Wasiiinuton, July 20.—Tho trial of Mil lie Caines, colored, for tho murder of James C. Ingle, a white man, uud watchman in tho Interior Department, in March last, terminated to-day. Accoiding to her story, she had been on terms ofimproporiutimacy with the deceased, with tho prospect of be coming a mother. She had threatened to kill Ingle and tho lady whom ho had in vited to accompany him to the inauguration reception. Minnie subsequently interro gated him, when slio repeated tho threat, whereupon lie drew a pistol and placed it to her head, but could not discharge it. Tho accused asked him for money, in view of the anticipated offspring, when ho repulsed her. A short time after thissoene, she took advantage of his lying on a lounge at the hoarding house in which she was a servant, and killed him with an axe or hatchet. Tho deceased, not many days befpre the homicide, denied to one of the witnesses, that his conduct towards her was immoral. The counsol for the defenso sot up tho ploa of insanity, and numerous witnesses were examined on this point. Tho father of the prisoner showed that from the time of her great grnndnureuts to tho present period, insanity had been tho ruling utllietion of the family. .Judge Fisher, in charging tho jury, said a murder is called a homicide 1/ commit ted by a person of sound mind and with mulico prepense.

The New Education proposes to join lib eral culture and more professional cultare in one system. I do not myself believe that this can be successfully done. The professional interest, in the case, will be sure always to prove a Jonah’s whale to the liberal. The humanities will bo In the end swallowed up by the utilities. Where the directly practical is made to be the •* paramount interest,” the goyerniDg soul of education, we may have first-class scien tific and poJyteehnio schools, but we can not have colleges in the old classical sense. Young America may as well make up its mind at once to that. The utilities, simply as such, never have been, and long as the world stands never can be, the humanities. Neither can they be Siamesea together as co-ordinate interests in the same academi cal system. Co ordination here involves at ; once a sub ordination of the higher inter* j est to the lower. Still, as I have said, let the experiment | take its course. It Is well that some of our | colleges are rich enough tospread their sails j in this form to the popular brepze. Only i we need not consider it a calamity, that our j college is not able at oil to do tbo sumo 1 thing. Our circumstances (till some Packer or Pardee come to our help,) impose upon us plainly a different vocation. Our Prov idential mission and duty require us, It In ( clear, to keep to our old character and to sail lu our old course. And now nothlug can be more proper, then, that I should In such view insist on the title which our in stitution bus to public favor, from the very fact that it In thus exclusively devoted to thecuuse of liberal education in its old form. To magulfy tho office of Franklin and Mar shall College In this way, cannot be regard- T od as invidious certainly toward other col leges which glory In what they hold to be n wider und hotter office. It 1s right hero to j uiako tbo most of our own cuu^e. For there aro in truth two dlfioront pub lics to be considered in this case; and what olfends ono may plouso the othor. Thoio aro those of course to whom It must seem | u delect lu Franklin and Murshull College, i that It dooH not aim In lit young men • to tuko an iinmodlato and active mirt in tho | pructlcal und professional duties of tho I time;" tlml it hus no schedule of mixed j studies and optional scientific courses and | classes; that It has no little to do dlrgelly . with agriculture, trade, engineering and j mining. Hut there aro those aguln, also, j for whom all thlH iHNUrelo be a rccdmmuu- | dutlon. if there bc.u call lor mere buMnesH i education on the part of many, there In still yet a demand for true liberal education on the part of others ; -und for these, at leant, there must be fell Ur bo ulways a special advanlago, In a collogiutu system directed oxprcHNly uml entirely to tins object. Hero then wo roueh tho full distinguish ing character of our college ; on thu strength of which alone It commends itself to the fa vor and patronage of tho community In tho midst of which It Is located. It Is dyvoted ; to whut Is called higher educulh n, irfi some thing coming alter the common school and tlio auademy. At tho same time, Its object is not to prepare young men ul once lor professional business of any sort. It Is no part of Its work to turn out proachors, doc tors, or lawyers ; but only to secure the general common culture, which of right ought to come before all direct study for any of those professions. Just ns little Is It the business of the college to turn out skilled fanners, muster mechanics, engin eers, hankers or uilepts lu any other Indus trial occupation. Even where Its studies (physical, chemical, mulhcum(lcu) or other wise) admit ol a direct application finally to such practical pursuits, they an nut pri marily and specifically directed to this object, Tliono, therefore, who value knowl edge and learning Hlmply for the use that is io bo made of them In this way, and who can sec no purpose In figures or letters ox j eepl as they aro found to tell at once on tho | art of making money, must look elsewhere | for their beau ideal of higher education.— Our college is not for any such end as this. Ii aims at “mental culture for ilrt own 1 sako ’’ It stands in the service of /übrra! Kducation. And what now does this moan ? I do not know that 1 can answer the question bettor in short compass, than by quoting an elo quent passage from an address delivered a t.*w years ago before a meeting of College officers at Albany, N. Y., by my much honorod friend, l’rof. Taylor Lewis, of I'uion College, on The 7Yue Idea of a Lib■ cral A>/ucab'o7i—himself one ol' llie lineal examples of .such culture in the hind. Alter 1 noticing in a very general way the studies | which may be included under the term, he | goes on to say with a sort of almost poetic ' inspiration: ".Such u scheme is built on what man is in himself, in nis own inner world of bo ing. It may be said to rest, too, on the na lure of man in his most unchanging roiu tions to things within, beneath, above nt.d around him. As thus growing out of the human condition it has hen tofore, in all civilized communities, been rooognized us prosenting the prime elements and main outlines of the scholastic discipline. Hence most of these departments thus viewed have been styled 'the humanities and the courso combining them has been called Liberal Kduoation— paidcia clevthcnos, us it whs named by Aristotle, It is rightly so called, not merely as denoting the oduca lion of a freeman, which Is one seuso, but also as that which tends to free the soul from the sellish contracting inlluence with local and partial pursuits. These, however useful, and even indispensable, dp yet re quire soma acquaintance with humane and liberal knowledge, as a correction of that narrowness and prejudice, and one-sided nesa—wkieh ever results from viewing thiugs iu confined and particular situa tions, It is also liberal because it ruises a man out of hi 3 low individuality or indi vidualism into a freer life of humanity. It briDga him into communion with the com mon educated mind of the race, as repre sented by Ihut gathered knowledge of past, ugos which bus ever survived the tempor ary, and which furnishes the only sure ground for the much talked of progress. It . lifts him, wo may say, out of tbo spirit of ! the uges. It guards him against the delu- 1 ; sions of the vox populi, by turning his eur j 1 to bear and his heart to understand the vox < humanitatis; that "still small voice, which ; t ever remains us the onilowing residuum i ! after the froth and turbulence, the earth- : ' quake tiro and storm of each succeedingage ! ! have passed by. Ours too will add to that | noise, to te heard by tho ages that come 1 after us, but in toues subdued, and sound : ing very differently, it may be, from the ! near clamor of it that is now ringing in our i ears. Of such a course of education it may , be said that it given a man a command at pleasure over much that lies beyond or be : low it. It places him In a position from J which ho cun overlook tho whole held of knowledge, ami anytime stoop down and make himself master of any of the partial or professional sciences, whenever needed either as matters of utility or ofjeurious in vestigation. tie has his foundation; lie can build upon it what he pleases." This is beautiful, as a comprehensive de scription of what education for its own sake means. The end of all such education is iu our humanity itself, and not iu something on the outside of it and beyond it. It is the cultivation of man as mau, tho highest ob- Let certainly with which either art or science cun bo concerned. The subject however is so important, and at the same time so inti mately connected with what I hold to be the true local importance of Franklin and Mar shal College for our ciiy nnd our county, that 1 must task tho patience of my readers by returning to it again. ARTICLE VIII, There is a sense in which all education may be and ought to be liberal. The first object of our common schools especially should be uuquesliouiibly, not the making of animated und thinking machinery for tbo uses of political economy, but the un folding of immortal mind tor tbo higher . purposes of its own spiritual existence.— ' Anil all professional studies subsequently should be so ordered and conducted us to (tarry with them everywhere tho tono of tliis internal freedom. There may be thus u liborulj lndislinelion from an illiberal use, not only of law, medteino, and divinity, but of all business sciences also, agricultural, mechanical, or commercial. But with all this there is need for a sys tem and sphere of culture specially devoted to tbo object here in view, in the use of stu dies chosen and suited first for this end, and with the exclusion for the time compar atively of all other ends. Only through such provision entering into the general scheme of education, can this general scheme ever be properly liberalized in its other departments. No society can thrive spiritually in its proper human life at large, without the harmonizing leaven of a sound college culture working into it, and through it, in all its culture under other forma. Tho main thing in such central culture i (tho ouly true object of college education) is uot so much different sorts of,knowledge ; available for something else, os it is the . proper discipline rather of the mind itself for tho general uses of life. It is uot to be measured therefore by tho quantity of what it takos in, or holds last, as the common opinion is apt to suppose ; but rather by the quality ol its standing results in the persons of those who have enjoyed its ad vantage. "We oannot learn everything:’’—Dr. Taylor .Lewis tells us—“ Lite is 100 short. Much we must be wholly ignorant of; much in ev.ery department wo must take as sheer empiricist. Tho utmost knowl edge of the'common school is necessarily very limited. That of the college may ex cel it in quality but cannot greatly exceed it as far as mere quantity is concerned.— Regarded merely as a matter of accumula tion, or remombered detail, it is but little that our best educated men carry away with them into subsequent life of the sciences once pursued, unless, it may be in some particular branch to which they may have specially devoted themselves. The classical scholar forgets all but the most general principles of the mathematics. Tho mnth- I ematician loses, in a great degree, his ac tual knowledge of Greek and Latin; but its place in theteoul has not become a blank. Far from it. All is not lost that lies out of each one’s subsequently chosen line of stu dy. The value of scholastic discipline re mains in the mental states it has produced, and wbioh no other discipline could have produoed. It is still with the man in the change that has passed upon his soul, mak ing it impossible that he should ever be the man he would have been had he never re ceived it. It is still with him, in the eleva ted view it has given of the general field of ' knowledge, and in the spiritual power it has created of resuming a familiarity with any one department, or of adding to it any kindred knowledge whenever it. may be needed. In the attainment of such a posi tion, knowledge is a means, and not itself the end. In this respect quality is of more consequence than quantity. There is a vast difference between simply knowing a thing and knowing it rightly; that is, knowing its true place and compar ative vaiue in relation to other knowledge. Without (this ignorance is the safer —we may even say the higher, as it is the more hopeful state. There may be even an ex tensive knowledge, but so ill chosen, so out of connection with other departments—of consequenco, so ill-proportioned, so distort ed, so one sided, so falsely magnified or so refracted through false media, as to be actually a source of darkness rather thou light. The light that is iu it Is darkness—a darkness visible. It increases the souls Ig norance of Itself by its accumulation. Its want of harmony with other parts dimin ishes that highest and most usetul power, of estimating aright the comparative value of different kinds of truth. There is mnch said at the present day of moral courage; courage to think, couroge to speak. Per haps one of the highest exercises of this moral courage would consist iu a young man’s daring to be ignorant of some things now esteemed most important parts of hu man knowledge.” Golden thoughts, certainly, in golden words; which I am sure many of my readers, at least will thank me lor bring ing to their notice. They chime through my own soul like the music of bells, while I write them; and I only wish I could sound them with trumpet tone into the heurts ol others, young ?ncn especially , through the length uud breadth of our country. And now having gone so far, I must venture still ono more extract from tbo name admirable address: “Wbut then is Liberal education, and what ought to bo Included in the term ! Wo venture to answer, although In tho most general terms: It is that knowledge, and that mental discipline, which pertain to man us man, nnd which enable him best to perform that work which belongs to him us man, asido from those peculiar modifi- cations of-it which comes out of the indi- vidual's own peculiar circumstances, calling or pursuits. Knowledge for the first ol these ends is liberal education ; it is for every man, as fur us ho 4as tbo means of ohtuinlng It. Knowledge for the socond Is professional trulnlug, busluoss training, partial tralniig; it is for some men in distinction from others, to enable thorn to curry on their own nurticulur Job, trade, crafl, mystery, or wulk in life. Tho first Is for the soul's suko—for the soul's health; the second Is for the body in its widest warns, f>rnllvollbnod,for wealth, for wlmt Is culled success iu lllb—ln u word for things wholly unsplritual. There Is u per fect analogy'here between knowledge us the food of tho soul, iho broad of life, and the proper material food of the body.— Home things we eat are not digested. Homo parts of our bodily food puss otl' with- out Incorporation; other portions # enter Into the blood; they are transmitted into our very life, ami become permanent constituents of our organic personality. Ho there is a knowledge which is never di gested, uud never can be digested ; it must over remain crude, raw, fermenting. There is a knowledge which never truly enters into tho soul; it lies on the outside; it forms no part, us it wus never fitted to form a part of our mental growth. There is again u knowl edge which actually becomes u part of the soul. Wo spouk without a figure hero. It is|transmltted into something higher than knowledge. We not only know It, but wo live it spirltuuily. It Is not u thing used oo- uuslonuily for occasional purposes, like tho outside practical knowledge not wanted for the soul, but becomes an integral constitu ent of our spiritual being, never more to ho separated. It has changed the man so thill he can never bu afterwards what ho was belnro. Wo have spoken of the words which belongs to matt as man ; but is there such a thing, it may l>u asked, apart from the special individual pursuit of each man, and for which therefore ho ought to ho specially lined ? Woo to us if there bo not. A las Jbr our dignity, if ‘all of life’ for us 'be but to live;’ ll there bu not a higher end to which life itself—life present and life to come—be but a means, and that transcend ing end the culture of the soul in all that is most akin to itself; In all Unit is least mu- table, least transient, least partial; iu the knowledge of the necessary and the eternal, the knowledge of things that pass not uwuy. Yes, there is such a work of soul culture as an end in itself. The end of truo education, of liberal education, Is to enable us first to know, next to appreciate, and then to per form it.” As a fitting conclusion to this article take another quotation from a late number of that able weekly journal, The Nation, bear ing ou the same general point. “Anybody who recollects accurately the stock of knowledge ho brought away with him from the University, will recollect, no matter how brilliant a student he may have been, that it was comically smull. Whut univer sity training gives is a certain toneof mind, u certain way of looking at things, a certain amount of receptivity, nnd u useful ac quaintance with the relative amount of a mli'i’s own powers nnd acquirements. In short, wlmt ft does Is to Influence the char acter and the quality ol the intellect, rather than supply all that is necessary to be known. The moral iuflueuce of lieauthori- ties of a college is therefore of fully as much irapprtance as their attainments or teach ing cupuclty. We want in colleges more influence , ibo learning will lake care of it self. Whether classical or scientific, we suspect the amount of it young mou will absorb, and afterwards forget, will always remain pretty much the same. Iu that di rection the capacity of the juvenile intellect presents un obvious limit to the maroh of improvement. But there is no conceivable limit to tbo effect the right kind of collegi uto atmosphere might produce on juvenile character ; and to this we think hardly enough attention has been devoted, either in framing college government or choosing college pruftssors. It is only within a very low yours that it has been oven partially recognized that education is an art in itself, ami that success in it depends on the pos session of qualities totally distinct from those which enable a man to acquire knowl edge, and that it should therefore be treated as a profession in itself, and its prizes made the reward, not of learning and morality simply, but of learning and morality united with skill.

The plutes for those notes ave already been engraved at tho Treasury department. The backs of the ones wilt be printed by the National Bank Note Com pany of New York, and those of the two's by the American Company of tho sumo city. Tho designs for tho new fives, tons, twenties und other denominations have not beon determined upon. Tho Wells radicals will have a commilteo in Washington until after Congress meets to get ready for tho contest against tho Walker party. They already claim to huvo got oue half of the- Cabinet with thorn und they ulso claim that they have Ex-Secreta ry Stanton on their side. The Radical Mississippi delegation now here have prepared a statement to show that the Conservative movement is sup ported solely by the Democrats of that State. They are determined to get tho Ad ministration to use its patronuge against Dent. Tho Retrenchment Commilteo having concluded their investigation of affairs iu the New York Custom House, will leave that city August Ist for San Francisco via Pacific Railroad, where they will spend one week iu an examination of the manage ment of the Custom House there.

Virginia Republicans say that a canvass of the members of the Legislature elect show thut there will probably not be a quo rum able to take the test oath.

Baldwin aud Colonel Sutherlin are prominent candidates for the Senate. Tho French Cnble. Duxuury, Mass., July 27.—Tho entire day yesterday was occupied by the .French Cable electricians in tests and experiments. Numerous messages of a private nature buvo been transmitted toand received from Brest direct, and tho experiment 'of work ing with St. Fierro, und repealing from there to Brest, bus also been tried.

Sir James Anderson arrived and after witnessing tho working of the cable ex pressed himself satisfied beyond anticipa tion. Count de Favormy, the French Charuo d’A Hairs, and Mr. Watson, the American agent of the Cable Company were also present during the successful ex periment. During the day a message was read from the Secretary of State, giving as surance that no interference with tbo work ing of the cable would be made on the part of tho Government, and that business could commence at any time. It is hurdly probable that the cable will be ready for business before several days The land line between hero und Boston will not be finished before tho middle of the week, but the ground or trench cable be- tween the Hummock and tho office in Dux bury vlllago was completed this morning, and as soon as it is in working order mes sages will go and come direct from the bank building to the extreme foreign end of the cable, tho station at the Hummock beiug cut of course.

Tho Radical County Committee re-assem bled, pursuant to adjournment, to consider Mr. Billiugfelt's amendments to the rules governing primary elections. The doors of the room were left open, and there was an other great crowd of office-seekers present. The candidates already announced number ninety two, and the list is daily increasing. Tho Chairman stated that tho business in order was the consideration of the amend ments. A lively debate at ouce ensued, which lasted for a couple of h urs. It seemed to bo generally admitted that great and gross frauds had been committed at former elections, and that in more than one township the ballot boxes had been stuffed. Still Geo. Brubaker, Eaq., and some other members of the commilteo, not only op posed the proposed amendments of Mr. Billingfelt, out every other proposition that was brought forward. O. J Dickey, Esq., had hastened back from tho cool retreats of the White Moun tains to sweat and wrangle in a badly ven tilated room with the thermometer awuy up In the nineties. He offered a substitute for Mr. Bllllngfelt’s proposition, providing for the nppolntmeut of watchers by each of the cundiuutea who might suspect fraud, E. C. Reed, Esq., knookod the wind out of Mr. Dickey’s substitute by reminding tho Com mltteo that there wero Just ninety-two can didatoi a number so largo that no ordinary election room would liold one half the watchers to be appointed by them, "Hon est?” Audy Armstrong was strongly in favor of honesty, but opposed to extra Ju dicial oaths aud open builots, Uoorgu Bru baker, Esq., was opposod to the whole inovumout. The contest grow warm und hall'll dozen mom bora wero sometimes try ing to speak ut ouco. Tho tangle became inextricable; umlliually, on motion of E. C. Reed, K»q. ( the whole subject, Bliiln felt's amendments, the different substitutes and all, was laid upon the table by a vote of thu yeus and nays. Wu noticed ono country gentleman who voted uyu when tho mime of a member from from the city was culled. It soeins our Uadlcul friends cannot refrain from Uolug u little illegul voting even iu tlioir County Committee. Tho proposed amendments to the prima ry rules having been thus disposed of. and tlnuily as everybody supposed, " Hon est?” Audy Armstrong's pledges for tho legislative candidates wore thrust forward by the Chalrmun as uullulshed business, and tho next thing In order. The pledges being read, E. L'. Reed, Esq., moved un amendment plodglng tho legislative candi dates not to take more mlleago than they are luwfully entitled to, and not to appotm extru pasters und folders with tho purixise of druwlng aud pocketing the salaries. This was received with shouts of laughter, all directed at "Ilonust?” Amly Armstrong, who was ou his feet ut thu moment, pru parod to speak in support of ills pledges.— " Only SIUI from Mount Joy to Ilurrlxburg und buck,” cried a country member. “ Ami on a free pa-s at lliiil," spoke out a eandl dale for Prison Inspector. "Where Is ll lyuH," shouted some one, " I told you Armstrong would catch It,” exclaimed a delighted gentleman from (ho rural dis tricts. But, " Honest?” Andy wns'nt to lie pul down. Ho had not served as u po llcemun in Philadelphia for nothing, and ho stood his ground, only taking a little deeper whiskey lingo upon his taco than usual. Tho cry of "question,” "ques tion,” fulled to daunt him, und lie was li nally permitted to proceed with his speech. A motion to limit him to throe minutes w as not entertained by tho Chair, who perhaps dal not hear it amid tho confusion. After addressing himself to the subject properly beforo tho Committoo for live minutes, ho launched out into a defense ot himself. "No ono who knows Andy Armstrong will uo cuso him of dishonesty," ho indignantly ex claimed. (Loud laughter.) "Examine the roll at Harrisburg if you think I took too much mileage,” Ac., etc., amid cries of question and shouts, and jeers at tho speaker. Finally tho "confusion worse confounded ” was temporarily brought to an end by a motion for adjournment until 2 o'clock being carried. The carrying of that motiou earned the irrepressible Andy off his legs, and the crowd hustled him out of tho room in their hurry to get driuks and dinner. Ho retired reluctantly, still ges ticulating wildly and muttering something i about Illyits. At 2 o’clock tho fun began again. Tho ruMolutloriH of A.riiißiroi3g euuio up uml led to a lively deuato. Dr. Gutcbell thought the pledge to do away with tho publication of tho Legislative Record was ridiculous. " You cannot trust to tho newspapers” said ho. "No newspaper in the county, not oven the Lancaster Intelligencer, which is as correct and truthful as any other, guvo a true account of tho paster and folder busi ness. You must go to the Legislative record if you wont to see how many were em ployed.” Tito Dr, proceeded to pour Hot shot into this and the other proposed pledges. Mr. Dickey and others came to their de fence, uud after some slight amendments, they wero passed. A number of members of the Committee doclarod it was all a pre cious piece of humbug, as everybody knew that the members would not consider them selves bound by such pledges. Perhaps that improssion helped them through. Tho various members of the commilteo seemed to be Impressed with an idea that tho rules regulating tho primary elections ought to bo amended way, and in spite of the summary tabling of the whole subject in the morniug it was again brought up. Mr. Dickey’s proposition to appoint watchers, after being so amended as to limit the number to six in aDy district was Anally passed. And, as if this was not enough to insure something like an honest election, the amendments of Mr. Billingfelt were put through, alter changing them so as to pledge tho sacred honor of tho officers in stead of swearing them,and striking out the provision for voting un open ballot. It will puzzle thu Chairman of the County Com mittee to make head or tail out of the maugled and tahgled batch of stuff which was thus thrown on his hands. Disinter ested Republicans who wero preseut re garded tho whole thing as little better than a fureo, and no sagacious Individual expects any loss eheutlug than there has beeu here tofore. Wo heard a good (leul of humorous comment upon tho apparent animosity bo tweon Dickey and Brubaker, and their cuts at each oilier seemed ull to bo taken In a Pickwickian sense. Finally the Committee determined to hold a private session for the purpose of taxing tlio candidates. ||Tue New Fifteen Cent Notes aro , ; now in circulation ami bear some resom ' bliuice to the new teu cent notes* rc*(;ently j Issued, though they are nearly an imrh lon ger thaa the ten cent notes.

Now tho number of lodgos uro 171*; mem bers in good standing, 112,82-1; capita] in vested, $1:17,8(11,07. Tho Ordor is still very young—ouly two years old—yot It numbers over Homo three hundred lodges iu some nineteen States of the Union. • It is entirely unNecturlun, and, has nothing to do with polities—inculcating upon its members only tho highest of moral lessons, especially those of benevolence, eburity and brotherly love. For no Dead.— Tito Columbia spy states that Michael Grier came to tho premises of Abraham Kauffman, near .Silver, Springs, iti West Hompfield township, on Wednes day lust, aud took quarters in his barn. Ho took sick, and Dr. Borntholsel was sent for, (by Mr. Kauffman) who prescribed for him. Thu deceased grow worso. Ho was found dead on tin* barn floor on Nunduy. An inquest was hold on tho body by Num uul Evans, K»q., and a verdict rendered in accordance with tho abnvo facts. Tho do coased lived a number of years la tin* neighborhood and drovo ore teams for dif ferent parties. Lately ho has led u wander ing )lie. Ho became dissipated, which together with exposure, evidently caused his death. He h-lt no relatives nr friends in this county, hut it is bcllovod thero are some in York county, Proe. Liour’.s Balloon. —Tho cele brated aerial navigator, Prof. Jno. A. Light, of Lebanon county, mado u balloon ascen sion from York, York county, at ten min utes before J o’clock, Saturday ufternoon last, and, after a fuvorable voyage of one hour and twenty minutes duration, effected a landing near tho Conestoga Furnace, at the southern part of this city, ut about ten minutes after lour o’clock. The Professor therefore mado .the dlstanco,. twenty-two miles in excellent time. The Columbia ‘Spy says'Jthat when the balloon passed over Columbia it was up a considerable distance,- but was distinctly visible. Tho Professor mado a number of windlass bulloontascenslons at York before cutting loose, and we qro informed that as the Professor first ascended from that bor ough tho balloon took a northeasterly course, bin subsequently reached a current of air that carried it, at quite an altitude, lfiwnrdn I.anouHtur. whort* tho ProfeHHOr resolved to stop. The descent and lundlng of the baboon was effected without injury to tho enterprising Aeronaut. It is stated that the balloon was constructed of muslin painted with some preparation that mnde it airtight, and that it contained, when In- Mated, about 10,000 cubic feet of gas. Prof. Light returned homo to York tho same eve ning of his arrival, but propones to make ascensions in Lnucastor if sufficiently pa tronized. A Humane Act.—Our confidence iu the natural kindness of heart of mankind has recently beon very much strengthened. Wo noticed, Thursday morning, beingdriv en across Centro Square an old horse very infirm and quite lame. He was bitch ed to a wagon and it was with extreme dif ficulty that he could drag his load after him; the faithful animal had evidently seen many years of faithful service, and was now being abused in his old age—a sad recompense fur a long, weary and ar duous term of toil. But at Inst one indi vidual—iu a whole city full—sympathized with the old horse and noticed his entire unfitness for further work. Our friend Dr. MisUlor, casually seeing the old horse, resolved to purchase him and provide for him in tho future. He gave his owner $l5 for him, and has now placed him in the care of couipetont parties whoso business will be to see that tho old horse is properly provided for—and that in his old days (the horse is now 35 years old) his lot be cost in greeu pastures and a comfortable stable. Singular.—The Inquirer states that a very singular afiair occurred at tho house of Jonas Chamberlain, who lives in the northeastern part of Sadsbury township, this county, near tho Chester county line, Saturday evening last. Just in tbe dusk of tho evening a stranger walked Into the porch in front of tho house, and seating himself, asked if ho could bo allowed to re main all night. Mr. Chamberlain not being particularly pleased with the stran ger's appearance, told him that he could not. He then in rather a rough tone, de manded three dollars with which to pay ins lodging and. meals at a tavern. This was also denied when ho started cut, and after walking a short distance, took from his pocket a pistol and deliberately fired at Mr. Chamberlain, tho ball passing near his head, but fortunately doing no injury. He then started and ran away and under cover of the darkness cM.-aped.no one bat Mr. Chamberlain being near to pursue him. There does not appear to bonny clue to j his identity. Parade of American Mechanics.— Tho Mount Joy Herald says that, as .an nounced, tho parade of tho order of Amort can Mechanics came olf in that villago on the 17th Inst. Tho day was beautiful and nothing to mar the pleasure of the occasion. Tho Wavnesburg Cornet Band arrived here on Friday evening, having driven tip from Wuynesburg. In tho evening they sere naded a number of our citizens. Mr. A. B. Landis, the builder of their splendid wagon, and his men wore espeeiallyghivored. The Elizabethtown, Middletown aud NewJCum berland Bands were also hero with Councils from their respective pluces. Owing to tho delay In harvest occasioued by late rains, which kept the country people at work, the attendance was not’so largo. The proces sion. however, was quite respectable in numbers and imposing in appearance. Suicide.—Samuel S. Gablebolter known as “Olil Sam. Switz Gable.” was found suspended from a cherry tree on the prerit ises of Mrs Roth, Ephruta township, early on Saturday morning. Tho deceased was 72 years of age. He was at times of very Intemperate habits, and had of late been indulging pretty freely in tho use of liquor, which no doubt accounts for the rash act. Mr. G. was nn expert workman. He never had a family. An inquest was held on the body by Deputy Coroner Spent. —Express. Farmers’ Club.— The Oxford Press nays thut several of the progressive farmers of , Colerain and Little Britain townships, | Lancaster county, recently organized a club j for mutual improvement in farmingseience. i The club consists at present of nine mem i bers and Is limited to sixteen. Jumes For- I sytbe was appointed President, John A. i Alexander, Secretary, and William Wil son, Treasurer. The club meets monthly Rttbe houses of the members. The first meeting will be at John A. Alexander’s, on the first Saturday in August. The club is called the West Branch Farmers’ Club of Colerain and Little Britain. Accident. —Last Sunday evening a young man named James McAvoy, who 'resides at P. McEvoy’s in Manheim twp., ■near this city, while ridiug a colt was thrown and considerably injured. His head was badly cut in two places, and bis neck was bruised. He is attended by Dr. Geo. A, King, and is now recovering as rapidly as the nature of his injuries will admit. " Accidents at Epftrata.— A correspon dent of the Express furnishes it the follow ing items : James Davis, son of Col. E. W. Davis, of Philadelphia, guests at Ephrata Springs, met with a serious accident on Friday last. Mr. Davis, with several other persons, started on a trip to Litiz. When nearing or crossing over a bridge at Sbeaffer’s Mill, Warwick township, Mr. Davis’ horse started off at full speed. Mr. D. being un able to control him, was thrown out of the buggy and had his skull fractured. He is, however, on a fair wayoi recovering. A boy, Bon of Mrs. Faust, Ephrata, while on a tree cutting off a limb for a fisbiDg rod, fell to the ground, the knife penetrating one side of bis nose and passing out on the other. The wound is a severe one. The lad is doing well. The wheat crop is generally harvested in this county, though the rains in the early part of this week occasioned some delay Small quantities of it have been threshed by some farmers; they pronounce the quality superb. A Bio Load.—On Wednesday last a team of six mules.hauled flfetf Goo. D. Sprech* er’s slate yard, this citjvlo Mcraniville, six tons of roofing alato. Tbo slute are to be used In coveriug a dwelling house, 44 by 86 fe<t, now being erected by Mr. BenJamlD Getz, in the village of MnuntvJlle. Tte team Is owned by Mr. A. R, Witnier —Jn cob Metzger, teamster. The heavy weigl t hauled shows that the famous “Conestoga Teams,” of Lancaster coonty, still main tain their superiority over those of other sections of the country. Bark Burned. —The Mount Joy Herald says that on Thursday afternoou the barn of Mr. Peter Risser, south west of Uole brook, was struck, by lightning and con sumed. Mr. Risser and nls two sons were in the barn unloading grain when it was struck. They were struck insensible for a short time and when they came to, the fltmes already, reached the’bnrn floor, but t ley succeeded in backing out the team with hilf a load of grain.
