Murine Hon! I Capture the Flllbrmtor on (Jurdlnrr'it InIhuu. From the X. V. World of to-day. Since the capture of a largo portion of tlM filibus tering expedition which attempted to leave this port, about lf)(i or 2i0 stragglers who escaped have had their rendezvous on Gardiner's Island, commanded, it is Paid, by Colonels Kyan and Curler. It Is also supposed that these men have held communication with persons working In the Interest of this Cubans on shore, and that they havo only been waiting for an opportunity to escape ami fro to Cuba. Marshal 1 arlow, however, concluded that since the 200 fili busters arrrsti-d had all been discharged, those re maliiiiig on Gardiner's Island would not object to being brought on" and disposed of In like iiuuiner. Accordingly, on Tuesday afternoon last, ho sent three DeputvJMarshals and twelve marines, by the revenue culler Mahoning, to Gardiner's Island, to bring the tlllmisters away. On arriving there they frund upwards of 150 men, but Colonels Kyan and Curler were not to be seen. The filibusters posl tivelv refused to give themselves up, and the Deputy Marshals telegraphed to (ieneral Harlow fur further Instructions. Yesterday afternoon, (Ieneral Harlow, acting en the authority of his commission from Pre sidctil Grunt, empowering him to call out the mill tary forces, ordered thirty-tight more marines from the Brooklyn Navy Yard, making tlrty In all, who at once proceeded to the stronghold of the filibusters by the steamer Rocket. The Rocket Is reported to have been seen at Gardiner's Island this morning, but the Marshal has heard nothlngof the movements of the men, though ho is quite anxious to ascertain what has been going on. Unless tho filibusters) de cided to surrender, it is quite probable thut a serious encounter has taken place ere this. JAPAN. The ('bongos that are MnklnK In that Kniplrc. A correspondent of the Allgemeine Zeitung at Na gasaki gives some curious Information as to the present state of atlairs In Japan. He says that although the principal daimios have all agreed to abdicate their power in favor of the Mikado, their acts are not In accordance with their professions, and it is probable that before long Japan will again lie plunged Into a civil war as disastrous as that which has Just terminated. Many of the daimtos, and Satsuma In particular, are deeply In volved in debt, notwithstanding which they continu ally buy arms and ships in large quantities. The real reason of the submission of the daimios was that the princes of the south, who led the rebellion Against the Tycoon, and eventually conquered him, were unable to agree as to the division of the spoil, and consequently made over the Tycoon's revenues to the Mikado. Most of these revenues proceed from confiscated property in the north of the Island, where many of the daimios are secret adherents of the Tycoon ; and the southern princes knew that If they divided this property among themselves they would not be able to defend It against their enemies. As it Is, the Mikado is totally dependent on the southern diamios, who furnish him with the funds necessary to carry on the Government, anil any dis putes among them are Just as likely to produce a civil war as before. Under the new system the Tycoon, or temporal sovereign, Is to be abolished, and a confederation not unlike that which formerly prevailed in Ger many to be created, with the Mikado, or spiritual sovereign, at its head. This arrangement, though It promises little for the maintenance of order, has at least one advantage for European merchants in Japan. Instead of the two sovereigns, with powers and responsibilities so vague that no European could understand which of them was really re sponsible for the due execution of treaties and the conduct of oillciuls, there will now be a single government" with a tangible head. Europeans may now expect some reform in the system of currency, which has brought on them so many severe losses. Under the treaties of 1806 the silver coin (boo) was to be 134 grains in weight, nine-tenths of which were to consist of pure silver; but the quantity of silver in the coins actually In circulation has always been much less. The reason of this Is that hitherto there has been no government mint, the money having been coined under the direction of individual daimios, who of course do not consider themselves bound by treaties. The NeaKile. Daily prayer-meetings arc now held at Cape May. The Ocean House, Newport, gave a brilliant re ception last Saturday evening. Miss Anthony should look after Newport and the other sea-side resorts, where gentlemen have several hours more allotted to them on the beach than ladies. Tuesduys and Fridays are "Fort Days" at New port t. everybody drives to the fort. The Cape May people have found out that a Miss Ellet was the first person who came to Unit place for health. This was in 1796. when there were but five houses on Cape Island. The party were entertained by the mother of a lady still living on the island. General Cad walader, of New Jersey, and his three daughters arc at Howland'B, Long Branch. The Cape May Wave says: "In one respect we, in this country, are far behind the watering places of Germany. We have no public gambling halls where the sexes mingle at the same tables and stake their money on the hazard of the die." May we never catch up to them, Mr. Wane. A ball club has been organized at the Continental, Long Branch. Mad'lle Kmille Knauss delights the guests of the Continental at the Branch by her performances on the piano-forte.

Over 20,000 people were en the beach at Long Branch last Sunday. The greatest "swell" at the watering places the swell of the ocean, of course. Most of the air at the summer resorts is "put on" by the guests. Every train of cars and every steamboat brings additional visitors to the Island Cape, while the trains and boats going away are tilled with empty seats.

West Virginia Itepulillcans are Indignant be cause they think the President intends to despatch the rejected Carlisle upon some foreign mission.

He found ulnmt one hundred and fifty houses there, mrfny of them sub stantial buildings, with stores that had already sild goods to the amount of two hundred thousand dol lars. What Is more, Just outside of the village, double the amount of Improvement is going on. The town of Perry, on the Des Moines Valley Kail read, had Inst March three houses in It. Now there are fifty-five houses and nearly three hundred In habitants, and yet the railroad ouly re.u:h"d there last week. iira I'aper. The I'rnch Crop.

The Chinamen. They seem In earnest In the Mississippi Valley about the Chinese. A company with 1,(Kmi,ik)0 capi tal Is )irp(Ked and the coolies are to come. The problem so long pressing for a solution must be solved, and John Chinaman will do It. In spite of laws and customs, he crosses the Pacific and lands at San Francisco. First confined to the coast, he has riushed inland, has looked upon his coppir-colored irnther at his devotions on the Hue of the Pacific Kailroad, and his almond eyes are familiar to the schoolboys of the prairie villages of Kansas and Illinois. We know his face there. But It Is as a cigar vender, quiet, reticent, and orderly. The next emigration that comes here will bring to us house hold servants, and the faaiilies of New York will tuke the pagans under their roofs, for whoso moral growth they have sent millions of dollars abroad. These Chinese are acknowledged to be frugal, In dustrious, nnd skilled. They are a class of labor that is needed, ami it is the very height and folly of demagoguism and intolerance to oppose their coming. A. '. Commercial. ItnffnlocH I'niiii'-Strlcken. A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune writes from Sheridan, Kansas: "Vast herds of buffalo graze along the line of the railroad, and are frequently seen from the cars, and not unfreqneutly so near that many are shot with ritles In the hands of passengers while the cars are in motion. Yesterday we saw upwards of thirty by actual count, about a half mile oil". We also saw several elk and antelope, and one wolf, and dined on venison and bullnlo steak. Sometimes a large herd has been surprised near the track by a train of cars. The shrieking of the whistle ami the rushing of the tram has produced such a panic of fear, that the herd has rushed pell-mell along, in the same direction with the train, and at almost as great, speed, thus affording splendid opportunity for snoot ing from the cars, ni one case the engine killed several which were on the track. Numerous car casses are seen of the noble animals, which have been slaughtered and left to perish along the line of the road, from Ellsworth to Sheridan. Sheridan has about one thousand inhabitants, principally transient trudebiuen and hotel and boarding-house keepers." In the Wrong Box. A few days since a young couple, just married at Waterbury, Ct., got on board a train on the Nauga tuck road, bound for Bridgeport. They had a sweet time, billing and cooing in proper style, until the train reached the Junction. While waiting there the groom took a stroll on the platform, and the bride also improved the time to walk to the forward end of the car. As -the train started she Kturned, and seeing her husbund, as she supposed, seated com fortably, she popped into the same Beat, and lov ingly rested her head on his shoulder, while the cars passed through the covered bridge. Unfortunately she had mistaken her man, ami, as the cars emerged from the bridge a trembling voico whispered In her car that he didn't quite comprehend the situation. Looking up, the bride found an unknown blushing ystith, while her liege lord was standing in the aisle, with a look of blank astonishment on his face, not knowing whut to make of "such conduct as those." The error was coriected at once, but the fun was too much for the other occupants of the car, and every sleeve contained an enormous, though quiet, luitgh. Another Sin which ItriuliRiii .Mum Answer For. The San Francisco Morning Call tells this story: "A young man named Kichard W. Cooke, a native of Iowa, was examined before the Commissioner of Lunacy, on the charge of Insanity. During the in vestigation the mother of the unfortunate man stated that she was a niece of Dr. Warren, author of 'Ten Thousand a Year,' and had followed her hus band to Illinois, thence to Iowa, and finally to Utah, as the wandrlngs of the Mormons, to whom he had allied himself, necessitated, in Utah they accuuiu lated considerable property, which, as Is generally the case in MoriiKindoin, was given to Brighain Young for safe-keeping. Even the deeds to every piece of real estate owned by Cooke were in some manner or other mixed up with Brlgham Young. "About one year ago the husband and father died, . and then the family began to look about to see what belonged to them ; but, turn which way they would, they could find nothing without Brlgham Young hail not only a claim upon it, but also a vested right In It. After numerous Interviews, the widow and children were informed that'all the property she believed to lie her husband's, and which she had helped to earn, belonged to other parties, and that she bad nothing in the world. This Intelligence aitllcted the poor woman sadly, but its influence upon her son was still more sad. He became greatly excited, and it was with the greatest exertion he could be pro vented from seeking out those who had been instru mental In despoiling him of his birthright, taking the law into his own hands, and wreaklug upon them the vengeance of an outraged and tutterlug reason. "So terrible did the anguish of the young man be come, and so fearful that he would be guilty of some tragic act did the mother become, that she gathered together such funds as she could and went to Cali fornia, in hopes that a change of scenery and climate would restore him to his normal condition. She ar rived there three weeks ago, but the change she fondly hoped for did not tuke place. Her sou's fierce and excited manner gave way, but not to reason. He has been Bent to Stockton.'' (rent Conflagration. A terrible connagratlon has been raging for the last two weeks In All-Haluts' Parish, Horry county. South Carolina. It broke out near the upper end of Ocean Bay, not far from the seashore, aud has burned over a dlstauce of nearly twenty miles. The breadth of the tire is unknown. The country through which it passed Is literally burned up. Swamp after swamp has been made bare of all undergrowth, and the trees and timber completely destroyed. The sa vannahs, with the turpentine boxes, are made sterile wastes. The hot, dry weather rendered it Impossi ble to check the onward march of the flames. It was still burning last Saturday. Twenty thou sand turpentine boxes have been burned. Thu earth Is left bare behind the lire. The cattle range Is destroyed for the season; the deer unsheltered, and the bears aud rattlesnakes made to seek a new hiding rluce or to be destroyed by the tire. Ills ebtlmuted that over 100,000 acres of laud havo been burned over. At night the heavens were brilliant from the lurid flames, aud the clouds of smoke that arose by day were but portents of the llery storm beneath. To this fire can lie attributed the hazy ap pearance of the atmosphere throughout the South east for the past week. Ciimiintali Chronicle. rEABOUY. Ilia Miinllicciice Kniiiiiied I'l.

LGAL INTELLIOEKCG. Court ef Quarter Sessions Judge Pelree. This morning the attention or the Court and jury was engaged with the trial of the girl Anna J. Haw kins, upon the charge of poisoning the lloir family last month. There were seven bills of lndlctmect, charging her with assault and battery with intent to kill. The facts have appeared In our local columns, and are briefly these: The prisoner, who Is but sixteen years of age, has been living In the family of John lloiT, No. 404 N. Eleventh street, for two years and a half, being apprenticed as a servant. Generally she ap peared contented with her position, but on some occasions ghe was guilty of misconduct, which brought upon her chastisement and threats of fur ther punishment, arid these latter hail been made aizalnst her just previously to this occurrence. On the 21st of June she purchased yeas and sifted flour, and with these bread was baked The family ate it, and seven persons were niade vio lently sick. The physician attending them feared that they had taken poison, and aroused suspicion against the prisoner. It was thought that the trouble arose from the flour, aud the gentlemen from whom It was bought were questioned, but declared that It was free from poison, none of the other numerous customers who had used it being at all affected. Finally, when Mrs. Holt" recovered she Interrogated the prisoner, who, in a penitential manner, confessed that sho had put arsenic into the bread, and was very sorry she had done so. At first she said she did not have any motive for the act, but subsequently, that It was because punishment had been threatened against her. Keyond this confession, no direct proof of the actual presence of poison in the bread was otl'ered, there belug no witness who had made an examina tion of It; and this circumstance, together with tho question of intent, was argued by tte prisoner's counsel in favor of tier acquittal. No testimony was ottered by the defense. Jury out. MINUS A WIFE. 41 The Troubles nnd Trials of a Plillndelidiiiin. 'Vow the Harttrrd Cottrant, July 1(5. A Philadelphia married man, who has a young and pretty wife, of whom he became considerably jealous, started her oil last week with her ouly child to visit her grandparents, who reside In tho eastern part of Connecticut, (she has an aunt living in this city, and stopped here to visit a day or two before repairing to tho calm, secluded spot which her hus band had designed for her. On the day follow ing her arrival she made the acquaintance of a travelling merchant, who had lrieuds living where the aunt resides, aud intimate relations, from some cause or other, sprung up, which have led to the enactment of a scenu not set down in tne original bills. On Friday she started, as her aunt supposed, for Norwich, on the 2 P. M. train ; but at the same time that she was pro paring to take a carriage to the depot, the travelling chap was paying his bill at the United (States Hotul lu oi der to meet her elsewhere. It was subsequently ascertained that they did go otr on the Lastern train, but np to Suturday night there had been no arrival at tho domicile of the grand parents in East tern Connecticut, and the suppoa tion is that uu elopement la bwlng pretty extensively carried out on a short acquaintance. What the Philadelphia hus band will do about it Isn't certain; at any rale, he may console himself with the reflection that If he had kept his wife at home, she wouldn't have be haved any worse than she has now. DAK HOBBEKS. An Ingenious Attempt to It oh a National nank in Mew York. This special despatch from Sandy Hill, N. Y., yev terday, Is published In the New Yoik rimes ol to day '1 he attenit to rob the First National Bank of this place, on Wednesday night, was second only In point, of completeness of preparation to the great Ocean Bank robbery In New York. The robbers were foiled only because of the time required t g.t Into the vault, ami by the too free use of gunpow der. They succeeded lu blowing the safe optti, but were driven away, having aroused people by the noise of the explosion, with only a few hundred dol lars in revenue stamps as their entire booty. The explosion Insido the vault set some of the papers on fire, but the books and vouchers were saved, ami the bank is In sound condition. The burglars loft a lage collection of fine tools. LI iirtber Particulars of the nurxlury. From the Troy Time, July 10. We yesterday made a brief annonnenmeut of tho ntiacK made upon the vault of the First National Bunk at Handy Hill by burglars on the previom night, and now. through the kindness of Mr. Lewis, of the firm of Lewis A bterluu, of this city, are aide to lay the full particuiais of tho iiitiiniienuii oeiore our readers. .Mr. Lewis was sent for by telegraph yesterday morning to go up ami look over the wreck, with the view to r paiting the bank vault, and returned to tho cliy this morning. The burglars were six or eight sttong. They entered the bank by means of false keys, and commenced operations probably about midnight. About 3 o'clock A. M. a family living in a house adjoining the bank were awakened by the explosion of the vault, and saw a man standing upon the sidewalk. The hotel keeper was also aroused, but supposed the report wus caused by a clap of thunder or a stroke of light ning. The family were too much frightened to give the alnri, and permitted the burglars to continue their operations u ndisturlicd. The first report arose from the explosion caused by blowing open the vault doors. Tho vault was built of stone. The burglars dug out the top wall, and, filling the aperture with powder, tuiched It otr The doors were blown oil', and fell upon the floor. The safe one of Bacon's steel safes stdl remained to be opened before the rascals could realize the fruits of their toll. Wedges were forced between the doors, nnd a charge of powder In serted. The explosion tore out the whole front of the safe, scattering the books and papers about the vault. The family first alarmed now managed to limner up enough courage to rattle the window blinds, and the man on watch outside blew a blast of alarm on a horn which he carried, which brought his companions out of the building on Hie double quick. The night was very dark, and the people In tho house could not distinguish the clothes or features of the robbers. Seeing the numbers of the burglars, they were now more fright ened than ever, aud dared not venture from the house. (So no alurm was given niitti about half an hour afterward, when Patrick Kelly, who was going home after a night's debauch, staggered along past the bank, saw the broken windows in the building nnd a tire burning within, and ran down to the hotel and aroused t ho Inmates, Coon entering tho bank it was found that the ignited powder had set lire to the books aud papers of tne Institution, and a large opening had been burned in the Hour. The tire wus extinguished, ami an Investigation made of the extent of the night's operations. The vault and safe were found blown open as described, the building was much shattered and the windows blown out; but the inner safe con taining the money of the bank was still Intact con sequently the burglars had secured nothing for their labor. Half an hour more of undisturbed occupation of the premise, and they would have cleaned the Institution entirely out; but some frightened woman rattling on tho blinds scared away six or eight armed villains, bent upon the commission of a great crime. Such is the fear of the law aud b s conse quences. It seems the burglars had first tried to open the vault by placing un indicator under the dial to steal the combination, for upon taking tho dial otr yesterday, Mr. Lewis discovered the presence of the tell-tale. But this plan did not work, and the other expedient of blowing the doors otr was resorted to. This is the fourth attempt that has been made within a few years to enter the Sundy Hill banks, and like all the previous ones, It proved unsuccessful, so far, at least, as reaching tho funds of tho Institution. This time, however, they came nearer to It than ever before, and the frightened women and Pat Kelly deserve to be liberally rewarded by the bank folks. . LAFAYETTE COLLEGE.

Saturday, July 17, 1SS9. I The uncomfortable closeness which has charac terized our local nionsy market during the present month Is gradually passing away. The demand for money continues active, with occasional pressure, but business men seem to procure all they want from one source or other, provided they are -disposed to submit to the severe exactions of the street lenders. The currency temporarily withdrawn from our market is beginning to return somewhat freely, so that the difficulty of obtaining funds at any price no longer exists, but the rates continue very firm con sidering the condition of the market, which Is owing to the activity prevailing on the stock board. Call loans are firm and active at 7 per cent and discounts at ttia'll per cent, for Urst-cluss business paper. The Gold market opened weak to-day at 135V, and was quoted at Whvlun Brothers' at noon at 135.V. In Government loans the transactions are small and no change in prices quoted at the close of yes terday. The Stock market wai dull, with very little change lu prices. State loans were quiet at quotations. City Blxes were firm at 94 for the old and XWJi for the new. Reading Railroad was quiet at 467i, a decline of '. Pennsylvania Railroad sold at 66Ji ; Mlnehlll at 53i ; Lehigh Vallev Railroad at 50',', no change. 43 was bid for Little Schuylkill ; 87' for Catawlssa pre ferred ; aud 81 H for Philadelphia and Erie. In Canal stocks tho only sales wore of Lehigh Navigation at 60, with 21 ' bid for fchuylkill Naviga tion preferred, and 10 for the common. In Bank, Coal, and Passenger Railway shares there were no transactions worthy of notice, and prices remain without any quotable change. PHILADELPHIA STOCK EXC1IANGK SALES.

The following extracts show the state of the York money market yesterday : w From tht Herald. "There was an uneasy, yet undefined feeling per vading the street to-day, and the markets were gene rally heavy and sluggish. The almost intolerable best had a great deal to do In repressing animation find the usually busy sidewalks on Broad street, III front of the Slock Kxchnnge, were deserted, 7 as though they formed a portion of a desert. In the itiiiblay sun It was not illtllcult to fancy them pos sessed of Siiharun qualities. Among stock operators there v ss a reactionary feeling after the enthusiasm that carried up the Vanderldlt shares so wonderfully luring the past live days, and tne 'bears' who had pluck enough to sell were stlil rather indlltVrent nbuut 'short' transactions. I'he action of the Grand Jury ami the arrest, of m.iii.v prominent bankers and brokers on the charge of usury added to the drooping tendency of the market, although ordlmi'lly such a guanniteee against stringent money would have led to a 'bull' movement. In this Instance, however, the money lenders, or In other words the capitalists, seem determined that thev shall Inve control of the market despite the laws. To punish the 'bulls' who brought about these legal proceedings there is a movement to increase the margins In loans on stock collaterals and so lean to great activity in money and a decline. There whs great preference shown yesterday for Governments tis collaterals, and money, with their pledge as security, was freely loaned at 6 per cent. In miscellaneous collaterals there was active demand, even up to three o'clock, at the full legal rate. Much of the uneasiness late In the day was due to a rumor that the Secretary of the Ticasury Intended selling ten millions of gold In ad dition to his semi-monthly sales. The effect of this report was quite direct upon the price of gold, which fell to 130,- Hiiont four o'clock. Foreign exchange was firm at the rates previously quoted, with a mode rctenmni'iit of business for "to-morrow's steamer.
