Though our public baa, of late years, been fevored with various series of delightful chamber con certs in which the sonatas, trioß-aHdquar tettes of the older masters have been illus trated with a degree of virtuosity which would justify our congratulating ourselves upon the si ill of our leading artists, there has been no sustained attempt to produce the symphonies and other important orchestral works in their completeness. There have, it is true, been'occasional con certs in which a symphony has been per formed, but in the absence of regular or ganizations, having for their chief object the production of just suchworks, we have had hut few opportunities of hearing perfor mances with the like of which New York and Boston are frequently favored. The Chamber concerts, to which we have already referred, have done their share in educating our public in this regard. Com positions which, a few years ago, would have drawn but thin audiences, now attract attentive crowds. The artist is enoouraged by the fact that his constituency hss so in creased that its festhetic wants are reflected by a more*extended circle; and being thus encouraged, he feds Impelled to greater efforts than before. An instance in point has lately come under our notice, in the case of a musical undertaking which we are about to introduce to our readers. > Messrs, Jarvis'add ’Schmitz,: impressed with the belief that a series of symphony concerts would 'find favor with Philadel- Phians, boldly made their .preparations for a seasonof three performances, to be given during the winter) ‘ What at first, to their lees enthusiastic friends, seemed a mere venture, has.met with most gratifying sup port. Although they have not, as yet, ad vertised these concerts, their’ subscription lists arealready so well filled as to guaran tee the success of their laudable under taking. . oc3o-3t{ Italian Opera.— The opera of L'Etoile du Lord was repeated last evening'at the Academy, to a delighted audience.

THE FENIAN TRIALS. :Tlie Case of Lynch HIS CONVICTION. Full Report of His .Speech and the Death Sentence. ■: We have published an. account ©f the con viction and death sentence of Lynch, the Fenian, hut add” the following account of fhe final.scene ofthe trial. - It is from the Toronto Globe, of the 26th: ' A.t, twenty-five minutes to six the jury returned into Court; and the roll'having been called by the Clerk, he inquired—Gen tlemen of the Jury,have you agreed on your verdict ? ■ The Foremen—The Jury have come to .the conclusion that the prisoner is Guilty. ! The clerk bayingrecorded the verdict; : The Solicitor General arose’ and said—l move, my lord,for the judgment of the Court on thepnsoner, His Lord ship—Robert B. lynch,have you anything to say why the sentence of the Court should not be pronounced on you for this felony ? . Prisoner's Address. The prisoner, with afirm voice, replied as follows: Well, my lord, you must be aware :—you must have noticed—the inconvenience and disadvantage my counsel labored under in not being able to bring forward' the evi denceof those who oould have proved clearly that I had no connection with the Fenian raids. I state now that I had neither hand, act nor partin the late invasion, and that I came to hot in .the capacity in which ithaßfaeen represented! came, but simply the correspondent of a public journal.- Andin so doing I was not aware that I violated either the laws of Canada cr those of my adopted country. I was not aware that there could i he any objection to a reporter following the ■ army and chronicling the incidents and progress ofthe invasion. Had I known this; . I would have been careful tohave remained on the other side. With regard to the man ner in which the Crown has conducted the . prosecution in my case, I think and most , confess that I have been very fairly dealt with. Both the Crown Solicitor and Mr. ! Cameron hate carried oh the prosecution in the most fair, and impartial maimer, and I feel that it is but right in me to make the statement. - - His Lord ah ip—The object in asking you to address the Court was to give you an op portunity of urging any legal objections, if ‘you had them. - It is too late how to discuss jthe facts of the case. i Prisoner—Well, my lord, you must be aware with regard to legal objections, that lam not cognizant enough of law to make ;any. I only know that I am innooent of ;the crime charged against me, and of which I have been found guilty. And I here pledge myself before that God in whose pre sence I must, appear some day, that lam wholly innocent of the crimes for which I was brought here; and that I never saw Stevens till I was arrested and brought Into his very house on the 2d of June. On that occasion I saw him, when placed in' his house, fora short time previous to being brought up to the Court House. The Crier then made the usual proclama ion, prior to passing sentence of death. Sentence of Death. ; His Lordship, addressing the prisoner, said—l am very sorry todind a man of yonr age and experience stand where you do to day. You are a man who most have seen a good deal of the world—a man not without education and intelligence. The evidence brought before me Court is perfectly clear and conclusive mat you were not in Canada as a reporter on the occasions charged in the indictment; hut that yon were armed and in some kind of command. What mat was does not distinctly appear. But even though you were only as a reporter, you onght to have known that no war had been proclaimed; mat those men with /whom you were seen were making an atrocious,' almost unparal leled, inroad on a peaceful country, and that under me circumstances you were there to report me ravages of these men to fathers interested, in order they they might gloat and glory over the slain. While a siDgle word would have influenced the case to your prejudice, I carefully abstained from saying anything against you. But now it does not lie on me to extenuate your fault, or affect not to see it in the darkest light. You professed,with others, toredress the grievances Of centuries—to right the Wrongs of an oppressed people—and to re move the iron heel which you say the Saxon put on me Celt .centuries ago,.and yet yon began by inflicting on us the very injuries of which you complained. Why should yonr iron tread be forced on us? Why shonld our homes be desolated and onr young men be slain by you? Will any man of sense answer mis plain question? Was it less man murder for yon to come here in. the dead of night to ravage onr coon toy and slay onr people? And all this was clone under oolor of relieving Ireland’/Could any right you may have authorize yon to faommitsnch a wrong as you then perpe trated? This is putting yonr case in a very plain and dear light. You stand here surrounded by me friends and relatives of me men you slew on- that occasion. If you were : there. : as a reporter faven you were not guiltless. Your object waß to encqurage , others to, come lf these inen had been successful; or to keep mem hway if the reverse had happened. Looking at your conduct in that light, yon cannot be surprised that me law should be enforced and mat you should suffer the. dread pe nalty of that law—as I very much fear you will—for how could we punish me young, reokless and unthinking young men to be brought here for trial—-who followed such as you, and placed confidence in you, if you were to be allowed to esoape? Could you see any, justice in -pun ishing mem in' such a case? You oom plain unjustly <- mat - those - who - were in command on that occasion were not al lowed to come her e to give testimony in your behalf. Bnt I cannot pervert me law and the Crown cannot override it. ,If me Crown had any such pledge of safe conduct as had been spoken it could not be earried out. You have had aR the justice you could ijos-. EveryonetSfaabstelnsd from Urging too hardly against yon mat whloh might have been urged.. ButL would fail in my duty now. if-I did not pnt your crime in its true light when about to sentenoeyou to appear before that Judge who sees things jnst as they are; It is a very painful thing, me most painful whlch a man can be oalled onto do, to doom a fellow-man to death. Bnt the requirements of society urge it on OTTO, TTQOUS COUNTRY, • For some time past the city has not been ex cited overs heavy robbery.and the detect! ves have been compelled to employ their time with small cases. Yesterday, however, the monotony was broken by the announce ment that C. O. Parks, broker at 34 New street, had been robbed of 840,000 in gold certificates. Yesterday afternoon, at a quarter before two o’clock, Mr. Parks sent George Calvert, the alleged absoonder, to Messrs. Charles Unger & Co., bankers, of 48 Exchange place, with an order for $40,000 in gold cer tificates. As the distance was not a very great one from Mr. Parks’s office, after wait ing for the space of about fifteen minutes, Calvert not returning, a young man was des patched to ascertain the cause or the delay. On .reaching Messrs. Unger <fc Co.’s place the messenger was informed that Calvert had been there and drawn the gold certifi cates, each of them bearing the denomina tion of $5,000. On returning with this answer to Mr. Parks, that gentleman, doubtless supposing that Calvert had gone off elsewhere, but would soon return, de layed making any further inquiry for about half an hour. At the expiration of that time he became alarmed and suspicious that Calvert had yielded to temptation. A clerk was therefore sent to the Sub- Treasury, where he was informed that two. of the certificates, amounting to $lO,OOO in gold,had been cashed a short time previous. Upon comparing the numbers furnished to Messrs. Charles Unger & Co., it was discovered that certificates Nos. 21,997 and 21,105, of letter A, were the ones that had been cashed; Furtherinformation was obtained that Calvert had been seen to enter the Sub-Treasury building by the Wall street entrance and to leave it through the door fronting on Pine street. Beyond this nothing could be learned of his where abouts, and although unwilling to believe that Calvert had acted dishonestly, Mr. Parks was compelled to act upon the over whelming evidence of guilt that had been placed before him. The following description of Calvert has been obtained at the office of Mr. Parks: He is between twenty-five and twenty-eight years of age, small piercing eyes, large front teeth and a Celtic looking face. His beard and hair are of a light brown color; the heard grows over a great portion of his face and throat; speaks with a Blight Irish accent. At one o'clock yesterday afternoon he wore a coat of Scottish cloth of light brown, and pants and vest.of a lighter color. He for merly resided at 86 Clinton Place, and has a brother residing at Springfield, Mass. His occupation, as stated by Mr. Parks,was thatof a “gold runner” for delivering gold gold-cheoKß. In this capacity he had been employed by Mr. Parks, at various times, since last year. Until yesterday he had always been regarded as honest and trust worthy. > The following are the numbers of the cer tificates drawn from Messrs. Unger & Co.; payment of them has been stopped at the Sub-Treasury, except those already cashed; Nos. 22.000, 21,459 C, 21,706 D, 20,654 B, 21,656 D, 21,424 D. 21.997;A, 21,105 A. - Information of the supposed robbery was promptly sent to Police Headquarters, and Inspector Carpenter immediately detailed several deteotlves to hunt up Calvert. Tele grams describing the alleged theif and stating the robbefy committed have also been sent to all parts of the country. It is, however, the opinion of many that Calvert Ijasnot left the'city but is secreted some where iu New York. .Handbills notifying the.public thatpayment of the - gold certifi cates had been stopped and giving their numberawere extensively circulated yes terday. me. The law requires I should not shrink fiom it, if I could I would. Aathe law now , stands,you might be sentenced to immediate execution. Thelaw puts that discretion in my hands. Bnt inasmuchas that Jaw isan ;ex post facto one, as to you, Fshall certainly ; not exercise any discretion I may have to ,shorten your existence one hour;' ‘More ■over, ypn hav® a right to bring into Court the .whole case—to appeal from the deci sion of a Court adverse to you—if there .was anything, wrong in the' evidence and the proceedings; and God forbid that should deprive you of that opportunity -to appeal. You shall be treated just as the slaw was when you oommifted the offence; •?° '“at. iif the evidence does- riot, . in the opinion Of my learned brethren, sus •tam the conviction, time and 'opportunity > will he given you to move against it, Tf I ■have received evidence such as I ought not, or put a wrong construction on any part of lit, it will be 'open for you to make a com plainttothateflfect; and the period of your .execution will be delayed to the end of next 1 term, just as if that law had not hew passed so as to afford yon an opportunity of appeal. It uow only remaißS for riie to pronounce the dread senfenceof the law. Yours is an .offence punishable with death. I can exer iose no discretion. The sentence of the. Court on yon, therefore, is thaty on be taken 1 : to the place snom whence you came, to be r there detained till Thursday, the 13th day of December next, and to be taken from thence on that day to the place of execution, and ■there hungfcy the neck until you are dead, and may God have mercy on your.souU ; During the latter part of his Jiordahip’s address, be was deeply affected, and could scarcely proceed with the sentence. The vast audience in the Court were; hushed as still sb death itself. But, to all outward ap pearance, {he prisoner remained unmoved. Not that his indifference appeared stoical; but- he looked as if he had nerved himself to encounter the trying scene. - : _ An Iskllßt of Lynch's Career. The prisoner, Robert B. Lvncb, was born in Galway, we understand, to 1818, He was at one time Chief derk in the department of the Board of Charitable Donations and Bequests, Dublin Castle, and retained that post from 1537 to 1842, when he is said to have emigrated to the United States, He then engaged ‘in business in ; St Louis for a time, but left there to 1849, and traveled to many of the leading cities in the South American Repub lics and West Indies. He subsequently joined the American army, and was Quar termaster, with the rank of Major, in the 24th Wisconsin volunteers. During the lat ter part of the.war he was chief Clerk, with the rank of Major, in'the Discharge Depart ment of LhtriawUe. Subsequently, he says, he came to Canada, under the direction of Adjutant General McDermott, of the F. 8., of Louisville, Ky., to report the Fenian campaign in Canada. This ietbe prisoner’s account of himself ; but wehave heard other ■versions Of his Career which assigned him a residence of sorile years in Western Canada.

Herald 1 The Corn Crop.— The Cincinnati Price Ourreht statesthat, notwithstanding the contradictory reports about irost and floods the corn erop'will undoubtedly be a large one, although a small portion of it will be unsound.

The B?rks County Agricultural Fair Jield at Reading last week, was thegreat source of excitement along this valley for a few days and tempted many a one to &ce the crowd there and see the affair. The build ing appropriated to the exhibition of the horticultural, agricultural and mechanical and artistic productions. of Berks county was about half .large enough to acoom modatethe thousands who crowdeditaaislea. and many a Pennsylvania-Gerruan far mei’s daughter, managing tor may be the first time her hoop-akirt, must have - earn estly longed for a little more room ■- to cir culate in. The display of orchard frriit was exoßllent, and a Philadelphian could inarn there that not all the large apples iri the conn fry were grown in New York State,tf any thing like an average oould be struck of the general crop from the particular specimens exhibited. One plate of round, light-golden colored fruit labelled “Squinphes" (fact) promised a novelty which was only done away by seeing a neighboring specimen of the same kind 'marked ••Quinces.” The garden vegetables Buffered from their several days exposure, and on the last day showed the marks of the “withering hand of Tima” rather too plainly. The wonderful patch work bed quilts that appear at these conntry fairs were the attractive objects.for the elderly ladies and compared favorably with the kindred works of art of the photogra pher, the portraits of the Kings and Qneena ofrags arid patches. There were oows and other cattle, patent medicine venders with broad brimmed hats to attract by their novelty, or rather antiquity; to which hats the medicine venders added banjos and sang songs to draw attention to their patent blisters and potions. The “aide-ehowa” of infent Barnums, the coffee-mill opera of hand organs,and finally the horses and race track made a few of the objects of attraction of this county feir.: Now and then - some thing solid attracted one by its very rarity, and a collection of Wallace’s patented Key stone ploughs had always a large number of admiring farmers, around them. As yon looked at the ingenuity in the invention of their the capOal construction tor turning up the soil, it was not hard to un derstand why they attracted so much atten tion. The plough is the life of the fermer, and the golden harvests of our fertile valleys show how well they are driven throrigh the rich soil. It is from the. rugged mountains guarding these favored places chat the hearty oak and the solid iron are cut and moulded till the plough is ready to tgra up to life the sleeping sods of the valley. Is it any won der that the man who makes an improve ment in the plough deservedly wins the ad miration of every agriculturist and merits the hard-earned reward for his ingenuity? The Patent Office can answer. There is some complaint of the quality and yield of wheat, but the Indian corn crop is capital; potatoes were rarely better; ap ples by no means plenty, and traveling agents have snapped up every barrel of ci der they could buy, paying about five dol lars a barrel for it. How many barrels of city cider by the aid of water and sugar can be made from one barrel of real country ci der is a mystery—but a profitable one. The Tate Storm. A despatch from East Haverstraw, N.

From this point to a distance of naif a mile north, the entire track of the Hudson River Rail railroad has been completely submerged, water covering both ud and down tracks to the depth of several inches. Of course there had to Le an outlet somewhere. About one mile north of here it washed away the ground work of the track and ran off down the embankment The above state of affairs came very near causing a terrible disaster; as it was, quite an accident occurred.’ The following are the particulars: As the Albany express train down, which left Peekskill at 9 o’clock and 9 minutes this morning, reached the spot where the water had broke through, the engineer, not observ ing anything nnusnal in the state of the track, did not slow his engine, hut let her travel along at her usual rate of speed (about thirty-five'miles the hour). As soon as the ears ran on to that part of the track which had been undermined by the water, the rails gave way, and the entire train, with the exception of the engine Minnesota, ran off. A large number of passengers were onboard, and a panic ensued immediately. Every car, however, remained upright, but tumbled about terribly. One of the brakes men and a. newsboy was slightly injured. Just before the train ran off; perhaps not'a moment previous to the accident; the New York Express up passed the spot on the np track where the accident occurred, in safe ty. In fact, the engineer of that train looked back and observed the Albany train run offi The engineer of the down train, Mr. Thomas Hodge, and the fireman, Mr. Calvin Briggs, both assert;that if they had not been running at foil speed, the en tire train would have tumbled down the embankment; and had it occurred one mo ment . sooner than it did, a terrible disaster would have occurred, for in that case both of the express trains, heavily laden with human freight, would have been Jumbled into one indistinguishable iriass. The New York passengers in the train that met with the accident were taken to New York in the Sing Bing train. The noon train up was delayed -at the break over one hour, bat now eveiything is running regular again. I hear that the storm was very severe ftirther rip the river, but have heard of no disasters. - Peekskix.li, N. Y., Oct, SO.—The storm here last,night and this morning was very severe. The lower part of the. town near the depot was inundated, families being driven out of the lower part of their houses. The Iron Works, were compelled to suspend business as the water, covered the doors of their workshops.' The wind blew a perfect' hurricane. At this time of writing, 4 P.M., it is clearing up and a strong northwest wind prevails.

General Sherman had another interview with the President to- day, after the session of the Cabinet, at which he accepted the military diplomatic mission to M&rico, which I stated yesterday had been tendered ' to him. He will, therefore, leave forOirio to morrow, and, after arranging some pri vate affairs, he will leave for Mexico proba bly within ten days, accompanied by Col. Campbell, Minister to that Republic. The Administration is gratified at the prompt action of General Sher man, and the hope is confidently enter— tained that the presence of an officer of such rank and distinction will be a. suffi cient indication of the earnestness of '- Government in the measures it is taking to aid the restoration of the republic and'Uiat it will render the actual: presence of United States troops on Mexican soil unnecessary. General Sherman’s precise mission is- both, military and diplomatic. He goes to- sus tain Minister Campbell in all the diplomatic relations which may be re-estab lished, and empowered also with foil discretion ■as to the use of military power in any emergency requiring it, - The very important nature of this work is thus apparent, and the President j&- anx ious that it not only shall be in safe and able hands, but that our representatives shall reach the scene of action as soon a 3 possible. The name of Gen. Grant was at first suggested as the proper person for this position of military envoy, but as ha-cannot well be spared from the pressing duties con sequent upon the reorganization of the army,Gen.Sherman was selected, he having declined the tender of the War Department, which was made by the-Presidents When the change does occur in the lattsr Depart ment, it is altogether probable that General Grantwill assume its duties.— miaftington Cor.
