At tho present time many of Hdjatase neighborhoods are beautified with splon ■m .-piles of architecture, indicative of energy, ■Ewnlity,' judgment, and wealth.

As an improvement, l we learnthat a store willbe embellished, ner t. haps next season, with an entire '.front of plate ;■■■■ glass. This will exceed in brilliancy any thing 1 yet attempted in the art of • adorning the city. >1 ; Next to ventilation, light is necessary to ex ' and with suoh an improvement as in ■ dicated, goods can be shown to all necessary advantage. Chestnut street, Eighth street, Ninth street, Arch street, Spring Carden street, Bidgo ave nue,- Oxford street, parts of Second street, Market street, Poplar'street, Tenth Btreet and Girard avenue may be placed under the head of embellished public thoroughares. The pro prietors of the stores located thereon, natu rally awake to pleasurable competition in business, have arranged their show windows with a degree of artistic taste which cannot ,• help aropsing general and particular attention. Hence it is that on nleasant days these thor oughfares are crowded with ladies, who grace fully move along the sidewalks, stopping here r '' ana there to be astonished and to admire the latest styles of goods going oil' at “fearful rates'\6r ‘frightfxuly low figures.” jr i w© .are sure that the present season is far in ,Jv advance ofany other for suchmagnificent ex ,;’>V positions, hut it is behind or lower in: re-' V ’ gard to prices, for everybody cannot ■ fail to d ‘ observe a very remarkable diminution in rates from what they were tvyo or three years ago. Our storekeepers are keenly alive to busi ness, and having received immense stocks of A '.goods, both foreign and domestic, have thus Ss prepared themselves for the winter season ft andits genial holiday festivities,jas heralded * 1 hv the column and double column in the Bul * nisTUf. As a whole, business is quite as brisk, ■ l . ■ and, in some branches, mdre so than ever, but there seems to be a general complaint of the ! want of money. Why it is so is a subject for \! finanoial economists and'philosophers to de ’ jnonstrate. 'At all'events' our storekeepers generally are in good heart, in the grand trial race, to make money honestly. ■j New Boute from Philadelphia to jNorthebn Pennsylvania, New York and She West. —By the recent completion of the A Pennsylvania and New York Bailroad, which jr is an extension of the Lehigh Valley Bailroad from Willsesbarre to the New York State ■ line, a new route has been opened into NortU- J ern Pennsylvania, interior New York, Buf falo, Niagara Falls and the great West by the 1 wav of the North Pennsylvania, Lehigh Val ley* and Erie, Railways. Passengers taking the North Pennsylvania Express train at 7.45 A. M. reach Waverly the 'same evening, andean either lay over at Waverly and have choice of several Erie express trains the next day, orgo directly on to any point with which the Brio Bailway has con nections. This route, in carrying out the first conception of the originators of the North ■penn.Bailroad, passes through a region new to the majority of Philadelphia tourists, abounding in beautiful scenery and thriving towns : and being almost an air-line between its termini, . offers to both business and pleaßure-travel, speed, comfort and enjoy ment. We learn that the volume of passenger and freight traffic that has offered since the opening of the line is such” as to warrant the belief that it will be a favorite route for both business and pleasure. The Cokonek’h Office.— Dr. 'WilliainTay lor, the' Coroner elect, entered upon the dis charge of his duties to-day. The, excellent manner in which he managed the affairs of the office during a previous term is a suffi cient guarantee that his duties will be satis factorily performed. Mr. James M. Fletcher, who has creditably acted as Deputy during the past six years, retires from that position. He is succeeded by Mr. John C. Sees, of the Twenty-fifth "Ward. For several years past Mr. Sees has been a clerk in the Registration in the office of the Board of Health, abd is very competent to discliarge his new duties. Dr. K. B. Shapleigh will con tinue to be the surgeon. He has had great ex perience iu making post mortem examinations, and ranks among the best physicians in the city- His retention is a compliment worthily bestowed. City Councils should now provide a decent and respectable office for the Coroner. IT.ixaCtion. — Now -that* the season has ar rived when fires are indispensable to comfort, a word of precaution at ■the present time may avert the necessity in the future of recording some drcadful.aecident. The old maxim is that" { an ‘‘ounce of nrovention is worth a pound of ,? cure.” . Cotton dresses easily ignite from f ' t raiige§Egrates ( 'iurnaces or stoves when in full f , blast,‘and in a large majority 1 pf cases with l ' 1 atal result. Dresses made of woolen fabrics rv, are not easily ignited and are not apt to in ’'llame unless there is something more com bustible to feed on therefore, children in par ticular should wear woolen clothing, and so ■ should old'er persons whose • domestic duties require them to be about the household fires. • Kew Buinmsos.-J)uring the month of - October the Building Inspectors issued4B3 per v inits fpr the erection of new buildings.

This raominff they were taken before Aid. Myers and were held for a further hearing. All Saints Day.— This festival oocuys on the Ist of November, and in most European communities it is observed as a holiday, fne cable despatches say that it is a holiday even in London, the Stock Exchange oteeryinglt. In many Catholic countries this is the day when the cemeteries are visited and the graves of the dead decorated with immortelles, in New Orleans especially this custom -prevails. In Philadelphia at all the Catholic churches several masses were said tliis the day is observed as “a holiday of obliga tion.” | To-morrow \HII be All Souls Day. Caught in the Act.— Da Sunday morn intr. shortly before one o’clock, John Maguire was arrested while in the act of emerging from the front door of a liquor store at Ger mantown avenue and Jefferson had in Ins possession a chisel, and also some money,which it wasfound had been taken from the money-drawer of the store; He will ha\ e a hearing-at the Central Station this after noon.

Portion of a Body Found. —The arm, leg and foot of a woman, in a bag, were found at Ninth and Chestnut streets at an early hour this morning.'’ They are supposed to be por tions of a “subject” which had. been operated upon at a medical college.

The programme is as follows : Monday eyening, from i to 9 O’clock. Penmanship. Wednesday, from 7to 8 o’clock, elementary class in French; from 8 to 9, Elocution; from 9 to 10, Vocal Music. Thursday advanced class inFrench, from 7 to 8 o’clock. Friday evening, elementary class in German, from 7to 8 o’clock, and on Satur day evening, from 7 to 8 o’clock, advanced class in German. The price for. admission is merely nominal—One (1) Dollar for twenty lessons, to members only. These classes are conducted by well-known professors, and young men requiring instruction would do well to avail themselves of this opportunity for improvement. - The human family is so numerous that a birth and a death occur every moment. Every second acMldis born ; every second some ono dies. The prevalence of sickness in the world may ho realized in Dr. J. C. Ayer’s Laboratory, where medicines are made for all mankind. It would scarcely seem thUt there are throats enough to swallow the doses he issues daily— Avers Sarsaparilla, Ague Cure, and Cherry Pectoral, by the thousand gallons, and Ayer s Pills literally by the ton. But they must all be wanted, or he could not make such quantities for so many years.— Northfield Telegraph. —Miss Lucille Western will begin .an en gagement at the Walnut, this evening, in East Lynne; consequently there isa promise of moist weather at Ninth and Walnut streets for a week or two. Our recollection” of this per formance is, that wjhile it is characterized by a certain rudeness and want of elegance, it still possesses a great deal of power and feel ing indeed it must have some qualities of this kind or Miss Western could not repeat it with such success year after year; and she could not invariably harrow up the female soul, and excite the sniffles in her masculino hearers. No matter how silly the sobbing of Miss Western’s auditors may seem when we are away from her influence, it is beyond ques tionthat an actress must possess some power to enable her always to play upon the feelings, even of the coldest, as Miss Western does. —At the Arch this evening Mrs. Drew will produce Boucicault’s drama Lost at Sea. We sincerely hope this play may deserve warm S raise, as its -performance assuredly will. ioucicault has constructed some very interest ing dramas, but those of later date—-Formosa noticeably, have been exceeding feeble. Mrs, Drew is able to produce any play in the best manner, and to give a certain interest even to trash; but we hope Lost at Sea is worthy of the powers of her excellent company. —This . is to be a week of variety at the Chestnut Street Theatre.. Miss Keene will produce this evening Tom Taylor’s comedy An Unequal Match, in wihioli the best members of the company will appear. On Wednesday and Thursdav evenings Charles Keade’s beau tiful comedy Masks unifa Faces will be pre sented, in response to what we know to be very general riS|uest. Oil Friday evening Miss Keene -will first benefit, in a first-rate bill, and we hope the house will be crowded, for the enterprise and good taste of the beneficiary in establishing a first-class theatre here, deserve such a substantial recog nition from theatre goers..- —Duprez& Benedict’s Seventh Street Opera House will be open this evening with a new bill, which comprises comic and senti mental songs, agonizing conundrums, amus ing interludes, negro oddities, farces, shadow pantomine and everything that belongs to a first-rate ministrel entertainment. This com pany contains some of the best singers and actors in this line of business in the country, and they present an (entertainment that is unsurpassed. ] . —Hermann, the magician, will give his first performance at the Academy of Music this evening. It is hardly necessary to praise this man. He has appeared in this city irequently, and is, without doubt, the most skilful of all the artists in his profession who have visited us. His peculiarity is that he performs all his tricks without apparatus, but by simple sleight :pf hand. His feats.are all new and very mar • veildyis. —Carlotta PattV. and her troupe will give a matinee in the Masic on Satur day next, at two o’clock.

(Fromthe New Orleans Nowb oftho27th.l A queer case of kidnapping has just tran spired, and in some of its aspects it is highly romanticJv-Ghief of Police Cain several days ago received a telegram from ,Dr. Gossan, re siding near Grand Gulf, Mississippi, that his child, a little girl ton years of age, had been kidnapped by her uncle, John Cessan; and she was jirobablv at that time in New Orleans. Several detectives undertook the search, hut their efforts proved unavailing. The only clue given in the despatch was that the child while in the immediate vicinity of her father's house, I’HE DAILY EygSMING BULLETIN—PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY; NOVEMBER 1, 1869. had been dressed in boy’s dotMnfe,and would, in all flrobabiUty, be passed off as her uncle s son.. On Sunday the case was turned over to Special Officer' Cunningham, and, after a lengthened search,. he ■' discovered -they had been here,.but left a day or two before far St. Augustine. Florida. Telegrams were sent to St; Augustine, St. Marks, Appalabhieola and Pensacola, and on Monday jhetwd were ar rested in tho last-named place by - Marshal. McCloskey. As the kidnapped child has a great deal of property, in her own right, it is supposed her,grandmother, residing m Flori da, employed Dr. Cessan’s brother to do the kidnapping. Editor of the Bulletin— Dear Sib : In a re cent passenger railway accident! causing the death of a child, the inquest exonerated those in charge ofthe car from blame. Not having witnessed the casualty, I suppose the verdict corre'et. It would be inconceivable-that well meaning men should wilfully harm any l'el low-creature—least • of all a helpless infant. These aflairs, however, are too frequent. I have no statistics at hand, but from refer ence to the local columns of the Bulletin and other papers, I believe that forty or fifty persons are annually killed or maimed by our city cam. This is far too many. ■ Grant that in every case driver, and conduc tor are blameless; they cannot,prevent acci dents made unavoidable by the ( construction of their veMcles. Overhanging platforms ren der it next to impossible, when onoo caught beneath,to escape crusMng by the unprotected The'truclcs should always be inclosed, so that no one could, under any circumstances, he run over. At least three or four arrange ments have been patented to obviate this dan ger. Of their respective merits lain not com petent to judge, but all intend to prevent in jury to persons falling beneath the car. Legislation is needed upon this matter. The press should lift its powerful voice in behalf of an ordinance making it the duty of each company to guard the wheels of every car With some approved contrivance; and a law could certainly be framed general enough in terms to include all good ideas, without unduly favoring any one patentee. *- It may he that in the event of prosecution the companies would find it cheaper to pay damages)than to provide their cats with pre ventive appliances: but we cannot believe that gentlemen of character could permit such considerations to influence them In a matter where the lives Of their fellow-citizons are 'con stant! v periled and often sacrificed. • November 15t71869.

Ton will recollect, gentlemen, thero .was several of your safes in that fire, also several in the "fire at Sixth and Commerce streets, the next May, five weeks after wards, all of .which upon being oponed proved they wero fire-proof indeed, for I witnessed tho opening of the most of them, and in .every case tho contents were preserved, while safes of other makers were partially or entirely destroyed lat once concluded to have some thing that I could depend upon, and purchased one of your Bates. 5 The safe I purchased of you at that thus was subjected to a white hoat (which was witnessed by several gentle men that reside in the neighborhood) at the destruction of my Morblo Paper factory, 921 Wallace street; on tho afternoon and evening of the 24th inst. After digging the safe from the ruins, and opening it this morning, I was much pleased to find everything, consisting of boohs, papers, money and silverware, ell right. I shall want another of yorir safes ae soon as I can got a place to cbhtinne my business in. I conld not rest contented with any ether make " iaB WIMITAMB ”, /' Marble Paper Manufacturer.
