CUT AUntr. iust evening Samuel HaigM (colored), midlng at No. 103 Saline alley, was shot In Decatur ttrect, and severely woundod. The tall entered the breast near the heart, and the wound it Ib thought will prove fatal. The offender was nut arrested. John Burton (colored) was shot in the hand at Fifth and Powell streets last evening during un affray, but not severely wounded. Ha was a spectator. Both men were admitted into the lcLCfjlvania Hospital. Jacob Elliner, the keeper of a public house at No. b07 8. Front street, was arrested at 12 o'clock last night on a charge of assaulting Officer Hamilton, of the Second district, while in the discharge of his duly. Last evening, shortly after the closing of the polls at Sixth and Uhtharine streets, a man named Davlef who had Charge of tlxe Republi can window-book, was attacked And the book taken from him. He subsequently tore down a fign, and with it placed several of his assailants horn de combat. The book, however, was not recovered. At the polls alJEleventh and Sansom streets, an attack was made on the doors and windows immediately after they had been closed by the of licers. Several pistol shots were fired, but, as far as could be ascertained, no one was-1 jured. Several persons were arrested and held to keep the peace. A woman named Mary Lewis, aged thirty years, living in Emeline street, was shot last night at Seventh and St. Mary streets during a street fight in that neighborhood, wh'ch occurred at eight o'clock. The shot is said to have been fired by a policeman in the endeavor to quell the disturbance. Mary was forcing her wayintotho crowd when the ball struck her in the shoulder. The wound is not dangerous. She was conveyed to the Pennsylvania Hospital. A board ol olliccrs, consisting of General J. C. Woodruff, Colonel J. D. Kurtz, and Major W. K. Kinir, of the Corps of Engineers of the United States army, met yesterday noon, at the oflice of the United States Engineer, No. 'MS South Fifth street, for the purpose of in quiring into the feasibility of erecting the Speakinan drawbridge across the Delaware and hearing any objections that might be offered. The plan proposed is for a suspension bridge, having a draw with three floors or road ways, diverging from the main floor of the bridge, it is Intended that at least one of the draws shall be closed! all the time, vessels en tering at ono end before the draw is opened at the other. Mr. William E. Cramp was before the board and presented various objections to the bridge, the principal ones being the ob ptruction of the river b the piers, thus causing the ice to lodge, and the Inadequate width of the proposed draw, it being 70 feet, while the width of the new city ice boat, for example, is 18 feet, which would render it impossible for her to pass through with safety, having a vessel in tow, during the winter season. He stated that navigators object very strongly to drawbridges of any sort, and this seemed to be an aggravated form of drawbridge, and no navigator would at any rate attempt to pass through unless all three of the floors were raised at once. DomeNtlc Affairs Gold closed yesterday at 113. The National Congress on Penitentiary Reformatory Discipline will assemble in Cin cinnati to-day, and continue its deliberations for fully a week. The Associated Press held a meeting in New York yesterday, and passed resolutions declaring the right of all its members to use special newspaper despatches. The Hon. Gilbert Dean, formerly a member of Congress, and counsel for Mrs. Cunningham in the celebrated Burdell murder case, was lying in a dying condition last evening, at his resi dence in Poughkeepsie. N. Y. THE FIFTH WARP IMBROGLIO. The Correspondence lietween Mayor Fox, United Hlale Marshal Gregory and Gover nor Geary. The following correspondence passed yester day between Mayor Fox, Governor Geary, and United States Marshal Gregory, with reference to the conduct of the eleetionat the Third pre cinct of the Fifth ward: mayor fox to marshal gregory. Office of the Mayor of the City of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Oct. 11, 1870 E. M. Gregory, Esq., United States Marshal for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania Sir: I Lave been informed that you have appointed a considerable number of deputy marshals, said to be for the preservation of the peace during the election hours to-day, of which I have had no official notice other than what I have heard upon the streets. Of this I do not at present mean to say more than merely to notice the fact, but another feature has been presented to me which I could scarcely realize until 1 wit nested it myself, to wit: a large body of armed men in United States uniform, with muskets and bayonets fixed, parading our streets. Upon inquiry at your otlice I was told that they were marines brought here from the United Suites naval station at this port, upon your official order or request, to be kepthere during to-day's election. I look upon this fact as a serious outrage upon the authorities of Philadelphia, and be lieve their presence is calculated to provoke ex citement and possibly bloodshed. I protest against the introduction of armed men, except in due form of law, into the city of Philadelphia, wij,h any such object as that' stated, and ask that you will look at article 4, section 4 of the Constitution of the United States, which reads thus: "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a republican form of govern ment, and shall protect each of them against in vasion, and on application of the Legislature or of the Executive, when the Legislature cannot be convened, against domestic violence." ' I, sir, am the Chief Magistrate of the City of Philadelphia, charged with the preservation of the public peace, and no man has a right to in tervene until I, finding myself unable to preserve the peace of the city, apply to the Chief Execu tive of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,upon whom must then devolve the responsibility, if the power ot the State is inadequate, of ap pealing to the President of the United States for Federal intervention. I beg leave to remind you, sir, that this city is in a state of profound peace, and that its ordi nary police force has been found fuljy adequate to the preservation of the public peace. And I beg leave also to remind you that I have just re turned from visiting the place in which you sup posed disorder to exist, and only to find that peacefulnese, quietness and good order pre vailed there, as was apparent to myself. As Chief Magistrate of Philadelphia, I demand the instant disbandment of this armed force, Respectfully, Daniel M. Fox, Mayor of Philadelphia. GOVERNOR GEARY OFFICIALLY NOTIFIED. The following information ofhe state of affairs was at once communicated to Governor Geary: Office of Mayor City of Philadelphia, Oct. 11, 1S70. His Excellency Hon. John W. Geary, Governor of Pennsylvania Sir: With out any necessity existing for such an actiou. and without the slightest disturbance to aff ord a pretext for it. the city being perfectly quiet, United States Marshal Gregory has taken dos- session of a poll in this city with a force of United States marines under Lieutenant-Colonel Forney, and interfered with an election legally held and peacefully conducted. I am amply able to maintain tne peace or. me city without any such unlawful lntenerence, ana have en tered mv official protest against this outrasre. and have demanded the immediate disbandment of those troops. Of this unwarrantable infringe rxeot upon the rights of our State and particu larly of this city, 1 deem it my duty to appris VOU. UAN1EL M. rOX, Mayor of Philadelphia. ANSWER OF MARSHAL GREGORY. Early last evening Marshal Gregory replied to the Mayor as follows: United States Marshal's Office, Oct. 11, 1870 Hon. Daniel M. J? ox. Mayor of Pfeuadel tia Sir: I have to acknowledge the receipt vt your letter oi ibis uaie, eiauug iuuv you naa been informed that Hind appointed a considsra blc number of deputy marshals, for the purpose of preserving order at the polls. In reply thereto I would state that at the elec tion this day held, Ueprese'ntatives in Congress were to be chosen, anil that, under the provi sions of the sixth section of the act of Congress, of July 14, 1870,. I was authorized to make such appointments. The act of Congress is in these words: "Section 0 And be it farther enacted, That, In any city having upwards of twenty thousand inhabitants, it shall be lawful for the Marshal of the United States for the district wherein said city shall be, to appoint as many special deputies as may be necessary to preserve order at any election at which Representatives in Con gress are to t o chosen; and said deputies are hereby authorized to preserve order at such elections, and to arrest for anyoffonse or breach of the peace committed in their view." This morning I was Informed by a number of reliable citizens that the colored voters of the Third precinct of the Fifth ward were being ex cluded from the polls. This was a violation of the act of Congress of the 3d of March last, and by one c.f the provisions of the same act it was made my duty to take cognizance of the offense and see to the enforcement of the law. I was further informed that the deputies that I had appointed had been arrested by j'our policemen and removed from the vicinity of this precinct, hnd that your policemen were present at this particular precinct in very large numbers, and were actually engaged in the exclusion of the colored voters. For the purpose of protecting my deputies in the lawful discharge of their duties in prevent ing the colored voters from being excluded from the polls, I called to my aid a small body of marines. I did this for the preservation of the peace, and ns a matter of absolute necessity. The action which I have this day taken was in the performance of my duty under the law. Very respcctfullv, E. M. Gregory, United States Marshal. THE LOSS OF THE KUCY.; A Terrific llarrteane oil the Coast of Delaware A Might of Terror oa the Oceaa Escape from the Jaw of Death. Shortly after daybreak on Tuesday, October 4, the brig Ruby, Captain J. Trafton, sailed from Dela ware Breakwater for St. John. N. U. Khe was laden with coals. Everyihtug went well until about 8 o'clock the next morning, when the wind veered to the aorthcast and began to threaten. Before night fall it had increased to a gale, and at 3 o'clock A. M. It was found necessary to lay the ship to under close reeled sails. The gale soon became a hurricane, and shortly before 6 o'clock the main staysail split np, with a report like that of a cannon, and was blown away. There was nothing to do now but scud before the wind: accordingly tho helm was put round, and the vessel flew oir like a startled lawn. The sea was now running mountains high, each huge roller threatening to breait tlu Bhip. Still the brave little burk struggled on uutil tho morning of Saturday, when ou sounding it was lound that she was in shoal water, the lead imirklng fifteen fathoms only. To p' event her running aground, sail was put on and she was brought up to the wind. But sail after sail was blown to ribbons. First the jibs went, and Mien the foretopsatl. All this time the sea was breaking over her and sweeping the decks from tho bowsprit to the tatfrall. The crew were holding on to the rigging and to the bulwarks, Jwhile tho two sailors who were lashed to the wheel were knocked about at random. On sounding In the hold it was found that she was making water fast, and all nauds went to work at the pumps. The vessel was now unmanageable, and was helplessly tossed about In the trough of the sea. Still the water gained on the pumps, and all on board were prepared for the worst, when suddenly, at about noon, the smote of a steamer was seen on the extreme verge of the horizon. At once the en sign wan hoisted with the nnlon down, and Joy filled every heart when the steamer altored her course and bore d'iwn towards the sinking brig. On she csme,land when within hailing distance her life boat was lowered, and, Impelled by tae sinewy arms of four muscular sailors, the little boat brought up alongside the devoted craft. One by one the half-drowned and wearied mariners dropped into her and were safely borne on board tho steamer, which turned out to be the Virgo, Captain Bulkley, bound to New York. Scarcely had the shipwrecked mariners reached the deck of the steamer whea they saw the brig make a plunge forward and go down headforemost. The Virgo then steamed away for New ork, where she arrived safely ; and to Captain Bulkley and his crew the captain and crew of the Ruby oiler their heartfelt thanks for saving them from a watery grave. Till! WAR. LAST NIGHT'S DESPATCHES. THE BATTLES NEAR PARIS FRENCH ANXIETY FOR METZ BURNING OF VILLAGES PROGRESS OF THE GREAT BIEGE, London. Oct. 11. Among the documents found In the Tuilleries, is a deed dated immediately prior to the marriage of Napoleon with Eugenie, in which nearly 6,000,000 francs are settled by the Kmperor on Miss Howard and her son, the Count de Beaure gard. The Germans are closing in upon Thionvlue. They have been largely reinforced and are receiv ing siege guns irom airaoourg.

War material is daily shipped from Liverpool In large quantities, it is supposed for France. Uussia denies an tne reports mat, ue la mailing unusual military preparations, and the entire press declare that the government wants peace. The French say the Prussians have aiso burned several villages iu the plains of Bernce. The cleri cal party in France, especially In Brittany and La venuee nave laneu uuiumge i iue pupuiariiy ui Garibaldi and refuse to tight under him. It may be assumed that the Prussians ooened fire on the fortifications of Paris to-day, postponing the bombardment of the city itself uutil the resibt ance of the people makes it inevitable. A detachment of the army of the Crown Prlnca under General Von der Teun, defeated a portion of the army of the Loire, yesterday, near Orleiun, taking 1000 prisoners and three guns. The French lied in disorder. The Prussians having threat ened to shoot the town otticers of Ablies, were no tified that in case they persisted in carrying out their barbarous intention, an equal number ot per sons in the bands of the French would be shot. The Prussians were finally repulsed at Cherizy, but they rallied and taking' pottsessiou of the place set tire to it and the town is now In ruins. The National Guards, 70,000 strong, under Gus tavo Floureus, have demanded of the government that chasttepot rities be given them, and that a change be made in the practice of opposing, ou every battle-field , one Frenchman to three Prus sians. The answer of the government was unfa vorable, and Floureus has resigned his coiuutuid. TocKS.Oct. 11. The report that Gen. Uurieh will receive the Grand Crobs of the Legion of Honor is denied. M. Gambetta's baloon brought out of Paris ten kilogrammes ot letters, each weighing about four grains and nearly 39,000 in number. There was still 18,000 more awaiting despatch at the Paris poit otlice. The carrier pigeons have considerably more than they can do as postmen. The Prussians shoot all the Franc-tireurs they capture. This is the reason why the latter carry the black Mag. These atrocities are not committed bv large bodies of Prussians but by the uhlans. 'The journals of this city to-day publish the news Of the death of Prince Frederick Charlesof Prussia. A large number of prisoners of war, including some uhlans, arrived here to-day. Crowds of peo ple had collected to get a glimpse of them, and they appeared much exasperated. It required strong effort by the authorities to prevent retalia tion on the spot for the late Prussian atrocities. Rouen, Oct. 8. Special to the New York Times. The Provisional Government Is more anxious to ef fect the relief of Metz than even Paris, for the for mer fortress, it has reason to know, contains 800,000 cbassepots, immense quantities of ammunition and other stores. The people of Rouen are lamentably lacking in pluck, but may possibly show tight under Commandant De Faby. a redoubtable fire-eater. who has promised to defend the city. It is notice able that the Rouen journals are growling at the reception given to Garibaldi because of his former acts to take Nice from the French. A correspondent writing on the 6th InBt., states that the republicans are leaving in numbers from ail parts or spam, to oner niimary aid to rranco. in Portugal thinirs are eoinir badly. The Kinu was obliged to seek De La Bandera, to implore him to keep his portfolio until he was able to torin another ministry. The King is becoming more unpopular, and the republicans hope to precipitate a crisis to dethrone him. The United States are threatened with quite an Invasion of French artists and models Jerome, Messaonier, Rosa Bouheur, Gallaut and Saintvine are ail here, intending to visit and re uibin iu New York if the war continues. Fi.orf.nce, Oof. II tn renly to a deputation flora Rome, who w.tired upon King Vlc'or Kmanuel yesterday, the Ktri declared the country recon stltnted through th nanimlty of the votes on 'he rlebiscilum. He rtjoieed in the completion of the kingdom, the triumph of Justice, and exchange of loyal promiees. These, continued the King, are the forces which have made Italy master of her own destinies. Gathering, after a separation of centuries, In the once venerated capital of the world, she derives from the veptiges of past greatness the auspices of the future. You will surround with respect the seat of spiritual domain enthroned where pagm eagles perched. As king and catholic I guarantee liberty to the church, unity to Italy and independence to the Pontiff. I submit to you the result of the plebls citum. Transmit it to'the Italian people. Low thin, Oct. 11 Special to the New York Herald. 1 Our special correspondent at Rome tele- f;rsphs on the 10th that there Is a grnat and subtle nfluence working to Induce the Pope to leave Rome. He at present refuses on the plea that while he protects against the usurpation of Italy and yields to force, be still holds the dignity of Bishop of Rome, and cannot conscientiously aban don his diocese. It Is probable the question of cash will prove the most embarrassing to the Pope. Just before the entry of the troops of Italy.be drew 4,000,000 francs from the public treasury, giv ing bis personal receipt, notwithstanding he had already accepted 250,000 from the Italian govern ment for current expenses. The pay of the Swiss guard falls due this month, and last month's Is un paid, and the two together rest on the Papal house hold. Fear of embarrassment Is likely to compel him to compromise with Italy, i Chartrks, Oct. 10, midnight, via Tours, Oct. 11 At noon to-day the Prussians made another at tack on Chevizy, near Dreux, in strong force. The Inhabitants bad erected barricades, and defended the town with vigor, repulsing the enemy, affer a combat of six hours. The latter burned the ham lets of Cbartille, Messangere and Bressard, In the plains of Beance, and near Voxes they set tire to several places. GOLD DISCOVERIES. A Warning Against the Hpecnlators. The San Francisco Bulletin Bays: "Our neighbors in British Columbia were anxiously waiting, at the date of our latest exchanges, for the result of the assay of the quartz which has lately been discovered in the neighborhood of Vi ctoria. There is no doubt whatever that gold-bearing quartz exists in more than one locality in Vancouver Island, and in such quantities as to afford room for the expectation of rich mines being developed there, provided the quality of the rock is good. It is somewhat extraordinary that the locality of certain of these veins of quRTtz has been known to many of the old residents for some years past, but up to the present time no practical attempts have been made to turn them to good account; and it is doubtful whether, even should the assay promise well, much benefit will be derived by the colony from the work ing of these mines, until the country is more thickly populated, and labor becomes cheaper. Gold may be bought too dear; and as the present supposed discoveries are in the imme diate vicinity of the town of Victoria, the ground will all be speedily taken up by greedy speculators, who in all probability will not have sufficient capital to work quartz mines with any prospect of snccess. When the ground is all taken up there will be a grand formation of joint stock companies, the shares in which will again be taken up by still more needy speculators men who have cot the energy to climb up the hillside to stake off claims, and who will expect to realize a fortune by the sale of shares at a premium. "Capitalists who would be ready to embark their money in any legitimate mining opera tion which gave fair prospects of suocess, will find themselves hampered by speculators and stock jobbers. We might perhaps use a plainer term to designate the unscrupulous adventurers who, always on the lookout for spoil, do not hesitate to cripple any under taking by their eagerness to secure pickings for themselves, which might, but for their in terference, result in benefit to the com munity. Men without capital cannot suc cessfully engage in quartz mining, but they can very successfully keep better men out. We don't pretend to say that our friends ia Victoria might not succeed in carrying on ex tensive gold mining operations with profit; but from what we have seen of former opera tions in that forlorn city, as well as nearer home, we have but little hope of seeing any energetic movement made by the colonists which will lead them to prac tical success, until some organio change takes place which shall transmute the citizens of Victoria from dull and listless speculators waiting upon fortune into active citizens with practical ends in view, intent upon raising homesteads for their families and acquiring a comfortable independence for themselves. It is possible that the result of the assay may be such as to induce a rush to Victoria, but it is to be hoped that the local press will be most guarded in the ac counts which they publibh. Nothing could be more fatal to the interests of Victoria, and the colony of British Columbia, than another rush of miners, who would be certain to en counter disappointment, hardship, and loss. One or two quartz mining companies, with abundant means at their disposal, might work sue aessfully upon the hills adjacent to Victoria such, for instance, as Cedar Hill, where the late discoveries are reported, and at the Goldstream, where gold could be worked with profit, as has been proved by assay. But it will not pay capitalists in this city, or in aiiy other place, to buy out the needy discoverers, who would, upon the first rumor of purchasers being in the market, become exorbitant in their demands. "The people of British Columbia have pro bably learned by this time that mining, like any other business, can only be successfully carried on by due observance of legitimate and business-like methods and habits. The day is past for getting up fraudulent excite ments on this coast. Whatever may be the result of this present assay, there is little doubt that in a few years' time we shall see quarlz-crushing mills in operation in the im diate neighborhood of Victoria. In the meantime we shall be glad to chronicle any real and substantial prospect of quartz mining, or anything else likely to rawe the tone of our neighbors, and whilom good cus tomers, of Vancouver Island; but we must i mphatically warn the members of the press of the colony against giving the slightest en couragement to any sensational paragraphs intended or calculated to create an unwar rantable excitement. Nothing, for instance, can justify the expression of the opinion that, should the assay turn out well, the dis covery will be one of the most important ever made on this coast, and we fear this is the strain into which the Victoria papers are di if ting." A gentleman, who had once been one of the wealthiest citizens of Albany, appeared at the station bouse of that city the other night, and requested the sergeant to send him to the Almshouse. The fcan Francisco police made 15.230 ar rests during the fiscal year cuding June 30, 1870, and recovered tllO.'JoJ worth of stoleu pro perty. The force consists of oue chief, four captains, five detectives, and 100 patrolmen. The Mayor and Aldermen of Toronto were so dazzled with the elevation of the Governor General to the peerage that they failed to see that any special honors were due to Col.
