A London dispatch of Juno 20th, says : Tho official account of Princo Napoleon's death says ''The Trincc, with Lieutenant Carey, of the Ninety-eighth Regiment, six men and ono Zulu, left tho camp at Uletzi Mountaiu, seven miles beyond tho Black riv er, on tho 1st instant, for a reconnoisance. The party halted and unsaddled when ten miles from camp.- Just as tho Princo gave tho order to remount a volley was fired from an ambush in long grass. Lieutenant Carey and four of the troopers returned to the camp and reported that tbo Prince and two troopers wero missing. From their statements there could bo no doubt that tho Prince was kill ed." A dispatch to tho Daily News says that tho Princo Imperial had been bent for ward by tho Quartermaster General to select a sito for the next camp. When tho volley was fired not a single Zulu was to bo seen. Tho party dispersed and sought safety under cover. Tho Prince was novcr seen alive again. His horse joined Lieutenant Carey's party on tho road back to the camp. When tho body of tho Prince was found it lay on the back. There wero eighteen ass egai stabs in it, two of them piercing tho bo ly from tho chest to the back, two in tho side, and one destroying tho right. A locket with hair medallions and a reliquary, was found around tho neck. Tbo faco wore a placid expression. Ho had evidently inef fectually tried to mount, and the leather of nap tearing ho ran along tho path to where ho was found. Two troopers lay near the body, both having been assegaied. The Princo was very adventurous. A dispatch to tho Timet says that tho body was discovered among long grass, three hundred yards from a kraal. There was no bullet wound, but seventeen assegai wounds were in tho front of tbo body. Tbo clothes had been taken, but round tho neck was a chain with a locket. A stretcher of lances was formed and the body borne by General Marshall and Officers Drury, Lowe and Stewart, of tho Seventeenth Lau ccrs, to meet the ambulance, by which it was brought hither with an escort. There was a funeral parade in tho afternoon. Deep sor row prevails throughout the column. The Princo did not mount after the attack. His horso being restive he ran on foot. Tbe oorpso will leavo with an escort for transpor tation homeward.

A correspondent, in a recent issue ef the Williamsport Banner, inquired "Whether or not a Supervisor is compelled to afford tax-payers an opportunity to work out their road taxes ?" Tho question was referred by the editor to Clinton Lloyd, Esq., who re plied that tho inquiry could be "best answer ed in tho languago of the law itself. The act of 1834 provides as follows : The Super visors aud Overseers of the Poor of every township shall cause fair duplicates to be mado of tho rates or assessments by them respectively ; and shall issue their warrant, with such duplicates, to the collector of such rates and levies, therein authorizing and re quiring him to demand and receive from every person iu such duplicate named, tho sum wherewith such person stands charg ed. "Provided before the issuing tho duplicate and warrant for tho collection of road taxes, it shall bo tho duty of the Supervisors of every township to give notice to all persons rated for such taxes, by advertisement or oth erwise, to attend at such times and places as such Supervisors may direct, so as to give such persons full opportunity to wort out their rcspectivo taxes. "I cite the following decisions of the Su preme Court of Pennsylvania on the above statuto : Tho opportunity to work outthe taxes is a condition precedent to the issuing of a warrant for their collection. Milton vs. Gorman, 38 Pa. St. Rep. 809 ; Supervisors can make no contracts, tbe effect of which must bo to deprive tax-payers of tho privi lege to work out their taxes, Childs vs. Brown township, 30 Pa. St. Rep. 332. This would not apply of course to the case of a tax levied to pay a township debt under the provisions of tiio laws relative to that sub ject." A Illind Man's Duel. A peculiar duel occurred in the days when Mississippi liver steamers were the scenes of constant carousals and quarrels. Capt- West, one of the fiercest habitues of the steamer, one day accused a gentleman on the deck of impertinently staring at him, 'I am not looking at you,' calmly replied tho stranger, his eyes meanwhile fixed in a stony glare up on the duelist's face. 'But you are sir I' 'I am not." Tbo captain turned away, but a short time afterward he felt thoso stony eyes again upon him, and following all his move ments. Stepping up to the stranger he in quired with suppressed passion : 'Can you fight as well as look ?' 'Porhapa so. I never tried. Place me, howovcr, in position and I will do my best.' Tho singular conduot of tbe stranger had by this time attracted universal attention. A short time the yeane! rounded to a landing for wood, and tho parties to the impromptu duel went ashore. Tbe stranger was led off by a negro servant, who seeming' ly picked his way. But the time allotted for preliminaries was brief, and the men were speedily put iu position. The word was given and two ringing reports flashed out in the air. Capt. West fell pierced to the heart. The stranger stood erect, calm and diguificd. His second rushed up to him : Are you hurt, Bir ?' No ; how is it with my antagonist?' 'Cant you see? You have kill ed him.' 'No ; I am unable to see.' 'You can't see?' 'No; I am blindl' And so he proved to be. The tragedy was a nine-day's wonder, and all sorts of rumors were rife as to the identity of the fatal stranger. But who he was and whither ho went was a mystery never solved. Courier Journal. More of tho London bridges have been freed from toll.

Juniata Newt. (Communicated.) KIIIOD3' MEKTIM1 AT M'fiLVIiiLE. Not out of curiosity, nor for tho purpose of criticism,, for at one period of my life fur. ten years I had 'often attended, but feeling need of a revival of strength of both body and mind on last Friday morning, being a clear, cool day, in company with selected friends we" repaired the village of Mlllvllle, when and where, from our knowledge of their custom, we knew the society of Mends wero holding their Half-1 early .Meeting, Promptly nt ten o'clock A. M , after a dp llghlful ten iiillss drive along Ihewalersof the Little KNIilngcreek, we entered the gate of their beautiful grounds planted with shade trees as lliey are and Improved with a urge brick meeting house (they don t call It church) plain and unpalnted ; for tbo ac commodation of their worshippers and friendi and with shedding for the comfort of horses, surrounded and intersected with posts and raillne for tethering horses ; and ol course entered the house at once in order to procure a sent. It was more than sixteen years since I sat "pell-bound, in the samo place, lor one hour held by the words of Dr. Georgo Truman, of Philadelphia, whtsotlls course, for beauty of thought, stylo of ex pression, and power of scriptural and re ligious argument was to my mind never sur passed. Since that mournful period, (for his subject was ou, and during, tho late war) great changes havo taken place. My boyish years have passed away and with them have passed most of the aged and the reading friends of that Meeting, and many of the young, whose earnest and pure friend ship I shall never forget ; and I was pleased to notice that the younger ones are dignify ing and filling the places left vacant by their fathers, mothers and friends. And while counting and recounting the departed ones whose remains slumber In that quiet and modest grave-yard, I could hardly realize the happy beiug that I was twenty yeais ago In their midst, at tiuios thoughtless and giddy, Indiscreet and faulty, full of energy and animiteu with thoughts of various pursuits; enjoying their unnumbered kind nesses exercised not towards me only but to all around me. But the various events of twenty years have not effaced tbe remem brance, of tbe kind hearts and willing hands that administered to my comforts and pleas ure not only In health, but who, in my sick- not", almost unto dealu, gave their private apartments, their means, their skill, and their time, day and night, to aid in, and insure my ncovery. These clrouuistniio-a may seem trilling to the reader, but on this occasion they were br mghlback so distinct ly to my mind that I relate them as belnt; characteristic of the Friendi and with the re spect and admiration that a child regards dutiful partnts; and had it not Into for some bitter recollections arising from wrongs ou my part, tbe whole train of thought that then occupietTmy mind would lhav! bee." 8ntle 8Dl1 refreshing. While 1 . , . .1... ....n.-.. UUUI , UUI ll Willi;,! III1IU 11IC HlitlieillH V OS gathering and being seated, I was also forci bly reminded of the ancient expression of their persecutors "See how these Quakers love each other" "The Society will never be put down while they continue to be oou noc ted by such a tie." "If we let these quakers alone they ill take the trade of the nation out of our hands" aud when I speak of persecutors I mean tho-.e that reigued in the days of Ge irge Fox, their lauious found er who lived aud preached in the seventeenth century, u contemporary of Chief Justice sir .Matthew Hale, Oliver Cromwell, Win Penn, It.iUrt Btrclay, Thomas Elwood, Georgo Whitehead, Thomas Green, and many other eminent nun all of wh m have testified in their writings of his greatness "Tbe blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church" seems to be especially true of these people, for Fox and bis followers both in this aud foreign countries met with much severe, disgraceful and cruel persecution during his ministry of nearly fitly years. He was knocked down while publicly speak ing ; set upou by do&s aud dragged to tbe ground ; arrested aud trequenlly imprisoned for years in damp colli leaky cells, his bed- clothing, and clothes often becoming wet from storm and rain, leaking through the roof, and never allowed fire to dry them. At one time be fas rcutenced to forfeit all bis property and be imprisoned for lifo ; yet after fourteen months cruel confinement he was offered a pardon, but being sensible that he had done no wrong, and thinking that tbe acceptance of a pardon would look like giving countenance to tbe unjiM proceeding against him refused to accept it ; and being brought by Aa4u corpiu before Sir Matthew Hale, he 'wilh other judges, ou account of good reports of Fox, proclaimed bis liberty. His followers were frequently unjustly con demned, executed and banished. He traveled much to speak to the people in England, Ireland and America, preaching to all classes Including both Negroes and In dians, It was Justice (or rather Injustice) Gervas Ueunet who Pilate-like, when he was persuaded and knew that Fox had done no wrong, sent him to prison and fi.at gave the friends the derisive name of ''Quakers" because George Fox bid him "tremble at the words of the Lord." His health became so impaired from tbe hardships suffured by rea son of bis long and close confinement in bad place and tbe cruel treatment he received from the bands of his persecutors, that with a cold and benumbed body, swollen limbs, weakened frame, and pale countenance, he died In London, the country of his birth, in 1600 in the C7th year of bis age. William Penn, one of lii many biographers sajs of bim "He was civil beyond all forms of breed lug In his behaviour ;" very temperate ; eat ing little and sleeping less ; be was of an innocent life no busybody ; no self-seeker, neither touehy nor critioal. So meek, con tented, modest, easy, steady ; it was a pleas are to be iu his company, A most merciful man, asready to forgive, as unapt to take offeuoe. His ministry was deep searching and powerlul. He excelled in prayer, tbe inwardness and weight of his spirit ; the reverence and solemnity of bis address and behaviour j the fewness, firmness and full' neas of his words, struck strangers with ad miration, as they reached others with con solation. The most awful living, reverent frame I ever felt or beheld, I must say was his In prayer. Thomas El wood, says of bim among othtr things, "He was valiant for the truth ; behold In asserting it; patient in suffering for it ; unwearied in laboring in it; steady in his testimony to it ; deep iu divine knowledge and immovable as a rock ; grace' ful in countenance, sound in judgment ready iu giving, discreet in keeping counsel manly In nersonage ; grave iu gesture ; courteous Iu conversation ; weighty in com municatiou ; Instructive in discourse ; and free from affectation in speech or carriage," And these bis followers endeavor to put in practice bis teachings, living iu love of vir tue and that holy, plain way In which be lived. Thus I mused for one half hour, when tbe large house was filled to overflow lug, the Isles and double-seats all being crowded and solemn silence reigned. Just then that "still small voice" by which they are governed, moved a lady Friend to a brief address of tceicome. A few minutes after another lady spoke on the subject of love. giving many beautiful examples, scriptural And otherwise, showing Its necessity, power nud value to the children and their Heaven, ly Father. Third. aroso a middle aged man taking for his subject Oppression, aud Iu his remarks wetnust content ourselves somewhat dlsnppolnledjConslderlng as we did tbe many forms of oppression nnd he brltfly mention lug but one. But "To caso tho soul of ono oppressUo weight." This quits an Elliptic; lli.it embroils a state." Upon his conclusion another lady arose with uncovered head nnd cheerful counten ance taking for her text, "The Lord lovelh a elieerlnl spiilt" ami for twenty minutes with that subject she dealt niosl charmingly and well. At the clnso of her discourse another male friend iimho Ills Urge broad rl cod while fur bat still mi Ms bend, as It had been, and Is their custom, during tho entire silting.hasing bis remarks ou the sub ject of Patience and In a clear calm voice he urged that we should "run with patience the raco that is set beforo us." ' Havo patience with me and 1 will pay thee all." "The husband man walteth for the precious fruit of the earth and hath long patience for It." "Comfort tho leiblo intnded, support the weak, be patient toward all men." "He learnt with patience and with meekness taught." The next speaker was an aged gentleman whoso form was considerably bowed with age, whoso earnest nnd nulmated discourse related mainly to Creed, and reasoned thus : that the people are growing better and that the tendency of tho ago is that different denominations and sects of religious wor shippers nre learning to look more singly to God, than to forms of worship, and pleading with all to "believe aud be saved." "All things are possible to him that bcllcvctb." "Slave U no sect, ho takes no prlvato road," "llut loo.s tlirouKh nature up to nature's tiol.' "Sin not at all" "Pray without ceasing" and thus, hesaid.make every day a sabbath. The seventh aud last speaker was n young man with a countenance indicating more thau ordinary intelligence, his tboughta dwelling on Contrition "A contrite heart O God thou wilt neut despise." "Niueveh repented at the preaching of Jonas" aud very strongly delineated the parable of tbe prodigal Son "X stay here starving'1 "I will arise aud go to my Father" And now ouo hour and a half having been occupied by the speakers in which timo was preached seven sermons on seven subjects,as follows, viz: Welcome, Love,Cheerfulnes, Oppression, Patience, Creed, and Contrition, wueu the meeting was dismissed by two elders shaking hands, after which wo re ceived, as do all visitors and friends from a distance, many kind invitations to dine with them, all of which our business engagements dispelled us to decline, in order to return, spending only the bright summer morning.

Tho extremities of the avenue in another dead-lock The day of adjournment in definitely postponed Statesmen going to Europe A possible solution of the diffi culty Blistering weather All that is left of Washington Only the judicial bill. Few thought, one week ago, that Congress would, to-day, bo further from adjournment than it seemed to be then,but there has been another veto and political weather prophets, even the wisest, are all at sea, and in a fog at that as to the time of adjournment. It may be that a want of a quorum will be the final solution ofthe vexed deadlock between the respective ends of the avenue. Some senators and members bavo tied ou political questions and hied across the Atlantic Ocean, others have seceded to their respec tive states, where they have engagements to deliver addresses at college and seminary commencements, and, it is not improbable that statesmen, even without a formal ad journment, will soon be as rare at tbe Capi tol as statesmanship has ever been. The delightful, oool, days of the past week were sufficient to reconcile the most indolent pol iticians to the parallel of Washington, but fir the last two days the sun has glared with blistering heat, and the acres of black ab sorbing surface which compose tho artificial boulevards of tho Capital City make the night, by radiation, as hot as a tropical noon day. 'All who can get away from Washing ton have gone, or will be gone by the 1st of July, and none will be left except govern ment clerks, shop-keepers, boarding-house keepers, ouwiers, soda-fountain benefactors, and, perhaps tbe respective extremities of the avenue. A conference of leading Republicans was held during the session of the House yester day for the purpose of discussing, with a view to harmonizing tbe action of the min ority, in case a resolution providing for an adjournment sine die should be introduced before tbe judicial appropriation bill is finally disposed of. The conference was very brief, and it was decided that tbe Republi can members should oppose any such reso lution by voting against It, and that tbey should pursue the same course if an attempt to exteud the appropriations for judicial ex penses should be made, but in neither case resort to parliamentary tactics to defeat the plans of tho majority, A canvass of tbe House of Representa tives yesterday, immediately after tbe read ing of the President's message vetoing the bill making appropriations for the judicial expenses of tbe Government, developed that there wero three distinct propositions enter talned by the majority as the most practica bio to be punued. Tbe one having appar enlly the largest number of supporters con templated a resolution fixing a time for ad journment tine die, and that another bill identical In its provisions with the vetoed measure, be passed and sent to tbe President and if he should again return it without bis approval adjourn and permit tbe bill to fail. A second proposition was to pass a joint res olution extending until next January appro priatlon's on the basis ofthe present actprO' viding for ju llcial expenses, with a proviso that no portion ol tbe money thus appro priated shall be used for the payment of deputy marshals or supervisors of elections, and In tbe event ofthe non-approval of the President to adjourn sine die, and if he Bhould issue a proclamation reconvening Congress, to repeat this actiou. The third proposition favors an adjournment without a further attempt to meet tbe views of the Executive, This line of action was not fa- vorab'y entertained but by a few, TheDem ocratic party of the House, however, an pear to stand as a unit against supporting any bill which will permit tbe continuance of deputy marshals and supervisors rf eleo tions. A Cabinet Officer, In discussing the situation with a member of the house yes terday, said if the majority should again pais a bill similar to the ono just vetoed the President would return it without his algna ture, and If Congress should adjourn he would call them together the next day, But if they should a third time send bim the bill and adjourn he would not reconvene them, and thus throw tbe responsibility of closing tbe courts on the Democratic party, O.

In tlio faco of everything, Wantimakcr & Hrovn increased their great Clothing business last year at Oak I Iall nearly a quarter of a million dollars, and for 1S79 the new plans will make the house more popular and increase the business much more. Eighteen years in the people's service at the old corner of Sixth and Market has taught us how to do the business well. Ma Whatever may be said, no house in the United States sells any-' thing like so much Clothing at Retail as Oak Hall, and no house In Philadelphia sells more than a quarter as many goods as Mr. Wanamaker sells hi Clothing alone. Doing this large business shows the people's regard for our goods, and enables us o buy cheaply and sell at small profits. New patterns have been made this year and new styles" intro duced through Mr. Robert C. Ogdcn (formerly partner of the famous firm of Devlin & Co., New York), who is now associated with Oak Hall, and will give his whole energies nnd valuable experience to improving tho manufacture of our Hoys' and Men's Clothing. Wo do not buy Clothing like the dealers, but make k expressly for our own sales. The Spring stock is splendid, nnd no other make of goods, so far, have as much merit, or are sold as cheaply. Impressions have been cn-oneously given to the effect that Mr. John Wanamakcr, who founded Oak Hall, is not interested in the old store, and that it docs not have his attention ; on the contrary, his ownership of it remains unchanged, nnd lie lias lost none of his love for it. Pvcry day finds him supervising nil its departments. Mr. William 11. Wanamakcr spends his entire time on the Oak Hall business. A VISIT THIS SPRING PARTICULARLY INVITED.
