We have heard of rare fnrs bein^ . -ipenred on mountain height*; but in this instance ;h<* mountain heights themselves have been transferred to Mc.->n?. A. K. & F. IC. Womralh's* uparioiu* sales rooms, in the form of piles of elegant fur?, hage and Innumerable. What an aggregation of these elegant and luxurious articles! AH newly made np in the newest and most .exquisite styles, from the choicest and must carefully selected furs, purchased by a mem ber of the ilrra in not one of, bat ail the leading par markets of the world- The most magnificent seta v of Imperial Russian Sable-Muffs, Tippols and Collars, fit for and admired by the crowned Queens of Conti nental Europe, are here, by happy, manipulation of the Mesne. Womrath, gracefully presented to the un crowned queens of America. These, magnificent sets, which arc Philadelphia to this house alone, range In price from $250 to $6OO. In juxtaposition with these, and but little leas beautiful in appearance, visitors on Tuesday next will find a towering assort nieht of sets In Iludabh' Bay Sable, ranging in price from >,V) to $lOO.. In bOth these superb grades of fc&ble, we may add that this house is but one of three in America which is constantly, prepared to execute duplicate orders to any number from its own stock on hand. In Royal Chinchilla endless tiers of drawers unfold such a stock as has never before been seen in this city, while in the beautiful* Mink .Sable (.a most elegant and very fashionable Fur) the display will surpass anything hitherto presented in this country. Sets of the latter range in price from the extremely low figures often dollars to one hundred dollar? for muff and collar. The new Simia Muff; an exquisite novelty, just introduced from Paris, is con fined exclusively to this house, and will unquestionably be in j opular demand on account of its newness, pecu liar gracefulness, and its special adaptation for ladies In mourning; What a glorious crowding of beauty and fashion there will tie on Tuesday next to see and fee* and admire the new “Simla” Muff! The opcoing will also be replete with a princely dis play of carriage and sleigh robes, and comfortable foot ninfl's of every kind and quality, while in gentlemen's mufflers and gloves the oshibition will Ire so attractive end complete that the world will know' if it. never knew lxTore. that the' place of all others in this country to purchase elegant goods of this class, in rarest ex i vllence from first hands, and at the most moderate prices, is at Womruth's, 417 Arch street. By the way it will offend no one to mention that the prices of furs,as we discover from this display,are very much lower than they have been any time within the last five years. To those who may make selections on the day of the opening, or any time after it, it will also be agreeable to know that in purchasing from this house it t'a t'.ny.oss.'l/lc to In' deceived. All goods are sold with agttarantee that they tire as represented, and this guarantee is put in writing if desired,which, from a house that has had an honorable reputation in our midst ever since ISIS', nearly fifty years, and which has always.maintained the highest name for integrity, is a matter of importance, both to those who pay for and those' who wear these elegant articles of dress and comfort. That the “Opening" referred to will be a gaiaday to the ladies of our city, and to some extent inaugurate a new era in the Fur business,will hardly be questioned. ' Selling Off !

MIN KFN Arrest of a Young Plan on a Charge bt ffllnrdcr Committed Two Years Ago. [From the Chlc.vßn Times, Heat. 23rJ Saturday forenoon a man named George L. .Van Soien was arrested at the - Wheeler House, in this city, by Detective Samnel Filip -,-sfcthe in stance of Chief of Police Mclirath, Oi [ 'Si: Paul, Minn,, on the charge of the murder of Dr. H. Harconrt, near that city, in August, JSfio. Van Soien'in 1804 was in the Government service, being employed as a hospital steward in St. Louis. There he met Dr. Hareo'urt, who was a young English physician of rare attainments and hau lately conic to this country, in the spring of 18 fib Van Soien wa3 in St. Paul, and by means of a decoy letter, offering Harcourt the position of surgeon to a bogus ctcpfditiou to Lake Superior ami the British Possessions, he induced ilarc-ourt to go to St. Paul, taking with him a large supply of medicines, surgical instru ments, persona! effect- and ■ juito an amount of money. After the arrival ot Harcourt in Bt. Paul he mystcriou-Iy disat peered, and from the subsequent investigations it seems almost certain that he was taken down the rivc-r a few miles by Van Soien. aud murdered in cold blood. The only object of the awful crime was to obtain the'ppsst-ssion: of the ctl'cets he had brought and the money w hich he Was known to have. What first, excited suspicions of foul play was the receipt of letters by the mother of Harcourt in England: one from her son' informing her of his appointment, and inclosing the decoy letter, and afterward a letter in answer to her anxious inquiries for him. from Van Soien himself, both of which were in exactly the same handwriting. It was also found that, after the disappearance of Harcourt. Ids friends in St. Louis had received letters purporting to come from him, and dated “in the woods." all of which were traced directly to Van Soien. He w*ns found at the hotel named, where he whs employed in the capacity of night watchman. Since his arrest, he lias admitted that he wrote the decoy letters spoken of, and it is.now almost certain that he is guilty of this horrible crime. IIKI.MBOI.I*. Forgery in Brooklyn, IV. Y. [From the New York Herald of to day! It has been whispered in well-informed circles of the business community of this city for the past two or three days, that a popular Bank lo cated in Fulton street, near the City Hail, has been victimized by a sharp operation oh the part of some person, as yet'unknown, to the tune of $2,500. Inquiry among the officials of the Bank in question, which.rumor designates as the Cen tral .Bank, has failed to elicit any information whatever, these gentlemen observing remakable reticence oh the subject whenever broached. The fraud is not denied, hut they state that it is useless to give publicity to the circumstances until such time as the police have accomplished the arrest of the guilty party, whose description they are at pre sent invpoaseaaioß of. It appears that one day last week, in individual called at the Central Bank and presented a check purporting to be signed by Richard 11. Hooley,. the manager qf the mmstrel opera house, for the sum of $2,500, which the paying teller certified, so genuine to all appearance was the signature attached. This, of course, was a forgery. The operator then pro ceeded to New T ork, where he Bold the check, realizing, it is presumed, amply* from the opera tion. “In the course o£ a few days the identical lorged check came back to the Central Bank in the regular order of business and the amount was duly paid. Subsequently Mr.’Hooley had occasion to Bend a check to the bank for a considerable sum, which was the first incident to excite the suspicion of. the officers that a mistake existed somewhere, inasmuch as the amount of deposit to the credit of that gentleman was ex hausted. Further inquiry elicited the true con dition of affairs, and on'eomparing the genuine with the bogus cheeks, the fraud was readily de tected. Information was then given at the police headquarters, and detectives are now on the trail of the guilty party, with fair prospects of suc cess. it is presumed, from their own assertions. Attempted Abduction ok a Cliild ill Massachusetts. [I-Yem the Worcester iMa-3.* haziftte, Sept. 2H.1 A very hold attempt at abduction was perpe trated in the town of Milltmry on Tuesday last. For several days previous there had been around the village a strange mac of light complexion, dressed “in a suit of bine 'clothes, and in appearance about thirty-five years of age. On Friday he called at the" house of R. M. Oakes’ on some pretended errand. The little daughter of Mr. Oakes came to the door, the rest of the family being away from home. Since then, up to the time of the attempted abduction, he has been frequently seen watching in flic neigh borhood of Air. Oakes’s residence. No person appeared to know him, and by his quiet manner he avoided suspicion. On Tuesdav Mr. Oakes's little daughter, a bright lively little girl, at tended school. On her way home, while in aby street, she was met by this unknown man in a carriage, who tried to prevail upon her to take a ride with him. She refused; he instantly' jumped out of the carriage and seized her, when she commenced screaming, but he soon stopped her screams by gagging her, and then proceeded to place her in' tiie carriage. At this Eoint a man happening along sprang for the orse and prevented the rascal from starting. He took the little girl out from the carriage, who fainted in his arms. While he was attending to the sufferer the villain whipped up his horse and made off. Air. Oakes knows of no reason why the man should wish to steal his datigliter. , Address of tlie Union Republican State Central Committee. , Committee Rooms, No. IKS Chertnut street, Philadel phia, Serf. 23.1867—2’0 the Voters of Pennsylvania— Fur.- low Citizens: Once more to the rescue!

If it became necessary to sustain that Con* grins and resist the usurpations of the President, the speaker would call upon the State to aid him, as siue us he stood before them. Mr. Grow qnid: Men who have taken up arms agaiut their country are ashing to be again intrusted with power und the right* and liberties of mankind. Before you dare to thus treat the fruits of victory, call back the glorious armies of the luion. iuid bring back the rebel ranks to Appomntox Court-house, and bid them surrender to Lee. 1q trusting tleveinen with power we should imitate the Indian who «aid: “If a rogue cheat me once, shame be on him; - if he cheats me twice, shame be on me.” The speaker then sw*ke at length of the course the President had pursued. The rebels had not come back lik- the prodigal son, as the President would have us lnliivo. but were simply coming back and saving: “Why don’t you kill the fatted call The Cop perhead wanted the South restored to their former posi tion because he missed the votes of hia Southern brethren. The Democratic party had everywhere been beaten, and it wa* now necessary to beat them in the judiciary, ai'ti-r thev had been conquered on the field and at the ludlot-box. The importance of the judiciary was then alluded to by the speaker, and the disastrous effects that might follow from improper decisions spoken of. The terms oil which the South should he ndmitteclwerediu emsod, and it was claimed that the South had rejected the offers made, ami they, with Johnson, were responsible for the fact that, they wi re now out of the Union, it «as claimed that no other terms than those proposed-by Congress should be offered them. In conclusion Air. Grow said: “The President dare not offer any other terms fhau those to the men wle> labored for the overthrow of your liberties and the' destruction of your country. Somethings are so valuable that the nations who buy them pay the price in blood. Our fathers, when thev raised this magnificent monument of a Republic, crowned it with laurels, but left chains at the base, and their great mistake has nearly overthrown the Republic. But the effort* of-the rebellion were not successful; and by tho love you bear your fallen heroes, by tho duty you owe to coming time, see that our couutry in the future is fixed on the rock of ages, so that the wind- may beat in vain against it.” ‘ Clioice Extracts.

The following is an extract of a private letter received in this citv: Nkw °r.i,EANs, Sept. 21 1857. — Tearing von might have some apprehension as to the safety of the orphan children in the asvlums here during the prevalence of the epidemic here, I visited on Friday last these institutions. The Sisters informed me that there had not been a single ense of fever in their buildings. Providence had singularly blessed them. The children were enjoying excellent health, and no daDger was anticipated from vellow fever. The epidemic is widespread' but, the disease is of comparatively a mild type. We have had as high as 7fi deaths a day from fever. In 1853 we had over :!0n per day, so that we arc not as badly frightened as. we might be. The mortality Is much greater among Europeans, more especially Germans, than any other class. Northern men also come in for their share. Another remarkable feature is liuit übonl three men die to every one wo man! The weather is now what it always has been in yellow fever times; almost everv dnr we have floods of rain, interspersed with terrific peals of thnnder. Immediately following the rain the sun comes out, podring down Its hot rays upon the ■vast swamps of water lying in the rear of the city. I have no doubt that the sun’s inttuenceon the water does a great deal towards increasing, if it is not the immediate cause of the fever so pre valent here.
