'* STAVE TTKAXCES. . '
; ' The announcement of the State Treas
that he is now. to pay tbe five per cent
loan’, due July I,lBft Is a new proof of. the
excellent condition of the State
These wishing their bonds redeemed
due can have it done on the first andtldrd
‘{Saturdays of each month. Tins plan of. ant
•inating the payment of a State debt is some
. thtogoieW inthe history of our country. In
former times, and'especially imder Democratic
administrations, debts d™, or past due couW
•nly lie paid by contracting new debts of equal
•r greater amount. But now the
Kvenue in the Treasury not only enables the
Commissioners of the Sinking Fund to pay the
interest on the whole debt, and the principal as
last as it matures, but even to offer to pay tha
which does not mature for eight months.
In the days of the old Democratic State ad
) ministrations, not a year passed without a
’ lame addition to the debt. The old Boaid of
' Canal Commissioners used to be the means of
♦* overloading the peqple with merely to
* ** enable an' army of cftce-holders
' Jk' and swindlers or drones of all Mnds, to live in
* -enteel.iiUeness or to grow rich ..Without any
, visible labor. In this way, with a population
scarcely half as large as it has now, Pennsyl
-4 vania was burdened with a debt of over forty
jniUions of dollars. In the last nine years of
Republican administration, this debt has been
reduced to thirty-three millions,
• and noW > the Commissioners of the
tLdnff Fund find that • the, bonds,
d 0 not mature fast enough' for the funds
zin their han.ds, aud are begging the State credi
. tors to let them pay them eight months m ad
vance. No doubt our Democratic politicians
v will consider this a dreadful piece of impro
prtety. Taken in connection with the repeal
of the tax on real estate, made also by a Re
tmhlican administration, it is a shocking viola
tion of the good old fashions established in the
Porter, Bigler and Packer days. It is as offen
sive, in Democratic eyes, as President' Grant's
reduction of the national debt, which is going
eh at the rate of about one hundred millions a
During the last nine years, while this reduc
tion of the debt of Pennsylvania has been go
ing on, the debt of nearly every other State
has been increased. New York rejoices now
ih a debt of fifty-two millions-an, increase of
Eighteen millions. Pennsylvania, indeed, is
almost the only State-whose revenues increase
in greater ratio than the expenditures. The
development of the wealth of the State is per
haps better illustrated by this fact than by sta
tistics of population, improvements, commerce
and manufactures. It must be remembered,
moreover, that dining four of the last nine
years, a terrible war taxed tißfcresources of the
' ‘ people and the government of Pennsylvania
\ enormously. But, thanks to Republican policy,
\ ibe war brought on by Democrats was brought
to a successful end, and now Republican policy
is bringing to. an end the debt created by Dem
♦cratic administrations.
\ another iesso.v.
Yesterday another serious railroad accident
■was reported, arising from the old cause of a
mis-placed switch. The accident occurred at
Chatham Four Corners, on the Albany and
Boston Road, resulting in the destruction of
*w© locomotives, and the tearing up of the
track so as to delay, the travel and business of.
two ■ intersecting roads. The “mis-placed
switch” did not happen to kill anybody this
time, hut merely inflicted, a heavy pecuniary
loss upon the railroad company. How many
safety-switches could have been put down on
the Albany and Boston road for the money
that will he spent in repairing the damage of
0 this single accident, we do not know. It
appears that the same switch which caused this
disaster had already been tampered with, and
tuht. the railroad company considered the pro
tection of their property and passengers at that
particular point as worth a reward of $lO,OOO
for the detection of the author of the previous
Misplacement. And yet the expenditure of a
couple of hundred dollars would have secured
the companv from the possibility of any such
accident, by substituting for this misplaced
switch Wharton’s Safety Switch, which cannot
Joe misplaced. _
■ ■ Hundreds of thousands of people and mil
lions of dollars’ worth of property ,are con
stantly passing over the numerous railroads oi
this country, day and night, and whatever sense
cif sectirity is enjoyed arises far more from that
indifference which comes of constant use than
from any intelligent oonsciousness that there
is no danger. There always is aiid must be
danger in railway traveling. Many causes ot
accidents exist'Which, in the very nature of
things, cannot be ’ absolutely provided against,
• The most conscientious aud careful engine
driver will relax his vigilance; at. times, over
«®me by fatigue or distracted with some
gomd anxiety or trouble. A long-hidden flaw
}n a rail or a flange or an axle will yield sud
denly f<>. the continued strain upon it; a signal
•ill fail to tell the story of danger; the dark
\ »ess of night will hide some unsuspected" ob-
Yl glm ction from the keenest look-out; and so on
J* tWouehthe long catalogue of causes which so
Wiemiently result in terrible losses of life and
Mouerty upon-the- railroads of all countries.
.•a' 4 Bur these' sources of unavoidable risk
a „ d danger should only stimulate
to fresh enterp rise and energy and liberality m
■' 9 >
against-’ those j .otsTr accidents Which
c«n be avoided. In ascertain anfl. practical
sense, no human contrivance is absolutely per
ffio that there 6 ho condition , of
things under which it .will fail to produce
its legitimate results, and in guarding against
these constantly-recurring switch-accidents on
our railways, pre presume that it will not be
claimed that there is no possible way in which
human malice might not contrive to produce
an accident even with the. Wharton switch.
But when the;chances of accident can be re
duced to the very lowest: point, so that they
become scarcely appreciable, it .is the dear
duty of every railroad company to give the
public the full benefit of tbe contrivance. The,
people, through their , Legislatures, convey
most valuable privileges to these . tofpprations,
and have a clear right to the fullest protection
from them in return, both for themselves and
for their property.. This Simple principle is, of
course, everywhere recognized, and, ra many
ways-, very efficiently acted upon. But the
best-appointed and best-managed road in 1g»
country is still open to much improvement,
improvement which Is constantly going on,
and which will, at some future .day, PP.fr- Ame
rican railroading first in the competition ofthe
world. Those who manage these great high
ways of human travel and business cannot, be
too often or too strongly reminded that their
first consideration should always be for the
safety of their customers, and these switch,
accidents, not a tithe of which ever find their
way into the public prints, constitute one of
the best practical reminders of this duty that
can he furnished.
the bibee in PCBBie SCHOOL.
The exclusion of the Bible from the public
schools of Cincinnati is backward step
•whichwe hope will not be followed m othe
cities. Apart from the purely religious aspect
of the question, there is a com ®
nearly equal value in the relation 3 3
between the Bible and civilizatic ’ c
trines of the new testament form the foundar
tion npon which modem civilization rests; and
only those nations thatkave bruit upon that
basis’ are to-day ruling the earth. All the
achievements of science and art which elevate
and ennoble mankind, and minister to their de
mands, are 'tlie products of; a, condition of So
ciety that is the direct result of the
influence of Christian doctrines. .And
more than this; precisely as a free
Bible has been given to a people, so
have they asph-ed to purerliberty. The most
advanced and enlightened nations, -the freest
nations in existence, are those in which the
people have unrestrained access to the Scrip
tures. Political liberty and an open Bible go
hand in hand; and the primary act of a nation
which attains the first, is to demand the second.
The quick action of the Spaniards after Isa
bella’s dethronement illustrates this truth. The
masons for this are evident. The Biblm pro
claims the universal equality of men before
their- Creator, and it teaches principles of
morality which tend to purify and refine, and
consistent practice of which, by everybody,
would bring human society to absolute perfec
tion. It is of the. highest importance,
then, • that this guide-book should be
read by all, but especially that its precepts
should be taught to the children who one day
are to compose society. The opponents of
Bible instruction in the public schools ground
their objections upon the theory that simple
troth, without ecclesiastical interpretation, is
dangerous. In other words, that their con
struction of Scripture theories is the correct
one, and that without this they will lead to
pernicious errors. This doctrine is held by one
denomination only; all the others are anxious to
have the Bible read in the schools, and are
willing to leave doctrinal instruction to the
churches and Sunday schools, where it. pro
perly belongs.. We think that ruitranimeled
truth need never fear to run the risk of mis
construction, and a Church which sincerely be
lieves its doctrines to be in exact accordance with
the Scriptures ought not apprehend any dan
ger from the closest; familiarity of ’ its
members with the source ot its, existence. • If
the Bible teaches its principles, why not per
mit the pebple to drink sometimes from the
fountain head ? The public school system
itself is an offspring of a free Bible. Oidy the
people who have enjoyed the benefits of largest
enlightenment could devise and execute a
method by which the avenues to intelligence
are freely opened to all mankind. Where the
principles of the opponents of an open Scrip
ture are in general practice, there are no free
school systems, but the people accept religious
instruction without understanding, Here, we
five to every denomination perfect
freedom to carry on its work of
evangelization as it . pleases, without
interference; but we want to give to our chil
dren such education as will fit them not only
for the intelligent'reception of religious truth,
but will make them valuable members of
society, and enable them to comprehend ex
actly the basis upon which the fabric of
society rests. The day for blind, unreasoning
belief in anything has passed away forever, in
this country. If religion .will not bear the
scrutiny of keenest intelligence, it is worth
less. But we know that it will; and we hope
the ’ day is far /distant when Christian
men will unite with atheists and infidels in
keepin" the children of - the land in ignorance
of the doctrines of the Bible. We apprehend
that the struggle which has just ended in Cin
cinnati is to be begun m other cities. If it is
inaugurated here we hope to have eveiy citi
zen who recognizes the Scriptures as the in
spiration of all human law, and as the guide
to that moral excellence without which society
would crumble to pieces, ranged upon the side
of a free Bible, no matter whether one de
nomination or another claims his allegiance.
Or whether it is claimed by none.
KAJK REtATlOSif* OF THE NAVY.
We call attention to a very clear and impar
tial discussion, in another column> ot a subject
■wlncli has excited much interest in the Navy,
and which directly affects the interests of the
public service and the cause of humanity. The
relations between the stall and line officeis ot
the Nasi' have long been the ground of very
animated, and oftenacrimonioas dispute, and
it is not easy to say v'lien or how it will be
practically settled. But tlift particular aspect,
of this conllict of rank which was presentedby
the court-martial of Surgeon Green touches
the personal interests of the common sailor and
marine, as well as the professional dignity and
sensitiveness of the medical and military o fl
eers of the Navy . Our correspondent, an offi
cer of high position and along life-time of expe
rience in the Navy, presents this interest
ing subject in Its truer bearings, and it is diffi
cult to understand how any intelligent court
martial could have arrived at apy ditlerent con_

elusion. There can be no proper discipline or
harmony in the Navy, if a domtoanding ofheer
can arbitrarily reverse the professional judg
ment of his surgeon, and order men on duty
because he considers them fit for it, when his
surgeon; educated and appointed for the special
purpose,, and sworn to a faithful discharge; of
his duties, makes his official report that they
are unfit for duty. For the protection of t¥
Crewsy and the proper, harhooniOUs working of.
the ships of our Nayy, it is extremely important
that such conflfCts of authority ap resulted m the
court-martial of Surgeon Green, should he
made impossible, by Congressional legislation;
©UR MftWMBI* POMCE.
1 A robbery tookplaceion .Tuesday night, in
the neighborhood of Eighth iaha Walnut streets,
which admirably illustrates the efficiency of the
Fox police. There is probably ho single block
in Philadelphia which is, theoretically, so
thoroughly policed as Eighth street, between
Chestnut and Walnut streets. It is a sort el
“cross-roads” for several different beats, and in
cludes many special attractions for Sir. Eox s
uniformed comer-loungers. ; And jet on ® ot
the stores on this block wa3 entered ‘by three
men, who, with considerable difficulty and de
lay, removed the transom over the front
door, went in and' helped them
selves to a considerable - quantity of val
uable goods, while a confederate stood
guard outside, and then left with their booty,
quite unnoticed and unmolested. As a gen
eral rule it is best for the public peace that Sin
Fox’s police sliouldkeep out of tlie way as
much as possible , but, unless the operators in
this case were very particular friends of tne
police of that neighborhood, it might have
been/expected that they would have taken
some notice of a robbery thus successfully per
petrated under their , very noses. We are
aware that it does not do for a policeman to
be too vigilant or energetic under the present
administration, but there must be some limit,
to stupidity, ignorance and neglect of duty.
High Constable Clark’s case, in which decapi
tation followed so promptly upon his gallant
attempt to quell tlie murderous Democrauc
riot at Fifth and Chestnut streets, has proba
bly acted as a wholesome check upon auy cx
.ceptional officers who, may have indulged
vague notions - that the duties of a policeman
demanded courage, intelligence and vigilance.
But the timely warning of Mr. Clark’s case
should not be carried too far. The time of the
Fox police, as we most gratefully believe, is
short. By the first of February we trust that
they will have received from Harrisburg their
official notice to quit. Meantime we must
“suffer and be strong.”. A metropolitan police
will lift both Mr. Fox and the people of Phila
delphia out of a sea of troubles, for which let
us be devoutly thankful.
In liis reply to the delegation from the Louis
ville Convention, yesterday, President Grant
remarked that be did not wish to occupy his
present position for a second term.-'. The ob
servation has not the merit of originality, for
vve believe it has been made, not, only by .every
President,but on diver's occasions by other men
who have held important offices; But President
Grant very likely expressed his honest senti
ments when he made this, statement. He did
not seek the position in the-first place, and I
since he has occupied it he has shared the fate j
of all prominent public men, and been j
made the object of the foulest scan
dal, the grossest ..personal abuse, and
bis conduct of the government has
been ldSkrepresented cruelly and shamefully.
We can readily imagine that a man of his char
acter would be tired of such heavy honors, and
be ready to return to the privacy and repose
of civil life. But because lie does not aspire
to the honor the people will be anxious to con
fer it upon him; and this anxiety will be
greater in proportion to the popular belief in
his sincerity. -It is such a rare thing to find an
American who feels genuine reluctance to ac
cept the Presidency, that it will be worthwhile
to honor him conspicuously. It is rather early
to make a nomination for the next Presidency,
but General Walbridge undoubtedly expressed
the popular opinion when he intimated that
Grant is the coming man.
Roman rascals are Ingenious. In . Civita
Veccliia a brigand, guilty of numerous mur
ders, was lately missed from the prison, but
the police, after a raid on the haunts of .crime,
succeeded in effecting his recapture. " The man
now avers that he did not break out of prison,
but was taken out by an angel, whom the Ma
donna, touched by his sufferings, sent to de
liver him. He demands an inquiry into the
facts and a judicial recognition of the miracle.
Whether this plea will avail or not, we do not
know; but if the sagacious brigand can make
out anything like a case for himself, it is pro
bable that the Roman authorities will permit
him to enjoy his freedom. our own Haggerty
will be likely to regret that he does not live
. under Roman law when he hears of this; but
he can comfort himself with reflections upon
the blessedness of the law of compensation, for
while our Judges and juries have not Roman
credulity, our policemen have not Roman ef
ficiency. Mr. Haggerty's chances are about
even witlflliose of the miraculous brigand.;

Fortress Monroe, Nov. 3.— Considerable
excitement was occasioned in Norfolk on
Tuesday in judicial circles in relation to the
trial of’ George Scullatus, the policeman who
sonic time since shot a soldier, ohe of the Post
Guard, as alleged, in self-defence. The case
was to come up on Monday morning, in the
Corporation Court, before Judge 11.11. Foster,
but an order from General Canby to the Post
Commander, and C. H. Porter, the -Common
wealth’s Attorney, to have the prisoner tried
by a military commission, put a new face on
the matter. The counsel tor the prisoner de
manded that the trial should proceed, but the
Attorney for the Commonwealth asked that a
uolk prosequi might be entered. The pris
oner’s counsel urged the right of their client to
a trial, and that if the nolle pnxequi was
granted that he should be discharged.
The gentlemen . then respectively made
strong appeals to the Court to disregard the
order of Gen. Cauby in the premises, quoting
from decisions rendered by ’Judge Chase to
sustain their point. The Commonwealth’s At
torney, on the other hand, contended that the
reconstruction acts were the law in Virginia
nntil tho -State is admitted by Congress, - and
that it was optional with Gen. Canby whether
the prisoner should be tried by the civil or
military eonrt. After hearing the argument
on both.sides at some length, Judge Foster re
marked, though the interference was repug
iiaut to bis ideas of justice,at the same time he
recognized tho authority of the military, uc
nied the motion to enter a nolle profxqut, or
dered the mure discharged and further pro
ceedings discontinued. /
This is the first case that lias been taken
froin the civil c ourts to be tried by the liiili
tarv-in this vicinity, and necessarily creates
considerable feeling among all parties; but as
the offence was committed against the mili
tary, Gen. Canby decides that it shall be tried
by them. ,< ' ,
A movement has been inaugurated by the
oystemien In this vicinity for the purpose of

Jaw as it now- stands, the oysters are taxed no
less than live different times. The oyster in

able tax upon these bivalves, they think that
forbearance lifts c*j*Lsc<lto be a virtue, autl ftfe
going to try to remedy the matter. , ■

New York Money Market
[From tho New York Herald of to-day.]
Wednesday,Nov. 3.—lt will be gratifying to every
commercial and financial interest to'learn that the
miiTement of th** Western crop», which has been *a> long
-delayed bv the spoculathv interference of the wheat
'gntuldiTs, has at length begun, and prospect of
a full resumption of the busiuvwt in the great staples of
flour and grain is no illusive on*’. , Some iutimatiun of
the fiict was given vt>teniny in the tetter demand for
money, although at th** time it'wit* supposed that the.
demand* of the City- -Treasury for fund/, to
iiurt t the pjivnn nt of certain bonds falling due Novem
ber 1, was tins n»al secret of the activity. A little reflec
tion ought to have" febmvu, imweveri that tho require
ment* «d only a 'lVw imltiutjfr c«*uld nut lutvo V't-en the
full and suf&dt'nl cauie thereof. Thu slight activity
thtiß produced was aggravated by the doznaud
f«»r tuhds fur renuttatico westward. The
suspension in the shipments of the crops was
f'rjgiually upon the lower price ef gold, the
looking for a more ffaTorablcmarketto evil upon,
and being dipappoi»ted by the aharp dovmwurd tom
which gold ha* t.iken within the past week In letting,
the wheat go at last they have repeated the example ao'.
often set for them in all commodities which are the sub
ject of spt-cubliuu. Wheu gold was up and wheat was
high, compared with present priced, they
Mould nat sell. Like the great majority
of speculators, they sell only when the mar
ket bar, bad a gnat decline. Whatever the cause or
reason, it is the sourcunf great satisfaction that the
crop are in motion. Tho business of the country
consist* of a zeueru! system of circulation of com
modities, A deadlock in any brunch tends to clog
the whole stream. The general trade of the country
lias been enGt-ring from the stagnation in the grain,
market. The movement of the crops means general
activity all around, the better collection of Western
debts, a new stimulus to Eastern, enterprise and a
bolder and more confident feeling oh the part of the
capitalists and money-lenders, whoso funds arc tho
foundation ef commerce. The money' market was active
at eevou per' cent, until toward th** close of banking
hours, when balances were very freely offering, show
ing that the activity, although increased, - i* notsufll
cient to engage thu capital ot theUispo>al of the street.
In fact. It remains * to be seen , whether
with the decreased -valuation of the crop*
and' with the strong resources of . our
bank?, their surplus last week being over S2O.OUQA», the
drain to move the grain c£u be sufticient to create more
than a t#vi-u percent.money market. To the govern
meut dealers to-daj* the rate was quite irregular.and.
seme loans were quoted as low as five per cent. .Com
mercial paper was a little more current, but rates re
mained unchanged. Foreign exchange was steady
unci dull at 106% to 109, fur prime bankers’
sixty-day, and Kfc%alUo for *ight sterling. Tho
changed aspect of affairs produced by
the release of the crops and their movement to an east
ern market was visible iu marly all tho departments of
business. Thus, a* soon as.the facts were made known
in the Gold Room, and innutiriputiotLof. the effects of
revived produce shipments to gold dropped
to The market was already heavy and sus
ceptiblcof a decline, owiug to the -steady disburse-.*
moot of coin interest from tty** Treasury m payment
of - the November coupons and the prospective gov
ernment talc* during the month. Ttetumndanceof gold
upou the market was further reflected hi the carrying
rates to-day, which ranged from five per e**nt. to.seven
p«r cent., the latter figure.in some inst.mwa, being paid
m gold—equivah'ut to nine mid ft. half percent. The de
cline.in gold ’ was' !*•!-> .operative upon the govern
ment market tlian might have ln’en expected, but
the steadier freliug in the latter was duo to free
purchrse- to cover speculative sales, the lower price
oi'bonds allowing profitable ntargla to-hnyers fur de
livery. The government speculator* arc content with a
small difference as ci-mpared with stock top**cuhitor*, the
amotlnt inv'ulvcu being propurtionately great, however,.
and rendering operations ju-sUtsicmunenittvi-. rhe»>< s

i A private letter from Gen. Jordan, lately
received, speaks in the highest terms of the
bravery, the docility, and tho fidelity of the'
negroes in his corps of the Cuban army. Tho
white soldiers serve with them without pro
test, arid so slight is tho prejudice of color,
that in many cases the iion-cotumissioned
officers arei selected from the blacks,
arid their officers are obeyed T>y white as
well as black soldiers; In some cases coin
missions are held by miilattoeS, who meet with
,io trouble in governing their white subordi
nates. Gen. Jordan says the negro’ troops,
fight as well as their lighter comrades, and
sometimes better? His escort are all blacks;
and are eomrrianded by a negro sergeant, a
splendid soldier. : •
In regard to the wants of the Cuban annyj
Gen. Jordan ’expresses himself plainly. There
was a time when he saw bo necessity for tak
ing American soldiers to Cuba to fight her
battles. He now thinks tliat 2,300 or 3,000
good men, who have seen service in our
armies, are essential to the success of the in
surgents. They are needed as a nucleus around
which to organize corps of men,to lie rendered
efficient by good example. With this number
of trusty Americans, and a liberal supply qf
arms and ammunition,he is confident that the
independence of Cuba most soon he
gained, and that, too, a without de
parture from tlie mode of warfare followed
from the beginning of the revolution b.v the
patriots. They have always acted as civilized
people, while the Spaniards have pursued
a most barbarous course. They liave butch
ered their prisoners, and have even mas
sacred women and children in their attempts
to crush the spirit of rebellion. The writer
speaks glowingly of the salubrious climate of
Cuba, its splendid harbors, its forests of tim
ber, and its fertile soil, and holds that it were
a shame for our Government to allow this
treasure to slip through its fingers at the very
time when . possession can be most easily
secured.
The. Purchase of St. Domingo.
[Prom tlie Boston Herald, j ■
Wahuirgtoe, Nov. 2. —During the week
important State papers have been received
from General Babcock, who is still remaining
in the island, having, returned about the first
of October in the character of United States
Commissioner,, by order of the President.
These papers undoubtedly cover the terms
of the negotiation entered into by General
Babcock with President Baez, which
will be considered in detail by the Cabinet
during the coming -week. There will be some
definite action taken by the Administration
prior to the sailing of the steamer for St.
Domingo next week, in order that she may
take out further.instructions to Gen. Babcock.
These will probably terminate negotiations,
and the General will'return by the next trip
of the steamer, by the Ist of December.
The terms are said to be highly
favorable, and perfectly satisfactory to
Bibcock, as .well as the Presi
dents of both conntfie.s. It is believed that the
Island of St. Domingo will be one of the States
of this Union before - the first of .January.
Joseph Currier, the Dominican Consul,, left
this city a week ago for St. Domingo and
Monte Cristo to kbld interviews with officials
of both countries onthesubjectof annexation,
as well as to secure the title to some 2,000 acres
oflaml granted him by the Dominican Go
vernmeut to forward the interests of com
merce between New York and the port of
Monte Cristo.
Among those mentioned as composing tlie
party of Congressmen who leave for St. Do
mingo next week are Gen. Butler, Senator
Cole, Genera] Garfield, the Hon. James
Brooks, Senator Casseriv, and others. Gen.
Banks is expected to arrive from Europe ere

ACCIDENT ON THE UNION FACIFIC
Five Perseus Killed mid Several Injured.
(From thaCheyenue (Wy.l Argus, Oct. 301
We are indebted to Mr Gilmer, a fornier
resident ot’ this city, for the information of a
terrible railroad accident which occurred yes
terday on the Union Pacific Railroad, be
tween Evanston and Wasatch. The
express train from the Ernst got
oft from the track at a point betweeu
those twoplaoes.and an engine wits despatched
to assist the train upon the track, and put it
under motion. After this was done, and the
engine was about to be started backward the
freight train front the West came thundering
‘ arouinl a sharp curve in the road, coming in
collision .with the engine, and resulting
in the death of five persons on . board
of the train, and injuring many
more. One little child was badly scalded, and
i our informant states that quite a number on
board the train had limbs broken, and were
otherwise injured. Had it not been for the
engine between the two trains, the loss of life
would undoubtedly have been much greater.
The engineers and, firemen jumped from their
engines and were uninjured.. We shall pro
bably be able to give a more definite and de
tailed account of the unfortunate occurrence
to-morrow.
Serious lllnesa of Major-General Wool.
;, We regret that we are compelled'to an
nounce that Major-General John E. Wool is
Seriously ill and grave apprehensions are
felt in regard to’his recovery. The old hero’s
physical powers have for some time back
been undergoing a gradual prostration,
and this, coupled with the accident
which he suffered on Saturday afternoon
last, has caused great uneasiness among
his relatives and near friends. This morning,
between 10 and 11 o’clock, those who were
gathered aroundhis bedside were momentarily
expecting him to breathe his last, hut by the
tjmely arrival of big physicians ’ that calamity
• was, temporarily at least, averted. The Gen
eral continued in a comatose state for about an
hour, when he partially revived, and at this

Iriiian SrtiMEß.—Ono of our weather-wise
friends gave us apredictieri, last'week, that:
:‘- Indirin Suhnner’ would commence to-day;
and the- prophetess has been vindicated by the
arrival of the promised lovely season,promptly
on time. October did not do herself muen
credit in the way of autumnal weather., She
came ip with the roaring; hurly-hUrly of ;
!the great freshet, and, indriiged most
of her days with a sullen, cheerless.Bort of
sky, winds, and even nipping frosts,most
unbecoming that favorite month of the year..
■Once br twice„she smiled out with real good
!humor, jristto show what she could do, and
that she knew what was expected of bor; but
forthe.most part she was a very Jarndyce of
months, with , “the wind in the east” m the
most unpleasant fashion.
: November is determined to do better, and
the Indian Bmnmer which we are now enjoy
ing is all our fancy painted .it., Tho air Is
bland and genial; the, skies are, clear; the
landscapes all around Philadelphia are yelled,
in the thin, soft haze which, gives them the'
peculiar dreamy beauty which belongs to the
season, find the animated and' vegetable crea
'tures that were just composing themselves for
their Winter shrouds have brightened up to
enjoy their new though brief lease of life.
; Indian Summer is one of the old “institu
tions” of this part of the country filled with a'
peculiar enjoyment, arid it comes, this year,
with special gratefulness, after the rough
winds aRd cold rains of the past month. This
welcome “spell” of fine weather took its name
from the old Indian tradition, familiar to our
early fathere, that there was always a second
summer of nine days, just before winter
set in. The Indians calculated upon
its certain reenn;ence as the period
for their corn harvest. It was looked for;
usually, the last week in November; but,
with other climatic changes, it now usually
arrives a few weeks sooner. In the old (jays
of Philadelphia it was expected in the latter
days of the month, and tlie annual market fair
was held on tlie last Wednesday of November,
because it Wak supposed to be most likely
to ensure goodiweatuer for travelers and visi
tors. ■ - „ ,
’ .The Jndian Summer fair was one of the
great festive occasions in Philadelphia, from
1750 until it was abolished in 1787, and we can
not Close our brief notice of the delijghtful sea
son which We arehow enjoying 'better than
by quoting the ijuaint proclamation by which
this annual fair was wontjtotoe Opened: It ran
thus :“O yez.’ O yez! O ygz ! Silence is com
manded'while the Fair is proclaiming, under
pain of punishment'! A! B, Esq., Mayor of tho
city of Philadelnhia,doth hereby,in the King’s
name, Strictly charge and command all per
sons trading and negotiating within the Fair
to ieepthe King’s peace, and that no person
ptesume to set up any booth or stall , for the.
-Vending.ofstrong liquors within this Fair—
that, none cany any unlawful weapon, or
gallop or strain horses within the built part of
the city. And if any person be hurt by
another; let him repair to the Mayor here
present. God save tlie King!” 4
! Seelim; Boors Avxographs.—A man who
is known as William Emerson, Samuel R.
Hampton, M. !>., and Samuel Hawiev, M.D.,
was arrested yesterday afternoon by Detec
tives Franklin and Tryon, upon the charge of
obtaining money under false representations
by .selling what purported-to be autograph let
ters of Washington,.Teft'erson, and other dis
tinguished persons. He would obtain, by
some means, a genuine letter and
then trace it on a sheet of paper,
which he stained with coffee-grounds to give
it the appearance of age. The bogus letter
would be inclosed in a note and addressed to
some gentleman who had a fine private
library. The note stated that the writer was
in want of money and if the recipient desired
the autograph letter he could .send money to_
a certain address. He received a number ot
replies containing remittances varying from
$lO to $l3, the letters being addressed
to several postoffices within a few miles of this
city. In 1858 he was arrested by Detective
Franklin for operating in this manner, and
after a hearing before Mayor Henry was held
to bail to appear when wanted. He then dis
appeared from the city and turned up in Cam
den. In 11411 he wrote letters to England, in
the name of “ Emma Hardirige,” D representing
that her husband had died, that she was in
destitute circumstances, that she had a col
lection of autograph letters, and if any were
wanted to address her, care of Dr. Hawley.
To these letters he got several replies contain
ing money. M ore recently he wroto
letters in the : name of “Fannie
Jackson,” representing herself to he a daughter
of Stonewall Jackson, the rebel General, and
claiming to be in destitute circumstances.
These letters were sent to the rebel bond
holders in Engla nd,hut, the scheme was almost
immediately exposed there. The prisoner,
however, acknowledges, in a letter which,he
wrote to Detective Franklin, giving some ac
count of his operations, that he got two letters
containing .C 5 each in reply to his Jackson
letters. The prisoner is awaiting a hearing be
fore the Mayor. ■
