Oeneral Peter Lyle's Speech.
The folio win In a true copy of General Lyle's
speech to the Convention that nominated him,
as reported by Mr. McAran, a well-known pro
fessional phonographlo reporter, and sworn to
by him as being correct In every particular:
"M r. President and Gentlemen of the Convention:
I have to auk one grace of you, and tbat la, not to ask
me to make a speech. I can work, but I cannot talks
hut I can lay that I owe this Convention a debt of
gratitude tbat I never can pay. This Is, I think, ne
first time In the history of 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 It, Let us
canvass our precincts and stop this colonization. Offi
cers of election, where we are In the minority, should
attend the meeting: and the .Return Judge, where
we have one, should attend the meeting next
morning, for there Is where the,, damage Is done,
particularly where we are In the minority.
If we stop this chcatinp, the lowest man on
our ticket will be elected by from 6000 to 8000 ma
lorlty. I have travelled the county over for the last
three months. I have met many people In the can
vbbs. I have seen and conversed with many people,
and I have failed yet to meet the first man who does
Hot know from one to twenty who have changed their
Opinions from last year. We were not beaten last year.
I was HOT sratkn. I WAS ELECTED BY A
HANDSOME MAJORITY; but I was counted out.
The right way Is not to let those rahcals do It again.
I can do no more than thank you from my heart for
the position In which you have placed me. I will
leave nothing undone for the success of the ticket."
(Applause.)

Williams Ogle, Alderman.
League Island.
The following is a letter of Joseph N. Pelrsol,
Democratic candidate for City Treasurer, to a
member of the U. H. Henate:
Philadelphia, June 23, 18G2.
Sir: I take the liberty of addressing you
upon the subject. of the proposed location of the
United States Navy Yard at League Island. I
have been informed, and 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 surrounded, except upon oneslde, by a marsh,
and for this cause, as well as from insalubrity,
It has been unimproved and unoccupied, exoept
as pasture land, at a moderate rent, since its
reclamation. The fast land is from six to eight
feet below high-water mark at all points, and
would cost over a million dollars to level and
fit for use as much as will be required for the
large purposes projected.
If the object is to erect foundries, the spongy
natHre of the soil would make it imrjossible to
et a proper foundation for the buildings except
at a great cost, nor could a well of sufficient
depth be dug for large castings. It could not
oost less than two or three million dollars in
Bhip-bouses, dry-docks, and other structures
now in the old yard, which would have to be
abandoned. Thus the gift of the Island would be
dear, and still dearer if 82,000,000 were added to
the gift towards Jilting it for use. Most of the
Chip 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 five miles from
the supply stoies of the city. The approaches
are as low as the Island Itself, and unlit 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
the purpose, before so great an outlay is in
curred or promised, where performance is Im
possible. There are minor objections, whloh I
Will not urge. I am as earnest as any Phlla
delphlan In the desire of tbe location of a first
class yard, but it is my duly, impelled by the
same feelings which you have, to state to you,
as a public man, It will cost at least four million
dollars to fit League Island for the least effi
ciency as conapiired with the present yard. If
you add foundries, etc., that will be au 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
ther information. Being personally unknown
to you, I reler you to any of the Philadelphia
delegation of the House to be assured who I am.
With high respect,
Joseph N. Peirsol,

THE GREAT WHISKY RAID!
How It Ended Yesterday.
The Distillers Kemoving Their Stills.
A Meeting of Their Emnloyes.
KtM Etc., Kte.( Etc., Etc., Et.
When our report of the great raid npon the Rich
mond stills closed yesterday, we left the raiders upon
the premises of John Moouey, at the S. E. corner ot
Kdgmout and Williams streets. In John's innocent
looking cellar a splendid copper still and about twenty
hogsheuds ol mash were unearthed. The copper con
cern was ex.rlcated with great dllllcully, and the
sides ot the mash barrels were caved in. their con
tents runnlngout and flooding the cellar, from which
there was no outlet, to a considerable depth. In the
cellar an old tin still was also discovered, but being or
Utile value, It was knocked to pieces and left behind.
On the rear ot Mooney's lot stood a stable, an exami
nation of which disclosed a subterranean chamber,
used as a storehouse for whisky, but empty on this
occasion. In the third story ot the house, however, a
barrel ot the vile stuir was found. It was emptied
Into small kegs aud carried down stairs, but during
this operation a portion flowed out upon the shed In
the rear, and was caught by the whisky people stand
ing around in their hats aud gulped down like so
much water.
Meanwhile Inspectors Ohegan and Brooks were
conducted up Into the cupola oi the Eighteenth Ward
r-tatiou House, from which point they were shown
the locllty of some open Melds, near Clearfield street,
in which the policeknewthatstills had been secreted.
Accompanied by Deputy Marshal Sharkey, they pro
reeded thitner, and found four stills secreted in acorn
field, and two others bidden away In a lima-be&n
patch. The two houses near by, and numbered 1008
and 1010 Clearlleld street, were also visited. In tbe
latter was found a "worm," a still head, a hose, and
other distilling paraphernalia, together with a barrel
of whioky. The head of the latter was knocked in,
and as the rank concoction flowed out upon the
ground, a sorrowing female exclaimed: "Oh, but
you'll get dry yourself tor this I" To her simple mind,
a thirst tor whisky, without the means of slaking It,
was the acme of torture. In the rear of these two
houses were found two small wooden shautles. from
each of which a still and other apparatus were
extricated.
Atthe upper end of Salmon street, adjoining the
open lots, another large still was captured, and still
nnother at No. 18.'14 Clifton stn et. The rear of the
house No. 1()24 Richmond stieet was also explored,
three stills being discovered, after considerable trou
ble on the part of the olllcHrs. One of these was car
ried off, aud the others demolished; a like fate befall
ing a barrel oi wnisgy wmuii nau oeeu stowed away.
1 lie wagons naa Deen Kept sianuing at tne corner or
Williams and Kdgmont streets, and to tbem all the
raptured stills and other apparatus which was not
f.estroyed were removed, A squad of marines snr-
lounuea tne venicies, a numoer oi policemen oeing
likewise present, to forestall any auempi at a rescue
ot the captured property, which the crowd contem
plated with longing eyes. The four wagons being
loaded with the spoils of war. and darkness near at
hand, Marsnai iimaK-er caueu in nis iorces, una pre
pared for a return to the civilized world, The
uitlerent forces, marine, revenue, and municipal,
concentrated at the corner of Richmond and Wil
liams streets, where the wagons were found in line
and surrounded by the policemen, deputy marshals,
and Inspectors, flanked by the marines. But still an
other capture was on hand, Inspector Ohegan coming
up and reporting the discovery ol four more establish
ments near by, on Kalmou street. A visit to the out
houses ot this locality resulted In tbe capture of four
stills and a barrel of whisky. This completed a list
of about thirty stills which were torn out and broken
up or carried oft enough whisky-tainted copper being
secured to furnish the whole Democratic party with
badges.
The curious caravan then started down Richmond
Mreet, followed by a large and boisterous crowd, who
vented their wrath In the only possible way by hoots
and jeers at their vanquishers. No attempt at a dis
turbance was made until tbe line reached the corner
of Cumberland street. At this point Pat Peoples,
whose only still was In one of the wagoas, forgot tbat
"discretion was the better part of valor," and lor
cetllng this, was destined to come to grief. He had
teen Boraewhat boisterous durlug the afternoon, and
was overheard to threaten vengeance. Pat emerged
from a small house just as the wagons were passing
and graplng a brick, he hurled it at the line, and then
Marled up Cumberland street, as last as his whlsklUed
legs could carry him. He tinallv turned Into an alley
aud there fell Into tbe arms of Deputies Sharkey and
I.all'vrty, by whom he was escorted to the line, and
placed in charge oi Deputy Wippy and a guard ot
marines. For a lime he was Quito peaceable, but as
tbe hopeless crowd began to fall off his courage oozed
cut, and be remarked to Deputy Wippy:
"I guess I will go back."
Deputy Wippy responded, "I guess not;" and Pat
followed his captors to the city, which was reached
without further Incidents worthy of note.
Uulet reigned In Richmond during the night, to all
appearances. But Richmond was, in truth, far from
quiet. During the evening a meeting of the employes
oi tbe despoiled distillers was held, at which repre
sentatives ot the latter were present. The situation
was discussed, and the men who had been thrown out
of employment by tbe result of tbe raid were Informed
where tbey would find the establishments of their
former employers, as soon as they were ready to re
sume operations. Durlug the night many of the dis
tillers who were not disturbed yesterday were hard at
worlc removing tneir suns, a targe number or which
were transported to parts as yet unknown. About
half-oast U o'clock this morning, three wagons loaded
down with stills were observed leaving the neighbor
hood ot Salmon and Williams street, each wagun
being guarded by three men. while a number ot men
and women auletly contemplated this melancholy
lietrira from the sidewalks and doorsteps. It Is pro
bable that the emigrants will settle down in Uuluies
burg aud Munayunk, aud these suburban towns will
then come in lor a ram.
The Richmond Seizures. John Calverly, it
Is alletred. was one of the ringleaders in the attack
upon the United States Marshals on Thursday last,
while endeavoring to seize illicit stills In Port Rich
mond. He was arrested yesterday afternoon for
Interfering with tbe ollicers In the discharge of

Policemen H, Cave and Cramer arrested Charles
McKlvaine, Charles McElwee, and Patrick Carr, at
Klchmoud and Maple streets, on suspicion oi larceny.
They were driving a furniture car with a copper
still aud worm in it. When questioned as to how tney
came In possession of the property, thev stated that a
man In Brldesburg had purchased It and they were
going out to his place. MoEivalne's wife is said to he

Altornry-flcncral Slanbrry Advises (he rroduclloil
or the Boys In Court The Argument Post
poned to Vtxt Snlnrday An Appeal
to the I'nltcd Stairs Hupreme
Court to be Taken.
Iu the Qunrler nesslens this morning, Judges Lud
low, ltrewHter, and l'leroe on the bench, the matter of
tbe Commonweailb vs. Commodore Helfridgo, was
apaUi or on Kht before the public. It will be remem
bered that on last Saturday the argument on tbe ruiea
to show cause why the Commodore should not be
attached for contempt, in refulii(f to obey the orders
of the Court, contained lijthe writ of li aliens corpus
Tor the production, ot the hoys Oorralcy and Kolly,
was continued over until to dav at the request of Mr.
Valentine, who repisented Attorney-General Btau
bery. The request then was for time, In order that the
Attorney-General, lo whom the mnliorwas then re
cently submitted, should have opportunity fuliy to
inveHllgaUi the subject, and properlv to counsel the
United (states officials as to the course they should
pursue. In the meantime It was expected by all that
the great question of JurlMllritlon. which lies behind
all these proceedings, and which It Is very Important
to set right, would to-day he discussed thoroughly,
and therefore this morning the court-room was
crowded, llul the case took a turn that was entirely
unexpected. When the case was cnllud bv Judge
Pieice, Mr. Valentine stepped forward and said:
'May it please your Honors, this case has assumed
such a shape that I suppose much cannot be said In It
this morning. The Commandant has received a des
patch from the (Secretary of the Nary, staling tbat
tbe Attorney-4eneral had Riven it as his oplulon lhat
the boy Gormley should oe produced in Court, and or
dering him to act In accordance with the Attorney
General's views. And he bus produced the boy, who
Is now In Court."
The Court then mentioned tho matter of the rule
to show cause why the Commodore snould not be at
tached. He had refused obodlence to the mandate of
the Court In not complying with the order of the writ.
The matter had been pushed by counuel on the op
posite side, and the continuance from last Saturday
had been granted with tne uuderstandiug that the
Commodore would to-day make his appearance in
Court.
Mr, Valentine replied that he. by tbe request of the
Attorney-General, was acting for and representing
the Commodore. Mr. Valentine then asked leave of
the Court to amend the return made by the Commo
dore lo the writ of habeas corpus, In such manner
that when the matter comes up ll will be tally heard
by this Cuurt, aud. In the eveut of the discharge ot
Gormley, an appeal could be taken to the United
Htates Supreme Court.
At the suggestion ot Mr. O'Byrne, who represents
Gormley, Mr. Valentine assured the Court that tbe
boy would be kept in this lurlsdlctlon.
The Com t then continued the matter over until next
Saturday.
Judge Pierce then called up the case of Michael
Kelly, which is similar to that of Gormley.
Mr. Valentine asked leave to amend the return to
thewrliln this cae also. T he Judge said the lirtt
matter to be disposed of In this case was the rule te
show cause why the Commodore should not be at
tached for contempt,
Mr, Vnientlne said he hoped this matter wonld also
be continued, as the other had. Kelly had not been
pioduced In Court for this reason: when the Com
modore received the despatch ordering him to pro
duce Gormley, be Immediately telegraphed back to
Washington to know whiit was to be done In reler
ence to the others for whom writs ot habeas corpus
had lbsued, and to that telegram no reply had yet
bran received.
Mr. nirst. representing Kelly, read an affidavit nf
tie service of notice ofthe rule upon the Commodore,
and declined to say anything until lie heard lrom the
0 her side.
Mr. Valentine replied that Mr. Hirst need not
have troubled himself to the extent of reading the
allldavlt, us ihe service ofthe notice was not doubted.
But he would remind Mr. H irst of the promplneis ot
Commodore Bellrldge to meet every point in this
case, aud bis earnest desire lo do his full duty; and
ho hoped the court would grant him Indulgence la
tliis as well as the other case.
Judge Pierce said that when the rules were granted
last Saturday, though the Commodore avoweu no dis
respect to tbe Court, yet be had refused to do as oi
di red by the process ot this Court, and rules were
Isi ued lo decide the quest on ot contempt. But now
ho appeared before the Court in un eutlrely different
aspect, and by Hubinitllng himself entirely lo tne
Court, showed himself desirous ot dolug what was
right.
The Court consented to grant a continuance until
next. Hntnrday, as lu GormU y's cane.

JEFF. DA IS' TRIAL.
Speculation About the Trial of Davie
How It Will Proceed Tho Cltlef .1 usllce
the Itesponslble Party "What Will tie
Do with It 1"
Richmond, Va., Oct. 2. Though the Circuit
Court la iu session here, and many cases of vust
Importance are to be trUd, and though, politi
cal matters involving the gravest interests of
the Btate are daily transpiring, still the anxious
and all-pervading topic of the day la the JUavla
trial.
This is discussed with an eagerness and a
fervor that plainly Indicate the feeling aud seu
timent here in relation to tbe great, national
tiial than which that of Booth, the national
assassin, and the other conspirators, including
John B. Wurratt, sinks into comparative In
significance. The speculations aud probable re
sults indulged in would be too tedious to re
late; and us they are no more nor loss than the
anxieties, hopes, and fears of a misguided aud
unfortunately misled people, would be scarcely
worth perusal by your leudars.
The main points, however, may be of Interest
Many are foolish enougu to suppose that Davis
will never be brought to trial; others indulge
the expectation of his release by special par
don from the President, while numbers think:
the Kebel chief never intended to place himself
atthe bar of Injured and insulted Justice to
answer tbe important national charges that
will be brought against him. Auolher class
there Is that say Jell'. Mavis Is safe In Canada
under the protecting iolds of the British Hag,
as are Mason, Benjamin, and a host of other
Kebcls whose Uvea are forfeited by their
treason.
This class, who can be called Union men of
the order ol Botts and others who were neutral
during the war, rather think the Kebel ohlet
will slip his straw bail and leave his volunteer
bondsmen to foot the bill of his recognizance to
U nolo Ham. Indeed, some go so far as to assert
that arrangements have been already made
and contracts entered into to place Jell, beyond
the reach of loyal bands wbo may bring him to
Justice, or aspiring volunteer friends who might
possibly, in a strait, shield him from the
rigorous deiuands of an indignant people.
These are all, however, mere speculations,
according to the feelings, passions or prejudices
01 tbe parties expressing them, and have no
other foundation whatever. The question, as I
telegraphed you, of his trial, has been detiultely
settled, and in this way, at leaHl, the nation
will be satisfied. Whether this trial will be a
farce, or whether it will be merely a renewal of
the straw bail, or even whether the arcb-traitor
will be convicted and sentenced ae his crimes
ucmand, are all question that time and events
must decide.
One thing Is settled aud certain, tbat Davis
will arrive in this city, the former seat of his
temporary government, on November 1; he will
take the identical rooms at the Hpottswojd
Hotel previously occupied bv him, Nos 121 and
I'i ahe same aitorwards occupied by General
Grant and subsequently by no less a personage
than Andrew Johnsou. with Wm. U. Seward,
vt hich is quite a remarkable coincidence, both
being Presidents under remarkable aud pecu
liar clroumstances.
Tbe next question that suggests Itself is, will
the trial talieplaoe? This must be decided by
Chief Justice Chase, who will also probably be
a guest of the Hpottswood, for he has expressed
hfii intention of presiding at the national trial.
Mow the fall term of the November Court com
mences bore on the list. The Chief Justice will
be here; he will open the Court; Davis will be
present: ihe case will be called; counsel for de
fense will demand trial; tbe Government, under
instructions, will plead nut ready; counsel will
steadily plead for trial, and, unless tbe Chief
Justice rules dlflerently, a nolle prosequi will be
entered and obtained, or the final discuarge of
the national prisoner will be elleoted.
This ends the speculation on this grave and
national subleot, and t he whole resolves itself
almply into the onestlou: Has Chase the moral
courage to try Davis, or will he endeavor to
make oapltal for the next Presidency by releas
ing the national prisoner on his straw ball, or
effectually discharge blin on the twite prosequi
that will be entered by his counsel? Here rests
the whole question of the great Davis trial,
whloh the nation at large demands to be an
swered by the presiding Justice ol the Supreme
Court of the United SUles.
in the meantime the ottloers of tbe United
States Circuit Court are arranging the prelimi
naries for the trial of Jelloi sou Davis ou th,a hit

IWRSE-CAR CASUAL T Y.
Frffflitful Ilor-Car Accident In Brok
1 j A Passenger Car Ilreaka Loose on
a Herwn Urs, sad I Terribly Mast
ercd In tho Final Collision A Cadjr
Killed Other Passenger Severely In
Jured. A yortng tady met her death and several por
tions were more or less cut and bruised, yester
day morning, by one of thoae accidents whloh
not unfrequeuliy happen to- horse cars which
pass down steep gr.tues with- heavy load-). The
accident yesterday morning occurred on car
No. 14 of the Fifth avenue and Atlantlo street
line. It was passing dtwn Atlantlo street to
wards the ferry with thirty-seven passengers,
part of whom were ladles, and in consequence
of the beavy load considerable force had to bo
used on tbe brake to check its speed.
When reaching the corner of Hicks street,
however, the brake gave way, and the oar being
entirely loose, Its motion became very rapid.
The conductor tried in vain to oheokltm pro
gress with the brake on the rear platform, and
called upon the passengers to assist him. All
the strength they could apply did not' have the
least effect, and it is believed that, as well a
the forward brake, had broken or was out o-f
order. The pssseugers soon became thoroughly
aware of their perilous position, aud the
greater the velocity of tbe car the more terrified
they became. The horses were not at first de
tached, and the car ran upon their heels, causlng
them to kick and dash forward lu a frightful
manner.
Ultimately they became loosened, probably
through their kicking aud pluuglug, and the
cur, uncontrolled, went down the grade faster
Than steam could have taken it. Home of tbe
passengers Jumped from the platform, sotn
clung to the car with a tenacity only possible
when death seomed to them inevitable, while
others shrieked to the top of their voices. Those
who Jumped from tbe car wore the least fortu
nate. A young lady named Miss Emma Let
ding, residing in fcourleenib. street, near Hlxtli
avenue, was among several who Jumped oir.
The motion of the car was so great lhatsue was
thrown violently upon the oobble stones and
sustained a fracture of the skull. (She wa
picked up, and died while being conveyed to
the Long Island Colleue Hospital, which is but
a short distance from thoscene of the aooldent
Others who Jumped off were badly bruised
but not seriously injured. The car was but a'
few seconds lu reaching the loot of the hill a
distance of about six blocks. The traok at this
point passes from Atlantlo Into Furman street
but the car was going with too great foroe to
follow it and ran off, striking an awning-nost
on the opposite side of the street, which It
smashed to splinters, and then landed upon
the sidewalk, throwing the passengers in a pro
miscuous heap upon the floor, the platform, and
the street.
Doubtless a greater number would have been
killed outright or fatally Injured but for tbe
fact that tbe crowd in the car was so great that
It was almost impossible for them to move.
One man had his hand terribly out. and several
others were bruised, but they all considered
themselves extremely fortunate to escape with
their lives and without any broken bones. The'
car was pretty well smashed up. The top was
broken oft' aud It was otherwise shattered jV.

WHAT WILL FOLLOW THE ELECTIONS ?
Tho following speculations are quoted from
the Washington coriespondence of the Ciucia-
nait uazeue:
At present those who are urging Mr, Johnson to
extreme measures are assuring uim that the people
are with him and will manifest It at tbe coining con
test. From all parts of Ohio letters are pouring la
upon him. asuertiug that the power of the .Kepubll
cans is brokeu, Hint the reaction in his favor is un
mistakable, and that the musses are iooking to him
tor vigorous action sguitist the Kadicals. Tbe purpose
of eueh tellers Is evident. They are expected to
rave the way to the Inauguration oi extreme measures
J I, throngh the apathy of Republicans, these H tales
show large opposition gains, the country may look
for more marked dwpluys ol the President's hale of
the Union party than It has yet been allowed to
ohperve. Those voters who become responsible for
such gains may also have to answer lor the lollowlng
things: 1. The removal ot Ueueral Uraut from' tbe
War ulllce, aud the appointment ot a man who can
be relied upon by Mr. Johnson la any emergency. 2.
The disruption of the present Cabinet, and Its re
organization In such a way as to Include boulhorn
Iteoels, lieniocraiH, aud Northern Copperheads- and
further, so as to place the Treasury la the hands or
the various coiubluutloiiB wbli-li pave been seeklna to
obtain control oi lis luuds ever since atr. Johnson's
defection. To every mau Interested to any extent
iu having the credit of tbe country malntalued thli
Is ol pjite as much Importance as any m ma 'con.
neeted with the pollilcal situation, s. oJutrresa
might check the President In the maddest career
but It couid not restore what these political robbers
would abstract if ouly they were left free for a slmrle
month. 4. The removal of Ueueral Howard which
will be sure lo follow any change In the bead of the
War Department: the wrong which would be done to

u.c,u..,.uty, tuo u-iruuuuis uere, with
a view to get rid ot all the radical, and fill then
places with men who, at least, would not lakeside
with Congress in case ol any trouble.
Tbesecond section of the Army Appropriation bill
fixing the headquarters of the General ot the Armv
at WashliiKlon, contaliis this clause: me Ueueral
of the Army shall not be removed, suspended, or
relieved from command, or assigned to duty else
where than at said neadquarters, except at hlj own
request, without the previous cousent of the Senate."
Wow. while the intention of this was to prevent Mr
Johnson from depriving General (irant of his oilice"
without consulting the Henate, these friends of the
President claim that he can. at any time, order
Oeneral Grant Into military arrest, which would de
prive him ot his command at ouce, and that the pro
position to "suspend" does not preclude an arrest. Of
course, the arrest must be preceded by a cause, and
that could easily be found by Mr. Johnson inditlne
an order to the District Commanders, which Ueueral
Grant would feel called npon to refuse to transmit
1 he fact that In Executive circles this matter Is a sub
ject ot conversation, la or Itself significant.
1 he situation with respect to the Oouiber elections
Is almost an exact counterpart of tbe position a vaar
ago. Then Mr. Johnson bad very nearly matured a

The cry of all the Administratlon:papers here, that

even greater now than it was twelve mouthe
Mr. Johnson has taken several aggressive steus!
Unless he tukes others, eveu his supporters will rlrti
