SAPOUEOS S SUCCESSOR.
JWMiortality not being included in the
« divine right :> of kings and emperors, Louis
Kapnleon, of France, must die. He must die
within six months, according to one “Segnard”
whose opinion is quoted in the Inquirer, and
who is probably Dr. Brown-Seqnard, a physi-
cian and savant, well-known in this country as
well as in France. Sentence being thus pro-
nounced against the French Emperor, and his
death being expected before he shall reach the
sixtyrsecond ygjjr of his life, or perhaps the
eighteenth of his reign as Emperor, there are
great expectations in all those families that
■ think they have a claim upon the succession.
Bonaparte and Bourbon seem to be alike spec
ulating upon the prospect after, the present
head of the State departs. '
The natural successor to Napoleon HI. is
iis son, a'lad less than fourteen years of age,'
and it is hoped by the Emperor that the French
people will be content with Napoleon IV., with
the Empress as Regent until he arrives at mah
'hood. The next in succession, of the Bona
parte line, is Prince,Napoleon, who has more
Bonaparte blood in him than the Emperor,
who looks like a magnified Napoleon 1., who
Is a son-in-law of the King of Italy, and who,
though often ridiculed, has a great deal more
talent than he is usually credited with. He
has made himself very popular, of late years,
' by his liberal speeches in the Senate, and in
looking about for their next ruler, the French
people might light upon a much worse, .man
than Prince Napoleon, vulgarly called “Plon-
Plon.”
It may well be believed that the little coterie
that suixounds the Count of Chambord and
"'calls biin Henry.'Y. of France, is excited about
the prospect of the Emperor’s death. He 'is, in
the eyes of the old nobility, the true monarch
®f France, and he has some little chance, when
the catastrophe arrives. But he is childless,
and the direct line of Henry IV. would end with
Henry V.;,for the Salic law, which the legiti
mists are bound to would exclude
irom the succession the heir of his sister the
ex-duchess of Parma. ,
The elder branch of the Bourbon family"
coming to so abrupt an end, the younger, - or
Orleans branch, would be considered by royal
ists and legitimists. This is a most , prolific
branch. Louis Philippe left-several sons and
daughters, and his living children and grand
children now number thirty or forty, - with
every prospect of much greater increase; for
the descendants are marrying among them
selves, and also looking for matches in princely
femitiew everywhere. The immediate succeV
scr to the Orleans title to French sovereignty
fa the Count of Paris, son of the late Duke of
Orleans, Who is married to his cousin, a
daughter of the Duke of Montpensier, and
• bas -a aouple of children. He is
the ' hope of the house, and is a
clever and -well-educated gentleman. His
uncles, the Duke of Nemours and the Prince
de Joinville, are reported to be visiting the
Ocrman watering-places, entertaining public
■ten and journalists, and it is understood that
they are paving the way for an attempted res
ration of their house. The position of the
ieuse of Orleans is such that it seems as if their
chance would be as good as that of either the
elder Bourbons or the Bonapartes, in case of
any-peii-'-ioa!-convulsion when the, preseut Em
peror dies
THE WHISKY Eisjl.
The Grand Jury, which elosed iti labors on
,Saturday last, found true . bills of Wdictment
against Neil McLaughlin, Thomas Eagan,
Bobcrt Hamilton and James Atwell, all of
- whom are charged with complicity im the inur
' 4 (Jerous assault upbn Detective Brooftcs. The
t wo principal actors in this dastardly outrage,—
st i far as the actual assault is concerned,—have
all eady been convicted and will 'doubtless, re
eei, ve the full deserts of their ' crime.
Mcl .av.ghlin, after affecting to' turn, state’s evi
4enc e, and swearing before the Mayor to the
identi ty of Marrow and Dougherty, indulged
in a lit >e of evidence in Court so diametrically
,■ tippbseo 1 to his lirst 'story that he lias in
vited an additional prosecution for perjury.
The otto ;I ' 3 are implicated in various degrees
V lty the evi'.d en ce elicted before the committing
magistrates and an .effort will be made by the
Commonwei alLli to convict and punish the
whole gang. \
The “Whi&i'ty King” has hitherto been an
indefinite, intai 'gible idea in the mind of the
general public, . ibout which much has been
said, and compaftatively little understood. That
a combination existed whose whole aim and
~ purpose was to. evade and defeat the laws, and
" to rob the revenues , of the Government, has
long been known. \ This combination has
• wealth and influence a t its back, and ;its mem
‘ hers comprise ' men \- of more than one
' class in society, nat "only, the illicit>
(distiller ’ and . liquor \ seller, but also
l Government oflidals, revc.nue collectors, law
'i • iyers, . politicians, legislator s, policemen, and
ij f ©there; all of whom have grown fat and are
’Still fattening uporsSfhe rascally' system of plun
der and jobbery by which the taxes of honesir
citizens are perpetuated, the treasury of the
L e« untry despoiled, and the ends of justice con-'
stantly set atnaught.
/ The attempt 46 assassinate Detective Brooks _
has resulted most happily for the public good.
' ■ Although the pistol that was to remove faith
. : ful olhcer cut of the way of this wrenched
Ij' Whisky Ring was discharged so close to his
~ HOTEMBER2, 1869.
tody as to burn his clothing, the morderom
ball was tinned aside and failed in its fatal
iritrposfl. The Government, stretchiug out
its strong sum to protect its servant, oa»f>
promptly and Vigorously to the aid of tbe law
and the liberal rewards that were offered soen
procured the arrest of the bravos who we.ro
undoubtedly hired to do this foul murder.
Tbe trial that has already taken place has given
the public an insight into the operations of the
Whisky Ring, and has done much to develop
the material of which it is composed. The
trials yet to take place will probably unearth
still more; of ~ this nefarious business; and, by
bringing the whole unrighteous conspiracy to
the light, will do much toward breaking up a
system which cannot possibly continue to ex
ist in such a community as this. There . can
longer Ih i any doubt that the
Whisky'Ring'of Philadelphia comprises men
claiming positions of respectability in society,
add that the money ahd influence of these men
are essential to the operations of this -lawless
gang.’ Such. men, when once the stigma of
their base association is stamped clearly upon
tfcfcm, will be driven out of the decent society,
of Philadelphia, aiid will either he forced to
transfer their opfil’klions to other localities, or
will so lose social position arid outward respec
tability as to be no longer valuable to the
Ring,” or dangerous to the community.
The Government cannot spend money in
any other way so economically as in breaking
up the Whisky Ring. Liberal rewards
promptly offered and promptly; paid
ere the surest guarantees for the capture
and conviction of these offenders against law,
as .the recent Brooks case abundantly illus
trates. . Until we shall get a metropolitan
police in Philadelphia,or until the next election
purges our city of the present police nuisance,
little can be hoped for from tbe municipal au
thorities. Such a police as we now have is more,
likely to help than to hinder tlie Wliisky Ring,
and the General Government must protect its
revenue and enforce its laws with its own
money and through its own agents. Of one
great ally it can always be sure. Pub
lic opinion in Philadelphia is over
whelmingly against all the corrupt combinations
which seek in vain to set it at defiance. From
the highest to the lowest,there is no member of
the Whisky Ring who can long resist its pres
sure, after be is once fairly identified with that
membership. If he is a politician he will be
beaten at tbe polls; if he is a lawyer he will be
beaten at the bar and in the jury-box; if he is
a man holding social position and influence,
they will slip away from and let him slip down
into an association which will be his
worst punishment. With these elements of
the Whisky Ring once broken down,
its grosser and lower elements will be
more readily reached and rooted out. With
out friends in power, without money, without
influential backeijs, the McLaughlins and Mar
rows and Doughertys of the Whisky Ring will
stand a very small, chance of escaping the
clutches of the law. It is for this reason that
the law and public opinion should aim high
when they attack the Whisky Ring. When -we
can break down and drive eut the ■ men who
serve the Whisky Ring and live upon it in
broadcloth, it will he a comparatively! easy
matter to deal with its more rufliailly ele
ments. ' -
THE HOUSE OF CORRECTION.
, Select Council, after getting oft', their little
joke on the vulcanite pavement, yesterday, so
bered down to the serious consideration of the
greatly-needed Douse of Correction. The
proposition, to locate that institution at the
Clark Farm, near Hdlmesbiirg, which is cer
tainly the most desirable location, in all re-,
spects; but one very important and satisfac
tory step was taken in the right direction. The
scheme to buy a swamp in Delaware, county,
for the erection of Philadelphia’s House of 1
Correction, was practically squelched byan
indefinite postponement, and the question be
ing relieved of this embarrassment, Councils
will be able to consider and act upon tbe seve
ral propositions for sites within our own mu
nicipal limits.
The want of this House of Correction presses
with constantly increasing severity upon this
increasing community. There is no longer
any doubt of the imperative need for such a
.reformatory institution, but there has been an
unaccountable delay in taking any practical
steps toward securing its advantages. -Here
and tliere, interested parties have tried to force
most unsuitable properties upon the city, At
unreasonable prices, and it is a cause for con.-
gratulation that none of these speculations has,
so far, succeeded. Councils have done a good
negative service, in not building the
House of Conectiou in some of
tlie locations Where private ' speculators
would have been glad to have misplaced it.
Mow let them do the positive service of setting
earnestly te work to put up a good House of
Correction in some healthy, convenient, acces
sible spot, arid so extend to our prisons and
almshouses and public cliarities the relief which
they all nee.d so much,, ami which can only he
afforded in this way.- Mo more argument is
jieede'd to show ahy a House of Correction
eshoiiid be built. We want, now, nothing but
piomfit. intelligent, judicious action, and it
cannot be either intelligent or judicious unless
it is exceedingly prompt.
XJIL SliFl>l,Y or ANTHRACITE COAL.
We are now in the last month of canal navi
tion and die eleventh month of the year, a pe
riod of time when it is always well ' eubughfer
consumers of anthracite to know whether the
quantity for.wardetl to market indicate deficit
or over supply.
What may he the condition of the anthracite
market in mid-winter is a matter partly of con
jecture, since even among producers of coal
different opinions are expressed, some of those
.representing mining districts, whose suspension
of work has diminished production, affecting
to believe that about New Year low prices will
prevail. IFmay be, howeveif tlito tKiS 'opihioh"
is promulgated with a view to check purchases
from regions where the collieries are in opera
tion,in the hope that,if consumers still defer ob
taining a supply, the resumption’of work in col
lieries now idle may be simultaneous with ac
tive demand and high prices in market; so that
a larger margin pf profit will compensate for
suspension of production diuing miners’
strikes'. ' / ■
F Certain it is that coal is now about one dol
lar per ton higher price than it was one month
ago; and as the deficit in the supply forwarded,
compared with corresponding time last year, is
now much larger than it was a month back, it
is strange reasoning to conclude in the face of
facts tending to a contrary result, that a month
or two hepce, when the canals will be closed,!
■ prices will be lower than at present, with the
canals arid the railroads both open to market.
It is, oCcourse, best for the public that prices
benrit raised, and if distant ednsutiere make
their purchases for winter whilst yet naviga
tion is unobstructed, they" assure, themselves
against the panic, famine and high prices,
which will assuredly rule if coal become scarce
in the winter months. ~ ...v , , -
Anthracite was abundant and cheap airionth
ago, when we admonished distant consumers
of the then existing opportunity to buy ; and
as it was otoions then, sois it even more ob
vious now, that procrastination is 1 beset with
upward tending prices.
To be sure, the railroads are open in winter;
nevertheless, coastwise navigation is always
extra perilous, arid coastwise freights are al
ways high when ice abounds. Moreover, when
floating ice impedes communication with coal
shipping, docks in the Delaware river, all rivers
and harbors north of the Delaware are also
obstructed with ice, to an extent which virtu
ally suspends the delivery of coal. Besides, it
is never prudent to put off the purchase of a
winter supply of coal till; a December greeting
announces the necessity of mineral fuel.
The grcat finthracite tnarketeast of Chess?
peak* Bay and the Susquehanna river, it is
known, is supplied over eight carrying, lines
owned by seven incorporated companies. The
tonnage of these several for 'the current
year, compared with corresponding period last
year, enables the consumer to judge, with proxi
mate accuracy of the probabilitiea of rise or
fall in prices, since quantities are always com
parative terms in commerce.
The quantities in the Statement winch fol
lows will be found especially suggestive and
significant: • , !

term of years, averaged ten per cent, per an

Sir Richard Grosvenor, K.G.,P. C., Marquis
of Westminster, died at hiritowu residence in
Grosvenor Square, London, day before yes
terday. He has, .long been considered the
richest man. in England, and be has some
times been profanely called “the greatest
screw,” which mean 3 the stingiest man, in
England. His family is directly descended
from the Grosvenors who came oyer
with William the Conqueror. He was born
January 27, 1795, so that he was nearly
seventy-five years old. His title and his
enormanS estates,. including several
magriifieent seats in. different parts of
tb e kingdom and. much valuable property in
London, descend to his son, Earl Gros
venor, who is a man of rattier more mark, po
litically and socially, than the late Marquis. In
the county of Chester, the Grosvenors have
held a prominent position, the Marquis being
Lord Lieutenant and Custos Rotulorum.
Eaton Hall, near Chester, one of the prin
cipal residences of the family, is one of the
most magnificent show places in England, and
is known to most American visitors to the
ancient town. 1
- The A</e, thi.s-moruing, tries, very ridicu
lously, to fix the responsibility of Jimmy
Haggerty’s escape upon Judge Brewster. It
says that that gentleman' communicated the
nature of bis forthcoming decision' to one ef
Eqggerty’s nearest relatives. Mot enjoying
the Aye’s intimacy With the Haggerty family,
we have no means of knowing whether this
story is‘ true or not. It is needless to say that
it is discredited, prcimi facie, by the Aye's
assertion of it.

{Special Despatch to the Phtlada. Ercnlne BuUetfn.l
M*w York, Nov. 2.—The Daily Nem of this
afternoon says :
The contest to-day, although of secondary
account, has excited more interest than usual
when only a Secretary of State Is to bo elected.
Present indications show that the Tammany
ticket will sweep the city.
Among Assemblymen two or three of the
regency nominees may be defeated, but pros
pects so far are fair for all of them. The fol
lowing is a summary of movements in the
various Wards this morning.
EUjhth Ward —The repeaters are polling a
heavy vote. One of them was challongea by
an inspector in the sixth district to swear his
vote in. “ I will, and eat the hook, too, if you
desire it/'he replied. The inspector said it
he did offer to swear it in he would have him,
arrested. This did not intimidate the indi
vidual, and his vote was cast;
Norton is polling a heavy vote.
Tenth Ward, —The voters in the above ward
are voting solid for Creamer.
Repeaters are scarce in this ward, and very
few voters have been challenged. The Mo
xart Assembly Ticket is running /airly.
Fifteenth 'ward —Norton is polling a heavy
vote. Nearly every suspicious vote is chal
lenged, but voters generally succeed in depos
iting their votes in the ballot-box.
Several small affrays have occurred, and it
is likely there will be trouble before the polls,
close.
Xinettent/i and Tirmiy-first Wardt—lhn elec-,
tion in the Twenty-first and' Nineteenth
Wards, this morning, has been going along
briskly since sunrise. The officers .ore kept
busy, anti, so far as ascertained, everything
has been quiet. ' /
A couple of repeaters havejbeen arrested in
the Eighteenth Ward, and suspicious gangs of
men are noticeable marching around m au tli
rections. Nothing can bo predicted as yet as
to the relative positions - numerically of the
candidates in the above Wards.
DfriMcUwe fire at Bnllimere.
Baltimore, Nov. 2.—A destructive lire oc
curred last night at the Abbot Rolling Mills,
at-Canton, the extreme eastern end of the
City. The portion used for rolling iron was
entirely destroyed, and also much valuable
machinery, and only part of tho main build
ing uras saved. The amount of loss has not
yet been ascertained, but is estimated at
over SIOO,OOO. Several workmen are tempo
rarily thrown out of employment.
Interesting from Harrisburg.
1 Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bnllrtia.]
Habribiicro, Nov. 2.— The returns of fho
election for Supreme Judge were opened and
connted this morning in the House ot Repre
sentatives, before the Secretary of .the Com
monwealth and the Governor, a number of
citircnn being pronont. Gov.-m or Geary being
very ill, he had to be taken to the Capital in a
cab.
This morning Judge Brewster, the new
Attorney-General, appointed as Deputy Attor
ney-General Joseph Si. McClure, a voungand
promising attorney at the Harrisburg bar.
The appointment gives general satisfaction.
Last night there was a very interesting
party at the residence of Dr. Jno. H. Gihon,
the Governor's private secretary. A month or
so ago, to gratify thejraportunjties of his little
daughter, he promised that if Geary was re
elected Governor she should have a party of
her young friends'. The occasion proved to be
a sort of inauguration party, at which there
were nearly one hundred children and.a largo
number of adults, who were all highly pleased
with the brilliant little a flair.
There are four individuals now awaiting
death-warrants in Pennsylvania for conviction
of murder, namely, James Field, of Lycoming
county; William A. Black, of Butler county
Abraham Titus, of Cumberland county, and
Dr. Paul Schoeppe, of Oarlisle.|All these cases
have been placed in the Attornov-General’a
hands for report, anl the probabilities are
that the reports would have been acted upon
to-day had the Governor been in a physical
condition to attend to his executive duties. In
the case of Dr. Schoeppe there is an unusual
pressure brought to bear upon the pardoning
power for his pardon or repriove, some of the
medical fraternity being prominent in the ap
peal, on scientific grounds, and the Governor
.will give tbem a full hearing. The judgespre
siding in every case above cited have written
the Governor that they see no reason why
there should be any further legal efforts or
process for the pardon or mitigation of the
offences.
The New fork Money Market.
. (Special Despatch to the Phils. Evening Bulletin.]
New York, Nov. 2.—The money market at
the close last night was more active, with
money sharp at 7 per cent, as the final rate.
This was caused by the Broadway Bank call
ing for seven million dollars to pay the city
warrants, hut as this money was let out again
this morning, the market was rather easier,
loans being 6a7 per cent. Gold is heavy, lower,
and declining from 128 J to 127|. Sales are be
low the average amount.
Government bonds opened at a decline of
■} to 3 per cent, on last night’s closing quota
tions. They have Bince further declined,
1867’s declining to 1151. The market presents
but little speculative interest. ;
The stock market is active and feverish;
There was speculation this morning in favor
of lower paces. The absorbing features are
the Vanderbilt stocks, blew York Central run
ning from 183 to 178; Harlem, from 136, last
night, to 130; Hudson, 164 to 160; Michigan
Southern ranged from 891a88|: Northwestern,
fiSJafd. The rest of the list is dull.

Opinions of Scientific Men—A Gypsum
’ Wonder.
' 1 I from tho fiyraetwe Journal.l
Albany, October 27.—The undersigned, on
the 22d instant, visited' and examined the
“Fossil Man.” or “Sculptured Giant.” Nego
tiations for its purchase being at that time jn
progress, it was thought improper for us at
that time to express our convictions of its :
character. The sale having beet/ perfected,
w>i are now at liberty to make the following '
statement: i:
In common with all who have viewed this;
object, we were deeply impressed with its ex
traordinary appearance, and as we look upon
it our wonder at the intense excitement which
it had produced immediatciv vanished. When
wo had fully comprehended its character, the
inquiry spontaneously arose—by whom was it
made ? when and by whom placed here ? It
is not strange that it has been regarded .as a
petrifaction. The popular idea on this sub
jects vague and undefined. A stone which,
by accidental circumstances, has the form
of an organized being,is regarded as petrified/
without inquiry into the mode in which the
change has been made. It is sufficient here'
to say that the soft parts of animals are never
petrilied. Petrifaction, which commences as '
soon as the vital forces cease, is rapid. Petri
faction, which consists in a replacing of the
dissolved or removed organic matter, is slow,
often occupying years. There is no authentic
instance of petrilied flesh, nor can there bo in
the nature of things.
The object is a statue wrought by the hand'
of man, and as such is wonderful in the high
est degree. The material of which it is formed
is gypsum, and v.-as probably taken from some
of the deposits of that mineral in the county
of Onondaga. When the startle has been
raised from its present;'plater there will be a
better opportunity of examining the character
of file stone, of determining its relations to
existing gypseous strata, and of ascertaining
whether-it was wrobglit by stone or steel im
plements. lies on a bed of gravel
and clay, anjl-was covered by an alluvial for
mation of nearly four feet in depth. This lias'
every appearance of .having beeii formed after,
the statue was placed in its present position;
As h work of art, it is impressive. When it
passed from , the bands of the artist it must
have been expressive and beautiful.
We do not propose any theory in regard to
its origin. Much examination must yet be
made and various comparisons instituted be
fore any such theory can be formed. We are
informed that the owners invite the mdst
searching examination in regard to it, and we
are permitted to say that the Regents of the
University, to whom inquiries of this charac
ter have been committed 1 by the Legislature,
will soon adopt measures, evidently demanded
by public interest, to ascertain and collect all
the facts which can he gathered bearing on
the subject.

toie event. Tbechief operatore In New York Oentrnl
have not been ,*o devoid of . wisdom an to kill
tho goose which has laid eo .many golden eg%9
Tor thorn. The life of tho auriferous bird hae been
firolonpod to an Indefinite extent/ fte will bo shown
n tho Jntnre history ofthe stock. The plan of consoli
dation whs made known only at the moment tbd votfl of
tho etockholdere wm to bo taken. It differed so widely
frdm what tbo Banfruine spccnlatoxa Wall street fan
cleds that upon tho term 0 befuk made known there was a
decliMjnlfie pries Of Central from 183 to ltfLand in Hud-
BOnjPvtrfrom 175)4 to 166)3. The details oftbe election
as held to day Vill bo given In fall else
where in our columns. The consolidation
amounts simply to a of tbe
present capital stocks of both roada, with the addition of
a scrip dividend to that already issued on New York
Central, making the tola! scrip equal to the total stock.
New York Central has been put in at 207—100 stock and
107' scrip—and Hudson River at 185—lOO utock and 86
scrip. Tho total capital of the consolidated road will
thus amount to 9&AOQMO and the total scrip to $43,-
WO.OOO. Tbe name of the new line will be the Now York
Central and Hudson Biver Railroad. Tbe officers of
tha consolidated company are 0. Vanderbilt, President:
William Vanderbilt, Vice President; E.D. Worcester,
Treasurer; and Augustus Schell, Secretary. It will be
remembered that by a special act of the last Legislature
tke eighty percent* scrip of the Central road was au
thorized to be converted into stock. This privilege
seems to have been ignored to-day, so that
when the stock of the new company is mued
each share will carry an equal amount of scrip ;
jbu't. as both stock and scrip are to receive the
satpe dividends it is a virtual doubling of tho stock. An
immediate conversion of the eighty per cent, scrip
would, of course, have gone far to diminish the activity
of New York Central. By the present plan, however, a
request for theconversion of the whole scrip into stock
can be brought before the Legislature next winter, and
the price ofetock sent flying up and down the scale ac
cording as it suits tbe speculative plans
of the chief operators. The - goose has'
not, therefore, been killed, but bids fair to
live many a long day yet and lay innumerable golden
eggs for her careful owners. The announcement of the
j terms as above given greatly disappointed tbo street.
Tbe price or Central at the opening was an improvement
upon that of Saturday, but declined tinder reports that
ithe meeting bad been or would be interfered with by an
injunction. When theso reports were disproved by the
intelligence that the polls had been opened and
tlio voting was fa progress there was a rally to
the vicinity of Uhl opening prices. Although the
polls did not close at the Thirtieth street depot until
tour o’clock, the result was known on the street soon
after two o clock, for the reason that a majority of the
; stock hod been castbefore that hour for the planabovo
.given. For a time there was a semi-panic in the two
stocks, and In the general disgust of the bull operators a
large amount of stock was thrown overboard. In the
rest of the railways there had been throughout the day a
venr bfayy aud woak market. Harleai, whicn wan to
tally drarrgarded.by the consol idationists.doclincd to 136.
The Western railways, under a bearish feeling founded
on Teports of s hcayy decrease in earnings, also went
by the board, Northwestern dropping from 691 J to f.6‘,';
Bt. Paul fromCTK to 65;,; bake Shore from 32:£to89.‘ri
and Nock Island from Jo3>a to 102?,'. At this stage the
market underwent a reaction and closed at a slight im
provement upon the lowest quotations of the day. Tho
money market was easy at fire to six percent, early iu
the day, blit towards tbe close of banking hours the
Hbjittng of loans on (he declined stocks produced more
activity, and the rate was six to seven cm Government
and Block collaterals respectively.
In thogold market there was a further decline,
back to the lowest figure touched last week, viz.,
12fc/** The Ap<'rj<tione for a decline below thia figure were
not attended with success, although inrge pales were
based on tho disbursements of the Sub-Treasury and on
the government sales of gold for thomnnth.Aa will be seen
by tho advertisement elsewhere tbe, programme of tho
Hub-Treasury sales of gold and purchases of bonds for
November to tb»* surne as that of last month. Th« total
sales of gold will be eleven millions against ten millions
ofbonds purchased. The. Gold Exchange Rank pro
poses to resume business with iindiinhifcliM capital,
provided the board consents to clear its gold through
that source. In ense the board does not consent it will
remain out of btii*ine«* until DncemW 7th. the timoof
the annual meeting for the choice of directors.
Loans of cash gold were made at six to three per cent’,
for carrying.
The government bond market sympathized with the
movement in gold, and yielded a half to three-quarters
per cent, upon the leading issues.

■ Kew Yoiik, Nov. 2.—The election is pro
gressing very quietly, though quite' a large
vote Is Being thrown. Tho weather is delight
ful. Only a few Sghts have occurred thus far,
and hut one or two arrests have been made
for Illegal .voting. A* large omnibus, with six
horses attached; is at the City HfQl ready to
carry police wherever their services are re
quired. The excitement, such as it is, is con,
lined entirely to the local ticket.
: It is said Horace Greeley is running largely
ahead of bis ticket. ! ■
in Brooklyn it is also very quiet, though an
unusually heavy vote is being cast for such an
unimportant election. It is esttniated that
oyer 40,000 votes will bo polled there. The
Evening Democrat claims 14,000 majority on
the State ticket. ’ :
In Jersey City the election is progressing
quietly, the contest heing mainly on City
Clerk. There being two TJeinocratic candi
dates and no Repubßcan, there is Considerable
feeling on that issue.
The election, to-day, is proceeding very
quietly.

Further Depression in the Market
another panic threatened
THE RAILROAD CONSOLIDATION
The Clearing House and Cold Room
GOVERNMENT GOLD SALES
f Special Dwratch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin. J ■
New Yoi:k, Nov. 2.—There was another
downward plunge in prices in the Gold Room
and on the Stock Exchange this morning.
The depression is very general, ancl for a time
the share market on Stock Exchange was on
.the,verge of another panic. There was a
great desire to sell almost everything, anil at
the lowest point of the morning the quota
tions were JowCr than at any time since the
memorable panic of Friday, September 24th.
As the day wore along there was some re
covery from the extreme depression of the
morning and a steadier feeling prevailed, al
though the markets are generally feverish.
The consolidation of the New Fork Central
and Hudson Biver Companies continues the
great topic, and its merits are much discussed.
It is believed that Vanderbilt looked more to
his reputation as a railway manager than to
the speculative interests of Wall street. The
only new feature in the Vanderbilt Consolida
tion is that Central stockholders are to receive
one and eight-tenths per cent, in cash to
equalize the time between the Central and
Hudson dividends.
The Gold Exchange Bank proposes to re
sume business as a Clearing House on a dimin
ished capital of $2!)0,000, but the Gold Room
has not yet taken any action on it.
At the Government sales of gold to-day, the
bids aggregated »2.115,000, ranging from 126.89
to 127.7*J. Foreign Exchange is dull at 109 for
sixty-day hills. Government Bonds after
wards recovered slightly.
The price for Gold'to-dav is the lowest
reached since 1865, being 127 f.
Southern State, securities are quiet and
steady.
THE COURTS.
The Evans Homicide.
Over and Terminer —Judges Peirce and
Paxton, —MarshallK, Evans was put on trial
this morning charged with the murder of his
father, Thomas L. Evans.
The prisoner, as he sat in the dock, was com
posed, and gave no indication of the' insanity
which it is said caused the murder. The only
exception to this was when the clerk informed
him that he was “ now set to the bar for trial,”
and instructed him in regard to his right to
.challenge; He looked at the clerk vacantly,
his head resting on his hand, the arm being
supported by the elbow on the knee. /
The prisoner was represented by C. H. T.
Collis and Hon. "Win. S. Strong.
District Attorney Gibbons opened the case
for the Commonwealth, after which Dr.
Shapleigh testified that he found five gun
shots in the body of Mr. Evans, and described
them. One wound passed through the spleen
and was necessarily fatal. He. described in
detail all the wounds.
Miss Silena A. Belcher sworn—On the 21th
day of August last I resided at No. 306 South
Tenth street; I was there the day Thomas L.
Evans lost his life; at a quarter or twenty
minutes ofjeight o'clock we were all at the
breakfast table, when Marshall Evans came
down to breakfast; Thomas L., Mary S.,
Bachaei, Julia Evans and myself were at the
breakfast table down stairs in. the
dining-room; we bad just sat down whon
Marshall came down; we had all left the table
when Mr, Evans was shot; I was just going
into the pautTy and heard the shooting; heard
four or live shots; came out and found Mr.
Evans holding on to the pantry door ; and he
then fell info the dining-room door; saw no one
there trat his son Marshall standing intho
entry; he looked very wild; Ins eyes larger
than usual; he did not speak a word; ’he was
looking at me trying to support his father;
when he stood in the entry he had a pistol, still
aiming it at his father; I supported his father
until a colored man came in and helped me to
convey him to the parlol; he lived perhaps
twenty minutes.
Cross-examined—l had charge of the house
hold arrangements. The witness described
tlie interior arrangements of the house, the
several bed-rooms and their occupants.
Rachel S. Evans, a sister- of the prisoner,
testified that she heard the shooting : looked
intc. the vestibule and saw Marshall firing;
raw her father supported by Miss Belcher and
the colored man. -
Th'c ease was not concluded when our report
closed.

■: snry.' - ;
ISpoflal pesvatehto the Phila. Evening BnlleOn ]
- Wxshinoton, Nov. 2.— -The report of Hon.
8./W. Clarke,. Third Auditor of the Treasury,
has. been submitted to Secretary Boutwell.
It is an exceedingly interesting and valuable
document.' .The wort done in this Bureau
during the last fiscal year ■was immense, as
will be seen by the following exhibit: The
number of requisitions drawn, on the Secre
tary of "War and the . Secretary
of the Interior for the year ending June 30th,
1809, is 4,773, amounting to $79,220,168 04, and
for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending
with 1870, $23,799,302 68. The amount
of sounter requisitions . drawn on
sundry persons indebted to the Government
in favor of the Treasurer of the United Staten
(luring the year Was $12,390,968 87, and for the
first quarter of the present fiscal year ending
Sept. 30,1869, $3,454.538 49. During the year
the office settled 19,044 accounts, involving
$157,189,926 03. Of this sum $117,504,508 64
krere for the Quartermaster’s accounts, and
$20,220,355 07 forthe Pension Agents’accounts.
There are still unsettled 23,141 accounts, in
volving $69,292,034 54. During the year
upwards of sixty thousand letters were
written. The reform in tho office has
been radical, and the results show
that it has been beneficial to the public
service. There were 360 clerks in the Bureau
when Mr. Clarke took charge. Since then the
force has been reduced to 250, and yet the
work progresses quite as rapidly as before the
reduction. The- Auditor recommends the
change in the compensation of the clerks, so
that the pay shall correspond with the merit of
the clerk. If the clerk can perform second,
third or fourth-class duties, the Auditor thinks
he should receive pay accordingly. By this
means more work will be performed by a less
number of clerks, but they will be better paid/
This system, he believes, would have the ef
fect of quieting the clamor for twenty per cent,
additional compensation. Quito a compliment
is paid to the clerks in this office. In regard
to tho ladies, the Auditor says that they are
prompt to duty, and that they are attentive
and industrious in its performance, and above
reproach. The gentlemen are sober,
moral, intelligent, and faithful observants of
all the rules prescribed for their government,
and earnest in their labor, with, the closets ap
plication and the most perfect ardor. One
clerk (Colonel Vinson) is employed in the of
fice, who is eiglity-four years old, haviug re
tained his position since 1807. He is a native
of Philadelphia.
Pahis, Nov. 2.— The newly appointed Am
bassador from Prussia arrived to-day. A great

Tlic Consolidation of the Mew York Cen
tro! and Hudson River Railroads.
[Special Despatch to the Philada: Evening Bulletin.]
New York, Nov. 2.—The official announce
ment in regard to the consolidation of the
New York Central and Hudson River Rail
roads has not yet been made. It is some
what in the fog in regard to the details of the
matter, or as to how the ' consolidated stock
will be called in the Exchange. The holder
of one hundred shares of Central will receive
in addition one hundred and seven shares of
the scrip and $lBO in cash.
The last dividend on the Central was paid
in August, and on Hudson in Oetober, and
this SlBO in cash on Central is to be paid with
a yiew of equalizing the time of the dividends'
between,the two stocks. The holders of 100
shares of Hudson will receive in addition 85
shares of scnp, and the old 80 percent, scrip
on Central will be oonverted into the consoli
dated scrip of the new company, to be called,
the New York Central ana Hudson River R.
R.Co. Its contemplated idea is to shortly detach
the scrip from the stock, and have them called
separately at the Stock Exchange; the scrip
is entitled to equal dividends with the consoli
dated stock, and it is stated that the law which
legalized the old 80 per cent, scrip, also pro
vides for any further issues of such as the one
just made, and the directors, therefore, can, at
any moment, convert the scrip into stock.
I'lie stock market at the one o’clock board
was weak in Vanderbilt shares. Central de
clined to 1801, Hudson to 10'-. Western shares
aro generally steady at about the prices cur
rent just previous,to the session. After the call
New York Central advanced to 118], Hudson
River to 101. Gold dull, at 1272 to 1274.
