futeltiona. Fulton Mill Exploslon—Testimony be fore the Coroner's Jury. (CONTINUED.] Tuesday Dvening.—The jury niet at iy o'clock. - - Sheldon S. Spencer, affirmed: Am one of the stockholders, and have had the man agement of the Fulton Mill; I know noth ing of the explosion besides the fact of its occurrence; am ignorant of the cause; or dered the boilers from Mr. Best, believing, from my experience, that he made good boilers; the engine could be worked up to 80 horse-power; I calculated for 70 horse power, which I thought was as much as we needed.; contracted for boilers sufficient to furnish that amount of power; after we had got all the machinery running I tested the amount of power used with an indica tor, (an instrument made for that purpose,) and found that we were using 621 horse power, which somewhat surprised me, as it was less than I expected; there was at little steam used for soma of the other ma chinery, which the boilers made; we never used more than 67, or at the very outside 70, on any occasion; there was as high as 75 pounds pressure on the boilers when the indicator was used to testthe power; I was glad to find that we needed less power than I had supposed; 75 or even 70 pounds of steam were sufficient to drive the load ; sty calculation when the mill started wasthatwe would not need more than 75 or 80 at any time ; on some days, however the tires would not make steam fast enough, and.we found more pressure was needed ; lordered the engineer to set the weights on the valve at 90; they would then blow off at 90, and furiously at 95; saw it but few times as high as 95, anal never knew the pressure had been higher until I heard the testimony given here ; did not know of any additional weight being put on, and would not have allowed it to be put above 90 pounds had I knowli it; her the valve was at 90, the pressure would get up to 95 when the engine was standing, and the lire was good; the engineer and fireman never expressed any fear lal the boilers blowing up, or any doubts at their safety in any respect; they never said :n word of the kind to ma; I,was in thiamin very frequently,sometimes every day, sometimes every other day; was thereon Thursday previous to the explosion, hut not on Friday; nearly always looked into thel tuna eve anal tried the water; order ed them always to keep the water above the second gauge; !lover saw as great a lire here ate ill 80111 e other places, and generally not so great ; have seen and had fires, in furnietes of the same size, which burned one-eight up In ono-leurth more fuel regu larly than not make so hot a lire !e.t.a., on lessen int of the construction of the 'lines; the engine worked better at 75 pounds pressure than at SO; would rather have had but 75, if we could have kept it up ; there must he sortie reserve power, as after petting on fresh fuel, or water, volt generate less steam lair at time; we rain tie looms, with all the necessary. machinery; 300 looms could lie run with 250 horse power ; looms would Lake more than 40 horse power; as a rule, you want one horse-power tat at 1::11111; 1111'Sil boilers were never asked to Intake 1110113 steam than 35 horse-power each, awl there are . just , 111,11 boilers running at .15 to 50, but we have more of them together, and if one is not quite up to the mark, ;trio her !mikes it up; have had 111,111 furnish at least 20 horse power more than these were ever asked for; have Ito ined Ile theory of the explosion that is satisfactory 'sera to myself; Viall - sidereal the boilers were as well in:ideas they could be, having particularly charged the builder to Ili: ant , 111111 believed :and still be lieve he did ; :all the ether boilers he has innate rill' 1111V0 given tint iresatislaction ; cannot tell what collapsed the flues; it is possible that the pressure may have beet great enough, or that they might have been collapsed lay conning in contact with some thing lifter the exploHimi ; 1 . 1.11 see lira 11111 i cations of low water, and believe it was up to proper height, both front the testimony to that effect and the appearance of the boiler; it is possible that the witnesses may brave been mistaken ;

such boilers ought to lasts or ill years; particularly good and well cared for, and the iron net allowed to be suddenly einittracted; they might last :IS 101Ig as 15 years; they should hold out I() years without nuteli if any repairing; the boiler which leaked had a crack in one of the sheets, all imperfect plate probably; it is not uncommon for now boilers to ten l: ; 1111V1. seen them leak so badly that you could hardly keep water up even with the pump ran all the tittle; have seen boilers that afterwards worked well for 11or 15 years, which leaked so much at first thatthere wasii inches of water a in the floor in the boiler house; after a day or two, or perhaps a week, the leaking stops; it is common to have but one gnaw.) to a set nf boilers; we had 11110 111:Ill' the satins ill position where the engineer could hardly look up without seeing it; :and to make sure, another was put in the other room, where the fireman was, right beside the furnace doors; I thought I would take even 1111:11l thiuu usmtl precautions, anal wanted every safeguard passible; had the greatest confidence in the engineer especial . ly ; he hail worked with me anal Mr one many yours, and I thought him one M . the most carefii own I ever knew; every one who knew film gave him that eharacter; the fireman I had known for eight or ten 11101101 S; 1 had watched hint and conversed with line, and believed and still believe that he was more than twchitarily careful; I visited Mrs. II mach ou the day of the disaster; Mr. Jackson and Mr. Hinter accompanied me; I believe the visit was made at nay suggestion ; we thought it but right to see whether we could be of any assistance to Mrs. Harnett in making the needful arrangements; when we made our offer, she said the arrangements were al ready in charge of her brother, and all was settled ; she then made a voluntary state ment, to the client that she had always feared for her husband's safety, and had said to him that lan would steno day be brought home killed or blown up; that he laughed tat her, saying that he looked for nothing of the kind, and felt 1111 relll'S of such a thing happening; as the no: donated was thus vol tint:icily !mule, one of the other gentlemen put the question whether he had ever ex pressed any fears, when she answered in the SHIM' way, that he had not ; Sirs. Ilantch dial net 'appear particularly affected at the thine; sine was depressed in spirits, of ' course; have known her some time, and 81.1 W nothing to indicate that she (lid not know What she was saying; on the con trary, its I remarked to one of the others, she appeared more wain than one would expect; do not think many women would appear so much so in the circumstances; we had no expectation when we went of holding any such conversation ; went with no such purpose, but simply to effer our sery lace, its stated. jno. It. Ilitner, sworn: Am a stockholder in the mill; know nothing about the ex plosion ; my last visit to the mill previous ly was probably a couple of weeks before, but cannot say exactly; neither the (mgi neer nor any other person about the will ever intimated any fear of danger from the boilers, and never knew they had any; saw the wreck ; ant not familiar with iron ; have seen locodotive boilers that had been blown up ; they indi cated low water more than this one, and hail inure flues collapsed ; the lines were both iron and copper, and 1 thought those in this boiler did not look like the iron ones I had seen front exploded locomotives; I do not profess to be uompetent to give a posi tive opinien on the mutter; I heard of the explosion while:it market, but had so much confidence in the efficiency of the boilers and the affi I ity i.f the engineer that I (Pd not believe it; was at Mrs. Munch's with Mr. Spencer ; went for the purpose he stated ; she said her brother had taken chargeof the arrangements; she voluntarily began the conversation, saying that she had often told her husband he would better work at his trade, :Ind leave the engine; she said that after the Philadelphia explosion, her fear increased, and she spoke to Min of the inat• ter; he laughed at her, and said he was careful, and minded his business, and there was no danger; I thought that this was a good time to put the question, whether she had any recollection whatever that Mr. Hanteh ever expressed any fears of danger from the boilers; she replied "no, ho never did—l was afraid, but he laughed at me ;" thought she knew what she was saying; she appeared more calm and sell-possessed than I had expected to find her; she came into the room where the corpse was, and sat on the sofa while the conversation was go• tug on ; I was at the mill several [hues when they spoke of having to stop for want of steam ; at that time I asked Mr. Hamel) whether he had not sufficient power; he said that engine would drive any thing you could hung on in that mill; he seemed to think it a trilling mutter, not worth explaining about; he said once the draft was not good ; I said I was disappointed in that stack ; he said he could not account for it, as it ought to give draft enough : on one or two occasions, he said the coal Mr. Calder sent up was not good, and they could not make steam well i with t ; he never intimated to me that there ought to be more boiler. Geo. Calder, Jr., sworn: Am one of the stockholders, and attend to the buying and selling for the mill, paying off the hands, etc. ; Mr. Spencer has charge of the manu facture of the goods; have had frequent conversations with the engineer; was at the mill almost every day when in town, often twice a day, sometimes three times, staying from half an hour to an hour; al most invariably went in and out through the engine-room ; generally looked at the steam gauge ; the highest I recollect of see ing it was 90, I think on but one occasion ; this was directly after dinner ; have seen itat 80 on a number of occasions, but never over 90; not very often as high as 85, generally from 70 to 80;• Mr. Hantch said the engine ran best with 70 or a little over; when the pressure was greater it did not run so smoothly ; never' heard him or any one express fears of explosion from insuffliency of the boil ers ; would not have stayed about there so • much bad I supposed there was danger, nor allowed any one else to run the risk ; would not have risked the property I had in the mill; heard the explosion, and went up soon after; have seen the boiler and col lapsed flues since, know nothing of boilers ; never saw an exploded one before; have no knowledge from which to form any opin ion of the cause that would be worth any thing ; I bought the coal, it was not furnished by me; Mr. Hantchi sometimes said the coal was not good, a ometimes that there was not draft enough; they were using good coal at the time of the explosion; I never interfered In any way with any one about the mill ; if I saw anything wrong, I would report it to Mr. Spencer; never heard any complaint or fear of danger from either engineer or fireman, even when they could not get steam ; suppose they would not have thought me the person to complain to ; have paid no particular attention to the operations of steam, and have no theory of the explosion that satisfies myself; was present once shortly after Mr. Plummer came; Mr. Wiley, one of the stockholders, was also there, and said if there was any thing, wanted, he should just say so, and it would be furnished; we did not know what two-thirds of the machinery would cost until the bills came ; it was contracted for without a fixed price, to be of the best material and description; it was intended to be a first-class mill, and we stopped at no expense. John W. Jackson, affirmed: Am a stockholder; know nothing of the cause of the disaster; had not been in the mill for some months; never heard any one about it express any fears for the safety of the boilers ; heard of the difficulty in raising steam, but nothing of danger ; have known Mr. Ilanteh for some years; he never said anything to me about the boilers being in sufficient; went with Messrs. Spencer and Bitner to tender our services to the family; Mrs. Druckamiller admitted us; [witness repeated the conversation with Mrs. Hautch in the same words a.s Mr. Bauer ;] am satisfied she knew what she Said ; she was calmer than I would have expected ; do not mean to say she was not affected; many persons shed no tears in such circumstances whose feelings are deepest, and this may have been her case; I saw the wreck, but am not competent to judge of the condition of the boiler and flues; have formed no theory, and have nothing to base a theory upon. This 01050‘1 the testimony, and the wit nesses left the Coroner and his jury together to deliberate upon their verdict. After two hours of discussion, they adjourned with out agreeing upon a verdict. Wednesday Eveniny.—The jury reassem bled and after some deliberation, agreed upon the following verdict: Lancaster Gbrrnty, S.Y. The inquest summoned by ( . :eorge Leon ard, Esquire, Coroner of said county, to inquire into the cause of the death of David llanteli and others, killed by the explosion of a steam boiler at the Fulton Cotton Mill on the thirteenth day of July, last past, or who died in consequence ofinjuries received by the explosion, in addition to the Inquisi tions by them found in each case the jurors do find and present the following, that is to say: That according to theevidence before thorn the boiler which exploded was well constructed ofgood material ; that there was ull Lien t water in both :boilers but a few minutes before the explosion occurred; that no blame can be attached to the proprietors of the utill or any of the employees. That the explosion was occasioned by causes to thejumrs unknown. Itt testimony whereof, the said Coroner and the jurors have hereunto set their hands and seals this twenty-fourth day of July. A.

In stead thereof he would substitute the fol lowing, viz: That the immediate cause or causes of the explosion are to the jurors unknown; but they lind that the boilers of said mill were frequently subjected to an amount of pressure calculated to impair their durability and hasten their deterior ation, :ind that this was a cause contribut ing to the explosion in in remote degree.

Falk, who has been connected with Franklin and Marshall College lbr the last year as Professor of Greek and History, left our city on Friday last, to assume the duties of the same position in Racine Col lege; Racine, Wisconsin. While he was here be made many friends, and leaves with the regrets of all with whom he had any intercourse. Franklin and Marshall College have lost an able and efficient pro fessor, and Racine College may congratu late itself upon being able to obtain the services of the Doctor. Previous to his connection with our College be held the position of Professor of Greek and Ancient History in St. James College, Md., which was compelled to suspend on account or the invasion or Maryland by Lee's Army.

MOVNTVILLE. -Au event occurred on Tuesday at the residence of Dr. Rohrer, in this lovely village, situated nearly midway between this city and Columbia, which will be found duly recorded in our list of marri ages to-day. The occasion was a joyful one, end the invited guests were numerous; the morning train going up laden with them, while many more arrived in car riages. Two very distinguised guests were pr 'out who gave additional eclat to the affair—ex-President Bu chanan and Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, both being friends and patients of the far-famed physician, who on the occasion tilled the place of groom. The ceremony was per formed shortly after twelve o'clock, and alter an afternoon very pleasantly passed, tile bridal party, about five o'clock, left in carriages for Lancaster, amid the cheers of the company, the casting of the shoe not being neglected; after which the guests dispersed to their various homes. RAISING TROUT.-A Hartford paper sug gests to farmers in the vicinity of that city that it would be a good thing, if they would stock the little brooks on)their farms with trout. It says: " Mostoflour streams have a few troutjjt them, which are taken out by sportsmen in the early spring, or scooped out by nets later in the season. The farmers might easily stock the heads of the brooks with thousands of trout every year. Their propagation is very easy, and the supply of this most delicate fish might be abundant. In addition to this, let them prosecute every man who attempts to use a net in the brooks, and in a year or two all our little streams would again abound in speckled trout." This suggestion is valuable, and the fanners hereabout might do well to follow it. KILLED ON TIIE RAILIIOAD.-A known young man about 19 years old, was killed last night by being knocked off of the top of a train of cars passing under the bridge just this side of Leaman Place. —Since the above was written, the body has been brought to the city and lies in the Baggage-room of the Pennsylvania Rail road Company for identification. An in quest was held by the Coroner, and a verdict in accordance with the facts was given, and that the company are in no way responsible. COTJNTERFEIT.—We were shown this morning a counterfeit twentydollar bill on the Fourth National Bank of Philadelphia. The note, upon inspection, can be easily detected, as the engraving is very roughly done, and the note presents a very pale ap pearance ; yet we advise all to look at bills of that denomination on that Bank before taking them, Commencement Exercises of Franklin and Marshall College•—Alnmut Dinner The Biennial Addresa 'before the Ckethean Society...TheCkethean Greet• log, &e. ADDRESS BEFORE THE A.LIIHNI. The Commencement exercises ofFranklin and Marshall College were opened on Thee'. day last, by an address before the Alumni Association by Rev. S. H. GieEsy, of Phila delphia. His subject was Normal Hu manity, or Man in the Light of the Divine Idea. The address was carefully prepared and evidenced no little research, and a de cided tendency to metaphysical methods of thought. It was delivered to a rather slim but intelligent audience. The heat of the weather, we suppose, deterred many per. sons from being present. After the delivery of the address a meet ing of the Alumni Association was held and quite a large namivr of them were found to bej present. The occasion was a very pleasant one, the associations of former years being revived. Hon. George W, Brewer, of Chamhersburg, was elected President of the Alumni Association. 122= At 12 o'clock on Wednesday, the Alumni and their invited guests sat down to a dinner, which had been prepared under the supervision of a Committee of the As sociation, and which was got up in a style that reflected credit upon all concerned.- 1-lon. George W. Brewer, President of the Alumni Association, presided at the ban quet, and after the good things on the table had been disposed of, speeches were made by a number of gentlemen. Rev. Dr. Gerhart gave a brief history of the origin and early struggles of Marshall College, and paid a deserved tribute to its first President, Rev. Frederick A. Rauch. , Prof. Wm. M. Nevin entered into the his: tory and origin of the names of the Gcethean Diagnothian Societies. Ills speech was the gem of the post prandial exercises. It abounded in sparkling wit and humor, and was delivered with a quaint gravity that added to the piquancy of itsnumerous happy hits. Prof. Falk, after referring with pride to the literary and educational ins.itutions of his native land, which were the growth of long centuries of time, expressed the agree able surprise he experienced on arriving in America, to find how much had been done to establish similar institutions here in the short period of our existence as a people. He exhorted the Alumni of "Franklin and Marshall" to stand shoulder to shoulder in support of their Alma Mater,'and build her up till she shall stand the acknowledged peer of the proudest literary institution of the ()Id World. Prof. Porter read a poem, the production, he said, of some native genius whose mod esty was so overpowering that he would not permit h . e es-latt) to be given. Dr. John L. At suke of the luke warmness of the . :i 0. ieris of Lancaster towards Franklin nd Marshall College, and attributed this to a feeling prevalent here that the Church under whose a ff:pittes the institution had been founded had her self fallen short of her duty toward t[.. This cause removed, lie felt confident the citizens of Lancaster would respond gen erously to any movement iu its favor. Rev. Dr. Wolf, responding to a sentiment in honor of the thunders and trainers of our institution of learning, paid a special tribute to thou„ who had guided the infant foot steps of Marshall college. Alluding to the [sour hundred alumni whose names grace her catalogue, he said that each of these had but to raise live hundred dollars in or der to provide a splendid endowment fund. Ile offered to devote the remaining years of his life, without any pecuniary compensa tion, to the raising ofa fund that would place the college MI ;1 sure foundation. ltev. Dr. Harbaugh, whose theme was the Mercersburg Review, delivered a speech to which it would be impossible for us to do justice without the aid of a font of "Penn sylvania Dutch" type. It created great merriment, and was laughed at almost as immoderately by the Deutsche alumni who could understand it as by the Scotch-Irish who couldn't ! Prof. Apple, Rev. Dr. Fisher, Hon. G. W. Brewer, Hon. .J. W. Killinger, and others, also responded to calls, all acquit ting themselves admirably and being loudly applauded. TEE BIENNIAL ADDRESS The Biennial hddress before the Gcethean Literary Society of Franklin and Marshall College was delivered on Wednesday evening by Rev. E. E. Higbee, of the Theological Seminary at Mercersburg.— His subject, "Influence of the Reforma_ tion on English Literature," was an appropriate one for the occasion, and was properly handled in a strong and well digested speech. The effort was in all respects a most creditable one, and we are sorry that time and space will not allow us to give it a more extended notice. The Third Triennial Greeting of the Giethean Literary Society took place in the evening, after the delivery of the Biennial Address. A sumptuous supper was spread in the banquetting room of Fulton Hall. .':A.fter the members and their guests had taken seats at the table, they were addressed by Mr. Jas. Crawford, the President of the Society, who, after bidding them welcome to the feast, said that in accordance with their custom he would now call upon them to choose some person to preside over their festivities. Rev. Samuel R. Fisher was selected and duly installed at the head of the table. Rev. Cyrus Cort then read a humorous Poem, which was greatly enjoyed and loudly applauded, and which, from its spiciness, imparted a relish to the feast that followed. The banquet was then partaken of, after which the "feast of reason" was resumed. Rev. Samuel R. Fisher, one of the founders of the ( lo , theati Society favored the com pany with a history of its organization in the borough of York, iu the year 1835. It had ten original members. Two of these are dead ; of two others nothing is known ; but the remaining six still live and keep in communication with oneanother. Referring to those who had come after these original members, he praised them for their zeal and devotion, and pointed to their Hall, their Library. their Museum, &c., &c., as the evidences of what they had accom plished. lion. George W. Brewer read an essay upon "thethe, the Genius of German Lit erature." This effort was marked by the glowing language and rich imagery that characterize Mr. Brewer's literary produc tions and always captivate his hearers. It was not only an eloquent tribute to the great author, but a rich, warm picture of the "land of wine and song," bringing the fatherland so vividly before the listener that he seemed to see her vine-clad hills and to hear the murmuring ripples of her storied Rhine. Wm. S. Stenger, Esq., taking for his sub ject " College Days," spoke of the duty of the student to work. As want of bodily exercise leads to decay of physical power, so, said the speaker, does intellectual stag nation result in intellectual death. And as college days, rightly appreciated and im proved, would be a perpetual blessing, so also their abuse would be a life-long scourge and torment. Mr. Stenger concluded by pronouncing a eulogy of unsurpassed beauty upon a deceased member of the rival Society, (Diagnothian,) a classmate of his, who in his lifetime had filled the full measure of a diligent student, a model gen,tleraan and a good christian. (lou. B. F. Fisher, having for his theme " Our Country and hor Brave Defenders* very appropriately opened up by unchain ing the great American Eagle and sending her abroad to flap her stalwart wings in the face of the crowned heads of Europe. This•done, he proceeded to pay a just, hand some and feeling tribute to the memory of the patriotic men whose light of life had gone out on the ensanguined fields where the battles of the Union had been fought and won.. Dr. S. B. Kieffer had for his subject "Mercersburg—our old Mountain Home," and all who heard him will avouch that he was entirely "at home" upon that subject. He kept the audience in a continual roar of laughter, and if the sense of those present had been taken when he sat down, we are sure it would have been decided unani mously that his was the "crack" perform ance of the evening. Rev. E. E. Higbee, a highly impressive speaker, , discoursed upon the necessity of establishing, a " Reformed University." He gave the reasons that, impelled him' to think . the .Reformed Church .should take a step forward and establish a.literary insti tution of higher grade than any now un der her Control. The Reverend gentle man's earnest manner and forcible argu ments produced a strong impression upon his hearers, and we think it not improba ble that he will some day carry the point he has in view. The sum of five hundred dollars was raised in subscriptions of ten dollars each, to purchase a Perpetual Scholarship which the Gcethean Society desired to become the owner of, after which (at about one o'clock A. M.) the exercises were concluded by singing "Auld Lang Syne." The Thirty first Annual Commencement of Franklin and Marshall College took place on Thursday last, in Fulton Hall. The morning session commenced at 9 o'clock, opening with prayer. The Hall was filled to its utmost capacity, the crowd of gaily dressed ladies, who thronged it, making the scene a most at tractive one tc4all who had a just taste and a true appreciation of the beautiful in nature and in art ; for weare not of those who be lieve that nature unadorned is adorned the most, and we have a realizing sense of the effectiveness with which the gay ribbon and the other et ceteras of the feminine toilet, set off and adorn the beauty of even God's best gilt to man. -Abraham H. Dotterer, of New Hanover, Pa., was the first on the list of the speak ers. His subject was "How much we know," and he seemed to have a sensibly written address, though he spoke in so low a tone that we were not able to follow him throughout. Tilghman Derr, of Turbutsville, Pa., fol lowed him, describing "How little we know," in a more audible tone of voice than his predecessor. Neither of these gentlemen displayed marked oratorical tal ent. Ambrose C. Geary, of Pennsburg, Pa., discussed the German element in the United States. and German Literature generally, of which he had a high and just appreciation; he thought however that the German element in our country should Americanize itself as soon as possible. Joseph 11. Keillmer, of Clear Spring, Md., seemed to have a correct idea of the elements which constitute "The True Gen tleman," but he spoke in H. very low tone and in a fearfully rapid manner. He must have had a bet against time, on his per formance. James 1.. Forrierti, of Germantown, Pa., delivered au excellent oration upon "The Mother Country," and was the first one of the speakers who gave evidence of ability as an rumor. His voice is very good, and he is not afraid to use it; his gesticulation was easy, and the matter of his address well conceived. He could not understand the want of sympathy which exists between the United States and England, nor why the despotic Government of Russia could awaken a livelier sympathy in the Ameri can heart than is accorded to our mother country, whose institutions are so much more liberal and free. Why is it? Irwin W. Bieber, of Kutztown, Pa., de livered the Franklin Oration upon " Iris torical Imagination," in a somewhat pecu liar and disjointed style, and one which we deemed faulty. From the address itself we must withhold criticism; owing to the man ner of i is composition we were unable, in the position which we occupied, to follow the speaker with sufficient closeness to obtain the drift of his argument. Wm. D. Seltzer, of Womelsdorl, Pa., spoke of " Representative 'Men." Mr. Seltzer has a very good delivery, and a tine, strong voice, although he carries it on too dead a level, giving it too little variety of modulation. ills speech was well written, and his effort throughout, quite good, al though we cannot endorse all his views. Hedeemed Mr. Lincoln,for instance,the rep resentative man of America,the embodiment of all the great traits of its people, the epi tome and essence of their virtues; and thought his name would be forever written on a tablet in the skies—notwithstanding he went to the theatre on Good Friday. Nathan C. Schaeffer, of Maxatawny, Pa., delivered the 2d Franklin Oration, upon "The Romance of Modern Mechanism," dilating upon the wonderful productions of the inventive genius of our times. Ile spoke very quietly and in a low tone of voice. Theodore F. Nevin of Washington, D. closed the morning session with an oration upon the Pacific Railroad. His speech was well written, but in its delivery Mr. Nevin did not do himself full justice, speaking too carelessly and not throwing sufficient energy into his tone until he had nearly finished. The Hall required strong effort to till it this morning, as the windows were all open, and an abominable noise of loud conversation was kept up at the door, by those who ought to have been more thoughtful of the audience. The speaker concluded by expressing the hope that the faculty, the graduating class, the Alumni, the friends of the college and all present might eventually be safely car ried home to the skies on a great moral pacific railroad. lie had scarcely gathered up his allotment of boquets and taken his seat, when Rev. Dr. Nevin advanced to the front of the stage and announced to the Al umni that railroad tiikets home were ready for themiat the study Rev. Mr. Kremer. Such of the audience as saw the j oke smiled audibly, while those who did not see it wondered what the merriment meant. Afternorm , S'ession.—The audience reas sembled in the Hall at 3 P. M., when, after prayer, the Marshall oration was delivered by John S. Stahr, of Applebachville, Pa. Ile treated of the natural and the moral, in an essay evincing a good deal of study and thought, and resembling much a ser mon in its matter and delivery. The Valedictory was spoken by John K. Bross, of Harrisburg. In a smoothly writ ten effort, but with constrained gesticula tion, he bade farewell in complimentary terms, successively, to the citizens of Lan caster, the Trustees, the Faculty, his fellow students, and finally his classmates. After the Degrees had been conferred, Dr. Nevin, the President of the college, deliv ered the Baccalaureate address, and the ex ercises concluded with the benediction.— Music during the day was furnished by the city Cornet Band. SYMPOSIUM or THE PEIVNA. ETA CHAP TER OF THE PHI-KAPPA-PSI FRATERNITY. —Among the pleasant recollections of col lege life none are reverted to with so much pleasure by the student as those associated With his fraternity. In the charmed circle are garnered his most cherished college memories. Among all, the Symposium is a fixed institution, and one of the most re cherche affairs of the commencement week of Franklin and Marshall College, was the Symposium of the Penna. Eta Chapter of the Phi-Kappa-Psi Fraternity, held at Jonathan •Sprechees Hotel on Thursday evening, the 25th inst. The supper was au fait, and " Johnny " and his amiable lady won golden opinions for the elegant supper prepared. The table was crowded with roast fowl, fresh peaches and other fruit, and all the delicacies of the season. After the cloth was removed, a historical sketch of the Chapter and a poem were read, after which regular and volunteer toasts followed. The attendauce was large, most of the graduate members of the Chapter being present, while guests from the Penna. and 'Leta, and Epsilon, and Ohio Alpha were present, including the especial guest, M. C. Herman, Esq., of Carlisle, Pa., the present supreme officer of the fraternity.— It was toward the wee sma' hours when the Phi-Psi's parted with another white mark in their fraternity calender. The reunion of the Chi-Phi's the same evening was a decided success, and all parties interested were highly pleased. THE RE-UNION OF THE DIAGNOTHIAN. —The annual Re-union of the Diagnothian Literary Society of Wednesday evening was an occasion of interest, and one which will be remembered by the many who partici pated in it. Quite a number of the gradu ates of Franklin and Marshall College of former years, who had also been active members of the Society, were present.

It is situated on the valley road leading from Peuningtcmville to McCall's ferry, on the Susquehanna. This road is crossed by the Newport road near by, before the in vention of railroads, a much traveled and important highway. The hotel at this place is one of the oldest in the county, having been kept as a public house for over 100 years. From time immemoi hit it has been the place of holding elections in old Bart.— This district has mostly been very close, hence there is always considerable excite ment and a sharp contest at the polls. The hotel has changed hands quite frequently in the last 20 years, and is now owned and kept by Adam Rutter, who is a clover fel low and it,,,kind, obliging landlord. The valley, on the edge of which the "Green Tree" is situated, is one of the most beautiful portions of the State, and is rich in agricultural and mineral wealth.— The farm just south of the place, with its pleasant looking dwelling and magnificent barn, formerly belonged to Wm. L. Rake straw, and was sold by him to the " Phienix Iron Company." The smoke that you see across the fields about a quarter of a mile away, comes from Ihe engine employed at the "Iron are Mines" of the Company for pumping water and washing the ore, pre paratory to hauling it to Christiana, from whence it is shipped to Phoenixville. The mines are worked by 18 men, and a fifteen horse power engine. They take out torty tons of the best Hematite ore per day. It is then hauled by nine teams to the Penn sylvania Railroad at Christiana, a distance of live miles, from whence it is shipped.to Phoenixville by railroad. The teams de liver monthly nine hundred tons. The amount it costs when delivered at Christi ana, including the taking out and hauling, is two dollars per ton. The mines contain an immense body of ore; they are twenty live feet deep, and have a breast of about fifty feet in length ; the ore commences four feet from the surface, and its depth time and labor will yet determine. The ex penses at this mine per mouth, are over two thousand dollars. " Green Tree" is situated on the line of the Portland and St. Louis Telegraph route, which passes along the valley, and a rail road has been projected from Coatesville, in Chester county, to Quarryville, in Eden township, which when built will pass close by the Hotel. A branch of the Octoraro creek passes the hotel, and a short distauceabove is Cooper's mill. Below are 'Whitson's, Hevberger's and Boon 6.; Harley's mills, all doing a thriving business. The farms in this section are rich and productive, and the crops this year have been unusually good. CotX IfllA AFFAIR:3.—We clip the follow ing:elum the Spy: Workmen have been engaged for some time past in repairing breaks in the Col umbia dam, and as the river has been very low, and the weather favorable, the repairs will be completed, we believe, in a few days. On Tuesday last we noticed three huge boilers on the wharf at steamboat landing, awaiting shipment to 'Luther side. They were manufactured at Norristown, and in tended for the new furnace at Wrightsville, which we believe is nearing completion rapidly. On Wednesday evening last a slight fire occurred in an out-buildingon the property of James Daily, in Walnut street. Fortu nately it was extinguished by the aid of buckets, ,before any serious damage was done, or an alarm was created. A few days since as Mr. John Fisher was ascending a ladder, when about ten feet up, it slipped, precipitating Mr. F. to the ground with such force as to considerably injure his back and left hip. With the aid of a cane he is able to be around oversee ing that the delivery of the mails is pro perly attended to. Judging from the number of cars which passed this place, over the Pennsylvania Railroad last week, business must be brisk, The number passing east and west during the last week are as follows: Passed Colum bia, eastward, over 3,000. Passed Columbia, westward, over 2,800. These numbers do not include passenger cars. Some villains entered the house of Mrs. Crosby, on Walnut street, this borough, some time since, and stole therefrom $OO. She had the money placed, as she thought, in a secure place. The thief must have been well acquainted with the premises as nothing else was disturbed. There has been no clue to the perpetrator as yet. We also learn that the house of Charles McLaughlin, on Perry street, was visited by one or more of these nocturnal prowlers, a few days since, during the absence of the family, and money to the amount of $400.00 taken therefrom. Cannot some measures be inaugurated by our borough authorities to protect the property of our citizens from these rogues? These petty robberies are getting to be a common occurrence in our midst, and there appears to be very few arrests made. The "police force" will have to be increased. MOUNT JOY AFFAIRS.—We clip the fol lowing from the Herald: On Monday afternoon the barn and corn house of Isaac Hershey, about two miles west of this place, filled with hay and grain, were destroyed by fire. A lad about eleven years of age, who lives with Mr. Hershey's son on the farm, it is said, acknowledges that lie set it on fire while playing with matches. Evangelical Camp Meeting will be held in the woods at Ephrata Mountain Springs, commencing on Saturday, August 3d, and continue until Friday, August 9th. All Christian. denominations are respectfully requested to attend. Arrangements have been made to accom modate all with boarding by the Proprietor of the Springs. The Reading and Columbia Railroad Company will issue excursion tickets at half price, good from August 2d until August 10th. The German Baptists,known as the River Brethren, held their first Harvest meeting at C. H. Hershy's house on Thursday. The service are the same as at the regular meet ings, but the sermons are generally directed to the duty of thankfulness for natural blessings. Harvey Shelly, son of J. B. Shelly of the Red Lion Hotel, broke both bones of his fore arm by falling from a fence near Ziegler's school house on Tuesday afternoon The bones were set by Dr. J. L. Ziegler. Last week on the farm of David Horst in Rapho township, one of the hands in bind-, ing ap grain discovered the tail of a racoon in one of the gavels, which had been freshly amputated byithe'sw_eeping knives of the reaper. The dwner,Mowever, was among the missing._ THEM: is nothing more certain to prevent female irregularities than Dr. Velpan's Female Pills.

TIM PLAN of the Washington librarY Com pany of Palladelphia le to offer to the public an interest in a charitable institution by offer ing stock in shares of one dollar, for which a certificate is given with an engraving fully worth the money paid.

From Washington WASHINOTON, July 30—It is expected that (=en. Hancock's appointment as Com mander of the sth District, in place of Gen. Windom, will be decided at the session of Cabinet to be held to-day. The President informed the Louisiana Delegation, which called on hint yesterday, that he had deter mined to remove Gen.

C., ruralizing, and are not expected here for two weeks. Thespe cial committee of Congress to investigate affairs of the pay department, have taken a recess for ten clays. [SECOND DESPATCH.] WA , fimiToN, July 30.—The National Intelligencer says we are satisfied that the statement in tho despatches from this city, to the effect that the President has deter mined to issue a proclamation warning those concerned to refrain from violating our neutrality laws by the invasion of Mex ico, are premature. Mr. Seward is still absent from the seat of Government, and it would be unusual to take action on such a matter without consulting the Secretary of - State, in whose department are deposited whatever evi dence there may be to justify such a pro ceedure. 7b — 7 , 12, - 42. ifi e 0 - 4 /+.l 71 I 40 The trial of John H. Surriitt was resumed this morning in the Criminal Court, Judge Fisher presiding, and Mr. Carrington re newed his remarks. It is expected the commissioners under the late act of Congress to treat with hostile tribes of Indians, will Cassemble at St. Louis on the 6th of August for organization and the arrangement of the programme of proceedings. Those who are LIP NV in the Atlantic States will start for the point of rendezvous at once. General Sherman is now at Madison, Wis. ; General Terry at St..E'aul, and Gen. Harney is already at St. Louis. No diffi culty is apprehended in respect to the ter ritory proposed to be appropriated as a permanent home for the Indians. That portion of it comprising the North western section of Texas, is cut off from the residue of the State by what is called the Staked Plains, a sandy waste, and the con sent of the State, if that indeed, in these times should be deemed necessary, can be procured at a comparative trifle. It is estimated the whole expense of the proposed plan of ending forever our Indian difficulties will not exceed the cost of car rying on the present quasi war for a single year. WAsurscyros, July 30.—The latest intel- t ligeuce from Mexico announces that Lopez was arrested at Oaxaca anti will be exe cuted. The authority for General Sheridan's re moval will probably be issued to-morrow.
