Facts and Fancies.
The conductors of the Concord, N. Fig
railroad have come to grief. A detective
employed by the directors discovered 'that
they did not account for all the money they
received from passengers. That is tue
"fact." The "fancy' consists in any one
" : ,,thinking it worth while to mention such an
eccurrence.
Letters are being received from some of
,the young ladies who went south to teach
"the freedmen, saying that they will return
hoine as 'soon as their engagements will
permit. Just , what we supposed. Our
charming young Northerne.sses are sure'
to be engaged before they have been long at
the South.
At Hooksett 3 . 1 N.H on the 12th inst., the
twenty-fifth anniversary of the marriage of
Mr. Thomas N. Head and Miss Marietta
Dennison, who are deaf mutes, was duly
celebrated by a large company of their
friends. It is positively asserted that during
the long twenty-five years. of wedded bliss
neither has spoken an unkind word to the
other. Their motto is, "Dum vivimus viva
.
271,249."
In the debate on the appropriation for
refurnishing the President's house, Mr.
Stevens said .that after the death of Mr.
Lincoln, nearly every valuable article had
been stolen, including the gold spoons
bought when Van Buren was President.
There was not furniture enough even for
the comfort of Mr. Johnson when he came
We should imagine not. If everything
was stolen, what was left could not have
given Mr. Johnson mush comfort.
At a recent anti-liquor meeting in Boston,
Rev. Edward Everett Hale said he did not
know of hardly a family of size that did not
have, to use the familiar phrase, a "skele
ton in.tbe home," in the shape of one or
more of its Members ruined through temp
talon, tiy f the absolutely free exposure of
liquor for sale. He might have added that
the size of most &rallies, at least the female
portion of them, depends on the number
and dimensions of their "skeletons."
There was an exchange of poultry be
tween the two Spanish frigates at New
York, on Saturday. Each got a fowl of the
other.
We saw a school circular, the other day,
in which the following fine gashbf rhetoric,
(italics included) occurs: 'Cavillers may
just as reasonably expect to satisfy a soar
ing
bird with the limits of a wingless one, as
toinduce me to follow any customs which
check my honest aspirations." Somebody
hasbeen 'TT that party "an old apteryx"
we expect.
"Oh, rum ning stream ! Oh, sparkling word!
To be a soaring, human bad."
AffIIISEXIENTS.
Tam WALrarr.—Clarke begins his fifth
week this evening, appearing in his unri
valled characters of Major de Boots, in
"Everybody's Friend," and Newman
Noggs, in "Nicholas Nickleby." A new
American play called "The Member from
Pike," written for Mr. Clarke, will shortly
be produced. It is said to be a very lively
comedy and great pains and expense will
be bestowed on it.
THE AHCH.—"Sam" will be the attraction
this week, with Chanfrau, Paraloe, De
Walden. and Miss Logan in the main parts.
The lovers of - comedy
. will have their fill
.with "Sam," as it is in five acts and com
prises the entire entertainment of the even
ing. Seats can be secured for any night
this week.
THE CHESTNUT.—The attraction at the
Chestnut this week will be the "Ice Witch,
or the Sea King's Bride," a grand spectacu
lar drama which has not been played here
for many years. As a spectacle, it IS not in
ferior to the "Naiad Queen." The' story
goes back to the legendary lore of the Norse
men, and involves their mythological cha
racters. Mr. G. H. Clarke enacts the lead
ing character of Harold, the Sea King; Miss
Orton that of the heroine, Minim; Mr. Len
nox sustains the comic part of Magnus
Sweno; Mrs. Reach is the Ice Witch, Druda;
and Miss Cooper appears as the Lady Ulla.
The antagonistic immortals are Drada, the
Ice Witch, and Freyr, the Sue God, and
although most of the display scenes derive
their beauty from the fantastic glitter of the
ice, the final scene is an Arcadian sunset
and the aerial realms of the sun god. In
this drama the effects' are all novel and in
genious, and though the story is very wild
and fanciful, it preserves the interest and
attention of an audience throughout. It
introduces us to an imaginary world, and
therefore, of course, there are magical
transformations and , strange doings. The
meads lof 'Valhalla, the palace of the Ice
Witch, temple of the war god, Odin, the
frozen sea, cavern of Hecla, with her and
her spirits descending on a revolving column
of ice—these are some of the scenes of the
drama. We cannot doubt that, with the
cost that Manager Sinn has lavished on it,
it will be remarkably successful.
AMERlCAN.—Wallett's last week
commences this evening. The attractions
will be varied and popular this week.
THE SWISS BELL RINGERS, we are glad
to learn, will remain at Assembly Build
ings during the present week. They will
present new programmes.
AN ATTRACTIVE COMBINATIO4.-OR the
22d. Mr. S. K. Murdoch will give patriotic
readings at Assembly Buildings, and the
Peak Family will present one of their finest
programmes, as will be seen by the adver
tisement.
MR. GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN lectures on
England and FerAgnism, to-morrow night,
at the Academy of Music. He will have an
overflowing house.
GERMAN OPERA.—The opera season opens
on the 26th inst.
SIGNOR BLITZ gives his exhibitions every
evening, and on Wednesday and Saturday
afternoons.
BITUMINOUS COAL IN PENNSYLVANIA.-
Says the Pittsburgh _Despatch ; The State
of Pennsylvania is by far the largest pro
ducer of both anthracite and bituminous
Coals in the United States. The coal mining
establishments of Pennsylvania, in 1860,
numbered 310, employing a capital of
$17,602,030 and producing $14,746,153. The
number of hands employed was 29,777 and
their annual labor cost $1,213,496. Allegheny
county returned 54 mining establishments,
with a capital of $1,800,000, employing 3,000
hands, and returned nearly two millions of
dollars as an annual product. The extent
of the coal field surrounding Pitts
burgh has been estimated at 15,000 square
miles or 8 2 000,000 acres. The upper seam
alone of this area is estimated to contain
1,498,464,000,000 bushels, or 5%516,480,000
tons of coal. Exclusive of a large amount of
coal which goes to market by way of the
Monongahela river, the Pittsburgh and
Connelsville Railroad alone carried princi
pally to the home market, in 1864, 3,664,892
bushels, or 130,089 tons. The whole number
of collieries tributary to the furnaces, forges,
loundries,- rolling mills, machine shops,
'glassworks, cotton mills, flouring ming,
dre; and to the commerce of Pittsburgh-.
number at the present time one hundred
and three, employing 6,424 hands, and re
quiring for transportation 21,258 cars, be-
aides boats, barges, &c. Averaging the
price of coal consumed at Pittsburgh at
twelve cents: a, bashel, and of that exported
at twenty cents, the value of the coal trade
Of this city for 1864, would amount to about
$9,000;000, a value eiceeding the total pro
duct of bituminous coal returned in 1860 for
the whole Union.,
Barite ST9PRED.—The Rochester Union
says: The 'in - the Niagara river, di
frectly Opposite the Cataract House; are
hardly covered by water at the present time,
in consequence of an ice jam having formed
above, causing the water to run close to the
Canada shore. The like was never known,

nation of Gen. John W. Geary, for Gover
nor of the Commonwealth, was held on
Saturday evening, at the County Court

ing-, s
.
Resolved, That we cordially recommend
the selection of General Geary, not only be
cause his bright record and irreproachable
name would give an easy victory, but be
cause our knowledge of him as a firm
patriot, an able and tried statesman, and a
gallant soldier, justifies us in believing that•
he will reflect credit upon the high position
to which his fellow-citizens would exalt
him, and more especially because we know
his dearest aim will be to secure to us, to
posterity, and to liberty the rich fruits of
the contest from which we have just
emerged.
Addresses were delivered by Capt. A. M.
K. Storrie, Col. John K. Murphy, Col.

THE LINCOLN INSTITUTE.—The following
letter has been received, by one of the
managers,- from the Chairman of the
Christian Commission, showing his sym
pathy in this undertaking :
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 16,:1866.—My Dear
Friend: lam rejoiced to see that the spirit
of thankfulness fbr the happy results of our
four years of war and suffering is about to
be shown in a substantial and permanent
way, in this city, by the establishment of a
home for the. Orphans of the Soldiers and
Sailors who perished during that great
struggle. I think the Ladies deserve much
credit for their promptness, in endeavoring.
at once, to meet- this urgent demand, and I
_feel sure that all who can will rejoice in
baying the opportunity of assisting in this
most laudable and patriotic work, and I
hope the "Lincoln Institute, or Soldiers'
and Sailors' Orphan Boys' Home," will
soon be fully established as a permanent
monument of gratitude of our citizens for
the mercies we have received, and as a tes
timony of honor to the brave fathers of these
Orphan Boys.

FREEDMEN'S AID NESTING.-A union
meeting of the friends of the religious edu
cation ofithe freedmen,under the auspices of
the General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church, was held last evening in the West
Arch Street Presbyterian Church,southwest
corner of Eighteenth and Arch streets.
Notwithstanding the unpleasant weather a
goodly number of both ladies and gentle
men were present. The meeting was pre

singing and prayer, the audience was ad
dressed at length by Rev. S. C. Logan, of
Pittsburgh. Secretary of the Committee.
There are now upon lists of the Committee
the names of fifty-seven Africans, who are
commissioned to teach their freed brethren,
but cannot be sent out for the want of the
necessary funds: The Committee has been
at an outlay of three thousand dollars per
month, and they want sixty thousand dol
lars the present year to carryout their great
work of educating those people. The great
mass of the contributions thus far have come
from the cities and towns west of the Al

churches of Philadelphia have given but
three hundred dollars.

held last evening at the North Broad Street

THE DLSPENSARY.—The citizens of Cam
den have for a number of years past felt
the great disadvantage arising from the
want of a dispensary, and have urgell upon
Council and capitsMqta the necesilty of
building one. At last. this want is to be
supplied. Messrs. McKeen and 4rrison
.have purchased the house and lot of ground
formerly occupied by the Perseverance
Hose Company, and will commence at once
the work of establishing the proposed dis
pensary. The building will be enlarged
and improved, and everything will be added
which is wanting to make it complete.
These gentlemen have in their possession
some 85,000 which they were instrueted by
the contributors to appropriate to this pur
pose, and which will serve as a basis to
work upon. The citizens will also exhibit
their usual liberality in works of philan
thropy, by extending to this humane enter
prise their encouragement and sLpport.
Hundreds of cases occur every year de
manding such an institution : and in case the
cholera happens to reach us, its conveniences
will be recognized. The physioituasl
com
posing the medical faculty of Camden, have
volunteered to give their services . on alter
nate weeks, and thus encourage the 'brma
tion of this dispensary. Messrs. M Keen
and Garrison have cutered into this move
ment with a zeal and energy which cannot
fail to make It a complete success. I
Cauncn AFFAlRs.—Yesterday morning
the Rev. Mr. Davies, pastor of the Taber
nacle Baptist Church, extended the right
band of fellowship to sixteen new members.
In the evening six more were baptized. The
revival meetings are still continued with
the most happy results.
• The Third Street Methodist Eplcopal
Church, under the pastoral charge of the
Rev. Mr. Vansant, is making weekly addi
tions to the congregation. A series o revi
val meetings are ix progress.
The First Baptist' Church, Rev. Mr. Rose,
Pastor, is giving evidence of an awakened
interest, and the rospects of a large in
crease is very encouraging. 1
The First Presbyterian Church, "ander
the pastoral charge of the Rev. Dr. Reed, is
in a most flourishing condition: The I rapid
growth of the congregation has already
suggested the propriety of erecting 'a new
building of larger dimensions. I
The audience room of the North Camden
