' So much do we sympathize.with the Radicals in their Perplexity over . Old Thai's late spescli . favor of paying the Five-TReffy Sends In GreenbaCks that we have concluded to publish an extract from a debate in Congress in June of 1865. Mr. Stevens then defined his views as follows : Mr. Spalding—l desire to ask the gentle man (Mr. Stevens) if, in his judgment, the principal of the F 600,000,000 of five-twenty bonds is payable in gold? Mr. Stevens—lt is just as clear as any is clear that the interest is payable in gold, but the principal in lawful money. Mr. Spaking—l ask the gentleman ir be knows whether that is the opinion of the bead of the Treasury . Department? Mr. Stevens—Well, sir, I have not con sulted him. I knoiethat a great many legal gentlemen of distinction agree ulthrne in, the opinion I have orpressed. I suppose I should bow to the opinion of the Secretary of the Treasury on the subject if I bad It, and It was right, but I have it not. Mr. Pruyn—l would like, with the per mission of the gentleman from Pennsylva nia, to ask the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Spalding,) whether be hue any information If the Secretary of the Treasury has decided that the principal of the Ilve-twenty bonds was payable in gold? Mr. Spalding—lf I may be permitted to reply to the gentleman from New York, I will say that I have this morning learned Prom the Secretary of he Treasury that, in his opinion, the principal of the live-twenty bonds is payable in gold. Mr. Stevens—Then, sir, his opinion is en tirely different from the law. These bonds are made payable in money by the express terms of the law, and if legal tender notes are money, then the bonds are payable in that. But, sir, If both principal and interest are payable in gold, then the difficulties in which the Government is becoming in volved are all this more aggravated. Mr. Wilson—Was not the statement Just now made by the gentleman from :Penn sylvania based upon tile payment of these live • twenties in gold? Mr. Stevens—Up on the payment of the interest In gold. Mete is no doubt that the interest is payable in gold, Mr. Wilson—l speule of the principal. I understood the gentleman to say that there were now about eight hundred million dol- Inrs of the public debt payable In gold. Mr. Stevens—No, sir; the Interest is pay able in gold. I say that no man who is a lawyer—and I could not say the Secretary of the Treasury is not a lawyer—who will care fully read the law can possibly come to any other conclusion than that the principal of these flue twenty bonds is payable in cur rency. Tho law says expressly that the interest Is payable In coin and that the principal Is payable in money. The differ ence in the terms employed is us distinct and definite us If it had boon expressed In so many words, that one is payable in coin and the other In paper currency. The Tribune on Ohl Thad The New York Tribune is very severe on Old Thud for his speech in Congress favoring the payment of the debt in greenbacks, and calls him the greatest swindler that the world has ever known for declaring that the poor man who is paid his wages in paper money, should not be taxed to pay gold to the rich man for his bonds. Greeley shows the old man the door of the Republican party and unceremoniously orders him out, bidding him to "stay not on the order of his going, butgo at once." The Re publican party Is reaping the reward of its dishonesty In adopting a financial plank in its Chicago platform, which was purposely_ constructed to have two faces on the greenback question; con sequently the party is divided Into two factions, each of which claims to be the Simon Pure Republican article, and reads the other outside of the pale of the organization. The " bond " party call the greenback advocates thieves, scoun drels and swindlers, while—l/fie latter retort by calling their opponents a " bloated aristocracy " which seeks to rob the poor man of his hard-earned wages. A happy family, trul ! Her e 4, what the Tribune says: That those who hated the War and de plore Its Issue should seek ku swin Ile those who lout the money winch insure its sue coos, is deplorable., but not unman tl. That • Mr. Stevens should be found in their com pany is deptor able and very unnatural. of 511 men, ought to be found on the side of honesty and good faith ; for he drafted and engineered the bills which dragged us into the slough whence he seems determined that we shall never be extricated. If he should succeed in his present effort, no swindler•that the world has known ever perpetrated a fraud so gigantic as that he meditates. Mr. Stevens is a very old man, and for gets many things. But this will not excuse his defiance of his own recorded utterances. In commending to the House and the coun try the Legal Tender act, Mr. Stevenssaid "A dollar in a tniser's safe, unproduc tive, is a sore disturbance. Where could they invest it 7 In United States loans of six per Md.—redeemable. IN GOLD in 20 years—the best and most valuable perms• neat investment that could be desired." We might quote more to the same effect; but need we? Here are Mr. Stevens' own words, showing unmistakably that be understood the contract just es we did and do. He reported anti urged that the Green backs should be made fundable in the Five- Twenties ; and these Five-Twenties, he as serted; were "redeemable in gold in twenty years." That is all that need be said. We quote Stevens to prove Stevens a fit ally for the Pendletons, Bosses, and • Blairs, whom he threatens to join, unless the Re publican party can be made the accomplice of the gigantic crime he meditates. That, we can assure him, will never be. If he wishes to swindle efficiently, let him join the party to which swindling is natural— that which will gratify by repudiation its partisan malignity es Nvell us its Innate rascality. Mr. Russ courteously opens the doors of the Democratic church for his re ception.. He says he will enter if the Re publicans will not help him defraud the National creditors. That, we tell him, they will never do. Let him, therefore, " stay not on the order of hie going, But go at once." General Hancock. It was announced and well under stood in New York that General Han cock would not consent to be nomi nated for Vice President. The follow ing letter was written to General Steed man, and ali the friends of the gallant soldier who was so strongly supported for the Presidency will read it with pleasure : WASHINOTON, D.

THE Examiner thinks that Old Thad has not got quite out of the Republican party. To be sure he is all wrong on the financial question, but the people should continue the old man as their representative for the good he hue done, although he ,will not carry out their views. It places a very low estimate upon the Republican party in the coon• ty, but probably an entirely correct one, in supposing that they will want a man who radically differs from them in opin ion to continue to represent them in Congress. HortAcE GREE LY says of Thaddeus Stevens: s. No swindler that the world has known ever perpetrated a fraud so gigantic as that ho meditates." As a Republican opinion of the hon esty of the leader of the Republican party that will do. Old Thad retorts by calling the 'Tribune a "halt secession" paper, and by declaring that a majority -41 f the journals of that party are "in the ,', ay of the, bondholders."

TheSpilghtly little city of Utica is just now putttng on some 'airs and flattering herself not a little at furnishing ti candidate for the Presidency of these great United States. Such an impetus Was never. efore given to a place that has struggled so faith fully and arduously for upwards of - half a century for an existence. Already two new lines of railroad are in progress, intended to accommodate the great rush of people anticipated to see the meat Democratic President. One, the Utica, Clinton, and Ilinghampton, is already in operation for fifteen or twenty miles. The other, running to intersect the Susquehanna road at or near Colliersville,-18 in rapid progress, and in operation about twenty-five miles. Then, too, they have just opened a new, first-class hotel, the Butterfield House, while the time-honored Bagg's is undergoing a re juvenation that causes its old patrons to stare with wonder and amazement. But after all Utica has no occasion for making such a fuss over Horatio Seymour's nomination. If any locality is to be cred ited with honor on this score, Deerfield is entitled to it all. Can New York justly claim credit for Henry Ward Beecher? Or can Brooklyn with justice call Fernando Wood or Isaiah Rytiders her son? Prox imity to greatness may be all very nice, but it must be conceded that it is not just the thing atter all. Deerfield is a very pop ulous township in Oneida county, separated from Utica on the south by the Mohawk river. Its inhabitants are mainly indus trious, thrifty farmers, attending strictly to their own business, not given to claim that which is not their own, and so imbued with this honorable and Christian sentiment that they have thus far failed to discern the rude and unprincipled habits of the Uticans. When they do discover it, look out for war on the Mohawk. Deerfield against Utica! Who owns Horatio Seymour? The Deer fielders will get the best of it, or I'm no prophet. They already have nine points of the law—the possession, which gives them a great advantage. There is another view of the matter which gives it more general importance. Horatio Seymouu is just now posessod of a great number of friends, and before the ides of November will have a great many more, all of whom are and will be anxious to see him. Already the number seeking him to profess their love for him is something re markable. Now the Utica people have an nounced that Mr. Seymour resides in their city, and has his headquarters at the But terfield House, all of which is a gross mis representation, intended to mi•load pious pilgrims. lam prepared to stale most ern helically that since the adjournment of the New York Convention Mr. Seymour has been in Utica but once, and then only but part of a day en ronle for his home in Deer field. Therelore let It be widely published that all who would seek Jinn must take tickets for Deerfield. "The Governor," as the Democratic nom inee is familiarly known by all his friends and neighbors—and that includes pretty much everybody in this region—"the Gov ernor" resides in a plain, unpretending farm cottage, about two miles north of,and overlooking the city of Utica. Something in the outward appearance of the house, though not exacly in the architecture, something in the pastorial air that sur rounds it, something in the approach to it, and'" the view from the verandah. that stretches along its trout—something there is in all these features of the Governor's inane that, while net affording particular points of resemblance, inevitably call to one's mind Mount Vernon. A snug little farm of about three hundred and fifty acres surrounding the rural retreat has been the property of Mr. Seymour and his ancestors for a half a century. The house In welch the proprietor now resides was built for a tenant of the farm, and when, a few yours ago, Mr. Seymour grew weary of law and sought privacy and retirement, a few alterations and repairs rendered the place amply imposing and sufficiently accommodating for his own wants and those of his family. A r 11( grove of ancient trees surrounds the house, af fording an inviting shade, while walks and drives aro abundant without ma terially encroaching upon the usefulness of the soil. The house is furnished in keeping with Its own outward appearance, its sur roundings, end the well-known tastes and character of its occupants. An air of re lined comfort pervades the whole, Prom the verandah a view is obtained well worth a long journey to enjoy. Down the green slope and across the rich meadows of the Mohawk valley, all covered at this time with tolling farmers hastening to secure the overabundant crop of hay, taking in the entire city of Utica and ell its surround ings, stretching fur away up or down the Mohawk, the view Is finally lost in the blue distance far up the picturesque Chenango valley, the opening to which is directly op posite. At the limo of my visit, this very anxi ous aspirant for Presidential honors was engaged In superintending his laborers in securing the hay crop. I apologized for the Inopportuneness of my call, and remarked that I had supposed him to be n country gentleman of leisure. lie simply smiled, told the men not to cut any more grass, but haul in what they had down, and Invited me into the house. I made some essay at my business, but ho insisted on my telling hint the news. Like all regular journalists, I protested that I knew nothing later than appeared iu the Utica morning papers. " Well, those are the only papers 1 get here," ho replied, " and those don't reach me till evening." I told him all the news I could remember, and remarked on the enthusi asm with which his nomination had been received. To this he replied that he didn't see how people could got up enthusiasm in such hot weather as this. He thought they had betterpostponepolitice until it gotcooler. Talking of the heat, I suggested that the heated term commenced with the meeting 01 the Convention. "Yes " he said, "and but for that I wouldn't have been In this unfortunate predicament. I went to the Convention on purpose to prevent my be ing the candidate. I fought steadily against it until the midnight before I was nomina ted, and again, fifteen minutes before my name was presented, I protested most em phatically against its use. When they did present it, theexcitement and the heat rued till together completely upset me. Had 1 been as cool as now, I should have de clined. I had planned out a little trip abroad for myself; but this affair has changed till my programme and unsettled all my plans of life. I didn't want the of fice. I wanted Chase nominated." "Could Mr. Chase have been nomina • led?" I asked. " I thought BO then," he replied, " but I have since learned to my satisfaction that had my name not been sprung as it was, Mr. Hendricks would have beau nominated In two or three more ballots." After HOMO more general conversation, in which I didn't secure n promise of that post office, because I did not nsk for it, I took my leave. Mounts. Eloquent Tribute to the Democratic Party. Major Thomas Ewing, of Kansas, in his speech at the Cooper Institute, New York, before the Soldiers' and Sailors' National Convention, sold: The Repub:ican party represents no prin ciple for which we fought. We thought not of negro suffrage, [applause and cries of "No, no,"] or white disfranchisement, or forcing on the Southern States unequal fel lowship in the Union, [" Never, never,"] of changing cur beneficlunt form of govern• merit, ["Never, never."] Out of the five hundred thousand Union • Soldiers, Demo trots and Republicans, who sleeps on fields washed by the waters of the Atlantic and the Gulf, not one laid down his life for any such end. Of the fifteen hundred thousand of their surviving comrades, not ono will say he would have risked his life for either of these objectei And these measures of the Republican party are not only the ob feae of the war, but are so prosecuted Its to defeat those objects and to inflict on the na tion evils as great as those the war was waged to prevent, [Shouts, "that's so."] The Democratic party is now the only party true to the Constitution and the Union (Applause.) If we would accomplish the purposes of our service and sucritice, it' WO would save the Union and the Stales, their liberties and laws, we must unite with the Democracy. [Long continued applause.] In the path in which the Democratic party tread we see the footprints of Washington, Jefferson, Adams, and all the heroes of the Revolution ,• of Webster, Jackson, Clay, Wright, and all the giants of the generation Just gone before us;_ and whlielt keeps that line of march, and bears the flag of the Constitution entitl) Union, we can follow it with pride and with unfulteringtrust.

My opinion upon all the questions which discriminate the great contending parties have been freely expressed on all suitable occasions, and I. do not deem it necessary at this time to reiterate them. The issues upon which the contest turns are clear and cannot be obscured or dis torted by the sophistries of our adversaries. They all resolve themaelyes into the old and ever recurring struggle - Of a"few men to absorb the political power of the nation. This effort under every , conCeivable name and disguise has always characterized the opponents of the Democratic party, but at no time has the attempt assumed a phase so open and daring as in this contest. The adversaries of free and constitutional Government, in defiance of the express language of the Constitution, have erected a military despotism in ten of the States of the Union, have taken from the President the power vested in him by the supreme law, and havedeprived the Su preme Court of its jurisdiction. The right of trial by jury, and the great writ of right, the ,abeaa corpus—shields of safety for every citizen, which have descended to us from the earliest traditions of our aucestors, and which our Revolutionary fathers sought to secure to their posterity forever in the fundamental charter of our liberties—have been ruthlessly trampled under foot by the fragment of a Congress; whole States and communities of people of our race have been attuinted, convicted, condemned, and de prived of their lights as citizens, without presentment or trial or witnesses, but by Congressional enactment of cx post facto laws, and In defiance of the con stitutional prohibition, denying oven to a full and loyal Congress the authority to pass any bill of attainder or cx post facto law. The same usurping authority has substitu ted as electors in place of the men of our own race, thus Illegally attaluted and dis franchised, a host of Ignorant negroes who are supported in 'ldleness with the public money, and are combined together to strip the white race of their birthright through the management of Freedmen's bureaux and emissaries of conspirators in other Stales. And to complete the oppression, the military power 01 the nation has been placed at their disposal In order to make this barbarism Supreme. The military leader, under whose prestige this usurping Congrois has taken refuge—since the con demnation of their schemes—by the free people of the North, in the elections of the last year, and whom they have selected as their candidate, to shield themselves from the result of their own wickedness and crone, has announced his acceptance of the nomination, and his willingness to main tain their usurpations over eight millions of white people at the South, fixed to the earth with his bayonets. Ile exclaims, " Let us have peace !" " Peace reigns lu Warsaw," was the announcement which heralded the doom of the liberties of a na tion. "The empire Is peace," exclaimed Bonaparte when freedom and its defend ers expired under the sharp edge of his sword. The peace to which Grant Invites us Is the peace of despotism and death.— ' Those who seek to restore the Constitu tion by executing the will of the people condemning the reconstruction acts, al• ready pronounced in the elections of last year (and which will, I um convinced, be still more emphatically expressed by the election of the Democratic candidate as President of the United States) aro de nounced as revolutionists by the partisans of this vindictive Congress. Negro suffrage (which the popular vote of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Connecticut, and other States has con demned as expressly against the letter of the Constitution) must stand, because their Senators and Representatives have willed it. It the people shall again condemn these atrocious measures by the elec tiou of the Democratic candidate for President, they must not be disturbed! Although decided to be unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, and although the Pres ident is sworn to maintain and support the Constitution, the will of a fraction of a Con gress, reinforced with its partisan emissa ries sent to the South, and supported there by the soldiery, must stand against the will of the people and the decisions of the Supreme Court and the solemn oath of the President to maintain and support the Constitution! It is revolutionary to execute the will of the people! It is revo lutionary to execute the judgment of the Supreme Coum t It Is revolutionary in the President to keep Inviolate his oath to sus tain the Constitution! This false construc tion of the vital principle of our Govern ment is the last resort of those who would have their arbitrary reconstruction sway and supersede our time honored institu• lions. The nation will say that the Consti tution must be restored end the will of the people again prevail. The appeal to the peaceful ballot to attain this end is net war —is not revolution. They make war and revolution who attempt to arrest this quiet mode of putting aside military despotism and the usurpations of a fragment of Con • cress asserting absolute power over that be nign system of regulated liberty left us by our fathers. This must be allowed to take its coarse. THIS IS THE ONLY ROAD TO PEACE. IT WILL COME WITH THE ELECTION OF THE DEMOCRATIC CAN DIDATE, AND NOT WITH THE I ELECTION OF THAT MAILED WAR RIOR WHOSE BAYONETS ARE NOW AT THE THROATS OF EIGHT MIL LIONS OF PEOPLE IN THE SOUTH, I TO COMPEL THEM TO SUPPORT HIM AS A CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESI DENCY, AND TO SUBMIT TO THE DOMINATION OF AN ALIEN RACE OF SEMI-BARBAROUS MEN.

Leyster, with all their goods, were swept away. The Avallon marl and Iron works, near the Relay House, wore destroyed. Several days must elapse before an accurate estimate of the losses can be made. The loss of life In Baltimore city is not positively known to exceed four—only that number of bodies being yet found—but there is no doubt some were swept into the river. ELLICOTT CITY, July 2.5, 1868.—The de struction caused by the flood yesterday to this town Is far greateit than it has been on any previous occasion—greater than was represented in the accounts drat published, end even greater than the residents them selves believed until the light of to-day gave them an opportunity to take a fuller account of the losses. About half-past nine o'clock yesterday morning the alarm was given that the Pa tapsco river was rapidly rising. By ten o'clock the river had swollen to such an extent as to create general alarm to those persons who were absent from their homes, who hastened thither to save what they could of their property, and everywhere people who dwelt close to the banks of the river were seen making preparations to guard against the impending inundation. Never before had the flood descended so rapidly or risen to so great a height at this place. The river rose forty feet above its ordinary level, and it had reached nearly ton feet before a drop of rain fell In this neigh borhood. Skirting along the rivers back on the Baltimore and Wheeling turnpike, stood a row of large stone houses. The occupants were frequently warned of the dangerous appearance of the freshet, but, trusting to their former experience, they chose to re main yet a little longer, thinking there would be time to escape when the worst came. Within a few minutes the flood rose so rapidly that all communication was cut off and the current rushed so swiftly that it was found impossible to render them any aid. At this time the water had only reached above the lower story of the houses and no danger was apprehended if the occupants could reach the root. This they at once! proceeded to do, but the water still rose higher and higher and sped on its frightful ' course with immense velocity, and to add to the terrors of the hour huge masses of drift rubbish came rushing upon the , doomed awellings. The family of Dr. T. B. Owings, consist ing of Mrs. Owings, six children and three servants, had gathered in the third story of their dwelling when the house, which was frame, was lifted from its foundations 'and carried across the street against a stone' house occupied by a Mr. Fountain. Mrs. Owings and her children clambered upon the roof of Fountain's house, where they thought they would be sate. A few mo ments after this Dr. Owings, who had re turned from visiting a patient, arrived at the river bank, and was just in time to be hold the crumbling away of the house and the death of his wife and children, who sunk amid the wreck, holding their hands towards him vainly imploring his help. The side wall of Mr. Partridge's house felt and exposed to the spectators about fifteen persons, who had sought refuge there, all standing in a group. This scene was beheld fora moment or two, when the house fell with a crash Into the boiling surge, carrying with it every soul. Every effort was made by the citizens to rescue those who were in peril, and quite a number were saved; but owing to the speedy work made by the flood in Its fear ful velocity, many perished within a dozen yards of the shore. The whole of the lower part of the town was flooded, and to-day presents a deplor able spectacle—goods washed out of stores into the streets, and furnithre out of houses, all lying in tangled heaps, with here and there trees, logs, stones and the debris of houses and bridges. The principal hotel, the Patapsco House, is filled to overflowing with the houseless citizens who escaped the I flood. Every mill on the river is destroyed, end every bridge is washed away. The track of the Baltintot e and Ohio Rail road has sunk In several places. Parties of citizens have been engaged all day along the river in dragging for the bodies of victims, and thus far but eight I have been recovered. Thirty-seven per- I eons are known to have been drowned, end ' six others are missing. The names of those lost aro as follows: Mrs, T. 13, Owings, six children and three servants. William Patterson, his wife and five children. William Partridge, his wife and niece. Mrs. Furrow and two nieces, Mr. Mat, McCauley, cloth inspector at Granite Mill. John Reese and Carrie Reese, his daughter. Mr. Murphy wife and child. The body of Mr, Murphy still lies below the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad bridge, im bedded among the iron rods of the bridge. Mr. Josppli Steel. Mr. Fountain, wife and deughthr, and Mr. Snyder. Those bodies which were recovered wore found to be Mrs. Patterson, Mr. Fountain, Mr. Reese, one child not yet identified, one child of Mrs. Patterson, Mr. Gabriel and John Murphy. Forty three houses and mills have been destroyed in the town and between it and the Relay House ; one old stone house, which was left unharmed by the flood while all those around it were carried away, wee built in the year 1702. The old Inhabi tants say that the water rose yesterday fif teen feet higher than it ever reached before. The loss in Elicott City is estimated at over a million dollars. BALTImoItE, July 27.—Thousands of per sons are still at work repairing damages and c' caring away debris caused by the re cent flood. The Baltimore and Ohio Rail road is seriously damaged all the way to Frederick, and the cars will not be able to run there for several days. A train was submerged near Ellicott City, and the laas seugers were obliged to escape to the bills. No trains on the Northern Central are run ning yet this side of Cockeysville. Benjamin Deford, owner of the granite factory, loses $280,000, the same as cash paid out. Mr. Carroll, owner of the Patapsco Mills, loses $OO,OOO, and Gambrill 1380,000. Private subscriptions are now being made for the sufferers here. It is raining again to-day. Four more bodies, two men and a woman and child, were recovered today at the Long Bridge. TheLehlgh ETEihet (From the Allentown News of yesterday ,1 The rain which fell during Friday night caused a tremendous rise in the streams throughout the Lehigh Valley. Between the hours of two and three o'clock on Bat. urday morning the rise commenced, and in less time than it takes to, pen this tern, boats and rafts were broken from their, moorings, sheds and debris of all kinds came floating' own the river. The water in the Lehigh river rose some seven or eight feet; the meadows along the Jordan creek we: e covered with water several feet in depth; back water from these streams caused the water in the Little Lehigh river to flood the banks of that stream as far up as the Water Company's dam.

They Bald they would do their part towards having a rail. ' rood to the Pacific 113 1870, and they are go ing to do it In 18130. They have 700 miles done now, and they expect to have NO done this year. It has 73 locomotives and over 900 cars in constant use, and nearly twice as many more are ordered, It laid 60,000 tons of rails before 1887, and about 30,000 tons more will be required In 1868. 20,000 mon aro at work, west of the highest point of the Rocky Mountains, and Brigham Young has all the male Mormons that can be spared from their domestic duties dig ging a way eastward towards Gentile civil ization. 'rho Central Pacific Company are also actively engaged, and there is now lit tle doubt that the two roads will meet in 1800, and that the traveler may see tho sun rise on Monday morning over Boston Har bor and not through the Golden Gate of the Patina on Saturday night. If the Ghvarnment had not loaned Its credit, this work would never have been dotio; no private capitalists would have In vested over a hundred million dollars in any such enterprise. But the Government gave the Company the right to issue First Mortgage Bonds upon the road, and took a second mortgage for its own security, bur the completion of the work will more than double the value of all the national domain in its vicinity, and make the First Mort ' gage Bonds one of the safest and most profitable investments In the country. The earnings from the way traffio more than pay the Interest, which, at six per cent. In gold, is between eight and nine per cent. In currency. llnnainiroS Throe of the Adams Express Robbers In Indiana CINCINNATI, July 21,—The lynching of the Adams Express robbers near Seymour last night was a premeditated affair, and was occasioned by the determination of the citizens of Jackson and the adjoining coun ties to rid themselves of as desperate ailing of robbers and murderers as has ever been known. A family named Reno, living at Rockford, two mites from Seymour, are the leaders of this gang, whose operations have extended all over the West. The Adams Express has repeatedly been robbed by these men, who would get on board the trains and overpower the messengers, or take pos session of the engine and express car, and run them off from the train, and then leave attea robbing the safes. A. robbery of this kind occurred lately on the Hamilton and Dayton Railroad near this city, whereby the American Express Company was rob bed of a large amount, the Reno family be ing the leaders or instigators in .the affair. They are also the party who led the raid in lowa last spring, when so many of the county safes were robbed. On the 22d of May last the Adams Ex press Company's car was robbed, eighteen miles from Seymour, of $06,000, in which the Renos and their friends were the prin cipal actors, some of whom are now in Canada to avoid capture, and others are under arrest. On the 16th inst. Adams' Express was again attacked about twelve miles west of Seymour, but the armed guards of the company repulsed the robbers. Two of them have since been captured, and for the remainder a large reward has been offered. Val. Elliott was one of the gang, and was captured on the night of the at- I tempted robbery. Charles Roseberry, a resident of Seymour, and a pupil of Reno, was afterward arreett&hy the:Citizens of geimour. Fred. Clifton was also &nested. -They all admitted their bOneeetion, with 'the a ff air. For safekeeping they weretaken' tft• Cincinnati, when .warranta'Werei pro cared, and they were put on the train of the Ohio and Mississippi ,Mailrus4 last ,night, bound for Browntown, the county seat of Jackson county. When about two miles west of Seymour the train was stopped and ibe men taken out and hung, as already - eated.4 Their bodies • were found •bt -nn ',early hour this morning, hanging to the 'limbs of trees in the vicinity.

DISTINOUISIIED VISITOREI.—The lately dained Catholic Bishop of the new Dio cese of Harrisburg, Dr. J. F. Shanahan, paid a visit to this city last Sunday, in com pany with Bishop Wood, of Philadelphia, and our fellow townsmen Rev. A. J. Mc- Conomy. Ho officiated at the early service (7 o'clock), at the German Catholic Church where he was an unexpected visitor; and it was only when the early bells pealed forth in Joyful tones that his' arrival was first intimated. The Germans, it is well known, frequent ly show their attachment to their pastors, and particular to those who fill the position of Bishop. Consequently as soon as the service was over nearly the entire congre gation lined the side _walks uncovered, while the venerable Bishop passed, giving them his ecclesiastical blessing. During the J3ishop's stay in this city be was the guek of our old friend Peter McConomy. SINOULAR.-It is stated that the appear ance of the Susquehanna river previous to the recent rains, created quite an excite ment along Its banks. For some two weeks the river was covered with a substance or matter of a very dark green color, running in large fields over the river for miles down. The oldest Inhabitants could not account for the peculiar phenomenon, nor did they ever recollect seeing the river present such an appearance before• Some accounted for It in the fact that the Susquehanna was never so low as at that time, and that the color arose from the stagnation of the water. Others thought it was coal oil, as It had the appearance of oil thrown on water giving it a smooth surface. It is stated to have been very fatal to fish, great numbers of dead fish having been floated by the current down to tide water, and it is also reported to have proven fatal to animals who drank of it. FIRE.—On yesterday (Sunday) about 12 o'clock, M., a fire broke out at the build ing known as "Bletzs' Mill," situated on Front St., Columbia, The proximity to the Gas House and Gasometer, and the fact that a large body of lumber was stored in the mill caused a great excitement, as fears were entertained that an explosion of the gas holder might be occasioned by the heat of the fire. Both fire companies of the Borough were on hand and it is ow ing to their united efforts that the saving of much life and property is due. Had they been a little less prompt the gaso meter must have exploded and its destruc tion would shave comprised that of the whole neighborhood. No other building was burned,' though the wood work of the gas house nearest.the fire was destroyed. The mill destroyed was owned by Mr. F. S. Bletz, of this place, whose loss is in the neighborhood of $12,000, but is partly:insur ed. Various rumors are afloat regarding the origion of the fire, but the supposition is it was the work of boys who wore in the mill and that it was an accident. Mr. Blets was insured for $4600. $2OOO in the Columbia Insurance Company, of this place, and $2OOO in the Lycoming Mutual of Money. Messrs, Hogendoebler and Gil bert, carpenters, employed in the mill, lost all their tools, amounting to $l5O each.— Columbia Herald.
