If he has a :proper con ception of the dignity of his calling,' he will sit down and swell out over a half. a column, regardless of anything hut the necessity of getting up an item about the Presidentof the "United States. At eleven o'clock this morning, President Grant walked down Chestnut street—past the BULLETIN 'et:lice. He looked in and smiled a smile of grateful approtal of the policy of the paper; but before our Great American Interviewer could get down stairs froth the fourth story to buttonhole the President and make him dis gorge all he knows about Cuba, and the Gold Bing, and the Alabama Claims, -and Dexter, and t he high price of cigars, and ascertain his opinion upon Mayor Fox, and the Democratic party, and the Suez canal ,' and the crops, and the Venians, and the Mormons—before our sorter—v-01'1A tin thi', • . I , had passed on. He glanced at the fair Exile of Erin, who sells apples upon the pavement, and we thought a shade of sadness overspread his irnpassive countenance as he looked ether and thought, probably, of the ills of Ireland, and resolved to make a new, demand upon Gladstone for the release of the Fenian pri soners,—a shade of sadness whibh deepened. intogloom as' he considered the chances of Mr. Moriarty coming down again to talk with him. Opposite the stand where the olive ' hued wanderer from Italia'e sunny skies and monumental plains roasts chestnuts, the Pre sillent halted and felt in his pockets ; —lie has two pdckets—evidently seeking for change. He found none, and feeling a certain delicacy about asking_ credit from a foreigner who might not understand the ofhis office, the President brushed away a silent tear with the sleeve of his blue pilot cloth overcoat, and went on a sadder and hungrier man. Stop ping at the corner for a few moments, he ex amined the statue of Benjamin Franklin across the street, and then turning to a police manrhe inquired_wiry,thoGuide, Philosopher_ and Friend carried that egg-beater in his right hand. The uneducated mynnidon of degraded justice of conrtsedidnotirnow. No policeman ever did know any given thing when it was - desirable-that he-should-know it. We-would call upon Mayor Fox to remove this benighted outcast, if there was any hope of securing such a result. Coming upon the State Housepavementthe General examined the fountain near Sixth street, and seemed puzzlel to ascertain' how the plants, - sprouting froln - the - top, -- contrived to grow from . the earth through the solid granite. Failing to get the hang of this, he drank from the ladle, we should think about a pint and a gill, and then proceeded to Inde pendence Hall, where he was shown the plate off of which'George Washington, the illustri ous lather of his country, and the first in. war, first in peace and first in the hearts of his poor _relationstrisedto.assiinilate..Wrations.When the janitor pointed to the very identical sec tion of the plate on. which George used to scrape his butter from his knife, the President put down his head and wept like a, child. It was a solemn and affecting scene. We seem to be moving along pretty well with this local ; and we were bound to have a good ono at any sacrifice. The President alSo examined the handsome Bible in the Hall, with the manufacturer's ad vertisement Upon it, and he casually observed to the bystanders that of all the self-sacrificing and patriotic men he ever came across, the most self-abnegating and patriotic was the man who would thus give a copy of Holy Writ to his country, and submit to have his name and place of business blazoned to the world. 'The President was much impressed by the pew which George 'Washington once occu pied. He made a mistake at first, and was ready- o ta.cry—verit:asaxclic.,of Wm.l'enn's church experiences, when he was informed of his mistake. He regarded the old bell with much interest, obServing that the man who picked that bell up and rang it on the firAt Fourth of July must have been a man of a good deal of heft. ---- "Vi7e — have no midi men nowr—said-the -PreSident'," "they have gone; the f t' have de parted, we shall see them no more.' After partaking of a frugal repast at the coffee stand in the Hall, he went out into the street again. For fear the Democratic party will accuse the President of reckless extrava-.. ganee in satisfying his appetite in this manner, ,we will state that Mr. Bone stood for the 'feed with a ealm indifference suggestive of large dividends. 0c27 3trp" Mountininto the barouche, once more the President drove past the Post Office and the Custom House, at both of which places he was received with hearty cheers by the employes, who expressed in this manner their-disinter ested affection for the President, and their en dorsement of his policy. General Grant was much pleased with this evidence of approval, and it is expected that he will telegraph to Washington to have the salaries of all these men raiNed. Tho party then proceeded down the street, and were lost to view. 4 Considering that we had absolutely nothing to write about, this may be considered a satis factory and successful local. Not every man could get it up if he should try. The Presi dent didn't say anything to us, which is his loss as well as ours ; if he had, we should have given him our views at length upon things in general. Neither did Mr...Borie invite us to lunch; if he bad, we should have done ample justice to his hospitality. Every reporter is open to oilers of this kind at any time. SABBATH SCHOOL JUBILBE.—The third an nual Sabbath School Jubilee, in aid of the Home.for the Aged and Infirm Members of the M. E. Church, will take place this evening at the Academy of Music. • About ono thou sand children, comprising the scholars of forty churches, NAM participale in the affair, and will be assisted by the Germania Orchestra. President Grant and Bishop Simpson are ex pected to be present. The house will be crowded. Every seat was disposed of three weeks ago and to-day standing tickets are being sold very rapidly. , _DrviTATimis To Di:moults—Lieutenant Errickson, of the Second District Police, this morning reported to -the Mayor that seven houses in his district were found unfastened during last night. This carelessness in no. glecting to fasten doors properly is ,an invita tion to burglars to commit depredations. , , CITY BULLETIN. PiIILADELPHIA 4 - THURSDAY,-_00_111{)BER-28r1869_ Atr How% AMONG THE PRODUCE DEALERS. —There are two localities in our city appro •priated almost exclusively to transactions In the "produce business." One of these is at Vine ; street wharf .and the other at Dock street and Delaware avenue. The business at the first named place is mostly confined to the productions of New Jersey, while at Dock streets much of the produce, from, the same State, and from Southern • and Western States, is ' received and dis bursed. A great amount of energy is required to successfully despatch ' this business, and unexpected losses frequently oc cur; because of the perishable nature of many of the vegetables. Most of the articles are re ceived and sold on commission, hence it• is not within the range of possibility that any of these dealers can lose anything by ' this ar rangewent. ' Sometimes, boweVer, • specula, tive movements, are started which result in losses. The following instance is a case in point: it illustrates heavier transactions: Early in Septeinber a Jersey farmer brought a load of cantelopes to Philadelphia, and wishing at once to realize money, sold them for fifty cents per - barrel. The dealer shipped them to Boston per steamer, the freight being $1 10 on each barrel. In a few days after ar rival he received notice that cantelopes were &11l of said; and all that had been . obtaiwid for the lot was not more than a shilling per barrel. • Cabbage.—The chances for a full supply of "saner kraut" are very flattering, for the cab bage crop was never heavier than at the pre sent time. The Season commenced about six weeks ago, and it is at its height. On Tuesday one hundred loads arrived, amounting in the aggregate to 60,000 heads. All these came from New Jersey. Tuesdays and Fridays are the days agreed upon to transact the cabbage businesp,. This appropriation of these days is known'm all parts of New Jersey, and those of our citizens who desire to. see an 'accumu lation of cabbage-heads can go to Vine or'. Dock street wharf on these days. Large quantities of cabbage are shipped to - Savannah and Charleston twice a week by steamer. And there is a daily shipment to Baltimore,, -from which -place thousands of heads are forwarded to many Southern locali ties by railroad. There is no Delaware or Pennsylvania cabbage in the market, and never is, except only in spring time. The number of heads of cabbage which have arrived in Philadelphia this season foot up to about 1,500,000. Am/ca.—Apples arriving at the pment time come mostly from New York. The crop of apples in New Jersey was the largest for five -yeanybilt-the-supply-from-this-State-has-run out, because many of the farmers have con verted an immense amount of this fruit into cider. Though the apples from New Jersey were considered' excellent, yet it is generrally conceded by the dealers that they are inferior to those Coming from New York State. The "maidens blush" is a fancy apple, and is the most valuable of all that arrive at the pre sent time. Ribbed pippins, egg tops, fall Newells (a new apple),the Flower of Genesee, golden sweets, sweet russets, strawberry,. twenty ounce pippins and Detroit reds, a v - ery fine apple, are daily arriving in large quanti ties. These varieties are considered as "eat ing apples." the winter fruit will come in next month ; the crops in New York and Ohio are good. Smaller quantities will come from Michigan. While the winter crop is estimated at a mo derate average, the fall crop was „very heavy. Pears and Quinces.—The pears which now arrive are mostly for winter use. Louis Bon De Jersey have come in unusual quantities. The Urbanist, a smallpear, but very fine eating,"-has - arrived, while tlie Becket pear has almost disappvared. The Duchess. and., Buerre Clargeau, both fine varieties ' are 'in the market. The crop of pears this season was greater than for many years. The - marketfer quinces-hu: - become - unusn. I ally active within the past week. The best qualities come from Western New York. The , quinces which arrived from the South and from New Jersey early , in the season were "snapped up" at larger figures than the pres ent rates, because the impression at that time was - prospectiVaseareity. The arrivals - from New York within the past day or two were rather unexpected, and prices have fallen. There are two kinds—one known as apple and the other as pear quince—now in the market, the latter being esteemed for its pretty shape and fine quality. &sleet Potatoes.—At the commencement o 'the season it was evident there would not be _half_crop of_sweet_potatoes,._but _late_rains_ have brought them forward in large quanti ties, and of very excellent qualities. The crop has been fully harvested. The "crop in Vir ginia is trernendous,"was the exclamation of a dealer whom we "interviewed" yesterday, and it is not far behind it in Maryland. These sweet potatoes never reach Philadelphia as a marketable article, but immense quantities of them are sent to Few York and Boston direct by steam navigation. mostly to New York. The seed are obtained in Slew Jersey. The potatoes this year are remarkably dry, many of them - being meally, It may be said.that the Philadelphia supply comes from the State • of New Jersey. Chertnuts.—Western Pennsylvania, and Vir ginia and New York, particularlv in the mountain ranges, may be considered loaded down with chestnuts. In fact in the whole in tenor; including the State of Ohio, the crop is •immense r andyet-higli.-rates-are-foreed upon themarket Arrangements are made to re ceive large quantities of chestnuts, and a lower price will be gracefully' submitted to. In regard to the produce business, taken as a whole, it may be considered an institution in which the human family has a direct inter est. The cropsof - the past season were far above the average, and the - *inter - supply is not likely to be short. During our interview with geveral of the n - tigt intelligent and active dealers,we learned that at lea4 - five millions of dollars changed hands among the produce-dealers - during the present season in the Dock street locality alone. At least half of this amount was required to transact the business at Vine street wharf,this being realized by those of the Jersey farmers who sent their vegetables to this place alone. At times both of these localities have all the appearance of immense _horticultural exhibi tions, every way interesting, as displaying the bounties of Providence which reward the in dustrious tiller of the soil. A ItAramortm COMPLIMENT.—Mr. William D. Rogers, the well-known carriage-builder of this city, has just been made the subject of an agreeable surprise. He has recently com pleted and moved into a splendid new dwell ing-houser at-. No. 1510 North Fifteenth -street,- whereupon the employes of his large estab lishment, without the slightest previous inti mation of theirdesign,presented to Mr. Rogers, as a token of their regard, a superb set of sil ver (from the establishment of William Wilson & Sons), consisting of a heavy salver, two goblets and a pitcher, all in elegant style, and delivered in a Inindsome rosewood case. As many of the employes have continued with Mr. Rogers through his entire business career, the "surprise" was all the more agreeable and significant, and the modest manner in which the affair was managed renders their act all the more worthy of notice. SLIGHT FznEs.—This morning, about four o'clock, a lire occurred in the second story of the butt and binge manufactory of Isaac Custer, at No. 929 Tyler street, in the Twen tieth Ward. The flames were extinguished be fore any serious damage had been done. The dwelling-house of the Naval Construc tor, at the Navy Yard, was slightly damaged by lire about five o'clock this morning. The flames originated from the as meter in the cellar. AmilvansAny.—The fifty-fourth anniver sary of the Sunday school of the First'Baptist Church, Broad and Arch streets, will be cele brated this evening.

[From the Burlin,gton Free Press, Oct. 27.1 The commluaity tartled Tuesday morn ing by news that a c member of the Junior Class in the University . of Vermont; . Donald Mann, - bad committed suicide by - hanging himr — • self,.-- It, room. It appears that noting was . seen ,or - Mann by , his college luates_sinee_last_Sattirdax_afternnon,_ and on Tuesday morning; immediately after prayers, the door ()Ibis room was broken bpen by order of the President. On entering the outer room nothing nnnsualappeared ; the door of the bedroom, which opened inward from the outer room, was ajar, and on push ingit open with some dilliculty_n _hem , fall was heard on the inside. The body of young Mann was found lying on its face, entirely cold, and with the life evidently long since de )arted. A glance showed bow he had come to his death. Taking asheet, be had wrapped the most of it tightly round a stick about two feet leng, put one 1 end of the sheet in a noose round his neck, and standing oil a, chair, had thrust - the - stick - between - the - upper - panel - of the door and the casing, drawing the sheet over the upper edge, then kicking away the chair, the weight of his body instantly closed the door fast upon the sheet, while the stick prevented it from being drawn out, and the noose did its fatal work. The knees were drawn tip somewhat, the hands clenched, and discolored, and the face somewhat blackened. No reason for suicide has yet been found, nor even the slightest clue to explain it. On Saturday young Mann was with his college mates as usual, nor was anything unusual observed, or any remark noticed, save that to a classmate who invited him after dinner to play a game' of quoits, he, in refusing, said he "felt pretty bad.' He was not seen after Saturday afternoon; was heard by others rooming on the same floor declaiming in his room. between 4 and 5 o'clock, apparently rehearsing. a Chapel ex erase; Was - ncirat - tealhat'evening;nor - at - the' meeting of the College Society, to which he belonged. About 11 P. M., Mr. Doty, of the Freshman Class, who roomed on die same landing, heard, some one, whom he supposed to be Maim, come up thei stairs and gp into -the room;-and this-was-the-last known-of-him _till_the discoveg_ of his body. -We aro in formed that during his Freshman year he was at one time seized with an epileptic fit. Mann was the oldest son of the late Alex ander Mann, who graduated at the University of Vermont in 1838, in the same class with the late President Pease, Hon. John G. Smith and J. S. Adams, and died, we believe, in 1861, leaving this son Donald, and a younger brother named Parker. His mother afterward mar ried Hon. Isaac Hills of Rochester, N. Y., and now resides there. 'Young Mann was about 19 years old—a bright, intelligent fellow, though a little odd in some of his ways ; of a cheerful disposition, a good scholar, and doing unusually. well this term and every way a young man of much promise. At 6 o'clock last evening the students assem bled at the Chapel and funeral services were had, conducted by President Angell and Pro fessor Petty, after .which the remains of young Mann were conveyed to the Rutland depot, to be transported to Rochester, N. Y., his mother's residence r for interment. What; Governor Brownlost Thought of Judge Cooper. EFKom tlao lE3lcm:dile (Tann.) Press, Oct. 23.1 . Judge Henry Cooper is elected United States Senator from Tennessee for six years from the 4th of March, 1871. Judge Cooper is a native of Maury county, but removed to Bedford, where he was mar ried in 18541. He was sifibsequently elected to the Legislature from that District, in a hotly contested canvass, by a ma jority, of 600. r He was again sent to the Legislature, from the county pro per, over one of the most popular men in the district,, by about twenty votes. The vote in this election was the largest ever polled in the county up to that time. He re ceived the appointment of Judge from Gov ernor Johnson, and served with great credit to himself until 1866,when he accepted a chair in the Faculty , of the Cumberlanci University at Lebanon. During his term on the bench, he several times sought to resign, but his re signation was not accepted,ok rather the Gov ernor of the State (Brownlow) insisted upon his retaining the position, and, in a sub sequent message to the Legislature, re ferred to him as one of the purest and most upright members of the State Judiciary, and, though opposed to him politically, ear nestly protested against his resignation. from CRIME. PAINFUL TRAGEDY: 1:i the position he had'ffiled with such honor to hiniself and service to the State; Judge Cooper was never a personal applicant for 'any office, and was never defeated in any taliVass beford • the people. He is justly regarded as . ' one •of the rising statesmen of Tennessee, universally esteemed for his spotless charabter, emi neat abilities and genuine conservatism.
