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.
Tho spoeches wore each grootod with ap
plause, und received testimonials In the
shnpo of handsomo boquots from thoir fair
friends present. The music by the City
Cornot liund was excellent
Inchnuiauimm.— On Tuesday night lust*

was given, Mr. Seifert, who had retired to

however, and would have probably perished

him moans of escape; his lace and hands

tho side next the burnlngHtablo by Anthony
Beni, and on the upporsiduby John Sohuer.
Boforo our energetic llremon wore able to
get wuturon tho building, tho Hrohud gulnod
such headway that it was impossible to Bavo
U. Thu tumults succeeded In saving most
of their properly from tho llames, but not,
wo regret to say, from the thieves. Tho
bent from the burning houses set on lire tho
roof of a two-story building on tho opposite
side of the street, belonging to Mr. A. Hjilflbl
and U was with grout difllculty tho Annies
worosubdued. The building is much injured}
it was occupied by John Weaver and Peter
Largo; their furniture was badly damagod

Politeness in business Is a large addi
tion to your capital already invested. 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.

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.

In tli© course of debate to-day, in tbe
House, on the Tobacco sections of the Tax
bill, Thad. Stevetis made some incidental
allusion to the condition of the cigar inter
est Bince the end of the war: Randall, of
Pennsylvania, promptly interrupted him,
and congratulated the House and the coun
try that the distinguished gentleman from
the Lancaster district was at lost willing to
allow that the war was really over. This
sally occasioned some laughter, amidst
which the Pennsylvania Mephlstophiies
arose with a grim smile, that betrayed his
consciousness of the awkward character of
his inadvertent admission, and declared
with vehemence that he did not consider
tho war kt an end—on the contrary, in hifl
opinion, it had just begun; he then took
bis seat, muttering that the copperhead
army was still in battle army; The dis
comfiture of tho hoary, radical chief was
evidently hugely relished on the Demo
cratic side.
THE ASSASSINATION CHARGE AGAINST DA
VIS.
Tho Sonate Committee, It is Bald, have
abandoned the investigation of Jeff. Davis’B
connection with the assassination plot. No
additional evidence has been elicited be
yond that indicated in thoconfcplracy trials,
and It is said that most of the evidence de
veloped in that trial implicating Davis hoe
been disproved. It is due to tho country
that all the facts In this matter now in the
hands of tbe committee should be given.
Tho President and the various merabere
of his Cabinet were serenaded to-night by
the National Union Club, attonded by a
vory largo concourse of citizens, numbering
several thousands.
Tho President was tho first to be compli
mented in this way.
In neknowledgnientof it, he ciuno in front
of tho Exocutivo mansion, and standing on
tho coping of tho balustrade, ho mado a vory
brief speech. His appoarauce was tho sig
nal for enthusiastic groutings. His words
wore n% follows:
THE PRESIDENT'S SPEECH.
Fkllow-citizijns: In appearance boforo
you this evening, it is simply for tho pur
pose of tendering to you my thanks—lor
this demonstration, and for the approbation
whioh you have manifostod on this occa
sion, and on many occasions before. Such
approbation is peculiarly gratifying and
encouraging to mo under existing circum
stances. All that will bo necessary Is to
porslst In tho support and maintenance of
correct principles; and tho day Is not dis
tant when the Amoricun peoplo will satisfy
you thut the good work you have com
menced is right, as It will so prove In the
ond. [Cheers.] I repoat my thanks for
your upprobution of my conduct usupubllc
man and a public servant.
Tlio President then retired, amid hearty
appiauso.
Nuorulnry Stanton, on being called out,
delivered a speech which bo hadjprovioiisly
written, so that his opinions might neither
bo accidentally misunderstood nor wilfully
misrepresented. Tho following is the most
important part of it. Mr. Stanton suid:
Another measure or serlos of measures
of prime importance now pending boforo
Congress, merits a brlot remark, namely
tho plan of restoration, or reconstruction as
it is sometimes called. To the plan ro
ixnled by the joint committee, I have not
Deon able to glvo my ussont. It contem
plates an amendment to tho Federal Con
stitution, the third section of tho proposed
urticlo being in these terms:
Section 3. Until the fourth day of July, lu
tho year IS7O. all persons who voluntarily ad
hered to ihe lute msurrectlon, giving It aid and
comfort, shall be excluded from tho right to vote
for Representatives to Congress and for elec
tors for President and Vice President of the
United Staten. >
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. Justice or wisdom of tho measure, but
having no place nor voice In the body bo
foro which tho mousuro is ponding, I dis
claim any purpose to Intorroro beyond the
expression of my own opinion.

It is asserted in high quarters that the
President has resolved to ohango his Cabi
net, and that several members of it will be
invited to resign in the course of a few
days.
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,

Terrible Scenes in the neighborhood of

[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. Palmer <!: Co., publishers
of the opera, lost in pictures and other
property over $lO,OOO.
THE NEWS THROUGHOUT THE CITY.
Notwithstanding the lateness of the
hour, the news of the conflagration
spread throughout the city, and crowds
from every quarter flocked to the vicinity
to witness the burning. Every car was
crowded with persons coming down
town and : going up town for this pur
pose, and the Third avenue, Irving
Place, Fourteenth street, Fourth avenue
and Union Square, was literally packed
wlththousanasofpeople. Every wooden
awning and shed, every lamp-post, every
tree and all the house-tops were occu-
Sied, and the sight revealed in the bril
ant glare of the fire was one of un
usual magnificence. The whole city
was illuminated, and the Bowery, for
its entire length, was almost as light as
day. The gilt signs on the buildings
shone with the brilliancy of sunset, and
could easily be fead at a distance.
People residing In the neighborhood
came from theirhedß. men, women, and
even children hurrying out to see the
sights.
FOURTEENTH STREET DESERTED.
Owing to the terrific heat of the fire
the whole section of Fourteenth
street from Fourth avenue to Third
avenue was almost deserted. The fire
men were'unable to stand their ground
here, and the only persons visible were
two or three gangs of men who were
doing their utmost to keep the Hlppo
theatron from taking fire. The portico
of this building, however, was in flames
a number of times, but the wind being
fayorable, the flames were. speedily ex
tinguished. The dwelling houses, It
was feared, would take fire, but the ef
forts made to save them were successful,
and at the latest report from the scene
of the fire they were untouched by the
flames.
THE SCENE
at 1} o’clock was one of thrilling magni
ficence. The entire block encompassed
by Fourteenth street, Irving place,
Fifteenth street, 1 , and Third avenue,
seemed to be one inass of flame, and in
deed every building standing hr this
block was at that time on Are. Every
building fronting on Third avenue, ft
fcspected would be destroyed, al
though the .firemen were engaged In
dolng’-'thelr bbst to save them.. The
street was actually covered with burn
ing coals, and the clothing of a number
of spectators took fire. j j
On the easterly side of the street the
only building on fire was Worcester's
Piano Factory; but it was feared that
the dwelling adjoining this wonld yield
to the pressure of heat and the immense
volume of blazing coals that were con
stantly falling upon it, and be consumed
with the other buildings. As far as the
eve coaid reach up the avenue every
onjeot was plainly visible as if seen by
daylight, while the rushing of crowds,
the working of steamers, and the shouts
of the multitude, and all the other cir
cumstances incident to the occasion,
made the scene unusually thrilling.

“There are many reasons for this

tfwhich are the outrageous character of
many of tho provisions of the now Con
