Franklin and Harsball ColleKP< DY THE PRESIDENT OP THE INSTITUTION. ARTICLE I, The College Board of Trustees, at its late meeting lti Lancaster, passed the following resolution, namely: . That the Rev. Dr. J. W. Nevin be solicited to prepare for the public press in ww place a series of articles, setting forth the claims of Franklin and Marshall College on the active support of the citizens of Lancaster City and County. I write now in compliance with this re quest ; and wish to have it understood that what I have to say is in the name of the Board, and not simply in my own name. The College comes before us under a double chai acter. It is an ecclesiastical In* terest in the first place, and then in the second place it is a local and sectional in terest. it belongs to the German Reformed Church in one view ; but in another view, It belongs no less essentially to Lancaster city and to Lancaster county. Of its church relations I am not called upon here to speak, except only so far as these may have some bearing on the other side of its character, namely its local sig nificance and its claims on the favor of the community in the midst of which it stands. In this view it should be felt as a Btrong argument in favor of the College, that it is a German interest. Lancaster is originally and constitutionally, to a large extent, of German life and blood ; and it is not to be imagined that any change of language is going to change its nature in this respect, so as to make it of one order, for example, with the simple English life of Chester county or the Stateof New Jersey. Nosuch change is to be desired. The hope of our grand old county, its social, moral and po litical greatness in time to come, depend largely on the working up of the material of-its native home life into a form answer able to its own conditions and needs. How ever we muy honor foreign culture in its proper place, in the latitude which of right oolongs to it (that of New England for in stance), and however ready we should be also to welcome its co operation and help, when It comes to us In the way of proper adaptation to our wants, wo owe it to our solves, nevertheless, not to forget that there cun bo for us no true and strong develop ment of character in the end that sliall not 1)0 tho outgrowth of resources originally pooullur to ourselves, This Is a greul trull), which it is only to bo wished our whole Keystone Slain could ho brought properly Jo fay to heart 5 while in t lie case now before us, U deserves certainly the very special consideration of Lancaster county. Thu College here planted 111 its bosom by lho Gorman Unformed Church, Is emphatically a'Clerinan College, so far as ll can be llmt in general English form. It embraces ail necessary provision for the study of tho German language and must continue to do so us long as It continues to exist undor Its present character. This study moreover is not optional ; it is part of tho regular college course, ns'inueh sons Grouk or Latin, Algebra or Natural Phi losophy., ilut tills is iiht all. Tills might be, and yet amount to nothing. Tho Gur man character of Franklin and Marshall College holds still moru in its ruling genius and spirit. That is the only way at last, in which justice cuu lie done to the true Gor man life of tins country, by securing to it its proper plane in liie constitution of our general American mind. This again does not mean, of course, 1 Inti wo are lo keep up mechanically, here in Pennsylvania and Lancaster county, tho very same views and feelings that now prevail in Germany Itself, for that would be for us also now a more or less foreign mode of ex hloneo, Put ll does moan that wo keep up the sense of a living union and communication wlili the hintori <oiil life ol Germany, so iih to have a German - American, and uni simply a Seotch-Arnorl •enuor mi Irish American character. In tills souse the spirit of Franklin and Marshall •College lias boon distinctly Gertnuu from .the beginning, ami no institution lias done more, probably, to uphold and promote dlHtinctively German modes of study ami thought in tilt- land. Hero then (lie ecclesiaHlical character of the College, the fad that It hLands under thu cure of the Germ in Reformed Church, iOOiiIQM in as what should be felt to be a powerful local consideration In its favor; PBoausu it carries with it In fact a guaranty /)f its lasting consecration lo the cause of German learning and tho servi-’O of AugioGurmun mind. Oi however littlo account this might be for it iu Priucitonor New Haven, it is something which should appeal at once with great force in its Javor to tiio German heart of Lancaster county, Lancaster is thu proper homo for such a •College. There is a Jitness of tilings, undor this view, iu its location. Why then should there not bo a general feeling among us in its favor? Why not a dotoiinitiation to make it all that the honor of tho German name requires, tho pride of Lancaster City and the boast of Lancaster county ! But the German Reformed Church, it may bo Raid, is a particular religious de nomination; uud the College, as belonging to it. cannot bo looked upon as properly a iocul interest; or at least this church teln (ion must necessarily detract .some from ,lho weight of its claims .m public favor out side of itu own Ki-riiu un bounds. Tlioro is something ;t litilo plausible in this objec tion, but I will try lo show in my next ar ticle that U is only plausible, ami that tho denominational character of the College /such as it is) forms really uo bar whatever to its gonornl local importance, since Us denomination a I Is m is o la sort which makes Jt tho easiest thing in I he world for the posi tive Christianity of oilier religious bodies, fo full In with It without discord or offence. AIITII'I.M 11 Thu (‘nili-ge Is a donomluullnnul interest, fio.lt lu wllh our I'olieges generally In this Wtute. They are under I lie can* directly of liurllcultu' religious bodies. Dickinson Col ego, ut'CurllMie, is In the iiunds of the Meth odists; Pennsylvania College, at Gettys burg, belongs lo ilm Lutherans; ami wo huvo u new Institution now, Muhlenberg College, starling favorably under Iho aus pices nf the saim* body at Allentown. La fayette College, at EaMton, belongs lo the Presbyterians. In the same way Franklin nnd Marshall College is under (lie cure of the Eastern .Synod oftheGunmiu Reformed Church. Thin U the I'MlubllHluM eilunilionnl policy of our Ciminionwoitltli. Tlio Staio bun found It expedient mil to take the college system into it* own hamls, hut to leave il with llu* people at large ; allowing cacti religious (lenoinlnnlion, if It wee proper, to have Its separate institution, it 1h easy to dud fault with this arrangement; anil it is especially to he rogretted, wbon It Is made to encourage the Idea that our Colleges are not a public, political Interest, full as much uh our Common Schools, umti that the Slate is not hound to care lor thorn, or to lonic after them in any way. Let in hope that the time for such Hlc.i-tiioLTlcny treatment (which Ims already lusted too long) is fast •coming to an end, and that the great State of lVnnsylvanla will yet do something worthy of itself in the cuuso of higher edit cation, lhit for the present, we are to lake tilings as we liml them ; and it becomes us at Hie same time to consider what ot good there may be In them, so as to turn it properly to account. In such view, it is easy to sec n bonctitin LhuHOdenominational colleges They secure to the cause of higher education a directly Christian character. Thut is much. The State of itself could not doit. It needs for the purpose the c<> operation of the Church. Now no one of our sects, it is true, cun be considered the Church in its full form. Each of them, in its separation from the rest, is but an approach to this, an apology for the true idea of the Church. Hut still ns such au apalogy, uuy sort of church is something much better hero than the open formal ab sence of all church character would be for any of our institutions. It amounts at least to a confession in every case that all educa tion ought to be Christian; while it is a standing witness at the same time, to the great trull), that there can be no real and positive Christianity without the Christian Church. Denominational colleges, in this way, are better-thau more political colleges —better than colleges which have no church character at all, but all'ect rather to stand in a sphere above and beyond this, taking thought ior such Christianity as they have in some altogether different way. Better far that our higher education should be vitalized by the presence of some positive Christian faith in any form (Lutheran, Episcopalian, Presbyterian, Methodist or otherwise), than that it should be given over to the tender mercies of a godless indiffer entism making no uccjuut of any Christian creed whatever. It is plain, moreover, that as the educa tional policy of our State now stands, there is no other way in which colleges can be rnpde to prosper among us, except this of having them under the care of particular religious denominations. The voluntary principle,ou which we are forced to rely.cau never in any other way lie brought to bear » so widely or strongly in favor of particular institutions. No simply local or territorial centre can of Itself here carry with it such organizing force us is found to go along with thts life of a religious sect Neither Carlisle, nor Gettysburg, nor Easton, nor Canouaburg, with all their surrounding ter ritories, would be able to have a respecta ble college, if it depended simply on what they are themselves by position or home power. They owe their colleges, and what ever advantage they have from them, to the denominational Cnrisliau bodies which have planted aud now uphold these institu tions in their midst. The deuomiDationui character of a college, then, does not detract in the least from its local insignificance, irom its claims on the favor and support of the community in the midst of which it stauds. Ou the contrary, it Bbould be felt to heighten these cluims ; since in no other form, certainly, could the interest as local be made to carry with it anything like the same amount of worth and weight. Bo in the case before ns. Franklin and Marshall College is not, because it belongs to the German Reformed Church, one whit the less for that reason a great local inter est belonging to Lancaster city and couuty. This in truth only intensities Us signifl . ounce for both. For what hope could we have of building up a respec'able college among us, were it not for the denomina tlonal interest thus thrown in our way ? Here is a wholo Church offering itself to oqr aid and service, iu the work of getting pp qn institution of learning that shall be tuo glory of tho place in cqming years,— Does thqt belittle the object, or do away in any sort with its local importance ? Why it is the very thing which, beyond all else, ipakes it important for our whole commu nity in the highest degree. If Luucaster is to have a thriving college at all it must be under the care of some re ligious denomination. This being so, it may be questioned If any relation of this sort oould well bo In a form Idas hampering (in the bad sectarian sense) than we have THE LANCASTER WEEKLY HSTTELLIGrEUSTCER, WEDNESDAY, JULY 14, 1869. it in the case of Franklin and Marshal Col lege. The Reformed Church is itself histo rically one of the broadest ecclesiastical titles, taking in properly all confessional Protestantism beyond the other great (Lu theran) Confession; while our German branoh of it, at the same time, owns a deep seated affinity (both in blood and spirit) with Lutheranism itself. Altogether thns as German Reformed, the Church is emi nently free and catholic, and may be said to have as little of the sectarian spirit as is well possible perhaps, under the common leprosy of the sect system which is unhap pily upon us all. This does not mean, how ever, that the Christian teaching of the Coll'ge 1b negative simply, general, and humanitarian. On the contrary, it is strongly positive. But it is so; by laying all stress especially on the fundamental mysteries of the Chris tian faith (viewed more as facts than as doctrines), as we have them set before us In the Apostles Creed ; which is still hap plly (by common profession at least) the common basis of faith for the universal Christian world, both Catholic and Protest ant—no Protestantism, in truth, being of heavenly planting, which gr>'weth not • forth from this wonderlully glorious root. tio much, for my present purpose, on this point now, I may touch it again here after. Two things however, still require note here. The first is, that students be longing to other denominations, if their parents or guardians wish it, are excused from the Sunday Chapel services of the College, and allowed to attend church else where. Secondly, the Board of Trustees, under whose care the College stands, is so constituted that as a rule one third of its members (ten out of thirty) are taken from beyond tbeGerman Reformed Church. This does not,neutralize of course, the denominational status of tne institution; no intelligent friend of educa tion could wish that. But it, shows the general liberal tenor of the organization and management. Tho Eleventh 81-nnnanl Festival of the IS ortheasteru Wiengerfesf Baltimore, July 12.—The grand pro cession of the Eleventh Bi-annual Festival of the Northeastern Sinngerfest Is now moving. The parade left their headquar tors at Concordia Hall ut 9 o'clock and rnurched through the principal streets of ihoolty.

It is further stated that at present no change will be made in the Ministry, but a reorganization of the Cabinet is certain to occur, and that shortly.

[For the Intelligencer. I Bart, July 12,15G9. Messrs. Editors In your issue of the 7th insl. I observed an article copied from tho Oxford Press, stating that the luw passed by the last Legislature prohibiting cuttle, hogs and sheep from running on the roads in Bart, met a great deal of opposi tion, but the correspondent from Bart thinks that the majority of the citizens are in favor of it. I would ask that correspond ent why he went to Oxford to inform the press of the good effects of the law, why he did not contribute this knowledge to some of our Lancaster papers. I will tell you why, because he knew that he was telling a falsehood when he said the majority of the citizens of Barf were in favor of it, besides be is ashamed of it, knowing that it was got up to take the advantage of the poor man with the promise thaLit was not to deprive the poor man from turning his cattle on the road ; and what has been the result? Why nearly all the poor men in the township have been compelled to keep their cows off the roads and pay pasture, and some of the advocates of the law now ask the extrava gant price of three dollars per month for pasturage. Again I consider it an outrage on the citizens of Bart, as they represented that it was to be a general law for Lancas ter county and only to deprive farmers from turning on the roads. I will tell the cor respondent that not one-third of the citi zens are in favor of it, and that it is saying to the poor man what some of those favor ing the law have said; “You must soil your cow if you cannot keep her off' the road.” Pochahontas.

The Managers of the Lancaster County Agricultural Park Association were again induced to offer three separate premiums for competition by the faststock of Lancas ter county, and succeeded on Saturday in bringing out a good sprinkling of them, al though disappointment was felt by the non arrival of some of the promised competi tors. The attendance on Saturday afternoon was not as large as it would be at any other time of the season, when business of such great importance as at the present does not occupy the time of the people of the city and county; Lancaster couuty, too, al though containing some good stock, has never before bad any inducement to rivalry held out to the owners of fast nags to try their best in producing Dexters and Flora Temples ; yet there is no reason why they cannot do it, und now that they have a chance to show out at the Park meetings, their pride in this particular will doubtless be put upon the spur. Although the as semblage was not so numerous as antici pated by some, it was characterized by tbe marked addition of numerous carriages, which were drawn up within tho enclosure und contained quite a number of ladies, who stu.vod to seoout, und appeared to take interest iu all that was worth notice in the programme. Ou the road to tho meeting every body wus troubled with tho fast eomplulnt anti on the course tho sports and sportive were In tho fullness ot their glory—‘•Just as hap py us a big Hunllower.” Tho fellow with tljut plethoric pocket book wus thero too— he that wus seou by the York county irmn. iioollered to bet too—but bis ull. Ho wanted lo bet with a large Jawed man on the winner against tho field, tlud Beecher beon thero will) Bonner wo should not have felt any concern lor the moral responsibility of tbo Purk Directory, because Beecher preaches iu church and not at purks or races, whore ho goes with Bonner, behind Dexter, to en joy himself. But we ware afraid that tho men with tho combination look of liver .complaint and indigestion ; the mon who livo on tho suburbs of virtue in York and tho F.cho In Lancaster might have been thero and sent up u wail for our preserva tion. Ami Reddy Holman would have beon tho cause of ull tho disinterested exhi bition of virtuous coiulomnulion, that York and the Kobo would have poured forth, In their wrath, on the managers of tho Purk Association. If the ’‘combination mou” wero not there they must know that “ Red dy” producud Ills plethoric wallet of throe by two und as bulky as a wafer and o ffu ml lo but fifty (cents) on the winner agulnst the field, hut was unceremoniously put ofi* the course by President iSpuucor, and tho mun in the Grand Hlund was told that he was not ut a race ground and that no butting was permitted on tho Park Courso. This spoilt what might liavo made a moral son nation item. Tho entries fur tho trials of speed on Saturday were— Trotting Horses that have never beaten 3 •minutes.—Best 3 ra 5 't?t harness.— G. H. Bard’s, Illnkletnwn, “Doll”; Capt. G. C. Eckert’s, Lancaster, “Bluo Belle”; U. H. Kuufi’uiun'H, Orville, “Frank”; G. Guy gert’s, Lancaster, “Kate”; Wush. Kroner's, Lltiz, “Old Warwick”; Josh.McCompaoy’a, Lancaster, “Black Jack”; Jacob Coffroth’s, Lancaster, “Billy” nnd M. H. Wenger’s, Lancaster Co., “.Salem”, Frank did not put in appearance and Billy and Suletn were burrad iu conse quence of not having entered within the specified time; but the Managers very lib erally offered them a special premium to try their speed the one against tho other, which was accepted. In the second attotnnt to got off, in the first trial, Black Jack throw a shoe and was drawn out of that trial. At tho word “go” Kate went off with a slight steady lead, followed closo by Belle, Warwick, and Doll, At the first quarter Doll had drawn into the Jead with tbe Bello ringing close on her quarters, but the Doll could not be nursed right iu a trot and broke bad sever al times. At the three-quarters Belle took tho lead in splendid stylo and maintained it. At tho turn on the homo stretch theother three took to ruuning after Bello inn live ly mutiner— it was Doll und Kale nnd Kate and Doll and Warwick in the trial. But no efforts of theirs could have prevented Belle from coming in a splendid winner had'sho not broken up in tryiugjtoldlstanco the rest and as sho could not bo got down agnlu she came galloping in ovor the mnrk and w*ns consequently burred out, the first pluco was Sulned by Kate after a hard struggle with 'oily, 'i’lino 3 minutes. Siroml Trial, Black Jack having boon re-shod, cutuu lo the scratch with the rost. Belle took a slight lend, followed closo by Doll and Black .Lick ; Kale and Warwick so near together, behind, that at llu* first corner they fouled and ono of Warwick's sulky spokes was broken. They kept their positions, Jack crawling alongside of Dolly, like's he wauled to keep her com pany, which gin her pruiouml she showed out hor pretty fool to tho Black. At tho end of tho first Half mile Jack cruelly do sorted Doll and wont for tbo Bello of tho course; Bello beam him coming and put on hor bust gait, determined that ho shouldn't Jill two gals In ono day. At tho last turn on tbo homo stretch, Jack wont for hor in desperation, hut it was no go and tho Bello tripped o’er tho lea three-quur tors a length winner. After Jack had de. sorted Doll, she broke and fell back in com pany with Kuto und tho Old (Earl) War wick, who had neon seeing now bad they could belmve ufter tho loul, and tho three camo in near together—Wurwlck alonojust suving Ills distance. Time 2.50. Hurd Trial.— Jack wont off with n slight lead closely followed by the Bello and War wick, who broke on the scratch. At the first quarter Bello tried to take the conceit out oi Jack uml did pass him, but broke, when Jack again took the lead uml Old Wurwick taking advantage of the Belle’s confusion passed her and look second post. .Jack now began to show what was in him, ami at tho eml of the lli>t half mile had rolled on ton lengths aheud of Wurwick, Belle in the sulks behind, having got some thing of a sun stroke. Jack swept on all tho second half mile quite contented not to distance his cum pan ions, and came In about lift ecu lengths ahead of Belle and Warwick, who were now almost oven. Timo2 58. Fourth Trial.— Bello was now so much out of condition that she was withdrawn. Old Wurwick took the lead and opened the gap to two lengths at the first turn, hut it was evident that Jack held high low and tiie game in his hand, for he soon collard Warwick in an easy manner. At the quar ter he broke, but wus so soon down that be lost nothing, and at tho end of the first half mile was teu lengths ahead. He went swinging on to the three quarters, when he was let out to his own way of going, aud al though he made a slight break once, ho swiftly left old Warwick to think how ho had been running all the lime for nothing and on the home stretch distanced the earl. Time 2 52. This euded the first trotting trial. Tho special premium match between Billy and Balem afforded more amusement than interest, as a trial of extra speed, and it was evident that if these horses had " never beaten three minutes” they were determined not to do it this time. Salem proved an incorrigible breaker, but when he did come down to a trot he could mark protty good time. This trial appeared more like a spirited park drive in which the gen tlemen had agreed not to run away from each other, except wbeu Billy deemed it necessary to step ahead, at the goal, to give the Grey more chance of being seen alouo— behind. This feat (black) Billy did in both heats. Time 3.10 and 3.4. For the second trottiDg trial Mr. Abm. Hiestand’s bay horse Harry, Mr. M. Mac- Gough’s bay horse Frank and Peter Hal demun’s bay horse Prime were entered, but Harry was the only one that showed, Frank being reported with a sore mouth Prime being in too prime a condition to run, from an excess of corn and beans.— This prize consequently proved a Blank. Pacing Trial. —Best 2 in 3 in Harness. Entries■ —Mr. Kauffman’s bay horse Honest John and Mr. Geo, Heiss’ brown horse Teaser. In both heats Honest John proved to be the teaser and did not seem to know the word break, whilst Teaser, who could go a swinging trait when on a square pace, could not be kept down. It was evident, how ever, that Honest John was being kept in hand during the greater part of both heats, Jor when, in the second half mile of the second heat, the driver was called on to let him go, John's feet fairly parted company, his front legs seeming to reach for the mid dle of next week and in this heat he more than'distanced his competitor. Time 3.15 and 3.05. This ended the afternoon’s amusements, Since the last fair the buildings on the Park have received additional embellish" monts und if the price of excellence is labor considerable labor must have been expend ed theroou. Wagon Upset.—We learn from the Mt. Joy Herald thut Mrs. John Stauffer, of Mt. Joy township, her sister Mrs. Gibbs and son, and MissiFondersmitb, of Lancaster, met with an accident on Thursday afternoon that might have resulted much more seri ously than it did. They were driving up the turnpike above Springviile in a one horse wagon ; the horse getting on one side of the road, oue of the ladies in attempting to draw him back fell out and in doing so caught the Hue and drew the horse around, upsetting the wagon aud injuring all the ladies more or less.

Handsome Monument.—While on u visit to Lancaster Cemetery a day or two since wo noticed that many of tho lot-hold dershad been improving and adorning their burial lots with new fences, fine monu ments, shrubbery, marble surroundings, etc. Among tho numerous lots thus im proved, there was one which we viewed with pleasure, that of Mr. Joseph Welch nns, Tobacconist of this city, and which had been fiuished but a few days. It con tains a very handsome monument of the finest Italiun Marble, being of a design se lected by Mr. W. from several exhibited to him in Philadelphia, and entirely different from any yot constructed. The ornaments of the monument consist of the representa tion of a large urn on the top with cloth suspended from it, four haudsome wreathes on the sides, and “ the cross and crown ” surrounded by another wreath. Supposed to be Stolen.—About five o’clock on Saturday Mr. Emanuel Libely of Rohrerstown hitched his horse and wagon to a post near Martin’s grocery store, in Prince street, whilst attending market and when he returned, about seven o’clock, he found it had been taken away. He inquired everywhere concerning it but could not hear anything of its whereabouts, or by whom it had been taken off; the pre sumption is, therefore, that it had been stolen. If persons would give their teams in charge of a hostler at a respectable tav ern instead of risking their taking care of themselves, they would, in most instances, find it a saving speculation. It is only about a year ago that a horse and wagon was taken off the street under similar cir cumstances and has not been returned yet. Examination* ok Teachers.—David Evans, County Superintendent, recently examined the following applicants for schools, at the Union School Building in Columbia. They all passed a successful examination: Misses. Rettie Pinkerton, C. Lizzie Kin zer, Mattie J. Mifflin, Annie Caldwell Emma F. Hunter, Katie Stambaugh, Mag gio K. Mullen, Mary C. Hysinger, Nellie J Haldeman, Laura Burnitt, Amelia A Vaughan, Frisby L. Cooper. Runaway Accident.—The Oxford Press Btates that as Hardin Smedley, of Fulton township, Lancaster county, accompanied by his wile and her sister, Mrs. John Y. McCarter, and child, of Upper Oxford township, Chester county, was driving a pair of mules on the road near Oak Hill, on the 27tb ult., they met with a severe ac cident. While descending a hill, one ot the bolts which secured the tongue of the wagon broke, and the mules commenced to run. and Mr. Smedley jumped out and attempt ed to stop them, but fell down and was run over by the wheels. He held on to the lines, however, and drawing the mules in to a gutter, the carriage was upset, and the ladies were violently thrown out- Mrs. Smedley’s face Btruck the giound and was severely bruised, and one of her eyes badly injured. Mrs McCarter was injured in the back and breast, but ber child luckily es caped. . Mr. Smedly was considerably scratched and bruised, but with the assist ance of some of the neighbors was enabled to drive home. Man heim Items.—From the Sentinel : Monday last was. generally observed as the national holiday* in this section of coun try. In this Borough the Church bells were rung morning, noon and evening, and "Young America” indulged In firing off crackers, squibs, <fcc., at intervals during the day. Our farmers are now in the midst of har vest, and a few more days of fine weather will see them through with it. The crop id the finest and heaviest that has been gath ered for a number of years. . The oats, corn and potato crops also look very fine, and the indications ape that there will be a bountiful supply. The Break at the City Basin.—Quite an excitement was raised among oar citi zens, on Monday, by the report that the sonthBideoftheold City Water Basin had given way. At every house tabs and backets were hastily hunted up and placed under the hydrant in order that asapply of water might be obtained for the expected emergency. Along with a multitude of other persons we hastened to the scene of disaster and there ascertained tbe following facts respecting the “breakage.” The escape of the water was first noticed aboat 4 o’cloclt in tbe morning by a watchman at theConn ty Prison; ithe break commenced at the top of the embankment on the south aide of the Basin and 1 the crevasse was rapidly en larged by the increasing volume of water rushing through the outlet. At the Lime we reached tbe Basin thecrevasse was over fif teen feet wide at the top, two feet wide at the bottom, and some twelve or fifteen feet -deep; the water in the Basin was about level with the bottom of the crevasse and bad almost ceased to run out—leaving aboat five feet of water in the bottom oi the Basin. The cause of the breakage is attributable to tbe fact that there was too much water in tbe Basin ; the condition of the top of the embankment being such as to indicate that, in several places, the water had overflowed it —and that such an overflowing had oc curred at the place where the Basin had first given way. Mr. Kirkpatrick says the water was five bricks from the top at 9 o’clock last' night; a gentleman, named Herr, says there was water in tbe turnpike opposite the basin at 10 o’clock last night. The city can, at least partially, be supplied with water from the new basin while tbe old basin is being re paired. The corn field immediately south oftbebaslQ was badly washed by the es cuping water and the fields adjoining it on tho south were also overflowed. Water was first let into tbe old basin, on the 22d of February, 1837, the citizens celebrating the event by a grand procession. About 1845 the wails which theo sloped at an angle of forty-five degrees, caved, or rather slid lo the bottom of the Basin. No other serious dumugehas occurredoinceuntil the present crevasse. Thu new Basin, as is well known, frequently bruuks Us banks, and It is there fore not thought safe to pump into it more than 10 or 12 feet of water. Tho Water Committee have decided to Immediately repair the basin and wo are Informed that Mr. James Curpenter bus been selected by them to superintend the work. Our citizens will therefore, In a few days, bo furnished wllh a full supply of water. A Lancaster Prize Fighter.—lt nn peurs that Peter Matey, thu winner of tne recent prize fight, at Spruce Run, N. J., with James WamJall—was born In this city, in tho year 1843, and Is consequently about 21 years of ago. Maley is by occupa tion u pmldier in au iron mill, he stands 6 feel 8 inches In height, und weighs 120 pounds, ills antagonist, Wundell, was born In New Orleans, uud Is a minor. Ho measures 5 feet Si inches in height, and weighs 128 pounds. So far as weight and height are concerned, tho men could not be more ovenlv matched. Wundell at present resides in Reading. Both have (ought in the fistic urena before. Tho match was made tho llih of June, since which time both men have been In active preparation lor tbe contest. Wuudell’s friends, who wero instrumental lti bringing thu men to gether, placed great conllduuco in his pro wess uh a pugilist, nnd wero so sanguine of victory over the Luneasterlan that they wagered large sums of money ou tho result. The stakes were 8250 a side, and the men were to light at catch weight. During thelutterpartoftbocontost Wan doll continued to force tho lighting, with varying rusults, tip to the thirty-second round, when Maley dollvorod a tremendous blow on WnnduU’s left eye, completely closing It, und following It up by a loft hander on the noso. Wandoll responded with u blow on the mouth. Both then oountorod, during which WandelJ received another blow on his dosed eye. Wundell then measured his opponent, and burled a terrific blow at his opponent’s head. For tunately for Muloy, he dodged it, and un fortunately lor Wundell his left hand struck, with torrlulo foroe, the middle stake of tho ring, breaking his left arm in two placos. He fell on the ground from excessive pain and weakness, and the referee was obliged to declare Muley the winner of the fight. Tho struggle lusted one hour und forty minutes, and was oue of the most stubborn ly contested fights on record. Local Miscellany.—Tho Columbia Herald stutes that the late rise iu the river brought a groat number of rafu to that borough. Tbe majority of them, however, went through to Port Deposit. Every person in Columbia can have the use of the Shoch Library, of the Public Schools, for one year, by paying $2.00. Blackberries will be plentiful—not any too .plentiful, however, —in the Lancaster market. Tbo crop this year is said to bo very large. It is reported that some small veins of stono-coal have been discovered In the ex cavations for tho Manheim tt Pine Grove Railroad, near Mount Hope, in Rapho twp., this county. The cut in which those veins were found is about seven leet deep. Win. McDivitt recently presented the editors of the Columbia Herald with a number of gooseberries, the smallest of which measured three and three quarter Inches In circumference. Hard to beat 1 Mr. Levi Elimakor, from the Gap, this county, who was so seriously injurod by lulling from tho Cincinnati Express train, tho Ist inst., Is slowly recovering from his injuries—his ultimuto restoration to heulth Is now confidently expected by bln physi cians, Tho Herald says that tho plc-nlc held by tho Columbia Flro Company In llulso’s woods, the 3d Inst., was a great success, about $250 being realized, Tho Union Flro Company of York, numbering about thirty mumhurs, u,cootnpuniod by tho Spring Gar den Band, together with delegations from Philadelphia, RmußuK und Harrisburg wuru presum, uim-a general good tlrno wus tho result. Matrimonial Infelicity,—Severn! ousts of matrimonial lufeheity bavo recent ly come under our observation, which do very little credit either to “tils lordship” or hiH “butter half.” When husbands nnd wives have lived together for many years, and have roared children who look to eucb of them for guidauce und example, thero must bo something wrong on both sides when their grievances huvo to bo brought before the magistrate. AquurrelcanDovor tako place with loss than two combatants ; so that nil family difficulties might bo avolrled by practicing the old adage of Solo mon that “u mild answer turneth away wrath.” The troubles at which wo hint above seem to have resulted from tho op posing maxim—“always have the last word.” School Superintendents Convex* tion,— A State Convention of School Super intendents will bo bold at Harrisburg, commencing Tuesday, July2otb. Free Return Tickets have beeu secured for members attending the convention, on the Pennsylvania Central railroad, the Phila and Erie railroad, and tbe Northern Cen tral railroad. Tbe Philadelphia and Read ing railroad will sell excursion tickets to members, at the following points : Allen town, Reading, Norristown, Lebanon and Humelstown. Superintendents desiring to attend tbe convention can no doubt make special arrangements for reduction of of faro for themselves, on tbe various later al roads throughout the State. Questions of gteat interest will be considered. Columbia Items,—From the tyy The Board of Directors of the First Na tional Bank of Columbia, have declared a dividend of six and a half per cent., clear of all taxe3, payable on demand ; and plac ed to surplus ?0000. The rolling mill that might hare been built in Columbia is to be erected at Hunt ingdon, Pa. They are alive to tbe interests of tbe people in that town. They not ouly give Mr. Hatfield the ground, but take $6OOO worth of stock injhe new mill. Soldiers’ Orphans Schools.— Another year of School duties is about to close, and tbe regular annual summer vacation to occur—commencing this year on Friday, July 23d, 1869, and terminating on Thurs day, September 2d, 1569. Tbe annual ex aminations of the school and home in this county, will take place as iollows: Children’s Home, Lancaster, Thursday, July 15. Mount Joy, Soldiers' Orphans' School, Friday, July IG. Painful Accident.— A little girl, a daughter of Mr. Win, S. Shirk, residing in East King street, this city, met with quite a painfal accident Tuesday evening. She happened to find in her father’s yard a " Union ” torpedo, whicn greatly resemble in their appearance chocolate drops, and placed it in her mouth. On attempting to bite It, it exploded, lacerating the inside of her mouth badly, and tearing away a por tion of the inside of her left cheek. Tbe little girl is about three or four years of age, and her injuries,although painful, are not considered of a serious character. She was attended by Dr. Jno. L. Atlee, jr. Terrific Force of Lightning.— A few weeks ago, during a heavy thunder storm, a large chestnut tree was struck near the county line of Lancaster and Lebanon counties. The fluid first touched the high est branches of tbe tree in its eastern side near the top, thence it passed to the body of: tbe tree, which it tore into fragments for a distance of 15 or 20 feet, and then passed away into the earth. Tbe tree is perhaps three or four feet in diameter, and now stands as n withered and blasted monument of tbe terrific force of this mysterious and unseen power. Officers Elected.— At a stated meet ing of tbe Empire Hook and Ladder Com pany, No 1, held in their Hall on Monday evening, 12th inst., tbe following persons were elected officers for the ensuing year.

Important Improvement.—Lancaster Lodge, No. 67, of Odd Fellows, have made Borne handsome improvements at their Lodge Room in the Hnii t in South Queen street. On recently visiting the lodgg room we found it so mnoh im proved and so completely renovated that, to nse a common expression. “we oonld hardly believe our own eyes.” The walls and ceiling of the large lodge room, as well as those of the ante-rooms, have been fres coed in the most durable, ar isticand bean tiful manner; a handsome new carpet has been placed upon tbe floor; new chairs and settees placed in the room, and tbe whole place so improved that it reflects great credit upon all concerned. The new ar rangement of tbe desks of the Secretaries and Treasurer, is suoh a decided improve ment upon the old, that it is a wonder they were not fixed aa they now are long before this time. A handsome new chandelier has been placed in the* room, and the lights at tbe sides and ends—near the chairs of the presiding officers —have been entirely re modeled and arranged, and now form one the most attractive features of tbe magni ficient lodge room. The raised stands, which are ocoapied by the officers <1 tbe lodge, have been arranged vety differently from tbe old ones, and the appropriate and pleasing appearance they now present greatly enhances the general attractiveness of tbe lodge room. The new improvements contemplated by the lodge are not yet en tirely completed, but when finished they will put Lancaster Lodge in possession of not only the largest, but also the hand somest lodge room belonging to the Order in Pennsylvania, which fact is a great com pliment to the energy and activity of the Odd Fellows, ol* our city. The Snake Man.— Messrs. Editors : We had an opportunity yesterday nf wit nessing an exhibition of rather a disgusting character, and yet one of seemingly great Interest ton number of bystanders. The object of curiosity was, a man hundllug over a dozen of suakes of various sizes und species, among which was the deadly rattle snake. This reptile was represented as in full life and vigor, with Its fangs and venom sack tn perfect condition. Being curious lo knowhow such a monitor could be thus handled, nnd not strike the blow so fatal to man, wo drew near, when his mouth was opened In order to see the deadly fangv They were however among the miaslng, with tbe mouth as toothless us a babe’s, which of course rendered him Just as harm less. To those not versed In comparative An atomy, the mun who could handle so dead ly a reptile as a monster rattlesnake must be regurdod as super human ; to such he must no a “charmer” of no ordinary power. Now lot us apply the deduotlon ofaclenco to such pretenders, and wo will see how much farther this charmed life goes than the slmplo pelting of thoso disgusting ob jects. When a venomous snoke Is deprived of its fungs, It is rendered as harmless as no unlmul can be made. This Is tho secret of turning all deadly reptiles. No power on earth cun render them docile and harmless, when in full life and vigor, except this pro cess. We hove seen and touched tbe fangs of the skeleton rattlesnake, and though a skeleton, their very form and keenness caused a pereeptibleshuddor. Tho fangs uro placed In the anterior pnrtoflheupporjaw, und Incline backward, and’whon thu snake strikes It throws the Jaw buck, and emits tho venom through tho fangs. Tho poison ous sack amounts to nothing therefore, when tho fangs nro removed, for It can be used In no way to Injuro any other species of unlmal. Thoso poisonffus fangs are nlways In tbo upper Jaw, firmly set, with a canal running the whole length of tho tooth, which con tains tho oxcrotory duct of the gland fur nishing tho poison. When this Is In a nom inal state and the rattlesnake in its season of life and vigor, It would be?narine.M to lay It out on the street amidst a crowd of per sons, as was done with tho oue In question, yesterduy morning. To suppose the Indi vldual who had It, is oapnbie of t-o "charm ing" It as to make It as kind and docile as it whs then, is as foolish as it would be to stand your ground, or draw near to bis snakeshlp when he is prepared to strike the deadly blow. There is no instance on record where these venemou* reptiles, while In a normal condition, have been tamed. The Lion and the Tiger can have their savage nature sub dued, but tho rattlesnake, with all that specie of serpont, is all venom, and will strike just as often, and as long, as it has an object at band, or power to do so.

Charged with Assault. —John Hart* man and Jeremiah Dunklo had a hearing before Alderman Aiu weir, on Saturday, on a cbarg° of ussault aud battery on u boy named George Ochs, son of Joseph Ochs. It seems that the boy, In compuny with several others, had climbed Into an empty bay-wagon, driven by defendants, to have a ride. They were ordered oil' while tin learn was in motion ; and it is charged that while Delis was bauging to the wagon in the act of getting off, his hands were forci bly loosened by Hartman, causing him to fall under tbe wheels, which passed over his legs, seriously Injuring him. The case was postponed for a further hearing. Police Items. —Two men were brought before His Honor, Mayor Sanderson, this morning, charged with drunken andj dis orderly ; they were arrested by Officer Flory. A woman, a vagrant, was also arrested by Officer Mattern. The above parties were all discharged from cus tody after promises to behave better, and after being reprimanded for their bad cou duct. Between eleven and twelve o’clock, to day, a man and a woman were arrested by Officer Mattern for drunken and disorderly conduct. About the same time a man drunk and disorderly was arrested by Offi. cer Michael Fitzpatrick. Tbe offender made a desperate resistance and was with diffi culty overpowered by Michael, who, how ever, finally succeeded in plucing his prisoner in the lockup. The CirculatingMediu m.—The new issues of currency are to be printed by the leading bank note firms of New York city. The American Company is to prepare Un dies, engrave tbe plates, and print the faers of the new ten cent and fifty cent notes, and the backs of the twenty-five and fifteen cent issues. Tbe National will do the same by the backs of the tens and fifties, and tbe faces of the fifteens and twenty fives. Each company thus serves as a check upon the other. Tbe notes are then to bo seut to tbe Treasury Department and stamped. The faces of the ten cent notes will bear a vig nette of the Goddess of Liberty. The fifties aro to be ornamented with Carpeu.er’s por trait of Lincoln. The workmanship of these notes will be unsurpassed. When the bills are fuirly alloat, v/e may reasonably expect that they will soon crowd out the shocking fractional currency now in exist ence. Sale of Confiscated Cigars.—Collec tor Muhlenberg sold on -Monday, 21,100 cigars, seized for non-payment of the reve nue tax. They were offered in three lots of 1,200, 900 and 19,000.

Terrible Accident— Caving 0/ an Ore Sank One Man Killed* —The Columbia cpy states that, yesterday morning, whilst foar men were at work in a deep excava tion in the Cooper Ore Bank, a short dis tanoe back of Marietta. thl6 county, owned by the Messrs. Mneselman of that plaoe, the sides suddenly without the least warn ing caved in with a heavy crash burying the whole party a considerable distance be low the surface of the earth. The noise attracted other workmen in the mines to the scene, and beholding the sad calamity at once vigorously set to work to rescue their unfortunate comrades, if possible. Ooe by one the men were reached, and all with life, except slight injury, save‘one man named Schaeffer, who was literally smash ed to death and, sad to relate, leaves a large family, and a wife in a very feeble state of health, haying been confined to her bed now almost a year. Meeting of Workingmen.— The labor ing class of Bart and Eden townships, says a correspondent, met, the 6th Inst., to take into consideration the law which was enact ed by the lastJLegislature prohibiting cattle, Ac., from being left run at large on the public roads in Bart, Colerain aud Sadsbnry twps., under penalty of $2 fine for the first offence, and double for each subsequent offence—thus compelling the poor man to either sell his cow, or pay the advanced price for pasture, which is |3 per month. Several speeches were made in which the law was condemned in .unsparing terinsj; the opposition to the law among the poor men ol both the Democratic and Republlcau parties being very general. Negro Riot. —The negroes had quito a riot among themselves in Strawberry street, near the African M. E. Church, after Divine Service on Sunduy. For some reason the negroesgotto lighting among themselves, when one of tbeir number started to run and was chased by a number ofthe others, who threw stones at him and after him. A pistol shot was also tired, which happily for the darkey fulled to lake effect. Tho negro finally sought refugo in a houso in South Queen street and thus evaded bis pursuers, rho arrival of a member of tho City Police put an end to the disturbance.
