FOR CONGRESS, Frank C. Bunnell, OF WrOMMG COL'N'IT Mr ELECTION NEXT TIES DAY,-DECEMBER 24. CON GRESSIONAL. F.,,0. BUNNELL, esq„_ of Tunkhan flock, is the Republican candidate for Congress, to fill the unexpired 'term of Judge lantern. Mr. Burxxr.L.L is one of the most promising young men in the District, and was very unanimously presented by Wyoming county for nomination for the 43d Congress. If elected, as we doubt not he will be, the people of the District will never have reason to regret their choice. While Mr. B. is one of the most sagacious and successful business .men and con sistent Republicans in his county,his urbane manners and correct- deport ,. meat make him a general with- all parties, and ha will the largest vote ever given a didate, if the voters are otit. Ho is .entitled to, and we s trust will receive the rotes of publicans in this county. We are aware that the candidate of the op position will make strong appeals for support on personal grounds, but we are unable to discern any good rea son why, Col. PIOLLET should be sup ported by a single Republican in this District. Mr. Bm . E.L has yielded a hearty and effective 'support to the candidates of the Republican party ever since he became a voter, and now asks the support of his fello Republicans for the first.time, and? is opposed by a life-long and nn= scrupulous ..enemy, not only of- the principles every Republican holds dear, bnt of every prominent man in the party.. Besides -he is a supreme ly, selfish and tyranical partisan, al ways ruling ' his followers with an iron rod when his selfish purposes are opposed ' tkir The death - of HOatCE GREELEY has occasioned world-wide notice, - and filled the newspapers of the country with criticisms upon his life and char acter. We are pleased to seo that in the ,main these publications are testimonials to his talents and virtues. The :distressing circumstances at tending the death of the distinguish ed journalist has had the effect to arouse the sympathies of the public and his .cotemporaries, and they have entirely overlooked his many foibles and weaknesses, or have dealt very gently_ with them. Even the great mistake of his life, has been kindly ignored, as hawing, probably; been the immediate cause of his un timely decease, The mantle of chari ty has been wrapped around the bier of the great journalist, - the acerdities of political campaigns for gotten, or forgiven, and sympathy and condolence extended to those who mourned with the sorrow of accumulated afflictions. If !anYthing has occurred to mar the harniony of this disposition to accord a full measure of justice to the merits, of the dead, it has been the haste and indecent zeal of !the Tribune, and some of the men INiiose ill-advised action lid :forced Mr. GREELEY into the position of: alcan didate for the Presidency, aptaon istical to the party and principles of his later years, to demand at the hands of the public and the press an acknowledement not only of his abil ities and his integrity, but of the en tire wisdom and propriety of- Lis po litical'actiou, during the past year. It has seemed to us, that the Tribune Was more desirous of using Mr. GREELEy's death as a means cif re gaining public confidence,and of res toration to , its former standing through sympathy, than of doing justice to Mr., GREELEY'S virtues, or mourning sincerely and feelin i gly at his grave. Many of the ni+ wbo are responsible: for Mr. GRE.ELEVB death, hat e evinced a dispositionko claim that their political treachery should be covered by that, display of charity and forbearance which has put out of sight all that there was weak or objectionable!in the character of the deceased, and so apparent has been - their attempt that their display of mourning has been offensive. This class has been partic ularly abusive of Senator CAMERON for not allowing- Messrs. FENTON and SUMNER to t.ke ,up the time of the U. S. Senate with extended and ful some eulogies, intended not so much as a tribute to the memory of N.Lr. Gur.tn.xy, as n 'apology for their own defections. 'Such men would gladly bury in the grave of Mr. GREELEY all their political follies and sins, and they have made au unseemly display of mourning;; that the f rbearance and charity` exercised tel* , ds the deceased editor might be made to 'cloak and hide out of sight their iniquities.' sea. The House, on Thursday. laht, passed a soldiers' bounty land bill,by a , vote of 116 to 55, to give to every officer and private soldier and sailor of the late war, or their widoss and minor children, the right to enter one hundred and Eisty acres of government land, and to receive 'certificate of such entry without the payment of government fees. - Such entry mac be; made in the name of the mr. ,, ou entitled or by• his or her • , Tarsier such regdatio%.s as the th , ,t int4:l-ior pre Sc. s or transfer of the can in made prior to such entry. Our candidate for Congress was in the South fighting for his countryi while his opponent was in Chicago helping - to pass resolutions declaring the war's failure. Which is entitled to your support-? A MAMMOTH BA'fiTE. A banking sebeme, to be operated on the most extraordinary scale, bas reetCntly been brought into public no- tice by the Hon. Mr. WHEELICV, mem ber of Congress from New York, who has introduced a bill into , that body " to incorporate the goiernor and managers 'of the Exchequer of the Kited States of America." The capital is to be $100,000,000,in shares of $l,OOO. Subscriptions are yraya : , blp three-fourths in legal tender notes and the remainder in gold coin. Not less than three-fourths of the capital' must at all times be held by citizens of the United States. To' insure the formation of -the corporation it is provided that if after ateren timC l the whole capital is not subscribed,' any national bank now existing may subscribe upon the same terms, the whole or any part of the capital, and consolidate and become merged into this corporation; provided that it hereby abandons - its present organi zation and its owners accept, in lieu of their present shares in any sach bank, shares in this corporation of equal value ; but no bank now exist ing can exercise this privilegc.with o t the concurrence and approval of the proprietois and of the governor and managers of the Echequer of the United States. If more - than 100,- 000 shares are subcribed upon the terms ruttitione.l abo've, the shares will be divided pro rata amons the subscribers. The central, office i§ to bb in New York. ; and branch offices are to be established in the fifteen largest , .cities of ' the country. The proprietors are to choose the man agers for all thc c flices. Section. 6 provides_ that the evaporation shall be divided into tw , ) departments— one for Nankin,;, a:dl the other to consist Of thrco commissioners for each Office, appointe-1 respectfully by he President, the G ,, vernor of the State, and the tuattr,gi r of the office.

VW' The Southern Claiins Com mission to investigate the losses dur ing the war, for which the Govern ment. is held responsible, in their re port to Congress cover some 2,200 caseg, in which the amount claimed is nearly thirty - -five millions, and the amount allowed but nine hun dred thousand dollars. The exces sive ratio of rejections to allowance is in part due to the fact that both large and small claims are some times found to be wholly fictitious, or frandal , 4ttly exaggerated ; while claimants are now, , put forwiird as loyal, who, iu ISGO and 1801, used Juice, vote_and influence to carry their States for secession, took ac tive parts in the intimidation and expulsion of Union men, raised or aided in the eqUipment of companies for the Southern. army, and served and supported the Confederacy in various capacities : as long as it last ed. The Commission have about fifteen thousand claims yet to decide and report, in which the dispropor tion between the. amounts claimed and allowed is expected to b.c as great, and probably greater:. °M. A. Wisconsin' court has just even a decision which reaffirms the familiar truth that it takes two to make a bargain. Snit was brought a,gaiirst the Union Telegraph Com pany to recover dana'ages for ,the de lay in delivering a message ordering a New York broker to buy for the sender 250 shares of railroad stock. The message was filed in the tele graph office at nine o'clock in the. evening, and was not delivered until half-past one the next afternoon. Meanwhile the stock had advanced two dollars a share, and the court assessed this $5OO advance on the 250 shares upon the telegraph com pany. The company put in, in de fence,'- the conditions stated on the telegraphic blank, but the court de cided, as has been so often decided in . reference to railroad tickets, that printed conditioni did not constitute a.contract or relieve full responsibili ty for rendering - the services which had been paid for. , iipir It is ascertained that 3lr eriELEY ni2de four wills durifig his lifetime. In 1861 he drew the first. In that he made ample provision for his f.ither, brother and nephew. He also made handsome bequests to sev eral charitable institutions . . In 1863 he made another will. In that ho made 1-daiilar provision for his father i}nd brother, but gave Jess fp public institutions. In the third will—that of 1871—it is seen that he gave still less to the institutions, but made provision for his brother and nephew Taking the spirit of the first three wills, the contestants make the point of insanity in the s making of the fourth, by which Mr. GE.FrirrY gave all his property to his daughters. to.,DON'T NEGLECT TO VOTE FOR THE YOUNG PATRIOT, FRANK C.

One of,the gieatest evils . incident to a political canvass is ; the indulg ence in personal abuse 'and detrac tion of rival candidates. The one just 'closed was not fTee from it, al though the chaiactei's of the two candidates :were above reproach. It is natural that men should differ in their views in regard to the manage ment of the political affairs of the country, but it is a shame and dis grace to 'our nationality that , when good men are nominated for office, those who are opposed to them po:- litically must set to Work to blacken their characters and attribute to them every species of dishonesty. We hope the time is not - far distant when such things will not be toler ated. The. following letter from. Mr. GREZLEY'S nearest political friend written to the President, , shows that no personal hostility is entertained by those who supported the great journalist during the late cam paign toward his successful rival. The ,letter does credit to the head and heart of its author, and is a high compliment to his Excellency: AN OPEN LETTED. To the l'roident of the rated &ales Sir : I trust that I shall not be charged with presumtion in address ing you on .the subject of this letter. I want to thank you, not for any fa vor bestowed on my friends, or shown -to me.. Thanks !for such things are as common aathe benefits they-confer. I desire to thank you for something greater and better than these ; for something much be yond the ordinary practice of high official life. I desire to thank you for the respect ehoWn by you to Mr. Greeley on his death-bed, and for the-great respect you paid his char acter itnd memory, -- by your attend ance at his funeral. It was a great compliment .for the, head of a great nation to decline attendance on an ofhCial festivity while a privaterciti: zen was dying, a citizen, who had no claims on the syMpathy of the offi cial, either of blood or close friend ship. It,was a much greater com plinient when: that Executive laid aside the preSsing duties of his great 'office, and, making a night journey Of hundreds of miles, at an inclement season, took the place of a priv a te person, among the thousands gath ered together, to pay the last tribute of respect that the living can pay to the dead. For your remembrance of Mr. Greeley, dying; for-your attend ance.at his funeral ; for the• tearful attention you NIA to the sad .cere monies of that occasion, Mr. Presi dent, I thank You with all earnest ness. lam very.sare that doing go I but echo tie sentiinelit of hun dreds, of thousands of your fellow citizens, whose views of public affairs lad them mid myself to support, ini the late canvass, the man to whoni you Lave shown such high re pact. By these acts you have removed prejudices, changed opponents into friends, -and shown to the world that great official life, need not deade.o the better instimats of our conamon'lmmanity. By these acts you have taught the nations, that Aineri‘_iiis never forget what is due to the char serer of their great citi zens, and that the passions of an em- Citing political contest ii over destroy the respect that American partizan opponents have for the good lives of good men. c I thank you, Mr. President, and liray that a long ai,id happy -life may await you. And when it Alait please the Great Ruler to Sand the angel-of Death to call you hence, •may your passage to the tunib lie made smooth by the affections of kind friends, and the grave close over you. with the heartfelt prayers of your country - men for your eternal rest. Very respect fully, your friend, • SiNCL AIR TorsE Nor I'''.. her. 6, IS7II. A Spa:suns. —A;A gallant gentk-man has just died in the neigh borhood of Troy, N. Y.

LITTER FROM NEW YORK. We are haiing horrors and excitements enough at present, to have hated our fathers a year. In the old steady days of stage. coaches, when rails and telegraphs were not, thebuns lug of a theatre in Riclimend.furnished " rible "-enough for steel dissertations on l' r the "awful calamity.' Nowadays it takes some thing very excruciating in its (retails to gut up even a npple. Within a few days wo have bad hero several murders, and only the other day the splendid- sth Avenue Hotel took ilre:and eleven poor servants girls lost their livei ' ' :The neglect of the authorities b execute the law in the many criminal cases which come be fore our courts is fast begetting a feeling of in• security among the people which may lead to the application of some Vigilance Committee 10 Justice. Not only in deeds of violence and blood, but also in a continuation of the old rascalities of the Hingsewhic4 fastened like incubi upon us, are we having a full supply. To-day a most shame fal expose of robbery has come to light in the matter of • street opening._ The wommiaition era appointed. to assess the ctaniages for open ing Avenues made a report and filed a bill of their own expenses, not by any means the cost of opening the Avenues, bat only the cost of finding out how much it would cost to do the work. Some friend of reform 14PPened to be. Ina position to know something about the mat er, and through thepress called publics atten tion to the swindling bill. The committee asked only the mudeit little sum of for their ex penses andeomponsation ; after the matter had been made public, they had a hasty consulta tion and reduced theii bill $51,000. Evidently they would have stolett the 151,000 if they had not been exposed Jest in time. The utter do' moralization of those who have controlled coni city politics can hardly be estimated in a com • munity'where if a public officer were to wrong fully use t paltry thousand dollars, he would be held up to universal execration. But I think that we have now some men iu power, ur-alxint t come in power, who will du what they can to check this indiscriminab3 plundering of the people of this city. And now we are t-; bare the humiliating spco taele24 a quarrel over thew 11 of EiOIIACE G!tICZ. LEY.

The fire was discovered by one of the guests on the second floor in, the stairway and elevator leading from the laundry to the servants' apartments in the top of the e build ing on the Twenty-third street side. A large steam pipe, nearly fill; inch es in' diameter, for heating purposes, had rendered the woodwork so in flammable that it fell an easy prey to the fire, and aeif through a fun nel the flames shot with astonishing rapidity to the servants' department Ckir-the seventh floor. • There are 400 assistants, of all kinds in' the hotel, and of these fully 160 'arc women- The alarm was immediately and the app!iances for extinguishing the flames, with which the hotel was well provided, were brbug,ht into use, but the efforts of the employes were of Teo avail iu checking the flames. Af ter some delay the alarm vas given, and the Fire Department Acre soon on the ground. In the meantime the panic-stricken guests had been aroused, and thronged the halls, while from the servants' apartments non cut off by the flames, the roost agonizing shrieks came. To the ef forts of the iireinen he fire s('ma• soon succumbed. As seen as it was possible the fire men made their way into the servants apartments, where a most shocking sight awaited them. Revealed by the lanterns there were seen in ons postures and horribly disfigur ed and distorted by the flames, the bodies of eleven girir. As first re ported, tire number was much, larger, Thar. any other establishment in the even as high as twenty-twe, but thus far only eleven bodies have been found and taken to the morgue. Some of the bodies were found lying pia the beds,cbut a.majority were ly ing on the floors, near the doors and windows,.which latter were covered ,with a.strong network of heavy wire which prevented the escape of those -who aonght egress in• this direction. So strong were these barriers that ,considerable effort on the part of the firemen was necessary for their re moval. Two of the bodies were lock ed in each other's embrace, and their flesh had been literally roasted: Mar garet Fagan, one of the hotel ser vants, was, however, found terribly burned about the head and body in her bed room, adjoining the elevator on the top; floor of the building. There were six hundred and fifty guests in the house, none of whom were injured tie If COL PIOLLET bad chosen to do so-he might have arranged the track of the Railroad on the opposite side of the river, so that farmers and others on the east side of the river could reach the bridge without run ning the risk of being thrown into the river by the cars. ear TWEIED, the great robber, out of *hose pilferings the Democratic party of the country, from 1860 to the time he was pnt ont 'of office, received the meAns to codnct its campaigns, is to be brought to 4411 ELAIti Fulia4sr, the gTat actor, died in Philadelphia ou Tharp day lest. 3P1::M!0, After our local page was on the press last evening, a fire broke out in the large' stable of Mix & Mos- TArlt, on the Northern Liberties. The firemen were promptly on the ground, but the rn building was des troyed before the steamers got to work, they having to take water !rout the river,ta long ,! distance off. The Naiad's ,did as good service ea possi ble from a cistern in the immediate neighborhood of the fire. Mr. 4,- eaa's house, just north of the barn, was saved, although it seemed in minent danger at one time. . The origin of the fire is unknown, but from the fact that it was first discovered in the hay, it is believed to have been the • work of an incen diary. • A quantity of household goods, owned by Mrs. AMER D.
