THE DAILY EVENING TELEQRAFIT PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1870. 3 ON THE ST. JOHN'S RITER. The nnt!ea f Florid The AdTaniai. of It. Climate for Invalids The at, John's Hirer. . -r From an Occasional Correspondent. Talatka, East Florida, Oct. 27, 1870. There are few placea more truly beautiful than the country which lies along the banks of the St. John's river. From the month of the river, and particularly from Jacksonville, a distance of seventy-five miles from here, its stream continually expands and narrows, seldom, however, being less than two miles wide, ever revealing new beanties along its Chores, of the stately pine, the oak with its curtains of grey moss, orange trees whose fruit is beginning to ripen, the banana, the palmetto, with here and there the peculiar and thoroughly tropical "Spanish bayonet." Nowhere on this continent is there the same air as here: bracing yet warm, where the mercury seldom falls below 35 degrees, yet even at 80 degrees the atmo Bphcre being not oppressive. The average temperature for the winter months is CO degrees. Already strangers and health-seekers have begun to come this way, showing wisdom in leaving our cities, more attractive, certainly, lis far as comforts are concerned, before tne chill November winds begin to blow. But in exchange for home and friends there is some gain beyond the hoped-for improvement in health, for the natural beauties will repay a winter's study. The lover of nature will find his time fully employed: the beautiful plumage of many of the forest biris; the mellow notes of the mocking-birds; the ex quisite fragrance of the yellow jasmine, which will soon bloom, and of the oleander, which here grows into a beautiful shade tree; and later the breath of tho orange blossoms, with which the air is laden; beetles of rare colors, and other insects too numer ous to mention, are sufficient to claim the attention of the invalid too delicate for a pro longed ramble. For those better able to endure fatigue, there is the river for boating, excellent fishing, and the exciting hunt for alligators, which abound in quantities, and game in the woods sufficient for the trouble of bringing gun and powder. All along the river are very good hotels and boarding houses; but for persons desiring to make a winter's stay on the St. John's Falatka offers many inducements. Its daily mails, a line of steamers from Charleston, another from Savannah, besides four river boats, make it easy of access to strangers. The town itself possesses some pretty houses, several stores, physicians, churches, and many pretty drives and walks. There are two very good hotels here; the St. John's, kept by P. & II. Teterman, is very nicely arranged and well kept, having a billiard-saloon and reading-room attached for the benefit of guests. The proprietors are unwearying in their attention to their boarders. The Put nam is being entirely renovated and newly furnished, and will be opened about the first of November under the management of Mr. McGinley, former proprietor of the Screven House in Savannah, and also interested in the Miles Ilouse and Charleston hotels. Both of these houses have had numerous applica tions already from Northerners, proving that the warm air of our own country is beginning to be appreciated by both invalid and pleasure-seeker. To the fruit-grower as well the valley of the St. John's is destined to become the re sort. All along the river oranges can be grown with little or no trouble, as well as the banana, the tree of which being very hardy is seldom cut off by frost. On certain por tions of the river the sugar-cane thrives splendidly, and is said to be a sure crop. Sweet potatoes thrive here as nowhere else; also the ground-nut. This land is well adapted for grape culture and raising melons. So it is not a necessity that visitors to Florida should spend an idle winter; eaoh one can have something to their taste to occupy their attention. I I T? tt anAndinn oil tViAlv tirviA YirViATt 4 Vi 41 weather is favorable out of doors, and having some light occupation for their minds a re quisite feature in leaving home we can guarantee that a winter's sojourn on the St. John's would be, as far as human judgment can decide, of permanent benefit to the in valid and consumptive. M. nawii guxvxxnAR'g. CUT Adair. Last evening, between G and 7 o'clock, a fire broke out in the fourth story of the build ing No. 10 North Fifth street, which is ooou pied by Messrs. Hessenbruch & Co., im- Sorters of German hardware, and by Messrs. orrow & Pendleton, manufacturers of boots and shoes. The store was closed when the smoke was observed issuing from the windows in the fourth story, and the doors had to be broken open before the flames could be reached. Messrs. Morrow & Pendleton occupy the third, fourth, and fifth stories, and Messrs. Hessenbruch & Co., the basement, first and second Btories. The fire was con fined to the room in which it originated, and did very little damage, but the water, which was poured into tne buiming in large quantities, is supposed to have damaged the stock of both firms to a large extent. In shoes and material, the stock of Morrow & Pendleton was estimated to be worth $25,000, on which there are insurances amounting to from $12,000 to $1",000; considerably more than the damage is supposed to be. The stock of the other firm is worth about $50,000, upon which there are insurances aggregating the sum of $40,000. What the loss is cannot be ascertained until the stock is carefully .examined. It will doubtless be heavy, as much of it, consisting of fine cut lery, was reached by the water. How the fire originated is not known. The building belongs to Hessenbruch & Co., and is in sured in the Uand-in-Uand for $5000. The Supreme Court has appointed as Guardian of '.the Poor Dr. Isaac Ray, and In srectcrs of the Eastern Penitentiary, Richard Vaux, Alexander Henry, Thomas H. Powers, Furman Sheppaed, John M. Maris.

The subject under cooajderaUoa was publio prayer, and the debate was partici- Jated in by Rev. Drs. Brainard, Johnson, lalin, Iter. Albert Barnes, Rev. B. L.Agnow, Ilev. J. Y. Mitchell and others. The subject was continued until next Monday, and llev. Herrick Johnson, D. D., appointed to open the debate. Late yesterday afternoon the banks of a new culvert, at Forty-third and Spruoe streets, West Philadelphia, caved 1b, burying three men and three horses. By great effort two of the men and horses were got out very little injured. Before the other man could be removed he had suffocated. He was named James Blee, and was a laborer resid ing ct 2(00 Pine street. An inquest will be held on the body to-day. The Republican members of Select Council met yesterday, and nominated Messrs.

I.AST NIGUT'S DESPATCHES. THE BOMBARDMENT OF PARIS A STUBBORN DE FENCE ANTICIPATED GENERAL BOURBAKI ON NATIONAL DEFENCE GARIBALDIS MISTAKE IN COMING TO FRANCE. Londow, Oct. 31. At a meeting of the Manchester Chamber of Commerce to-day, the chairman deplored a con tinuance of the war, which he hoped would now be brought to an end by the efforts of Thiors. His mission to Versailles would certainly result in peace. As compensation for the ills guttered in consequence of tbe war by England, there was an Influx of American visitors, who would otherwise have been travelling on tbe Contluent. There had also been a vast increase in business orders, while at tbe same time cotton was declintrg. He advo cated a petition against entry monopoly. The Prussians continue the siege of Pfa'sburg languidly, reckoning on the starving out of the garrison, whose supplies are beginning to fall. Dispatches from the east state that the persecu tion of Christians has been revived In Damascus, and so great is the irritation of the natives against them that a general massacre Is feared. Late advices from China state that the Christian missionaries whose lives were threatened at Fung Chew have been rescued and brought to a place of sufcty. Richard Connelly, second secretary of the Bri tish Legation at Pekin, ts dead. London, Oct. 31 (Special to the New Y'ork Tribune.) The correspondent of the Tribune writes from Tours, the 28th: ! have just returned from Lemans. There are no troops there, but Mobile aud National Guards are en route for Renness, Herat ry'a headquarters. Every town and village on the road is tilled with soldiers. Arms seem to be abun dant, including chassepots, Remingtons and Suy dcrs. The army of the Loire will pass through Tours. A large inlantry force arrived to-day. Troops from Salbrls are rapidly joining the ICtb corps and advancing toward Vendome. Their ob ject is Inexplicable. a correspondent, writes irora ueriin me zmu, as follows: An ohicer on Moltke's start' writes tne from Versailles the 22d, and says: "When the Paris a Hair will be ended no mortal man can tell. My personal calculation is a fortnight or three weeks, but 1 may mistake; at all events we shall do tbe Dusiness thoroughly, having, to be sure, hunger for our best any." The Dietz capitulation memoes ti lmantry regi ments, 13 batallions ot loot chasseurs, 18 tort aud dei ot batallions. 36 cavalry regiments, namely: 10 culrrasiers, 1 guides, 11 dragoons, 2 lancers, 3 hus sars, 3 chasseurs, and 3 chasseurs d'Afrique. Also, 6 depot squadrons, :iia neia Datteries, it natteries of mitrailleuses, 69 eagles belonging to the iufantry, of which were two formerly taken at Mars-la-Tour, and 36 cavalry eagles, Including tbe garrison. The t urrendered army originally comprised 221 batta lions of infantry, 102 equadrons of horse. The original numerical strength was 210,000 Infantry and 21,450 cavalry, 690 guns, 102 mitrailleuses, lie sides three marshals Bazaine, Canrobert, Lebuiuf and three commanders Frossard, Sacres and Ladmlrault there are 40 division generals and 100 brigadiers. 90,000 of the sound prisoners have been sent to north Germany, and 60,000.to south Ger many. The sick and wounded have been distri buted In the same proportion. Tbe correspondent of the Tribune with Garibaldi writes on the 27th lnst., from St. Jean de Sole, as follows: I arrived here last night. I had not seen Garibaldi since the evening of Mentaua, when he sent me into Rome to exchange some wounded pris oners. The alteration In him since then is striking. His tingers are bent with rheumatism and his body Is thin, but his face Is calm and bright as ever. We bad a two hours' talk. His position la pecu liar. He arrived at Tours simultaneously with Gambetta. The latter was not over pleased with the ovations to Garibaldi. They had an Interview there. Garibaldi wrote to Gambetta, "I see I have made a mistake; I am useless and shall return." But that would not have suited the people, so they gave him command of the department of Puva. lie is reported to have 10,000 men, but in reality he has not 5000, and they are Spanish, Italians and French a mongrel crew. Cauibriel, at Besancon, has 35,000 men. Garibaldi has with blm his son-in-law. Canzeo. chief of staff. Basso, his secre tary, and others are arriving, Most of his best fittW rs are not vet here. I aaid "General. If vou call thev will come." He replied, In tbe gravest voice, "That is what I cannot do. It would be too heavy a responsibility. Each must corns on his own account." Yesterday he hd decided to return to Ancangeo, but during the night there came news that 6000 Prussians were concen trated, so Garibaldi left word that be should stay. Ha extiects evtrv dav to be attacked. r.&rihairii'a coining was a mistake. The jealousy of the French Generals Is such that he can do noth ing, but here we are and there is no retreat. Touus. Oct. 31. Bourbakl, in view of the capitulation of Metz, has issued a oroclamation to the soldiers at Liliie. dated vesterdav. Hesavshe has been called upon by the Minister of War to command the army of the norm, i ne tax is great, uuu uui iur mo pa triotism and sentiments now animating all. would be above bis strength. His purpose was to organize immediately a corns d'armee, well provided witu materials of war, to go to the aid of besieged for fortresses. He would give his best attention, and hta lit'n. if need be. to the work which the govern ment and all citizens must now pursue, namely, tl, national defence. Concord aud coutideuce must now be had. Soldiers and citizens might count uDon his devotion, and be should count upon their patriotism. The endeavors of his life be longed to the common work, to punish the enemy ftnif avAni7H p ranee. The journals of this city to-day announce that should the Prussians succeed In cutting the railway couimunications with the north, French veaueU of war will carry the mails between France and Lug land. , Th Prefects and military commandants of oreat number of dcDartiueuU telegraph to the Miu inters here ei pressing the utmost indignation at the surrender of Metz, and the determination to con tinue tbe war to the last extremity. The agitation here is extreme, and the contradictory rumors which have been circulating all day contribute to increase publio anxiety. Some assert that peace has been signed without reference to the Tours govern ment: that Bazaiue bas been acting in accordance with Instf ustioua freu Napoleon, and that Geuerat Changarnier, refusing to surrender, took command Of the troops in Met a aud will cut his way out.

Formal noticeof the capitulation of Met has been Rent to Paris under a flag of trace. An Immediate bombardment Is determined upon. The King announces his consideration for the enormous number of prisoners who must Inevitably be subject to privations and su tiering under the best circum stances. Mercy to Paris would be cruelty to those who fought best for France. A large number of reinforcements reached the Investing lines to-day. Tocita, Oct. 31 (Special to the Mew York He rald.) Garibaldi summarily expelled from Dole the Jesuit fathers now In charge of the school of Notre Dame, De Mout and Holland. The proceed ing has excited the utmost Indignation.
