THE Dl AG ft OTHEAN Literary Society! -Friday evenings very large and fashionable audience assembled in Pulton Hall to witness the anniversary exercises of the Diagnothean Literary So ciety, attached to Franklin and Marshall College. Tho stage was handsomely fitted up and tho arrangements for accommo dating the largo audience most complete.— The exercises were opened by a prayer from Dr. Gerhart. 1 The first performance, was a prologue, written by Itev. Dr. Harbaugh, of Mercers burg, and delivered by G. P. Rosenmiller, of this city. There were some good hits in tho piece, tho rhyming was fair and the au dience seemed to be pleased with this open ing of tho evening’s entertainment. The speaker delivered the poem properly. Oration— “ Ambition its own Victim.’[ A. H. Dottorer, Now Hunover, Penna, The speaker lubored to show that ambi tion was suro to bring a curse upon him who cherished it. Ho instanced Napoleon and others. No distinction was made bo* tween selfish ambition and that higher emulation which is the mainspring of all horoio oflort. Taking the one-sided view adopted by the speaker, tk'o effort was a creditable one. Ills delivery was too mo notonous to bo vory effective! but time and care may make him un acceptable public sponkor. Oration— “ Our (ireut Kpoch” pie, Woodcock-Jioro., Pa. This was ono of those rash attempts which so oflon' load very young men to mako failures in public speaking. The theme was a very huge ono, evidently much 100 vast for the grasp of the speaker. There was no exhibition of ability to com prehend aright the great lessons of the war. A few glittering gonoralitlos about emanci pation, emigration, ifcc., gleunod from news papers ofa certain class audstrung together in a weak way, made up the speech. It was not well delivered. Tho lack of ora torical ability was especially uppnrunt in the utlompt to quote that mugnlikont apos trophe to our Whip of State with which tho speaker concluded. Kulot/t/— 1 ' Milton"—Win. 1). Seltzer, Womolsdorf, Pa. Tills was decidedly tho best spoech of the evening. Thu sketch of Milton’s curoor, both as political controversialist and as poet, was complete and graphic. It was admir ably written, nml displayed decided ability. The criticism upon tho works of the great author were correct, exhaustive and worthy of the subject. The delivery was appropri ate and effective. Oration —“ Virtue Crowns her followers" —.l. K. \Vhml,-(JurllNvillu, Pa. This was u fairly written and spoken piece, not very remarkable, but übovo tho ordinary range of such things. Annitwraari/ AtUlroAN—" Division of Pow er," Id. O. Pornuy, Hanover, Pa. This was an effort to show tho advantages of a division of powor In a government. Thu spoil leer took tho ground that tho natural division was Into Legislative, Kxucutlve and .Judicial brunches, lie handled diU subject .quite well, vory much better limn college boys are In the habit of dealing with political questions, Ills delivery was appropriate and effective.

Ah soon an tlio alarm was given, Mr. Seifert, who had retired to bed übout fifteen minutes bolero, run out und endeavored to save u valuable cow that wan in the stable; ho was unable to do so, however, and would have probably perished in the Jinnies had not a Mr. Fordnoy broken open a door on North Htroot und affordod him moans of escape; his lace and hands nro very badly burned, nnd ho is contlnod to bod. Tho Humes soon sproad to a two story frame dwelling house alongside, owned by Mrs, Long, and which was occupied on tho side next the burnlngHtablo by Anthony Beni, and on the upporsiduby John Sohuer.

It keeps your customers in a good humor and gains new ones for you every day. it is the charm that smoothes and softens tho rough paths of business. It is tho '‘philoso pher’s stone” which turns everything you touch into gold. It invests commercial life with most of tho poetry which ever adorns it. It makes men like you, and love to deal with you. It gains you the kind words and good offices of those with whom you dally come in contact. It has been humorously and truly said by one, that ho preferrod making hU yearly doalings with a polite merchant who would cheat him a little, rather than with a rude, rough, and,habitu ally impolite one who would honest him a great deal! Honesty and honor are com mendable and shining qualities, It is true, but they nevor look better than when they are found in a sotting of genuine polltonoss and good breeding.

Beush, April 11, 1803, By reference to the advertisement of The Virgin Gold Mining Company of Colo rado,inourcolumns to-day, itwilfbu found that a very favorable opportunity Is there offered of securing nn " original" interest in tills region of Inexhnustiblo wealth. Professor Edward N. Kent, of the Now York Assay Otllou, who has visited this dis trict. says: “As to tho extent of tho gold mines of Colorado, I am not propured to glvo an OHtimnte,aH I found enough to fully omploy my time within a radius of five miles of Central City, (the location of the LodgoH of this Company,) but as to tho richness of THEM, I have no hesitation In saying, that I believe them to be the richest ever dis covered. With scienco, capital, and tho Pacific Railroad, Colorado Is destined in my opinion, to rlvul orsuporsodo California and Australia, and bocomo tho El Dorado of tho World." Tho largo basis of this enterprise—its choice Lodges—as well as Its fair und equita ble* features are such as to commend It to tho attention of all thoHe having surplus funds for investment. As "original Inter ests" In this Company can now bo lmd at §lOO each, those wishing to soouro thorn should at onco send ill their subscriptions. State Elections.

Virginia May It is urged by tho advocates of this plan that this third Beotion is the vitalone, with out which the others are of no value. Its exclusive action will no doubt commend it to the feelings of many as a wise and just provision, but I am unable so to regard it, because for four years it binds Congress to exclude from voting for representatives or presidential electors "all persons who vol untarily adhered to the late Insurrection, giving it uld and comfort." No matter what may ue tho condition of tho country, nor what proof's of present und future loyalty may be given, an absoluto constitutional bar is to bo oroctod for four years ugalnst a largo class of persons. Chunge of circum stances and condition often works rapid change lu party or political sentiments, und nowhere with more marked results than iu tho South. It Is boliovod that olements of change arc now at work there, stimulating on one side to loyalty, und on the oilier lending to con tinued hostllo feelings. Iu my Judgment, ovory proper incitement to union should be fostered and chorlshod, and for Congress to limit its own power by a constitutional amendment for tho porlod of four years, might be doploruble in its result. To those who (Hirer I adcord tho snmo honosty, and perhaps greater wisdom than I can claim for myself. As tho proposed plan now Blands, I am unublo to purcolvo the neces sity.

The Comptroller of the Currency haspre sented a statement showing the amount of money deposited in the national depositor ies to the credit of the Government disburs ing officers and agents. The amount is up wards of fifty millions of dollars. The report shows that millions are on deposit in banks which give only $50,000 as security for the same. The receipts from customs during the past len days, at the ports of New York, Boston, Philadelphia nnd Baltimore, were upwards of five millions in gold. Returns from the other ports will swell the amount to upwards of six millious. It Is intimated that the Government will have on hand on the first of September after paying all interest about one hundred and ten millions in gold. Among the avalanche pf statistics says the London correspondent of the Boston Post, that have been let loose upon the English nation, is the annual budget of Mr, Glad stone, who states at the present rate of con sumption in ono hundred and four years from time t all tho coal in England within four thousand feet from the surface, will have been consumed. Not only da the Eng lish coal beds furnish an annual supply of millions of tons to France, Belgium, Italy and other European nations, but STOh sup ply the United States with 12,000 tons. The quantity of coal mined last year in England was 84,000,000 of tons, and this is increasing annually at a rate of from 81 to 4 per cent. The size of such a mass as this incessantly drawn from the very vitals of the country, is something enormous, if only one reflects upon it, FROJS WASHIN GTOiff. Washington, May 22.

Three Firemen Miming. Terrible Scenes in the neighborhood of the fire. Families Fleeing In Panle from the Burning Dwellings. [From the World ol Tuesday. 1 A few minutes before twelve o’clock lost night a fire was discovered burning under the parquette of the Academy of Music. The smoke was first noticed on the north side of the building, near the Irving place entrance. An alarm was at once given, and promptly re sponded to by the Fire Department Owing to the dense volume of smoke, which soon filled the interior of the building, the firemen had great diffi culty In locating the exact spot where the fire was burning. It was supposed that the great mass of fire was under the floor of the Btage. Streams of water were at once directed throughout the building, but without effect, as the flames gained so rapidly that the fore men were driven from the Interior of the Academy, and it is feared that sev eral of the firemen were unable to extricate themselves, and are bur led under the ruIDS. The flames then Bpread so rapidly that in a few moments the whole of the interior was a mass of roaring, seething flames. The brlßk breeze blowing at the time caused the fire to burn more fiercely, and It was found that It would bo Im possible to save the building. The at tention of the firemen was then directed to saving the adjoining property. The medical college on Fourteenth street, immediately adjoining the Opera House, was on fire on the roof, ana efforts to Bave this building proved futile. The piano factory of ihne & Son, adjoining these, took fire on the roof, and in a few minutes flames were seen gushing out of all the windows. The flames then communicated to the restaurant on the northwest corner of Third Ave nue and Fourteenth street, and to the building Nos. 122, 124 and 120 Third Avenue, which were nearly all .de stroyed. The restaurant of John F. Lyng, No, 0 Irving place, also took fire, as did all the dwelling bouses on Fast Fifteenth street, and, with their contents, were ulmost entirely destroyed. The free chapel of Grueo Church, a beautiful building on the south side of Fourteenth street, was on lire several times, but by the application of copious streams of water, It was hoped that the building would be saved. Tlie Hippotbeatron, on the south side of Fourteenth street, wus lu great dan ger. All the live stock were removed, their frightened antics caused great amusement to the assent tiled crowd. The pluno factory of Wurcester it Co., on tho northeast corner of Fourteenth street and Third avenue, was also on nre. and it is feared that the building will bo destroyed. Nos. 128, 130, 132 and 134, Third ave nue, wore ulso on fire and partly de stroyed. KIBKSIKN SUPPOSED TO 11K KILLED. The missing firemen are Foremun David Waters, of Engine Company No. G, and Fireman Welch, of the same company. They wore both on the stage with the pipe of tho engine, when the great rush of Humes surprised them, and they were uuable to make their escape, auJ it is therefore feared they have perished in the flames. John Den nin, of Engine Company No. 13 was badly burned while in oharge of the pipe of the engine. IRVING PLACE. Irving place is all quietude. There’s certainly nothing strange about thiß fact, for at this hour (ten minutes after twelve, midnight) it’salwaysa quiet old neighborhood. Thereare gay audiences which having thronged the Aoademy of Music, Irving Hall, and other adja cent resorts, Imvereturnedto the silence of their homes; and the streets which peuled with their musloal laughter, as they Jaunted gaily towards their domi ciles, are again all silence. Hence the remark—"there’s nothing strange about It.” On tlie corner of Seventeenth street and Irving place, however, something is occurring which certainly strikes as “strange” suoh stragglers as may hap pen to be paßßlng that point—for they stop, and gazo, and make inquiries.— Half a dozen men are working rapidly about something that puffs, and hisses, and spurts, hut seems Intent on mak ing as little noise as possible. This proves on examination to bq a Are-en gine, and Its proximity suggests Are close at baud. This was, as stated before, at tun minutes past twelve. Jußt ten minutes later a dense black smoke breaks out from the roof of the celebrate (I old Academy of Music, Just over the stage. The darknesß, which has become Intensified by the rolling cloud, is suddenly rendered plerolng In brilliancy by abrlghtoddy.of solid flame, and then bursts upon all who have wit, nessd tho passing incidents, thsknowF edge that the greut hall of song, fash ion, nnd frlvolty is consuming by tiro. Brighter and brighter grow the flameß as the Aery element llolis up and bwbl jows eaoli dry portion of the wood work. The roof gradually gives way from rear to front, and as it falls into the raging furnace beneath—seems to add to in stead of assuaging its horrible uppetlto. The wind, which Is blowing strongly from tho west nnd northwest, soon drives tho flames with furnaco blast against the walls of the Medical Insti tute, which quickly shares tho fate of its predecessor. From the house tops in tho vicinity the scene was now ap pallingly sublime. The sky was uh brilliant as at noon day, and the little birds, under tlie be lief Hint day had arrived, were flying in all directions. From all parts of the city people wero flocking to the scene of destruction. The street cars wero huddled together and Immovable, while each cross-street was swarming with those "night owl Jehus” who liauut the regions of saloons.of gin and vice, ready to pounce upon their drunken quarry. The people la all the vicinity were on house-tops contemplating the scene, and everywhere the busy firemen tolled on. This imornlng a mass of ruins greets the eye, where so recently caroled the goddesses of song. No efforts could save the doomed structure. I.OSS OK WARDROnES, All of the wardrobes belonging to the stockholders of the building, and valued at $lOO,OOO was destroyed, as was also ttiat of Mr. Qrau’s company, valued at S2ij,ooo. A great portion of Maretzk’s wardrobe was also lu the building at the time and was totally destroyed. The amount of the lofes on this could not be ascertained.
