It pre sents the blended aspect of, decided merit and marked defect, and will leave its readers to- the enjoyment of their several/vitriol:et as to the Campaigns and the Commanders of the Army of the Potomac. The history of that grand army 113, agreat poem in itself, and deserves to be faithfullypreserved with all the accurate thoughtfulness which"the historian can command. A careful perusal' of Mr. Swinton's boolr, leaves the'impresiion that while it is most valuable and deeply interesting as a narrative of the facts of the successive campaigns of that splendid army that bore the brunt of the war with such surprising pin& and gallantry, it is. far from reliable in its theories and judgmenti. Mr. Swinton's . unqualified faith in, the testimony of Lee and other rebel officers, frequently displays itself in quite an offen sive way. And this is the more remarkable from the fact that he, in at least one place, convicts Lee of falsehood in one of his offi cial despatches. In his account of Grant's final campaign, he treats the crossing of the army to the south side of Jetties river as an after-thought, forced upon General Grant by the stress of circumstances. Gene ral Grant has frequently asserted—and he certainly knows as much about it as Mr. Swinton does—that it was always contem plated as a probable feature of the campaign. There ib evidently a good deal of personal partiality in Mr. Swinton's judgment of va rious commanding officers. In many cases his analysis is clear and sound, butin others it is exaggerated and unfair. With all its defects however, this narrative of.the Army of the Potomac is invested with an absorb ing interest. The marches add counter marches, the battles and manoeuvres, the disappointments and defeats, and thecrown ing glories of victory follow each other with the charm of romance. It could be wished 'that its pages were not sullied with .a de fence Of Fitz-John Porter, or with its unne. ceesary laudations of leading traitors and rebels, but it is a most readable book, and until a better history of the Army of the Army of the Potomac is written, it will stand as the accepted, even if imperfect re cord of the deeds of the men who, more than all besides, suffered, endured, fought, died to save the Capital of the Nation and the life of the Republic.

To ascer6. the real origin of sudden deaths, an experi ment has been tried in Europe, and re ported to a scientific congress at Strasburg. Sixty-six cases of sudden death were made the subject of a thorough post-mortem ex amination; in these cases only two were found who died from disease of the heart Nine out of sixty-six had died from apo plexy, while there were forty-six cases of congestion of'the lungs—that is the lungs were so full of blood they cool of work, there not being room enough for a sufficient quantity of air to enter to support life. The causes that produce congestion of the lungs are: cold feet, tight clothin g, costive bowels, sitting still until chilled aftei being warmed with labor or a rapid walk, going too sud denly from rt close room into the air, espe cially after Speaking,and sudden,depressing news, operating upon the blood. These causes of sudden death being known, an •avoidance of them may serve to lengthen many valuable lives, which would other wise be lost under-the verdict of heart com plaint. That dieease is supposed to be in evitable and incurable; hence, many may not take the pains they would to avoid sad den, death, if tifey knew it lay in their power.

[From the Allentown Dally News.] FurSmartt to agreement, the Florence and Willcox & Gibbs'T agents met at Klinehs Hall, on Tuesday, June 26, at one o'clock P.M. By request, ,the. president of the meeting held a , week preVlous-_—Mr. E. D. Leisenring—took the chair.

McEfose as their judges, and the two then chosen selected B. D. Leimenring as their third judge. Aftera lengthy discussion, a modus operandi was adopted, the substance of which was that both machines shonld have their different _points of merit thoroughly and.practically tested. • The Florence side opened by claiming a superiority for their-lo ck:stitclu in contend ing against this the Willcox ez, Gibbs sewed a straight seam along a piece of cloth, and the Florence, with the same thread and on the same piece of, goods, sewed a parallel seam. A piece was then cut from this, about one inch' in width, and was •handed to the judges, who took hold and pulled. The Florence.seam gave way,chile the Wal e= & Gibbs heldfirm. The Florence side then contended thafit was never required for their :machines to sew such short lengths, and thereupon sewed another piece, and knotted the ends, when 'a general discussion took place. The Flor erice side refused to practkially teat the dif ferentpoints of the machines,l but, as it ap peared, wanted only to try their machine. NEW PUBLICATIONS. Carnies of Sizaden DCath.

Arrartvrowzr, June 27, AN. Ikailufacturtng Intemsts vs.. De licate To the Editor of the Evening Buttetin:-- I am glad to notice that in your paper of the 21st inst. you call attention to the very singular decision of Judo Read, declaring livery-stables, planing-mills, bolt-factoriet, and other similar establishments nuisaneei, as it is exciting much comment among manufacturers, who are fearful that ifinach a decision is confirmed,a blow vtillbestrach at the manufacturing prosperity of Thilti delphia from which it would be difficult to recover. eAlready,to the writer's own know:- ledge, in view of this decision, several part ies who were about erecting manufacturing establishments have stopped their proceed ings, and others have purchased property in Camden to erect their works on; for if a few of our rich citizens should choose to erect tine houses in their neighborhood, and then make complaint to Judge Read, he has al ready promised to "teach themthe law on this guesticna." Has it come to this, that the carpenter shops, the livery stables, the blacksmith shops, the printing offices, the bookbinders, the iron founders, the piano manufacturers, the furniture factories, the cotton and woolen mills, and all _Other similar estal;i lishments must give up their business, must sacrifice their property because the noise might annoy nervous people, or the smoke soil somebody's clothes. What are the poor who work in these place to do? Must all establishments be closed in which the mate rial used is liable to fire, because, should a fire occur it might damage surrounding pro perty. Judge Read says "as the city extends, such nuisances should be removed to the vacant ground beyond the immediate neigh.. borhood of the resid' enees .of the ! citizens ' but the Judge does nqt say that citizens b u ilding residencies have at equal right to erect their mansions at a distance from the establishments the noise and smoke from which are so very unpleasant to them. ... . Is the law thus laid down by Tfidge Real). ~to be applied to the City of Pittsburgh, or there one law for Philadelphia and as for-Pittsburgh, mai decision for estali menta in fashionable nelghborhooli d another for occupants of small tur-L...x id in neighborhoods not so aristocratic? - !These are- questions which the working public would like to have answered, and the sooner they are settled the better for all. - Another peculiar sentence in this decision is that aplaning Chill is - a nuisance, "no mat ter what improvements may be introduced." It follows if the mill be made fire-proof it is still a nuisance; if steam boilers are used it is a nuisance, because "there is danger from explosion of the engine boilers as well as danger of Are." If the noise is abated and the smoke con sumed, it is still a nuisance under this deci sion, "no matter what improvements may be introduced." Will you not give us your construction of this very interesting decision? Plain, blunt men, not versed in the law, are at a loss how to understand it, and conse quently how to act in their business. A NITFACTURER. The European War—Financial Condition of the Contestants. [Paris (June 14) correspondence of London Times.] A French financier and political econo mist has examined the financial position of the three Powers about to engage in war, and setting aside the advantage which each may derive from the gallantry of its army and the skill of its generals, he seeks out the one who shall be best served by its ma= terial resources. He begins with Prussia. whose finatees previous to Count • Bis marck's administration • were in excellent order. Her funded debt was only about 244,000,000, and her annual expenditure 2,24,000,000—0n1y the third of that of France. Count Bismarck, laowever, called five hun dred thousand men to arms, and all the savings of former Ministers have been ex pended. Confidence, moreover, is de stroyed, so that Prussian paper money is at a discount, and the Prussian Bank has found it necessary to raise its discount to 93- per cent. Turning to Austria; he says the financial, picture is very dark. Austria has not ceased to increase the deficiency in her budget during the last eighteen years, and to con- tract loan upon loan. Consequently her debt is increasing, and her credit is dimin= ishing in an equal pro Portion. The Austrian .debt is estimated at £240,000,000. The Ant trian Minister of Finance has increased all the taxes so as to arrive at a revenue of £40,000,000. The interest on. the debt ab— sorbs so much of the revenue that it will be impossible to maintain the.priisent standing army with the balance. Her bankruptcy is becoming imminent, but the loss will fall chiefly on Frankfort,-Abasterdam,Antwerp, :and Brussels, from which Austria -has de rived her supplies of money. Leaving the government of Francis Joseph, he arrived at that of Victor Eman uel. The Italian debt in 1860, _lifter the annexation of Tuscany' and the Marches, amounted to 2100,000,000. It has,been since doubled. The, Italian Rente was_quoted at &I in May, 1861; at'present it is quoted at 37. The Italian governnient has been con stantly increasing its' army since 1860 without engaging.. in war. It ,has, more over, contracted engagements with railway ., companies which amount to 22,000,000'a year. The two-thirds of these railways are completed, but their bonds have fallen cen siderably below par. The Italian govern ment has Just issued paper money, which, according,to the Finance, is a discount of twenty per cent. and according to the Semaine Financiers at eight. The truth Is that there is no fixed rate at which Italian paper money can be converted into gold. It is under these auspices that the Italian government is about to attack the Quadri lateral. • Tan GRASS CROP of Pennsylvania, as re presented in the accounts of the hay harvest, by our cotemporaries throughout the State, is the largest ever mowed.

The convoy was also taken to Camargo, under a double - _guard, with orders from General Escobedo not to allow anything to be touched. That order has created great dissatisfaction among the troops, who are eager to divide the spoils. News from the Monterey specie.train was received.

The Austrians fought bravely, firing forty-two rounds from artillery, and then using their , carbines, fiercely contesting every. inch Of ground. - They were com pelled - back, losing - their artillery. The Austrians fought like tigers, but the "Lap . adoras"'ran at first fire, • and were cep, tured with the ;Cassandros. After being surrounded, the Austrians surrendered and stacked their arms, notwithstanding which they Were-slaughtered - cold blood, the Liberal officers telling their men to kill them, but save the Mexicans. The result of the battle was assured as much from the defection of the Cerro Gordoans as froth any superior force or strategy: That bat talion, instead .of coming . to the aid of the Austriatt force, refused to move-the commanding officer telling .

Some days.afterwards a sample sheet was sent te . Unterholtz at the above address, but the messenger could not find him, or obtain any clue to his whereabouts. Mr. Hoppen heimex thereupon called at -the office of Messrs. Underwood, and exhibited the sample checks for Mr. Underwood's ap proval. The latter said that he had a Beth dent quantity of checks on hand and did not desire to purchase any more. Mr. Hop penheimer thereupon relatedni M. Under wood the facts in connection with the visit of Unterholtz and the Order for the oheeks. Mr. Underwood at once suspected that something was wrong, and had- an inte;- view 'with Captain Jourdan and Detective Hays, in which all the facts were placed in , possession of the officers. Soon after,'-.Cap tain Jourdan called on Mr. Hoppenhenner to obtain further information, and, w4ile in the office, Unterholtz entered- theokAce and desired to- be shown the proof -of the checks - he had ordered. the being shown one of the checks - Unterholli ;left the office, and -was followed by. Captain Jourdan and arrested. He was immedi ately taken to the station-house in Franklin street and placed in confinement in one of the cells there.< A day or two ago Captain Jetirdan learned that on the third of Feb ruary last a check drawn on the Merchants' National Bank of this city for X 89113• pur porting to have been signed by T. Zlzina, a merchant at 18 South. William street, and payable to "E. M., " or bearer, had been pre sented 'at the ban for payment, and the teller, - deeming the signature genuine, cashed the check. It subsequently turned out that the:check was a forgery. Oh inves tigatilm, it was discovered that the .blank check used for this forgery was one of p u lot printed at an establishmentcorner of Maidei . lane and William street, on an order left there by the accused, who was positively identified by the printer as the man who had oidered checks to be printed on the Mer chants' National Bank. It wasalso ascertained that at about the same time the Bank of the Repnblic had been swindled out of $7,000 by a forged check, and it is supposed by the same persons who had so .sues. •qsfally victimized the Mer chants' Bank. Unterholtz was taken before Justice Ho gan, at the. Toombs Police Court, and was committed for examination, which is set down for to-day. It is reported that a large numberof bank ers have been victimized by a gang of for gers, of whom Unterholtz is alleged to be the principal. Passage of Sentence of Death on the Mur derer of the Roosa .ramity. [From the Cincinnati Enquirer.) On yesterday afternoon the unhappy con- . victavas brought from his cell by the sheriff into the courtroom to receive his sentence. The court-room:was .crowded tky an, anxious people to hear the fate of him *ho had com mitted in their midst one of the most dia bolical murders on record. The prisoner sat on his seat perfectly, collected, and de fiantly gazing and smiling around the court room, as though he were invited to a mar riage feast. Tie did not seem to realize that in a few minutes his day and date of death as 'an expiation for a wholesale murder would be pronounced, or if he did realize the fact, it seemed that he-was daring' the fiats of justice in the dread ceremony about to be performed. As the clock tolled the hotir of one, Samuel Coovert was directed lloy the Court to stand up. The Judge ad dressing him, said: • "Sardnel Convert,. have you anything to say, why the sentence of death should not be pronounced upon you?" Qoovert replied, laughingly, that he- had nothing more , to-say, except that he was in nocent of • the - murder of the Ram of which he had been convicted. - The Judge then reviewed, briefly the dreadful crime for the commission of which be stood convicted, and then sentenced him to be taken from thence to the jail of, the county and kept in close confinement until Friday, the 24th day of August, 1868, when he should be taken to the place of execu tion; and, between the hours.of ninh o'clock in the morning and three o'clock in- the af ternoon, he should be - hanged by the neck until he was dead.. Coovert received the sentence -without changing a muscle, and upon taking his seat looked round uponthe audience and at tendants of the Court and smiled,• in a few .minutes be was removed to' the jail, where he will remain until brought out for execu tion.
