Gable, a prominent and highly respected resident of this city, was found dead in an outheuso attached te his resi dent, Ne. 210 North Queen street, about 1 o'clock this afternoon. " He appeared te be in his usual geed health this morning, ate a hearty breakfast, and nothing mere was seen of him until bis dead body was found as above stated. Corener Mishler being notified empan elled the following named gentlemen as a jury of inquest : Jeseph Samson. Edw. M. Schaeffer, J. II. Abraham, S. W. Eshle man, Abraham Hirsh and A. J. Flick. It was in evidence before the jury that Mr. Gable, after eating his breakfast, re mained about the house for an hour or mere, visited the water closet and, as was supposed, went down town. Some as tonishment was felt that he did net re turn te his dinner as promptly as usual, and about 1 o'clock one of his sons, en visiting the water closet, feuud him there dead. Dr. Compten,the coroner's physician, en viewing the body, expressed the opinion that Mr. Gable had died of apoplexy seen after entering the water closet. The jury rendered a verdict of death from apo plexy. Mr. Gable was a self made man and possessed a mere than ordinary share of intellect. lie was born in the northeastern part of Lancaster county, in the vicinity of Eplirata and when but a boy came te this city with a small bundle en his back and without friends, te carve out his own for tune. He was apprenticed te the late Peter G. Ebcrman as cigarmaker, and bearded with Mr. Christiau Kieflcr. After becoming of age, aud being backed by some friends who admired his business qualities, he opened a small cigar aud to bacco store en the southeast corner of East King and Centre square He prospered in business, aud seme years later lie bought the property en the .southwest corner of North Queen aud Chestnut streets, which was then a small tavern stair I. Tearing down the old building he erected en the site of it the fine building formerly kuewn as 'the "Lancaster Museum," new knewnjas the "Rohrer Heuse," which was at the time the tallest aud one of the most costly structures in the city. Here he carried en the cigar aud tobacco trade for many years. Before the year 1S40 several friends, who had sceu his aptness for business, supplied him with $3,000 te go west and purchase Ohie and Kentucky tobacco, te bring te this city te be manufactured. He was quite successful in this trade, but as early as 1834, he began te encourage the growing of leaf tobacco in this county and was perhaps the very first operator te deal in it te any great extent, aud he has long been regarded as the father of a local en terprise that has of late years grown te such wonderful proportions as te over shadow almost every ether interest in the county. Seme years later, in the interest of several Lancaster capitalists, he went west and purchased large tracts of unimproved lauds. The company for whom he was operating did net succeed as well as was expected, whereupon Mr. Gable bought out their several interests, and obtained titles te the lands. The imnrevement and sale of these lauds has occupied the greater part of his time aud attention for the past nine or ten ycats, and it is said he owns twenty-three of the finest farms in Iowa. Mr. Gable was twice married : first te a Miss PUikcrten, sister of Sample Pinker Pinker ten and the late Henry Pinkerteu, sad dicr. By this wife he had a large family e! children, of whom two sons and tlnee daughters survive. After the death of his first wife he married Elizabeth R. Bessier, a teacher of the Mount Jey school. She and her two children survive him. Mr. Gable became converted te Chi is -tianity when quite a young man, under the pi caching of the Rev. Jehn Elliett, of the Methodist Protestant church, then located en East Chestnut street, near Duke. The building was afterwards used by.Tehn Best as a boiler works, but was long since tern down. When Jehn Winehicuiicr. the founder of the sect known as the Church of Ged, began pleaching his peculiar doctrines, Mr. Gable was 0110 of the first in this city te embrace them and he has, ever since, been a faithful and zealous worker in the cause. Frem the time the Union Bethel was organized until the time of his death, Mr. Gable was one of its most ac t ive ciders and liberal supporters. Mr. Gable wSfc prominent in all charita ble, benevolent and useful enterprises, his purse and his voice being at the service of whatever appeared te him te be te the in terest or the city or of his fellow citizens. Fer nearly haif a century he was a mem ber of the Friendship fire company, and for mere than forty years and up te the time of his death was its houercd presi dent. At the time of his death Mr. Gable was probably ever 73 years of .age and was honeicd and respected by all who knew him, and his death will be felt as a severe less in a community for whom he has done se much. TWO AWFUL LIAKS. A Yerk County Ncsre anil Begus Constable With regard te a story of a stolen stal lion, told in this city en August 2d, by Sylvester Wilsen, colored, of Gatchelville, Yerk county, and a white man calling himself a constable, the lie direct is given by Jehn Fleming, who called at this office te-day te deny it. It will be remembered that they told that the stallion was owned by and had been stolen from Wilsen, and that Fleming was suspected of the robbery, and had been seen driving off with the horse. Mr. Fleming, who is a young man of high character aud respectability, from Chanceferd township, amply vouched for by reliable gentlemen in this city, says that Wilsen tended the stallion for W. N. McAllister until the end of the season, and was then delivered up te Mr. McAllister, who had him in harness en the day en which Wilsen aud the bogus Constable, Jehn Grafton, said he was stolen. Their whele story was a lie without any ether foundation than the foregoing facts. Newspapers which have been led into injustice 1 3 ward Mr. Fleming should re pair the error. Meantime should Wilsen aud Grafton ever get ever this way again they are likely te Lc caged and exhibited as champion liars. OUB COURTS. Tlie Lawyers' Vacation About Over.

Anether Treasury Scan'dal, Involving a Lan caster Man. y Washington Dispatch te the Times. There is apparently no end te the scan dals in the treasury depaitment.

He became enamored of the treasury girl seme time age and the two have carried en an amour which has attracted the attention of a geed mauv people. It finally get te the kuewelcdge efliis wife, who raised such a rumpus that the whele thing comes te light. There it an investigation new go ing en in the treasury that will probably land Skeen en the outside. Skeen is a well-known young man from about Strasburg, mart ied te a lady of es timable family from that, town, and him self a brother of IJ. F. Skeen, formerly janitor at the ceui t house. He obtained his position iu the treasury department, which he has bad for several years, through Dr. S. F.

SEASHORE HOTEL BVKNED. Guvsts of the Parry Ueuie, Beach Haven" Escaping lu their Night Clethe. Beach Haven. N. J., Aug 11. About 3 o'clock this morning the Parry house at this place was destroyed by lire. Ne one was injured, but many narrow escapes are reported. Very little baggage and personal effects were saved - There was no fire extinguishing appara tus, and fanned by a stiff ocean breezothe flames spread with wonderful rapidity. There were two hundred and fifty guests in the house who barely escaped with their lives ; but seme managed te snatch parts of the bed clothing which served te some extent for covering. The fire broke out about a quarter te three in a small building adjoining, occu pied as a bakery. The scene was terrible in the extreme. The half-clothed people from the fated hotel were running in all directions. Finally Mr. Eagle, proprietor of the Engle Side hotel, opposite, wift corps of men succeeded in getting a line of hose fiem Engle Bide te the burning building and after a great deal of hard work the flames were gotten under con trol and the fire was prevented from spreading. The Parry Heuse was destroyed. The beach was crowded with guests who considered their escape something miraculous. The pro prietor's less is $30,000, but the less of the boarders is uuknewn at present. When the unfortunate boarders arrived at Camden this morning they presented a novel appearance. Seme, both men and wo men, were attired in variously fitting bath ing suits, ethers in mere appropriate but almost equally bad-fitting garments. All appeared te appreciate their narrow es cape tee much te mind their otherwise la diciens appearance. SOLDIER, UEST. Funeral or the Lata Gen. Patterson Dutta gulsbed Personages Present.

A Letter JtTrem a Mae Indicted for Murder. Te the Editor of the Sun Sir: I am a prisoner in the Tombs, where I have been confined for ever six months, charged with having shot down an aged and re spectable lady, for no ether reason than that she mildly asserted the dignity and respectability of her home, and because she wouldn't allow me te live rent free in her house. It must seem strange and very improb able that a sane and a sober man should de such a thing ; yet that is what the Sun and all ether papers, have accused me of having done. 1 have never had a chance te tell my side of the story, and the papers, with few exceptions, have never neglected an opportunity te abuse me, and te black en my character. I would be much ob liged, therefore, if you have this letter published in the Sun. It might take up tee much space te give all the details of the sheeting, and I will therefore merely state that I don't ewe Mr?. Crave, whom I shot, a single cent for rent, had never been ordered te leave her house, had never circulated scandalous stories about her, and bad never threatened her. I don't deny having shot her, but I de deny having bought the pistol with the in- teatkm of sheeting her with it. It's dea new and can't be helped ; and asl have bees indicted and will lie tried for aarder in the first degree, I expect te be hanged for it The Sun stated that my defence would be insanity ; and I would like te knew hew yen found out what my defenceeuki be. The insanity dodge, I am afraid, wouldn't work in my case, as I am net a rich man ; besides, I don't want te make use of a .plea se often entered in. the de fence of cowardly assassins. I never never for a single moment re gretted having shot that old she-devil, Mrs. Crave ; aud if I have never committed a greater sin in all my life than I did when I killed her, then I will die a saint. I am aware that hanging in New Yerk is as geed as played eat yet new and then some peer devil has get te swing, but I am net afraid of it. Maay an innocent man has been convicted and punished for a crime he never committed ; and as the circumstantial evidence against me tending te show that I committed a pre meditated murder may be strong enough te send me te the gallows, I have thought it best net te make any defence at all. I have given up my lawyer, and when I go te court te be tnsd, I will merely give my accounts of the sheeting, and then let the jury de with me what they please. I never considered it my business te sheet shc-devils, bat I don't feel sorry for having shot this one even if I am te. hang for it. She suffered almost five months, and died a slew and horrible death. I will only sutTer for about thirty minutes. Tours respectfully. Wm. Sindrkm. Tombs, Au. 9. MAJtKJSTS. ' flew erk Market.
