At the Board Of Trade Rooms last evening
an address was delivered on tho postal telegraph
by Gardner G: Hubbard, of Boston. In the
course of his remarks ho referred to the fact
that tho rates were in this country from twice to
eight times as high as in Europe, and maintained
that a reduction and equalisation of the charges
would have the elToct of greatly extendiug the
sphere of usefulness of the telegraph, as at pre-
jr sent it is only used by certain classes of bml-
netig. ,

Philadelphia, May 15, 1808 Dear Sir:
I address myself to you in preference, because
you have known me a longer period than any of
the other gentlemen who old me the honor ot
meeting me at Mr. 8artain's, and from a convic
tion that you will justify mo in case my motives
should be misinterpreted by any one. I cer
tainly appreciate the sympathy and kindness
which prompted yon nnd the other signers of
the testimonial which you handed me, but can
find no reasons which entitle me to such con
sideration. Feeling highly honored by tho
warm interest thus manifested towards me, I
sincerely trust that it will not bo construed into
false pride that 1 think it to be my duty to
decline the pecuniary part of this testimonial.
as self-respect will not permit me to accept that
to wuicn l ieei I nave no claim whatever.
Although not independent, yet 1 have in my
more sunny days laid up a little tor the rainy
ones to come; besides, i am still aoie to work.
and think, as I always thought, that as long as a
man can provide for himself he has no excuse to
tax others for his wants. I entreat you to pre
sent to these gentlemen my declining of their
generous gift in such a way that they will take
no offense, because it would grieve me most
deeply should I lose only a portion of their
esteem and friendship, which I so highly prize
Hoping that you will do me this great favor, and
continue towards mo the same cordial feelings
which you have always shown, and which are so
Ereclous to me, ana trusting tuat snouia there

will excuse it, l remain, with the greatest respect,
nnd with deep feelings of gratitude, your most

command of the school,, with. Brevet Brigadier
Gcneial J. h. Roberts, Lieutenant-Colonel 4th
Artillery, and Brevet Brigadier-General William
Hays, Major 5th Artillery, as Instructors. '
Utirlng the summer months the school was
occiplei with 4 practical . Artillery, mounting
hiaty ordnance, manufacturing shells, and the
thonsand-and-one details with which they should
all be familiar. During the winter mouths the
studies were confined to theoretical artillery,
embracing engineering, ordnance, and gunnery,
military and civil law, etc. The recltatlou of
these branches were very severe, and the awards
of ehch man's standing were made out in a
similar manner to those at West Point. The
annual examination having just been com
pleted, General Sherman signified his intention
of visiting the school, and arrived here this
a. m. tie was met on the whart oy tne uene
ral commanding and staff, and a number of
the officers of the school, who accompanied
him Into tho fort. At 9 o'clock A. M. a salute of
seventeen guns was fired in honor of his arrival,
nd at 10 A. AI. the troops were reviewed oy
General Sherman. He made a close inspection
of the men, examined their quarters, and became
thoroughly acquainted with everything aoout
the tort.
The General expressed himself highly pleased
with everything he saw, and shortly afterwards
repaired to headquarters, where ho received tho
officers of the school and their friends. At 5
o'clock in the evening the band of the artillery
school, which, by the wav, deserves more than a
passingnotice,stationed themselves in front of the .
hall where the diplomas were being presented,
and began playing some beautiful operatic
music. The ha'll, which is large and nicely
fitted up, soon filled up with the officers and
their friends. General Barry then arose and
made a short but pertinent address to the officers
of the school. He spoke of the past year as
being one of hard study to them, but hoped they
had profited by their sojourn here, and In after
years would look back with pride and pleasure
upon the time spent at this post. He alluded to
the fact that in a few days the officers would
leave to rejoin their respective regiments, and
hoped that they would still continue to study
and advance In the noble science of artillery.
He expressed his regrets at parting with them,
and hoped that success and promotion might
attend them.
General Sherman then stepped forward to tho
table, on which were placed the diplomas, and
said that before going through the mechanisal
operation of presenting each man with his
diploma, he had a few words to say to them,
though he did not eome here with the intention
of making a speech. He came here to sco the
artillery school. It had been organized when he
was out West. He thought he had read the
orders under which it was organized, but he had
;iven it uttic thought at the time, lie thought
t was a good idea, and when he came East he
examined into it a little closer. He thought the
young men of the present day should be thank-
lui tor the opportunity thus ottered by our (iov
crnment for the improvement of the officers of
this branch of the service.
He regretted that such a school was not in
existence when he was young, aud wished that
ho knew as much about artiliery now as did
some of those now before him. lie then brielly
reverted to the developments iu this branch of
the service; how, in years agoue, it had been the
height of his ambition to command a six-gun
battery, nnd to be a brevet-major of artillery was
the highest of earthly honors. He urged the
officers not to drop their studies when they left
school, but to keep at it, and both by study and
observation to keep pace with the times in
which we live.
He could well remember when a twentv-four
pounder was a very large gun. Now they had
ten and ntteen-lnch guns, throwing shot and
shell of ponderous weight, and it required a
great deal of time and study to keep up with the
!. . . i-1 . i i . ir.
improvi-incuts in mis ciiuguieucu itfic. iic
charged them all to sustain the reputation for
which the old regular army was so famous, and
that upon their individual exertions this nil de
pended. After a fow further remarks pertinent
to tho occasion, he proceeded to call the roll of
the graduating class and present each with his
diploma, as follows:
J. Al. Jv. Davis, second Llcnt., f irst Artillery.
J. P. Sanger, First Lieut., First Artillery,
brevet Major.
1. T. Ihomburg, Second Lieut., Second Ar
tillery.
B. F. Rittcnliouse, First Lieut., Fifth Artil
lery, brevet Major.
J. L. Tiernon, First Lieut., Third Artillery.
G. B. Rodnev, First Lieut., Fourth Artillery.

C. P. Eakin, First Lieut., First Artillery, bre
vet Major.
C. T. Bisscll, First Lieut., Second Artillery,
brevet Captain.
B. F. Ryer, First Lieut., Second Artillery.
The General then expressed himself highly
pleased with the proficiency to which the offi
cers had attained, nnd stated that they had
accomplished even more than ho had antici
pated. The officers of the school will all leave in a
day or two for their new field of duty, and
others will come to take their places. When
the new officers arrive, they will bo thoroughly
examined on all the different branches, in order
to arrive at a proper estimate of their progress
during the coming season.
General Sherman, it is understood, will visit
the Navy Yard at Portsmouth, Va., to-morrow,
and return to Washington oy way oi Kiciimonu

The "Woolly Home" Keillvivii.
There was a great deal of fun in the Tombs
Police Court, New York, yesterday, when tho
prosecution brought out Its closing testimony lu
the great Mumler case. Abraham Bogardus, a
photographer, was on the stand, and testified
that he was familiar with photography, when
counsel for defense procured a Bible, aud read
chapter twenty-eight of First Samuel,
lie then linked witness whether lie believed
that the spirits there described possessed voices
and forms. Counsel for prosecution objected
that this was a criminal and not a theological
examination, and that witness was there to testify
as a photographer, and not as a theological
student. More Bible tests were then read by
the defense, but tho Court overruled them nil.
The great P. T. Barnum was next examined, aud
his testimony kept tho Court and audience in
constant good humor. At times it looked more
as if a play was being enacted, rather than pro
ceedings in a police court. His testimony Is ex
ceedingly interesting, and we give it, therefore,
in full. . Here it is:
I have devoted a portion of my life to tho de
tection oi iiumuugs; i nave never had a per
sonal interview with Mr. Mumler: I have known
hiin by reputation for seven years (at this point
tho counsel for defense fought every inch of
grouuu wiui uuer uesperation, every question
being objected to aud argued fully: t had some
correspondence with him; I do not know where
tho letters now are, but I think perhaps they
were bin ned in the Museum. 1 have searched for
them, but could not find them; those letters
were dated In Boston, and the Mumler to whom
I wrote j was in the employ of Bigelow Broth
ers tJs i Kenward, the large jewellers; I
do not1 rememlier hU first name; I corres
ponded I with hlni subsequently; , all the
letters were dated from Boston; I wrote to Mum
ler, saying that I wished to expose
all tho humbugs of the world; he sent ino a lot
of photographs which he had left- over (tha
thing wa played out In Bobton by that time),
aud I paid him about 10 apiece; they repre
sented "Colorado Jcwett, Heury Clay, and Na
poleon Bonaparte; they were lahlli im "snlrit-
I ual humbugs,' and in my book I dovotod one
enapior , to me -manner uimiDug; 1 believe in
"spooks;" It is very easy to see them if you only
believe in them; I went to Mr. Bogardus yester
day, and asked him to take my photograph with
a spirit on it; I could detect no fraud on his part,
although I watched hiin vloeclyi the spirit on
my photograph was that of the departed Abra
ham Lincoln; 1 didn't feci any spiritual presence.
Cross-examined I . have never been in the
humbug business; I have always given the people
the worth of their money; the Woolly Horse was
a remarkable curiosity; It was exactly wh it I
represented it to .be it was not a horse woolled
overj I am glad to enlighten the public on this
Folnt; there was no deception about it whatever;
did not intend to humbug the public in that
matter; the horse was exhibited just as it was
born; the mermaid was represented to me to be
what I represented it to be to the public, and I
have never been disabused of the idea; tho mer
maid was presented to the public as I believed it
to be; I never owned it; I hired it; I have never
taken money for things that I had misrepre
sented; I may have draped one or two of my
curiosities slightly; the nurse ot General Wash
ington was bona JUU; I had a bill of sale for her;
I have endeavored gonerally not to have a very
profound belief in what I did not actually know
to be just so; I paid $1000 for her; I believed in
her at first, but subsequently may have had a
little doubt about her; I never put myself out
of the way to disabuse the public, even after
I began to doubt tho genuineness of the old
lady; I have seen Miiniler's writing, and think
I would know it now if I saw it; I can't
say how many letters passed between ns; I
think it was seven years ago; there were three
or four letters, just enough to complete the
transaction; Mr. Kcnnard told me abont tho
Mumler humbug; he said that Mumler had been
"selling" the Boston people, bnt was getting
"played out;" he said ho was a sharp fellow, and
advised me to negotiate with him for an addi
tion to my stock of humbugs; my book speaks
of the photograph humbug, but at the request of
cither himself or employer I did not publish
his name; when I called on Mr. Bogardus yes
terday, I asked him to bring down tho spirit of
Joyce 1 lentil, Washington's nurse, but he said
he could not do it, as tho old lady's vitality was
somewhat exhausted. Much of Mr. Barnum's
testimony was greeted with laughter, so that the
scene was anything but court-like.
