The DO.llllllOllll Treaty WASIIINtiTON March 27.—A Senator who has made a canvass of the Senate on the question of the ratitiCation of the treaty for the annexation of St. Domingo, says there aro forty-two Senators against it, which is a majority of the Senate. From this it appears that not only will the treaty be re jected, hut the proposed joint resolution providing for the annexation of the island could not command a majority of the Senate. The time for the change of ratification expires on Tues day. Ordinarily, this would kill a treaty, if the Senate failed to reach a vote by that time. But it is understood that it will not affect the Dominican treaty for the reason that President Baez, of San Domingo, is so anxious to have the treaty ratified that he will consent to. an indefinite extension of time. Tho President will probably inform the Senate of this fact in a special messags Terrible Calamity—A Whole Family Killed. About 21 P. Iff., on Sunday, while the storm was at its height, the large unfinished five-story brick building, No. 627 West Forty-sixth street, fell with a terrible crash. The side and rear walls were complete. The front wall was only carried up to the second story. The side wall on the west side toppled over on a one-story brick building, occupied by Benjamin Donnelly, his wife, and four children, and were all buried in the ruins. At the time the calamity occurred, Robert Henderson, residing at No. 612, a short distance below, and his daughter, were seated in the front room, the latter near the window. Ho heard a deep, rumbling sound, followed by the exclamation from his daughter, "Oh, God! look there," and hurrying to the window, he saw the untin ishe&building giving away, and fall with a crash, outward, all the parts apparently giving away at the same time. Hurrying•from the house he, with others, gave an alarm. It was scarcely necessary however, for the noise of the falling build ing had aroused the entire neighborhood, and in a comparatively short time over 1,000 people had congregated in the neigh borhood. Information of the affair was sent to Capt. Bogart of the Twenty-second Precinct Police, and himself and a platoon of men were soon on the spot. The police, assisted by citizens, at once set to wcirk to clearing away the mass of bricks and tim ber that covered the Donnelly family, but nearly an hour had elapsed beforZt any niember was reached. All, with the exception of the boy Charles, were found in a heap near the front door. Apparently they had• been seated around the stove in the front room, and hearing the crash, had started to escape, but had only reached the front door when they were struck by the falling mass. The deed are Benjamin Donnelly, the father, age :31i, his wife, age :15, Catharine Ann, age 10, Win. It., age 4, and Hugh, age IS months. Charles, aged seven, was sitting astride a hobby-horse when the crash came, and when found by the searchers was lying beside it. Both legs were broken, and he was otherwise shockingly bruised and cut. II is life was only saved by sonic beams falling across a portion of the walls of Dunnelly's reside n ce, and forming a sort of The bodies and the injured lad were re moved to the residence of M r.

A Romantic .Tragetly--A Virginian Marries His Own Daughter. It was said Inv Solomon, who, in his day was the wisest of men, that there is "noth ing, new under the son." it would seem, front the frequent oceurenee of remarkable incidents, that there is certainly nothing of an improbable nature, judging front the following wonderfully strange and hardly creditable story which came to our ears a few days since. In the spring of 1849, when the gold fever was at its highest possible state of excite neat in California, and the yielding earth wore a rich carpet of green verdure, waving luxuriantly in the soil southern clime, as its dew-sprinkled petals proudly kissed the morning Sllnbenlllti, there lived in the State of Virginia, on the banks of the flowing York river, a few miles below the histori cal town of Yorktown, a gentleman of cut- Ulre, whose parents were in moderato circumstances. It seas during the gold excitement' his let't the comforts of a home, his friends, relatives, a loving wife, whom he had led to the altar but a year since, and an only child—a daughter of two months— and took up his lonely journey to seek his fortune in the wild, distant West, over and beyond the Rocky Mountains, where the bright and . golden sun sinks down to rest amid the blue waves of the grand Pa eitie. A flee years of toil, drudgery mid reverses of fortune in the mines, he came to this oily and engaged in business. lie being successful, soon amassed an immense for tune. Ilk beloved wile had died during a prevailing epidemic while on a visit to some relatives during the yellow fever season at New Orleans, as at the saute time did a lit tle girl olanother family, of the name and age as his little daughter. Ile visited the States, but could tin t no . clue to his tleeClLti rd wife's sister; he thought naturally, she, too, hail died. Ile returned to the Uolden Slate, and time and the whirling excite ment of business soon healed his sorrows, and effaced, apparently, all recollections of his old 1101110 011 010 hanks of the placid York. Shortly after the completion 'of the Pacif ic railnso I there arrived at this city a gen tleman, his wife and a beautiful, well-edu eated :ind graceful younglady just blooming into maidenhood, apparently and really of about eighteen summers. It was by Chanel, the young lady and aged widower met—and to nwet was to love. They were duly married after a short acquaintance; the ceremony being celebrated with great cebtt, and creating no little flutter in the fashio nable and wealthy circles of our city. The filet that both parties bore the same Christian name excited no comment or enquiry, a,: it leas one almost quite as common as that of Smith or Brown. A few weeks after the marriage, as the husband nut wife naturally inquired into each other's past history and antecedents, ane were gradually becoming better ac quainted with each other, the denouement came—they were father and daughter—man and trite ; the instinctive love of the parent for the child and the daughter for the father had been superseded by strong emotional passion asexual love. Both innocent at heart, but foully criminal in the eyes of man and of God. this daughter was not dead, as he sup posed, but, after the death of his wife, seas kindly taken charge of by his sister-in-law, who had married and moved to a distant State, and who also, with her husband, ac companied his wife's daughter to this coast, to meet as strangers, lovers and subse quently parent and child—as they were— cultivated passionate love changed into filial and parental devotion.

The blacks did not turn out strong. Whether it was be cause they have a poor appreciation or the orator, or for some other cause, we can not say. There were not more than a score or so of American citizens of African descent present. The hour of eight ii'eloek having arrived, A. If. hood, Fog., introduced the orator of the evening in that peculiarly graceful and elegant style for wh i ch he is so much distinguished. Fred. Douglass is quite a light mulatto, with few or the peculiar remarks of the Afri can about his face or figure. Ile hits long flowing, grey hair, with a slight kink in it, and wears a modest black moustache. Ile wits well dressed, in (lark clothes, with a broad turn-dawn collar of rather ancient pattern. Ills subject was: •• Our Composite Na tionality,- and he commenced liv remark ing, that he would consider it under these heads:—lst. What wo are. Al. What, we are likely to become. 3rd. What we ought to be. Ile spoke in substance as fi)iioWS: There was a time when I could not con scientiously say aught to add to the self complacency of American citizens. I am more trtiniate now, in view of the war and what has since happened. Other-na tions have passed the zenith of their glury, ours is to come ; they have exhausted their resources, Ours are only partially developed. I regard our future as very fall of promise. Three classes of people dissent from that view. The first is a class of reformers who think things move too slowly ; those who believe in strong government; At , the constitutional croak ers, who scent to have learned their lesson from t'oe's raven, and eternally cry, " no more! never more!" The chief objection made by the latter class is that the govern ment will never work well in the hands of two races so dissimilar as are the Caucasian and the African. I admit there is some danger that it will not, but hope for the best especially since I have soon allegro take the seat vacated 1,3-Jefferson Davis in the C. S. Senate. Carlisle represonfitthe monarchial croakers, and he sympathizes with slavery of every description, and predicts the must horrid future for this country. We are not faultless, and tray learn front those who criticise us so harshly. The view is hope ful, however; we are the best fed, the best clothed and the best educated people of the world. Individuals in Europe surpass in dividuals in America, but the elevation of the masses is much greater With us. I may be a little elated myself, and more than or dinarily inclined to hopeful views. The very suit looks upon me with a new bright mess, and the heavens shine with greater refulgence since the change in the condi tion of may race. Twenty years ago wher ever I went I expected to be insulted, and was not often mistaken. It is all changed now. How then can I help feeling com placent and hopeful: I hold ours to be the natural, and the Monarchical to be the experimental government. The mistake we made at ti rst was in the attempt to cir cumscribe the uncircumiscribable, to limit liberty to a class. Thus came trouble, thus trouble always must come while I hod is just. We have already among us many classes and creeds. The European and the African hate long been here; the Indian was here before either. Poor fellow ! I pity the noble aborigine as I see him dwindling away before the advance of a merciless policy.— English civilization on the North saves him, Latin civilization on the South pre serves his race ; we alone destroy him. Your fathers made a mistake when they excluded the Indian and the negro from the body politic. But a new race, John Chinaman, is coming ; already 100,00 U have landed on the shores of the Pacific, and the time is not far dis tant When they will be numbered by mil lions. The checks to his coming will prove weak and temporary, the inducements strong and lasting. The bones of the Chi : nankin are now sent home for burial, but he will soon corn/Mde that a land which is ' good enough to live ;mil die in, is good enough to be buried in. The facilities for emigration will be increased, and these Asiatics will dock in whole communities to our shores. China might spare us forty millions and not feel the loss. The privi leged classes of the South want cheap labor —the landholders are still powerful ; they own thousands of acres ill a body, and will nut sell either to the win to carpet-bagger or the negro. The land owners are always a powerful class, and those of the South are still so. The North felt their power in years gone, and will likely feel it yet again.' They will make an effort to control the negro vote, and may succeed to a great extent. You , know the negro. Ile is good natured, fond of rest—is great on rest; very religious; was kept in slavery by his religion ; all his master had to do wag to read to him "curs ed lie Canaan," and "servants obey your masters, - and he was docile and obedient— content to work without pay all his life, and to take his pay in Heaven. The Chin:l -ntim belies - es in making the best of both worlds, and takes care to get a good share of this one first. Ile has been educated to shrewiness,and the Southerners will not find John ready in step into the east ass - ay shoes of Peter and Pompey ; they can be had to labor, but will want their wages regularly according to contract, and will not work as the negro did fur nothing. They will come. We want them in the North. They are good laborers and excellent cooks. Paddy is getting to be a little apish, Biddy must wear a water fall as big as her mistress, and the negro is running for Congress. We want somebody to du our work. The Chinaman is coining to do it; he will soon swarm on the shores of the Pacific and spread all over the country. What is to be done with him 7 It is a serious question. The query is no longer what shall be done with the negro. The Californian has already taken a hostile po sition to the Chinaman, and the Irishman, with narrow prejudice finds his bare fore head a good mark for the shillefith. It has been argued that there is a natural hostility between different races of men. It is not so in Brazil, where black and white freemen are on an equality. I know it is not so in Europe. When I was there I was treated respectfully; walked with lords and ladies, and mingled freely with the masses ; went to churches and places of amusement on an equality. The pre judice of race is strongest in the lower classes of whites in this country; I could get my son into a lawyer's office easier than into a blacksmith's shop. I have no doubt the negro is practically inferior to the white man, but it is the result of education. What he wants, and what I demand for him is fair play. Let him alone. If he wants to go to your church, or to your school, let him go; if he wants to go to Congress, as I am going, let him go. I have a great respect for the Caucasian race, with its blue eyes, straight, light hair and three-storied head. My Democratic brethren class me with it. When Fred. Douglass is quoted as an exam ple of what the negro can do, they say, ' Oh! he is more white than black ! We have a mission. We are to set the world an example of the dignity and power of a nation in which the unity of the races and the common brotherhood of man is fully recognized. We can only have harmony and unity by showing fair play to all. The speaker alluded to the services of the negro in the rebellion, returned to the Chinaman and insisted upon giving the ballot and equality to all men of all races. He also announced himself in favor of female suf frage, and dwelt upon that point for some time. The lecture occupied over two hours in delivery. It was written, but the speak er did not confine himself closely to his notes. He has a fine, mellow voice, with but little of the patois which belongsto the negro race. Sketch of St. John's Free Church, Inn =27G2 In the year 1652 Rev. Samuel Bowman, Rector of St. James' Episcopal Church,com menced the agitation of an enterprise which had long been with him a cherished object—the establishment of a church which should demonstrate the merits and success of the free church system. The importance and necessity of the system had been deep ly impressed upon his mind, daring a visit to New York, where he had entered a fash ionable church, an entire stranger, and took a seat in the most convenient pew. The ownersoon after came in, invited him out, took possession and locked the pew door. After service he made himself known to the Rector of the church, who upon learn ing what had occured, was deeply chagrin ed that so eminent a Christian brother should have been treated with such indig nity- in the house of God. But Dr. Bowman assured him it was the fault of the system, under which he, though a clergyman, had no more right to claim immunity from such treatment than the humblest worshipper who happened to enter the house of God as a stranger. This incident made a deep and lasting impression upon the doctor's mind, and he was frequently heard to refer to it in after years when urging the claims of the free church system. A circumstance almost similar to that re lated by Dr. Bowman, was the immediate cause that gave rise to the organization of St. John's Church. A bridal party had en tered St. James' Church, and occupied a pew belonging to one of the members, who on entering the church, politely requested the party to vacate the pew. This they did and left the church. The circum stance made a deep impression upon the mind of a prominent member of the church, who took occasion within a few days to broach the subject to his Pastor, and urged the erection of a new church, the seats of which should be as free as the air to all who chose to avail themselves of them. 1/r. Bowman listened with profound inter est to a proposition that he himself had been meditating for months, and before the interview had terminated it was resolved to look out a suitable location for the new church. In the month of November, 1532, after laying his plans before a number of his friends and parishioners, arrangements were entered into by Dr. Bowman, ( through the agency of that public spirited citizen, the late F. J. Kramph,) for the purchase of the lot of ground on the northwest corner of Chestnut and Mulberry streets, which was purchased for $9OO. At that time there was nu place of religious worship in that sec tion of the city, and the field to be occupied was legitimately missionary ground. This consideration had much to do with the se lection of a location then regarded as al most out of the city. On the sth of December, 1552., Dr. Bow man preached a discourse to the congrega tion of St..lames' in behal fof the new church enterprise. lie Was always a leader where he asked his people to go, and though his means were limited, he headed the sub scription with a contribution of $l,OOO, to be paid in proportion as the entire amount should be raised. On the 10th of February, 1555, we hind by a notice in the local papers that the committees were at work soliciting subscription for the new church, and met with encouraging success. On the 20th of March, of that year, the workmen were at work excavating for the foundation of the new edifice, and the work had so far pro- grossed that the corner stone was laid on the third Sunday after Easter, (April 17,) 1652, at 2I o'clock, the Right Rev. Bishop Potter, officiating. The corner stone and marble slab which covers it, were the gift of Lewis Bahly.— In a tin case placed within the corner-stone, the billowing articles were deposited: 1. A small block of Marble, containing the name of the church. 2. A Bible and Pray er Book of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Ended States. 1. A copy of the Journal, and of the Constitution and Can ons of the Church in the Diocese of Penn sylvania. 4. A Church Almanao for the year 1552. 5. Several Periodicals of the day, both secular :and religious. Among those who co-operated with Dr. Bowman in the good work, were none more earenest and self-sacriticing, than his sister, Miss Mary Bowman, who will also be ever gratefully remembered as the foun der of the Childrens' Home. She seas ac tive in the difficult work of organizing a Sunday School, which was begun in One of the public sch o ol buildings on Mulberry street, adjacent to the church. She went from house to house to urge the parents to send their children, and though often dis couraged and sometimes even rudely re pulsed, she persevered, and a promising school was organized lung before the new edifice was ready for its accommodation. This may, indeed, be claimed the foun dation upon which the congregation of St. John's was built.. And so long as she re mained in the city, she took a lively inter est in its welfare. The first formal meeting of persons in terested in the erection of St. Joint's Free Church, was held on the 5111 of May, 15.53. There were present at this meeting, Rev. Dr. Bowman, Messrs. Edward Morton, Robert Clarkson, Henry P. Carson, Isaac Diller, I lenry Shwmaker, Wm. Diller, Jacob NI. Long, .1. Veates Cunningham, Nathaniel Ellinaker, Joseph Clarkson and Henry Wright. At this meeting a form of Charter was agreed upon and "St. John's Free Episco pal Church" adopted as the name. The fol lowing persons were elected vestrymen under this organtzation: Henry Wright, Isaac Diller, Rob't Clark son, H. I'. Carson, Win. Diller, Win. Wil son, sr., 11. E. Slaymaker. The vestry organized by electing Rev. Dr. Bowman, Rector, Henry E. Slayinaker, Secretary, and Robert Clarkson, Treasurer. Henry \Vright was appointed Rector's Warden, and Isaac Diller elected Warden to the Vestry. Dr. Bowman presented the plan and speci fications Mt a Church edifice, in the Gothic style of architecture, which lee lead procur ed from John E. Carver, architect, of Phil adelphia. This plan was adopted, and is sabstantially the one carried out in the structure, some few changes leaving been made, such as the substitution of shingle for slate roof, the insertion of the circular window in the west gable, and the failure to carry out the details of the architect's plan for ventilating the nave of the Church. At this meeting Messrs. Morton, Slay maker and Isaac Diller, were appointed a committee to invite proposals front build ers, and at the next meeting', they reported proposals from various par'ties, raiming frolic 1-15,6'30 to $11,750. On the 'kith of May, 1853, t he contract was awarded to the late 0. C. M. C'aines, (lee being the lowest bid der,) for the sum of $5,630, "including the foundations," and a building committee was appointed consisting of Isaac Diller, Edward Morton and H. E. Slaymaker.— Although the contract price was $5,630, it may be mentioned in this connection that the entire cost of the ground and church edifice, as reported by Dr. Bowman to the vestry in 1857, was $15,000. This was ex clusive of thee Parsonage, since erected, and various other and more recent improve men ts. On the 12th of April, 1551, Rev. I A. Coit, then Deacon, and for some time pre vious a teacher in St. James' Parochial School, was elected Assistant Minister, at a salary of ;MU per annum. One-half of this sum was provided for by the "Society for the Advancement of Christianity in Pennsylvania." Dr. Bowman, though holding the position of Rector, and most zealously laboring for the promotion of both the spiritual and temporal interests of the new parish, Mr years afterwards, would never consent to accept any pecuniary compensation. The new building was so far completed that the Lecture Room was occupied for the first time for divine service nn Easter Sun day, April 10, ISS-1. The services commenced at a quarter past three o'clock in the after noon, and were conducted by Dr. Bowman, who, with the aid of Mr. Coit, maintained regular services until the completion of the building., in November following. The church was consecrated to the.wor ship of God on the morning of September 24, 1)-(5-I the rah Sunday after Trinity), by the Rt. Rev Alonzo Potter, D. D., Bishop of the Diocese of Pennsylvania, assisted by Rev, Pr. Bowman and Rev. Messrs. Pass more and Coil. The following is tho "The Rector, Wardens and Vestrymen of st. John's (Free) Church, Lancaster, l'a., having requested me to consecrate the house of worship lately erected by them in said city— lle it known, That on this twenty-fourth day of September, in the year of our Lord, 1,554, I have in the manner prescribed, duly consecrated and set apart said house of worship, separating it henceforth from all unhallowed, ordinary and worldly uses, and dedicating, it to the service of the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, for reading and preaching His Holy Word, for celebrating His holy sacraments, for offer ing to His glorious Majesty the sacrifices of praise and thanksgiving, and for the performance of other holy offices, through Jesus Christ our Lord. In virtue whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 24th day of September, 1554, as aforesaid, and in the 10th year of =ll (Signed) , A LONZO POTTER, [r.. s.] Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church in Pennsylvania. On the 17th of November, 1834, Mr. Coit tendered his resignation, to take effect on the first December following, he "having received and accepted an appointment to a mission in the diocese of New York."— While residing in Lancaster Mr. Coit was married to Miss Wheeler, who for several years had been a teacher in St. James' Par ochial School. He is now the principal of an educational institution in Concord, N. H. Rev. J. E. Eccleston was elected assistant minister on December 14, 1854. He preach ed until March 30, 1855, when, owing to impaired health, he requested and was granted leave of absence for nine months; but before sailing for Europe he sent in his resignation, dated December 19th, 1855, which was accepted. The services, in the meantime, were con ducted by Dr. Bowman, until the 20th of July, 1855, when Rev. Horatio N. Powers was elected Assistant Minister during the absence of Mr. Eccleston. Mr. Eccleston returned from Europe in the spring of 1850, and on the 23d of March (Easter) preached to his old friends in St. John's. He then ac cepted a call to the Rectorship of St.. John's Church at Clinton, Staten Island, N. Y., Where he labored with great acceptability. He is now in New York, and has attaine 1 quite an eminent position among church men. After the resignation of Mr. Eccleston, Mr. Powers was elected to fill the position of Assistant Minister permanently. He shortly afterwards married a niece of Dr. Bowman, the Rector. On the 95th of February, 1057, Dr. Bow man tendered his resignation, to take effect on the following Easter. Re had fostered his favorite child, with paternal tenderness during its infancy, and now with a church property costing $15,000, all paid, regular services established, and as he understood 'the services of his assistant to be entirely acceptable to the parishioners," be pro posed to sever his official relations with St. John's. • - - As an interesting fact, it may be men tioned in this connection that Bishop Bow man preached his last Sermon in St. John's Free Church, on the Sunday evening be fore his death, from the teat. " For I have resolved to know nothing but Jesus Christ and hint crucified." It was a very inclement evening, and there were only about a dozen persons present. The congregation erected a tablet to his memory, which was placed at the east end of the nave of the church, and bears the following inscription: Sacred To the memory of . • • The ROT. REV. SAMUEL BowmAN, D. 0., Assistant Bishop of the Diocese of Penn's., And First Rector of this Church, Born May 21, 1800. Died Aug. 3, IStil. The Existence of this Church is d ue to his energy and watchful care. "Ministering to the necessities of Saints; given to hospitality." On the 17th of March, 1857, Mr. Powers tendered his resignation as Assistant Min inter, to take effect on the approaching Easter festival. His resignation was ac cepted by the vestry with great reluctance, for Mr. Powers had won the esteem and friendship of the entire congregation, and especially of the poor in the vicinage. He received and accepted a call to Davenport, lowa, where his brother resided. He re mained there two or three years, and had conferred on him the degree of D. D., and was elected President of tiriswald College. From Davenport he removed to Chicago, to take charge of St. Paul's Church, a large and flourishing congregation, of which he yet remains Rector. Ile is a leading writer for the New York Independent, and is con sidered a lino theologian and an able pul pit orator. On the 2il of.lune, 1837, Dr. Bowman re ported to the vestry that after much in quiry, he had found a suitable person for Assistant Minister, in the Rev. Edw. W. Appleton, then recently graduated from the Theological Seminary at Alexandria, Va., to whom a call was at once extended and accepted. About this time the preliminary steps were being taken for establishing the "Yeates Institute," and arrangements were made by Dr. Bowman to secure the ser vices of Theo. A. Hopkins, then of St. Louis, to become Principal of the Institute, and also Rector of St. John's until such time as the Assistant Minister, Mr. Apple ton, could take entire charge. On the 25th of June, 1857, Dr. Bowman reported that Mr. Hopkins had resigned his charge in St. Louis, to take effect Sept. Ist., and lie was accordingly elected Rector from that date, the resignation of Dr. Bowman, ten dered some months before, having pre viously been accepted. St. John's was un der the joint pastorate of Revs. Hopkins and Appleton, until April 24th, 13.59, when Mr. Hopkins resigned, and Mr. Appleton was elected Rector. In the summer of ISA Dr. Bowman, still manifesting a lively interest in the welfare of the young parish, urged upon the vestry the importance of erecting a parsonage, ad joining the Church; and with his character istic liberality offered to pay one-tenth of the entire cost of the same. Subscriptions Wore started, a plan secured and the contract awarded to Mr. John Evans, and the hand some parsonage which now adorns the Church property is the result. Owing, to Unpaired health Mr. Appleton tendered his resignation on the 2-fill of May -1861,t0 take effect on the first ofJuly follow ing, and sailed for England on the 3d. On his return front Europe, he took charge of a church in Trenton, N. J., and after serv ing it some time, mule a .second voyage to Europe. Ile is at present Rector of a chunili at Chelton Hills, near Philadel phia. While in Lancaster Mr. Appleton was united in marriage with Sarah, daugh ter of George Louis Mayer, Esq. As a Pastor 110 was very popular, particularly with young people. During, his Pastorship he organized a I sung Men's Society, which numbered some two hundred members, who held regular meetings fir discussion and mental improvement. When the war broke out nearly all the members entered the army, many of them rising to official position—among whom may be mentioned Surgeon de W. Breniman, Chaplain Wash. Erben, and Captains I lucy, Marshall, and MeCaskey. On the 31st of July, 1001, Rev. Frs. 0. Hoskins, of Philadelphia, seas called to the Rectorship and entered upon hisduties the following month. During his pastorate the temporal concerns of the parish greatly prospered, and in his letter tendering his resignation on the 7th of March, 1504, he teas able to congratulate the Vestry mama fact, which was a great comfort to hint, that no debt any longer hung over them. The Church, Parsonage and grounds, with improvements, costing about $:13,00u, were all paid for, although there is perhaps less wealth in the congregation than in most others in the city. Mr. Hoskins on leaving this city removed to Honesdale, Pa., anti thence to Towanda, where he is now Rec tor of a flourishing charge. 'While in Lan caster he married Mary, daughter of Him. Thos. E. Franklin. on the 23d of April, 106-1, Rev. Thomas B. Barker, Assistant Minister at Grace Church, Philadelphia, received a unani mous call to the Free Church, which at the urgent solicitation of Bishop Potter he ac cepted. and entered upon the duties of his new charge on the 12th of June following, and has labored with great acceptability to the present time. He is a single man, but it is to be hoped that like his predecessors Revs. Colt, Powers, Appleton, and Hos kins, he may find amongst the fair daugh ters of Lancaster an help meet for him.— St John's Church will seat comfortably about 500 persons. Its present member ship numbers about 250. The Sunday School is in a flourishing condition, num bering about 250 scholars, under the super intendency of the pastor. The Sunday School Library numbers over a thousand volumes. We cannot close this sketch without a word or two of commendation to Mr. W. 0. Marshall, the leader of the Church choir, who from a very small beginning has built it up until it is now one of the best in the city, and contains a number of voiles of unusual sweetness and cultivation. The present Vestry consists of the follow ing gentleman : Isaac Diller and Henry P. Carson, Wardens; George J. Diller, Treas urer; J. M. W. Geist, Secretary; Henry E. Slaymaker, William U. Marshall, Jas. Thackara. For many material facts embodied in the foregoing sketch, vice arc indebted to Messrs. Isaac Diller, J. M. Wines Geist and W. 0. Marshall. SAD ACCIDENT AT Lfriz.—A correspond ent at Litiz informs us that "on Thursday afternoon at about 4 o'clock, as some work men were taking down in that village an old building in the rear of the dwelling of J no. S. Hacker, the east front, which had been temporarily supported with props, suddenly fell. 13efure Mr. Hacker could escape the being engaged in superintending the operation), he was caught beneath the (lilting wall and so severely injured that he died in the course of fifteen minutes. Richard Ochs, a boy of about 17 years of age, was also extricated from the ruins and escaped with a broken leg and some other slight injuries. 'This accident has cast a sudden gloom over our entire community. Mr. Hacker has been a resident of Litiz about a year, and was universally respect ed as one of our most estimable citizens." SERI , CSAcc[DENT.-Tuesday morning be tween 7 and s o'clock as two boys, named Henry Gallagher and Ifenry Keller, em ployees in the htqu i rer office, were ascend ing to the upper story of that establishment in the elevator, with about 250 pounds of straw-board and a heavy form of type, the rope used for hoisting it broke, amP pre cipitated them and their load front the fourth to the lower tloor, fracturing Keller 's right thigh, and severely spraining Gal lagher's foot and ankle. Keller is about 15 years old, and belongs to Lincoln, this county; he was taken to Iforting's Frank lin House, where he at once received sur gical treatment. Gallagher is IS, years of age ; his home is in Mt. Joy. Ile was taken to Yundt's Mack Horse Hotel. An examination of the elevator showed that the rough cast-iron wheel over which the rope runs, had frayed out one or more strands of the new hemp rope which had been placed over it, thus rendering it too weak to bear the six or seven hundred pounds it had to carry. FATAL Ace' nEsv.—On Tuesday morning, fl2d inst., Jacob Ranckvf Monterey, Upper Leacock township, met with an accident that will result in his death. He was assisting with his team in removing the family of Mr. John Hershberger from Monterey to Lancaster. Before starting, Mr. John Eby, a friend of his, requested hint to use one of his (Eby's) horses in the team. Ranck accordingly unhitched his own horse from the wagon and took it to the stable, and was shortly afterwards found lying there in an insensible condition, with his skull fractured. It was at first thought that he had been kicked by his horse, but a closer examination, and some incoherent utterances of the sufferer, seem ed to indicate that the horse, becoming scared at some chickens in the stable, had jumped back upon him as he was hanging up the saddle, and crushed his head against an octagonal post that stood immediately behind the horse. Last evening it was thought that Mr. Ranck could not survive many hours. FATAL ACCIDENT.-A correspondent in forms us that, on yesterday afternoon, a man walking on the railroad track between Christiana and Gap—name unknown—was struck by a freight train west, and almost instantly killed. He was walking on the south track and seeing a train coming east stepped over on the other track and was almost immediately struck by the train west, which he did not see. FATAL ACCIDENT.—The Oxford Press says that a little son of Albert Haines, of Fulton township, Lancaster county, died on the 9th inst., from the effects of a fall in the barn on the day previous. BUROLA.E.Y.—Mrs, Dr. James Rodgers Wis awakenel on Friday mommy about 2 o'clock, by three burglars who had forced an entrance into her residence, on Duke steet, below Chestnut. The burglars, on reaching her chamber tied her feet together, one of them holding a pistol to her head, and threatening to shoot her if she raised the least alarm. They then demanded her money, and on being told that they "must have mistaken the house, that she was not a rich woman," they answered that they "knew where they were, and would have her money." They then proceeded to ran sack the drawers and pigeon holes of a sec retary and book-case that were in the room, strewing papers and a great variety of other articles over the floor. They also thorough ly examined the beds anti bed-clothes in search of hidden wealth. They succeeded in getting about $lOO in money, besides two or three $5OO Government Bonds and Certificates of Deposit, amounting to about $1,500 more, with which they decamped. As soon as they had left, Mrs. Rodgers ran to the front second-story window and cried mur der, which attracted the attention of the private watchman who at once entered the vardo-and seeing a man escaping by the back gate tired two ineffective pistol shuts afftir him. - . On Saturday Alderman Fisher issued warrants for the arrest of Henry Hines and Frank Le Barron, or Le Frond, on evidence not yet made public, but deemed sufficient by the magistrate to implicate them in the burglary. The accused were arrested in South Queen street by Officers Flory and Fisher, and locked up in default of $2.,000 bail each, for a hearing on Monday after noon at '2 o'clock. Mrs. Hines offered to go her son's bail, but being a married wo man the Magistrate would not accept it.— None of the property was found on the per sons of the accused, nor did either of them have a cut hand. At the time of the burglary, there were no persons in the house except Mrs. Rodgers who is quite aged, and a female assistant who occupied an adjourning room. The assistant heard the burglars, but was afraid to leave her room to give the alarm. At a subsequent hearing on Monday atierboon Nimes and Le uaron were von, tted to answer at Court. SU LID EN DE.vrn.—At 7 o'clock on Friday evening Mrs. Thomas Coleman, of East Orange street, fell suddenly dead from heart disease in the office of Col. Fred. S. Pyfer, in South Duke street, whom she had visited for the purpose of transacting some legal business. Col. Pyfer was about light ing a lamp in the back office when she en tered the front. After the usual salutation, and the Colonel had asked her to be seated, she said, "I suppose you recognize me." The Colonel was about answering that he did not, when Mrs. Coleman stag gered and fell to the floor. the raised her and called for assistance, and then ran to Dr. Grove's office. In less than three minutes the doctor returned with hint, but life was probably extinct before they ar rived. As soon as it was ascertained who she was, tier family physician, Dr. Car penter, was also summoned, and arrived a few minutes later and pronounced her dead. The body was at once conveyed to the residence of her husband, who was at the time absent front the city, but returned on Saturday. Coroner Dysart summoned a jur, and held an inquest on the body, the jury returning a verdict of death frian heart disease. PAT.\ I, AlY't DENT.—A correspondent at Falmouth, l'nmov township, this county, writes that Mr. Henry Longenen her, of that township, met with an accident OR Tuesday, March 22d., which resulted in his death.

The unfortu nate man lingered in an unconscious state some tire hours after the accident when he died. NEW PAT ENT.—Alfred 13. She:lifer, of Ephrata, this county, has received letters patent dated March 22d, 1870, for a Hand Screw and Clip for Splicing - Broken Car riage Tires. This is one of the most com plete inventions in ease of an accident re mote from a blacksmith shop, when a tire breaks, as it can be firmly spliced by this clip in 0 few moments, and your journey re sumed without delay or further injury to the wheel or tire, and is in itself small enough to carry in your pocket without ineonv.mienee.

THE MASON AND HAMLIN ORGAN CO., have Just issued what they term a "Testimony Cir cular," which Is certainly a remarkable docu ment, presenting such an amount and charac ter of testimony to the superiority of their wares, as a manufacturer Is rarely able to col lect. It contains six :large newspaper pages, closely printed, and thus includes as much matter as an ordinary duodecimo volume. Nearly one thousand persons, most of them experts in the matter testify to the unequalled excellence of the Cabinet Organs made by this Company. The character of the testimony is, Indeed quite as remarkable as its quantity.
