abandoned. Thin the gift of the Inland would be
dear, and still dearer if $2,000,000 were added to
the gift towards fitting it for use. Most of the
ship carpenters employed In the yard now
reside in Kensington, nearly eight miles dis
tant from the Island, where they would con
tinue, as Government work Is not sufficiently
regular or remunerative to Induce a permanent
removal. The Island Is at least ttve miles from
the supply stores of the city. The approaches
are as low as me Island Itself, and unfit for
building purposes, and far distant from
hydrants, gas, improved streets, police and rail
roads. The place his only to be visited and seen to de
monstrate its unfitness, and I would humbly
suggest a visit by a committee of Congress for
tbe purpose, before so great an outlay Is In
curred or promised, where performance Is im
possible. There are minor objections, whioh. I
will not urge. I am as earnest as any Pblla
dclphian In the desire of the location of a first
class yard, but it is my duly, Impelled by tbe
same feelings which you nave, to state to you,
as a public man, It will cost at least four million
nollars to fit League Island for tbe least effi
ciency as compared with the present yard. If
you add foundries, etc., that will be an addi
tional expense, which I will not undertake to
estimate.
The present yard may be extended for about two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and provide
all the ground necessary now and hereafter with
out disturbance or delay. I am ready to' give fur-
tt-kAv infViiimutlAn 1-tulnnr narDinoilo nnlrnnurn
to you, I reler youtoauy of the Philadelphia 1
delegation ot me House to oe assured wno i am..

I). B. Januey, living at No. 6Z5 Marshall street, and
u lumber broker by occupation, hns been held in S?r,JrO
ball by Alderman Holnie, upon the charge ol obtain
ing money under false pretenses. It seems that
Jsnney went to Fronkford. and offered to sell Mr.
William Frwin. a carpenter of that place, a lot of
lumber. The latter said be had no money, but It he
would tuke his note he would buy of him. The result
was that Erwin accompanied Janney to this city, and
on Broad street the latter showed the former a oar
load of lumber. Erwln purchased 1M worth, and
gave bis note for that amount. Janney requested of
I rwin cot to send lor the lumber for a tew days: this
request the carpenter said he would comply with, a
lew days following F.rwiu came to the city, and ascer
tained that the lumber was tbe property ot another
person, otber than Janney. A warrant was then got
out for the broker upon the above charge, and he was
arrested yesterday.
At the hearing It was discovered that Thomas Tay
lor, another carpenter of Frankferd, bad given Jan
ney $ao6 for a quantity or lumber, and the latter had
placed In Taylor's bands the note of Mr. Erwin as
security for tbe delivery ot tbe lumber. It bas not
yet been delivered, however.
Tbis afternoon the accused will have a hearing be
fore Alderman Beitlei, upon tbe charge of obtaining
merchandise under false pretenses. It Is said that he
has swindled another party.

Thk Richmond Whiskyites held a meeting
last night, In view or thn two raid wnioh hmimta
made upon tbem during tbe past few days. Well
knowing that the United Stales authorities would not
be disposed to back out of the contest after the re
pealed defeats which they have sustained, it was
thought advisable by the rum-ones of Richmond that
there should be some concern on their part, in order
that they might be fully prepared for tbe next en
counter, whenever it hikes pluce. The meeting was
quite largely attended, and much enthusiasm was
manifested on the part of the whiskyites. We are not
acquainted with the precise plan of campaign adopted,
but presume It will be similar to that adopted several
years ago by the derlzens of the sains locality,
when they received a visit from the Sheriff, backed
by a military lorce, the upsbol ot which visit was the
litter discomliture ot the latter, wno were nreu upon
from the shanties with which the place abounds.
When the national authorities make their next raid
upon the Richmond stills, they should go in over
whelming force, that the disgraceful Bcestcs of yester
day may not he re-eiiocied.

reasons for the assault. He said he caught Bagley In
the art of picking the pocket of bis brother In-law,
and consequently knocked him down for so doing.

The V. S. Marshal Is Supported
n Lurgc Force or Marines.
by
Exciting Scenes and Incidents.
mt:, Kte., Kte., Etc., V.tc, Ete.
When tbe result of the raid upon the Illicit
stills at Richmond yesterday became known,
United Btates Marshal Ellniaker determined at
once upon proceeding to tbe scene of operations
with a force which could not be successfully
resisted by a rabble of women and children.
Accordingly, be waited upon Commodore Sel
fridge, tbe Commandant of tbe Navy Yard, this
morning, and requested tbe assistance of a
company of United btates marines. Commo
dore Bel fridge acquiesced at once, placing all
his available force at the Marshal's command,
and then telegraphed his action to Wash
ington. Tbe company of marines, consisting of eighty
six men, fully armed, was commanded by
Msjor L. L. Dawson, Captain Faan, aud Lieu
tenant Ford. They proceeded first to tbe Ex
change, and from that point were transferrbd
to Kiohmond In three street cars, followed by
four furniture wtgons for tbe purpose of re
moving the captured stills.
Marshal Ellmaker detailed the following to
osslst lilm in making the raid: Chief Deputy
De Witt C. Hanline, Upeolul Deputy David Gor
don, and Deputies Adam Trefts, Charles C.
Whippy, John F. Sharkey, and Jouu Lall'orty.
Mr. Dyinan B. Cole, tbe Chief of the Philadel
phia Revenue Board, and Inspectors James
uhegan and A. H. Brooke likewise proceeded
to the ground. In addition to the above. Lieu
tenant Murray, of the Eighteenth Folioe Dis
trict, with twenty men, were ordered to be on
band, and a number of others were disposed in
the neighborhood within call, increasing the
whole force to nearly two hundred men.
The Marines, accompanied by most of the
Deputy Marshals, lelt the Exchange at five
minutes after 12 o'clock. Shortly alter this.
Marshal Eltmaker, with Deputies Hanline and
Gordon, and the reporter of Tub Evening
Tei.korai-h, took a carriage, and arrived at tbe
corner ol Lehigh avenue aud Hichinoud street,
the appointed rendezvous, In advance of the
Marines.
At 1 o'clock the force of marines arrived, and
formed In line in front of tbe market house.
Having loaded their weapons, tuey were
alvlded Into four squads, and then proceoded
to the h Unions allotted them. One squad was
placed In position on Salmon street, above Wil
liams; another on Kdgmout street. Immediately
opposite; a third on Williams street, a cross
street, a few squares above. Tne chief locality
in which the illegitimate manufacture of
whisky Is carried on was thus etl'eotually sur
rounded. While these preliminaries were being ar
ranged, a large crowd of all aes and sexes had
been collecting, some of them remarking, "This
looks like work," while the ohlldren ran Joy
fully about, shouting "No school to-day !" Tbe
crowd finally became so troublesome, although
showing no force, that theolUcers ordered them
indoors, some obeying sulkily, while others,
especially the foul-f ie t women, had to be
bushed bodily Into tnelr bouses.
Tbe first place visited was In the rear of a row
of houses faclmi Salmon street between Mon
mouth and Williams, near the two stills which
were broken up yesieiday. Tbe first spoil of
war was a tin-bead, which was iouud secreted
In a cellar. An entrance was then etlectod luto
two low bonrd shanties, but it was found that
the stills had been removed since yesterday A
few hogsheads filled w ith fermenting molasses
were lound, and these were attacked with axes
and picks, and their contents speedily sought
the level of the ground. A number of fat hoKS
were on haud, and as soon asthereekiuic filth
reacneu tne ground, they commenced to drink
It up.
The officers then assailed the rear of the
liquor store of Pat MeOawey, at No. 113U Wil
liams street, securing a large copper still and
several beads, which hud been hidden away in
an outhouse.
Tbe next attack was maie upon the rear of
JNo. 1120 Williams street, a woman only being
found on the premises. Iu the rear was a small
outhouse, In which distilling had been carried
on. The Woman stated that she lived at some
distance, and the honse being ell'cctually closed,
an "officer vaulted through tbe second story
back window. The doors were then opened,
aud tbe woman who "lived at some dlstauce''
claimed to be tbe proprietor. This place was
cleaned out, and the raiders moved on.
Tbe liquor store of li. O'Uonner, No. 1120 Wil
liams street, at tbe corner of Edgmont, came
next. A woman, as uual, was in charge, and
denied tbe civil officers admittance, claiming
that all was right within, and pledging ber
honor that no contraband bubiuess was carried
on upon the premise,. Half a dozen Marines
were ordered to effect an entrance, and then
tbe Marshal and his assistants went in and
searched tbe bouse.
in the rear was found a small, low shed con
taining a still which httd recently been In ope
ration and was yet warm. This wus torn out
and carried olT, and ten hogsheads of malt in
tbe shed and two in the yard broken up. In
the house was also fouud a "worm," which led
to an Investigation of the back yard.
While the last place was being cleaned out,
Deputy Marshal Hanline walked across the
street to the house 1N0. 1121 Williams street, in
which lives John Mooney, Tbe crowd, which
numbered about two hundred by this time, but
had been remarkably quiet hitherto, then
made a rush for tbe new point of attack, and a
serious disturbance was threatened.
Tbe weapons ef the marines soon overawed
tbem, however, and Deputy Uanllne jumped
over the fence to the rear yard, discovering
several hogsheads of malt and a still in tbe
cellar under full headway. The fence was torn
down without any ceremony, and a force of
Officers entered, finding the cellar stocked full
of hogsheads of malt. These were soon routed
out, although their position rendered it some
what difficult.
At this stage of the proceedings our reporter
left the ground, but Mr. Cole had Just reported
to the Marshal that lie had discovered at least
twenty more stills in the neighborhood, and
we presume that the ulfiners will continue
their destructive work till ulghtfall.

Another Bank. Fallnre.
The failure of the National Bank at Whites
town, New York, is reported to-day. Tnls bank
bas been In an embanassed condition foraorno
time. It was originally a Hlate bank, and the
embarrassment now experienced grows out of
its mode of doing business, and transactions
entered upon before its conversion to the
National system. The enforcement of the re
gulations to which all national banks are sub
ject, demonstrated the fact that it could not
successfully continue business, and its stock
holders will wind it np.

RIOT IN LOUISIANA.
Klectlon Riot In Jefferson City Police

Rioter Killed The Disturbance ttuelled.
by the Military.
New Orleans papers ol Sept. 20 give accounts
of a serious riot wblch occurred between 3 and
4 o'clock on the aiternoon of the previous day,
iu fioDt of the Court House In Jefferson City,
La., In which a youn? man named Harry
KoiaDde, a member of Home Hook and Ladder
Company, was mortally wounded. The account
given is as follows:
"Seven hundred and sixty-five registered men
bad voted, only thirty ot whom were white,
when the disturbance commenced, caused by a
white ruffian, named Henry Holland known as
'Hurry RoUand' a fireman and lormer soldier
in the Coufe Jerate army. Holland, after pre
senting himselt as the polls and showing that he
was registered. Insultingly scratched a ticket
bearing Republican nsmes, rewrote and depo
sited it. Then, drawing-a revolver.he commenced
threatening the Inspector of Elections, Mr. Fre
derick Fne. The latter stepped to the door aud
ordered Policeman Joseph Fleury to arrest Rol
land. Belore this could be done Rolland shot
Officer Fleurv, tbe ball passing through his
hand, fired two other shots promiscuously at the
crowd, and flourished his revolver with the re
maining three shots in it. By this time RoUanrI
was arrested by another policeman (Richard
Hethcrton), assisted by citizens, and taken to-
arils tbe prison. A policeman, Henry Davis,
who had him in eh arse at the prison door, ne
glucttul ot bis duty, said Rollaua was his friend
and be would not imprison him. To tbe credit
ot Major Frye be it said, he at once deprived
Davis of his star and baton. In tbe meantime a
rush of Holland's friends was maue for his res
cue; a man named Henry C. Reese, with a Der
ringer in each hand, being conspicuous in thU
crime. Theno fiends commenced an in
discriminate lirinj upou the innocent citi
zens, three ot whom were immediately
badly wounded. One of them, William Alex
ander (colored), an ex-Union soldier, the
doctor reports wounded in the fleshy part
of the upper right thiijh, the ball enteriue ob
liquely irom upwards. Another, Gabriel Law
son (also colored), the doctor also reports shot
in the back, the ball striking the vertebral
column, following the latter track ef the same;
and another, Joseph Bisain, colored, was re
ported by the surgeon as shot through the left
forearm, the ball entering and imbedding itself
in the muscle of the upper arm of the same side:
wound paiDful but not dangerous. Woundei
also by ball entering and imbedding Itself
near tbe loint of the riht shoulder. Tha
colored citizens returned the lire, and Hol
land was shot through the brain and soon
died. His principul co rioter, Heury C. Raese,
was also shot In several places duriruj the
melee once through the aodomeu. He was
living at 9 o'clock last night. Muior Fry sent a
messenger with a note to tbe military pont at
Greenville for aid in saving bloodshed. He was
seconded in this by Mr. D. C. Woodruff. Mayor
of Jefferson, who al:o did bis whole duty
throuerhout the trying and disgraceful affair.
Captain B. B. Keeier, of the 19th Infantry,
brought out every available man at once throe
companies thinned by the epidemic and guartl
duty. Though they had to march a mile to tbe
cars, and then ride two miles further, they were
on the ground and pieces loaded in twenty
minutes after receiving the word. How
unlike the singular conduct of the military
nnder Sheridan and Baird in the riot of
July, 18GI1! Previous to the arrival ot the troop
the Are and other bells bad been rung, and the
populace, by hundreds, bad collected, armed
with guns, revolvers, and bludgeons, under the
terrible excitement of tbe moD. But at the
sight of tbe military a general skedaddling to.
their homes was observed, with muskets rapidly
hidden away. Captain Keeier, being informed
that squads of these armed men had taken
refuge at different points, sent ofticerj in chargw
ot men to each point, and dispersed them. The
Captain also visited the headquarters of General
Mower immediately after this, and received
orders relative to iurther proceedings. He and
Lieutenant Bucklaud, with a portion of the
men, remained on the ground all night to secure
order, while the residue returned to the post.
We f aw a statement of tbe case in writing by
Mayor Woodruff, which accords all honor to the
troops in quelliug tbe disturbauce, and thuH
probably preventing another July riot of great
dimensions.
